Char Restaurant

The only issue I had the entire night was the heat inside, which is understandable in Darwin during the wet season. Other than that we loved everything and would highly recommend.

All the staff were so friendly and the atmosphere was amazing and perfwct for my romantic date.

Wonderful venue with a wine list to applaud & very friendly service

Each person enjoyed their meal flavours but really the portion sizes could be a bit bigger. The ravioli was quite small in serving. The steak with lentils needed something like a bed of mash. The risotto could have been slightly larger. Steaks were really nice but the potato bake lacked richness. Can’t believe the banoffee pie is off the menu, it was the main reason I chose the restaurant for my birthday dinner. Sticky date just could not match it.

Fabulous last night experience. Fined twice at Char during our seven day visit. Excellent both times. Highly recommend.

Best fresh snapper and barramundi we have ever tasted. Home made wagyu spring rolls super tasty. Ambience. Views. Great service.

The food was amazing and the best we have had in darwin!

Nicholas's service was outstanding. He was very professional friendly and efficient. The fish of the day was superb, beautifully presented and delicious. The recommended wine complimented this gorgeous meal. great ambience .

Char was highly recommend to us by good friends. Unfortunately, out experience was not that great. While the steak was excellent, the ravioli was over- salted and the 2 X risottos were cold and had to be returned to be re-done. While the waitstaff were outwardly friendly, they were rather supercilious in their attitude. We also told them when booking that we were there for a special occasion and this was ignored. This is not a cheap restaurant and we specifically chose Char on recommendation to celebrate a special occasion and that it did not live up to its promise is disappointing.

Great atmosphere, book an outside table.

Nice to see 2 Sparkling Shiraz options

A beautiful location with professional service and nicely presented food. However, for the price, the food was quite underwhelming. The scallop entree did not work with vanilla (though they scallops were cooked beautifully), the octopus with warm potato salad was not warm at all - again, cooked beatifully but lacked flavour. The steaks were flavoursome and cooked to perfection but the accompanying dauphinoise tasted like pure nutmeg and the red wine jus was runny and bland. It was OK - but honestly, The Cav & Telegraph (Mantra) offer better value, size and flavour.

Overall very satisfied

Great restaurant, but expensive.

Beautiful view of sunset, good food

Terrible service Very ordinary food

What a major disappointment, group of friends meeting for the last time for a long time to be greeted with a pre booked table not ready. The fish meals some were good, others barely cooked and one raw. The replacement was sent out way after we had all finished to find the replacement fish raw again. The wine list ridiculously over priced. COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTING ??

Food is average, position and setting is great. Its ok to charge 300% markup for wine is the food quality is there however it isn't. Would not recommend

Eftpos machine wasn't working $200 bill luckily we had cash

Had a difficult time with booking, having to confirm & reconfirm via email, phone, then when I called to arrange so wine, they couldn't find our booking. Service was excellent, my steak was cold, my wife enjoyed her barra. Did not enjoy the art in rest rooms (male & female), too toxic male for 2019. I guess that is the theme tho with references to masculine cocktails and the restaurant being where the power deals are done in Darwin. Bit of a "Wolf of Wall Street" theme going on.
