    We had our 34th wedding anniversary dinner at Gather as we were staying at Rydges and didn't want to drive anywhere on the night. We were really impressed with the quality of the food. We had the cured trout with citrus for entree and the serving was very generous and it was an explosion of flavour, really delicious. The steak for main was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. One of our sides didnt come out until we had nearly finished our steak but they apologised and didnt charge us. We also received a complimentary dessert as it was our anniversary which was very unexpected and also delicious. The restaurant is huge and is used for their buffet breakfast each morning, but it had a nice ambience, we were at the window overlooking the sunset and the pool. There was a mixture of families with children, groups of adults as well as couples but it was not noisy or raucous at all. The service was attentive and the cocktails were also good. It was a really lovely pleasant dining experience.
