It sits at the centre of the former Kingdom of Persia, one of the world’s oldest continuous major civilisations. Iran forms a bridge between the Middle East and the Far East in the centre of the ancient Silk Road, a major trading route which goes back tens of thousands of years. Persian cuisine has influenced many world cuisines, and has absorbed elements from other cuisines as well. It's no surprise that Persian ingredients such as saffron, pomegranate have made their way into other cuisines! As ancient traders took their wares to the corners of the world, they traded goods, bringing back the eating habits and ingredients from Greece, Rome, Turkey, Russia and India. Today's Persian cuisine traces its roots to ancient Persian ingredients and recipes.

    My wife and I had a fantastic dinner at Clifford’s Grill & Lounge. We both ordered the 200g Black Angus Eye Fillet—cooked à la plancha with thyme and garlic butter, served alongside truffle mash, roasted field mushroom, broccolini, kale, and house jus. The steak was remarkably tender and cooked to perfection, and every accompanying component was delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the evening, and the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere made for a lovely night out. Highly recommended!

    Thoroughly enjoyed our buffet dinner at Waves Restaurant - Voco in Surfers. We had a group of 13 including young children to celebrate our son’s 40th. Very friendly & accommodating staff & a great variety of food for all ages. Everything was so fresh & buffet was refreshed throughout the night. Good value too & particularly that under 5yrs eat free 👍.

    The food was very good. More than expected for the first visit. The best thing about the visit was the service girl. She was amazing with our order for 15 people. She brought the food out and checked on us. Her friendliness made the while visit worth it.
