   Very disappointing. No longer the lovely Sunday afternoon ambiance we had experienced on previous visits when it was Hamilton’s. Whilst the staff were mostly friendly & courteous, the menu has changed and a fish burger with supermarket style crumbed fillets and a processed slice of cheese, plus undercooked vegetables, was not the standard. (We understand al dente, but this was not.) However the rainbow trout was very good.

   The fish and Oysters were great, the carpet bagger was good and I had issues with my steak… over done twice. The vegetables were great sad was desert.

   This was another great meal, all three courses. I’ve tried a number of items on the menu and all were excellent, but I really can’t go past the cold oyster tasting plate - six different toppings on beautiful local oysters. Each time I’ve been there the server asked which was our favourite, and each time we couldn’t decide, they were all delicious.

   Limited menu I thought for lunch choices, however when it’s so delicious and 1 of the best meals we have had out in a long time then understandable, keep it limited but do very well.

   Our party of six enjoyed the cold oyster tasting plate, linguine, Manning Valley steak, barramundi and the special Carpetbag Steak (which was the best steak I’ve ever eaten in a restaurant!). All of the meals were delicious and beautifully presented, the view is lovely and the service was excellent. We all agreed that although the prices were high it was worth it for such a great dining experience - 33 Degrees will be our first choice for special occasions.

    The last visit to 33 degrees was excellent but we were disappointed with the menu and the quality of the meals this time . There was no explanation of the menu nor chef specials offered . With such a fabulous setting we expected fine dining and expert waiters . The battered fish was bland and showed evidence of being frozen . Unfortunately presentation was not up to standard.

    Disappointing service, slow and the service attendant was dull. The food was not very hot, which was disappointing and the steak was not to order. However the oysters were perfect! And a lovely variety of toppings… well done.

    33 Degrees is truly a gem in the Forster-Tuncurry restaurant scene, so please don't be mislead by any negative reviews you might read. My wife and I were visiting Forster-Tuncurry and we lucked-in when we chose to dine here. We shared a mixed plate of oysters as a starter, followed by the cured salmon, scallop and octopus dishes from the entree list, plus a mixed green salad. Every dish was outstanding, and the service we received impeccable. We also enjoyed an excellent pinot gris from the Hilltops wine region, which had been recommended by our wait person. We have eaten in some great restaurants over the years, and in our view, 33 Degrees is right up there with the best of them.

    Had lunch there yesterday afternoon. We were offered a table of 4 either at the outside back without any view, or a table inside in the middle of the entrance - mind you only one other table was occupied at noon. I had the aged steak (medium rare) with some green vege. The streak was a bit chewy with not much taste. The green vege was chewy. My friend had the Clams stir fry with XO source and was chewy as well. Overall disappointed experience.

    First visit since the change of ownership. One couple for lunch. Limited but enjoyable menu, lovely wine menu. Oysters are delicious, although the warm Japanese mornay type option was a little over-salty, charging a bit too much for local oysters. Lovely to have the main of Linguine with bug meat offered as entree size, however, not much bug meat, although delicious. Service cannot be faulted, friendly and efficient, courteous and thoughtful staff. Generous glass of wine.

    Lovely place. Good service. Good food. The wine list needs attention; it is possible to buy less coarse wine and still make good margins at the current wine list prices. Tried pinot grigio, temperanillo and shiraz.

    Great renovation of the old Hamiltons. The food is high quality with a smaller menu focussing on local fresh produce. Priced fairly and wine list is decent and not crazy expensive. Service was professional, welcoming and made one want yo come back. Quickly will establish itself as one of the best in town. Highly recommend.

    We were regulars at Hamiltons, this was our first time since it changed hands. The previous standard was at least met, maybe exceeded. Service was excellent (even before I realised one of the wait staff was an ex student from a town six hours away!) Food was exceptional. Every course was delicious, but in picking something to recommend, I can’t go past the cold oyster tasting plate. Sorry, no photos of that, we had eaten most of them before I thought of it. And of course, the view of the lake - eating right next to the water always adds that bit more value and the enjoyment to the meal.

    We have not been to 33 Degrees for 12 months and love the new decor, menu and standard of service received. Carly is an exceptional employee providing amazing service, very attentive, smart, funny and very cordial in the manner she handles her customers! If I had a restaurant or business I would steal her!! I had oysters that were very tasty but not as large as I might have wanted. Pricing was excellent, however. I had the John Dory and found the two pieces were over cooked, The crumbed batter was a dark colour that indicates too much cooking! Pity! Will certainly be back as we plan to go to Forster on a regular basis from Port Macquarie for short breaks. A great experience nonetheless! Thanks Carly! Paul & Di and Nicole
