We shared a Pizza bread, I had the Fettuccine Primavera and a beer she the Spinach Gnocchi and a wine.
The place was packed and we had to wait awhile for our mains but it was fine as the lady serving us was really nice and welcoming, she was flat out but still made the effort to come and see us and let us know there will be a wait. The serving sizes were generous and I got so full I couldn't finish mine. I have to say her Gnocchi tasted better than my Fettuccine. We had a win with the price as the lady serving us was so busy she forgot to add the Pizza bread to our bill.

We've just moved within a 5 minute drive to this place, and always heard good things, so popped down last night.
Walked in to be greeted by a very friendly guy (think he was the manager). He directed us to a quiet table in the back, away from the rowdy retirees who had congregated at the tables closest to the salad bar.
As we walked past, another friendly lady stopped us near the specials board and went through them all for us.
It was schnitzel night, so I got a chicken schnitzel with garlic prawn sauce. Thick moist schnitzel, thick sauce and about six or seven big prawns on top. The chips were a bit crispy, but still good. The salad bar was ok. No potato bake, so I got a couple of roast potatos and some pasta salad. The salad was a bit bland, but I just thought that was by design for the older clientele.
Mrs HH3 got the salt and pepper squid. She seemed to enjoy it. There was enough on her plate for her to have to leave some at the end.
I got a Sailor Jerry and coke, with a slice of lime. The Mrs got a Coopers Sparkling. (calm down rowdy).
Half way through my meal, the girl who served me came over and put three dollars down on the table. She explained that she had accidentally overcharged me for my schintzel (the sauce price had gone down). Great honesty.
A nearby table started to fill up with quite a noisy family so we didn't hang around after we finished eating.
After the meal, we went through the pokies for $3 of fun....nothing.
COST
Two meals, two drinks - $58 - $3 = $55.

Years ago (like around 12) they did a Mixed Grill for about $12 that was seriously brilliant.

The only pub I've been to lately that was better than the Seaton was the Admiral.

Yeah I was about to say the same thing. Flathead is always smaller pieces. One of the best tasting fish out there.

It certainly tasted delicious.
