Play Pokies at Emerald Hotel & Smokehouse in Emerald

Very bad food. No knocks on the chef but clearly a Hells Kitchen feel. Firstly I ordered the rump with garlic prawn toppers. Well the prawns should be fresh yet they gave me crumbed prawn cutlets out of a box from Coles. The garlic sauce was so thick you could tell it was in a bottle. Rump was okay could of had fat trimmed off. My friend ordered same basically but got the mushroom gravy sauce. Well he got 1 mushroom and the gravy, yep was powder gravy made up can tell straight away. Seems owners have cost cutting too a T and the poor Chef knows what he serves isn\'t right but can\'t do anything my guess. Would definitely stay away and go somewhere else for a feed. Also the lady that served us could barely understand my English and couldn\'t understand what Garlic Bread was.

Husband had crumbed steak and vegetables and he left it , it was disgusting . And who serves sausages on a tray

Looks amazing tasted woeful. Sorry guys you dropped the ball today. And yes I did let the staff know. Hopefully it was just a bad day in the kitchen.

If ever in Emerald this is the place to eat. The smoked Pork Ribs & Lamb Shoulder were some of the best we\'ve had. Might not look much inside but certainly worth the feed.

I eat there yesterday with my girlfriend.
It\'s such a nice place to eat there, with a really great beer garden with some light.
The bartender was really gentle and do a really good cocktail.
What about the food, so good! We order a mexican parmi for her parmi day on the advice of the chef it was excellent, cheap and really fast with a really generous portion.
For me, its my favorite restaurant in the town !
I will come back again for sure.
