  Stunning food in a stunning location. What more could you ask for??? Stanley is a simply beautiful seaside village, and Xanders delivers food options of an exceptional standard to match the ambience of this historic town. Highly recommended.

  table service was very good - so was the location - entree - we had seafood kabab - it was excellent. a dozen oysters - natural, tempura, & Kilpatrick - except it wasn't kilpatrick - it had bbq sauce and red diced capsican . - which provided a interesting yet odd taste. The disappointment was the steak - first they had two choices, make that one - they were out of steak on the bone ( 7pm on Saturday night) so I ordered the other rib eye 7 veges. Just prior to serving, waitress advised they were out of potatoes - however they would do fat cut chips cooked in duck fat. sounded good. What turned up was 4 chips that looked like they had come out of a frozen pack and were soggy. the vegetables accompanying were terrible, overcooked carrots and 3 stalks of brocolli - the disappointment was the steak - whilst it was cooked perfectly - the chef had drowned it in salt - and thats all i could taste. I tried cutting the outside off to no avail. this was $46 . - they gave a $10 discount - when clearly 90% of the steak left and none of the vegetables eaten. the fish my wife had was very good. i suppose it was partly my fault for not calling staff over, as soon as possible, However - if the chef tried to fix - my wife would have been waiting for me to receive and finish new meal. I should have taken a photo of the steak - the presentation could have been a lot better.

  the restaurant should not have charged for this meal . - the bill was still over $200 for 2 people. i just got the impression that its about the money becuase we could hear the head waitress talking about the cost of staff.

  Very, very nice but also expensive, had lovely resotto, nice creme brulee and excellent chef's bread (ours had steak, bit like a high class pizza) Check out the local pub too.
