The Drinks
The Wine list here is just amazing, Pages and pages. A wine for everyone, White, Reds, Roses & Sparklings. Along with the Spirit and Cocktail offering it was just great.
We started the night with Cocktails from their signature list. The Port office Fizz, Consisting of Vodka, Aperol, Passionfruit and Lemon & The Pavlova on the Park which had Ketel One Vodka, butterscotch liqueur, Licor 43, Passionfruit and egg whites. They were both so yummy and a great way to start the night. ‘
After finishing those it was time to switch to wine and as it was my birthday I opted for a bottle of my Favourite red a Cabernet Sauvignon from the Barossa Valley Langmeil ‘Blacksmith’. It was just perfect a subtle smokey hint and a great choice to go with the Beef.
The Food
To start the Menu looked great and as it was a special occasion for my birthday we opted for ‘The Moo Moo Signature’. This did take an hour to cook but that was just fine as we were not too hungry on arrival. We decided to just have some bread rolls as an entre as room for dessert was needed. The Red tomato salsa was so delicious, it just exploded in the mouth.
The Food arrived and we honestly thought we had made an error as it was so much for 2 people. Consisting of 1kg of Wagu Rump steak with the chefs special seasoning cooked to a perfect medium rare. On the side some duck fat potatoes and a rocket salad and a trio of sauces. The Beef just melted in the mouth perfectly and we cleared the plates it was the most tenderly cooked beef I have eaten in Australia and well I have eaten a lot of steak and beef.
It was time to look at desserts and there was no way that we were not leaving without them. I Opted for the Rhubarb & Green Apple Pie, Yoghurt Ice Cream + Apple & Clove Gel. OMG, it was so delicious light and fresh, the perfect way to end the meal.
Matt went for the Hot Fudge Sundae ‘Moo Moo’ style – rich chocolate brownie topped with vanilla bean ice cream lashed with hot fudge + finished with house-made crunchy honeycomb. Another great dessert, however, the honeycomb was too tough to eat and it had to be picked up to eat it and became a little messy but that was honestly the only critique.
The Service
We were greeted at the door and was given the perfect corner table so we both have comfortable seating for the meal. Our Waiter was amazing form the moment of arrival to when we left and we had a nice chat with him too. Glasses of all water wine and cocktails were constantly filled up and we were checked on several times during the meal. It was such good service so thank you.
The Overall
The Food, Drinks, and service were pretty much perfect from the moment of arrival to when we finished the meal. The Quality of the Food along with service made our experience at Moo Moo’s very pleasant and it was a great place to spend my birthday evening and I would call this a place of fine dining which there is not much of on the Gold Coast. We will both be back for sure to try out some of the other dishes on the menu.
