Absolutely enjoyed our meal, felt welcome even though we came without a reservation. The dhukka cauliflower and salmon ceviche were excellent, as was the scotch fillet (didn't need the sauces!). Kids menu was also great, the chicken tasted fresh and the salad was on point. Total damage was 223 AUD with 1 main, 2 sides, 2 cocktails and a kids menu. Would love to visit again in future.

Slow service, ok food. Nothing special. Oysters were great, crab pie was ok, venison was served cold but tasty. Kids' steak had too much fat, half was unbeatable, we got a free dessert for that. Rabbit popstickers were very nice. Dessert was ok. We were there for 3 hours because it took forever to get the mains. Seated next to the kitchen door, we heard a lot of noise from the waiters. Most expensive meal we had in Australia, not worth it..

Mudbar is a beautiful place for lunch by the Tamar River with very generous portions, family ambiance and lovely service, particularly by Dylan who went out of his way to recommend travels around Launceston and was very attentive to everybody including us! Absolutely outstanding service. The complimentary fried wontons with the chilli and coriander sauce was a hit (I loved), a bit like a prawn cracker, but did not sit so well in our empty stomachs. The 300g steak and mushrooms was absolutely delicious and I would come back again even just for the mushrooms! The steak was cooked to medium rare, could be more tender, and the jus was alright, possibly too sweet and light. The mushrooms served alongside were so lovely with a delicious garlicy, aromatic sauce. The duck tacos were also a delight, but I reckon would be better paired with a less heavy/thick and more flavourful dipping sauce. On the other hand, the Mudbar lamb was quite underwhelming as the pumpkin puree and breaded lamb was not so stunning, and the beer battered fish lacked any flavour at all. The view of the Tamar was lovely and the environment was super family friendly. We liked this take on asian fusion, and would love to visit again!

Excellent drinks, food and atmosphere. Edit: the chilli cocktails quite nice, but a bit overwhelming on the amount of spiciness. That's coming from someone that likes spicy food. The taste was so nice though. The mango one tasted amazing all around.

Dinner at this place was a little different. A bit of improvement from the floor staff would go a long way — having to wait and look around just to ask for a napkin was slightly frustrating. That said, the gentleman who served us was kind and thorough when explaining the menu. The cocktails and oysters were absolutely delicious! 🍸🦪
