    The food was amazing. 2hours in the karaoke room was killer. It was a surprise birthday event for my partner and his mates and everyone is still raving about the night. Lovely service will be back to just dine in and too book the karaoke room for myself. When outside the room the sound proofing is top level could not hear anything. Best idea I've ever had

    We ate at The Vine Room twice on our visit to Cairns. Both times, the food and service were excellent. The prawn risotto is amazing, and so is the barramundi. Perfect to share. On our second visit, we ordered 3 small plates and enjoyed wine and a great view. I highly recommend The Vine Room!

    Palooka will always be our only preference for a date night location; we live 70km away, and it’s worth it everytime; is it cheap, it’s not, but we are yet to have a bad experience on any level. They have a squid special at the moment which needs to be a regular item.
