This place was recommend to us by staff where we were staying at the Daintree Eco Lodge &Spa. We were not disappointed. We had the chicken burritos which were absolutely delicious. Fresh, tasty ,jam packed with flavour, and the burritos had been char grilled to perfection. The owner was friendly and made special efforts to keep some nearby young children happy while the parents finished their meal. She set them up with a game that was so much fun we all enjoyed watching it unfold. Staff were professional , friendly and returned to the table to ensure we were happy with our meal. I also enjoyed reading the story of how the family established the business. A very relaxing and tranquil place to enjoy a meal.

We found by chance - only a little road sign alerted us to take a look. Well worth it. Great staff and beautiful meal - local wild barramundi
Enjoyed a house made lemon lime bitters which was refreshing
Would recommend

We were late arriving at our accommodations. Our hostess recommended Whet, which was a short walk down the road. It's a little rustic, set in the rain forrest, and we weren't quite sure what to expect, but the food, service and atmosphere were superb. The barramundi was perfectly grilled and all the accompaniments were delicious. Perhaps it was just that our expectations were exceeded, and maybe the fact that the restaurant is in the middle of almost nowhere, but it was truly one of the very best meals we had in Australia.

We stopped by for a late lunch as it was recommended by our hotel (Silky Oaks lodge). I had a fantastic fresh tuna nicoise salad and my partner had yummy fish and chips. The staff were very funny and friendly. The setting was so so but overall was a good place for lunch.

It hasnt been formally awarded the trophy for Australias best chicken parmy. But i recon its time to clear a spot in the pool room, because these guys are a shoe in for this years Parmy Awards. Not to mention its the ONLY place in town doing goldies on tap. Nice one Whet. Keep up the good work
