The Box on the Water

Best Known For

Berkshire pork belly, apple and fennel slaw, baba ghanoush and sour cherries.

Ettalong locals flock to The Box on the Water restaurant and lounge bar for absolute waterfront dining in contemporary style, found ocean-side of The Esplanade at recently redeveloped Ettalong foreshore. In all weather, soak up panoramic views across soft sand and sheltered bay waters dining at a leisurely pace, seated underneath lush fern fronds hanging from the ceiling in black pots, while surrounded by a smart casual environment reflective of nature outside. Fat Poppy coffee, craft beer, cocktails and antipasto share plates are just a few items that can be enjoyed, before mains of fresh seafood and succulent meats. Opt for beetroot cured kingfish, lime, cucumber, jalapeno, nasturtium and miso emulsion; followed by eye fillet, shoestring fries, roasted cherry tomato and béarnaise sauce.
