    Our group patronises this place regularly. This time the ordering procedure took forever. At 12:45 pm I was about 15th in line and it took about 15-20 minutes to be able to order. Too long. Not enough staffed ordering stations this time. Now wondering whether we should favour another restaurant.

    Dear Bernie, Thank you for your feedback and for being a regular patron. We're sorry to hear about the long wait time and the lack of staffed ordering stations during your visit. We'll address this issue to improve our service, and we hope you'll give us another chance to provide a better experience. Many thanks, The Boardwalk Team

    8 of us met together today for lunch to celebrate my husband's 87th birthday. Most of my friends enjoyed their meals. However 2 of us had the prawn and noodle special. What a disappointment! Far too many noodles and they were undercooked. Not good enough Wrest Point. We expect better from you. Priscilla Richardson

    Dear Priscilla, We are deeply sorry that you did not enjoy the Prawn Popper Noodle Salad special. This dish has typically received positive feedback, so we are especially regretful that it did not meet your expectations. We sincerely apologize for any disappointment caused and truly appreciate your feedback. Many thanks, The Boardwalk Team
