A recent change in ownership has seen things improve big time. The outdoor are has been improved with better seating and lighting and they now cater better for weddings. A lovely setting for photography and meals are great, maybe a little on the high side but well cooked. Friendly and welcoming.

I can only vouch for the fixed-price dinner enjoyed last Saturday Night. On other nights besides Saturday I believe the Steak Barn has an a-la-carte menu that offers a variety of dishes including chicken, lamb, pork, beef and seafood.

I'd been travelling through Casino and the Northern Rivers region of NSW, and thought the hospitality shown by hosts Barry and Lorna was real friendly! To me the fixed-price dinner was really good value. I ordered the Rump Steak as the main dish ... it was a large steak and it tasted great! You need not order the Rump as there were other varieties of steak and main dishes available (eg. chicken).

As well as the main dish, the fixed-price dinner included a plate of pre-dinner nibbles, choices from a large salad / vegetable bar, and choices from a big range of mouth-watering desserts. There was plenty to eat.

There was also this terrific performer who played what I call easy country music. He played the type of live guitar country songs that you can toe-tap and dance the night away.

A great meal and a great night!
