Food with a View

The Views restaurant and bar at The Grampians motel in Halls Gap is a gem. The food is delicious and the hosts were very hospitable.  We ordered the tomato and bacon soup, grilled fish, eye fillets and a scotch fillet. Soup was super tasty with a good portion of bacon bits that went very well with the soup. The grilled fish was perfectly cooked. It was topped with a white creamy seafood sauce that complemented the fish well. The steaks were beautifully cooked to order and came with a side of mashed potatoes and pumpkin.  The highlight of the restaurant,  in my opinion,  is the kangaroo fillet ($34).  Cooked medium rare, it was tender and moist.
Their desserts are fairly good. I had the apple and raspberry crumble which had a nice tang but would have preferred the apples to be softer and the overall to be more moist.  The special banoffee with meringue was very good, just like eating a parfait. The sticky date pudding was a highlight as it was sweet and moist complemented well with vanilla ice cream.
I would visit the restaurant again when I go to Halls Gap.
