Frommer's Review
This cafe, with sweeping views across Lake Burley Griffin to the Australian War Memorial, began life as a fine dining room but has since metamorphosed into a much more casual affair. It's still got the same amazing view, elegant decor, and vaulted ceilings, just with much more affordable prices. The roasted field mushrooms with goat's cheese is a great way to kick-start the day, and the dinnertime options are pretty sophisticated for cafe fare; try the chargrilled duck confit with baked stone fruits and balsamic reduction.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
