"This letter is to let you know how pleased I was with my function. Over the past 12 months I was able to know you and your staff at Evergreen because as you know, the venue is a favourite lunch spot of mine. Because your service, quality and presentation of food has always been exceptional, I felt confident to have my special night with you. I am not the easiest person to satisfy, I do have an eye for detail and always want to feel that “I am getting what I paid for”. The expectations I had for my party were exceeded, this is rare for me.

My guests are still phoning to say how much they enjoyed the evening. The food was delicious, the presentation of the venue was lovely and the service and attention to detail by your manager and staff was nothing less than outstanding. Thank-you so much for making my night such a wonderful success. Both John and I appreciated all the extra effort you made to ensure my birthday was so memorable. John & I would not hesitate to recommend your venue to others. We wish you and your staff continued success."

Thank you for the great atmosphere, delicious food & excellent service! I travel around the coast quite a bit and always try and plan my trips to be close to Evergreen around lunchtime! You deserve all the awards you can get!"

"A big thank you to the amazing staff at Evergreen Restaurant. I have attended a few high tea party's before but this one was outstanding. The food, the service and the tea were delightful. Many thanks."
- Ann-Marie & Guests

"I was looking for somewhere to catch up with my best friend . One of my other friends suggested your place. I was 'blown away' by the surroundings and the friendliness of the staff. The coffee was made just right and the selection of 'wicked' cakes made it difficult to choose. I'm so glad I found you. I will definitely be passing your name on to all of my friends. I will be back. Thanks".

"My wife and I have been happily married for 20 years and still say the best day of our lives was our wedding day. So,this year we decided to Renew our Vows and our committment to one another. We searched for a venue that was similar in design to the one we got married in all those years ago in Bali. Then we found Evergreen Pavilion Restaurant. It was exactly what we were looking for, and it was right here in Surfer's Paradise. The staff of Evergreen were so helpful in planning our second 'big day'. Everyone who attended commented on the surroundings, the excellent food and the friendliness of the staff. Thank you Evergreen, we could not have asked for a more perfect day"

We would especially like to make a special mention to Lisa who was always friendly and helpful the whole way through. And the food............DELICIOUS!!

"As you know I was visiting Evergreen Restaurant for business lunches occasionally for a couple of years simply due to its convenient location to my office. However, after the Restaurant was taken over by you two my reason for dining there moved from convenience of location to the excellent food, staff and atmosphere. John and Lisa, you have turned what was once a quaint bistro style cafe into a world class restaurant and functions centre.

From the moment I arrive I feel like a true guest. An always friendly smile and greeting from the manager, Megan, signals the start of what is always an enjoyable experience. The staff are always full of energy and it never ceases to amaze me how they all remember my name, my favourite drink and where I like to sit. I know this always impresses any business associate I am with.

The chefs in the kitchen, ably led by Tim and supported by Peter will make any adjustments you may want to make to a meal without a question and the food on the menu is always clever and rewarding.

Finally, you two are “true hosts”. I honestly feel like I am visiting a friend’s house. I no longer work from the office that was conveniently located near the Evergreen Restaurant. In fact my new office is a twenty minute drive away. But I now visit Evergreen Restaurant more than I ever did!

From great breakfasts, to fantastic lunches and finally a magical function for my mother’s 80th birthday, Evergreen Restaurant is my office away from the office.

You two and your team deserve every accolade you receive."
