    Love this club! I’ve been coming here regularly for the last 5 years and it never disappoints. Food is fantastic and Adam, Jo and all staff are so friendly and professional and are always happy to provide excellent service. Even for discerning diners like my wife :). Today I had the best fish tacos of my life 👍.

    The staff were friendly. The off course areas were busy with coaching and practice sessions. New concrete cart paths were being constructed and the course was recovering well from heavy rain on previous days. Overall a good experience and one I would recommend

    Attended the venue for an AFL supporters group function. From what I could see, such a wonderful place to eat,enjoy good company and / or play golf. I'm guessing on my next trip north I'll drop by again.

    Plenty of parking, nice environment, reasonably priced and good food. I'd happily go again. Service was good as well. I could only find the breakfast menu on their website. For reference, the parma was about $23.

    Went to a friend's 40th here, good space. Didn't realise it was so popular with so many diners in the restaurant area. Facilities good and clean. Hubby golfs here also, I can see the appeal, plenty of parking. Drinks were not too expensive either.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Emerald Lakes Golf Club and I was thoroughly impressed. Despite it being a busy night, the staff were all friendly and attentive and the service was excellent. The food came out in a timely manner and was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the chicken parmigiana and the eye fillet steak - both were delicious. The chicken was juicy and tender, and the tomato sauce was bursting with flavor. The eye fillet steak was cooked to my liking and had a beautiful sear on the outside. It was tender and flavorful and paired well with the garlic mash and veggies. Overall, I had a fantastic dining experience at Emerald Lakes Golf Club and I would highly recommend it to others. Whether you're a golf enthusiast or just looking for a great meal, this is the place to be. I look forward to returning in the future!

    Absolutely enjoyed playing 18 holes of golf, there as this was my first time to visit. Will definitely return to play golf. Very challenging course 👍🏾

    Birthday lunch with mum and other family members here was great. Food fabulous, the best salt and pepper squid (entree size) I've ever had anywhere. Dessert was a bit lacklustre, but service and venue worth another visit.

    A lovely place to catch up with friends. I attended a work reunion here and it was lovely. Food was amazing, and reasonably priced. My only concern was the access to the outside seating area for disabled and wheelchairs. I had to walk miles from the carport to access the ramp, then there were steps to tackle to get down to the tables. This was far from ideal as it meant someone had to get my drinks and order my meal for me as I can't manage steps with my walker, and I was exhausted after the walk. Otherwise, it really was a lovely place.

    We’ve dined at the clubhouse many times. The food’s usually well cooked and tasty. Good size portions at a reasonable price. But today’s “healthy” salads were a bit disappointing, Way too much dressing and soggy like they’d been made much earlier and left sitting there. So much for the healthy option. Back to the fish n chips and chicken wings next time!

    Great club and fantastic facilities. The course is well configured but slightly disappointing about the dead zones (water areas) need some attention. The native birds were a well distraction due to their beautifulness from a to serious Galloway challenge.

  • 5/5 Shane O. 8 months ago on Google
    Great 19th hole to finish your day and the 2 for 1 palmy on a Wednesday night is a cracker, don't be scared off by the amount of people or the line to order, if your ordering the special 2 for 1 palmy no matter the volume of people I can assure you will receive your palmy with fresh chips and salad in under 10 minutes, a must for all locals and don't miss it if your visiting.

    I had a birthday lunch function with 22 guests. The whole experience was just perfect. The table settings, the privacy, the staff were excellent and the food was delicious. It is my favourite place to meet friends and dine. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend this restaurant.

  • 5/5 MY19RANGER 7 months ago on Google
    The Parmi was delicious. The chicken was still moist and tender while everything was grilled to perfection. No crusty burnt bits. Only wish they had options with flavours as their base is the perfect starting point. Highly recommend.

    It’s great to have night golf on the Gold Coast but the lighting is not well maintained meaning many shots are in the dark. Not night golf like you find in Asia and Middle East.

  • 5/5 Millacent V. 2 years ago on Google
    We booked my mum’s 60th at the outdoor area Emerald Lakes Golf Club. Our event manager Selina was sensational. Her communication was always open and prompt in response. The staff were amazingly attentive and the service was flawless. The food was plentiful for the package we chose and my mum had a great night. Highly recommend Emerald Lakes for any party or event.

    We had dinner last night. The food was excellent I had garlic prawns which were delicious. My husband had fillet steak which he assures me was perfectly cooked medium as requested. Staff as always very attentive and pleasant. We will be back! Andrea

    I highly recommend having an event at Emerald Lakes Golf Club. We held our mum’s wake here on 17 August 2023 and I can’t thank Georgia and the team enough. It all went smoothly and nothing was an issue. The food was great, private balcony and mobile bar was fabulous. Thank you Georgia.

    Shared a nice lunch with a couple of friends. We started inside, in a booth, however the low hanging lights were a bit like sitting in an interrogation, so we moved outside, which was lovely. We started with the seafood chowder, which I enjoyed, however my friend was disappointed as it contained bacon, and she is a pescetarian. Then had one of the specials of the day, which was salmon on an asparagus risotto. This was tasty, however the salmon was a tad over cooked for me. All in all a good lunch in a lovely spot which I would recommend.

    Happy to avail of the discounted mad Monday deal. Registration was smooth and proshop staff so friendly. Since its a deal day there were so many golfers on the course and our play was severely slowed, at least 5 minutes wait to tee off at every hole. Overall, the course was great, greens were superfast, lost a couple of balls to the drink though! Bought a couple of caps for souvenirs.

  • 5/5 Euan B. 1 year ago on Google
    Decided to play18 holes there today but was was a bit unsure of the course quality after hearing a couple of poor reviews. Well, Emerald Lakes didn't disappoint, i couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the Pro shop, restaurant and everyone in between made it a wonderful experience. Fairways, bunkers and greens were immaculate, many other courses around the Coast have bunkers out of play. If your looking for an enjoyable, relaxed round of golf Emerald lakes is the place.

    I enjoyed the drink I had here and the crips were good too.

    Hosted the Wild Earth New Year's Fun Run. It was a great success. They were very accommodating and offered us the practice range to host events.

    Popped in Sunday lunch time for a spur of the moment meal. Lovely lady managed to slot us in to a table with no notice which was amazing! Considering the amount of people there, service was great and comparatively quick... and the meals were great 👍 Club sandwich with a side of pepper sauce was excellent. Yum!

    Beautiful spot, great facilities and super fun (Bravehearts) charity golf day. Highly recommend this venue for a wonderful day out and the professional (yet non-toffy nosed) and friendly team. Golf can be for everyone!

👍👍 Yatala pies are just amazing. I often find myself coming up with a reason to drive down the coast just to get one with their chips and gravy.
