About

The Cassowary is a polarizing spot. Some guests have a fantastic time, praising the fresh seafood and the unique rainforest setting, while others have had poor experiences with service and food quality. It seems to be a place that relies heavily on its location. When it's good, it's great, but when it's off, it can be a real letdown. It's worth a try if you're staying at the lodge, but maybe keep expectations in check.
