Il Borgo pizza is one of the best in Melbourne.
Great list of toppings and lots of variety. They also do not just pile it on with soggy results like I see at so many places.
Service could be improved but it is adequate.
Favorites include the Gorgonzola, the Pumpkin (has yummy hot salami w/ the sweet pumpkin), and the Contadina (i ask for mushrooms added to that one for an extra earthy flavour).
If you get it to take away, ask them not to cut it. The crust will stay much nicer on the trip home.

This review is for Marmara Restaurant, Windsor VIC

The meat here is marinated and cooked to perfection.
Their dips and bread are also a great accompaniment.
My husband loves the mixed grill and I usually just stick with the succulent shish kebab.
The main courses come with a pretty weak salad and a small pile of rice but the meat is so good we overlook that.
They also deliver or you can take it away. Another great little neighbourhood spot in Windsor.

Approximate cost: $18

Love the food here. It's very fresh and tasty. The serves are generous. They have the usual selections but also some that are different from every other Thai restaurant.
The service is friendly and considerate.
We eat in, get take away and also have it delivered. Probably my favorite Thai restaurant in Melbourne.
I like their Ginger Fish and/or Tamarind Fish. Basil Stir-Fry w/minced chicken and Duck Curry are faves, too.
The food is really great and the staff make you feel so welcome.
P.S. there is a great little bottle shop next door for BYO.

Approximate cost: $15

Great burritos but you must try the street tacos with pork. They are my absolute favorite item here.
Chips and salsa...yum.
Now, after talking about it I know where I'll be going tomorrow. Hasta manana!
