Often get the milkshakes and occassionally a ham and cheese muffin. The staff are friendly and helpful. While the milkshakes are pretty good, they can sometimes be lacking in flavour, the coffee isnt to my liking and the hot chocolates can often be too strong. Have had pastas from here and along with the bacon and egg muffin they are pretty good. AS others have mentioned the strong smell does tend to get in your clothes, so best you make use of the heaters and sit outside. Still good food so if you are up for some of that type of food give it a go

One of my favourites when I lived here, we would always head to this end of Burke Road rather than the more poplulated shopping/cafe strip. I love their curries and their pad thai.
Their version of prawn crackers are awesome with a satay sauce (not the usual pinky ones) . A little over average price but still good value.
My favourite would be chicken and cashews, pad thai and green curry! Yummo

Approximate cost: $20

I usually go to another Thai place up the road, but one day noticed this one as a new one. The staff were friendly and helpful, service was quick and the food was tasty.
About the same price as most Thai restaurants but still I never mind paying for quality and this is definitely good quality. The pad thai is as traditional as you can get ( I have eaten in Thailand) and the green curry is also good.

The value for money should be 7 out of 5! One of the cheapest yet best tasting Thai I have ever eaten, it is definitely value for money.
Basic tables and decor but this is no way to judge the quality of the food. I have had a few different types of noodles as well as a couple of the entrees and they are always very tasty and yum. They also ask how spicy you want it - I say medium as their version of "hot" differs, and I can handle heat and I often find that medium is the best option for me.
The Tom Yum soup is always a winner as well. Well and truly one of the best especially for the cheap prices!

Approximate cost: $10

I used to frequent this Thai place all the time when I lived in the area. The food was always tasty and very flavoursome. Very friendly staff and reasonably quick service. Have never had an issue with anything and always tended to re visit. Great value. The entrees, noodles and curries are all one of the best.

I have gone here to get flowers on a few occassions. They always have beautiful arrangements and the staff are friendly, and very helpful and you can tell the passion they have for their work. I would definitely recommend them and although I havent used them for weddings, these look superb too!

This is one of my favourite lunch spots. I often have either the vegie wrap or the lamb or beef one. They also have sandwhiches/naguettes or foccacias, and if the delicious wraps I have had they would also be great. The cost is about $10 for a wrap or the like, but the taste makes it worthwhile

Definitely a must try.

Have been here a couple of times for dinner and a few more times for drinks. It always seems to be very busy, yet the service is pretty quick, have had the nachos which were huge and then shared pizzas which were yummy and satisfying, one pizza is the right serving size for one person. The entertainment is also very good when they have a singer.
The food is reasonably priced for what you get, I think the nachos were about $12 but I couldnt finish them - as tempting as it was!

Approximate cost: $12

This place has great food, my favourite being the Pad Thai, which I tend to go back for. There are only a few noodle options, but this is better sometimes as easier to decide. The staff are very friendly and service is reasonably quick. Your general value for money and competitive with the other Thai restaurants in the area. Was attracted to it when first moved to the area due to the amount of people inside and tend to just keep going back again and again, and I love Thai

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Mexicali Rose, Richmond VIC

Everything you get here is fantastic and the best Mexican I have had (granted I haven't tried many, but this one still is AMAZING) Whether it be the Quasidillas. Fajitas or Taquitos.

Plenty of flavour, very filling and just delicious
Service is quite good and fast and pricing reasonable.
Very good value and one of my fav restaurants of all time
