This is just a little Cafe inside the Southside Shopping Centre at Berwick. There are only a handful of tables but they serve excellent quality meals. My Chicken Schitzel was delicious and a bargain at $8.50.They also have a wide selection of delicious cakes and muffins. And you get quick table service with huge smiles. Most of the customers appeared to be elderly and were treated very well. Somewhere to take Granny for lunch or afternoon tea!!!

This is a cute little restaurant situated in the centre of Frankston. It is worth noting that it is no longer owned and operated by Japanese people. The owners are an Australian man and his Filipino wife. The food was tasty but for someone who has lived for a long time in Japan the food did not appear to be very authentic. However it was fresh and well presented. The service was cheerful but very slow. We had to wait 45 minutes for our entrees. We had an enjoyable evening but skipped desserts and coffee because of the slow service. We just couldn't wait any longer.Which is a pity because I was very much looking forward to some Green Tea Ice-cream....

A large group of us recently went to the Cuckoo for a night out and had a ball! We had some vouchers that were purchased online so we only had to pay $25 for a fantastic buffet dinner and German Floorshow....There was lots of yoodling and quite a few laughs at our table. A great night out and a wonderful location in the Dandenongs...Highly recommended for that special party !!!

We called in recently for lunch. Our Pizza's were served quickly by a jovial waiter. Our Pizza's and Garlic Bread were really tasty. The decor is really simple and rustic but the food is delicious and the service very attentive. We will definitely be going back again soon.

We purchased a voucher online for a 'High Tea' with Living Social. This lovely little tea shop on the high street in Warburton, far exceeded our expectations. Our lovely hostess Nicki was very welcoming and presented us with three tiers of treats on lovely plates. We enjoyed delicious home made gem scones, dainty chocolates, pretty small cakes and a selection of sandwiches. All of these were served fresh and beautifully presented on old fashioned English bone china. We also enjoyed lovely freshly brewed tea served from a very cute tea pot and with some hot plunger coffee. This little shop also sells a variety of teas. We had a glorious morning drinking tea and nibbling on sandwiches and scones. We will definitely return for more yummy treats on our next visit to Warburton. Highly recommended!

This park is a lovely place to visit on a sunny day. The park is really beautiful and full of fantastic and creative sculptures. And best of all its totally free. There is also a nice art gallery to wander around and entry is by a gold coin donation. The cafe is a great place to visit for a coffee on a cold day. The staff are friendly and the food and coffee are good. Or better still bring a picnic and have your lunch outside!

A small group of us enjoyed pizza's here on a recent Saturday night. Although we turned up without a booking we were quickly shown to a table and our orders promptly taken despite the
restaurant being very busy. We were all very happy with the taste, size and quality of our pizzas. They tasted delicious. We will all be making a return visit very soon.

These are lovely little tearooms located just across the from the river in Warrandyte. We recently enjoyed a lovely breakfast here and were pleasantly surprised at just how delicious the food was. Our eggs were really fresh and tasty and the coffee was great. The service was attentive and very friendly. We will be going back again very soon.

My friend and I purchased some vouchers from the internet. We were very disappointed. The women who did our manicures spoke very little English and was not very friendly. She looked totally bored. The manicure was very quick and the nail polish of a poor quality; within an hour of leaving the salon my nail polish had started to chip. On a more positive note our facials were very nice and relaxing. This is not a salon that I would return to anytime sooon

I really enjoyed my recent visit to the Bear House. I was a part of a group of 10 but we were all served very quickly. And more importantly our food arrived quickly and at the same time. The steaks were wonderful and cooked to perfection. This is an elegant restaurant. Great place to go for an anniversary or special occasion. And all of the staff are just so very nice.
