The service and quality of the food is out of this world!! I would suggest this for a lunch date or early evening meal before a show. The King George lightly battered is divine, as with all of it's dishes it is a delight to the taste-buds.
Approximate cost: $6-$13
The bistro forms the middle rung of this culinary ladder, offering an a la carte alternative to the cafe's jaffles and gourmet lunchboxes, while still staying joyfully accessible for an everyday meal.
Approximate cost: $20-$38
This restaurant claims its chef used to cook for Chairman Mao Zedong and is definitely not shy about it with photos, portraits and even a golden bust representing China's former communist party leader. The food at Mao was impressive. It tasted good, was presented well and you could tell the ingredients were fresh.
Approximate cost: $14-$24
Great little coffee bar, but don't expect much from the cuisine. The coffee is fantastic - excellent spot for a quick Saturday breakfast; when a flat white and a muffin will do...
Approximate cost: $12
Great location, staff and venue - but the food and clientele are in serious need of an improvement. Noisy, half-dressed, desperate women lounge around for a piece of action, mar the beautiful views and aura.

The pizza here is to die for, the crust is perfectly crispy and thin. I have had just about every kind of pizza on the menu and not a complaint yet! The atmosphere is lovely rustic style, perfect for a casual summer date.

Fantastic lunch spot - I come here just about every week. It's a friendly atmosphere and the staff are lovely. The food is excellent, real italian fare; it reminds me of home.

Great pub for watching the rugby and during the races. The cuisine is traditional pub fare and quite disappointing, but the drinks are very affordable and the service is excellent... 2 outta 3 isn't bad. It certainly is not a place to take your date.
Approximate cost: $20
Great food - the staff and crowd is a bit pretentious, but if you can stand it, go for a bite to eat. The food is very good - there is an open patio out the back that is really great in the summer months.

Great Chapel St bar... I had expected just to go for drinks and ended up eating dinner there because the entrees were fantastic. I am definitely going to go back for the food.
