Very standard in terms of Japanese food but very yummy. My favs are the teriyaki or chicken katsu sushi, I don't eat seafood so I like that these are strong seafood smelling. I also get the chicken katsu in a bowl set which they make when you order. It is a bit oily but that's what you get when you order a deep friend chicken dish I guess. It's $6.50 for sushi (well the ones I get) which is 6 pieces and enough to fill me up for lunch. They also do other bento sets etc but I have never ordered one of them. Teriyaki chicken and others can be purchased pre-made as well. I do eat here over and over again, I went from getting the Katsu bowl dish to mainly just the sushi now as I find the sushi more filling and less heavy

I have only eaten here twice, it's a pretty standard shopping centre chinese food place with stir-frys, noodles, rice, spring rolls, sweet & sour pork, lemon chicken and so on. The piles are mounded high and you sometimes wonder how long it's been sitting there but the place seems quite busy and the food tasted and looked fresh enough when I had it. My dad piled his plate and they didn't bat an eye-lid so they don't mind big servings, I think there was only a limit on one thing (spring rolls or chicken wings or something). The other time I got a laksa made as they also do meals to order, the laksa was lovely, decent amount of ingredients in it not just the soup, I would get it again if I felt like a laksa and didn't want to make it, i got chicken as I don't like seafood and the soup didn't have a strong seafood taste like some can

Being my local shopping centre I do go here quite often. My favourite dish is the potato one, I can't remember what it's called but it's basically potatoes in spices and it's really yummy, just a shame that it's not always available as it's obviously one of the ones they 'change-up.' They also have regulars like butter chicken, rogan josh and vindaloo, they normally have all meats as well (chicken, lamb and beef). I have always enjoyed their food, I think it's good quality for shopping centre take-away and very large packed serves. I normally get 1 meat and 2 vege plus rice and sometimes a bit of garlic naan (sometimes garlic is very very strong!) or an onion bhaji. The gentlemen that serve are always nice and polite and like I said, they don't skimp on the serving size. If I remember correctly 1 meat and 2 vege is around $9 but more meat is up around $12 I think. Sorry I do go often but don't really look at the price as I buy it regardless

There is a lady who works here, I think she is the owner, and she is so lovely. I find bloom a bit more expensive than some other flower places BUT their flowers and service have never let me down. Sometimes I have asked for special requests such as delivery within a few hours and they have always come through for me. I often ask for special ones to be made up based on colour (ie my mum loves blue but hates red) and again I have never had an issue, I just tell them I want to spend $65 (for example) inc delivery and the colours I want. This suits me as I don't have to then pick from a shelf and so on. They also do lovely baby shower type gifts, I have only ever for 1 for a friend but she loved it. Highly recommend this company

This place is a nice alternative to the main foodcourt in Gateways. I have the salt and pepper chicken (take-away) and it was cooked fresh to order and tasted really nice, not too oily and a decent lunch size serving. I didn't really like the look of their pre-made food but as I haven't tried it I can't really pass judgement (however from the look I wouldn't try it - if that makes sense). The service was ok, would be nice to see a smile rather than just 'all business' but the food is good so I'd eat there again

This company has helped me a few times. Firstly when my car imobiliser broke & I couldn't get home boo hoo! They didn't have the right solder to do the job properly but were able to provide me with a temporary fix which at least got me home and they didn't even charge me for it! They have also cut keys for me with no issues (other places I have been to sometimes the keys don't work & I have had to get them re-cut) and also with engraving for my puppy's ID tags etc. I always find them helpful, prices are good and they don't take long to do things at all. You can normally drop stuff off at the beginning of a shop and then pick it up on your way out

Lovely food at cheap prices, love their agadeshi tofu and bento boxes. Hubby says their sashimi is really good and their sushi is fresh (I don't eat seafood so can't comment on those ones!)

I am not so sure about this place, every time we have been the restaurant is dead empty - maybe they do lots of takeaway? The restaurant has such old decor, uncomfortable seats etc. The food was not very nice. I ordered the tofu and it was like eating sludge. They have all your traditional chinese meals but I don't know, they just don't taste as good. Just small things like the glass they gave me to drink out of had marks on it, got a can of coke and it wasn't that cold and then had to ask for ice. We get take-away sometimes but really only is we are desperate now.

I go here for lunch and dinner and have never had a bad experience, it's cheap and yummy. I have tried so many meals from lamb rogan josh, butter chicken, chicken korma, naan breads etc. It's hard to pic a fav as it depends what I feel like at the time, probably chicken korma as I love spicey food. Meals are big and often I have lunch for the next day too - with rice

Went here back towards the beginning of the year for the pasta night special. The pasta was really nice and meals were great size. We had a look at the normal menu and it looked a bit pricey but it is a tourist town. Based on the meal we had it's great value (ie pasta night), not sure if they still do it or not but if you're in Broome and they still do it I'd certainly recommend going. From memory it cost us abour $15 per pasta dish
