Very fresh and tasty food. We had a banquet option and got so many different choices and it was all delicious.

Service wasn't that great - I would have loved another beer, but I never saw my waiteress again.

Wow - best way to find a bargain for hotels.

I recently purchased a "Wot Mystery Deal" for a trip to melbourne. I ended up staying at a 5 star hotel in the middle of the City for almost half price.

SOmetimes its better to research on wotif.com and then go to the hotel and get a better deal - but for convienience, you can't beat this web site.

The range of clothes changes constantly - so it's really hard to go back and buy something that you really liked again.

I like getting shorts and underwear from here - CK Branded boxers are much cheaper than David Jones.

It can be hard to find a staff member for assistance sometimes.

We came for a birthday dinner and enjoyed the banquet option.

There was so much food it was ridiculous. The beetroot salad was awesome, but everything was tasty and delicious.

Drink service was fast and efficient. The only fault was when I arrived I was told they don't take bookings and couldn't direct me to my group of 12.

Cranky waitress = poor experience

We arrived for a few cocktails and nibbles here one saturday afternoon, and we were instantly met with a cranky waitress. On the third request for menus she bluntly stated "Your orginal server should have bought them" - that was you love.

The cocktails were nice - but the attitude jsut wasn't worth it.

This place is awesome for fresh authentic Italian food. I generally can't go past the pizzas - really love the Bianco (white based) range especially the Funghi.

They don't take bookings here - which can mean long waits. We waited about 20 mins after 8pm on a sunday night.

But the rest of the service is exellent - knowledgable staff, and they are willing to let you try wines before buyng the bottle.

Lovely spot to sit out in the sun on a Saturday afternoon.

I always thought this place was more of a "Take Away" shop that did hot chips - I was very wrong.

We went for breakfast one Sunday morning (mainly because there was a huge line up next door) and I absoltuely loved the foood.

Fantastic vego breakfast with a perfect hot latte.

Give it a try - you won't be disappointed.

Its Ok, but just not great.

This is a very busy little spot - very popular with bike riders in the early mornings. While the coffee is OK (and possibly the best around the Gray street area) it's just rather expensive for a large.

There always seems to be a lot of staff on, but they never seem overly happy. Smile - it won't kill you.

Approximate cost: $5

A group of us rocked up here one Saturday afernoon to celebrate after a friend's citizenship ceremony and we were all blown away with the serivce and the food.

We grazed on different platters and nibbles thorughout the afternoon, and the staff were always attentive without being obstrusive - we never had empty glasses.

Touch Screens - you order off a touch screen in your booth. It's a bit of a novelty, but it is a fun point of difference for this asian restaurant.

You must try the lotus root chips, as well as the prawn and avacado sushi.

They also have a massive range of cocktails - some combinations are too bizzare.

They satff are all very friendly too.
