This review is for Brooklyn Depot Southbank - Burger Restaurant, South Brisbane QLD

verified email - 16 Oct 2016

Went there once on a busy night. Fortunately didn't have to wait too long for a seat. Tried the buffalo wings, sweet potato chips and the coleslaw. All pretty good and we had a lovely, energetic waitress who was pleasant and cheerful. Overall a good experience, will certainly visit again to try the burgers and other dishes on the menu.

This review is for Southern Spice Indian Restaurant, Brisbane QLD

verified email - 16 Oct 2016

This used to be one of the few places in Brisbane that served South Indian food (that's changing now).
Pretty decent food, the dosas, vadais, and idlis are all pretty good, and the sambar is okay.
Their other rice and curry dishes are about as good as most other places.

Approximate cost: $25

This review is for Top In Town Indian Restaurant & Takeawa, West End QLD

At least the food here resembles some of the stuff you actually get in India, unlike most of the Indian restaurants in Brisbane.
Great flavours and spice, but often a bit too oily.
Well priced for Indian fare.

This review is for Thai Blue Elephant, Eight Mile Plains QLD

I am not a big fan of Thai food, especially as I don't enjoy their curries, so for me to like this place is saying something!
Really enjoy their pad thai and tom yum soup. The coconut rice is delicious. Fresh and delicious food, particularly if you order prawn dishes.
Not too enthused by their roast duck, and their curries seem okay for Thai curries.
Overall great food - however you can really notice the difference when the main chef is cooking and when he's not.

Great place with a nice atmosphere - might be a bit too dimly lit for some.
The food is delicious, especially their winter fare (who doesn't enjoy a good lamb shank!).
Not too enthused with their desserts.

Good food and I love their drinks - especially the horchata and pina colada.
Nice quiet place in a great location at West End. Prices are about average.

This review is for Char Char Yiros West End, West End QLD

verified email - 16 Oct 2016

The meat is juicy and tender, the salad is quite fresh and the bread is soft. So they do pretty good yiros.
Only complaint is that there isn't enough meat in the yiros. Considering that, it's a little overpriced.

This review is for Sizzling Mongolian BBQ, Taringa QLD

verified email - 16 Oct 2016

It's not an authentic Mongolian food experience, but it is nice to be able to pick your items that you want cooked and seeing it cooked before you.
The interior is getting a bit dated, may have a long wait on busy nights, but the food is pretty good.

This review is for NoNo's Lebanese Food, Red Hill QLD

Simple but delicious food that seems to have a homemade touch.
Small shop without much to it.
If you like your kebabs with real meat and some nice sides, this is the place to go to.

This review is for Lefkas Greek Taverna, West End QLD

verified email - 16 Oct 2016

Lefkas on a busy night is loud, noisy and has a selection of some delicious foods - particularly their yiros (with freshly made pide, crispy, chewy grilled meat and fresh salad), their dips and their salads. I've also enjoyed their desserts and other items like their lamb shank.

I haven't enjoyed their seafood items or their moussaka, so I would say their strength isn't gourmet fare.

Little bit more than average price. The wait staff are friendly, but understandably a bit harried on busy nights.

What you can expect is good honest food at a bustling, energetic restaurant (live music on Friday nights), where most people look like they're having a fun time.

Approximate cost: $30
