Unfortunately I find this restaurant a bit of a rip off, you really pay for location don't you. Main meals are like $45 per dish which is very extraveggant, don't get me wrong, the food is nice but I am not sure it's worth that much. The staff suit the ambience, they are obvioulsy well trained and they are very professional.
Approximate cost: $45
This company paved all of our backyard under the patio and up the side for us, it was about 100 square metres in total. They were really freindly to deal with and are a local company for us. Their quality of work was exceptional, all bricks were layed in the right direction, no chips, all even, no big gaps and the cuts are done really well. We are extremely happy with the finished product and will be using them again when we get around to the other side of the house
My partner and I had our couple portraits done here, we both grew up in the bush so we didn't want standard studio photos. We went to this company because they take your pictures our on their property and we had seen some of their work (they were at our local shopping centre). We love the photos, people always comment on the location. They are by no means cheap but we would not hesitate to pay that price again, have a look at their quality on their website.
They took the most amazing photos of the children that you will ever see, they captured the real moments and not the posed moments. I have had the images blown up and will keep them forever. The kids just felt so comfortable, they didn't get restless at all, they knew exactly how to handle the kids which is why I think they got such good shots. I haven't stopped recommending them!
They do a lovely cut here, I went in with a picture and came out looking exactly the same. I always get my hair thinned and layered and I have had it stuffed up several times in the past but the hairdresser here does it right every time. The prices are very very good.
In a nutshell, if you like seafood then you will like this place. My parterns favourite dish from here in the crispy skinned barra, he reckons he's never had a better bit of barra. There are still options for non-seafooders. I had a thai green curry which was well cooked for a essentially seafood restaurant. Staff were lovely and friendly, very pricey but it's good food so it was ok

Not really for me, I think this restaurant is suited to a certain group of people. It's extremely up market, the degustation was about $190 per person but I didn't really think it was worth it, even with my discount book. There were some really nice dishes like the Amuse bouche but some of the stuff was just weird like the rabbit, coffee and lavender (???)!. It was worth it once, but I wouldn't go again. Their wine list is extensive and good quality.

Some of my extended family are Sicilian so we went here for a big family catch up and they did a great job at catering for such a large crowd. Food is very creamy and rich, I wouldn't recommend for those who aren't too fond of Italian as it's very traditional Italian. The inside is lovely and chic, it's very open though so noise travels a bit, especially with a group as big as ours
Front office staff are so nice and welcoming, I stayed here when we had a function at Kings Park so that we didn't have to drive home. The rooms have obvioulsy been revamped lately because they look nice and modern, they were clean and tidy and the beds were very comfortable. I think they are only rated 3.5 star but I'd rate them higher than some of the 4 stars I have stayed at. Very nice.
This restaurant has Cambodian cuisine which I haven't really eaten before, I can't say I was overly impressed, the food was pretty tasteless and bland. The staff seemed like they didn't want to be there, they place needs a revamp badly.
