The food was nothing special here. They do have a special on during the weeknights which is value for money. From memory I think its something like 3 courses for 28.50 from a set menu. Would recommend this for a family to go to. Dont expect the best service from this restaurant either, you might be waiting a while for things to get done.

Approximate cost: $17.50- 30

This was an awesome night! We booked for 12 people on the Friday and it seems they run two shows, a 7.15pm and a late show at 8.45pm. You really do become part of the show, so dont come dressed in your favorite clothes. We left there very full and we couldn't move very much. The waitresses are always nearby to grab you another drink. I would certainly come back another time.

Approximate cost: $37 per head

We just moved to Sydney from Townsville just recently so we are trying a few places in the area that could potentially become our locals. Thought we would give this place a try since its already had two good reviews. Ive got to say the pizza was awesome. So much flavour and fresh ingredients used too. Ordered a Supreme and and Tandoori chicken, the supreme was the greatest supreme pizza ive tried. Now I know thats a pretty big statement but you have to try it for yourself. SO much flavour. Service is much as you expect. At first you almost drive past the joint because it looks so small but dont be turned away by this.

Approximate cost: $10-15

We chose this place because it came recommended to us in the Good Food Guide 2010 and it didn't disappoint. Amazing food, your able to choose different foods for different tastes and if your still unable to pick a main just let the waiter to decide for you. The wine list is extremely good also. The place is situated on the roof top on Cockle bay wharf and you can see why this is a popular place. Can be a little noisy at times, especially if you have a particularly annoying person on a another table whose voice seemed to be louder than everyone else. I swear I now know that girls whole life story. Although there are queues sometimes they tend to disappear pretty quickly.

Late to serve us, not overly friendly, limited menu but seemed reasonable. Waited 20 mins for our coffee and cake to come and it never did. Could not be bothered waiting around. Never again. There are so many other coffee shops around nearby which serve you better.

We thought we would give these guys a try for something different and the food was pretty awesome. We had the Tapas platter for 2 and there was so much food. Very enjoyable. From Wed onwards they have different kinds of live music which is enjoyable. What blew me over though was the service. We had finished our entree and mains within 20mins by the time we ordered.

Very helpful in making the appointment and sending out reminders. Upon arrival, friendly and able to offer plenty of advice on products. Nicely laid out rooms. Prices were very affordable considering the amount of work. Would definitely return if I still lived in the area.

This restaurant is really cozy. We picked this restaurant just before we went to see a show at the Seymour centre. This restaurant also made it into the good food guide for 2010 and it didn't let us down. Very good wine list and the mains were very delicious. It also doubles as an art gallery which is really nice.

Approximate cost: $25-30

Went there for lunch and was really impressed with these guys. The food was pretty darn good. The service was really good, except our waitress was extremly quick to remove our glasses it was a bit awkward sometimes. Other than that the meals came out quickly. Good atmospere too. I would definitely go back again. I really recommend the calamari, amazing!!

Grabbed some take away from these guys, due to the fact I hadn't tried them before and I lived in the area. It looks like all their dough is made fresh there in the shop which is always a bonus. Pizza was delicious and the toppings were aplenty. Very good!!
