This cafe is just around the corner from my cousins house so we all went for a bit of treat as it was the first day of our holiday break here.

My cousins go here all the time and I can understand why. They deliver some excellent coffee, delicious food and have very friendly staff.

My girlfriend loved this cafe, she said she was in heaven with the cakes being so amazing, she'd never had better. I tried the pancake stack. Yummo! Not only do they have sweet treats but they also have a great range of savouries. Everything looked and tasted delicious. Enjoyed the coffee aswell.

I have mixed feelings about this fish and chip shop, my first visit was excellent, chips perfect and fish tasted fresh. My burger was huge and delicious. But with my most recent visit my chips and fish were soggy, certainly not drained enough. Yes they were busy, but surely they can still do a proper job with draining the oil.

I am still willing to give them another try as people do have off days and maybe this was one of them.

I have been here a few times now with my girlfriend and a few of our friends. Well worth the money at around $20 for all you can eat. So much choice, pizzas, salads, roasts, chinese, seafood and you cannot forget the desserts.

Make sure you go here with an appetite because you will want to try a bit of everything. Our stomachs were bulging when we left, we certainly ate way tooo much. Worth every cent.

Love this place, have had breakfast here twice. A large breakfast which included pancakes, fried eggs, bacon, tomato and a sausage, tasted fabulous. All goes well with a great coffee. My girlfriend prefers the chocolate pancakes with ice-cream. We have always been happy with our meals and they are certainly worth the wait. This place gets so busy.

Approximate cost: $14

This review is for Savvas Yiros, Unley SA

My friends and I were in need of a Yiros fix when we came across Savvas Yiros.

We received quick friendly service and our Yiros was reasonably priced at around $10. We ordered a couple of the lamb and chicken yiros with a side order of chips. The yiros was amazing, loved the garlic sauce. It was very satisfying and we didn't need the side order of chips.

Friendly staff, fabulous yiros and reasonably priced. Will definitely be returning. YUM.

Approximate cost: $10.50

Decided to stop here for a coffee with my girlfriend as she liked the name of it. A smallish cafe with a friendly atmosphere and service was very quick even though it was fairly busy and we were lucky to get a seat.

Our coffees were great, we didn't have a meal on this occasion as we were going to a friends house for a bbq. We will be returning as the breakfast menu looked great and other patrons certainly were enjoying their meals.

This is not really a restaurant I would normally choose to dine at, but I was attending a 21st birthday.

Whilst the meals are unbelievably fantastic and the servings being huge, I found this restaurant to be very expensive. Entrees start at $10 for soup and as for mains, the cheapest meal was $25 going up to $43 for steak, or the mixed grill for 2 people at $79 which is what we opted for. It had marinated meats, like port ribs, steak, chicken, chorizo and it came out on a mini grill. Really was presented well as was everyone elses meals.

We did enjoy our night out although it was very hard to have a conversation because it was just so noisy. Everyone had to yell to hear each other.

Staff were friendly yet very slow, we had to constant try and get their attention and our meals were not served at the same time. Many were finished before other had even started.

A very nice restaurant with delicious food, would only return for a special occassion

My friends and I ordered a sensational fish platter and a couple of burgers from here recently. The servings were a lot bigger than we had expected and the fish was perfect, tasted really fresh as well as the chips and salad.

Service was a little slow, but they were very busy and it certainly was worth the wait.

Will definitely be returning with my mates in the coming months.

Decided to try Mr India as I am a true lover of indian cuisine. I tried their 'Hot' Beef Vindaloo, it was fabulous, the heat was perfect. Also tried the Rogan Josh which is another favourite of mine, both curries were absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend ordered the Mango Chicken, she loved the creamy mango sauce. Everything was perfectly cooked and really tasted authentic, I have tried many Indian restaurants and have to say this is certainly one of my preferred ones.

Will be returning for sure very soon. Definitely recommend.

This is not a place I would be in a hurry to return to. Our meals certainly were ready quickly but the quality of our meals was left behind. My friends and I shared our meals and I would have to say that the laksa was the pick of the bunch, everyone just wanted to that and the rest of the meals were barely touched.

Was reasonably prices but felt it lacked customer service.
