Its a lovely suburban restaurant that I have been a few times to.

One time for a private function which was well catered and guests taken care of and other occassions for dinner.

Meals are good servings and freshly cooked with lots of flavour.

We have been coming here for years now,and im never disapointed. The size of the meals are enormous. Great place for functions and parties. Enjoy my experience here everytime.

Disappointing.First we were told we had to absolutely must book between 6pm and 7:30pm. At 6:15 we were booked in only to find that that were numerous empty tables and no need for such a frantic need to be there.We ordered chicken schnitzel,asking if it was real,as opposed to processed and was told it was made on the premises.Along with the chicken pollo-breast with a creamy sauce.The pollo was so overdone it was terrible to eat-extra dry inside and the outside was so hard you could tell they'd been cooking it a very long time on high heat.Points given for the other items on the plate which were lovely.Schnitzel looked and tasted processed.NO flavour whatsoever! Bland,boring and hideous.Is that really made in their kitchen like they say? Thats shameful. I did complain and they did give us the entrees for free but we will never go back.A bit pricey for what it is and service was very ordinary.

Approximate cost: $24

The main focus is seasonal ingredients, ingredients in summer they will use mangoes etc. The dishes are presented in such a creative way. The price is a little expensive but worth it for such high standard food

This Restaurant is great, we go quite often usual in a big family group. The food is always good although the service could improve. Why dont members of staff smile anymore:)

Italian restaraunts are great and simple with great food. Service is good and bad, but that the italian way. Pasta is great and the sauces are magnificant. Great value across the whole menu.

The food is always excellent at this restaurant. However the service sometimes lets them down. It seems if they put you in the front room you get forgotten.THE FOOD MAKES UP FOR THIS SOMEWHAT.I have been to this restaurant four or five times and will go back.

Approximate cost: $22.00
