The BEST Lebanese pizzas ever. They have zatar (oregano) pizza, meat pizza and any combination of standard pizza flavours. Their zatar pizzas are best though, especially the one with cheese. I think all of their pizzas are under $10 and the zatar under $2. The food is always fresh therefore there is a very short wait. They are open until around 2pm every day and close early on a Friday.

Approximate cost: $2-10

Love this place. The food is always top-notch and reasonably priced for the quality you receive. The service can SOMETIMES leave a little to be desired, but that is to be expected from a small place with only two service staff. If you go with good company and are willing to wait sometimes, it won't effect your experience.

Approximate cost: $30

Fast, fresh sandwiches. The staff are pretty good, even when it is busy. In a handy location and you can go and sit on the tables/chairs by the beach and enjoy the view while you eat lunch. A basic take-away place though. If you are willing to pay a few extra dollars, you can get a nice meal at a nearby cafe or restaurant instead.

Approximate cost: $10

There are cheaper places to get a small chicken burger, but I find this store more convenient as I work nearby. The quality is always reasonable and there are picnic chairs near the water where you can sit and eat. Highly recommend the burger with bacon and avocado.

Try yum-cha, tends to be very busy and popular with local Asian customers so that is always a good sign. Avoid football nights as the service and food standard slips dramatically. Reasonably priced, good for groups.

Approximate cost: $35

Stick to the freshly cooked meals as their baine-marie meals can be average. I stick to salt and pepper squid when I am there as I know it is safe and tastes pretty good for a bistro meal. Try to avoid busy footy nights as you tend to get served slop rather than a meal and the service is pretty shocking all-round. There is a coffee shop in there too which does an ok coffee and has a pretty good selection of cakes and slices. Overall, good quick place to go for dinner if you live locally.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Centro Roselands, Roselands NSW

Really great location and easy access from major roads of Canterbury and King George's Road. Always easy to find parking near whichever entrance you need to go through from. Features Coles, a little Woolies, Reject Shop, Target and Best & Less. There are some fashion stores but I would go to Westfield HUrstville if you wanted to go for a big shop. Convenient location and easy to find your way around, so great as smaller local shopping centre as Bankstown can get very busy.

Cannot fault the food, service or surroundings here. The standard is always very high, food comes out fast and is good value. Be sure to get there early with groups as it can get packed out, especially on weekends. Leave room for dessert!

Approximate cost: $20

Great food, lovely atmosphere and great place for groups. Am yet to try the tapas menu but ordering your own meal leaves plenty of leftovers to share. The seafood pasta is delish!

Approximate cost: $25

Good luck getting in contact with these people. I have sent 3 online enquiries to them to use a voucher purchased online for their services and am yet to hear back. No contact phone number to be found anywhere. Poor service and now regretting ever hearing of them.
