Great serving sizes, friendly service. I've sat here for hours chatting with friends, and not been hassled (not always the case at cafes these days, where one often feels pressured to buy more or clear out). The all-day breakfast menu is a particular favourite. This place has recently started opening for dinner as well, with Mediterranean style cuisine, which I can't wait to try! Parking lot around the corner, and another across the road.

The décor and atmosphere of this place give a fine-dining feel, and the delicious, well-presented food only adds to that experience. I like that this restaurant has booths, as not many places do these days and they're so comfortable. They also have an outdoor seating area. On the more expensive side, but worth the price.

The pizzas are absolutely delicious! Menu also offers a range of pasta, mezze, etc. They also offer banquet deals and group functions. The open-style restaurant dining is very pleasant in the warmer months, but can be a tad cold in winter (we tend to pick a table further in). They also sell a range of gelato and traditional drinks.

Authentic, fine French-dining. The food is delicious and well-presented, with a range of specials to keep things interesting. Chef Pascal adds a personal touch to the dining experience by meeting and greeting customers – his hearty “bonjour” never fails to make the diners smile, and he seems particularly fond of birthday groups (be prepared for the whole room to join in a rendition of the ‘happy birthday' song at the Chef's insistence!) My friends have praised the frois gras. I'm more partial to deserts myself, and find their crème-caramel divine. On the expensive side, but an elegant night out.

This review is for St George Fruit & Veg Market, South Hurstville NSW

A large range of fresh produce, grocery essentials, snacks and gourmet food items (including a deli section and frozen deserts) makes this the perfect one-stop greengrocer. Staff are friendly and have helped me find that obscure vegetable that the latest recipe demands. There is a parking lot adjacent to the store and they will carry your groceries down to your car if you wish. This is by far the best quality fruit and vegetable shop in the area.

This review is for Thai Recipe, Kogarah NSW

I regularly come here for lunch or dinner, both for dining-in and takeaway. The food is fresh, fast and filling. This place is hugely popular, but I've never waited long for my meal. The menu has a wide selection, catering for all tastes, and also allows ‘choose-your-own' options. The staff are friendly and the prices are very reasonable. There is a large outdoor seating area, which has a very enjoyable atmosphere as it overlooks the town-square. Street-parking can be hard to find, but there is a parking lot on the street behind with a lift going up into the square (free entry weekdays after 8pm and on weekends).

This place has great tasting food and a good atmosphere. The menu offers sufficient choice (also have a look at the blackboard specials, as there's usually a good mix on here). The staff are friendly and accommodating. There is a good-sized seating area, which allows for groups, as well as cosy corners for couples.

This review is for Red Martins, Kogarah NSW

Take advantage of the great 2-for-1 lunchtime deal on main meals (Monday-Wednesday), have a drink with friends, or join in the weekend nightlife. The bar-style food is decent-tasting and the large serving sizes are excellent value for money. We've spent quite a few fun lunch-breaks here, enjoying the music videos played on the wide screen TV and prompt serivice. Street-parking can be hard to find, but there is a parking lot on the street behind (free entry weekdays after 8pm and on weekends).

This review is for Jade Lotus, Sylvania NSW

Delicious tasting food, large seating area, and tasteful décor make for a great dining experience with a large group of friends or just for two. They have a large menu selection, and friendly staff are always willing to help narrow down the choices if you can't decide. Somewhat expensive, though worth the price. Ample parking at back of restaurant. They also do takeaway and delivery.

This review is for Fuji Tempura Bar Japanese Restaurant, Ramsgate NSW

This quaint little place is perfect for a quick meal. The restaurant is often packed out, but that doesn't stand in the way of fast, friendly service. We particularly enjoy the Chef's specials (best Shiitake mushroom I've tasted). We usually go for the hot cooked foods, though they also have a tasty range of cold selections including sushi and inari.
