What a meal! Husband had medium butter chicken while I had mango chicken. Generous serves with full tastes. Best garlic naan bread I have ever had. Meat Samosa for entrees were a brilliant blend of spices, sweetness in the sultanas and softened with the creamy mint sauce. Definately recommend.

We made a late reservation on a busy Saturday night, it took a while for our drinks to be served however our order was taken quickly, our entrees were nice the satay skewers were juicy. Our mains came out seperately with about 10 minutes wait on our sirloin steak which came out cold. Our thought was that this was cooked first however forgotten by staff. It was a real waste of a meal considering the price.

If you are tired of the cardboard pizza's that Domino's are dishing up then get your butt over to our local Traditional pizza at the Pizza Inn ... the Bruschetta pizza is a delicious alternative to garlic bread, and the pizza's never disappoint ... you can even get them in normal sizes that are bigger than a dinner plate !!

Had a great night here with my family before flying back home to Netherlands. Friendly service and a nice place to dine.
I would have classified like to classify this restaurant as 'very good'. But I couldn't. The 3 stars to me means 'good' and not 'average'. Below is my reasoning.
Although the service was fine, we did had the idea they were somewhat understaffed though.
Most of us ordered the nice rump steak, which were all just slightly overdone. What got me most was that this beautiful piece of meat was covered in this bernaise sauce. To me that was just wrong. Sauce: sure if you have to, but only on the side.
Our side salad for some reason was actually quite spicy. Why a spicy green salad? Not a refreshing salad at all!
The style and decoration of the restaurant I quite liked. But during our dinner somebody decided to scrub the floor in a bar area not far from us. I would recommend doing that after the guests sitting close to this area have left.
Overall an enjoyable evening, with friendly service. Not sure yet if I will be back though...

Reviewed By Maurice I L - Gosford, Australia
The food is excellent quality and the menu extensive. After many months of ordering off the menu, we now just ask the chef to make us 2-3 dishes of his choice. Sometimes we get things from the menu we would not consider ordering for ourselves and sometimes we get dishes that aren't even on the menu. Every one of them is delicious. The staff are warm, friendly and very considerate. After so many months, they are like family and always make time to stop and have a chat.

We ate here for the first time at the request of my son for a birthday treat.
Service was great, friendly and fast. I was surprised with the food....it was fresh, good quality, tasty and decent sized servings. Good valu for money. Everyone enjoyed their choices, and it was great to have something different to the normal fast food outlets.
Would recommend eating here, and we will be back again.

This is our local 'go to' restaurant. Friendly staff, cheap dishes. In summer sitting on the Terrace is nice as it's quieter. Some nice dishes. The special fish is awesome, Pla Lu San, not sure if correct spelling.

Can't fault the food and drinks, always lovely to indulge in something so sweet and yummy. Service by the overworked young staff was prompt and friendly.
However, for the price you pay.....it certainly isn't cheap, they need to spend money on their furnishing. You are sitting on seats that are so worn through. They were originally brown vinyl, but now are all patchy and back to the grey fabric underneath. It just makes it look so run down and dirty. They are so old looking. They look like they should have been recovered about 2 years ago!
The place is always busy. They would be making money hand over fist, yet they couldnt care about how the place looks. It really lets down the experience of siting and enjoying a sweet treat.

I am usually not that excited about pies but thought we had to try this when in The Entrance as the reviews were all so good. Unfortunately we were there a bit late in the afternoon and many of the varieties were sold out, which shows how popular they are. My partner had a prawn mornay pie and a sausage roll and voted them as good as Pie In The Sky, which is high praise! I had chicken mornay as all my other choices were already sold out, and it was tasty and moist, not at all like the pies of old. This had actual pieces of chicken in a creamy smooth sauce. Not exactly health food but if you are going to have a pie then at least make it a really good one!
