Reviewed By Mike K

What a great restaurant food was excellent and the waiting staff were fantastic very friendly and helpful. I have eaten the Crown Japanese restaurant and paid over $200 for little portions and no better then what was served tonight. I have never been to an all you can eat before and was very surprised how good the food was. There two sittings per evening I booked at 17:30 and it filled up with customers very quickly. Pre book on line.

Mayura Thai

Reviewed By TwoSheds57

Mayura Thai is a fantastic local Thai restaurant. The food is great, the staff are great. We have never failed to have a great time here over numerous visits over the years. Last night we had pork spring rolls, battered prawns, mixed seafood basil, pad Thai with chicken and a chicken dish with a name I can’t recall. We finished with coconut ice cream. The highlight dish for me was the mixed seafood basil, although they were all terrific. As always, all the dishes were really good. The atmosphere was buzzy too and the takeaway orders were flying out the door. Service from Jimmy was wonderful as usual. He such a terrific person and server. You can’t get better. We also really liked the young female server with the fantastically broad aussie accent and lovely manner. What great staff.Mayura Thai is a compact place but it punches well above its weight. It’s pretty much the perfect local Thai place. Highly recommended.

Shangri-la Inn Restaurant

Reviewed By Darren M

Attended for lunch and found a large range at <$11 per dish which included fried or steamed rice. Basic chinese options or Malaysian dishes to choose from. Have eaten here many times over many years where service is always good, meals come quickly and bookings required for special occasions eg Mothers day.

Dumpling Kitchen

Reviewed By nilintentum_reliquit

Basic but clean setting with friendly staff. Pan fried pork and vegetable dumplings was a delicious entree, then followed by the sensational crispy beef with a touch of sweet sour and rich and flavoursome kung po chicken.Thanks for the vote if you found this review helpful.

Baowie

Reviewed By Joan A

Situated in a shopping centre, Baowie does not pretend to be anything other than a purveyor of fresh, flavoursome food served quickly by efficient staff. By noon it is busy most days. I have eaten there three times, twice enjoying a soup at less than $5.00 a bowl, The potstickers on the third occasion, were excellent, but the serve because of its size is better shared. Prices are modest, and the hot and sour soup really packs a wallop!

Isshin Japanese House

Reviewed By Fleuriefirst

FleuriefirstFleuriefirstReviews (7)just nowRated Seconfd time I've eaten here and neither time disappointed. Just had an excellent light lunch here. Beautifully prepared, quick, friendly and courteous service. Could not be faulted. I've paid twice as much for half the quality often, and its generous off-street private car park is a bonus, sadly nearly empty today. I'm saddened and surprised it's not more popular though it was Monday lunch which is not noted for a busy time. This restaurant is well worth a visit if you haven't tried it. Not 'authentic Japanese Japanese, but good authentic generous 'authentic Asian Japanese. Well worth making your own minds up and I'd be surprised if you are disappointed. Take away menu looks generous in variety and I can speak for the relatively generous and well-priced entrees we had. Did not bother with the 'all you can eat' - I'm sure it would be good but plenty of fine selection besides that. The tempura vegetables were fresh, crispy and delicious, and our other choices all well-prepared and delicious - just can't recall what we ordered now. The tea was hot and had that lovely nutty toasted rice flavour but did not look in the pot to check. Well done and thank you very much. Will definitely be coming back and probably also try the take-away though forgot to pick up a menu as we left.

It’s been years since I dined at this establishment and it was an unremarkable experience then. Not overly crowded on Tuesday lunchtime this was a much better experience. Seafood on offer today was cooked prawns, mussels, baby octopus, salmon sashimi with the usual wasabi, soya sauce, ginger & seaweed, seafood sauces. An assortment of fried fingerfoods; spring rolls, octopus balls, wontons as well as an assortment of yumcha dumplings, soya sauce chicken, roast duck, roasted pork belly, Hainanese chicken (velvety). Soups included, seafood & tofu and miso. Vegetables included cooked Chinese stir fried with black fungus and an assortment of salads. Fried rice, coconut rice & fried noodles are also on offer. Chef cooked, lamb, steak & fish with a choice of embellishments are available, the steak was somewhat on the tough side. A large assortment of mouth sized desserts included, pastries, jellies, mouses, custards, cheesecakes, chocolate enriched temptations, icecreams, icypoles as well as a variety of lollies for the young/young at heart.The mouthsized egg tarts were delicate & delicious. Fresh fruits also on offer for the more health conscious diners. Great value at $36/pp or $29/pp (Groupon), drinks a bit on pricier side, still good value averaging at $42/pp. Service was a bit slow in replenishing & clearing of tables. Drinks are at additional cost; 2 jugs of soft drinks, one Chinese beer, pot of tea & 2 coffees. Evening pricing of $65/pp or $56/pp (Groupon), hopefully with more options, plus drinks is above budget conscious pricing.However I was still very full and did not need any dinner that evening, so a satisfying experience.

Vegie Bowl Restaurant

Reviewed By travellingjacki

This restaurant is all vegetarian. Everything is made from either soy, wheat protein or mushrooms and no garlic or onion is used in any of the food. You wouldn't even know that there wasn't any meat - everything was delicious and they have a really large selection of meals. Good value for money too. Staff are friendly and prompt. It is BYO alcohol. Plenty of parking.

Nishikian

Reviewed By terriandsimonf

Dropped in for dinner with the wife without a reservation on a Saturday night at peak time. Probably should have booked but we managed to get a spot at the bar and weren't disappointed. Great menu with more than just the standard Aussie version of Japanese food. Our seat was right in front of the grill (behind glass) so we had the pleasure of seeing food prepared in front of us which I always enjoy. Recommend the grilled eel and pork belly, along with the edamame bean rolls (little fried pastry rolls with beans inside). Service was excellent and the iPad ordering system was gold and reminded me of the systems they have in ramen houses in Tokyo. So easy and efficient. Well worth a visit.
