Enjoyed our meal was lovely, when seated we were given menus and before we could order a drink our waiter walked away. It was 15minutes before someone came back to take a drink order. The food came out fast and was lovely. Again the waiter didnât seem to want to be working, the service with a smile. The smile wasnât there, it was a very quiet night so Iâm not sure what was wrong. The dining room was nice but needed some background music all we could hear was the banging of cutlery and plates in the kitchen. Overall though because the food was nice and well priced I would come back and happy to recommend.

With many restaurants booked out this time of the year we decided to go to Pescare and fortunately they had a table for the 4 of us. The appetisers of bruschetta and mixed dips were nice although the dips could have had more taste. The bread though was very nice. I asked what fish they use for fish and chips. It happened to be flathead, my favourite for fish and chips. This happened to be an excellent choice. the hippies were good and the fish was cooked to perfection. Still moist on the inside and very tasty. The salad and chicken of our companions were also good and all the serves were generous. We choose an Italian Pinot Grigio with our meal and this was great, well worth the $ 40 we paid for it. Finally, the service could not be faulted. Very nice young people who worked hard to add to our great dining experience. We'll be happy to come back here. Parking though is hard to find on a busy Friday night in this area. So take your time.

It's hard to find a truly romantic restaurant in suburbia. The deep red tones, subdued lighting, old French music, great wine selection/bar and warm friendly service gives La Gaulois an extra point in my review. The mains need work to reinvigorate them (leave that tired salad off). I loved the bookends of my meal, soup and delectable garlic bread with bread so fresh and buttery it melted like a wafer in my mouth. Dessert was profiteroles. These were unbelievable, again so fresh and filled with a Cointreau cream and absolutely smothered in hot dark chocolate sauce. My suggestion to the chef is that if baking is your thing please change your menu. Soufflé ? Beef bourguignon? Seafood mornay pie ? Go with your strength because we love the service and atmosphere in this restaurant and we'd love to see it get improved ratings. We will be back, but hoping for some menu changes.
4. Nando's

Ordered a halloumi burger and coleslaw.Service was friendly and accurate. It took about 5 minutes to ready the order.Coleslaw is nicer than at another fast food chain.The meat and the halloumi in the burger are sliced so thinly I could barely taste it. The burger, at $12.50+ was not worth it. 2 doors away and for less money, I can get a very good sized burger.At the current prices, I would not go back to Nando's.(I've found the same, when I purchased 1/4 and 1/2 chicken meals from them. The serving is too small)
