Been quite a regular of this restaurant since I was introduced by a friend years back. Their ramen, particularly the tonkotsu broth, is a much lighter version compared to the popular thick soups found in Sydney these days. Its flavour is more subtle, but it is something you could eat regularly and not get sick/die of a heart attack. Also recommended is the ebi curry (deep fried battered prawns on Japanese curry rice), croquettes or if you are particularly hungry, go for the Rahmen set (if you like Japanese pickles - or else you might not find enough for the rice to go with). Only wish is that they would give you a few more extra slices of pork with the ramen. Oh, if you like the soft boiled egg with the ramen, you have to order this separately on the menu by adding a "special egg"

The popularity of this restaurant has meant that it has taken over a few of the surrounding shops to expand its capacity. You can definately taste the quality of the toppings going onto pizza with the base bringing great flavour as well. Do eat fast as the base does tend to get soggy if you leave it for too long. Highly recommend the "Via Napoli" pizza with the fresh bocconcini bringing bursts of delicious goodness into your mouth. Lots of side dishes to try but would not recommend the arancini balls which were suggested to us by the waiter as I felt they were pretty bland. Make sure you book ahead as this is a busy busy restaurant!

Korean restaurant specialising in soups. Each soup portion comes with rice. Note that most of these are of the spicy variety so be sure that you can take the heat! Highly recommend the seafood pancake which is cooked nice and thin and full of flavour. If you are in a group of 4, try getting a big soup to share and also the bossam (steamed pork belly). Great value and you will definitely be full after. Be wary when ordering individual soups as they may not match the menu - ask the waiter!

All you can eat self bbq experience. Attentive staff who will regularly change the grills for you when they start to get charred up. Great variety of marinated and non-marinated meats. Also a selection of hot food, sushi, salads and fruit to tempt you while you wait for your meats to cook.

Delicious delicious Peking duck with super crispy skin. You can also get the duck fried with noodles as well for the 2nd course if the lettuce wrap doesn't tickle your fancy. Deep fried salt and pepper flounder is highly recommended as well!

Berries blended into ice cream...YUM! They also have sweet and savoury pies as well as jams and other similar items for sale as well. But do try the ice cream!

Great value with generous servings and fantastic quality. Highly recommend the soft shell crab roll and the grilled salmon roll. Much better offering than some of the other places that offer sushi in the area which has gone tremendously downhill in recent years...

Good stop for a good freshly baked pie. Many different flavours with both sweet and savoury pies. Their sausage rolls are pretty good as well ,although hygiene could be improved as there were flies attacking the sauce bottles.

Fantastic food and interesting menu - with every changing specials. Very memorable meal although service can be a bit lacking when the place gets busy (and it does) with a high chance that the food will take a while to come out. It is a bit pricey, but can be expected as it is far out from the city. Definitely worth a visit if you have time to spare.

Great restaurant with even better service. Friendly and attentive staff. Prices are expected for a fine restaurant. Great variety on each dish as well with many different components. Complimentary brioche (Brasserie Bread) was a treat as well!
