We enjoyed the calamari, truffle pizza, and pasta—all were delicious and full of flavor. The service was excellent, and our food arrived quickly. It’s best to reserve a table ahead of time, as there was a wait for walk-ins. Overall, a great dining experience!

Well located and packed even into the evening and before closing time. Then a friend suggested meeting here with the chums for lunch over the weekend and I discovered why it is so.
A lively atmosphere, always good for group dining from mains to desserts plus prompt service from the ever attentive waiters.
Most importantly, the portions were great, we ordered 3 flavors of wood fired pizza and a lamb shank.

Overall the food was great. Nicely cooked pizza and tender ribs with slightly tartness apple on top. I would go back again but not during rush hour. Either need to make reservation in advance or wait in the line. That’s why we went around 4 pm before dinner rush.
I don’t usually give 5 stars for service because I could always find some mistakes. A few things they stand out.
1 the music level isn’t too loud
2 the AC didn’t make us feel like we were eating at North Pole.
3 we sat right next to the waiter station and after the host cleaned the table. He slammed it down at the station, my husband jump on him. He immediately apologized for it. At first, I thought “oh great now every waiter and waitress is going to slam dishes and silverware on the counter non stop” but they didn’t. I watched them work closely. All waitress put the dishes and silverware down gently and tried not to make too much noise. That was good training.

Went here with my family around 6pm. Was a long queue to be seated but we didn’t wait too long. The food was absolutely amazing. We have seafood platter and pizza also some ribs. It’s all really tasty and staff are welcomed. 💘💘🔥🔥🔥no doubt the best Italian restaurant we find in Sydneyyyy.

My friend and I ordered a Margherita pizza, a seafood salad, and a tomato gnocchi. My friend especially liked the pizza; she loved its texture and flavor. As for me, I absolutely loved the seafood salad. It was large, full of various kinds of seafood (large prawns, large octopus legs, large calamari), and was well seasoned. The vegetables in it were also very fresh. We loved the vibe in the restaurant as well.

This is one of my favorite Chinese vegetarian restaurants in Sydney. Each time I have visitors come to visit me, I sure to bring them here to entertain them. They all acknowledged it was the best Chinese vegetarian foods they ever had. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully and thoughtfully presented with an excellent selection choices. The owner was courteous and friendly. The decor was clean and intimate, suitable for friends to get together. I would recommend this restaurant unreservedly to my friends who enjoy vegetarian cuisine.

Delicious food and great service. The only thing I would suggest is that the photo quality of the menu could be improved especially with the amount of options available. The owner is very welcoming and accommodating. Overall a positive experience!

First picture looks like micky mouse anyways prices were kind of expensive for what it’s worth, the food was interesting because everything is vegetarian so we had a lot of tofu and other stuff. Deep fried but very oily, serving sizes were quite tiny. Found the dishes to be quite dry but idk

This was our second time at Mother Chu’s. It is strictly vegan and they have a variety of dishes that mimic meat. I enjoyed a steamed bun with a barbecued filling. I’ve never had a steamed bun before but it was delicious and filling. I had the wonton noodle soup which had 4 nice sized wontons and a tasty broth. Hubs and I shared the Mongolian style gluten dish. You get a lot of food. Not a lot of ambiance but always crowded as the food is that good. Our server is a very special woman who we met last year when our friend brought us there and she remembered us. It is definitely a place we will return to when we visit Sydney.

An amazing fun menu with lots of classics you usually can’t get as a veggie. Mother was a great host, always filling up our water.
Will be returning, seitan, tempeh, mushroom and tofu options for all veggie preferences.
Decent portion sizes but would recommend at least 2 dishes as they are so good.

This restaurant offers a great menu with a wide variety of options. We ordered a selection of stews, including beef stew, pork bone stew, and tofu and beef stew. Each dish was served piping hot, with rich, bold flavors and a satisfying kick that made every bite mouthwatering. The broth was well-balanced, deeply flavorful, and absolutely delicious. One of the best Korean restaurants in the city!

I absolutely love this Korean BBQ place. I first came here 10 years ago, and even though I live overseas now, every time I'm back in Sydney we come to visit here. It's probably my husband's favourite restaurant in Sydney too. Great value and quality all you can eat buffet.

Good selection/variety of meats and great service. Very attentive to changing the grill regularly and timely service. Good value for a buffet in comparison to ordering a la carte. Side dishes like steamed egg and stews are good portion sizes.

Great food - good quality meat for reasonable price.
Really really good service - very attentive and smart, says a lot these days. Unprompted side dish refill.
I used to come here years ago and will likely frequent this place again.

My partner and I come here quite often. For us, it’s amazing! From the friendly service. To the array of different choices from BBQ, Noodles, Fried Chicken, side dishes and many more if I could go on. Quality is consistent and we highly recommend this place!!

The food was disappointing for the price point. The presentation was well done. However, in general all dishes’ flavours were “separate” and inharmonious, e.g. you can taste the salt away from the food itself (so it tasted confusingly salty but bland at the same time), and the side sauce/puree were often bland and did not blend well with the main dish. The garnish for both our lamb appetiser and salmon main dish was too burnt and produced an unfortunate bitter taste.
With regard to service, the server became quite short/terse with us as soon as we said we won’t order drinks/wine (we do not drink). All in all it was quite a disappointing experience for the price point.
I hope this is a one time occurrence, as the restaurant has a good review, and I trust others had a better experience.

I visited on a Friday night with my partner, we ordered the oysters, salmon and the pasta special with chorizo, haloumi and spinach.
We both found the food great for the price point; the oysters were very fresh and my salmon being perfectly cooked and delicious however, the fettuccine was stuck together and slightly undercooked which was unfortunate as the flavour was amazing!
Our highlight were the two waitors who looked after us they were truly exceptional, extremely attentive and friendly. We would definitely return just for the great service :)

The staff are kind, friendly and polite. The olive oil is very tasty. All the dishes were delicious, but the dessert creme brûlée was creamy and exquisite.

Overall, it was a delightful experience.

One of best Italian at CBD.
The service at this restaurant was similar to what I experienced in Italy, with refined hospitality. It's a traditional Italian-style service.
Moreover, just like in Italy, the carpaccio served here is fresh and not heavily dressed. You can enjoy carpaccio here just like the authentic one in Italy.

Great little Greek restaurant in the CDB. Slight retro 70's vibe to it, however it feels very traditional with quality Hellenic memorabilia on the walls. Food was good, however the dolmades were a bit too soggy for my liking. Also, the staff are a little overzealous about taking plates away when there was still food remaining. On a couple of occasions, one of the waiters reached over my shoulder from behind me to snatch a plate off the table without me knowing he was there, which startled me. Staff should be told to politely ask customers first if they have finished before going to take plates away.

Lovely Greek restaurant in CBD. Not sure if there was another entrance but the only one we saw had to go down some steep stairs. First time here so was amazed at the food and how yummy it was. Serving of food huge. Spanakopita was very nice to share. Decor was beautiful and loved the toilet see photos. Price was reasonable. Cooking was like home cook meal. Delicious.

Great food! Lamb souvlaki was soo soft and tasty, great fries too. Prawn saganaki was very good too.
Saganaki cheese was different but still good and the dolmades were soft and good!
Side note: try not to seat near toilets as it smells of naphthalene balls a lot. Maybe a way to improve would be getting those ones that smell good.
Staff were really friendly hence we gave 10% tip!

I had such a great time at Diethnes! We came as a big group of 15. The service was outstanding; the staff were friendly, efficient, and incredibly accommodating. They handled multiple dietary requirements with ease and had lots of gluten free and vegan options available.
As a coeliac, I felt completely safe — the team was knowledgeable and took cross-contamination seriously. Delicious food, great atmosphere, and top-tier service. Highly recommend!

Good food, well presented and excellent service. Good vegetarian options too, but would have loved some protein with the platter.
Good ambience!

Second time came here and always looking for the plumpy scampi (my favorite). But this time I had a slight delay for 15-25 mins for a dish to come out. It was not a busy day or during lunch break, but might be some other problems I think. At first my orders were come in a timely manner but when I did my second / third order, the slight delay happened. Fortunately, I was in no rush. But always good to come back.

It’s a sushi restaurant which has a belt serving. As a tourist, here bring us the memories in Japan. However, since it’s in Australia, you can’t have high expectations on its jap food. The sushi rice is warm and they do not serve free green tea. Still, if you wanna get back some jap food, here maybe an option.

An awesome experience. We attempted to dine at another Sushi restaurant but they were not very accommodating so we chose to look elsewhere and found this amazing restaurant. Fresh ingredients and so tasty. A really inviting space and very family friendly. Staff were so engaging and attentive. The serving sizes were also very generous. The Gunkan seared scallops were excellent and the cooked tuna was also amazing. Dine here for a great experience.

I went to eat here many time. I like the food here. It’s delicious. But the last time I went to eat, I was very disappointed. Because the waitress was a little rude. I think she can find another word to talk with customers
