A very romantic place to go to with that special someone; quite extensive of wine list and main meals...wine was beautiful however service was rather slow but friendly. This is possibly because they have only just opened up. Margarita and the chicken breast was quite nice.

Approximate cost: $20

Pizza was really good, the entrees are decent sizes. Rather pricey. For main, I ordered the risotto and definitely not recommending it to anyone. Ambience is different though, would come here over and over again as it is a nice place to hang out and catch up with friends

Service was great; food was great and better than the ones at Chinatown and portion was generous considering you are paying less than the ones at the City. Must try is the 'hakao' (prawn dumpling), dim sum, and prawn rice noodle...love love it...

Approximate cost: $5

Came here after night out with friends and were extremely starving. Came across one of their employee who was handing out opening special promotion. Decided to give it a go...ordered fried rice, rice noodle, spring roll and their fish cakes. The foods were slightly oily and leaving you quite thirsty. The ingredients were fresh and waitresses were friendly enough. It is an OK restaurant overall.

Have tried to the one at Haymarket but the place was too crowded and small especially if you have prams and twenty or so people lining up. The ramen here is so well flavoured and the ambience is great. Price is slightly higher however it is worth it. Portion is quite generous. I've tried the dumplings as well and it was nicely done. Waiters were very helpful and friendly.

This review is for Abang Sam Malaysian Family Restaurant, Kensington NSW

I first discovered this while they were still doing stalls at the Malaysian Festival; they are well known for their satays and rice cakes. Price was moderate and they were well known and you always see queues. They have now operated their own restaurant near UNSW and their satays are addictive.

10% off for all take away purchases and its cheaper as compared to other branches. I also noticed that the noodle soups here are more well flavoured than the other restaurants for some reason. I loved to come here as it is closer to my house obviously. Great portion as well.

This vietnamese restaurant is quite well known and was definitely recommended by my mates especially the fried rice as well as the lemon grass and chilli chicken/squid. The food were delicious and addictive. We even tried some of the beverages; san bo leung which is a beverage made of seaweed, jelly, longan mixed with crushed ices. The Viet ice coffee was also quite good. Service was very friendly as well. Spot on...

This review is for Saap Thai Restaurant, Sydney NSW

Came here once and am addicted to the som tum (translated papaya salad) that is so well flavoured and tasty. I like no 67 one cos you have mixture of the shrimp and papaya flavouring that are blended together with chilli and fish sauce and all other garnishes. Beware that you do not ask for a hot one as you may get more than what you expect. Price is also quite good and portion is generous as compared to some other restaurants. Service was polite and nice, just the way i like it. Overall, great restaurant!!!

This review is for Ayam Goreng Jakarta, Kingsford NSW

Came here as part of friend's recommendation; tried the coconut rice, oxtail soup, fried rice, and marinated grilled chicken. The chicken was okay; a little bit bland however if you dip them onto the chilli sauce, its all good. Coconut rice was weak in flavour as well, however the soup was nice. Service was okay; nothing special. Overall, it is a good place particularly for students i guess as they have limited budget.
