Sushi is fresh and delicious every time. If you’re not a fan of sushi there are several other items on the menu too, all of which are very affordable. The food itself is a solid 5/5, but the service is always really slow - simply because they are always busy.

Approximate cost: $10

If you're looking for an authentic Italian meal, you'll want to try out Via Napoli. Located along a main road, its easy to miss. But trust me, you wouldn't want to! Parking is a breeze with a car park located just below the restaurant.The pizzas are amazing, but if you're wanting something a little different, I'd recommend the Eggplant Parmigiana. The only downfall is their seating arrangement - its one big open dining space and can get very noisy. Would definitely recommend booking, especially on Fri/Sat nights.

Had heard great things about this place so I decided to check it out. We were lucky to get the last table, but after we arrived there was a wait for tables. Enjoyed both the tella balls and milkshake, but found them to be quite filling. Their omelette was recommended by one of the staff members - wasn't so great. They're definitely better at their sweet, than savoury menu items!

Food is absolutely delicious!! Probably one of the best italian eateries in Sydney (food wise). We ordered a range of pizzas and salads and loved each of our selections.
The ambience - not so great. Everybody is squished into a tiny little room, and waiters are constantly bumping into you as there is no room for them to walk between the tables. Also, there is only room for 1 pizza on the table, so if you wanted to eat your pizza and salad together, think again - they bring out the dishes one by one. Definitely recommend an upgrade in location because the food is superb but everything else is a let down.

Dont let the small cafe size deceive you. Staff are really friendly and service is efficient too. This has become our favourite place to go for yummy breakfasts. They do one of the best big breakfasts in Five Dock!

On our first visit here we enjoyed some delicious banana bread and coffee - and am happy to say that we'd gladly return. Their service is commendable and prices are decent too. Have walked past a few times since- each time they've been packed out!

His macaroons are absolutely delish, like no other! I had high expectations the first time I tried these and am glad to say I was not disappointed. The only criticism would be the price.

Unable to fault this place! The servings are monstrous (prices are on the expensive side- but you get what you pay for!) The place was packed out on the night we ate here, however the service was impressive- waiters were friendly and food was efficient. Despite it being busy, the restaurant wasnt too noisy, and you could actually have a conversation without having to yell. Would recommend the moussaka and dessert menu is worth a look at too (approximately $15 each)

Approximate cost: $32

If your mouth wasn't already watering at the thought of it, you'll be licking your lips as soon as you enter the shop! From the moment I stepped into the store the aroma of pure, indulgent chocolate captivated me. Their variety is absolutely amazing- from strawberry truffle, to marshmallow... even champagne! They not only look great, but taste fab too! The hardest part is knowing when to stop!

Its taken a while, but ive finally found somewhere that makes a fantastic coffee- just the way you expect an amazing coffee taste! Just the aroma when you walk past is enough to suck you in
