Nice little tapas bar in Cronulla. Always VERY busy. Quite a small venue and many tables are squashed into a small space. Probably better to go here when the weather is fine, as it is quite close to the beach and can get windy. Food is good, but pricey.

This place is just WOW! The banquet that our group had was to die for! Melt-in-your-mouth modern Middle-Eastern inspired food with a reinvented twist! The flavours and ingredients used are fresh and succulent. The owner personally served us and was friendly and humble when we complemented him on his food. Definitely a place to return to!

I ordered pizza via the Delievery Hero website. It stated that this restaurant had 4.8/5 stars for their product and service so I decided to give it a try. I received a text that the order was 60 minutes away. Nearly 1.5 hours after ordering online, I called the restaurant directly, and after some fussing around on the phone was told that my order 'was in the oven now' because they were 'really busy'. Needless to say, I was disappointed that they had probably forgotten my order. The order arrived at my home 2 hours after ordering. There was definitely no wow-factor in the food - it was average wood-fired pizza that wasn't worth the wait.

My car was sent here by the insurance company after a front-end smash. Two months later (with several phone calls putting back the finishing date due to 'parts'), it was returned to us with a scratched bumper bar and leaking coolant. The company dropped off a courtesy car to our house and towed our car away.

Four days later the car was returned to us again, and we noticed that the reverse sensors were not working and all of the internal lights were not working as well. When returned it to the repairer, then said it needed to be send to an auto-electrician (a separate company) and should be ready on a few days time.
After calling the repairer every two days for two weeks, with the excuse of 'parts' again, the car was returned to us.
Two weeks later, we have noticed the tubing for the windscreen water has been muddled up (you go the clean the front and the back one cleans, and you clean the back and the front one cleans) and the ignition start button requires several attempts to start. I am hoping the insurance company accepts my complaint and does not make me return it to this company again!

Great little Italian place. Good food for a great price. Service is a little lacking sometimes. The marinara pasta is fantastic though! Pizzas are great for the price you pay.

Cheap food is all that this restaurant really has to offer. Food is really hit and miss - average pasta and pizza. Probably the gelato is one of the good things here.

Service is terrible, it takes ages to be served and all the meals come out at different times. Staff are often rude and they rush you out if it is a busy night.

This review is for Thai Splendid, Miranda NSW

Great Thai restaurant in Miranda. A bit more expensive than most but with the high quality of food I am willing to pay a bit more.

We started off with the dumplings and spring rolls. The dumplings were beautiful and fresh - a great start to our meal.

We ordered the salt & pepper soft shell crab and the Thai beef salad. The crab was sensational! It was cooked perfectly and I wanted more. The beef in the salad was marinated beautifully and was just melting in our mouths.

I also had a cocktail which was fantastic for the low price that it was! I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

Great bistro, loved the lamb salad and hubby's chicken parma was massive. Sis didn't like the fish and chips. Drinks are reasonably priced. Nice place for a lunch. I tend to avoid this place ob weekends because of the teenybopper crowd.

I love coming here to buy my antipasto products. My family have purchased Sandhurst for years from supermarkets and delis, so when I found out there was an outlet I was overjoyed! The chili olives were amazing (even my non-olive eating husband loved them!) and I use the oil for my cooking. I purchased many items for my fussy nonno for Christmas and he loved them! Who cares if the carton/label is damaged, the contents is aways the same quality was the supermarket. Always a must on my shopping list.

Cute little place. Went there for a hot chocolate - really nice and creamy. My friend's enjoyed their coffee too. Bit of a wait time, with a single barrista for a busy cafe. Will definitely try again as their desserts look scrumptous!
