My husband and I were a little disappointed with this place. The service was below average, the room lacked atmosphere and it was cold. The food was quite good but nothing special unfortunately as it was a special occasion. Wouldn't recommend.

Approximate cost: $30.00

Although the pizza was OK I was really disappointed that they only served beer and wine - no spirits which apparently don't enhance the grumpy experience. This is hardly a winery so don't get your hopes up. Pizza was fresh and the wedges were good. Best pizza in Adelaide - is in the Barossa.

I loved the food here. It was fresh, generous and incredibly tasty. On a nice day you can eat outside which is lovely. Service was good. Highly recommend.

Food was great. Rustic yet delicious. Service was good and I loved the venue. Very homey. We had the banquet which I found to be too much food for the 2 of us. Left feeling very stuffed but also very satisfied. Would love to eat there again next time in Melbourne and just choose a few dishes from the menu. Would recommend.

Friends took us here recently for a special night out. Lovely atmosphere, great service and quality food. Portions are fairly small so sides would be advisable, all of which are just delicious. A little pricey but worth it for a special night out. They also make a mean Japanese Slipper.

Approximate cost: $38.00

This place came recommended so was a little disappointed with our pizza. Uninteresting cardboard base and average toppings. Went for a gourmet pizza which was overpriced and very average. Wouldn't eat there again.

Yum. Unfortunately could only try a few different cakes, which were just delicious. The shop is older which I thought was a plus. It has a lovely feel, good service and quality products and it turns out they deliver to Adelaide. Haven't tried that service yet but will keep it in mind.

Approximate cost: $4.50

This review is for Marino Rocks Restaurant, Marino SA

We've had takeaway from here a few times now. Unfortunately the food has been inconsistent. Sometimes the fish has been absolutely delicious, along with the chips, and other times the fish in particularly has been incredibly greasy. In saying that, I would still give it another go. The view in great especially at sunset.

Booked months in advance for a table at this popular restaurant. Although the food was good we were expecting great food so were disappointed. Their drinks menu was ridiculous - did not include standard spirits which ruined my night. Service was fantastic but would not return or recommend.
