We went for Schwarma and schwarma we got! For a ridiculously cheap price! $10 got me a plate of delicious chicken served on a bed of onions with a garlic dip that could have only come from heaven. You got a huge stack of lebanese bread as well. There was so much food left over I took it to have for lunch the next day, and my goodness! It was even better the next day! I'll definitely be back to try the beef schwarma!

By now if you are not already drooling..now come out shawarma for hubby, veggie mixed platter for me and chicken nuggets and fries for bub. Oh my god. There was silence as we worked our way through our dishes. Vegetarians - listen up! This platter is the best mix of all Lebanese vegetarian dishes put together. (I know there might be many more) every single thing was yummy. Finally there's more than falsely on my plate. I loved the salads and the baba ganoush and hummus served as well. It just is a perfect.. Very filling and fresh and yummy! Hubby said the shawarma was damn tasty too. And bub couldn't get enough of the French fries! Oh hey they also have chuppa chups at he counter. What an awesome awesome family meal :) Go there with a small or big group to share more. One of the best places in Sydney to enjoy Lebanese food for sure:)

Awesome food to eat. The pizza menu and pasta menu were generous and quite tasty. The service was…read morequick and professional. The only things I could fault: - As a university student, I struggled to find a lot of items that were affordable. The place is considered to be very expensive. However, it is expected - the presentation of the restaurant basically gives this away. - I remember one dish that's as absolutely not worth the price. This was the lamb skewers- Very expensive for such a small serving. Make sure that if you plan to dine in here that you wear fancy clothes

They have 2 seating times on weekends so make sure you book or you're not going to find a free table. I had high hopes for this place and it delivered. Great atmosphere and great Italian service. I loved how the menu was so different from other Italian places I've been to. That being said they have a very extensive menu which made it difficult to choose from. My only complaint would be that our pizza entree was really salty and my duck ragu was a tad salty but the rest of my table loved their choices. The waiter recommended the linguine con salsiccie e porcini and it was a fabulous recommendation. For anyone as obsessed with truffle as I am, this is definitely the dish for you! There will definitely have to be a trip back for round 2!

We both had the veal marsala which wasn't very adventurous of us but we cleared the plates. We had desserts and a glass of wine each and it came to about $70 if I am not mistaken. Very good value. Another aquaintance was there and they were extolling the virtues of the food as well. A good night was had by all. Amanda came and spoke to us, as she did with most people. It makes you feel connected somehow to the restaurant when they take the time to do that.

Lovely girl that managed to fit us in was very understanding and actually genuinely wanted help and make sure we were happy. 5 stars just for her help! As for the food, fresh homemade pasta is the first thing I noticed. Had the bosciola and it was nice and creamy and fresh pasta made it even better but slightly on the thick side but still incredible. My wife had bosciola chicken without pasta which we had never heard of but pretty much grilled chicken with mushroom cream sauce. Over all nice night good atmosphere friendly staff good food. I would good again for sure.

A large group stumbled out the door singing to some Portuguese song as we tried to enter the restaurant. Happy customers usually means good service and food - tick! Our expectations were pretty high when we waited for our table to be set up. We looked over at the other tables and noticed the serving sizes are pretty generous, with lots of chips on the side. We settled on the whole grilled chicken and pork belly, with a side of polenta. The grilled chicken didn't let us down. It was juicy and full of flavour! The pork belly was a little disappointing, it came out over cooked and tough. All in all, I'd recommend going for the grilled chicken, and pretty much anything that's chargrilled. The other tables seem to enjoy the meat skewers too. I'll check that out next time.

Amongst the abandoned shops of Petersham's New Canterbury Road, one little take-away joint thrives…read morewith customers from all over Sydney. Silvas Portugese Chicken and Petersham are all but synonymous terms, interchangeable with one another in every day conversation. And with good reason - Silvas is said to be the most authentic Portuguese food in Sydney, it's delicious and it's going cheap. Whilst I once laughed at friends who went out for a nice dinner and came back admitting that they'd ended up at Silvas again, I can now understand Silvas magnet affect. Silva's gives you their self-proclaimed 'healthiest chicken burger' with chips and a soft drink for $10.50, or the burger only for $5 (takeaway). Whilst the burger and chips is a little pricier to eat in ($12.50) you're more than welcome to buy your take away burger and eat in on the roadside tables outside the shop. The atmosphere might not be much, but if you've listened to anything I've said, then you'll know you won't be thinking about the atmosphere after your first bite. Silvas also sells a range of salads and rolls, and is particularly famous for its Portuguese BBQ chicken as well (whole chicken $13.50). And to Isty's, my previous Chicken Burger love, I still love you but you should know that there's someone else in the picture now. I know that you're not the same, so I'm trying not to make comparisons between the two of you, but Silvas Portuguese Chicken burgers have opened my eyes to the possibility that perhaps you're not the only one for me.

Given the mixed reviews over the years I was honestly not expecting much, However we were…read morepleasantly surprised by the taste and quality of the food, at least of the dishes we had. It was fresh, cooked perfectly and oh so tasty. Yum. Perhaps the management used past reviews to improve things here, and judging by our meals they definitely have. Limited menu options for lunch but what they had on offer was truly well done. I'm gonna come back to try the dinner options at some time in the near future. Who says a restaurant can't improve?!

It felt very squishy and due to the actual size of the restaurant I wouldn't Reccommended this place for any groups over 2! The food was average.. Wait time for service/delivery of food was pretty good. The staff in terms of customer service was average too. Hopefully these guys improve with time and experience!

Chilli Jam enjoys the reputation of 'fanciest' Thai restaurant in Concord. Not a bad title to have,…read moreconsidering the plethora of Thai restaurants along Majors Bay Rd. The dark mood lighting, cool furniture and cliché Eastern decorations, gives the impression that Chilli Jam is a seriously suave establishment. Unfortunately, the service does not match the décor. It is sloppy, disinterested, and unobservant (you'll probably need to wave someone down a few times before getting a fresh coke). Perhaps Chilli Jam should worry more about service and less about decoration. The menu is quite interesting, and differs greatly from other Thai restaurants I've visited in Concord. But while they may have more on offer, the quality is no different from the cheaper Thai restaurants on Majors Bay Rd. The food is decent, but seriously overpriced, and the noise level is often unbearable and annoying. The only thing that keeps me coming back to Chilli Jam is the spicy papaya salad. It is so good, but its severe heat means you wont taste much of your other dishes.

Service is OK, but we had to wave our hands to draw attention. The dishes we ordered look better than their taste.

Was craving some buttered fish fillet and some chips and decided to drop by here. There were quite a number of people upon entering and the only seats available (small space) was the high tables on the sides. It is an open concept cafe like burger chain with modern interior design. Decided to order El Fish burger - $10 (price subject to change) which consist of battered fish, cos lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, pickles and lemon herb aioli. I decided to opt out the vegetables as the burger might be bloated and the main taste might not be there. With an additional $5, you could choose a drink and a side dish: chips, sweet potato chips or coleslaw. I am a fan of sweet potato chips and hence I ordered that with Kirk's creamy soda. Next time round I'll probably give the cheesy bacon chips and one of the shakes. Servers are friendly and food arrived within 5 minutes. The burger's buns are crispy and well-cooked. The ingredients are also well-cooked and flavorful. The sauce... Just beyond words. It just makes you wanting to eat more of those. I am glad I opted out the vegetables as it might be of a little different taste. The sweet potato chips are crispy and came in a good portion as well. Not only it is of a good price, I enjoyed every bite of my meal. I love the consistent crispiness of the ingredients as well as the lingering taste of the sauces that accompanied it. Definitely a gem in Winston Hills area :) Will definitely be back for more!!
