Well, the yiros was pretty good, and they make some rather nice chips as well. Okay, they don't tend to be anywhere near as crispy as some of the other chips, but they are still quite nice, and the flavour is pretty good as well. Sure, you can eat in, but it also makes a pretty good take-away place as well.

I had the vegetarian pita on the recommendation of the previous reviewer and I was not disappointed. It was absolutely scrumptious and moreish that I literally felt pangs of sadness when I had consumed it all. Another in my party had the chicken one which was also thoroughly enjoyed and someone else had the Greek salad which she found very satisfying. I am keen to try the moussaka next!! Definitely will return. Lovely staff too who were very friendly, giving the place a pleasant atmosphere.

I guess that opportunity came up not so recently, and we decided to come here for a meal before going and watching a film. The service wasn't too bad, and the food was nice as well, though there wasn't much to set it apart from many of those other Italian style restaurants that I have been too. However, it certainly does have some charm about it, and is rather nice and cosy as well. I liked it.

Italian style food, generous portions and they will give you a take away container so you can save some for later. One of the few places I can go with the family where everyone will enjoy what's offered on their menu. Items include rib eye and porterhouse steak, fisherman's basket, calamari, chicken breast with different sauces (mushroom, avocado etc), pizza and pasta.

I've driven past a few times and today I'm delighted that I stopped to try them out. It's breakfast o'clock and there is table service so take a seat and someone is right with you. They get it right with taking a coffee order right away, do I look like I need one? Well I did need one and lucky for everybody it was made promptly and delivered with a smile. Today I chose the Big Breaky Burger. I find it hard not to give these a try everywhere. I noted on the menu some additional ingredients that you won't typically see. This burger was clearly of a higher class. When it arrived (which was surprisingly quick, I guess they are quiet today, but awesome) the presentation was pretty eye catching. I blurted our something stupid and incomprehensible to the waitress. What I meant to say was "that looks awesome" and "thank you". Let's cut to the juice. The coffee is great, smooth with no bitterness! The bacon is delicious, maybe a light smokey flavour and crisped to perfection. The burger is made on a fluffy brioche bun as it should be. The avocado was generous and had a slight lemon flavour like they cared for it delicately begins the scenes. I love this place after one visit! I'll be back, and I'll bring other people. Give it a try!

This is my favourite pub in Epping, which isn't saying much because there are only two and the…read moreother one is, pardon the French, a dump. I've been here a few times, but honestly there is nothing really here that stands out about this place, other than the fact that it is not the Epping Plaza Hotel. Okay, they do have live bands playing on Friday night, but they are most likely Epping's up and coming superstars who may, if given a break, go on to play are more prestigious places (who knows - they may even end up playing at the Cramer). Still, it has a restaurant, a pretty cool beer garden with a playground, a dedicated TAB room, as well as the ubiquitous pokies.

It's a pub. A local…read moreAustralian diner. You won't find anything fancy here just parmas, burgers, pizza and pasta. The food is good enough to keep you coming back but not amazing. They have pokies, a public bar out the front and the resturant sort of in the middle. Pricing is reasonable, about $20 per head without drinks. The service is always friendly and helpful. We always ask for bbq sauce on the side, and usually have to ask again when the food comes out. There is no extra charge for this though so it's not really a problem. Just a little test that amuses us and we place bets on whether it will come or not. Last night it did so I won.

Fortunately it isn't all that far from where I live so I made the five minute walk to see if this Thai restaurant was any good. Well, not being a huge food connosoir, it is difficult for me to compare the food that I had in Thailand to the Thai Food that I had here, but I have to say what I had here was pretty good. Okay, I would hardly call it cheap, but then a lot of this Thai restaurants aren't the cheapest of places to grab a bite to eat. As was expected the staff were pretty good, and they had the typical Thai beers available. Not bad, and I would probably come here again.

The first thing that I must point out about this restaurant is that it is BYO, however they don't…read morecharge for corkage (though when I came here with my Dad I didn't realise it was BYO). If you're expecting authentic Chinese then maybe you need to look closer to the city because this seems to be more what what one would consider Asian Fusion - they have a mix of offerings, traditional Chinese and Malaysian. Still, it's a pretty decent restaurant and the staff are really friendly. The prices aren't all that bad either. They have a sit in area (which is pretty nice) as well as offering take-away. Okay, I wouldn't suggest you come all the way up to Epping to check it out, but if you are in the area it's a pretty decent place for a feed.

The chow garden has been an icon in epping since i was knee high to a grasshopper…read more It hasn't changed much over the last 34 years. Infact, i don't think its even had a new paint job but the fact they've been here since before i was born, in the same street, in the same building with the same owners is testament to it's chefs. The food is absolutely delicious and the prices are just as good. $30 for an 8 course banquet that will fill you up way before dessert arrives. Book a reservation or simply walk in but beware...on the weekends it gets quite busy. It seats anywhere from 1 person to around 80 comfortably and the decor is everything you'd expect from a late 70s early 80s restaurant that never upgraded its decor! However, the food is second to none and with eat in or takeaway available I highly recommend the chow garden as the quenching for your chinese thirst. It's as fresh as youd expect from any side street, out of the way and un advertised chinese affair but, it's extremely moorish and the staff are festidious when it comes to pleasing you. It is, however, 100% BYO so don't forget your beer or wine as the bottle shop is an annoying walk across the busy High street in epping. Which is to be avoided at the best of times. Great staff. Beautiful authentic chinese food in a hidden corner of Melbourne. Delivering the goods since time immemorial.

Well, this time it was somewhat better, though since all of the ordering is done online makes it a little tricky, especially since they don't list all of the beers on their website (and I don't like doing complicated things on my mobile). However, the burger wasn't all that bad, and neither were the chips. Sure, as I mentioned, it wasn't a favourite, but my experience here was somewhat better than before.

We had the $55 sharing menu which is said to be in celebration of traditional Italian dining custom. It is a very good feast and makes this restaurant well worth seeking out. We started with a superb anti pasto. It is a very generous size and offers stunningly fresh and delicious produce. One of the best of its type I've had in good old Oz for sure. I'd be hard pressed to pick a favourite item. They were all excellent. The accompanying bread was excellent too. Light, fluffy and very tasty. All in all, this is a great starter. We had nice pizzas next. Three different types. All had a light base with good tasting toppings. I was talking too much and sadly didn't get the names of any of the pizzas. They are good sound pizzas without being spectacular. Next we had very good looking pork and lamb. Both dishes looked really great when they arrived. The meat was very pleasantly done but not brilliantly and it lacked just a little bit of flavour for me. This course came with well cooked baked potatoes and a nice rocket salad. A couple of our party had cannolis for dessert. I had a taste. They were good. My long black to finish was great. Very well made coffee. Service here was very impressive throughout. There's a good number of mainly young servers and they were all efficient and affable. It is a good restaurant area too. Bright and airy and lovely on a sunny day. There are nice greenery views from most windows. We really liked the place and would very happily dine here again.
