The beef enchiladas were good, the guacamole and chips were really good. The beef Toquitos tasted great. But the Spanish rice was just bland.

If you are not in the beaches, this place is not worth driving for - and this is not even close to…read morethe best Mexican you can have. So if you are on the search for the best Mexican in Sydney, I will save you some time, this is not it. However, if you are in the area and looking for a place to eat. Especially if you don't mind dirty, simple and slightly stereotypical 'touristy' Mexican, then look no further. Yes, if you've ever been to Mexico, or eaten at an authentic Mexican place, you might be slightly offended by this place. Yes, it is what you'd imagine a place would look like if decorated by someone who has watched a Speedy Gonzales cartoon. And the menu is tacos, barritos and nachos - and things slightly taste the same, whether you order tacos, barritos or nachos. But as I said, if you are looking for good portions, and cheap prices. This place is good. If you know what you are expecting, this you won't be disappointed. Yes, this is not the Flying Fajitas Sisters, but it is good for what it is - and that is a family Mexican restaurant on the beaches.

We had a delightful evening at Umami tonight. This local Japanese restaurant in Newport is always…read morebusy and it was our first time eating here. We chose a selection of entrees and main dishes to share. The staff were helpful in assisting us choose delicious dishes off the menu. It is BYO wine and Umami offer a small selection of Japanese beer to buy. The music was "old pop" which included 1940's hits and swing sixties classics, which we enjoyed. Recommend the Takoyaki and sushi dishes.

This is a busy, modern Thai restaurant in my local shopping centre. Lacks "atmosphere" only…read morebecause it is in a neighbourhood shopping centre! Outdoor seating overlooks BiLo carpark. However the restaurant is clean, modern and attractive in decor, with an open kitchen so you can see the food prep. Service is always friendly and pretty efficient. style of food is a combination of the classics like mussamun beef, red and green curries, and what I think of as modern thai- lighter stir fries and wok dishes without a lot of heavy sauces. I really like the food. Lunchtime $10 special can't be beat. My favourite thing is the gado gado (veggies in a peanut sauce)- now I'm hungry!! Family-friendly, quite noisy so kids blend in and are made welcome. Sitting outside is easier on the eardrums. Highly recommened for no-fuss dining with family and friends.

The staff are amazing and the food is probably the best Thai on the coast. My brother loves the food here too and he's picky!

The pizza had delicious crust, stayed nice and hot in the box on way home, good price for such quality toppings (it wasn't all onion and capsicum like many places) and the left overs tasted just as good the next day. I recommend!

I really want them to succeed because they do traditional Italian food and Melissa and the guys are trying so hard. Seating around 30 people, you can enjoy pizza and food there or you can go for home delivery (only available on the weekends). Try the capriciossa if you love anchovies or the spaghetti gamberi.

Apparently 'coffee, vanilla and mung' represent the three core tenants of this company: ethical, healthy and tasty. O....k... So odd nomenclature aside, this is a pretty solid cafe franchise and the Hornsby kiosk is worth a stop if you're in the neighbourhood. The coffee is Fair Trade Alliance and the gourmet sandwiches are all delicious. They obviously use fresh produce and if the service is a little slow, it's because they're busy making your sandwich. The baristas could be better trained, but it's consistent enough that you could grab a coffee card and make this your regular. The only problem is you're stuck in the doorway of Westfield Hornsby. The cafe is nicely cordoned off, but you still have to deal with the hoards of shoppers streaming by, and the odd blustering wind coming in from the centres double doors. That said, I've never really been a fan of coffee shops in malls. Ethical, healthy, tasty. Turns out they were right all along.
