We ate here for the first time on Saturday night. The place was absolutely jam packed! Couldn't quite feel the air conditioning sitting right down the back of the restuarant next to the bar, unfortunately, as it was still about 30 degrees outside at 9 pm. Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal! We were only after a quick bite, so we had the haloumi (mouthwatering), felafel (tasty) and the mukloubi with chicken (absolutely delish).

The service here is fantastic, staff were constantly refilling our water glasses every 5 minutes, and our food came out within 10 minutes of ordering.
I highly recommend this place, although it can be quite noisy, we thought the food was to-die-for and cannot wait to go back!

I like the fact they mark out 'gluten free' items on their menu, very helpful for us Coeliacs! I thoroughly enjoyed the salt and pepper squid, very tasty. We had the cubed Angus beef which was tasty and goat curry, even tastier but quite fatty. Nonetheless, we did enjoy it, although will agree with other reviews that it is certainly not a cheap eat.

Had a great experience here on Saturday night. Yukako is very friendly and does a great job running the show. Everything on the menu is gluten free, which is fantastic. Thoroughly enjoyed the chicken tonkatsu and salmon sashimi. Will definitely be back soon!

I got takeaway from here recently. I have to say, the Beef Massaman was great, however, we also ordered "BBQ PorK" and "Honey Chicken" - my advice? Don't bother with either of those! I nearly gagged trying to eat the pork, it was so tough and chewy, very old meat I am guessing, and the honey chicken had absolutely no flavour. Probably won't be dining here again.

Easily the best Indian restaurant I've ever been to in Sydney! They are also a professional member of the Coeliac Society, basically everything on their menu bar the naan bread is gluten free. The pondi prawn curry is sensational, and other favourites include palak paneer (cottage cheese in spinach curry), the butter chicken (mouthwatering) and the spinach lamb. Just brilliant!

Went here recently on a Saturday night. Hostess was very helpful and knowledgeable when it came to my gluten-free request (she said her sister is a coeliac, too). Food was great and reasonably priced, great location downstairs and outdoors on the harbour. Will definitely visit again!

Went to this place recently after reading the reviews below. I have to say, we were bitterly disappointed. Service was terrible, our entree was delivered with our mains! We had to request cracked pepper and parmesan cheese, it was not voluntarily offered to us. Our pasta dishes left alot to be desired, I ordered spaghetti with arriabiata sauce and it was so hot (chilli) I couldn't even finish it, mouth was on fire, not very enjoyable!

Boyfriend's meatball dish was pretty paltry, about 5 meatballs the size of 10c pieces. Actual pasta sauce was like someone had tipped a watered down can of tomatoes over the top of the pasta, extremely bland. This place is very overpriced, wait staff are unfriendly and inefficient, won't be eating there again.
