Nothing too much to say, food was ordinary and really I think they rely on tourist trade and don't expect or care if you are a regular, will try one of the newer restaurants closer to the entertainment centre next time.

The restaurant itself inside is beautiful, however outside is realy quite dowdy, I almost turned away befire entering as it looked quite dirty from outside, this is definitley not the case, comon guys smartne it up a little bit, food was excellent, however service whilst freindly was not up to par with Sydney restaurants, eg when ordereing a bottle wine it is customary for the patron to try before all glasses are poured this did not happen at all, also menu has not chicken, I like chicken and it should be an option, I do not like game, goat or rabbit, this restaurant is just trying a little too hard and needs to get the basics right first, also in my opinion entrees and desserts are overpriced for what they although coffee at the end was delightful.

I have been to this restaurant many times (at least 10) since it opened, when it first opened the food and value where excellent and I was so happy that we finally had a great restaurant in Kellyville that was close to home, I have to say the quality of the food has decreased substantially and does not taste so fresh at all, what a shame...

Food: not bad plenty to choose from. Ambience: inside nicely decorated but its still only a cafe in a local shopping centre very noisy too, also heating was way too high and uncomfortable. Service: ok nothing more. Value expensive 6 ate there and it was byo, not all of us had entree and not all had dessert and it was $390 probably will not go back soon, there is much better in the Hills than this.

New review 18/6/11: We went here on my suggestion with friends and so wish we had not, first disappointment this restaurant tries to fit 2 settings 6 to 8 pm and then later, I soooooo hate this practice, if this is what a restaurant wants then offer a discount for the earlier sitting, we agreed because our memories were of restaurant that was outstanding and we were happy to comply, once there its obvious that the table had not been rebooked even though we felt rushed, secondly we were told no byo on Saturday nights and we complied, however, the table next to us byo'd wine and nothing was said, one rule for some and one for others?

Music was good but way too loud also 2 of our chairs were rickety and unstable.
Food was bland and unappetising and much smaller servings than I recall.
Value, so so, but I want good food and am prepared to pay extra this food was below average.

Earlier Review: A very nice restaurant with tasty food, but the entrees were a bit bland overall too much meat, but next time I will maybe try the banquet.

Went here last night with a group of 9 friends and it was a nice unpretentious restaurant:

Food: just what you expect I asked for a combination that was not on the menu and was easily accommodated meals sizes are not large but this is fine as not overwhelming

Ambience: very ordinary and tired but clean enough. Service: probably could have done with additional wait staff but we were in no hurry so that was fine by us. Value good value 10 people $405(after $30 voucher) and byo wine is always good.

6 of us dined here last Saturday night, we arrived to a beautiful historic pub building that had been restored, welcoming lights etc so far excellent. Inside we were seated on uncomfortable modern melamine seats that where cold, as cold and uninviting as the temperature in the room we were seated in not a good start for a winters night in Richmond.

The menu was a maze of unknown and unfamiliar food so we went with the waiters suggestion that he choose for us and yes he was aware that because there were six of us some dishes would need to be adjusted for all to share, this did not happen, constantly we received dishes with enough only for 4 people which meant that someone missed out and we had to reorder another.

Most of the food was bland but fresh enough but not what I expected of spanish food, lots of bread was supplied which to me seemed to be a cheap filler, the desserts were average at best. Another thing was we were not supplied with serving implements unless requested very annoying when 6 people are sharing.

Overall very expensive we had a discount card which gave us $30 of the bill and still it came to $420, hellooo! this is Richmond not Sydney with Harbour views.
I would not bother again way to expensive for an uninspiring meal.

We went here for a birthday celebration, it is a very noisy restaurant but I think that's part of the atmosphere for the type of food that is served, plenty of food offered and all except one server where lovely. I really loved the pineapple skewers at the end.

The words Packed in Like Sardines comes to my mind, food is tasteless and cold, really ordinary.

Revisited April 2011: We went back here because really they are one of a few coffee shops in Rouse Hill, what a mistake, inefficient lazy staff, horrible food, warning! Do not go there, I know I never will again.
