I went here with a group of 8 to celebrate my friend's birthday. We all ordered 3-course set lunch menu, the food size was small (for the guys) but the servings were just right for us girls. The scallops entree was the best one of three (there was a pork salad and also a pumpkin soup). My barramundi main was also good, even the fancy bangers & mash were well received by my friends. Their desserts were simply divine. $42 for a 3 course lunch is actually good value considering other place would charge that much for just a main.

The place is actually really nice, ambience is also good but I think the food is slightly (?) overpriced. I mean, I wouldn't go there myself if I had to pay for it. I was taken there by my boyfriend, he seemed to enjoy it. I kinda did but as I said, I was disappointed with my Organic Chicken "Cacciatore", Chilli, Rosemary, Garlic, Braised Chicory ($29), I could get better value food for that price. Gotta say, service was really good though. I love the complimentary bread they provide.

We sat down at around 7:45 and didn't get our ordered entree til around 8:30 and our mains at 9! Luckily the mains were lovely or else it would've been a bad experience. I felt sorry for the group of 8 next to us because they were there for 2 hours and all they've had were beers and have waited for their meals for 2 hours. A table who came after us were served their drinks and food way before both of us! I guess they were VIP coz the senior staff was hobnobbing with them. Hmmmmm

Good food but service is lacking. Might try it again just to see if they're going to improve.

I've been here twice and on both occasions, I've ordered the mousaka. It's tasty and very filling. Everyone else in the table loved their food. Would be going back there again. It's value for money, the other Greek restaurants seem to charge exorbitant prices.

They have an excellent bento deal between 3-5, too bad it's around the time when no one eats. Food here's good, I always come here for their bentos. Don't get their teppanyaki, it's not worth it. The amount you've paid and the servings you get will leave you disappointed. Food's good though. It's a toss up between Kaneda and Kimurakan.

If you like fried japanese food, the Kimurakan Bento is the one to order. It has everything! Oysters, prawns, pippies, fried tofu (yum), salad, gyoza, spring roll, potato cake, katsu pork, tatsuta chicken, crab claw, takoyaki. *drools* It comes with miso soup or soft drink or tea (ice/hot).

Pretty good value for money. I've taken a few people there now and only I didn't seem to like it, everyone else did. It's a toss up between Kaneda for sure!

I went here when they first opened. Food was good, even came with a few friends but suddenly in 2007, they changed the menu, increased the prices, removed the favorites and the quality has gone down. It was disgusting. Haven't been back since.

I miss this place, I used to go there every Friday with my boyfriend but now that he works in the CBD, we rarely go. My absolute fave is the Pop Chicken! The taste is just good! The seafood entree plate is nice too. I've brought a few friends here and they all enjoyed it.

The ambience was actually good but for someone who wears glasses, it seemed pretty dark so ambience is a 5 for me. Service was good, very knowledgeable waitress but I'm not sure about the value. The food is good but sounds weird at the same time, caramel that's salted?! I had a special and it was salmon, it was nice. Yum yum.

If this is the Railway Club then what I have to write will apply to this place. Love their steaks! I think it's more worth it. The service is a bit slow but who cares, because the food is awesome!!! LOVE IT! My boyfriend and I go there once a fortnight/month after work. (We live far from it.) I highly recommend it.
