Although the food is not excellent, we do love coming to this place because it is local to us and it has a nice atmosphere. We all love the bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar dip, and our children like sharing the canelloni. We often share a few entrees, like the mushrooms on bread, the anchovies and the calves liver. All quite rich and delicious. Some of the mains are not very good. All servings are huge (you have been warned), so an entree size pasta is generally enough for most people.

The velvety butter chicken (mild) was yummy because the sauce was smooth and creamy, and the chicken pieces were well cooked. We also ate the beef dum alu (hot), which was hot and aromatic. The chickpeas and potatoes (medium) were also tasty. We ordered online. The website was easy to use, and the delivery to O'Connor was fairly quick. The meals arrived hot, even the naan. We'll definitely order again and try some other dishes.

We eat here regularly. The dumplings rival those of the best Shanghai restaurants in Sydney's 'Little Shanghai', Ashfield. We love lamb skewers, pan fried pork buns, steamed pork and chive dumplings and shallot pancake. Yum! Take away service is good too. Manager/owner assured us they do not use any preservatives or MSG.

Had a family dinner here one Friday night after shopping. We were lucky to get a table as it seemed fully booked. The service was great, restaurant had a good 'feel' and the flavours were lovely. Thought the vindaloo was a little too hot to taste, though. Would not order that again, or would ask for a milder dish.

Popped in for a quick but intimate birthday lunch after shopping in the Canberra Centre. Ordered slow-cooked lamb shanks and chicken tagine, with a glass of house red. Both delicious! Memories of France came flooding back. We will definitely go back. Front of house waiter (the owner, perhaps) was lovely too.

Went for a small group dinner with two kids and we had a lovely time. While the food was not as tasty as we would have liked, the entrees were good (esp the twice cooked French onion soufflé and pan fried scallops), the mains were disappointing but the servings were generous. The pork belly lacked flavour, the crackling leathery in parts and it tasted too fatty.

Chicken confit was an odd choice, duck would have been more special, it just tasted like home-cooked chicken. An extensive but pricey wine list. The atmosphere was great. Both adults had a great time and kids did too. We'd go back again for a special occasion with visitors.

I ate laksa here once and it was ok. When I took my family there for a meal, the food was terrible. We could not even eat the beef rendang because it tasted very bad. We politely and quietly mentioned this to the waitress, who told the senior staff. He was very rude to us about it and expected us to pay for it. We will not return and I would not recommend it to anyone. In my opinion, this food is neither authentic nor tasty.

At work, we have a takeaway feast from here some lunchtimes and the food is always fantastic. Great dips, fresh bread and amazing zucchini balls. A tasty favourite!

After many attempts, we finally got into this little oasis (its always so busy). We loved the fried tofu and cold soba noodles, and our kids loved the chicken teriyaki and rice. It is a little bit pricey but our tastebuds were very satisfied!
