Went here for lunch today, and will not be bothering again, the food was overpriced, and nothing marvelous, not even dressing on one of my companions salad, and only 1 fig, it was supposed to be Fig Salad.

Compared to the roast dinner somewhere else (2 blocks up) the spitroast was foul. Do not bother. Oh and well done on the refurb, it looks great but catering to only the smokers of Surrey Hills. Too bad for the rest of us huh?

Tastevin Bistro & Wine Bar, Darlinghurst

Restaurants, Bars, French, Modern Australian, Good For Groups

Overall 8.6  66

9.8 Highly Recommended

Food  10      Drinks  10      Ambience  10      Service  10      Value  9     


We dined here last night and had a wonderful meal. The service was second to none with wait staff very knowledgeable and ready to recommend the wines to go with our meals.

The dishes we ordered, Pork and Duck were beautifully cooked and we highly recommend them. The only problem was with 6 delectable mains on offer it was very hard to choose just the one. My husband and I had a wonderful romantic dinner at Tastevin and urge you to try it.

We had lunch here today trying the Menu of the Day. The cocktail was superb as was the entree. Unfortunately my husbands beautifully presented main of chicken was not cooked properly, with only an apology on offer this marred the luncheon somewhat.

We visited Blue Orange for the second time and were not disappointed. The evening was wonderful, great staff ,amazing food, and a extensive menu. We were on a voucher and received the exact same food and service as full paying patrons. Definitely worth a third visit!

We went here on a voucher and will Never return. We were put in a side room which was damp and freezing cold. The service was appalling, we had better service actually in Russia!.

Our food, both entree and main were sent back as served on cold plates so food was cold. The wait staff were also pushy, one pushed me out of the way to get through the door first! On our voucher we were to get 4 Russian drinks, I do not think normal run of the mill coffee is Russian. Over all a complete rip off. This restaurant is tired and not at all worth the price.

Schnitzel House Double Bay (formerly Una's Cafe Restaurant), Double Bay

Cafes, Austrian, European, German, Modern Australian

Overall 6.9  14

2.5 Not Recommended

Food  3      Ambience  2      Service  1      Value  4     


We ate here this evening, and much to our dismay was terrible. The food was cold, much to the waitresses protestations as to the "stove not working" as we were sat by the kitchen (a dreadful table even though we had booked in advance) we saw a can of sauce opened and thrown into a saucepan and then served - cold. We finally received the bill and had been overcharged. My husband went to pay and enquire, he even gave them a chance and asked if was a busy night. The reply was "no - not really". Needless to say we could not get out of Double Bay fast enough and will not be returning to the Schnitzel House. Compaired to Una's on Victoria Road, the Double Bay fare is by far insuperior as are the wait staff.
