My friend and I dined here on a Saturday night before a late night movie and were very disappointed in many things. We ordered the banquet which was reasonably priced at $30 pp, however, surprisingly it is not good value considering we didn't eat most of the mediocre dishes that came out.

We were seated upstairs near the window area which was dirty with torn posters on the wall. We had BYO'd and were disappointed that they were not able to provide wine glasses to drink from.

The food was nothing to write home about with the bread tasting like day-old store bought bread and the other dishes were not an improvement. The service was indifferent but quick. With so many other Lebanese restaurants to choose from in Sydney, I would not consider returning here.

Excellent value for money $35 all you can eat BBQ meat, pineapple, zucchini, cheese and set sides of beans, rice and potato salad. I've been here twice both times as a group of four and the service we received on a Saturday night was good considering the type of 'restaurant' this is and how busy they were.

The food was filling and we were fortunate that we had a good variety of BBQ meats and vegetables coming to our table (we were in the centre of the middle table towards the back) and the waitress happily replenished our sides and drinks.
When we left we strolled across the road for a delicious ice-cream which also gave us an opportunity to chat without the noise of churrasco (it is very busy!).

I will return (again) and recommend for groups, this is not the place to go for a romantic dinner.

I was one of a group of 15 on a Friday night which was quite busy. Some of us chose the banquet (minimum of six is required) which I think was okay value because of the carafe of sangria thrown in, otherwise, it is expensive for Spanish food. The only menu item I enjoyed was the mushrooms although I am not really sure how Spanish that dish was and the sangria was a good mix.

The food is nowhere near the best that I have tasted and the service was pretty poor and slow. The waitress couldn't understand basic instructions for example when one from the table ordered a vodka and orange juice she did not understand and it took two other wait staff to come to our table before the drink order was taken. Very unacceptable.

We all were surprised when the bill came out that the vodka had cost her $7.50 with OJ $1.25 total for that drink = $8.75. Over-priced considering there is alot of nearby quality competition much more fairly priced. The dancers wore flaming red dresses and looked great but they appeared bored not showing any enthusiasm and after the first fifteen seconds our table stopped watching, but we couldn't avoid listening to them.

I do not intend to dine here again and do not recommend.

We went to Nosto's on a Saturday night (so no BYO) and chose the banquet. Not only was it great value for money but the food was fresh and tasty with a good balance of light and heavy dishes. I loved the lamb, tender and succulent. The service was a llittle haphazard but always friendly and accommodating once you manage to flag someone down. Would dine here again and recommend for quality Greek food.
