We recently had our post wedding recovery lunch at the Sutton Forest Inn and can't speak highly enough of the staff and service here.

Such an awesome place and they looked after us so well. Perfect for warm cosy lunch on a colder day! Thank you everyone at Sutton Forest Inn for being awesome!

We had an amazing meal here on friday night. The restaurant was rather quiet, but still felt cozy and welcoming. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable about all the food and wine options.

Sitting across from the open kitchen was interesting and much more fun than I thought it would be. Every course of the degustation we had was amazing. The duck egg was a standout, as was the lamb and the dessert. Please visit here if you get the chance, I will be back for sure!

The vets and team at Croydon park veterinary clinic are amazing. Kind and lovely to us and our pets, they are helpful and caring.

We had a disappointing lunch service at Pink Salt. A group of us booked for lunch (in a near empty restaurant) and struggled to get enough drink service for our large table (even though we ordered the premium beverage package). Requests for water and sparkling water went unfulfilled, which was very uncomfortable given the awnings were down out the front where we were seated, again requests for them to be lifted were initially ignored.

The food at Pink Salt was satisfactory, although the desserts were underwhelming on the whole. While we still had a great time, the service left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, I do not think any of us would return.

A bit more expensive than other places along liverpool road, but great ambience, it was packed on sunday night. Great service and the food was awesome.

Bread and dips to start were terrible. The bread was lovely, but a tasteless bean dip did nothing to excite, along with the chunk of cheddar and 2 cherry tomatoes cut in half, boring, for the price of $18!

Mains were better. Smallish portions for the price, but good flavours. Salted rosemary chicken went over well, also the pumpkin ravioli but left hungry.
Most of the service was great and attentive.

I had hyped up the deg at Alio and I was left disappointed overall. When the sorbet is the highlight of the meal you have to be concerned! Pumpkin soup and grisini with parmesan to start was lovely. Gravlax was mostly tomato and red onion and the risotto (which was not exciting in the least) was served in a dollop on a flat large dinner plate, with the following lamb rack served in a deep bowl/plate - very hard to eat. Presentation of those middle dishes was not exciting or well though out.

I was really excited about going but the food didn't live up to standard. As I mentioned the coconut and lime sorbet was the standout - creamy and not too sweet. Really refreshed the palate, maybe should have been brought out between the 3 seafood dishes in a row, before the meat.

Service was wonderful - all waitstaff were great, although a bit inconsistent when bringing dishes out (some announced the whole dish, others just presented the plates and left) but was wonderful all in all. Service between courses was a little too slow.

Loved firefly. Came here recently with a group of 6. The waiters were all lovely and very attentive. Drinks are a little exxy - I realise it's a wine bar, but hard to swallow when the cheapest bottle is $45! We had the $38 banquet and I rolled out of there. It was all delish!

Edit review: Ordered takeaway and was told it would be there within the hour. At the one hour mark, I called and was told the driver left half an hour ago and he should be there shortly.

Called again at 1:20 minutes and was told the drive was 2 minutes away. I asked for a discount, but was told they could offer me a complimentary naan next time I order. We received the food after almost 1:30 minutes and it was cold. No apology at all from the driver.

Not impressed Surjits. For $32 for two curries and rice I won't be bothering with you again. Because as nice as your butter chicken is, it taste horrible when it's cold!

Old review: Ordered takeaway last nite (hence, mid score for ambience) and wow it was great. Super speedy, they quoted an hour wait, but I'm sure it only took 30 minutes to arrive. Great value. Guy who delivered was lovely and polite with a big smile on his face. Best butter chicken I've had in a while, slighty smokey flavour with generous amounts of actually chicken. Really enjoyed the naan's too. 4 dishes, 4 rice and 4 naan's for only $75. Great value.

Had a lovely breakfast here. Good coffee and service. Prices were a little exxy (more expensive than a Sydney breakfast) but tasty. We had the breaky bruschetta with bacon, poached eggs and avocado. I would have preferred the balsamic reduction drizzled on the dish rather than around the plate, purely to add to the flavour. Nice big juice glasses as well - yumyum.
