Came here for coffee and mont Blanc, I just got back from Paris and I wanted to see how this one would compare. Coffee was average and the MB was sickly sweet. Service was fast even though they were busy late Sunday afternoon due to location in a food court. Prices are on the higher end, but you are paying for quality. Will come back to try their other desserts.

I have seen many people dining here and it seems to be really busy but as my mum was craving tiramisu, we took away a slice of that along with the caramel mud cake. We had a lovely lady who was very friendly and to take away it's $1 cheaper. Price is your usual Sydney price and While the tiramisu with the crunch sugared almond sprinkled on top was nice, we found the caramel mud cake a bit too dry (cake).

I came here for lunch one Saturday as my mum was craving seafood laksa and it definitely did not disappoint.

It wasn't crazy busy, but we went there early and there were a few patrons enjoying their food, slurping away, so my husband bit the same and opted for the Seafood laksa while I went for the daily special which was har meme seafood pieces II clear soup. As the weather was very chilly, it was perfect! I didn't enjoy the soup as much as it was a bit salty but tasty nevertheless, I would like to try their other special dishes!

I have walked past this restaurant many times and didn't think much of it until I was invited to lunch there with a few work colleagues. Stepping inside the interior is clean, Bright and feels like a fine dining restaurant. Service is professional and it got busy with corporate diners out for lunch. Portions are generous and there is variety on the menu to please everyone. I enjoyed my salmon and the white chocolate cheesecake was a delicious way to end the meal.

My family came here for lunch on Anzac day and since I had a reservation, we were seated straight away to a table by the window. Service was very friendly (which was a nice surprise considering the complaints about service here). Most of us ordered pork ribs which are still tasty and the full rack is a nice portion for the men on the table. Chips are bland and I ordered thr chicken burger which was a mistake. Stick with their ribs and go to grill'd just a few shops up for great variety of burgers.

May 11, 2009 - I prefer this venue to the one at Bondi because the service is much better! We were seated at 6 pm and had to leave by 7.45 pm which was no problem as the food comes out quickly so we were in and out in 1 hour! It was great timing as we wanted to watch the fireworks at Darling Harbour at 7.30 pm.

The pork ribs were tasty, a bit on the dry side tonite but it was still good and we will be back. Must book as it is so popular that there is always a group of people waiting at the bar for tables.

I didn't come here for food but a pre dinner drink from the bar. As the weather was nice, my parents and I grabbed a quick drink and sat with a view of darling harbour. Due to location, the drink and food prices are definitely higher end. Service was quick and there were plenty of tables for people to grab a drink and people watch!

I was very surprised at how empty the restaurant was for a Friday night! It was only two table of diners so it ruined the ambience even the interior was nice with beautiful comfy chairs. Still as a result, service was prompt and very friendly.

Our table opted the a la carte option and I really enjoyed my Shroom, the scallops And the beautiful Flowers in the window was amazingly presented on the plate. The third course veal and duck was very average in taste with fellow diners saying the duck was over salted. I loved the taste of mums coffee, toffee, crunch! But there was more to come with coffee, tea and their famous petit four tray with a colorful array of chocolate, and sweets! You feel like a kid in a candy store! We had a nice bottle of wine as well.

I'm glad I got to try Arras but I don't think I'll be back due to so many restaurant I want to try in Sydney!

I came here to get the Brazilian blowout treatment from a recommendation of a work colleague. Even though Macquarie Park is out of my way, I have read positive reviews about this hair dresser so I thought it would be worth the trip.

Very friendly staff and Amanda was really nice, while its $270 for the treatment it has only been one week and it seems pretty good so far. Hair is so smooth and shiny. They recommend only washing your hair 2 a week which is difficult for me as I hit the gym after work 4-5 times a week. So I'll see how long it will last.

But I have no regrets going here! Will def be back if it lasts a few months.

I have dined at a few nice Greek restaurants in the city and haven't been to Diethnes until today where a large group of work colleagues came here for lunch. You walk downstairs and is greeted by waiters who lead you to your table. As it was a Friday lunch, there were many diners dining.

To make it easy we ordered the banquet menu and they even allowed us to order the dinner banquet menu for lunch. As soon as we ordered, food came out from the kitchen with the highlight being the lamb. The other dishes I found too oily or just average. Definitely an abundance of food and everyone walked out full!

I have tried their sandwiches for lunch but they are bland and expensive. But then again so are their cakes and drinks! Still it's a nice cafe to sit with gfs for their mocha and cakes then take away some sweet treats for later. Service can be a hit or miss depending on how busy they are.
