The pizzas here were FANTASTIC, but I worry about the overall vibe of the place going into the future. Gone is the fireplace and couches, gone are the booths, gone are the board games (I think), in are folded white napkins, Harwood tables and stylish chairs. Don't get me wrong, the food and service is still very good, but I liked the more relaxed feel of Isa Brown. Hopefully they'll return some of the fun back to the place?

Only got delivery, but the food was amazing. Tandoori chicken almost perfect (little tough in parts, but others just fell off the bone), massive servings at cheap prices. Will pay a visit for sure!
Update: So after a few takeaways I decided to take my girlfriend here for a meal, and was really disappointed, but not with the food! When I was there, granted it was 9:30, so it'd be a little on the quiet side, but no one was dining! After sitting down, my date figured out why - prices are 20% higher for table service!
Goodness gracious - why would anyone sit down for a meal when they can get the same quality for takeaway (and the quality is outstanding) for 1/5 of the price? That explains how the awfully average Curry Club next door is packed while this outstanding place is virtually empty. The food here is so good, but I don't want to be penalized for dining in! Please guys - you're too good of a place to be doing this!

Very impressed with the Pho here, chicken stock is outstanding. Service very attentive, and will quickly fix any mistakes. Was a great bargain, but price rise took that away recently. Still a good place for a decent, inexpensive meal.

Amazingly low prices and the food is pretty good too. The beef and Guinness pie was outstanding, though they burned my date's steak (requested medium) to a crisp. $5 for a pint of Guinness? Impressive.

Best Mexican food I've had in Australia. I make it a point to visit this place when I come visit Sydney. The burritos are what you'd get back in the US. Price is a bit noticeable though, but considering how hard it is to get real Mexican ingredients, it's forgivable.

People here have clearly never had good Mexican if they're rating the food here so highly. Rude, but competent service. Nice decor, but no one returns to a restaurant cause it looks nice. Refried beans from the can, rice was dry, and the beef/chicken burrito was pure cheese, hardly any meat or spices. And small!

What a bizzare menu - half Asian, half Caucasian - but neither I nor my friend had the guts to try the "white people" food. Stuck to the basics, and were competently rewarded. The dessert (strawberry filled crepes with ice cream) was excellent. Should say it's crepes though, not a pancake, as I was expecting something else!

I used to eat all the time with office workers but quit after the 10th time or so they forgot my meal! I've never eaten at a pub so frequently that forgot meals as often as they have. The food's not bad if it finds its way to you!

Spaghetti for the spaghetti and meatballs was badly overcooked and mushy. Meatballs were overcooked and tough. The also didn't clean the tablecloth from what looked like food but felt like wax drippings, only covering it up with a darker tablecloth. Too expensive for the average quality. How do you screw up spaghetti and meatballs?

Dips were excellent, if a little small on the portion sizes. Turkish bread was fantastic and FREE! Mains left a lot to be desired, however, rice was undercooked and clumpy, salad uninspiring, and my chicken kebab came out with hard bits of charcoal on it that crunched my teeth.
Decor was old style and in need of either an update or a good clean. The wait staff though was very pleasant and prompt. Prices very competitive. Special dishonorable mention on the chairs. They're too big for the tables, forcing people to squeeze in and out of spaces. I understand they're trying to fit as many in, but it makes for a rather uncomfortable experience.
