Really good, fairly priced desserts. Hot chocolate was pretty good too. Location City Centre
I went here for a late lunch and so far, it’s not anywhere near as busy as the sushi train down the road. This presents a bit of an issue if you take anything off the conveyor belt as chances are, it has probably been sitting there doing several rounds before you get to it. […]
This place does, as many have already remarked, indeed look a lot like Melbourne’s Chin Chin. It’s really good that we’re starting to see dining places like this in Adelaide. I just wish though, that people tried harder to develop a unique Adelaidian style of interior design rather than aping current trends. I know I […]
Quite basic. It’s okay food but if this is your bench mark for cheap Vietnamese food, you need to dine out more 🙂 1 Helpful vote Location Fullarton
Bread rolls are okay. Have had better though Location Henley Beach Road, Mile End, Adelaide, SA
Tuesday all-you-can-eat chicken wings for $20. I’m a little conflicted on this price – it IS expensive, plus it’s time restricted to 1 hour. At the same time though, these were pretty good chicken wings. As decent as any up-market Americana diner. Sure the presentation could do with some work (serve it on a chopping […]
They’ve got their pastry right. They could wrap anything in it and it would taste good Location Rundle Street, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
Ignore the bad ratings – this place is great on all counts: food, service and atmosphere. It might have had service issues in its early days due to the layout of the place but on a recent visit I felt very well looked after. Tip worthy service and top quality food with the best onion […]
Burger aside, do people really think a can of soft drink and a cup of standard frozen chips is worth paying $6 for? Applying this same logic to the burger I then realised I’d been duped into paying $11 for what is essentially the same as a regular fast food outlet burger. Okay but certainly […]
We come from Adelaide just to have the rolls here. Superb! Location Richmond, Melbourne
Pricy but very yummy cup cakes Location Gouger Street, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
Nice bento boxes in a nice quiet setting Location Gawler Place, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
This place is like BBQ city but with better service, cleaner cutlery and better decor. Lunch time prices are cheap and the meat good (albeit, a smidge less than I would like). Worth transitioning to. Location Gouger Street, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
Was initially put off by the bad reviews but after a $10 BBQ quail and rice dish can’t wait to come back and try everything else. Yummy!!! 1 Helpful vote Location Main South Road, O’halloran Hill, Adelaide, SA
Evidently the low rating and bad reviews on here have not affected business here. Or maybe something has changed which is bringing people back? Granted it was a Friday night, but this place was packed. We were served quickly and our food arrived promptly thereafter. The chicken larb was tasty, likewise the stir fry. Midrange […]
Worth revisiting. Simple good food. Pricing is pretty fair as far as up market burger joints go. I guess what you’re paying extra for (over a hit and miss Hungry Jacks or McDonalds) is the consistency and ambience of polished concrete. Location The Parade, Norwood, Adelaide, SA
Curious what counts as bad service. Had absolutely no issues with it and food was lovely. Price was very fair and setting was very comfortable too. Location Greenacres
This place has potential. If the owners are reading this, just lightly re-bake your bread or invest in something that keeps it warm and crunchy. Bread roll fillings are spot on, but the bread was a bit sad. Location Goodwood Road, Goodwood, Adelaide, SA
I really really like the hot sesame balls in syrup here and for $5 it’s cheap cheap cheap. Much like the decor. Owner needs to start replacing some of it (in particular the sticky frayed menus) before this place starts to resemble La Sing Location Gouger Street, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
This is a mid range restaurant in price, quality and quantity. Flavour wise, everything was quite one dimensional. Salt and pepper fish was quite salty, stir fry was smothered in sweet chilli sauce, and everything else (a duck curry and a soup) just tasted of coconut milk. But you know what? I liked it. Service […]
Comme ci comme ca. I have to be a bit generous when reviewing this place. After all, Adelaide doesn’t exactly have a lot of French eateries. At the most rudimentry level, Le Carpe Diem is a nice place to have a coffee and pastry. The crepes however, are probably worth giving a miss. The nice […]
I…kinda liked it?. Technically, creating good desserts without eggs is a pretty amazing achievement. However, if you’re not allergic to eggs, it’s probably easier to give the queues a miss. Perfectly decent food, just not worth lining up for. Location Goodwood Road, Goodwood, Adelaide, SA
If money was no object…. …then I would dine here more. Faultless service, lovely atmosphere, and save for one dish (a rather meh grilled mushroom) everything was spot on and perfect. 3 Votes for helpful Location Melbourne Street, North Adelaide, Adelaide, SA
A challenge for those afraid of blood/plasma. So, I know it’s not very sophisticated, but I generally like my red meat to be more done than rare. And when it comes to chicken, that’s not ever meant to be rare right? Well if you’re like me, you might find eating here to be a slightly […]
Straight forward and tasty. Unpretentious, reasonably priced good food. Not much more to say. Location Semaphore Road, Semaphore, Adelaide, SA
Happy discovery. I found this diminutive little restaurant while one the search for another eatery for lunch. I see the price of the lunch box specials has gone up since other reviewers here have been, but it’s still a very good value feed for around $15. The Korean chilli pork I had was very hearty […]
It is with great regret…. …that I report that Ding Hao still is amongst the best yum cha you can get in Adelaide. Why regretful? Because the setting is getting more and more dire with each visit. So I am conflicted; on one hand, the food here is awesome, but on the other hand, do […]
I think the good company I was with elevated my appreciation of Eros. I certainly didn’t find it any at all bad as the previous reviewers here. It is expensive, but given that its on Rundle Street that’s to be expected. As for the food itself? Neither bad or spectacular. Only thing of note was […]
You know those food obsessed Asians you see taking photos of their meals in restaurants, talking about how they could have done so and so better? Well it seems they’ve taken the leap, gotten a group of their friends together and taken on two of the biggest food trends in Adelaide at the moment: food […]
It seems this place has finally snapped the dreaded curse of the far back corner of the food court. Lots of good eateries have been and gone here (I still miss the Viet crepe place! Absolute travesty given you couldn’t get the stuff they made in any Viet restaurant in Adelaide) but this one looks […]
I love it when you visit a new place and that first bite you take of a meal confirms why you try different eateries. Great bread rolls, lovely soft and flakey. Generous filling and fair prices. One to ear mark. Location Churchill Road, Prospect, Adelaide, SA
This almost feels like the sort of meal you’d have camping. Cold, basic and wrapped in foil. Location Prospect Road, Prospect, Adelaide, SA
I remember visiting the buffet here for lunch ages ago and not being very impressed but had the dinner works recently and got to say I really enjoyed myself. More variety and with more people eating for dinner, fresher pizzas/food. For the price ($20 pp), the food was pretty good and it’s a great place […]
Absolutely huge servings of fries/wedges for the price. Good place to take someone for a shared lunch. Just make it a slightly late one. That way you’ll actually be able to hear each other talk! Location City Centre
If I could fault this place I’d say the setting is a little cold/harsh. Otherwise everything else is excellent. Worth visiting if you’re in the area. 1 Helpful vote Location North East Road, Greenacres, Adelaide, SA
Very delicate pastries but can be quite expensive ($10 for a small quiche, close to $4 for a small macron). Also, while I didn’t notice this personally, my lunch friends found the service to be a bit unfriendly. Location King William Road, Hyde Park, Adelaide, SA
A cosy and comfy little cafe with super friendly service. I had a salmon and avocado croissant here and it was absolutely superb. Location King William Road, Unley, Adelaide, SA
OMGNOMNOMNOM. Spicy choritzo hotdog with onion strings. That alone should be enough to motivate you to go try this place out. Heck, just re-reading those words makes my mouth salivate at the memory of it. Mmmm! Location Gawler Place, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
Don’t get the fisso menu. Nice food, but fairly dim and noisy setting. Also, contrary to what everyone else here has said, don’t get the fisso “let us feed you” dinner menu. For the same cost, you will be able to try more by ordering items individually, with the added benefit of being able to […]
Meaty. My work isn’t really close to any Soonta outlets so I’m always trying to manufacture excuses to go here. The bread rolls are probably the best you can get in Adelaide (unfortunately Adelaide has nothing even remotely close to what is available in Melbourne or Sydney), are fairly priced AND don’t contain lettuce. If […]
Cheery place. You know this place is going to be good the moment you walk in the door, greeted by the warm smell of tasty baked goods. Then you look at the menu board and realise you want to try everything on it. But it’s okay – it seems everyone else has this dilemma too! […]
Unidentified Jazz Music. Good service, okaaaay food…but I struggle to find anything else to say about this place. Wish they could have told me what the Asian Jazz music they were playing was though. Da da da daaa, da da da daa daa, dum dum dum… Location City Centre
It’s just a burger…. Unremarkable. Chips are different (skins on), but nothing really to rave about. Location Rundle Mall, City Centre, Adelaide, SA
Mmmm carbs…. Nano is one of those really nice understated parts of Adelaide. When I remarked to my lunch buddy that I felt we’d been transported to Italy, she told me Nano was actually better than her experience of Italy! I must have been in a really romantic mood though – even though it was […]
I’m not really sure how anyone could dislike this place. Those negative reviewers must have been really really unlucky! Took my Asian parents here for a weekend lunch and they are probably the toughest food critics ever. Food must be tasty, healthy and cheap. This place delivers on all three. Even my dad who is […]
For some reason I had come to typify yiroses (what exactly is the plural of yiros anyway?) as heavy and greasy. This place has made me realise that a yiros can actually be tasty while still being healthy. Amazing right? The yiroses come in two sizes. I had a very decent “small” which makes me […]
This food here is AMAZING. As everyone else has said, the decor is pretty dire but I like to think it adds to the authenticity of the place. Cheap, tasty, incredibly fast service plus, it’s open super late. Highly highly recommended – like their butter chicken! Location Main North Road, Enfield, Adelaide, SA
I love supporting an underdog. Went here alone for lunch and left feeling full and satisfied. Three yum cha dishes for under $20. Pretty reasonable I think. If you bring a friend I’d imagine you’d probably get more value and variety per person. Don’t understand the overly dramatic negative reviews though. I find it suspicious […]
I had the cola ribs with apple slaw. Pretty good, nice decent serving for the price. My friends’ main meals looked like entrees but everyone was very happy – especially with their creme brûlée desserts. Service is pretty laid back. Good place to go if you’re not in a hurry and don’t want huge portions. […]
Cosi cosi. This would be a good lunch place to take an out of town business/suited colleague. Smart decor, unobtrusive but attentive service, decent (albeit expensive) safe food. Rich food (I swear everything came with mayo in/on/with it) for a well to do crowd. Location City Centre
