I did the $82 chef’s feed-me menu (with a 32% discount) and it was a crazy amount of food. This was despite me telling the waitress to reduce the amount of food so that it would be suitable for a solo diner. It’s a pity because would have liked to enjoy the dessert in the […]
Drove across town and went in intending to just get a burger and chips (no joke, it’s available for $26 from their “deli”) but ended up sitting for a full $125 tasting menu. So, this is a psychotic amount of food even for groups and is extreme value for sole diners. Wandering in, dressed in […]
Visually nice atmosphere, ruined by brutal music being played too loud. The person serving us, noticing our difficulty with having conversation over the din, said that she “hadn’t played this vinyl before” and “wasn’t expecting it to be like this!”, yet did nothing to turn the volume down. It’s possible this environment is more agreeable […]
Did the $65 feed-me menu for lunch and was a little bit underwhelmed by the food. Potentially as a sole diner, I was deprived of some of the punchier mains. Also, the opening oyster entrée was watery which probably negatively impacted my overall impression of the rest of the menu. However, the service is great […]
Had the $50 Wednesday feed me menu and was very well looked after. The service was well above the level of its casual demeanour. Even though I don’t think the term is used anymore, food was a good hybrid of Italian Asian fusion. Menu Location 47 O’Connell St, North Adelaide SA 5006
Burger x 1,000,000. So intense its straddles the boundary between tasty and disgusting. Have eaten here twice, once when it was in Morphett Vale and again after the move to Colonnades. I say this a lot, but it’s clear this is a small business sweating all the details. Really hope they continue to do well […]
South Australians really take businesses for granted when they stick their necks out to produce something amazing. This place should have lines down the street! The pastries are so good, tasty, beautiful and fairly priced. Absolutely worth revisiting. Location Shop 8/1 Colley Terrace, Glenelg SA 5045
Lots of love has gone into this dessert venture and it looks great. The ice cream flavours are classic Asian nostalgia – I mean durian birthday cake! Might be worth revisiting in summer as I felt a bit miserable here in cold weather… Location 199 Payneham Rd, St Peters SA 5069
A great suburban pizza restaurant serving traditional fare without any of the pretension Location 193 Payneham Rd, St Peters SA 5069
Strange name for a place that seems to specialise in burgers, but after a week of chasing a good burger meal, this was the only place that satisfied Location 146 Gawler Place, Adelaide SA 5000
The perfect sushi train. The quality of the food here is so good and at an incredibly fair price that makes you wonder why you’d even consider take away sushi at those places that either use the wrong rice or cook it wrong and make it gluggy. Service is speedy and faultless. Restaurant fit out […]
I had a really great burger at this modest eatery in the suburbs. Chips were great too. What really makes this place shine however, is the incredible service. You can really tell they are doing their best to cater to customers and take great pride in everything they put out Location 567 Grange Road, Grange […]
This place is great. Tasty food, for very fair prices, in an amazing quirkily designed restaurant that is worth going to alone for that. I don’t know what food mafia they’ve upset to receive the bad reviews they have. My experience was not negative at all and I’ll look forward to coming back. Location Churchill […]
Honestly the best Viet bread rolls in the area. Rolls are very distinctively saucy (hoisin), but this is a perfectly valid and authentic take. They are also the perfect level of crispness, and full of fillings. Service is friendly and great as well. Their spring rolls are pretty ordinary though, as is the dining in […]
If I have a craving for yiros, this is where I go. Filling, flavourful and fast. The yiros here is about the size of your bicep and full of tender meat – and not the processed kind – grilled on a giant spit over charcoal behind the counter. The kid sized, small yiros is about […]
Great food clearly made with love and care. Menu appears to be entirely meat free. If you are a meat eater like me, don’t let this fact discourage you because you won’t miss the meat – a meal here will leave you feeling full, satisfied and happy. Great chips and the most amazing rich and […]
Tasty, generous food, very fair prices, in a laidback, casual atmosphere. The meatball sandwich is incredible – so so good. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available, but this is limited – so either takeaway or come outside of the lunch rush if you expect to dine in. Location Shop 1/89 The Parade, Norwood […]
Excellent and generous curry, naan and rice. When I dined in, there was only one person doing both the orders and serving. They were very attentive and as fast as they could be. Restaurant itself is possibly a little plain / modest but it is quiet and suitable for conversation – not something you can […]
Surprisingly and shockingly good pho. I wasn’t expecting very much given there are not many Asian grocery stores in the area, but the noodles here stand on their own and are very generous and flavourful – lack of smell thanks to covid notwithstanding! My only complaint is the lack of basil accompanying the pho, otherwise […]
Granted these are above average pizzas, but can confirm that it will take you over 2 hours to receive your order. Maybe times will improve once the hype settles down? Alternatively, given this is entirely app based ordering, may I suggest to the owners that they show how long the wait will be before you […]
An interesting dining environment with decent food, if somewhat small ish portions for the price. Dining room is reached via a fake cold room fridge door. On the other side, is a mirror ball lit, disco infused hideaway. It is certainty a novel experience – I just wish some of the theatrics had been extended […]
This is a favourite burger place of mine, not least of all because they regularly have discounts of up to 45% on EatClub. This makes it very hard to resist getting a fancy burger meal for the price of a crappy one at a multinational chain. The only thing that lets this place down is […]
Friendly, cozy and tasty. Overall, I still don’t really “get” ramen, but enjoyed the experience here. The gooey soy egg was a highlight for me, as was the nice mural that extends the full length of the restaurant. Location 150 The Parade, Norwood SA 5067
An appropriately upmarket bbq chicken and chip place in Unley. Fairly priced, great food in generous servings with friendly and efficient service. You can tell they take pride in their food and make everything using good fresh produce. Would be keen to come back and try more of their menu but have to pace myself…! […]
My new favourite pizza place! Super yummy pizzas and sides with choices for vego and vegan eaters. I think it’s a family run operation and like if you were going to someone’s house for a special occasion meal, you get the impression they are super anxious to make sure you are well looked after and […]
Great food, great service, great atmosphere and setting. Vegetarian friendly restaurant with some really superb plant focused dishes. Would recommend this place to anyone! Location 188 Hindley Street, Adelaide SA 5000
Really really really good fried chicken. I was skeptical initially because…well it’s deep fried chicken. How special can you really make it? However the food really exceeded my expectations with the chicken being super crispy, tender and well seasoned. The cheap weekday lunch time specials are going to make this a hard place for me […]
So yes, I only had a pizza here, but wow…I actually don’t know how you could make one any better. It was by far the best pizza that I’ve had. The thin base was just the right thickness; the crust, light, fluffy and blistered ever so perfectly; the toppings, just the right levels of saltiness […]
Amongst the best gelati in Adelaide. Usually there is a very long line out the front of the store but we went late in the night and were served immediately. Very friendly staff who are very prepared to explain and recommend flavours. Partner believes this place to have the best hazelnut gelati in Adelaide and […]
A restaurant with table cloths, attentive table service and enough space between you and other diners. Food is not too bad either. Location 48 Unley Road, Unley SA 5061
First time here on a Friday night, and left pretty happy with this busy suburban Chinese take away. As is expected in this area, the restaurant itself is very small and basic – definitely nothing fancy. However, food, portion sizes, and service were all pretty decent. Was handed my take away with both hands and […]
Very decent Korean fried chicken. Ticks all the boxes: Crispy, succulent and saucy. A KFC lunch time order will take about 15 minutes so take that into account if visiting on a lunch break. Location Shop 5/183-185 King William Road, Hyde Park SA 5061
I enjoyed my ramen in this very cute and stylish shop. Pork was not as tender as I was expecting which made for awkward eating but broth flavour was otherwise very good Location 182 Rundle Street, Adelaide SA 5000
Am a regular to this shop and have enjoyed over several different visits, their chicken, fish and chips. Chips are the best in this area in my opinion! They also do really good cheap weekday lunch deals Location 1/430 Brighton Road, Brighton SA 5048
Fast, tasty and generous food in a modest setting. Great for lunch Location 302a King William Street, Adelaide SA 5000
Great food, generous portions, clearly made with pride and love. Staff were very friendly and happy to explain the extensive menu, pointing out and recommending from the extensive in-house made items. Only minor negative is that there is limited seating on site. 100% would return to try their other items Location 2/160 Hampstead Road, Broadview […]
Really evident these guys care about their food and their customers. Great meals accompanied by service that is both personable and relaxed. The menu is seasonal and on my visit would possibly be a bit limited for non meat eaters. However if that is not a consideration for you, absolutely check this place out Location […]
Very down to earth, no frills eatery that can quickly send out a meal on your limited time lunch break. A stalwart of the markets Location WR6/44-60 Gouger Street, Adelaide SA 5000
Very good suburban fish and chip shop. Great tasting and looking burgers, chips and salad with friendly service. Location 117 King William Road, Hyde Park SA 5061
Service was very good and overall presentation was very appealing. Food was also very accomplished but not to my personal tastes on this occasion. I know the intents are probably different, but having dined at Shobosho, I found that to be much more satisfying. I will say though, that for our lunch, it was a […]
This place is the very definition of cheap and cheerful. Generous serves with unlimited roti with your meal. How people are able to eat more than what comes with your thali is beyond me though as I was stuffed as is. Setting itself is very basic and I think if you are fussy, this may […]
Went here for lunch and really enjoyed the curries in this cosy little restaurant. Service was adequate and fast. Also, I think this is one of the few times I’ve ever had a side of salad / greens with my curry. Not used to seeing that as you often just get the curries in a […]
A modest and casual Korean eatery serving fair Korean fried chicken for this area. Sensible lunch time servings for one with most things costing around the $10 mark. Limited options for vegetarians especially if you do not like tofu. Location 382 Sturt Road, Tonsley SA 5042
Good food and portions, fair prices and efficient service. This is one of the very few Vietnamese places in Adelaide that make Banh Xeo (Viet pancakes) and what’s more, make them well. The menu also has a few other unusual items that I’ve rarely seen in Viet restaurants in Adelaide. It’s worth coming here just […]
Fish and hand cut chips in a modest setting with friendly service. Servings are very generous and prices very fair. It was warm when we visited and quite busy. Despite that, we got our orders quite quickly. Location 22 Saltfleet St, Port Noarlunga SA 5167
This place does a roaring trade on weeknights in the suburbs which is testament to how good it is. No wonder as the food is great and the servings generous. I would suggest going here with a largish group. That way you’ll be able to try more dishes without ending up with too much food. […]
A cafe without any of the pretence, that reminds you of the honest goodness of simple food and sincere service. I’m not sure how busy trade normally is, but I picture this place being a perfect spot for a quiet lunch with a close friend. I look forward very much to returning. Location Morphett Road, […]
This review is for the lunch time roast pork bread roll or “bahn mi” (this misspelling of banh mi…URGH). My main issue with the roll was that it cost $8.90. If it was cheaper, I would be more forgiving. Unfortunately the roast pork was just not that crispy. Maybe the higher than average cost can […]
This review and rating is for the combo Vietnamese bread roll here. Pretty much perfect. $6 for crispy roast pork, chicken, pate, fresh cucumber, chilli and coriander in a lightly oven toasted bread roll. No need to complicate it people. Would gladly return for this roll alone Location Grand Junction Road, Hope Valley, Adelaide, SA
This is the first ramen I’ve had in Adelaide that’s actually made me want to return for more. The broth is moreish, the egg gooey and the meat lusciously tender. I also loved the house made noodles which were the perfect consistency. The yakitori was (as it is usually in other places) pricey but equally […]
