    I love the place, the food is always great. This time was a little disappointing though. I ordered the Parklands Bowl, which delicious but not big enough at $24.

    Eatien here heaps, always pretty good even though above averages prices, probably the last time for a while though now. Table of 15- all ordered at the same time, half the table had eaten before the other half was actually given their food. Calamari was not very nice, tasted like it was frozen, 2 people ordered it, both didnt eat it. Ordered Pork Belly $40, was actually served what looked like two strip's of pork rashers, would cost about $5 at Coles to buy yourself. Overpriced, wasn't even busy to justify the poor miss timing of food service. Couldn't be bothered to complain on the day. Just won't rush back again. A shame really.
