Chutney Mary's Indian Restaurant (12) Subiaco       DanielDan 25-07-2008

Food:
     
Food I have to say was just right there, our entree onion bhaji was crispy and a real delight.

though a bit disappointed with their chicken korma but we were advised well before our order that It's the blandest dish on their menu. But then the goat curry was real treat,,could not stop munching on the meat.And esp their Chicken tikka masala... wow!! have not ever had a thing like that before. The naan bread was o.k though wished it wasn't that closely burnt,but as the waiter said that it is cooked over charcoal I understand the heat is hard to control.

Service:
     
Service was great. We felt comfortable whole night. All The waiters were very friendly and helpful right through the night. Their attitudes itself created a real atmosphere, working like a pack of hungry wolves trying to poach on attention seeking tables. Great team I thought.

Ambience:
     
Loved the atmosphere,was really welcoming and darkly colorful. Though I thought they can renovate the place with better chairs and tables.The pictures on the walls give a wonderful insight into the way of life in india.

Overall:
Great establishment.

Kome Restaurant (2) Subiaco       pensiveperthian 24-07-2008

Food:
     
Went there for a quick lunch for 4 today. I had the wasabi tobiko sushi, which to my disappointment, didn't have a hint of wasabi at all. I would've been better off selecting the normal tobiko sushi and pay a dollar extra. That said, the roll itself was still quite tasty and I don't fault it.

If you want a good deal, I reckon the combo is quite worth it, considering you can choose 2 items out of teriyaki chicken, fish, katsu chicken and karaage for $9.90 (or curries for $11.90?).

I liked their wasabi ice-cream the first time I went there, but unfortunately they only had the green tea flavour this time. Unlucky! Next time perhaps... :)

Service:
     
We were the first table there as it was only 11-ish. Although they gave us the buzzer, they brought our food out to us personally, which I thought was great service. All done with a smile too.

Ambience:
     
Very casual, cafe-like. Nice, chilled and relaxed.

Overall:
Great value for workers in the Subi area. Would recommend the wasabi ice-cream to those game enough to try, provided it's as good as I remembered it!

Pony Club Restaurant (10) Mt Lawley       voodoomoon 24-07-2008

Food:
     
Seeking refuge from a heavy storm last Friday night, we enjoyed a lovely selection of very tasty and stunningly presented tapas at the Pony Club in Mount Lawley.

This place had quite a reputation to live up to and did so effortlessly - the wine list is wonderful, the service personal and friendly, and the food excellent. I can't wait to come back for more!

Santa Fe Restaurant (6) Subiaco       voodoomoon 24-07-2008

Food:
     
Santa Fe offer affordable, tasty Tex-Mex food which is enjoyable but not much more than merely adequate. Whilst the entree Jalapeno poppers were excellent, the main courses were generic, inoffensive and a little bland. Judging by the other reviews here, and my visits to other Tex-Mex restaurants in Perth, this is what a lot of customers want... but as a dedicated foodie and a chef I can't help but feel how much better the food would be with a little love, a little pizazz, a little passion. (How can you make chilli con carne without so much as a hint of chilli, and not have any decent hot sauce to offer on the side?)

Having said that, you can't fault the mind-bendingly extensive tequila menu, and apparantly the cocktails are excellent!

Willow Cafe Restaurant (The) (5) Duncraig       voodoomoon 24-07-2008

Food:
     
The Willow offers well-cooked home style food in large portions at reasonable prices. This isn't haute cuisine by any means, but you can rely on having a good feed, with friendly family service thrown in for good measure.

Whilst my fish pie was generous, tasty and full of fresh seafood, one friend's chicken breast was dwarfed by an overly generous mountain of (admittedly lovely and creamy) mashed potatoes. Another friend needed his steak cooked further to reach the requested level of Med-Rare, but overall we were pleased with a good, relaxed (and generous!) meal

Globe food | wine | coffee (7) Perth       tash695231 24-07-2008

Food:
     
I had the field mushrooms with parmesan cheese and balsmic vinegar and my partner had the kangaroo These were both absolutely lovely and flavorsome. For the mains i had the Salmon and Asparagus Risotto while my partner had the Ainstar Chicken, both was delicious and i was quite satisfied when i had finished.

Service:
     
The service was good right from the start. No complaints at all for our waitress and she was very friendly and helpful.

Ambience:
     
Lovely wooden floors and well lit. Was not loud at all and there were a few people in the resturant.

Overall:
Overall the experience was nice and with the entertainment card it was not to expensive an evening. The only thing that was wrong, was how close the tables are. We had another couple sitting next to us and it was disconcerting to be able to hear everything they were talking about. But other than that, i would definately visit again.

Pronto Ristorante e Pizzeria (4) Claremont       jemskins 23-07-2008

Food:
     
I have eaten here twice and the first time I had a pizza which was disappointing. This Zingara I ate was ok but nothing special and my friends eggplant parmiagna was a small portion but tasty.

It annoys me you have to pay for still bottled water and I am more than happy with Perth's tap water.

Service:
     
When we saw the waiters they were great - very friendly & helpful but as we were at an outside table I felt we were forgotten about us as I had to enter the restaurant twice:to ask for menus & then to ask for the bill which was a long time in coming. Plus our dirty plates took awhile to be removed

Ambience:
     
Well we sat outside, but the first time I ate here I was at a table inside and it there was a nice feel about the place.

Overall:
I still cannot work out what all the fuss is about!

Piccolo Restaurant (7) North Perth       funkybek 22-07-2008

Food:
     
Top quality nosh from this quirky little cafe. Kicking off with an antipasto plate, with just the right balance between hot and cold items - the 2 styles of grilled chorizo were fabulous, although I wasn't too impressed with the store bought crackers, smoked salmon and creme fraiche combo?

My partner and I have a rule of not ordering the same meal to allow for maximum tasting, but neither of us could go past the sticky 1/2 duck with rice and asian greens - and neither were disappointed. Crunchy on the outside, tender in the middle. A little akward to manage with the bones, but worth the effort.

Merlot poached pear with mascarpone was a great finish, not too sweet, perfect with coffee.

Service:
     
Service was fabulous. Smart, warm efficient, these ladies know what they are doing. Even after a mix-up with the VIP discount card - they were smooth and accommo
