The beef rendang was my highlight &ndash; so tender and rich, with those crispy bits on the edges. Perfect with a side of gado gado. Their iced chocolate is a must too, not too sweet.

Nice casual spot. Staff were friendly, not overbearing. The seafood portions were huge, I couldn&#39;t finish my plate. Good for a relaxed feed.

Loved the vibe here! The candlelit tables made it feel cosy and relaxed, perfect for catching up with friends over a few drinks. Just the right spot for a low-key but nice evening out.

The share ribs platter was a good size for two. I really appreciated how fresh the lettuce and tomato in the burger tasted. The ribs were tender, though the buffalo wings could have been a bit less salty for my taste.

Booked ahead for a Friday, and glad we did&mdash;it&#39;s a tiny spot. Felt just right for a quiet catch-up over wine. The cosy vibe is everything.

The scones are fresh and the coffee&#39;s strong. Just what I needed after a morning on the water. Got my order in and out quick for a solid bite.

Creative cocktails, well executed. The lychee one and the Flower Boy stood out. Good spot for a quick after-work drink. Service was efficient.

For those who appreciate a good buffet, this place delivers with a variety of delicious options, including sushi and sashimi. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting.

Such a great find on Stanley St, glad we gave it a go. We ordered the vodka cream pasta, ragu pasta, pizza and some sides - all absolutely delicious. Oh and the tiramisu! Would love to return.

Had a fantastic share lunch with delicious starters like duck spring rolls and salt and pepper squid. The food was exceptional and definitely worth a try!

There was a pleasant vibe at the cafe. The food was tasty and presented very well. There was an odd mixup with a dessert not being made properly, but the staff were very polite and apologetic about it, refunded the dessert and gave us a discount. The service was good and the staff were really on top of keeping the table water bottle stocked. My dining companions were pleased by the generously-sized Aperol Spritzes.

We were a bit concerned when we entered the restaurant as there wasn&rsquo;t a lot of people in there, we had an early booking.But, the service was excellent and the food was sensational. It was possible the best middle eastern food I have tasted.Could not recommend Missony any more highly.

Service at the bar was actually decent for an airport spot. The staff were quick and friendly, which was a nice surprise. Prices are what you&#39;d expect here, but at least the service didn&#39;t feel rushed.

While the prices can be a bit on the higher side, the food is tasty and the service is generally good, making it a worthwhile experience.

If you&#39;re looking for a hidden gem in the CBD, this is the spot! The drinks are top-notch and the energy is unmatched.

The high tea at Arches on Market was delightful, featuring a beautiful presentation of homemade scones and tasty savory treats. The service was excellent, making it a lovely experience overall.

The ramen broth had a deep, rich flavour that really hit the spot. Our server, Lisa, was on top of everything&mdash;refilled our water before we even asked and was super friendly. Made the whole meal really relaxed.

Loved the cookies and cream gelato here! It was so creamy and the cookie bits gave it a nice crunch. The cone was fresh too. Got a massive scoop, perfect for sharing with a friend after dinner. 😊

The spicy cheese curry sando was packed with flavour, and the ingredients tasted really fresh. A nice, healthier option.

The plum shredded beef was a standout, and the fried rice had that great wok hei. Generous portions. I appreciated the wine list&mdash;found a nice red that paired well with the beef&#39;s tangy sauce. Solid spot.

Busy Saturday morning but the staff were so friendly. My avocado smash on sourdough was just right - creamy and fresh. A nice spot to start the day.

Perfect for a quick lunch. The standard breakfast with eggs and cheese melt is a solid choice. Good portion, hits the spot. Service was quick, got my order in no time. Just what you need on a busy day.

Been here a few times. The food&#39;s always fresh, and it&#39;s a solid spot for Shanghainese near Town Hall.

Campos coffee here, and they do it properly. Asked for a soy flat white, and the barista got it exactly right. Good spot for a quick, reliable coffee.

Urban Thai gets packed, fair warning. The Som Tum was spot on - fresh, crunchy, nice kick. Pad See Ew was a touch too sweet for me though. Solid feed.

Been coming here for years, and the spring rolls and Mongolian lamb are still as good as ever. Portions are generous, you definitely won&#39;t leave hungry. It&#39;s that consistency that keeps me coming back.

Stopped in for lunch and got their roast beef sandwich. The meat was tender, really good quality. Bread was fresh, held up well. Nice cup of tea to go with it. Simple spot, but they do the basics right.
