The voucher meal started with a garlic crust pizza. It was OK; a bit like a big sao. The pasta and salad came out together. The salad was a bit of a disappointment as the tomatoes were not ripe enough. The chicken risotto was nice but the Italian sausage and fennel was the pick. I paid extra for a macchiato and that was good. My dessert eating friend wanted to try the Crepes Suzette and was disappointed as it was really thin pancakes with an orange sauce....not surprising really.

There are quite a few restaurants here but the lucky choice for today was Bar Angolo. FOOD If you were to ask me what the 3 basic ingredients to pizza were I'd say dough, tomato sauce and cheese. I was a bit confused then when there was a section of the menu dedicated to non tomato based pizza's. I enquired about this to find out these were white sauce based pizza's. Makes sense seeing as you get the same deal with pastas. Opted for the Pollo pizza ($21 - white sauce pesto base) and Crab penne ($26). Pizza trumped the Pasta but I still felt the chicken was a little too dry but the pesto sauce made up for this to give it good flavour OVERALL The alfresco setting creates a great atmosphere for relaxed dining. Good way to waste away an afternoon. Oh and recycling (http://www.yelp.com.au/biz_photos/zAQvp2YX6xuTABKYn0lGMQ#Sw_0L16UCvsgDfkV4emFOw) I like it!

This Korean fried chicken place can be a bit misleading at first…read more You walk in and the decor looks like it's from 1996 and probably hasn't been replaced since then either. On top of this you'll be met with a smell that is very reminiscent of a foot. Once you get past that though there's a good happy hour with $5 Coronas, Pure Blondes and VB cans. I went for the Coronas but it seems the regulars loved their VB tinnies. The real reason this place gets four stars is because of the first two pages of the menu. The boneless fried chicken is awesome and probably a little addictive. The spicy drummettes are great too but if you like you food to blow your head off with spice then you'll be disappointed. They taste great but are pretty mild as far as spice goes. It's worth going to this joint for the chicken and happy hour alone. Once you get past the pungent aroma when you first walk in that is.

Our order of boneless fried chicken was tasty and not to oily but a bit on the dry side of being cooked. The meal comes chips and gravy, so you have to order a side if you want to some variety. We ordered pineapple rice which was quite nice. All in all don't expect the best but is ok.

The food menu is good and I highly doubt anyone would lack options.

So I tried this place about 2 months back for dinner and went again for lunch this week. I'm sort…read moreof confused by this place and giving it a rating was difficult. Here's why. 1. The place is presented beautifully. Almost something you would consider to be a bit of an almost Melbournesque eatery, exposed brick walls, cute mismatched decor and dark inside. But the theme is quite confused - almost GoT style in one dining room with a big green chandelier mural on the wall and throne-type seating. I didn't get it. 2. The owner makes a big effort to speak to you personally and ensure the staff are looking after you - which they're not really and I think it's his presence that keeps them working. When we went for dinner, the owner took our details promising the launch of a crab house in the coming weeks. That obviously hasn't happened and there's been no update at all so will be interesting to see what happens there. 3. The menu sucks and the food is average. There's just not enough on offer and at a range of prices (remembering it's a 10min walk from the UWS parra campus). Lunch was a selection of 4 burgers, one vego salad, a pan fried salmon (at $30!) and a chicken breast. Meh. I want a healthy sandwich, or a selection of salads, something more!! (And yes, I'm channelling Open City here, or anything in the USA). I don't remember the extent of the dinner menu but it was definitely short. So 3 stars for the owner because I liked him, and also the fact that he's done up an old pub that would clearly be a bit of a dump and has a nice feel inside. Definitely room for improvement.

EVERYONE in Summer hill town has been talking about this place. From the outside you would not know that it was completely packed to the rafters with people. Outside you could hear crickets chirping. Inside was the sound of chatter and laughter and clanking dishes. You can't go out on the upstairs balcony after 8pm. Fair enough, it's right in a residential area. But you can hang out in the cool, lounge and table dotted bar and have a cocktail or a young henry's on tap. "The Smith street sour". Now, that's the street it's on. I loved that they've done that. Downstairs is separate from upstairs. You can get food up there too, but space is limited by the looks so I recommend just booking something. Brunch. . You can't book though, but try your luck. First up the dinner menu will dazzle you with temptations, but if you've never been before just get the "trust the chef" menu... just get it. It's 4 courses of the best things on the menu and that, my sweet sweet friends, includes the ur-example, the anti-matter that precedes the toast times, that which was made from the fragments of the universe. Duck liver paté. I fricking dug this so much I made the waiter bring us another, AFTER dessert and the complimentary cheese board he so very kindly threw in for us. Let me tell you I don't like mussels. But now I do. Only if they are served with pearl barley, tomato and trevally. Salted cod croquettes. . I think stuffed in zucchini flowers? Wut?? I like prawns in general, but these were gifts from the hand raised prawn nursery of the Mermaid queen. Dat Lamb shoulder tho... it was fall apart, meaty and gamey. The spinach, the pomegranate and dressing side just complimented and offset that taste perfectly. Dessert.. Well the time it came through we'd had several top notch wines and bubblies and DON'T EVEN FORGET calvados! Shut up! Let's admit this is a top notch restaurant. My friend and fellow foodie said if it was in Canberra it would have a hat. A lovely top hat, which gets tipped when fine ladies pass by its lovely renovated doors A nod to the building heritage, but a thoroughly modern interior, menu and outstanding service. Get here. Now.
