I've been going here for many years with my family.

Also the gravy is to die for, absolutely to die for.

Average place. Came here for our team christmas lunch. The…read moreplace is dead quiet no matter what time you go. Waitresses are pretty grumpy too. Booking our lunch there seemed to be a pain for them. And just serving us throughout even though we were the only group there. The pizzas were really salty, ridiculously salty actually! (Lucky I like my salt!) Unfortunately their pizzas, despite being made there, seems to taste like those frozen ones you buy. Very unfortunate, we should have done our lunch elsewhere to be honest. At least they let you byo wines!

Dime-a-dozen food with not atmosphere. I know that sounds harsh but let me finish! Food: Pizzas and Pasta are exactly the same as any $15 pasta restaurant in any part of australia. Good enough. Atmosphere: Grumpy wait staff seemed genuinely put out that we would dare come to their empty restaurant! Eerily quite as well.

I wasn't sure about this place, it never seemed like much from the outside. Nevertheless we decided…read moreto give it a go. Once inside the decor was lovely, the staff a little lack lustre (everyone has a bad day!) but the food sounded amazing. We ordered a couple coffees and the bubble and squeak fritters and the French toast. What came instead was the ricotta hot cakes. The amazing thing was, we didn't even notice until we'd kicked our plates clean! We dug into it so quick because it looks so beautiful and we're actually happy we had this instead of the French toast in the end! All the negatives we outweighed by the delicious food and great quality coffee! The fritters were fantastic with a perfectly fried egg on top and the hot cakes were incredible. We'll happily be back here and stop judging books by their cover!

The latter was perhaps the best seafood pasta dish I've had. We'd come back here in a flash. Definitely recommend. The wait staff are good on the eye too :-)

Jimmy's (known somewhat confusingly online as PizzaBox66) is literally around the corner from the…read moreroad where I live. Supporting local business doesn't get much closer than this, so ordering pizza from here was a no brainer. It doesn't look like it's going to deliver much from a casual glance but actually, Jimmy's is churning out above average pizza here. Crisp bases, fresh and tasty ingredients, and quick availability. I picked my tandoori chicken up ten minutes from ordering. They probably won't win many awards, and it won't be the nicest pizza you've ever had, but you could do a lot worse. It's a solid choice.

A flat 4 for me. These were reputed to be the best pizzas in near distance. Pretty good tip…read moreactually. We all agreed that the pizzas were absolutely superb. As good as I've ever had. We had a few of them for the extended group. Goats cheese, proscuitto, salsccia e friarelli, Porto porcini, small garlic and Marguerita. If they'd been warmer, it would have been a higher mark. The only distressing part of the experience was watching anxiously on the app as the food was collected and delivered late and consequently far too cool. You know, I've never seen pizza sliced worse than these were - all slices were too big or two small - but that was more cause for amusement than anything else. The pizzas themselves were excellent. Couldn't fault the toppings, base or overall flavours. I'd get them more often if there was a guarantee they'd be hot.

This is my parent's local pizza place/restaurant, and we tried it out when we visited Melbourne…read morerecently. I phoned to get a takeaway (for collection) but they didn't answer the phone, so we decided to just walk around to see if they were actually open. Thankfully they were, and we ordered a couple of pizzas and a pasta to take away. It was a lovely evening so we sat outside while we waited. I would say the communication with the staff wasn't amazing and I was a little worried they'd forgotten about us after a while. We got our food, paid and walked back home. I was pretty happy overall - I had the gnocchi with avocado and trout which sounds amazing but unfortunately was lacking a bit in flavour. I added some Parmesan myself to sort that out. I didn't try the pizza but there wasn't any complaints about those. Make sure you check out the set deals they have for takeaway collections as they work out pretty reasonably, we got 2 large pizzas with a fudge for dessert for $30 (and added on a pasta). It's also a nice restaurant to eat in, but it's been ages since my last meal here so I can't really mention any more detail that that!

I mainly come here for one dish; it's a gnocchi with trout, avocado in a creamy curried sauce…read more It's so unusual and actually DOES work. The restaurant always gets busy - I guess they have their regular locals - and it has a warm atmosphere. However ... I've only ever seen "kids" working there. They seem to be in their mid-late teen years, and that can be a disadvantage due to inexperience and not being as at ease talking to adults as adults would be. When asked how everything was one night, we received a "huh" when we mentioned that the food wasn't as ordered. That's not the type of response I expect or want. While waiting for the food to come out (an above average wait time), you can see the confusion on their faces as they try to deal with the increase of customer flow in there. They look like they're in a haze. That being said, the food is quite good. It's not the fanciest of restaurants I've been to, but it's a good, safe go-to for a Sunday night dinner or just a nice family meal.

Nothing Goofy about this pizza…read more Goofy's Pizza House is the very definition of comfort food. It's the pizza you never knew you needed, because the art of huge toppings that taste delicious together has since been forgotten in most pizza establishments. It's your typical pizza outing in terms of dining in and how the shopfront looks, not enough room to move, but it's all about takeaway. It doesn't matter what you choose, whether it's the Capricciosa, Hawaiian, Goofy's Special or Mexicana, the amount of quality toppings and construction of the pizza has always been consistent and excellent. There's a surcharge if you're paying by card, which is disappointing. But, the prices are fair for the amount of pizza you're getting. Service is prompt, you won't have trouble with the friendly staff. If you're looking for a dirty, sin filled monster of a pizza, there's little, if any, that are better than Goofy's Pizza House.
