He's genuinely Italian (not like those awful fake Italians that seem to be everywhere you look these days) and is chronically happy in the most relaxed and infectious way. And hells, why wouldn't he be when he's blessed with the God-given talent to create the most awe-inspiringly, pants-wettingly delicious pizzas in Sydney? You may guess from that little paean that this is my go-to 'za joint and you'd guess right. None of this pan base crap. No bike wheel-thin, brittle dough with an artisan scraping of tomato sauce and three pieces of gourmet pepperoni. These bad boys are dripping with love and quality toppings, stacked high with colour and juice and topped with tasty cheese and chilli flakes and those ace little Italian anchovies I can't get enough of. My fave is The Special with pretty much everything and the kitchen sink on it. But NO PINEAPPLE. God help you if you order pineapple on a pizza. What are we, Polynesian cavemen? It's cheap, too. 2 families feeds three of us with lunch left over the next day. Boom. All hail Antos, king of pizza parlours!

Thankfully, Benjamin said most of it for me. The only thing I will add is that their Vegetarian options are also unparalleled and they will happily change toppings for you, or you can create your own. P.s. PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA FOR LIFE! *shakes fist at sky*

Lots of tradies visit here on the way to work and the staff are very efficient and friendly.

The staff are very empathetic to people with special needs. Food wise... Well very fresh! All the foods that you can get at any other Maccas are here! No drive through service. Parking is in the shopping centre. No play equipment, that can be a plus if you want a quiet cup of coffee of a morning. Ha

The first thing you notice when you walk in is the south side wall art - black and white illustration circle pattern with a retro design feel. It's pretty 'cool' for these parts. The dark timber table and chairs and polished (both in presentation and literally) table setting gives this restaurant an instant luxury dining feel whereas the outside seating area on the main road and side street give it more a chilled cafe feel. The menu is certainly on the fancy end of food standards. Here's my picks to give you an indication of quality: fresh oysters with a Campari and lime dressing for starters (one dozen for $36), Roast baby beetroot with Mt Vikos feta, purslane and truffle honey for entree ($17), Duck confit with frisee salad, lardons and mustard dressing for main ($28), Rocket salad with organic almonds, black pepper and lemon for sides ($8) and an "Orgy" of summer berries, crisp meringue and raspberry sorbet ($14). Oh yeah... it's a nice menu indeed. There's a comprehensive wine and beer list but you can take your own bottle of wine for $10 corkage. Coffee is so so. Breakfasts are also meant to be pretty dam fine. Staff were pleasant and efficient enough but I didn't find them overly warm. Also I'd sit looking inwards towards the restaurant as the streets outside are pretty drab.

Today was my third visit to High Street Bistro and my last. During our first visit we were served…read moreby a lovely young man but there seems to be a change in their staffing of late. The two that served today seemed self absorbed and arrogant. The Spring special did not have a vegetarian option and they weren't willing to substitute anything either. I am not a vego but my husband is and I always look at the options. (Only one entree was vego and no mains) I decided against the special and ordered off the a la carte menu. The spaghetti was almost $30 (special was two courses incl wine) so that seemed a lot. Two in our party ordered it and it was swimming in OIL and tasteless.... They whisked away the plates and did not ask if anyone enjoyed their meals, so it seems they don't care what you think. With average meal prices that high, I would love genuine service and generous serves of delicious food - none of that at High Street Bistro! Save the effort and go to Crows Nest :) P.S I also bought a Cudo voucher a few months ago but after multiple tries I was unable to use it before they expired. Only could be used at very specific times I guess but they weren't willing to say when that was.

I ordered a lady finger based on how it looked because I couldn't find a description. I thought it was just okay. The next item was called cabbage roll. Again, no description. It was way too salty so I binned it. The last thing I had was Baba Ghanoush. There was no description but I think I've had it before. The picture showed the dish served with some kind of bread. My mistake was assuming that it came with flatbread or naan, but it didn't. Eating without an accompaniment just didn't work for me. As I said at the beginning, it could be my tastes just didn't appreciate this kind of food.

Roseville Chickens and Salads is a favourite for many locals. Customers who live in Lindfield often…read moredrive to Roseville because of the quality of the chickens. There is little competition in Lindfield as the chicken shops there are pretty dreadful. Roseville Chickens and Salads is pretty basic in design and decor but its the food that is always super fresh and delicious. The chickens are renowned for being succulent and tasty. They also sell Lilydale chickens so if you prefer free range, make sure to ask for a Lilydale. The owners are very nice and are always working around the clock. There is a salad section with coleslaw and other salads which are the perfect side dish with a chicken. They also sell other food items such as a potato mix, chicken chips and more recently have introduced milkshakes. The prices are fairly reasonable and the quality of food is fantastic. Many repeat customers at this chicken shop enjoy a regular meal here! In house dining isn't that appealing but most people purchase chickens for takeaway.

I came with a group of 6 and we naturally had to order the metre long pizza ($62) al metro, meaning it could be split into 3 different types of pizza out of their 15+ choices so there's something for everyone. Before we did that we ordered some starters; the salt + pepper calamari with eggplant (this was awesome,) buffalo mozzarella salad, and sausage on toast (the name escapes me.) The entreés were good, though portions on the small side...but good start. Onto the pizza...I'm not sure what I expected, but I think I ate a bit of the hype machine because the pizza was just OK for me. The crust was crispy, dough was fluffy, but the pizza itself was a little too flimsy...flimsy enough you had to eat with two hands and the toppings fell off quite easily, so I found it more annoying than enjoyable to eat. I need to come here again to solidify my opinion, but for the time being, if you live near the CBD I wouldn't make the trek out here as there are other places to go. Order a small pizza on the side if you have 6 people, as the metre long will be gone in seconds and you may still be hungry.
