This is a hidden gem in Salisbury - we have never dreamed of going here due to location (sadly!) and we had to go here for a birthday party and were so suprised! They had a deal for buy one get one free lunch at the time (for everyone) so it was a very cheap event. They are called "House of Schnitzel" and they have heaps of schnitzel toppings and 3 different schnitzel sizes. Mini Midi and Maxi. You pick your size and then the topping (I.e. Nachos or meatballs) They had a vegetarian option for me, which was the eggplant schnitz, and we got to add a topping to that as well (Avocado and sour cream - YUM) They have wonderful staff who accompanied us to the table and set up the highchair for Boo. Sadly they don't do long island iced teas, but I'll forgive them for that :D read more

Okay, you might be wondering why on Earth did I ever go to this pub considering that it is in Salisbury, and this place did have a reputation. Well, since it is right next to the railway station, and is on my way home, then it was the obvious choice for me if I wanted to have a beer. Anyway, for a while it was actually a really quite place. In fact the only people you would find in here were the people in the pokies room, which meant that, unless it was poker night, you could literally have the entire place to yourself. However that has changed since they have now added a restaurant, call 'The House of Schnitzel', and what that means is that you have a whole page of cholesterol busting toppings. Okay, they didn't have the 'parma sandwich' however there were enough choices to literally give you a heart attack simply by thinking about it. I ended up having the Yiros Schnitzel which was pretty good, and I even managed to walk out of here alive. read more

Visited here recently for a friend's birthday lunch. Although there were quite a few people in our "party", the staff just didn't seem to cope with the number of orders. All our meals took a very long time (nearly an hour) to be delivered to us, by which time none of us were terribly impressed and very hungry! We had managed to get some food from the Salad Bar, but that was nothing special either. No apologies given for lateness of meals. The staff were thoroughly overwhelmed and obviously understaffed. If I had my way I would most likely not visit this establishment again. read more

Having been before I was expecting the same pleasant dining experience we had enjoyed on previous occasions. Let's start with booking. For a party of 19, my daughter in law was told that she didn't have to pay the $50 deposit as she just scraped in under the 20 people rule. She was then contacted by someone else and told that she had to pay the deposit. That got sorted much to the hotel's chagrin. Upon arrival tonight, we were waved in the general direction of our table by a rather annoyed lady. The table was not fully set and we had to ask for menus. Drinks. If you wanted coke zero in a bottle, you were in luck. If you wanted normal coke or anything else then you had to have the premix. Our meals were ordered between 6.15 and 6.30. The kids meals arrived quite quickly which was great. I left at 6.50 to pick my husband up and returned about 7.30 thinking that our meals would have arrived at the table. No such luck. By 8 most of our meals had been served with the exception of 3 meals. When my daughter in law went to find out where the meals were she was told as it was such a large order, it was on 2 dockets but the meals would be out shortly. When 2 steaks well done arrive 30 mins before the schnitzel that were ordered first, you have a problem. The salad bar. The tongs used to serve the hot roast veg were very hot to the touch and could barely be handled without burning your hands. Staff. For a Saturday night and knowing in advance that you would have 2 large tables, the staffing was ludicrous. Running on a skeleton staff will result in very bad service. My daughter had to ask one of the staff for our table to be cleared. It was only half done. My daughter then took a heap of glasses up to the bar when she ordered her drinks and again asked for someone to come and clear the table. After 20 minutes, my son's did it themselves. I ordered the beef schnitzel with mushroom gravy. If I wanted to wait for another hour for a replacement, I would have sent it back. Deep fry them if you have to but at least drain them properly. Never again. read more

Ate here tonight. Suppose to be a schnitzel house. Ordered a chicken schnitzel as did most of the others at dinner. Ate some of it and the chicken smelled like it was past it's use by date even after cooked. That smell when you buy chicken breast and don't use it. When it gets a slime film over it and has that odur. Also told the waitress about it and she just said 'oh we are really sorry' I will not be going back read more

Had a private function there last night and feel so sorry for my sister in law The food once it finally came out two hours later and once the staff found the right table was terrible food was over cooked cold over priced The drink were even worse very overpriced made a big mental note to never book a private function there read more

Avoid, avoid, avoid, waited 45 mins in line to be served and over an hour for our meals. Service was poor!! If it wasnt for the older lady trying her heart out to keep everyone as happy as she could it would have been worse. The salad bar was very average, potatoes and pumpkin under cooked. The tinned pineapple, olives, pickled onion and beetroot were ok as they should be but nothing else was?? When my steak did arrive it was cooked perfectly but unfortunately cold? Definitely a place to avoid! Other customers were asking for their money back as they didnt want to wait any longer. Looks like the money they spent on doing this place up have been wasted if this is what you get. There are plenty of close by pubs that serve better food with better service! read more

Good food but poor staff, they are all over the place and are never there to greet people at the door. I have seen people waiting there for five to ten minutes. But overal the food is good and always hot. read more
