My first experience with Ribs n Burgers was Sydney and I loved it. So when this place came up on…read moremy radar on opening I had to come. The venue itself is a great location, even if a touch out of the way of the main eateries. Of course I love the food offered, I love the view, I love sitting in the warm sun outside when possible but I've really enjoyed the constant welcome from the manager/owner of the place. The staff too ;) Says a lot to me when they take time out to meet n greet you personally. The selections of food have always been fresh and tasty...and filling. This joint is also open late so good to come before of after a movie to eat, chill and talk. It may not be a 5 star restaurant but I feel like I get a 5 star experience.

Love the new addition to Charlestown Square. A bit out of place however; upstairs at the end of the…read morefood court rather than downstairs with the other restaurants that are open at night. Balcony area is a major win for the upper location though. Order at the entrance to either take away or dine in at one of the cute tables or booths and listen to some great music whilst you wait. My partners bacon and cheese burger pushed his effort vs enjoyment ratio to the max but he pulled through. Finishing with dripping hands but he said it was worth it. My southern chicken burger was easier to manage with a great coating, double cheese and a zingy chipotle sauce. Chips were also delicious! Add $2 for a dipping sauce but I don't think they need it. I had the milo thick shake at The Rocks location years ago and happy to report it's just as good. Beers on tap or by the bottle. Sadly missed out on the $2 wine or schooner with any main meal which could be better displayed. We saw it advertised afterward when leaving the centre. But there's always next time. There WILL be a next time. Yum!

I want to start this review by saying the the food is always lovely when we come here. We are semi…read moreregular visitors of this restaurant and the food never disappoints. However, what we have observed is a steady decline in service. The serving staff are blunt, unfriendly and rushed. They almost feel like they are trying to rush you through your meal. If it was just a one time thing then it would be excusable but it happens time and time again. It pains me not to be able to recommend this place because the food is delicious but the service makes for an unpleasant and rushed dinning experience.

I was initially a little put off because I don't like to see food in bain-maries, but the food was terrific.

The breakfasts menu is more imaginative than most and they make their own potato rostis rather than buy those nasty frozen hash browns that you normally get as standard cafe breakfast fare. I have since found that he roasts his own coffee, and this makes this place all the more special. Go for this experience alone!

Delicious. Fantastic. Superb…read more Maybe a little overpriced, but good LORD the FOOD! It's just so GOOD! The Cubano was the best Cuban sandwich I've had outside of Florida. Take it from someone who lived in Tampa & ate Cuban sandwiches at LEAST once a week -- this place does them proper justice. The jalapeños are an inauthentic but totally welcome addition. The cheese is melted just right, the sandwich is pressed beautifully, & the mustard - it's just right; not too much or too little. My partner's chimmichurri steak was to die for. The thick slab of meat that any lesser cook would have undercooked or burnt was a PERFECT medium. & the relish... Delectable. I was torn between wanting to trade because it was that good, & not wanting to let him near my blissfully delicious sandwich. Well worth the price. Next time I find myself in Newcastle I know where I'm getting lunch.
