There is a great selection of wholesome meals such as lamb shanks and pastas. But you can still get a good old pub snitty. The prices are very reasonable and the servings are large. Ultimately the overall vibe of this place is to attract families and couples. There is also a separate area for the kids so couples can eat in peace. I highly recommend coming down here trying out the food and having a quite drink.

I could not be happier about…read morethe name - someone fill a feedbag with all the tasty eats from this joint and strap it to my face like I'm a racehorse eating for the Cup. The owner, Peter, is ex 4Fourteen and a keen local surfer. This is his first solo foray and he's dishing up a solid menu headed by sub-$10 burgers. The Chilli Bird one is STACKED with chicken fillets, topped with his home made chilli sauce (made, incidentally, from Scotch Bonnets that a kid from the local public school brings in for him that he's pinched from the school's community garden, what a bad-ass little entrepreneur!). The Lord Beefington is the perfect ratio of juicy patty to cheese to bun to pickle, and the fried cauliflower and crunchy-on-the-outside, fluffy-on-the-inside falafel balls are excellent sides, served with homous, chutney and what I think was aoli. There's some new decor and a liquor license on the way, which means even more good times to be had down McKeon Street way.

Ordered the "Lord Beefington" which had all the best parts of a good cheesburger (onion, mustard, pickles) with some ridiculous kind of smokey mayo. End result was a burger you eat in silence while smiling like an idiot. Grabbed some cauliflower chips as well and a freshly made iced tea. Solid experience all round would feed my bag again.

Inferno is a licensed venue offering a great range of alcoholic beverages to accompany your meal including a good range of beer, which is perfect when smashing or trying to smash one of their burgers. The menu supplying a magnitude of choice whith crazy burgers, loaded shakes, gelato, salads and as the name suggests items from the grill including steak, chicken and fish. The burgers here are huge, make sure you bring your appetite. The lord of the fries was a monstorous stack made of some mouthwatering slow cooked pulled beef marinated in a southern style smokey BBQ sauce, with some thick cut chips and a solid serve of melted cheese. This was ordered as a combo and came with a side of their thick cut chips, some of the best we have had. The chicken burgers are some of the best going around with a favourites being the clucking pig a fried chicken boheimeth and the honey badger, a tasty grilled chicken burger assembled with slaw and a flavoursome honey mustard sauce. We also shared a salad: brown rice with corn kernels and sun dried tomato a good option if you are after something healthy to eat. We could not go past their loaded shakes with the Caramello Koala granbing our attention. Being a fan of the chocolate, this shake was a must and did not disappoint. As mentioned, the servings are very generous and this shake could be considered a meal in itself. We thank inferno for their hospitality and for their vision in creating some solid burgers shakes.

Sweet merciful mother clucking WOW of minor foodie paradise…read more Inferno Grill knows food. Boy, do they know food. I came here for the burgers, and there's a custom Fatties Burger Appreciation Society list as long as your arm with all kinds of wild stuff (the Boss Hogg has crumbed mozzarella) but I tried their most famous creation, The Clucking Pig. The thing that stands out at this place is the quality of ingredients, and the care put into making each dish. The fried chicken was HUGE, like brontosaurus size, and piping hot with lovely crisp skin. The crunchy slaw, the aoili, the chilli sauce. Lots of thought has gone into this, and the result is astonishing. The owner Anthony stopped by out table for a chat. This is a guy that genuinely cares about his customers, and he's crafted a one-stop family place that has something for everyone, from the fresh salads to the sticky glazed pork ribs to the char-grilled BBQ chicken. Everything looks sumptuous, everything's crazy fresh, and the prices are amazing. In your face, $20 gastropub burgers that I could have made at home. Oh and beers and ciders are $5. Yup. Oh, and he makes his own gelato, the kind that has crumbled up Crunchies on top. A proper Rennaissance man. I hear he used to be a banker. Special shout-out to the home-made chilli sauce. Spin me around and call me Mary, I would drink a cup of this stuff. Don't dare me, I'LL DO IT. In the interests of full disclosure: a colleague was introducing me to this place and my burger was comped.

We're always on the hunt for somewhere to try that we haven't been before. When our personal…read moretrainer recommended Tradewinds in Maroubra, we were keen to try, given that it's also local for us. We are surprised that we hadn't been before. The restaurant can easily be found on Maroubra road with ample parking around. Whilst the restaurant is quite large, and can accomodate couples, families and groups, we recommend booking to guarantee a table. One of the best things about the restaurant is that the staff are just so darn nice. They all appear to love their job, be eager to help and offer suggestions as to what to order. We felt welcome and appreciated the quality service. Furthermore, the service was efficient, with food being delivered in good timing. Food wise, Tradewinds is a modern restaurant / bistro in Maroubra specialising in hearty food; meats on the grill, burgers, pastas, pizzas, salads and plenty of specials with influences from around the world. They have a good range of meats and we absolutely loved their smoked ribs, basted in a delicious - sauce. We ordered the pork ribs on one occasion and the meat platter on another. The meat platter also comes with steak, lamb souvlaki pieces and some of their tasty beer battered steakhouse fries. We also the flash fried salt and pepper calamari, served with fresh rocket and creamy aioli. The kofta special was also delicious; the kofta served with pita, fries and salad. Tradewinds also does plenty of desserts, tea and coffee as well as brunch on weekends. The restaurant suits all demographics - young and old and perfect for any sort of catch up. We recommend trying out this family owned business for the food is great, portions are generous and service is excellent.

Not much to separate it from the crowd, except these little lemon and herb potato balls, which I think are amazing. Just potato balls in a mixture, not really healthy by the look or feel of them, but they're good. They really should sell them in smaller serves though, the smallest is $5 for a container, and its pretty much a meal. They also have some octopus... something. At least for today. So they mix it up a little. Salads are pretty good looking (I haven't tried it), but there s a high standard of salads at charcoal chicken places, so I'm hoping they live up to it. But the store isn't huge, and feels a bit standard. Don't go out of your way, but a cheap fast meal when you are on your way home.

If so, this place is going a little American, Maybe they're aiming for the California-surfer feel. I suppose it fits. But after all the effort, I don't know how Zebra's fit in at all. There's only surfing pictures on the wall. Anyway, enough about Marketing philosophy. The place is cool. Maybe a bit of a step up as a café compred to the others on Maroubra, but not by much. I suppose the difference is that is set up mostly for dine in, although it does do take away. You'd be looking at paying around $10 - $15 for a meal, and there's the basic café menu, with a bit more. I guess the standard in Marbourba is for simplicity, but I get the feel they want to sophisticate the simplicity. But its still pretty simple. Do I make sense at all?
