Jac's Cafe, 3.5 Stars, $100 Dinner for 2 (inc Wine)

Jac's Cafe and Pizzeria, 1/45 Ardross Street, Applecross

Really nice, small, neighbourhood restaurant.

We have been here probably 10 times, for a quick weekend lunch or a mid week, lets not cook tonight dinner. The service is always prompt and attentive, the food is consistently good. We have probably had most of the mains during our visits and they are always good.

It can be hot inside with the Pizza oven.

The only ordinary meal we had was a special set dinner, which we thought lacked a little imagination in the choice of menu and presentation, although it was great food.
 
Previous meals:
  • Caesar salad, stake sandwich, grilled Salmon
  • Pasta with Meat balls
All good, with great wines and efficient and friendly enough service.

Millioncino, Perth CBD, 2.5 Stars

OK.

The waiter was just to eager for a tip.  Something that just not common in Perth and the service was ordinary.

Xanadu Restaurant 4 Stars

Xanadu Restaurant, Boodjidup Rd, Margaret River

Just a bit to California, a bit to polished, but undeniably excellent in a modern sophisticated style.

Difficult to fault the food and the service. Fresh local foods, excellent presentation, relaxed atmosphere, just a great place to spend some time after a hard days tasting.

Lamont's Margaret River 3.5 stars

Like the other Lamonts, relaxed, simple food, friendly service

Highlights
  • Environment
  • Food (Marion is great)
  • Wine (of course)
Low lights
  • Service could be more consistant
  • Open hours - why not just stay open the whole afternoon. We have been turned away from an empty restaurant because of timing
After Cullens, one of the nicer places.
