Yummy food, always. The tomato rice with chicken chop is fantastic. Very good gluten-free menu.

We came late at night just before closing, but the friendly team here at Matsuki Izakaya still warmly welcomed us. They kindly catered to gluten-free dietary needs. Thank you ☺️

A varied brunch menu (many interesting egg dishes) & a great selection of cakes. The orange cake was gluten-free & lush, but could have been sweeter. Very subjective :-) The rest of us ate main courses, all of which were good. Mine was chicken & mushroom risotto, nicely cooked & presented. Excellent flavor. Caesar Salad is a generous serve, prawn linguine smelled good. Service is polite, enthusiastic, very friendly... & incompetent. On Sunday afternoon I am very laid back. The wait staff are all late teens- but even allowing for that - oh my. We were delivered other people's dinner or drinks not once or twice, but six times. I think three different waiters did this. I've been a waiter. We didn't complain (they were genuinely honest mistakes, really nice staff, it was brunch, let's get over ourselves). But six times? I checked the bill carefully. It was right. We tipped :-) But check that the plate you receive is the one you actually ordered. Would I go back? Absolutely

Great food and service. Work xmas dinner, 3 of us had 5 mains over 2 hours and 2 bottles of red. Delicious! Advised staff I was a coeliac and they confirmed what meals could be adjusted to be gluten free. House Specials Soft Shell Crabb, Mixed Seafood, Eye Filet, Sate Chicken and Manchurian Lamb, from memory. I'm definitely coming back and bringing the family.

Had a terrible experience here after driving out from the city thinking it would be great from the Broadsheet review. Coffee would be better at McDonalds. All the cool GF items listed are no longer available there and the GF burger that I did order (which I confirmed 3 times bc the staff seemed a bit out of their depth) came out looking like brioche bun, so I (very embarrassedly by this point) asked could they please check the kitchen got the note. Trusting my gut even though both staff members told me “100% it is gluten free”. One came back and, barely apologetically said, no. Kitchen said they didn’t get the note….she then offered to put the burger insides into a new bun….I, very anxious at this point said , “No I’m gluten intolerant, I can’t just have it scooped out into a new bun and be ok. I'll just eat the fries.” She said fine, she’ll charge less since I couldn’t eat the burger….. By the time she came out again and said they will remake the order I was so anxious and embarrassed I said no, bc I hate to make a fuss, but also would have been sick as a dog for days if I trusted these girls with my order. This is fine for a simple cafe, but it is not a dietary-conscious cafe and should definitely not be listed as such on Broadsheet.

Really lovely guy who runs the place. We order the soy dumplings and he was considerate enough to let us know that this batch had a tiny bit of gluten (only an issue for anaphylaxis which we don’t have but was kind of him to let us know in case). Also gave extra sauce :) Highly recommend!

Cold vegetable gluten mixed with tripe is crazy delicious

Jane Turner

Waitress was just gorgeous, so friendly polite and smiling. Pizza delicious. Just missing gluten free dessert options

Frangellina Ferndale

Delicious vegetarian food with vegan/gluten free options. A bit on the expensive side though.

Amy Miller

The food comes out FAST, has a great gluten free menu and efficient and polite service/ runners. The atmosphere is nice and intimate.

Very nice and affordable place! Food portions are good, and taste is great! I would definitely come back to try out their other dishes. Lots of gluten-free options available and most dishes could be prepared as vegetarian 🌱

What a lovely find at Pinewood. Always looking for good restaurants that offer quality food and atmosphere. Our first time here as a family. (our son is getting married and we were having a "running sheet meeting" ) It was just what we wanted a table to talk and not have to fight to be heard. Nicely spread out so you have room to move, the matrondee was very polite and looked after us superly. Very tasty Thai food and we were so happy that many of the meals were gluten free. Byo wine is always a great option, easy parking and excellent food close to home - what more could you ask for. Thank you Siam Thai Village for a lovely evening.
