    A good choice if you want to eat at Southbank, but don't want to spend too much or eat in the food court. However, I wouldn't rave about it. There's a variety of food available on the menu and my friend and I decided to share a Moroccan Spiced Lamb pizza with tomato, pistachios & minted yogurt. For around $20, I was expected some nice slivers of roast lamb, but the lamb was mince - a bit disappointing, but the flavours were nice enough. A bit of a turnoff was the bottles they use for table water - they hadn't been cleaned in a while and were dirty on the outside of the bottom of the bottle - although the water inside the bottle was fine, it looked dirty. Service is acceptable.

    An easy casual cafe with good menu selections to suit any budget. Pizzas, salads, kids meals ( that aren't all deep fried ), risotto, pasta and more substantial meals.
    My lamb cutlet, sweet potato and goats cheese salad was generous and well priced at $22.
    A good selection of drinks. Noisy as you would expect from this busy cafe but try and get a seat on the balcony outside in the sunshine.

    I love the laid back and relaxed feeling about this place, the view is gorgeous, food is great, prices are good, staff is soooo cool, I love the people wotking there. Maybe just one thing, the place might need updating, just a touch of better decorating....Otherwise been there many times and surely going back!!

    Blue Train is the perfect place to take interstate visitors. It is relaxed and friendly and has a great vibe to it. The meals are huge and hence really good value. The location is also A1 with easy parking at Crown or a few steps to a range of public transport.

    Great place, fun vibe and good food. Not overly expensive, unlike other places. Balcony is a great place to sit in the summer, view is beautiful. Waiting can be a problem though, especially at night. Make sure you remind the staff you've been waiting longer so that they don't seat people who have been waiting less before you! Great desserts and fun place.

    Great restaurant for a casual meal with friends. There is a good variety of food and I highly recommend the lentil dahl with roti as a starter. The pizzas are really tasty and the atmosphere is always buzzing. Great meeting place and the desserts are also worth waiting for.
