    This place is often busy so I tend to dine at a quiet time during the week. The food are good and so are the prices. I tend to try a different dish each time I'm there and my meal always turns out great. Service is usually prompt when the restaurant isn't full.

    Great place to eat & very reasonably priced. Friendly service, great menu, tasty food delivered quickly to your table. Very popular so can get a bit noisy inside. Alfresco dining on offer.

    We came here the other night for dinner and we were hungry as anything. It was after 9:30pm on a weeknight and the place still had people dining.

    There was quite a selection from their menu but we opted for their specials, which was the scotch fillet and the salmon.

    Less than 10 minutes later, the food was in front of us and we were chowing it down. For around $20ish for a main, the serving sizes were quite big, and it was quite tasty.

    For those looking for a casual dinner place, give Cafe Jolly a visit!

    This bustling restaurant is one of my favourite local restaurants to go to.

    The food seems quite authentic and the servings are generous whilst being really good value for money. From memory the average price of a main is about $18. There's a good range of dishes ranging from seafood, to veal, beef, lamb and chicken.

    BTW you can't go without trying their famous chilly cheese and honey bread- who would've thought combining these three ingredients could be such a great surprise for the little taste buds :)

    Floor staff consists of 2 - I really don't know how they do it because it gets very busy here. But they still manage to friendly and welcoming no matter how crazy things get. One small criticism is the noise level, which can get pretty high sometimes, but it's a small price to pay for a good meal.

    Being a local this is the best place to go for a great quality, no fuss, delicious meal - can't beat the $10 jolly breakfast special, so much food plus a yummy coffee included - what more could you want?

    If you're on a budget, but still appreciate fresh and delicious food, check out Jolly. I could go on forever, but remember three simple things: Gorgonzola Gnocchi, Baby Barrumundi, Salmon Ravioli. Don't forget to ask for the parmesan, and tip the wait staff - they deserve it.

    You can't book for this super-reasonable place (mains are no more than $22) so it's always packed but since most people use it for a family-friendly meal or to eat something before they go to the movies on Norton Street, you won't have to wait too long. Very friendly staff.

    You'll need to get there early as this place fills up quickly and there's not a lot of room. Perfect for a quick and reasonably priced meal - pasta and other Italian dishes. Best of all while it's cheap and quick they don't skimp on taste!!
