Vileroy - Norwood

All the food here is amazing! I have been here a number of times for breakfast and lunch and I would recommend everything on the menu but I usually get the scrambled eggs. The place is very cosy and the owner, Grant, is very accomodating and is happy to explain the dishes to you if you’ve never tried them. Also, great hot chocolates .

I RECOMMEND THE STEAKOn arrival, we were greeted by the waiter opening the door for us and showing us to our table which although I had a booking, wasn 't properly made up.While the dinner menu is only one page long, we still had difficulty deciding what to order as a lot of the choices were tempting. There were some specials as well.He had the beef fillet cooked exactly to his liking it was fabulous. We all had a taste agreed on how good it was.I had the prawn bugtail linguine which was served with a plethora of cherry tomatoes which I love.She had the whiting with wedge style chips and enjoyed it.All three plates were scraped clean.We didn 't order entrees or sides because we had seen the desserts menu wanted to 'save room '.The desserts were delectable: choc fondant plus brioche butter pud with cleaned plates again.I would like to return to try other dishes on the menu.

Four of us had dinner here on Tuesday night 14th March. I had the chicken. Other diners had crab cakes, balmain bugs linguine and fish of the day, along with various vegetables side dishes.The food was absolutely delicious. The service was good and the cafe surroundings were smart and comfortable. The wine list was excellent. I would definately recommend Vileroy for anyone looking for delicious food and wine.

An open spacious cafe/restaurant to dine in. The glass feature walls make the area look a lot wider and bright. There are newspapers stuck all over the walls ?look like they are doing some renovation. <br/ <br/ Services staffs on board are not very friendly at all. Seems to be inattentive and couldn't really care. Incorrect information given at times about their beverages. I was told their coffee is pretty strong, had a double shot latte but was given in a tall glass and I could barely taste the coffee at all. However, some good recommendation given on the food menu. Speed of service is also pretty good. <br/ <br/ Food serving here is pretty decent. Worth the value. love the pan seared tuna salad. The salad was refreshing, well dressed but might be better if it can be served in smaller pieces. Tuna was seared to perfection and well seasoned. Beautiful poached eggs with the runny egg yolk is perfect to bring the whole dish together. Meatball pasta was lacking some seasoning. Definitely need some salt and pepper and personally I would love to have a hint of chilli in there as well. <br/ <br/ Beverages mentioned above, coffee weak. If you like weak coffee this would be all good. Average wine list. <br/ <br/ I would still be back to try their lemon soufflé hot cake which sound very interesting but they only served that for brekky. Hopefully services improve the next time I'm there. <br/

Ambiance: 7 10  <br It's open plan and airy but, warm. We were there for lunch on an early<br winter cold snap with pouring rain. The big windows juxtaposed the conditions<br outside to the cosiness inside. It can get a little loud though with acoustics being<br sharp but, some would say that adds to the buzz of the place. There’s 2<br upstairs function rooms that are worth keeping in mind.<br <br Winelist: 8.5 10   The<br owner manager knows his stuff with interesting, unique and different wines. Finally,<br someone who chooses the wines on merit not the label. I’m considering maybe a<br 9 10 as I write.<br <br Service: 8 10   Again,<br the Boss has clearly been around hospitality for a long time with an almost<br psychic 6th sense for our needs without any intimidating hover. His<br assistants have been well mentored too. It all adds up to polite, professional<br yet, calm and relaxing imbibing.<br <br Cuisine: 8 10   Comprehensive<br menu both for how hungry and styles. Mine was served almost cold though but,<br fantastic texture, flavour balance and harmony. It was a small portion size as<br well even though it was termed a ‘Main’. Perhaps I just chose mine poorly as my<br 2 friends were in raptures and they’re both foodies (one’s a chef and the other<br is a master home cook). I’ve given an extra ½ point bowing to their opinions.<br <br Value for what you get: 8.5 10   This place is a bit of a hidden gem,<br moderately priced with its quality above its price point<br <br The deal maker or breaker; would I go back? Already planned.<br <br 40 50
