Spot Pea - CASULA

This charming restaurant is located just off the Hume Highway and features both indoor and outdoor seating. However, I was left disappointed by the French toast. It was overloaded with honey and lacked any accompanying ice cream or other element to balance out the sweetness, making it feel overly dense. On the other hand, my friend enjoyed their eggs benedict and fruit salad.

Went there in a small group. From the menu, I saw a smoked salmon salad and asked if I could trade the smoked salmon for grilled chicken. There was another grilled chicken salad (so I knew they had chicken) however the quinoa and other ingredients didn't appeal to me which is why I asked if I could order the smoked salmon salad and trade the salmon for the chicken NO. There wasn't anything else appealing or light so I asked if the waitress if she would kindly ask the chef if this was possible. Off went the waitress to the kitchen only to return with an emphatic NO. She advised I could have what I requested but only if I paid for both the smoked salmon and the chicken (even though I wasn't receiving the smoked salmon). What sort of attitude is that? Our group just looked at each other and failed to recall when a request at a restaurant had been as obstinate as that. My friend kindly ordered the chicken and quinoa salad and I ordered the salmon and we had to swap food off each others plates. The salads were actually fresh and tasty and left a pleasant aftertaste, unlike the customer service.

My friends and I came here for lunch and ordered three different dishes - two burgers and the Barramundi dish. The Barramundi was a decent portion size, cooked well, flavorful, and came with tasty accompaniments. However, the burgers were nothing out of the ordinary. In my opinion, for a cafe in this location, a burger with chips should be priced lower than $19.00. Overall, the food was average, neither exceptional nor terrible.

My family of 10 people enjoyed a birthday breakfast together today. The service was excellent and quick. I requested that the children's meals be served first, and they were. The food was plentiful and fresh, but the only downside was the coffee. This restaurant is my local and I have been coming here since it opened. However, I am consistently disappointed with the coffee every time I visit. I want to support local businesses, but I have never enjoyed a good coffee here. Please improve this aspect of your service.

Called in on a hot day just for some drinks. Staff friendly. Fresh juices and watermelon smoothies went down a treat. Didn't try the food on this occasion. Quiet spot.
