What Amparo Nieto likes about Gecko Cafe:
we ate here in our last night and had a nice experience. I had the tortiglioni and mama had the peri peri chicken sliders, we also had a side of the pecorino chips with tuffle mayo and all food was delicious and a good size....Staff were attentive, service was fast and the prices were with a TGIs/Groove train back in melbs. alcohol is expensive, but to expect. we recommend View all feedback.

The restaurant at Desert Gardens Hotel in Uluru seems to have mixed reviews, with some diners finding the food to be a bit of a letdown and the service lacking during dinner service. However, those who visited for the buffet breakfast had a positive experience with excellent variety and taste of food and top-notch service. The outdoor deck is a charming spot to enjoy a meal, with beautiful surroundings and a pleasant atmosphere. The new menu and service at Mangata restaurant received high praise, with diners enjoying delicious food such as the peri peri chicken burger. Overall, while the restaurant may have hit or miss moments, it seems worth a visit for certain dishes and meal times.
