Groove Train - East Geelong

I went to the 14th or 15th birthday of the 14th or 15th birthday in the Geelong (do not remember) and I had the Souvlaki and I was amazed when my Souvlaki bread does not break. I have recently gone to the new waking pond camp in March, and I loved my food except that I had forgotten to ask for any coriander, and I almost died, but that was my fault. Extremely good service and a fun atmosphere! :)

Spacious family radiant. The service is prompt with friendly staff. Had Bufffallo Magheritta Pizza. It was big enough for 2 people (women), there are bits of cheese that are a little salty. Pizza is very soft in the middle, but the pages are fixed (not too dry / crispy). It would be better if there is more cheese. The eggplant chips come with a dive sauce (creamy), crisp on the outside and soft in the middle. Eggplant chip was pretty good, but serving is quite small for $ 13.

Lunched here today at around 11:30am & chose their Fettuccine Carbonara at $20.90 followed by a dessert of Chocolate Ripple Cake at $7.50 (2 large courses under $30 = good value). The Carbonara was served steaming hot and within 10 minutes of ordering (although I was their first lunch meal customer) and was truly tasty on my palate with the creaminess making it beautiful & moist. The dessert was very rich in flavour & the cream & a few strawberries set it off (I couldn't eat it all so I brought it home in a supplied container to finish being eaten later). Service provision was excellent by the 2 young waitresses Molly & Milana - both had a cheerful welcoming approach and ensured my dining experience was a pleasant one, the ambiance was comfortable with the vocal pop music at a level that could only just be heard. The Juror's Verdict: Food 4.5/5, Service Provision 4.5/5, Will I return: Yes definitely Phill Jury (food critic & writer)

Hmmmm, yeah I'd say this place is not bad.  Actually, it is what you would expect for the type of restaurant it is.  It is not high-end dining and the quality of the food represents that. It is probably on par of some of the pubs around Geelong, the only difference is that you know what you are getting here, in terms of ambience, service, atmosphere, and I guess food quality.  My daughter got a kids beef hamburger and although 3 she said she didn't like it and I kind of don't blame here, as it looked very ordinary.  My wife got a club sandwich, and although I haven't asked her yet how it was, it did look very good.  I ordered a seafood risotto (which for the record, I was not going to, but the waitress said that the risottos were good). As you will see in the photo, it looked pretty average, but I will have to admit it was actually not bad. I wouldn't kill for it, but I would still give it a 7/10.  All in all, as I said at the start, the place is as you would expect it to be. Will I go back.....hmmmm, maybe not, just because there are many other restaurants in Geelong that I think just try and put in a bit more effort and aren't run as a production.  But in saying that, I am a little unique in that way, I do know a lot of people that would love a place like this where you can go in and know exactly what you are going to get, regardless who the head chef or waitress are that month / year.
