The Onion room is super nice. It transform into a church on a Sunday morning. The RSL Staff are very welcoming, very helpful and accommodating for the church goers.

So taking my nan to brunch we made the last minute decision to check the bistro out as it's been many years since we last come, And years ago this bistro was great, It was our go to place for lunch and dinner. We literally walked in looked at the menu My nan said this is an RSL Club you can't justify these prices and we walked out. That was a few months ago Fast forward to last night. We had a couple of beers played a few games Bar Staff is nice enough gaming staff are fantastic The atmosphere just isn't great any more it's definitely not the Great RSL it use to be. We decided to grab dinner After going through the menu My Husband said let's go elsewhere As $27 for a chicken schnitzel at a local club is too much (were use to paying $14.50 for 2 pieces a very full plate indeed) I said let's give it ago the prices may be worth it This is our first and only time. My husband got a Prawn Linguine For a dish that has so much going one It was flavourless he ended up put a fair bit of salt and pepper just too give it flavour! I wanted a Chicken Parmi As you can tell alot about a place by there Chicken Parmi's Well I was in complete shock when I read that you charge an extra $6 for ham! WTAF Charging an extra $6 for an ingredient that's automatically part of the dish. Like you don't charge people extra for putting eggs in an egg salad or Beetroot on a hamburger How Unaustralian Shame on you! So I just got a schnitzel The piece was small to medium But it was cooked very nicely for a frozen piece (And yes I know it's frozen because I've worked in Hospitality long enough to tell the difference) the veggies were cooked nicely it was a very basic pub meal definitely not worth the money though After this experience it makes up very hesitant to try your other restaurants at the club something we were excited to do.

The food was nice and the atmosphere was great very quiet and relaxing. However, their food options are not worth the price paid for as well as their drink prices were too high e.g A monster drink for $12 and others

We go here to play pool, eat and gamble a little. Food is good.big place. No craft beer on tap and pool tables don't always work. Very nice staff. Always helpful

I went to BBQ88 for dinner last night. It cost $106 for two adults. The food was dreadful. It claims to be Korean BBQ but it brings shame to the Korean BBQ industry.

The only good food was the rice. That’s it. The rice made in a rice cooker. The kimchi was Jonga kim chi from a supermarket jar (I know, because I buy eat that exact one at home). The meats had zero flavours. The only sauces available were a poor quality soy sauce and even worse quality sweet chilli sauce. The garlic prawns were the last straw - they were those cheap grey frozen ones with no shells, and came out in a slop of jarred minced garlic.

If I had paid $15-20 for this, I wouldn’t have been disappointed because I’d be getting what I paid for. But for over $100 - it was an insult.

We ordered maybe five or six items (the mini plates of one serving to try them) and we didn’t even finish those. We left without even bothering with dessert.

The guy serving was very nice, so I didn’t want to cause a scene and demand my money back on the spot - but in hindsight I wish that I had. I have thought of nothing else since leaving that restaurant - and it angers me that they are charging people that much money for such poor quality food. It’s outrageous.

There is plenty of parking with full handicap facilities not far away from the main entrance. Inside, it's modern, spacious, clean, and decorated in good taste. Staff welcoming and attentive. Food (Bistro restaurant, good value and quality) Restaurant (Chinese) I recommend booking, nice ambience and food is good value with decent menu.

I've been visiting Smithfield RSL for many years and find it a great place to stop for a quick drink and a meal when I'm coming through.

It has great prices, top value and it's a very comfortable place to relax, chill out and be yourself.

I love going there when I want to 'hide from the world' and have some Edward Zia time.

Great people and love their work!

There is something very wrong with either the PA or the operator or very likely both. Add to that, bad acoustics on stage and you have the perfect storm for a sound check from hell. Experienced the same thing a year ago with the same operator. Such a shame for the artists that work there.
