"Amazing! "

Our experience was amazing. The quality of food for the amazing price reminded me of when restaurant week first began. The Great Eastern Bar is my new favourite place to eat. I can’t stop raving about it enough. The Crispy Tofu in broth was unbelievable. The best tofu I have ever had and the depth of flavor in the broth was phenomenal. I shall definitely return on a regular basis.

My friend and I took the opportunity to relive our recent Thai trip by enjoying the food on offer at The Great Eastern Food Bar on Sunday. It certainly didn't disappoint.
We started off with Thai food and rounded it off with the Japanese dishes on offer. Great timing in light of the success the Springboks had in Japan the previous day.
What it did remind us of is the desperate need to travel and explore the great tastes of the East.

Had a fabulous tapas meal at The great eastern food bar in the Post office centre Rudd road illovo. Wooden benches very casual, place was full even though it was a Tuesday night. The different tapas dishes we had were delicious and it was a very enjoyable evening. Will definitely go back.
