Flynns

Also known as Diner Five Five. You can’t go past this place for tasty Italian food at reasonable prices. What I did find surprising for the price with the beautiful setting and décor of the restaurant where modern meets classic. No red and white check table clothes here.
To the food, very nice simple dishes served with quality ingredients. If you want something with a twist, go for one of the chef’s special pizza’s or other dishes. For me, the Greek salad was the winner of the night. Only thing missing — some bread rolls for the table for soaking up the sauces and dressings!

Been here a few times and generally good value for money being as they’re on the cheaper side. Sadly ⁰⁄₂ tonight as fish of the day (grilled salmon)!was very underdone so looked to console myself with an indulgent Belgian waffle but that was black it was so overdone. Dry and tasteless. I think I will pass on this hangout until I see some more positive reviews. On the plus side; service is second to none.

Flynns is the place you can go to week after week and neither the menu nor the wines get tired or a place you can take that special person for intimate dinner.
Just outside of the bustling Crows Nest hub, Flynns is in an ex dry cleaners building and has been beautifully restored (even with some of the old original brickwork) to give it that Italian/​european flavour.
It’s built along two split levels, with an outside deck, classy bar (where Ive had many a beer or wine) and even couches and lounge chairs if you are really just in for a chat and a wine after a hard day at work.
What makes this place so special is the attention to detail in both the food and the service. The owner is almost always there and makes a habit of getting to know his customers but also embracing them into his world. The staff are very attentive and its the perfect place for a 30 min on-​the-​run dinner or a relaxed 3 hour feast with 10 of your mates.
Oh and don’t forget the Argentinian Malbec. To die for!!!
