Enjoyed a meal at The Two Fat Monks for our anniversary. May never of come across this great place if we hadn’t of been given a Good Food Gift Card. Great place, great food & Service in the suburb of Fairfield, I had the Gnocchi & my husband the Salmon that we both throughly enjoyed. Will definitely recommend to family & friends.

We've been to Two Fat Monks a few times now and the food can be really amazing and portion sizes are worth the money. However there are always long waits to be served and get your food. They really need to have a better floor management system so customers can be attended to in a timely manner as this has been an issue since the store opened. In this visit, orders came out wrong and it took a while for someone to come over and fix the problems. Won't be going back anytime soon

We booked through this site, and were very disappointed to find that the menu had been reduced dramatically. The food was pleasant, but the Hollandaise sauce with the breakfast had no piquancy. So for our table of three? We probably won’t be back.

We came for a casual evening meal on a Friday night and really enjoyed the informal atmosphere and the meals. The service was great and the choices on the menu were plenty.
