Glasshouse - MONA VALE

Food pretty and service pretty good but due to children can be noisy at times, especially in the adjacent areas . Adequate parking.

We had a large group & booked ahead as it was the June long weekend. It was fully booked & very busy. The meals took about an hour to arrive but were delicious. The lamb shanks are to die for & everyone loved their meal. Would definitely go back.

2 adults and 3 children for Friday lunch.Pizzas were generously topped, but not unpleasantly overloaded. Good thin base, although it could have been a little crisper. By contrast, the kids' gelato was a disappointing experience. Only 4 flavours were on offer. There was only enough chocolate gelato for 2 serves. A request for a refill of the chocolate was met with a bald, firm statement that an order had not come. Customer service lacking there. One child gamely offered to have lemon gelato. What a sad experience that was. There was no discernible lemon flavour, just a strange vinegar-like taste accompanied by a harsh, lingering chemical overtone. Lemon gelato is a personal favourite and I could not tolerate more than a tiny taste. The children were good sports and shared the 2 chocolate ice creams available. The small spend on the lemon was a complete waste. Such a shame that the negative aspects of desert and service over shadowed the positive enjoyment of the pizza.Surprisingly, Nonnas restaurant was not busy on a Friday lunchtime in January. There were only about a dozen people in the area. It was a pity that our fun lunch ended on a sour note.

Cafe/restaurant that serves people who stay at the holiday inn.
