I have to definitely agree with a previous review that this place is all about quantity rather than quality. For starters, the cheesy garlic bread with jalapeños had no heat or spice and was significantly undercooked and very doughy throughout. The top was grilled well and had a pleasant garlic/cheesy flavour which made it edible though.
My wife’s Chilli Prawn Spaghetti Pasta was very disappointing. Pasta was well over cooked as were the prawns, and the sauce was extremely bland with no spice, seasoning or chilli taste at all. One of the most boring seafood pasta dishes we’ve tasted in a long time. There were also several pieces of fettuccine off-cuts amongst the dish that indicates to me a rushed and undisciplined cooking process.
My Mexican Chicken Parmigiana was also very lacklustre in flavour. The dish comes out looking huge (excuse me for thinking this reeks of ‘this will make up for the rest of the dishes failings), stacked on a large bunch of soggy undercooked chips which initially gives you a bit of a ‘wow’ factor, that is until you start digging into the meal. The chicken is obviously flattened significantly to achieve a large plate size, resulting in it being inevitably overlooked and dry in the middle. I couldn’t taste any ham whatsoever, the cheese, mushrooms and capsicum also lacked any flavour or noticeable attempt of seasoning to resurrect this most mediocre of dishes I have tasted in quite some time. The chips, as I mentioned were quite undercooked, pale in colour and soggy, being buried under a large flattened piece of chicken. My wife and I spent a significant amount of time attempting to season our dishes to the point whereby we’d find them at minimum “palatable”, however our attempts ultimately failed and we were left feeling very disappointed. Even our 8 y/o son failed to finish even half his kids menu spag bolognese as it was so tasteless. Asking politely for some tomato sauce with his chips, a full 500ml plastic bottle of bottle of Fountain Tomato Sauce was dumped next to his plate by the waiter. Minus 3 points for class guys...
I would suggest the management of Lazy Moe’s should seriously consider working with their head chef to cut down the ridiculously oversized menu (especially pastas), in order to achieve more flavorable dishes, at the minor expense of portion sizes of the remaining dishes to a level more aligned with what “Slices” seems to provide with more consistency in the Western Suburbs, and reinforce the importance of the basic cooking principles of seasoning (either through some basic spices or simply S&P) to enhance the flavours of the dish for serving.
If it weren’t for the efficient, friendly service, cleanliness (restaurant and rest rooms) we experienced tonight, I would have rated this place 1 star due to the food alone. Kudos to the staff though for lifting it to a still very disappointing “2” stars. Unfortunately I can’t say I’ll be returning in a...
Read moreWell Well Well what to say I'm going to start this off with a it’s not the same as it used to be. I think the owners have changed because the whole place is a mess I went there on a Sunday night around 10:10 but going off the information online its closes 11 pm now I was only going for pancakes but the very rude and disrespectful waitress said that she wont take anymore orders as we where leaving we notice that they had customers eating and they were mopping the floors and pouring water everywhere this too me was very unprofessional.
Now 5 days later we decided to go with family and eat there late dinner we got there around 8:30 when we were ready to order we had to call the waitress as they were busy with maybe other customers I mean we where the only people there and there was another couple and 3 waitresses but thats okay. So we waited and waited and waited for our food to arrive and in this time not one other customer came in and this was a Wednesday night but anyways the food took 1 plus to arrive that food was decent but I did see a hair on my chip but I didn’t complain or say anything I threw it out and said nothing because if I returned it who knows what they would have done.
Anyways we finished our mains and wanted pancakes we order 3 pancaked one was the maple pancake we asked for extra syrup because the pancakes would be big, now this is were it get annoying after we told her we wanted extra syrup in our order once the food came we had to remind her multiple times that we order extra and when they brought it it was only a size of dipping sauce size this is not what we meant when we order extra so we ordered again and this time the very rude waitress that had very poor English skills just said sorry at first we did not mean why she said sorry and thought she apologised for not bringing us syrup anyways we had to tell here again and she sorry i have to ask when she asked they said the chef said no okay whatever i went to tell we will pay for it dosent matter i will pay for it please.
We got the syrup and i swear to got there was spit in it we all looked it and we saw the white foamy spit on top we did not have it in the time we went to pay as they were bringing the syrup to us as they gave us the bill before the syrup came at the counter they said sorry you bill has been updated because of the extra syrup 7 dollars for not even 20 ml of syrup we paid at the end no point arguing these people do not care about hospitality and the care of food but only that u pay alot for cheap easy food the food is not what it once was in the past the whole place has gotten bad spider webs in the roof and dirty tables underneath very unprofessional and disrespectful disgusting hygiene in in the toilet and everything very disappointed here before id say it was a 10/10 place to go there now go there only for bad food bad hospitality and a big price tag at...
Read moreLazy Moe’s: Where the Menu is Big, the Portions are Bigger, and the Food Comas are Guaranteed
If you’ve ever wanted to experience the sheer terror of trying to choose your meal from a menu roughly the size of a novel, then Lazy Moe’s is the place for you. Seriously, the menu is so big I half expected it to come with a bookmark and a table of contents. Thankfully, we had the lovely Mary Anne to guide us through this epic saga of food options—without her, we might still be there debating whether to order breakfast, lunch, or just surrender entirely.
I went with the pancakes, bacon, eggs, and maple syrup, because why choose between sweet and savory when you can just have it all? It arrived looking like a deliciously unholy food pyramid—fluffy pancakes, crispy bacon, runny eggs, all drowning in a generous flood of maple syrup. It was the kind of meal that makes your doctor shake their head in disappointment, but your taste buds throw a party.
My partner, clearly feeling more adventurous (or just in the mood to confuse her stomach), went for the Fisherman’s Basket. Because nothing says “brunch” like a deep-fried ocean, right? The plate arrived looking like Poseidon himself had personally blessed it—piles of golden calamari, fish, prawns, and chips. I think I saw a life preserver underneath it all, just in case.
By the time we finished, we were less like customers and more like survivors. Lazy Moe’s doesn’t just feed you; it challenges you. We waddled out of there full, happy, and slightly fearful of ever looking at a menu that long again. If you’re hungry, indecisive, and ready to eat like a king (or at least a king who has given up on portion control), Lazy Moe’s is the place to be.
10/10 – Would return, but only after a full digestive...
