Lonely Planet review for Café Eucalyptus

The irreverent Eucalyptus menu proudly declares that it doesn’t serve ‘customs officials, crazy bus drivers, or airline executives.’ For the rest of us, dozens of Cuban, Vietnamese, Spanish and other reliably delicious international dishes are served at cozy tables near roaring fireplaces, and an extensive variety of wines and beers flow from the gorgeous bar. This wonderful restaurant should cure any gringo’s hankering for home, and, thankfully, it still serves guidebook writers.

    I loved fire place, however...

    ikuy recommends this,

    If you order something with noodle, pasta, Pad Thai etc, they serve a tiny bit of the noodle and lots of sauce, which has very strong taste. Watch out people with high blood pressure. Asian cuisine are unfortunately not authentic.

    Great atmosphere, nice waiters, good food, best dessert!

    tesco recommends this,

    I like the atmosphere, with the couches and fire place. Although it is pretty chilly (in july) if you don't sit next to the fire place. But when the couch became free, it was no problem to change me and my table full of food next to the fire place. The entrée I had, humus with bread, was delicious, although I'm normally not a humus fan. The steak was good, but nothing special (I recommend trying another dish). The glass of wine was so full it could have been two glasses, and it was a good wine for the price I paid ($3,50 a glass). At least, the flamed banana with ice cream was delicious! Best I've ever had!
    Also really important: the service was fast and the waiters really nice and polite!
