Harika - Ashfield

Is it like a partly Portuguese chicken shop, partly turksih kebab shop and harika? that is not a Japanese name? I mean, they're all trades and masters of none. they should decide who they are or what they do. you can't be anything. to all people, and every time I've ever eaten there, there was something mixed about eating. they bring me food that I didn't order, and once I ordered a chickenburger, and that huh was super-ultra spicy! I couldn't eat it. I had to complain.

I stopped by Harika for a quick visit on Saturday, 05/08/17. I ordered a banana bread with a flat white coffee. The service was friendly and the restaurant had a welcoming interior. The menu prices were very reasonable for dining in or taking out. Harika is conveniently located in a vibrant area just a short walk from Ashfield Railway Station and the shopping center.

This bustling café is best accessed on foot as there is limited parking, with the closest option being in the Ashfield Mall. A group of nine of us visited for Saturday morning breakfast and found the staff to be friendly and efficient in seating us in a small room. There was no table service, so we had to order individually at the counter, which slowed things down slightly. Despite this, the food selection was good and although the wait time was a bit long, considering the number of orders placed at once, as well as those from other customers in the café, it was acceptable. We were all happy with the quality and portion size of our meals, and the coffee was also enjoyable. The only downside was that the prices at this small local café were a bit on the high side.

I'll meet you for coffee this morning. The staff is friendly, and they serve tasty burgers quickly.

The owner is always sitting in the cafe looking bored and unhappy and it clearly feeds off to his staff who look confused and self conscious as they take orders. The kitchen is far too big for the size of the cafe and makes the...place smell like old food come 2pm. The counter, coffee station, is messy. There is no nice decor and music is too loud, I would never want to sit in this place. The coffee is good but better can be found at cafe Charlotte and campos in the shopping centre. gordon Ramsay would have a field day here on kitchen nightmares.
