Lazy Lizard

.: : ::: - Visited Lazy Lizard at NEWest and really enjoyed the chill atmosphere. Since the mall is usually quiet, it feels less crowded and more relaxed, with a niche crowd that seems to know this place well. The highlight for me was the signature messy cheeseburger, which was juicy, cheesy, and packed with flavour. They also have a good range of draft beers, which makes it an even better spot to hang out and unwind after a day at work!. 😊👍🏻✨✨✨✨

I came here with my wife for a casual lunch. It's located at NeWest, making it a convenient option for residents living nearby. The waitress was warm and friendly, which made the dining experience even more pleasant. We ordered the duck confit and the squid ink risotto. Both dishes were quite enjoyable. The risotto came in a very generous portion—so much so that we couldn't finish it. The duck confit was nicely cooked, although the sauce wasn't quite to my personal taste. The grilled garlic, however, was a brilliant addition and paired beautifully with the duck. Their potato fries are great, neither soggy nor too dry, and the potato is fresh! The prices are reasonable, and overall, we had a pleasant weekday lunch at this cosy bar.

I’m having dinner at Lazy Lizard right now, and it’s such a great find in the West Coast area. It has a very laid-back, welcoming vibe. Definitely a "hidden gem" for a chill neighborhood meal. The Food Duck Confit: This was the highlight for me. The duck is just as good as it looks in the photos, with the skin done perfectly. I absolutely love the sauce (Spicy Cumin Mango Chutney) it comes with; it’s a really interesting blend of sweet, fruity, and just a hint of spiciness. Classic Ribeye: A very reliable choice if you’re looking for a hearty steak. It was cooked well and satisfied that craving for a classic Western main. Pan Seared Halibut: This was a great lighter option. The fish was seared nicely, keeping it moist and flavourful. Menu Variety: They have a solid range of Western comfort food. Aside from these mains, they’ve got plenty of pasta, burgers, and pizzas, plus a good selection of craft beers. Service & Vibe The staff here are very friendly and attentive, which makes the whole experience feel personal and relaxed. They were quick to help without being overbearing. It’s a very family-friendly spot, perfect for a casual dinner without any fuss.

I visited this restaurant specifically to try the Cheesy Messy Beef Burger. The burger was satisfying and well-prepared, accompanied by a generous, heaped portion of fries on the side. In terms of accessibility, the establishment was not very crowded during my visit, which made it easy to enter and find a table without any delay. The staff members were polite and kind during our interactions. However, they spent most of their time in the kitchen or back area rather than on the dining floor. This made it somewhat difficult to catch their attention for additional orders or further assistance after the food was delivered. While the meal itself was high quality and the portions were large, the lack of floor presence from the service team is something to keep in mind if you prefer more attentive service. Overall, it is a solid choice for a quiet meal if you are looking for a filling burger.

I decided to come here because many customers mentioned in their reviews that this is a very kids-friendly place. I chose the outlet nearest to my home and brought my toddler here for lunch, and we absolutely loved it! We visited on a weekday afternoon, and it was really quiet, with us being the only customers at the time. My girl absolutely loved the little play area, and it gave both my husband and me a chance to enjoy a peaceful lunch together while she played nearby. ❤️ To our surprise, the food was actually really tasty! My girl not only enjoyed playing with the toys, but once she was satisfied with her playtime, she happily came back to us and ate her meal too. Overall, we had such a pleasant experience and will definitely be coming back again in the future. A great place for parents who want to enjoy a meal while their little ones have some fun too! 😊

Dropped by Lazy Lizard @ Newest and had a really enjoyable meal. Ordered the fish and chips — nicely done, crispy, and the portion was generous. Paired it with a pint of Toothys lager (Aussie beer) which was smooth, crisp, and easy to drink. Nice little bonus was the promo where ordering a main came with a free kids’ meal, which was a pleasant surprise. The ambience is chill and relaxed, perfect for winding down without feeling rushed. Definitely a place I’d come back to for a casual meal and a cold beer.

We were greeted by warm smiles and humorous rapport with the servers, they calmly explained our seating arrangements and took our orders! The service was detailed, and the food was well made! The beef sirloin was served perfectly tender on the inside, and the fish and chips were crisp. These qualities spelt a wonderful time of gastronomy and camaraderie for the family. Plus, the carbonara quickly became a favorite amongst our two young nephews. Will definitely recommend this place again!

Good food and value, haven't been to Lazy Lizard for a while and it's great to see the standard is still v. high. Excellent fries, grilled halibut was fantastic.
