43 Below Restaurant Lounge Bar - Perth

This underground restaurant and pub is great for its $15 changing lunch specials. Everyone at my table was happy with their steak chips, pulled beef cheek irish stew, 43 below burger (massive! , fish n chips, barramundi lentils... but my mini burgers was a let down. Besides getting my meal 10 minutes after everyone else... the wagyu beef slider was ok but lacked sauce, had to add it myself. And the pulled pork slider sounded great but it was sooooo dry it was actually inedible! Im giving them a generous score coz the rest of my table was happy and the prices are reasonable... hard to find in perth!

4e Below. What can I say, you’re a hidden gem in the undergrowth of a neglected street of a neglected city.<br/ <br/ And when I say undergrowth, I mean it, literally. Namely, due to your basement location, but also because you are more elusive than Mat Coleman since 2008. I never knew about that guy...<br/ <br/ Your special on a Tuesday is a curry and beer. This week it was one of my favourites: a green curry. For all accounts, it was well enjoyed. <br/ <br/ You also have a large sausage. In fact, when you flopped out 2 of those babies on the plate, it looked real scrumptious. Apparently it was.<br/ <br/ The décor is that of Cheers bar meets Paddy’s bar. Quite homely. It says “come with friends, or cum on friends. Everyone is welcome. Even watto.”<br/ <br/ There were no di*kheads playing ridiculously loud acoustic numbers, rather a background playlist that drowned out the awkwardness when the waitress noticed Beau staring at her ladybits.<br/ <br/ Suggestions: spend more on advertising. If people actually know you exist, they might increase your patronage to a more-deserved 10+

We want the name changed back to ALHAMBRA. Sounds so much better and even though it 's the name from the past, it sounds like a great 'now ' name !!A L H A M B R A

The menu was nothing special so we ended up with fish and chips. Both were oilier than I would have preferred but tasted good and the salad was quite respectable too. I know it was a Wednesday night but I was surprised to find that we were the only table in the dining area. I hope it is busier for them on other nights but at least it meant fast service for us.

One night in Perth on business, this place provided a good night. With Stella and a pizza for $20 and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, it reminded me of home (England)
