It's for my brother's graduation dinner. I would lean towards quantity than quality. He's more of a potatoes & steak person and have no appreciation of fine dining with small portions.
Any recommendations! If there are places like Sequia 88 or Valentines buffet, it will be great.

Pretty sure theres a valentines (i think its on ferguson st, next to the mcds) There is a lone star in town. Mongolian bbq is good (dinner you pay set price, comes with all you can eat dinner which has a small buffet selection. Main is stirfry etc, you choose meats, veges, noodles etc, add your own sauce to flavour, then they cook it in front of you. Dessert is pancake, again cooked infront of you) kinda small resteraunt, so depends on numbers you are thinking of

I would recommend Speights Ale House, their meals are very generous, great variety and good prices.They have an upstairs dining area which could take a larger group.We have never been disappointed when eating there.

Lone Star sounds like an option along the 'big is good' lines. Congrats to your brother - it's worth celebrating.

Yep, heaps of places but some better than others.Will never go back to Acqua (sp) Bar, last time they brought the main out while still eating our entrée, sent it back, and when the main was brought out again, the steak was cold so probably just sat there waiting on us to finish our first course.

Thank u all for the recommendations. It would be a party of 11.(5 family, while 6 others invited themselves so I am not feeling so 'generous' in treating them all to LoneStar).
I also expect most places will be book out since its graduation time. And thanks nellbee for ur kind words, I myself am amazed that 6years of drinking n clubbing and he will have a dr. next to his name.

On no account go to Valentines.
Lone Star would be great.If you book early enough they have a separate room out the back.

Thank you so much for the template! My theme this year is suoerherpes and I added a text to them for our TEST - "We are SUPER test takers!" They turned out so cute!
