I've rain-checked items here without any problem and the staff are always very helpful. The fresh fruit and veg are always very good. Some of the baked goods don't last at all, but if you can eat them quickly then that's fine. The beef mince has lost an abnormal amount of fluid when cooking on two occasions, but that could be for a number of reasons. For the most part the meat is always good. I like that there's plenty of variety and there's a better selection of pet products than at other small supermarkets. The store always seems clean and tidy and I haven't had trouble finding anything I need. The Lenards in store is also really handy.

I use this post office only because it's the closest/easiest one available that I know of, and it's a fair drive from Deebing Heights. Regardless of the travel, staff are always friendly and I can do what I need to do. Nothing has ever gone missing and I've not had issues collecting my parcels to date. Overall I'm happy with the service.

This review is for Pizza Capers, Yamanto QLD

I love Pizza Capers! The breads are delicious and the pizzas are even better. Ingredients look and taste fresh and go all the way to the edge. I don't need to re-arrange the topping like I do with a Dominos pizza. They've never made a mistake with our order and the staff always greet us with a smile. Food always arrives on time and very hot when we've requested delivery. The store always looks clean and even though the complex is only small I can always find a car park out front. Just great all-round.

This review is for Noodle Club, Flinders View QLD

Noodle Club make the best noodles I've found in the area to date and I've been here over a year so I've tried most. Staff are friendly and the store is always clean and well presented. I often order their boxes and ask them to change and Oyster/ Fish sauce to BBQ and they're always happy to do so. The food tastes amazing and value is pretty good, too. The food doesn't take long to cook, but you can call ahead if you're short on time. They're cash only, no cards, but there's an ATM at the shopping centre directly across the car park. I always make sure to have cash handy for my noodle fix!

This review is for Network Video Winston Glades, Flinders View QLD

We've come to really enjoy visiting this Network Video store. It's run by a friendly family and they're all great to chat to and very knowledgeable about all things television and cinema related. They stock US goodies and have a merchandise range unlike any I've ever seen before. The store is always clean and well presented. A lot of time, love and care goes into the operation of the store and the way it looks. Visit it and you'll see what I mean! It's easy to find the DVD you wish to hire, and there's a few extra things they've done to make the experience even more enjoyable. The movie deals are great value, and there's a pre-paid card and a TV show pass which I have not seen in a store before, but absolutely LOVE. We won't hire a DVD or game anywhere else. Keep up the amazing work, guys.

This review is for Deng's Diner, Raceview QLD

We went to Deng's Diner quite late one night and we caught them within 30 minutes of closing. We weren't sure what time they closed. We were going to leave without ordering but they were friendly and said they'd love to cook our meal. So we were happy with the service from the moment we ordered.
The food was amazing. Hubby said it was the best Combination Omelette he'd ever tasted, the mixed entree was larger than most and my Sweet and Sour Pork was just to die for. The sauce comes on the pork, not in a separate tub, but that's how I think it should be. I've heard the lemon chicken here is great so we'll be going back soon to try it and I'll update my review then. Small store, but clean and very friendly staff. Great food at a good price. We won't go anywhere else now.

This review is for Capalaba Corner Hair Design, Capalaba QLD

Lauren is amazing with colour. I had been black (naturally medium brown) for 4 years and decided I was tired of it. Several hairdressers refused to see me, and some quoted in excess of $270 for a single visit. I already knew this would mean frying and damaging my really long, fine hair. My grandmother was having her hair cut here one day and I asked one of the girls what they could do and a rough estimate. Price quote was incredible and in just 1 visit almost all of the colour was out. I went back to have a colour put over to try to blend it but didn't go quite dark enough (partially my fault for choosing that colour). We went a shade darker on my 3rd, and final visit and I am truly impressed with the result. She worked a miracle and my hair is still is amazingly good condition. If you want someone who knows their colour, go to Lauren. She even cut hubby's hair well.
I don't need another hairdresser now. I've found 'the One'. All of the ladies in this salon are really lovely, very talented and the value and attention to detail here is outstanding!
NB: I live in Ipswich and I drive all the way to Capalaba just to have my hair done, they're just that good.

Approximate cost: $90.00
