Great amazing night out. It helped to go into this place with an open mind. Loved the characters that all the staff adopt! It is great to see everyone help create the vibe.
The food was great and the cocktails were divine, especially the bad dreams martini.
The overall atmosphere of the mansion is amazing, with lots of little nooks and crannies to explore.

Very busy restaurant, and the staff did their best getting us a table and setting it up. Cocktails were a bit watery and the bruschetta portions quite small but the mains were just WOW! I had the barramundi inferno which just melted in my mouth and the hubby had the eye fillet surf and turf which was cooked to perfection. The staff are friendly and happily joke with you as they serve your meal. Great restaurant to remember for the future!

The night started with the waiter spilling most of my cocktail onto his tray - he handed it to me with only a brief apology instead of getting me a new one.
Entree was a pizza style garlic bread. It was dry and did. It have much of a garlic taste. We hadn't even had a chance to finish when our mains arrived. I ordered the gnocchi with salmon. What greeted me was a large bouquet of parsley and rosemary with the purpose, I suspect, of hiding the mess of good underneath. The salmon in my sauce tasted off, disguised with salt and the gnocchi were clearly not fresh as they were hard and doughy. Hubby had the club sandwich, which he ate only a small part as it was tasteless. Overall, wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Great selection of items. There are so many stalls here! There are a lot of homeware stalls, which are great if you are a local but not so great if you are a tourist. Shuttle bus is a great idea and so cheap.

Great little spot for a coffee. Was very busy when we went. Great coffee. I had the cherry ripe cheesecake and it was nice. Hubby's pie was ok but arrived broken and squashed.

Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic food!
We ordered a range of tapas. The clams were juicy, the pork ribs just melted away from the bone, yummy dips and the haloumi with pear salad was amazing. We went for seconds with chicken strips that were mouth watering and the calamari.
The cocktails were amazing. I had a great lychee caprikosia and my hubby had a great long island and a Pineapple Express.
Great service with friendly staff. Live music was great as well. Definitely one to remember!

Great fruit shop in Miranda. Prices are a bit hit and miss, but some things are really great value for money. The produce is fresh and there is a great range of items from European (Italian/Greek) delis such as cheeses, cold meats and pastas.

This review is for Shire First Mortgages, Gymea NSW

I have had two loan in the past organised by Shire First Mortgages. Each time they have been professional and have found the best mortgage option for me. We recently reviewed our loan and once again received fabulous service and a package was found to suit our needs. I would definitely recommend Shire First to anyone who needs a loan, whether they are starting out like I originally was, or onto their second mortgage.

This review is for Buddha Beach Thai Restaurant, Cronulla NSW

Nice little Thai place. Loved the duck cups for the entrée and the herb duck on lettuce. Mains were really nice, especially the pork belly. Good prices for the quality of food. Only downside was the Thai beef salad which seemed to be made with strips of tough burnt beef.

This review is for Opah, Cronulla NSW

A great place for Greek food in Cronulla. I love the set menu - while it is 'all you can eat' you are left feeling full and satisfied afterwards.
This place is great for a nice lunch or dinner - the lamb is amazing!
