This review is for Raya Thai, Engadine NSW

While this restaurant looks a bit dated from the outside (my first opinion), I had heard many great things about the food here so I decided to give it a try.

The golden ships just melted in our mouths, and the namsod pork was amazing. I've had several mains there and they were sensational, especially the chicken covered in green curry sauce.

This is a great club. It has a great variety of people and weekly theme nights, which I love. It plays oldschool music which is much better than was is out today.
Retro was fantasic when I approached them for my hen's night. They were accomodating and friendly.

This review is for Australian Outdoor Living, Sydney NSW

We got outdoor blinds installed. They are a bit on the expensive side, however they are custom made and are of high quality. The blinds were ready sooner than expected and I was happy that my wind-tunnel patio is now wind-free. The installer was professional and was a trooper to install 5 large blinds on his own.

On a side note, we received a discount for advertising outside of our house, however the sign was removed by council.

Approximate cost: $7500

This review is for Petbarn, Taren Point NSW

This is the main pet store that we buy our fish and cat litter from. They have great specials and thier fish last a long time. While some things are a bit pricey, we come here for the great service. The staff in the aquarium department are especially helpful and always have the right advice to help us look after our fish.

Dan created our wedding video and we cannot complement him enough on the quality of our video and his professionalism on the day.
He is relaxed and easy going, and seamlessly worked in the background on our big day. He got along well with our photographer and did not overtake the altar at the church like I have seem so many other videographers do at other weddings. He captured all of the 'big' moments created an amazing highlights video with our chosen music. His prices are reasonable and you get a high quality product.

This review is for TPG Internet, Parramatta NSW

We have been for TPG for a couple of years. The have one of the best internet packages on the market. The biggest problem we had was when we signed up to them.

We were told we needed to be home for the connection to occur, and it will happen in the afternoon. My husband took the afternoon off work and went home to wait for the serviceman to come. When it was 5pm, he called TPG and was told the serviceman had come in the morning! He was quite disappointed as he took the afternoon off without pay and noone from the company had called him to tell him that they had already connected the service. We were told that it was out of their hands because the servicemen were Telstra contractors.

When we asked for compensation for our time, we were offerred 2 months free. I wasn't happy with this and the salesman spoke to his supervisor and came back with 2 weeks off! He said the first offer had already expired.

We were so upset at being put on hold constantly and after over 3 phonecalls and several hours of complaints, we gave up dealing with them, as we knew that they only cared about our business and not about keeping the customer happy.

Approximate cost: $60

This review is for The Pizza League, Yarrawarrah NSW

We went here when we first moved to the area. The meals were fantastic. At the time they were offering a meal deal of garlic bread, pizza and drink at a great price. My husband loves the football theme (even though I hate sport). The staff are friendly and eager to please.

Approximate cost: $30

This review is for Tamarind Day Spa, Cronulla NSW

I have only been here with my husband for couples massages. We have done a couple of these here and find them the best value so far. The staff are friendly and help you get relaxed. The only downside is that the experience is over too quickly (I wish I could be there all day!!!)!!

Approximate cost: $400

This review is for Nirvana Beauty, Miranda NSW

I have been here for beauty treatments several times. I have enjoyed the experiences that I have had here, especially the massages and facial treatments.
I have recently undergone a series of laser treatments. While one area is looking fantastic, another area is looking quite patchy, as different staff have a different definition of where the treatment starts and ends on this area.
While I know they have a business and need to sell products, I feel that the staff are quite pushy in their selling of products and treatments.
I think I will stick to massages and facials at this salon.

Approximate cost: $600

I find the staff at Woolworths Engadine really helpful and friendly. I especially LOVE LOVE LOVE the new sushi bar. The sushi is fresh and the staff very helpful.
I love the self-serve checkouts and ALWAYS use them. The store is always neat and well-presented.

Approximate cost: $200
