This review is for Al Martino's Italian Restaurant, Panania NSW

My favourite restaurant, which I frequent often with family and friends!!! The service is friendly and polite which makes the experience all the more enjoyable!!! The restaurant is always extremely busy, so bookings are essential! The food is delicious, (the cheese pizza entree is to die for). The pasta is always delicious and well priced, however on different nights there have been variations in certain dishes from other nights, (ie there have been a couple of occasions where the boscaiola wasnt as tasty as previous times), but generally the food is outstanding!!!! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves good, tasty Italian cuisine!

Approximate cost: $20

Dropped into the salon to chat about my hair (going black to blonde) and spoke with Mel. Mel was extremely friendly, unbelievably helpful and treated me like a valuable customer! Would definitely go back!!! Thanks Mel!

I made an appointment with Renee in reference to my hair needs, as I had spent over one year trying to go blonde from black and wasn't seeing results with my previous hairdresser. Renee was absolutely gorgeous, helpful and extremely friendly!!!! She took the time to sit down with me and discuss my hair, my hair vision and a plan of attack! Renee recommended a 'scalp bleach' to remove the build up of colours, and I felt completely comfortable with Renee, throughout the entire process. Best of all, my hair is now the EXACT colour I envisioned and have been working towards over the last year in one sitting! It is a gorgeous ash blonde colour and it looks beautiful! I am really amazed with the result! I highly recommend Renee, who was extremely friendly, professional and gentle! I also observed her management style with the other girls in the salon and thought her to be kind and reasonable with them, which is nice! PLUS I got the BEST head massage ever which was complimented by their massage chairs at the basin! Awesome experience, thank you Renee!!!!

This review is for Tamee Rene' Makeup Artist, Raby NSW

I organised makeup with Tamee Rene' who was a really gentle and professional individual in person. Tamee has done some amazing work and has a fabulous reputation in the makeup industry. The other person(s) I went with, were more satisfied with their makeup than I was. I also liked the makeup on the other person(s) more than mine, especially the eye makeup, which was a standout. My eyes were pretty good, but foundation wise, I didn't have the 'flawless' look I expected and wanted (my skin is very clear from blemishes so I don't understand how this happened). The people I went to Tamee with said they would go again, but I wouldn't. My makeup looked nice, but it wasn't that special and to me wasn't worth the $80.00. After sifting through her website at the amazing work she has produced I expected a superior result, but in hindsight, although I liked the makeup of the other person(s) I went with, I think I could have done a better or at the very least an equal job of my own makeup as Tamee and saved myself the $80.00.

This review is for Dr. Greg Boulus & Dr. Moheb Farag, Parramatta NSW

I visited this dental surgery to see Dr. Moheb Farag after a recommendation from a friend and found him to be an extremely professional and gentle dentist. I experience significant fear/discomfort when it comes to dentists and Dr. Farag took things very slowly and was very patient with me. I had a few holes in my teeth, in the very early stages of decay, and rather than telling me I needed extensive dental work, gave me the name of a toothpaste which might help to stop the decay process short of extensive dental work, which is commendable. Dr. Farag's prices are very reasonable (quite cheap) which is a refreshing change from all of the other dentists I have been to see. I would highly recommend Dr. Farag and will continue to see him myself as he is well worth the drive from Camden.

Absolutely horrible. The service was appalling, the meals took forever to come out of the kitchen and when they did they were cold! You could hit the top bread roll of my nephews burger on the table and it actually made a tapping noise, (which is how hard and stale the bread roll was). This is the third time we have eaten there (and only because it was a family occasion and the restaurant was not our choice). Any money is too much money to pay for horrible food! Never again.

Approximate cost: $30.00
