I have been there for a meal once and although we waited an hour for the food, it was quite good. Thankfully they had a children's play area to help keep my 20-month old entertained. I contacted them by email early April this year about information regarding their function rooms and packages and six months later I am still awaiting a reply. I found this very disappointing.

I have ordered takeaway from this restaurant many times and the food is always great and last Saturday we decided to dine there for my mother's birthday and even though they were very busy (they always are) the service and meals were terrific. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Approximate cost: $12-17

This review is for Amici's Italian Restaurant, South Brisbane QLD

A large group of us went to lunch at Amici's last Saturday and we were very impressed by the service and food. The meals were large and tasty and the staff were very accommodating with the three young children with us and nothing was a problem. The only thing I would change was the children's meals (which were great value) came out as entrees and by the time the adult's meals arrived the kid's had long finished and were bored. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be going back!

This review is for MT Brewery, Tamborine Mountain QLD

Our experience at Mt Brewery Bistro is one that I'd rather forget. I have never had such terrible service or seen such bad organisation. Our family (8 adults, 2 children) decided to go there for lunch on Easter Monday and knowing it would be busy we were prepared for a wait. We ordered our meals together (which were just burgers and chips) and received two meals after 20mins, 4 meals after another 30 minute wait and after an hour and a half of waiting my brother and his wife had still not received their meals. As we had two young children with us he had to request a refund so we could leave and hardly got an apology. We approached the waitresses and waiters several times during our wait to ask them when they would be ready but they were very unhelpful and never returned to the table to inform us if the meals were coming or not. A very disappointing experience and put a dampener on our whole day.

I have been going to this hairdressers for many years and the value for money is unbeatable. Staff are friendly and helpful and it is always a good experience.

This review is for Fabulous Fruit, North Lakes QLD

This fruit shop is the best in the area, high quality produce with only one bad experience of a whole bag of brown avocados stopping me from giving them a perfect score. Service is great and excellent value for money.

This review is for Chipmunks Playland & Cafe, Lawnton QLD

My 16mth old daughter loves it here. The under 5's area has lots of climbing structures, slides and my daughter's favourite, the piano mat that plays a tone when they step on it. This is the best play/cafe I've visited so far and the only downside is sometimes the older kids come into the under 5 area and are quite rough, I'm always close to her but she still ends up getting knocked over a few times. Some policing in this area would be great. Finding a table or carpark on the weekend can be hard also. Love the coffee here and food is well-priced.

Approximate cost: $9

This review is for Go Wild Activity Centre, Strathpine QLD

verified email - 29 Jul 2010

A nice big centre with a large play structure for the over 4's but we were a bit disappointed by the under 4 area. It is a nice big area but there was not enough to stimulate my 16mth old daughter and 3yr old nephew for long. The whirring noise from the fan for the jumping castle got very annoying after a while also. We ended up leaving after about 30mins.

Approximate cost: $8
