It is a nice small pool so it is not daunting for children who have never learnt to swim. The teacher, Deborah is very patient and calming. They are also flexible to arrange for make-up lessons if your child falls sick. Cost is reasonable too. My daughter is only a beginner so I can't speak for those wanting more advanced training. Overall, we are happy here.

Nice little eatery for simple Chinese food including BBQ items. The fried rice and noodles are really nice too. The prices are food court prices. Atmosphere is cosy and service is very good. Portions are generous too. I won't travel to eat here but I would eat here if I am in the area and looking for a nice place to enjoy a good Chinese meal without a pricey tag

Definitely the best yum cha restaurant you can find outside of the CBD. For me, even in the CBD! The quality is great, always fresh and consistent. The variety is wide and also has items not found in other restaurants. A La Carte menu and quality is always really good too. The ambience is classy and modern and very different from other Chinese restaurants. For what you get, the price is very reasonable. We have brought friends and family there and everyone always agree it is a great restaurant. Be warned though, get there early on weekends lunch time otherwise waiting time can be an hour!

Compared to other Chinese restaurants, their service is prompt, fast and much more professional. The Yum Cha varieties are large, high quality and very fresh. If you care about quality and having a nice experience, then this is highly recommended. The price is reasonable for what you get. Averagely about $25 per person without alcohol

This review is for Sushi Bay, Rouse Hill NSW

The quality of this Sushi Bay is much better than the one in Blacktown. Atmostphere is much nicer too. There are usually specials which are new kinds of sushi. They are usually really good too. The wait is usually over 15 mins during meal times but it is worth it if you want good sushi.

Our whole family loves it here. The service is always friendly and prompt. The food is delicious regardless of what we order. The portion size is generous. We especially love the wedges which they make beautifully! The price is very reasonable for what you get. You don't have to wait too long for your food either. Nice for casual dining.

This review is for Ying Shu Li-Cantwell, Blacktown NSW

I believe in both Western and Chinese medicines. Many times after going through many tests, western doctors are at a loss to treat my symptoms. This ranges from tingling sensations in the finger tips to joint pains and even infertility. Ying has treated me, my husband, friends and their families and have made us well again. She is honest unlike many other operators out there who tries to keep you going back for treatments, she will tell you that you no longer need treatments. She has cured my friends of rheumathoid arthritist, old back injury from skiing and helped us to fall pregnant and have a very healthy baby. Her price is much cheaper than those fancy places in the shopping centres. Plus she is also very caring and have your best interest at heart all the time. Best acupuncturist I know and I have been to quite a few!

This review is for Bella Vista Hotel , Bella Vista NSW

The interior is much nicer than the exterior and we were very pleasantly surprised. It is nice to have a classy pub / bistro in this area. The food is good sized and very yummy although slightly pricey for a bistro. I had the crab pasta and my husband had the burger and both were great. I wanted a glass of house white but couldn't decide which one to go with. The bartender actually offered me tasting portion to help me decide! Never had that at a bar before! Wine was beautiful! Great place for after work drinks or a date. Decor is arty and modern. Undercover parking is ample. Would definitely go back again soon.

Authentic food with a very cosy and inviting ambience. The food is fresh and service is good although the staff's English is not the best. Nice restaurant if you don't want the hustle and bustle of a shopping centre.

I've been here about 5 times now and have been happy everytime with the cut and colour. My stylist, Nancy, is friendly and bubbly and is very experienced with colours and cuts. The pricing is really reasonable too. Glad I found a stylist I can trust to recommend suitable styles and colours.

Approximate cost: $99
