This review is for The Town Fryer, Williamstown VIC

verified email - 14 Jun 2010

I found choice of fish to be very limiting. The only fish on offer seemed to be a very thin piece of Flake at $5 a serve. Chips were served from bain marie and were cold upon receipt. Dim sims were those from Sth Melbourne market (too meaty for me). No other dim sims on offer, although when The town Fryer runs out of the Sth Melb market dim sims they do offer traditonal dim sims but do not reduce for smaller product (we paid same price as bigger dim sims). Calamari seemed to be the crumbed Fish Surimi product.

Location is great as it is right next to the park and pier. Good fish and chip shop for tourists that don't want to travel far. (Note: Wasn't aware of fish and chip value offer and staff did not bring this to attention)

Approximate cost: $14

This review is for Blue Oracle Takeaway, Williamstown VIC

We were served by a lovely lady who gave great service despite being huffed and puffed at by her gentleman co-worker.
Hamburger taste resembled that of the frozen type you buy at the supermarket (substitute mince used for patty)
Male co-worker had no respect for staff and no pride in providing good customer service experience. Business needs to be overtaken by someone that doesn't "eyeball" customers and staff.
Would not revisit unless new management comes in.
Overall experience was just too uncomfortable. A happy work place is essential.

This review is for Lion Dance Chinese Restaurant, Williamstown VIC

verified email - 13 May 2010

Decided to give Lion Dance a second chance after not having a very good experience with the Banquet Meal (Meat and Chicken was tough). This time we kept away from the Banquet meal and ordered entrees and mains which were of good standard and very tasty. Service was attentive.

Approximate cost: $70

This review is for Sunny Side Hot Bread Kitchen, Thomastown VIC

verified email - 07 Apr 2010

This hot bread has fantastic, delicious bread. Very fresh bread rolls. I would recommend the bread to anyone but beware there are no prices displayed. The prices change according to who serves you and also changes depending on which day you go. Service is rude. Ladies behind the counter just grunt at you and walk off while you are talking.

Approximate cost: $6

This review is for Bunnings Warehouse, Thomastown VIC

verified email - 07 Apr 2010

Generally Bunnings Thomastown is a good place to find all those house hold hardwares. Although at times I find the service a bit lacking. Last week I went to Bunnings to buy some plastic. After two calls over the speaker and 10 minutes later nobody ever came to serve. Greeting staff tried to get a team member to help but his response was "ha, what, ha". There were 10 staff near the checkout area and nobody came to help. I understand that each staff member has their own work to do but one thing to remember is that without customers purchases there are no jobs. I ended up walking out empty handed.

This review is for Verna Kitchen Components, Campbellfield VIC

verified email - 05 Mar 2010

Overall very disappointing. Required Kitchen cupboards doors. Packs received were inconsistent in color and efforts to match grains were not met. Promised delivery date of 10 working days was not delivered. Total delivery time was 4 weeks. Also some sizes were incorrectly cut. Error was fixed but not by promised date. When I rang the office to see how my order was progressing one staff said that doors were drying another staff said that doors hadn't been cut.

Approximate cost: $600

This review is for Chow Garden Chinese Restaurant, Epping VIC

verified email - 05 Mar 2010

Very tasty food at this restaurant. A little more expensive than similar restaurants in the area but portions are slightly larger. Banquets offered by this restaurant and are good value for money. Would be nice if a variety of spring rolls were offered instead of just chicken and beef. Overall, experience was good and food was well presented. Waiting time was acceptable and staff were pleasant. Would recommend to locals and those passing through. The only thing to mention here is that there were greasy finger marks on walls and glass fridge. Also, the front sink looks like it needs a good clean. Cleanliness is essential.

Approximate cost: $25

This review is for Electrodry Carpet Dry Cleaning, Braeside VIC

verified email - 16 Feb 2010

Satisfactory service provided by Electrodry. Phone staff were pleasant. Cleaner was on time and polite. 2.5m x 2.5m area was charged at minimum call out fee of $89. Carpets looked clean when finished although fluff and dirt remained in the corners. Machine left carpet residue on skirting and tiles.

Approximate cost: $89
