5 Stars for this gem of a Thai restaurant. My husband and I went on a saturday date night to this wonderful restaurant. It was our first time here and I had a delicious Mussaman Beef Curry. We also enjoyed an entree of curry puffs. The service was excellent and the staff spoilt us wrotten. Also if you finish your meal before 6:30pm you get 10% discount. We went 3 mins over that but it didn't matter we both loved it and are going back.

Approximate cost: $45.00

This review is for Indique, Victoria Point QLD

Indique was a little bit disappointing I found. I decided upon the Beef Korma, it was cooked nice and hot but still for some reason tasted about as good as someone buying a packet one at the supermarket. My other disappointment was the naan bread I got, it was paper thin, with no filling at all and it just felt like I was eating paper. I was hoping that this place would be much better as the view it had was truly amazing. The staff were excellent I can't commend them highly enough, my meal was just no good. If I go there again I will be choosing more wisely off the menu.

This review is for Alexandra Hills Hotel-Motel, Alexandra Hills QLD

I've been to the Alexandra Hills Hotel lots of times and I really enjoy the Dinners there. My favourite was the crumbed calamari but just in the last time I went I noticed they only had salt & pepper calamari which is just too doughy. I do enjoy their steaks also and rump seems the best value for me. They make the best chips of any hotel in the redlands without a doubt. I've also had breakfast on a weekend and that was nice to enjoy their cereals, pankcakes and heaps of hot food eggs/bacon. I also went for breakfast on fathers day with my in-laws but noticed the price was alot higher. I would recommend the alex to anyone wanting a nice cosy meal or breakfast on a weekend. I don't like the nightclub they have there I think it's full of young hooligans who just don't behave. But apart from that, I love it.

This review is for Muffin Break, Loganholme QLD

Muffin Break is a great option if you like gourment muffins, I like the chocolate and butterscotch muffins but on my last visit I've branched out to Blueberry. I'm a member of their coffee rewards program and also enjoy a free coffee every now and again. I also enjoy their wraps and often will have these toasted as a lunch and finish off with my muffin. The downside to muffin break is the expense, I don't feel I get alot for my money at times.

This review is for Chez Nous Gourmet Sidewalk Cafe, Brisbane QLD

I decided to meet my husband for lunch in town. Chez Nous had plenty of options to choose from but I was torn between Grilled Fish and Salad and their beautiful salad wraps. My husband suggested buying both and sharing which then gave us the chance to try each others. They were both pretty good but I think for me the Grilled fish won. It was yummy. It was quite a late lunch in the end but we also stumbled across another bonus. At the time we both ordered coffee it registered as happy hour so it made it all the cheaper for us. The only thing that was annoying is that it was extremely busy and it made it a little bit hard for my husband and I to have good conversation. The cafe was loverly and clean and the staff were more than friendly. I enjoyed it not just for the range of food but the quality was truly amazing. I'm looking at going again but next time possibly for a breakfast. Whilst I was having lunch there I noticed that they had some good breakfast options and I'd really like to try them. I am more than happy with the lunch. Breakfast there would be my next wish!!!!

This review is for Grand View Hotel, Cleveland QLD

I took my husband out for a nice tea and was amazed by the beauty of the building, I really like it. It's what attracted me in the first place. My husband ordered a steak & chip meal and I ordered lamb shanks. The issue I had, was I only got one lamb shank. I thought my meal was over priced to only get one lamb shank. Normally I've gotten two shanks at least. In terms of taste, I had no problems, it was delicious. The staff were really quick with the meals. I'd go again. I was just dissapointed with the small serving size of my lamb shanks.

This review is for Cafe Mila, Wellington Point QLD

I've been to cafe mila a number of times with friends and family and really enjoyed the coffee there. I'd never had breakfast there though at least until a couple of weeks back. I saw the sign on my way out shopping and hadn't had breakfast and saw the menu. I was very torn between two options they had the salmon eggs benedict and german waffles. I chose the eggs benedict and it was delicious, topped with a nice decafe coffee. The place is nice and spacious which is just what I am looking for as I am currently pregnant. So mums this one is pretty kid friendly. Staff are terrific and had my brekfast to me very quickly. It is located in a small shopping centre complex but there will be no worries with parking as they have an undercover parking facility. I do want to go back to try the german waffles as my family have some german heritage and I do love german stuff. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting a quick and delicious breakfast. I could have stayed at this place all morning it was great and very relaxing.

This review is for The Lighthouse Restaurant, Cleveland QLD

Thoroughly enjoyed this venue, I've been here nearly half a dozen times. My last time just a little while ago, I chose the Seafood Rissotto, wow!!! this is great. The meal is decorated with seafood in the shape of a dragonfly. It would have been perfect with wine, but I'm currently pregnant so no going there. View is amazing and sells this place 1000 times over, you won't find a better view in the Redlands. The price from memory was just under 30 bucks, which was also good I thought. Parking was ok, no issue there. Staff bend over backwards for you, very nice. Will go there another 1000 times if my husband will agreed to it. 5 Stars and well earnt at that.

This review is for Stones On The Main, Wellington Point QLD

verified email - 22 Sep 2013

I've been to Stones once before and didn't really like. I was recently invited back again for a girlfriends birthday dinner. I wasn't fussed the first time and this time again, whilst a little bit better, I just didn't really enjoy it. I would prefer full table service when I go to dinner so a venue that encourages you to make your own meal, just doesn't click with me. The staff do try and make it special for you and it's a nice venue as such, but I just can't get into it. I don't think I could go back again, but I still give it 3 stars for the venue and staff. The food is of good quality that they give you, it's just the fact you have to cook it. Parking is terrible, it's too busy. I can't justify the cost vs me having to make it.

This review is for Little Greek Taverna, West End QLD

I was invited here for a B'day dinner. The atmosphere was good and staff were friendly. Our group had the banquet option. I think from memory it was about $30 per head. Not bad, but then the food came out. The food itself tasted fantastic, but it was just like eating samples of food. I went away from this place feeling very hungry which shouldn't happen at a "Banquet". Maybe I ordered wrong, I don't know.
