Cannot comment about their dinner, however their yumcha is not that great.
Food does come out nice and hot, but it isnt the best.. i would say it is average. Chilli sauce is extremely salty and does not go well with any dimsims. Very expensive what you get and would only go if there im craving for yumcha and im not bothered to drive further away to satisfy my cravings.

One of the best sushi places i could recommend.
Have been going here for years and will always come back when i bothered to drive to the city!
Prices arent cheap or expensive but it is well worth for the quality you get. Wide variety of sushi and other Japanese dishes. Service is quite good, although it varies from different person to person. Although service isnt something that would stop me, i love this place! Highly recommend

The food here is below average. Seafood is definitely not fresh. Soft shell crab hand roll came out after a long wait (hoped it would be fresh and hot since it took awhile) and was cold, chewy and lacking in a lot of flavour.
This place is very short on staff and food and drinks take a long time. Ordered a peach ice tea and i had to ask after 10 minutes where it was. I understand the restaurant was busy at that stage... they just need to hire more staff. Prices are quite cheap, except for the soft shell crab hand roll it was $6.5 ..definitely not worth it. Would not recommend

Manmaruya is the place to go to get your Japanese fix! This place has a huge variety of japanese dishes, from sashimi to ramen although I have to say food quality has dropped and is not as nice as it used to be. Their gyoza's have a complete different tast. The prices are average, aren't ridiculously cheap or ridiculously expensive either.

One thing I can fault are the wait staff, they are friendly however they could do with some training. With customers waiting to be seated the waiters with spend their time cleaning chairs (they weren't dirty) than cleaning up about 2 other tables that were available to be seated. This place is either short on staff or need to train their staff better and do things quicker and smarter.

Now don't let that stop you from trying this place, it is definitely worth the visit!

Love love love this place! Service is always 5 stars! Food is a mix of different asian cuisines (thai, vietnamese, Chinese, Indonesian). A must order is their Barramundi and Soft shell crab! Great value for money aswell!

This review is for endota spa Martin Place, Sydney NSW

Wonderful spa, the ladies here know what they are doing and talking about. Very relaxing the moment you step out of the elevator... The only thing i could fault about Endota in general is how much they make their therapists push sales. Being a beauty therapist myself i understand most of their pay come from comission but i would never push a sale to the point where a customer feels uncomfortable. Nevertheless, i would recommend Endota and will come back in the near future!

Great place to come eat. The staff are very nice. Prices are abit expensive, but if you can eat a lot of prawns, then it's definitely worth it. Other foods are quite nice, I love their mash potato. There are a great range of hot and cold food from different countries. Usually they have Italian, Western and Chinese.

Approximate cost: $45

Came to eat here with my mother today, very disappointing experience. Food was expensive for the quality, compared to the sushi trains I've eaten at in the city. The salmon wasn't very fresh, but I don't blame them, they don't get many customers and their sushi isn't quite "Japanese".

I ordered a California roll and all it had was the crab meat and avocado. Not even the fish roe around it was there. Everything there just didn't taste japanese to me, even the soy sauce and wasabi. We also ordered scampi, and that was the dish we were waiting on.. We waited almost 15 mins and how long could it possibly take to make scampi nigiri? In the end i asked the waiter that took our order and he asked the people who make the sushi, they said that there wasn't any scampi today. Very very bad customer service, if a customer wants something and you don't have it, isn't it common sense to let them know?? Would not recommend/10!!!!

This review is for Taxis Combined, Sydney NSW

Not a service you can rely on if you want to get somewhere quick. I booked a cab for my boyfriend to get home at 7:45 so he could get to a specific station that'll take him home. His train comes at 10 past 8 and it only takes about 15 mins to get to the station, irregardless we were better safe than sorry, so we booked it earlier. We waited till about 7:55 and called up Taxis combined, they said that 2 taxis accepted the booking but they cancelled it because they " had troubles getting here" we waited until 8:40 for the cab to get here. Very very disappointing how taxis are able to accept or ignore the bookings, most drivers don't accept your booking if its under $20. I just don't understanding why they made the service run like this. In my opinion, I would not recommend. Although I would recommend silver service, they may be a bit more pricey but they are way more reliable and their cabs are much cleaner (so are the drivers).

The BEST Japenese Bbq i have been to.
This has been my favourite restaurant ever since i was a little kid! My family would always come here for special occasions, and every time, the food doesn't change, the service is the same and best of all there free parking if you request!
Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious Japanese bbq. Your experience may get a bit pricey (mine does all the time) as you find more delicious foods on the menu. Before heading in book a few hours before!
