Great dealership, great staff, very clear and quick. I bought a Navara D22 and I inquired, dealt and purchased in 3 days. Very satisfactory

Came here one morning quite early for breakfast very surprised of what i found: an incredibly good breakfast with eggs perfectly cooked with runny yolk, bacon, backed beans, ash brown, fried bread and the most amazing black pudding made by an Irish butcher up in the mountain. Oh, i forgot about the fresh juice of watermelon and mango....veeeeeeery nice. Recommended

Approximate cost: $10-20

When you go in seafood restaurant on the beach overlooking the ocean, with the most beautiful sea breeze and the smell of salt, you will imagine to have one of the freshest and most tasty fish you had i a while. What I found in this cafè is best described as a Ferrari with the engine of a Fiat 500. All the fish was frozen, a selection of barramundi, basa, john dori and lemon sole had a terrible look. I decided to give it a try anyway and get the barramundi battered with chips. The batter was biscuity (way too much flour) the fish was bland and tasteless and chips were the worst. For a $18 bill with a small water it was a let down.

Approximate cost: $15-20

I use to be one of their best customers when they first open. Been there dozens of times and brought all numbers of friend. Then, unfortunately, they decided to expand, open new shops and move the chef and manager to William street (i believe), and that`s when the things started to go bad. The first time, after the change, the service was slow and inattentive, meats lost quality and seasoning and the chicken was medium rare (not once, not twice but three times), shortages of wines that never happened before and so on.
But after being so many times I Gave them the benefit of the doubt and I went back for one last time...........It was worst then ever.
R.I.P Churrasco at Coogee, thanks for all the good memories you gave me.

Approximate cost: $35

This steakhouse is better then most for 2 reasons: first, the quality of the beef is superior then other restaurant on the same price level: second, they always seem to get you steak cooked right. Although one time i got a stinky mashed potato that was promptly taken off the bill.

This review is for Hurricane's Grill, Sydney NSW

I tried both Hurricane`s restaurant (Bondi and Darling Harbour) and i`m not quite satisfied to be honest. Yes they have decent steaks, ribs and burger but are not outstanding. There are so many places better then that. All the times that i`ve been there my steaks were overcooked and way too much basting. It almost make disappear the taste of the beef (witch for the price I expected much more). And considering that every time it needed 1 hour wait to be seated, I`ll never go back again.

I know how hard is to find a good and honest mechanic nowadays, this way I recommend this guys. I have been in for a major repair on my 4WD and after a quick check they actually suggested that it wasn`t worth fixing it. It may sound easy to say, but most mechanic would have taken the money for the repair and left me with a bill bigger then the value of the vehicle. They preferred not to take the money and be honest with me. This is a good quality not always easy to find in mechanics.

Chicken and Avocado wrap, fresh ingredients but missing avocado and too much dressing soaked the wrap....nachos without meat very small portion for the price.....nachos were too greasy and dips were tasteless. Service was polite and fast although we were the only customers.

Approximate cost: $10-20

This review is for Maroubra Fish Market, Maroubra NSW

This is definitely not a place to go for the cooked food, everything is pre made and not tat fresh.........but the fresh fish is very excellent. If you are a seafood lover, head first to the whole fish section where everything is not more then 2 days old. If you`re in the area and fancy a seafood bbq at home, it`s worth a visit.

Very good and tasty food. There is a lot of choice on the menu that caters for every taste, from the indian classics to the modern fusion. Price is right but not good choices for wines ( but after all indians are not famous for wines). Thumbs up

Approximate cost: $20-30
