I went there late for dinner after a mix up at another restaurant. and was really glad I did. They have a good range of tapas and the calamari and prawns were delicious. It had a good atmosphere and I really liked the decor. I'll definitely be going back.

Amazing! I went with a voucher as I love love love seafood and I'm so glad I did. I went with my partner and between us we had chicken, steak, flathead, lobster tail, creme brulee and sorbet. The chicken and steak were perfectly cooked and juicy, and the seafood was fantastic. We also had a bottle of a really lovely chardonnay and finished with complimentary irish cream shots and biscuits. The service was also incredible; I felt like royalty. I will definitely be going back!

This is the worst Asian food I've ever had. A friend recommended it and we went there in a big group. For starters there was no alcohol or BYO which was very disappointing. The menu wasn't very exciting but I ordered a Thai fried rice because I always enjoy that, and some steamed dumplings. The dumplings were okay (not great) but the bottle the waitress pointed to when we asked for soy sauce turned out to be vinegar and ruined our dumplings. Another waitress brought a bottle of soy sauce to the table when we'd all finished eating and said "someone stole it". Bit late now! The fried rice was the worst I've ever eaten. All I could taste was lemongrass and could barely find any chicken. Other people I was with ordered a variety of dishes and no one enjoyed their meal. A few of us then drove 15 minutes to Camberwell in order to get dessert as we were still hungry from not eating our dinner. As the saying goes, nothing is fast, cheap and good. This place is the first two, but certainly not the latter. We will definitely not be returning!

I've been twice now and both times regretted it. The first time my meal was almost inedible due to the enormous amount of chilli. I can handle a little bit of chilli but that was ridiculous. We were then informed that we couldn't pay by cash and I had to ask my friend to pay on card. The second time I went for coffee and dessert with friends. I didn't order dessert because they didn't have a very good selection, but my friend ordered the chocolate mousse and it was a very small serve and tasted like packet mix. My hot chocolate was good but very small, and one of my friend's didn't like her coffee at all. By the time we left it had become a running joke and we were joking about making of list of everything that was wrong with the restaurant.

I went for for lunch with a group and it was lovely. The room a bright and pretty, and the view over the bay is amazing. The food was very good, with beautiful presentation. It was expensive but worth it. Between us we had the fish and chips, the lamb, the spaghetti with scallops, and the barramundi fillet. The fish and chips and the lamb in particular were delicious. The side order of bread was possibly the best bread I've ever eaten.

I quite like Merchant's Guild as it's new and trendy. It's always busy and can be hard to get a table. The food is good although they try a bit too hard to make it unique and edgy.

I went there a couple of weeks ago and had a colour change. I quite like the colour although it's not exactly what I asked for, but the blow wave really wasn't very good and I had to fix it.

This review is for Elefant Lounge Cafe, Sandringham VIC

I go to Elefant Lounge regularly as they have great coffee and the best pancakes I've ever eaten. I used to go every week but had to cut back to fortnightly due to the cost and the calories. The eggs are good also.

This review is for Beauty On Burke, Camberwell VIC

I have been going to Beauty on Burke for years and I love it. I mainly just get my eyebrows waxed, and Olivia (the owner) does the best eyebrow waxes I've ever had. The girls are so nice and friendly. It's a beautiful salon with a really pleasant atmosphere as well. The only issue I have is that it's quite expensive and I'm not really able to get any other treatments here, although I wish I could.

This review is for Buff Beauty And Massage, Middle Park VIC

I first started going to Buff Beauty and Massage a few months ago when they put a spray tan offer on one of the daily deals sites. Now I don't go anywhere else for my spray tans! They're fantastic value and Jodi is so friendly. The spray tans themselves are a really natural colour and look fantastic. Love this place!
