If you're after a 'quick fix' this is not the place to go. Very understaffed, you are frequently left waiting in excess of 10 minutes for a coffee that lacks the 'wow' factor. Add to that the price of the coffee and an extra charge for almost any variation (decaf, soy etc.), you end up with a super long wait, a lukewarm, average coffee and pretty cold service from the staff. After bearing with this for some time, I've decided to throw in the towel and take my business elsewhere. Not having eaten here before I can't comment on the food, however the prices again don't look very appealing for the selection. Personally, I would rather save my pennies for the food court.

Went here for a dinner with the family and another couple. The place was quite empty (only one other couple inside). Very fancy inside with a upper-class restaurant spread. Quite an extensive menu however MUCH pricier than your regular Vietnamese place. As an example, paid $7.80 for TWO cold rolls.... yep a whole 2! A salt and pepper squid will set you back $19.80 same with the honey king prawns or steamed scallops with xo sauce (1/2 dozen). Mum had been hanging out all day for the soft shelled crab so you can imagine her disappointment when upon ordering the dish we were told that it was not available that night....I could see the tears forming in the corner of her eye. With much despair she ordered the sizzling Mongolian duck but her heart just wasn't in it. The second blow came when the wine we ordered was...yep you guessed it, also not available. Strike 2.
So, all in all, pricey place lacking some of the advertised dishes. Well presented, nice and quick service however won't be back anytime soon.

The best physio EVER - I've been going to Marion for years now and she has saved me from injury so many times I can't count them anymore. Before meeting Marion I would go to the 'best' sports physio's in Adelaide (Sportsmed/Wakefield sports institute) etc. and was only treated like another product on a conveyer belt - in the door, a quick check and out the other side; trying to squeeze me in for the rushed 15 minute appointments. Not with Marion! She is amazing! She takes her time to look at your wholesomely, her appointments are half an hour and if you need longer she ensures she completes her treatments. She treats you in your 'entirety' - her forte being dry needling which is absolutely amazing. I have recommended numerous people to go see her and they've all come out better if not healed. Would definitely recommend Marion - I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Avoiding going to the dentist like the plague, I would only ever book emergency appointments wherever they were possible in response to the occasional chip/pain etc. - My oral hygiene was essentially 'homeless'....that is until I came across this clinic. Having another emergency, I decided to give this place a go and have never been anywhere else since. Dr. Mitric was absolutely superb. Not only does he explain every procedure/issue ensuring that you are aware of what's going on etc. his primary concern (second to your teeth) is your comfort, ensuring that you don't ever feel a thing. Being a perfectionist, he takes his time and never leaves a job half done. If I've ever had to return with an ongoing issue, he is very fair with payment etc. and as a bonus the dental nurses are absolutely lovely. DEFINATELY recommend this clinic - I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Another one of those shopping centre massage joints similar to We Massage. Offers the usual (head, neck, back, leg, whole body, reflexology etc.) Price ends up equating to about $1 per minute so a 40 minute massage will set you back $40. A lot of these places are VERY hit and miss - if you get an older or more experienced masseur you'll probably get value for money, however the younger high school kids that are supplementing their school fees will usually leave much to be desired... the massage feeling like a mild breeze blowing on your back. That being said, this is definitely one of the 'better' ones. I've been here some 10 times and I've come out feeling rejuvenated after most. Would recommend it for those who don't have the time/finances to book with a professional.

Approximate cost: $30

I came here to have a browse at the menu and take a walk through the organic store attached to the back of the front café area. After a perusal of the overpriced menu, decided to stick with a coffee. Ordered the largest take away decaf latte, requesting it to be extra hot. After a 15 minute wait I was served with a medium sized lukewarm coffee. Having paid an exorbitant $6.50 I was sure that I was going to get the largest size I ordered: I had already conceded defeat by paying so much. After telling the barrister I ordered the largest size, he said that I hadn't and the largest size was actually an extra dollar....$7.50 for a coffee????? In any event, he made me the next size up without requesting the difference... kind of expected considering that the order was incorrectly made.
The second one wasn't any hotter but not worth the complaint. As with most organic stores, the produce in the store was over priced and the 'clearance' sections was far from clearance priced. Don't think I'll be coming back to this one.

Came here to have a browse - checked out the menu and decided I would just stick with a coffee...much too pricey but I guess that what to expect from an organic joint. I ordered a 'teecino' soy latte - a kind of organic coffee replacement. It was lovely but again pricey. The coffee size was quite small, wish they would do a nice jumbo or large take away. All in all, very happy with the taste, not necessarily size and price. They also have the 'organic' selection of sweeteners (stevia/agave) etc. It was nice to have a tasty 'latte' and have a browse around the store at the products they serve - mind you it was only window shopping. I would have loved to grab bag fulls of stuff...maybe when I win the lotto :)

Approximate cost: $20

Called to order some take away from here. Asked for some cold rolls and was surprised to be charged $6 for 2 small rolls filled with more lettuce than any other filling. When I walked in to pick them I was met with pretty poor service: no smile, no hello, just told the price, processed and pretty much shown the door. The inside had a bit of a dark and 'dank' feel to it - not the most inviting place. Having a look at the menu, the prices seem much higher than other local Asian food joints. If you're after some tasty Vietnamese, head to LB Vietnamese just a few streets away instead.

Approximate cost: $15

One of those secret little local gems that is not advertised anywhere but is absolutely superb value and service. Not really an 'eat in' place, this is more of a 'deli' that also does take away Vietnamese, Chinese and Thai for superb prices. I religiously buy my cold rolls from here that are absolutely mouth watering. There is also a vast range of take away options with prices that are more than fair! Menu items include a vast variety of soups (eg. Crab meat corn, Hot and sour, Tom yum etc. for a measly $4.50!). Chicken dishes (eg. chicken cashew nut, Szechuan chicken, Thai Sweet chicken etc.) are a maximum cost of $9! The maximum you'll pay for King Prawn dishes is $10.50! They also do variety pack specials for example a $17 snack pack that includes a soup of your choice, a small fried rice, a sweet and sour pork or beef with black bean sauce and prawn chips. Being a deli they also sell scratchies and the lotto as well as a selection of drinks/chips and newspapers/magazines. A really great take away joint... I had some hesitations in sharing it because it's such a great hidden gem. The owners are lovely and always share a smile. Definitely recommend this one!

This is another business that pecialises in American, English and New-Zealand's confectionery. Quite a small shop with a bunch of confectionary goods packed in a pretty tight space. There is quite a selection, but nothing that compares to Blackebys Sweets in Adelaide or Tea Tree Plaza. With any import sweet stores I expect to pay a bit more compared to confectionary in a general grocery store however I was quite disappointed to find that the prices here are significantly more expensive than a lot of other import sweet stores. Instead of paying $3 for the Extra Dessert Delight gum, this store charges $4.95. Similarly, for a tiny sachet of Kool-Aid, I was charged $2!! Good selection but disappointing price. I'll save my pennies for the TTP store I think. Worth a look but not if you're strapped for cash.
