The food here was really delicious and there was plenty of it. A good variety on the menu with reasonable prices.
The place was clean and well presented.

What let it down was the service. You had to line up and order, which I hate, but there was quite queue at times and only one person working the till. Anyway, they let me run a tab if I left my credit card which I was happy to do because we were planning to stay and eat and drink for a while.
After ordering, we waited about 15 min for our food which was cool but our entree bread arrived 3/4 of the way through the meal. The waiter struggled with English but we muddled through. At the end of the meal, my daughters had lots left so we asked could we take the rest home and the waiter brought out two plastic containers for us to fill ourselves!

I would come here again because the food was lovely but I'd like better service for a meal/drinks for three that cost me $100.

I visit here once a year with my nephews and it has gone down., especially in atmosphere. Food was good - good size portions and a nice range on the menu. Reasonably priced for what you get. Our waitress was helpful but seemed to have too many tables to look after.
We didn't get peanuts and there was no line dancing.

Approximate cost: $25

Let you tell you Paradise Landscaping story. (I will happily change this comments and rating if I somehow (miraculously) get some action after this post).

I live next to a Housing Commission house that Paradise was doing some tree removal. Admittedly, the tree in question was huge. In the midst of removing the tree, which bordered my property, large logs were dropped on my hedge bordering the property, leaving several large holes and broken young trees. I know this was an accident but I took several photos of the damage and of the cut logs still lying in my driveway. Good thing I did. This happened in March.

I have rung the Paradise office at least twice a month (with the exception of January when I was on hols). Each time I called I was spoken to very politely by a range of different people, promising that they would be around to plug the holes (with plants!) and trim the (by now) overgrown hedge.

I believe visits were made to inspect the damage but no follow-up was ever done despite me ringing them to ask about the issue. Also I believe it was the manager who came in November without telling me he was coming and left a message with my kids. I rang the office again and am still waiting.

I'm not after any compenstaion for the damage. My hedge is no longer recognisable as a hedge and it's now been 10 WHOLE months since the original incident. All I want is some replacement plants, the hedge trimmed and the mess cleared. The whole thing should cost them no more than $50 plants and labour altogether.

There is ready access to the damage so I don't even need to be there. What are these guys waiting for?

My next port of call will be the Small Claims Court which I definitely don't want to do but am getting nowhere playing the nice guy.

If you contract these guys, get everything in writng. There's no reason why I've been so neglected except they just don't care about the small person.

You've now been warned.

Had a counter lunch on a weekday so the place wasn't busy. Touted as a traditional English pub and the food on the menu bore that out. Young fellas behind the bar were courteous though not particularly welcoming. My companion and I both had very average lemon, lime and bitters.
Female manager was wandering through growling loudly about glasses, etc, a few times.
Food was genuinely British as were the condiments.
No great big deal. Been in better, been in worse.

Approximate cost: $18

Fantastic FRESH food cooked in front of you. The pumpkin curry was wonderful. The service is friendly and efficient and prices pretty average for what you get. There is a loyalty program where you can earn free food after so many visits. Nice clean shop.

Approximate cost: $12

On holidays I visited this salon after reading the recommendations on womow and I wasn't disappointed. I had a pedicure, a facial, brow shape, brow tint, eyelash tint and bikini line. The pedicure was the first one I'd ever had.
MJ (my beautician) was very friendly and professional and friendly and gave me some good advice.
Clean, well set out salon with modern equipment.
Price pretty average for the services received.
I will definitely be back.

This is authentic Indian food. Expensive but great. I spent almost $100 on takeaway for 4 people. Service is good in the takeaway section but not sure about the actual restuarant. HAve only heard good things from others.
They use eco-friendly packaging and utensils.

Approximate cost: $25

The owner/operator, Wayne, has been our handyman for over 13 years. His work is very professional and good value.
He does a wide range of jobs around the house, excluding electrical work.
We are very pleased mainly because Wayne charges only for what he does and cleans up afterwards. He arrives when he says he will and provides an excellent quality of work.
He also gets on with all types of animals so they are stressed when a stranger is on the property.

Outstanding setting and clean pools. Change areas are clean. The girl behind the counter is helpful.
The pool also offers club swimming and water areobics, etc.
They are a little cheeky charging club swimmers entry fee when the club has booked and paid for lanes...
Very relaxing (non-smoking) venue.
