Popped into this store in the hope that it may have improved and with my party tried a vrariety of things from the menu to cover the experience.
All were quite tasty which was refreshing, ordering a prawn and crab salad, chicken lasagne and the quattro pizza which has 4 quarters with different flavours it was pleasantly surprising.
Not only that but taking 2 toddlers ( who are hard to keep amused) they are given dough to make something with that is then cooked so they can take it home ( what a cheap but effective idea)
I find it very echoey in this restaurant which pulls away from any atmosphere or ambience. But it seems to have picked it's socks up since my last visit which is encouraging

I wish I was closer to a fruit and vege shop like this.
Harris Farm just has everything, beautiful flowers,beautiful meat and tasty fruit and vege.
Staff are efficient in keeping displays looking good and serving making the experience of such a mundane chore enjoyable.

Cant speak highly enough of the $$$ , staff and service provided from this cafe.
Best priced milkshakes around, great all day breakfast, foccacia, chicken schnitzel,hot chips.... what ever you're feeling like at the time.
I have been going here for at least 16years and can't thank them enough for their consistency.

Grrrrr ..... Really disappointed at treatment by wait staff after having tried to contact this restaurant to make a booking for 11.30am on a Sunday for a table of 9 ( pretty big business)
Being they dont open until 11.30 there is an answering machine on which a message was left to assist with their bookings.
Family arrived first and were treated fabulously by lady serving them organising tables only to have another staff member come to give a lecture on the necessity of booking for large groups.
The whole time our 'group ' was there the restaurant was no where near capacity with ample seating.
Upon speaking to this staff member and explaining we had made the effort to make a booking it was then clarified they had misheard the name and from there just excuses on how hard it is when large groups turn up and the pressure it puts them under.... and I reitterate there was at least 30 tables available the whole time were were there approx and hour and a half....
Really disappointed at the unprofessionalism shown bringing the team down at this restaurant... not returning in a hurry

This review is for Oregano Pizzeria, Rooty Hill NSW

Went to this Fantastic restaurant last Saturday with family and cannot speak highly enough of the staff and waitress attending to us.
We were accomodated immediately with tables put together by chef for our party of 6 and food was both tasty and super fast.
Kids were pampered by waitress who made everyone welcome and comfortable.
Love this restaurant because it is out of the way and has old fashioned service and charm to it...
Highly recommend a visit

Approximate cost: $15.00

Where do I begin ...... I am an understanding person when it comes to christmas and the stress delivery systems are under ...however.... when I am given a consignment number to track my parcel, am told that it is sitting at the delivery depot , call to ask if i can personally pick it up as I have done numerous times before am told i'll be called back .... patiently wait 3 and a half hours , call back .... wait 12 minutes after transfer.....no answer..... call again 7 minutes no answer ...... call again 5 minute wait and explain to telephone personel to please listen before transferring me again and funnily enough once listening to my predicament I am told there is no way I have any chance of getting my parcels tonight.... WHY not tell a customer in the first phone call !!!! how hard is it to stop wasting peoples time !!!!
What's worse is the company i work for only use this service which has gone downhill this xmas as opposed to last

On a good note the drivers are an absolute asset to the company maybe the company should get some tips......

Highly recommend this dating site ..... Why ??? Because I have been happily married for 6 years and together for 8years to an amazing man whom I met through this site.
Working over 70 hrs a week I sstruggled to have any time to socialise and I found this site easy to use and helped me get to know a genuine person without all the crap associated with pubs clubs etc.

This review is for Zig Zag Railway, Lithgow NSW

verified email - 03 Dec 2012

We had many a great family day to The Zig Zag Railway.
Very disappointed to hear it has been unable to continue its historical service to the community as $$$ is always a factor. The location is a bit out of the way but if you dont mind a drive it's very pleasant there are great tracks behind for 4wd too so we would incorporate the 2.
But the old steamy's were so fun, imagining what it used to be like for our grandparents and such.
Definate must see if they are able to open this great business back up

This review is for Pet Porpoise Pool, Coffs Harbour NSW

We have been to Coffs at least three times now for family holidays and the PPP is one of our must see attractions.
It's great to see what has and hasn't changed , how down to earth the staff are and what a fantastic experience they make for tourists of all ages and nationalities.
Mum was kissed by a seal , we got to pat a dolphin making a great photo opportunity.
Reasonably priced for what it must cost to maintain such a facility.
And i find it's nice to get away from the bigger well known parks and support local

This review is for Jimmy's Steak House, Emu Plains NSW

We have had a few family dinners here mainly because we love the meals, however it can get quite costly with a wine here an entree there a main , dessert ... it all adds up.
Little bit awkward when pre booking a table with a high chair to be put in the middle of the restaurant made me feel quite uncomfortable and in the way being we also had a stroller.
But staff were friendly enough food took a bit long however it was a busy evening.
Would return
