This review is for Sing's Asian Kitchen, Coorparoo QLD

verified email - 18 Aug 2015

I'm a fussy Asian food eater. I like to think I know my flavours. Tried for the first time on Sun night. Absolutely everything impressed me. From the well organised service to the very reasonable prices. Not to mention the full of meat and veg flavoursome meals. I can't wait to go back. They have a restaurant too. There were heaps of locals picking up and ordering. A busy place. Totally recommend.

Approximate cost: $11.9

For a one night stay, this place was really clean, tidy and comfortable. My friend actually booked it and I think she got an online voucher deal. Our room was modern and convenient. Location was excellent. Right in the heart of Brisbane City. Reception were attentive and friendly.

Went for a few drinks. The place is very dark. The service was reluctant and grumpy. The band was excellent. Drink prices are a little on the high side. A great place to go but their service is terrible.

Wow, what a gem. I rarely go out in the city so we just stumbled upon this place. I had the Mushroom Risotto and it was amazing. Best I've ever had. So creamy and full of mushrooms. So flavoursome. There service was excellent. My friend loved her meal also. What a great find.

Wow. There was about 15 of us booked here at the last minute as our original restaurant denied all knowledge of our booking! They accommodated us upstairs. There was plenty of room and no-one was squashed. We all ordered the banquet for $28 and what a meal! Starting out with large wontons, stuffed chicken wings and another option as first course, then not-so-fried rice (delicious!), then two more main course meals after that. Chicken, fish, beef, squid. It was all so delicious and flavoursome. I truly recommend this place. Go hungry! On top of all this, it is BYO! Bonus! Definitely recommend. Oh and the service was excellent. Fast and they catered for all our bottles of wine. We were never waiting too long

This review is for Fish On Fire, Cleveland QLD

Was staying in Cleveland for the weekend and had to get some dinner that night. Went down to the township and there was this fish n chip shop packed with people in the restaurant, waiting to order and there to pickup takeaway. I ordered a fish meal which included a choice of salad, chips and snapper for $17.90. I had the option of having it grilled. They had about 15 staff on. They were extremely busy yet their service system was well oiled and all the staff were working hard. There was a reason why this shop has won a 2015 Award and why it seemed every local in Cleveland was buying dinner from them that night. I mean the 30min wait was worth it. I got to see at least 100 people get served and my meal was amazing. A huge piece of snapper and delicious greek salad and perfect fried chips. This is a must do if looking for somewhere to eat. Note: they don't do burgers post 5pm as they are too busy.

Work team lunch today - very quiet but the prices were good. I had the Pig and Fig pizza and a glass of Sav Blanc and it came to $19 total. Thought the guy had made a mistake but no, so very happy with that price. The pizza was basic but nice. Fast delivery for 12 people. Probably won't go back for lunch. Have been here at night and it's got real potential. Great bar and a small dance floor. Quite a young drunk crowd though. If you get in early, they have a bout six stools overlooking the frontage and it's a great spot to sit and watch the wonders and characters of 'The Valley' nightlife go by!

Very on trend right now this New York style underground hipster joint. Spirits are served in cool glasses. Great range of beer. Not such a great wine range. City prices. Friendly, personal service. Apparently they have 'lane' festivals every now and then which entail patrons being able to drink upstairs in the small lane-way. Music IS way too loud which is why I tend to leave prior to the band coming on.

This review is for Lovely Eyes by Jina, Sunnybank QLD

These lovely ladies were attentive. They were quick and efficient and I love the results. My mani and pedi purchased through Living Social for $35 total was totally worth it. Whilst I was there, other clients were getting their eyelashes done. Looks like they are as good as other reviews say they are. Well done girls. May your little business grow.

I wish I'd read all the negative online reviews prior to using this lot. Single female hoping this one time a mechanic wouldn't rip me off. Bought a $80 service, came away with repairs of $1730 on top of this cost. I wish I'd sort a second opinion. The lady at the desk is very helpful but once they get your money they are smug and condescending if you ever have any further questions. One time, the English accented man answered the phone and oh my god that man needs a lesson in 'stop talking and listen to the customer' (that is my polite way of putting it! He did not want to listen to anything I had to say just kept talking over and over on the phone and all i rang for was to ask for a copy of my invoice as I had paid over the phone and was picking up out-of-hours. He was on the defence from the get-go. Never will use them again based on this extremely rude behaviour.
