Heard that Grumpys have really good pizzas so we went to check it out. I was so suprised the pizzas are gourmet and so delicous, better than we expected. The spicy chicken was so tasty and I loved the italian job. I will definately be going back, best pizza I have had in a while. Highly recommend.

Went to Outback Jacks for the first time for a family birthday. Its a great set up, family friendly, great for parents to enjoy their meals while the kids play in the kids room. The kids room is set up with free arcade games and is a fantastic idea, wish more restaurants had this.

I ordered the Neptune Steak with fries. The bernaise sauce was really good although the meat was ok nothing special. All our fries were cold and the mash potate was cold too. Im guessing they platted up the plates and then waited for the steaks. I informed them that I could not eat cold chips and they brought out a new bowl of hot chips which was great. The chips were hot but they were average. The bernaise sauce, avocado and praws were delicious. For a speciality steak house I expected the meat to melt in my mouth. I have to say that I prefer Hogsbreath cafe, the steaks are better and tastier and their curly fries have flavour. It was great to get 25% discount with the entertainment voucher otherwise it would have been overpriced for the quality. Birthday boy received free icecream which was a wonderful suprise. We all thought meals were average and unfortunately will not go back. If you want a good steak to The Lion or Hogsbreath.

the quality of the food at the Lion is fantastic, I have been there a few times and have always been impressed with the food and service. I had the best scotch fillet steak which melted in my mouth. Its a bit pricy but great discount when you use the entertainment book.

My work had their xmas function at the cellars, its a great venue for private functions. The cellars is such a great set up, with dancefloor booths and bar. The cocktail finger food was superb, you have to try their mini burgers they are sooo delicious. The function coodinator is very organised and attends to your every needs. A1 quality food.

Excellent web tool. Such a great way to keep in touch with people all over the world, even if you dont speak to people much its such a great way to keep up to date with photos and what is happening, keeps you close to your friends. Its so easy to use and a great way for business to advertise and send updates on specials. I like that you can advertise on garage sale for free, would be good to see garage sale get a bit more organised so that you can easily search for items in categories. Would be good if there is an online auction selling tool too that is free on facebook, im sure with time there will be. Its amazing how big facebook has become its everywhere. I really enjoyed the movie and the story of how it all came together.

I get the entertainment book every year fantastic value for money. This is an excellent way to go out for dinner and save money. My friends and I regularly go out and pick a place from the ent book, its such a good way to try out a new place that you wouldnt normally go to. You get to find out some good places to eat and get great savings too, which makes you want to go back. I love the buy a meal get one free. There are soo many discounts, its good to share it with family and friends too.

Great location for a restaurant. We went for a walk at Waterfull Gully to checkout the waterfalls, its such a beautiful peaceful spot. After our walk we enjoyed having lunch at Utopia. We sat outside which had wonderful views of the gardens. I had gourmet baguette for lunch omg it was the best baguette I have had. I am so looking foward to going back there on a sunny day and having lunch again and scones with tea too.

One of the best pizzas in the western suburbs. The pizza toppings are fresh and tasty, my favourite are the gourmet pizzas. Greg makes the best pizzas. The pastas are really good and the prices are good. They have done a great job of renovating the pizza bar and its nice to sit outisde on a warm night. The staff are fantastic. We enjoy to get their takeaway pizzas when we have a movie night and our friends really enjoy them too.

Best Indian Restaurant in Adelaide right up there with Jasmin, although I would now rate Jasmin as 2nd best! The service is 5 star like silver service, the staff are very friendly. The food is absolutely delicious so fresh and tasty. Best Garlic and Cheese Nann. They have some different meals on their menu that I have not seen in other indian restaurants. I love indian food and sometimes when I eat indian food it does not agree with my stomach the next day, but with Arya the food is fresh and it did not repeat on me and you cannot smell the spice when you go the loo LOL like I do when I eat Indian food from other places. Bonus that they are in the entertainment book so you get discount. I will go back there again, yummy.

I have been searching for a blonde colour stylist for some time with difficulty. I read a lot of good reviews about Toni and Guy so I decided to try them out for a hair style first as a trial before I get my hair coloured. The head stylist is fantastic, I have to stay she is the best stylist that I have been to, 5 stars. She knows how to style and gave so much volume to my hair, I walked out looking fantastic. Unfortunatley the stylist does not colour hair. Given how impressed I was with the service, knowledge and style I felt comfortable to book the hair colourist who has won awards.

I was very dissapointed with the colour and service it did not match up to the level of experience the stylist had. I was very paticular about the blonde I wanted, I brought photos of my previous colour and explained exactly what type of blonde I wanted. I made it clear that I did not want to see any of my regrowth/darkness showing through my sides as I wear my hair up. I wanted the foils to be thick so you cant see any of my natural colour underneath. The colourist reassured me that she is the blonde specialist etc. The colourist applied the colour and then I was given to a junior stylist to blow dry my hair. I was dissapointed that I did not recieve the senior stylist who orignally styled my hair and booked that appointment. The jnr stylist shoook my hair and blow dried it very rough and quickly, felt like she was ripping my hair out. My hair was not smooth and still wet so I could not see the colour at all. It was the worst blow dry I ever had. She was about to send me to checkout saying how good I looked (all lies) I was very dissapointed that the colourist did not come to see the finish product and check that I was happy. I had to ask for the colourist.

The colourist then blow dried my hair smooth so that I could see the colour. I could see in the mirror that my blonde was very faint, the foils did not cover and you could see a lot of the darkness showing through, but she told me how good it looked! I then showed the photo and asked her if the blonde was the same? You could clearly see that it was not the same, I looked like I did not have my hair freshly coloured. After pointing this out, the colourist put a toner through my hair. This did not lighten my hair enough. I was so dissapointed with the service, she did not listen to what I wanted and could not believe that if I had not mentioned anything she would not have suggested to fix it. You could still see the darkness the foils were not thick enough and if I put my hair up, my sides were not blonde at all. She then said that I was welcome to come back another day to get more foils put in (yeah right like Im going to go back and pay for more foils and damage my hair by adding more colour ontop of colour) She gave me discount, which still costed me way too much for a crappy colour and service. Really I shouldnt have paid for anything as it ws not what I had asked for. There is no way that I would go back when she could not get it right the first time and did not look at her work until I asked her to. At the time of the apt they should have explained the option to book in the senior stylist, who is realy expensive but worth it how was I to know that I would have the jnr stylist. It appears that when you are new they give you the best to get you to go back but then you get the jnr! Really dissapointed with the service, they dont listen and cant deliver. Do not recommend them for blonde colour. However the senior stylist is fantastic, recommend her for styles, if only she colour as well.
