great atmosphere - and thats what youre paying for! this place is the real deal american fifties diner and highly recommended over the local alternaltive of TGI Fridays up the street. some highly priced items but otherwise worth a visit especially with out of town friends. on weekend nights they have a fun interactive 'shake your tailfeather' dance with the diner waitstaff which is hilarious and amusing. no vegetarian options aside from fries but meat eaters would be more than happy here with their deluxe 'dog' and burger options. cool juxebox music where you can pick what plays and clean establishment, too.

Approximate cost: $15

every first saturday of the month they have 15% off the entire store. helpful and friendly staff - a trainee once gave me incorrect information and a manager gave me a discount off the product i was looking for because of this, very appreciated. prices are reasonable compared to other health food stores and they have a small but unique range of chilled foods that i have found hard to find elsewhere. convenient location to prahran market, chapel street and public transport.

good atmosphere at the end of acland street. a great place to finish the day in st kilda for a beer, a pub or restaurant meal. fresh, quality food, some items a little over priced but worth it for the inventive menu and drink specials. service is always prompt and accomodating. a few vegetarian options and bar specials available

This review is for The Vegie Bar, Fitzroy VIC

verified email - 26 Feb 2013

the best vegetarian, vegan, raw vegan, allergy friendly food establishments in ALL of melbourne. not always up their with their service but thats probably because they dont need to be. people who want good, fresh, cheap REAL food will come here and ignore the inattentive staff and sometimes slow ordering/wait times to get what you pay for. food packed full of flavour with an environmentally conscious edge. cheap and clean food with a menu and prices to match like no where else in the city. highly recommended for meat eaters or vegans alike.

This review is for TGI Friday's, South Yarra VIC

disappointing. just over branded, overly expensive bistro food marketed as fancy american diner experience. too loud, always too much noise and sport happening. food takes a long to come out and the portions are just overloaded with soggy fries and not too much main. plenty of better eateries in south yarra/prahran. i wouldnt reccommend this place for anything but their cheerful staff or a quick drink pre movie.

the best smoothies and juices ive found in st kilda. great combos and are accomodating to changes and dietary preferences. they have lunch time three course specials during the week in their cafe overlooking the beach, too. a great spot to get some takeaway. always friendly staff! recommended.

This review is for Luna Park Melbourne, St Kilda VIC

Meant to be a highlight or tourist attraction of st kilda and melbourne but absolutely needs improving. disgusting quality of food with no health options for children or vegetarians. expensive rides and very unseamless level of service. told to 'walk behind' my toddler as he was in a slow train ride alone even though ticketing office said that an accompaning parent was permitted on the train ride. unserviced toilet facilities and limited shaded areas to have lunch or a rest. not particularly recommended

Approximate cost: $10-150

This review is for Fitness First, St Kilda VIC

great gym with all the facilities - pool, yoga and class studio, steam room, sauna etc. the customer service was always spot on, and the classes they offered were at great times and always challenging or well directed as if you were at a private studio. hygeine and facility maintainence let them down with dirty wet areas, barely cleaned steam room and overpriced memberships if you compare it to the competition in the st kilda/balaclava area. still recommended

Approximate cost: $30 per week

This review is for Colonic Irrigation Melbourne, Armadale VIC

verified email - 26 Feb 2013

highly recommend colonic irrigation - this centre is better than most in the area but could still improve their customer service. too insensitive and personal rather than professional - a little more expensive than other places and you cant vary the temperatures like some people would desire (not applicable if youre new to this kind of therapy - only suitable for those with lots of colonic experience). always easy to get an appointment which is a bonus, is clean and they do offer herbal or caffeine irrigations which are great for heavier detoxing or from cancer or intestinal issues. highly reccomend this service if you do experience migraines, bloating, chronic illness, fatigue etc

Approximate cost: $70-120

beautiful food! i have been here a few times, their takeaway options are extensive with a gorgeous array of pannis, homemade cakes, quiches, salads, pastries, the lot! they have a highly recommended lunch platter that comes with smoked salmon, fresh bread, salads, pickles and all the accompniaments. definitely the pick of caulfield junction if youre in need of a quick quality coffee or a lunch break from the park accross the street. kosher friendly.

Approximate cost: $10-20
