This review is for Ashmore Road Seafood & Steakhouse, Ashmore QLD

We've been eating there for many years now and just love how huge the place is. The meals are also in big portions so you can share. They separate an area for families with kids so we don't have to worry about the kids being a bother to other customers as much. They also give you free garlic bread which keep the kids happy until the food arrives.

This review is for Pizza Deli, Robina QLD

The pizzas are not like generic pizzas you get at big chains, they have an interesting variety of pizzas that actually taste great and fresh, we think the price is a bit expensive but they have lunch deals (pasta or pizza) which are more affordable.

This review is for MEDCALL, Southport QLD

We use Medcall regularly as the kids tend to get sick at late hours or over the weekends when the GP is closed. Medcall is reliable and comes to your home so you don't have to worry about sitting in the hospital waiting room full of people or having to drive out to those 24 hours medical centres. They usually give preference to babies and kids so we never had to wait too long, plus the kids are more comfortable waiting in their own home. They also bulk bill so that's one less thing to worry about. Very good service!

This review is for Col Dines Hair Salons, Nerang QLD

It's hard to find anywhere to get a hair cut for less than $20 nowadays and Lyn Dines hair salons are still so affordable! Last time I went it was still only $11 (I think now it's $15) but that's still fantastic value. I usually get a simple cut but I know they also do most of the other things hair salons do at very good prices. The ladies are accommodating and will listen to what you want to get done.

This review is for Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Currumbin QLD

We took our kids there with the special discount (adult for kids prices) and they had a great time there. They loved the kangaroo petting / feeding, and I think they might've overfed some of the kangaroos! There is also a lovely playground for little ones to run around and climb. Not great choices for food but you can just bring your own lunch and picnic there.

This review is for Pets Planet, Robina QLD

We bought our son's first pet there, a pair of mice, the staff was friendly and explained what we would need and gave us fact sheets to help care for them. The lady also happened to be the breeder so she knew a great deal about them. Not much more variety with other pets as it's a small store, but are conveniently located inside the shopping centre.

This review is for Taboon Modern Middle Eastern Cafe, Robina QLD

verified email - 19 Feb 2010

We had dined there for both lunch and dinner and must say the food there is fantastic! For lunch they have some very nice and affordable pita sandwiches/ lunch bowls and for dinner a very tempting menu of a good range of middle eastern foods. Everything we ordered were delicious, and the atmosphere is nice in the evening. Price is a little higher for dinner, but you still get great quality you surely won't be disappointed.

This review is for Anand Sagar Indian Restaurant, Nerang QLD

We've been getting take away regularly from Anand Sagar for sometime now and have found that their curries are truly very authentic and delicious. They also have a good range to choose from, we've tried most of the curries and they are all very good. Price is average but it's good value considering the quality.

This review is for Lockhart Auto Centre, Southport QLD

verified email - 19 Feb 2010

We bought our first used car there, after going around to different dealers (some quite pushy and fishy), we found that Lockhart gave us the best deal and listened to our concerns the most. They were friendly (but not scary pushy or intimidating), and genuinely tried to help us find something suitable. The sales manager was even willing to sit down and let us negotiate a good deal off the price, we had the car checked by a reliable mechanic of our own, and it was indeed a good used car. They even delivered it to our door for free and gave us a lovely gift box full of chocolates, a bottle of champange and glasses!

This review is for Winshop Internet, Varsity Lakes QLD

verified email - 19 Feb 2010

After having much difficulties and problems with BigPond Internet, we switched to a smaller local internet service provider, Winshop. We are so surprised by the level of service we got compared to the big companies like BigPond! You never have to wait on the phone to speak with someone, and you always get someone (like the owner) who really knows what they are talking about (as opposed to random call centre people). They even helped us when we had trouble with other things (eg. phone line) and helped set up our new laptop to the internet. The staff are so polite and patient, we are so impressed by their service we'll never go back to using big companies again.
