I love this place - it's like a little piece of paradise. The website says it's "a treasure-filled, eclectic mix of arts and crafts" but it's more than that. It's like stepping into another country. They also have a bridal registry. Don't just take my word for it - check out the website first.

Amazing work! This guy is fantastic, I can't praise him enough. My daughter put a big hole in my new Country Road pure wool cardigan - this guy fixed it and only charged me $12.00! Unbelievable! My daughter also needed her leather skirt shortened and he did an amazing job. We are both very impressed!

I LOVE this place, particularly the manicures and massages. Great hairdresser too. Lovely atmosphere, the girls are all friendly and they give you coffee. GREAT!

Have just discovered this place through my daughter. I was looking for a language class and couldn't find any out my way. The prices are very reasonable and they offer a great selection of classes.

Great selection of garden and building supplies - tanks, garden furniture, and of course plants. I found everything I wanted to revamp my garden and spent a good part of my stimulus payment here.

Fawlty towers-like experience. Sub standard food and service led to this very disappointing experience. Our platter of charcuterie, contained bruschetta (!!). Filet mignon was overcooked and did not warrant the $38.00 pricetag. Needed to constantly ask for our water to be topped up. The waitress's or owner's children sitting behind us (can't she afford a babysitter?) playing drums on the table did nothing for the ambiance. Bright lighting and outdated decor. And to top it all off, our dessert failed to materialise. They forgot it! And discussing how this issue was going to be taken up with kitchen staff in front of customers is not a good look. I am surprised this restaurant is still in business.

Approximate cost: $40.00

Excellent experience. Having an accident is never enjoyable but Sheen made it totally stress free and lifted the inconvenience of having my car off the road while it was being repaired. I have nothing but praise.
