I first went there to use a gift voucher I got for my birthday last year. My friends raves abt this place. Ive been back a few times since for my monthly waxing/tinting and usually take up the specials packs they have. Pretty reasonable prices for the area and you can tell its a popular local salon. They seem to always be really busy every time I'm there. What impresses me the most is the customer service. I'm pretty picky when it comes to customer service but the staff here are very impressive - really like there team. Clean and heaps of gift ideas. Would recommend. Keep it up girls!

This review is for Fallon Solutions, Mansfield QLD

I use Fallon for all my plumbing. I really like their pricing structure which is fixed for an outcall which includes the first 15 mins, and then they charge by 15 min blocks plus materials. It's not cheap, but there is certainty on how much I pay and I find their contractors to know what they are doing. They also can be booked easily and show up on time... Can't ask for more than that from a tradie!

This review is for Aspley Day & Night Pharmacy, Aspley QLD

Always friendly and quick service. Last week I had to pick up a prescription and they didn't have it in stock. I needed it that day as I was flying out the following day. The pharmacist actually called another pharmacy and asked them to hold it for me. Very impressed - went beyond what they needed to do. Thank you for your help!

This review is for Thai Kitchen Restaurant, Wilston QLD

Went there for the first time last Friday with 4 other friends. Clean compact restaurant that was very busy. It took a while before the waitress could take our order cos it was so busy but she was really nice so that's ok. I ordered the spring rolls and pad Thai and it arrived pretty quick. Very fragrant and delicious but a little oily. Price is ok for the area but very impressed with the service. Lovely staff. Will go again.

This review is for Max Brenner Chocolate Bar, Hamilton QLD

Love the drip chai latte - it is the size of two normal chai lattes and I always order this when I catch up with friends here. I think some people will find it a bit too sweet. The little chocolate shop inside always has a few goodies and gift ideas and in like the atmosphere inside - dark and cosy. I notice they don't clean the tables very promptly though even when there are not many tables left. Would recommend.

This review is for Byblos, Hamilton QLD

I love this place. Go there all the time for a more formal night out, especially to catch up with the girls. Great atmosphere and right on the river with nice views. It's quite expensive but I guess you get what you pay for! My fav is getting a lychee daquari and sit at a table near the water... Fabulous!

This review is for Hog's Breath Cafe, Aspley QLD

For a place that advertises as the best steak in brisbane it's pretty disappointing. I have given them a go several times and each time the steak is dry and lacking flavour. They totally rely upon the sauce to try and save the steak, lucky the sauce is good. Quite expensive for what you get. Dessert portions are generous though. I like the sticky date pudding.

This review is for Fasta Pasta, Aspley QLD

I love going here when I get the shop a docket for buy one get one free ;), otherwise it's a bit expensive for pasta. The staff here are really nice here, I was once late to pick up a takeaway and they were all good about it. Nice casual atmosphere when dining in. You need to order from the counter though and get your own cutlery but I think that's ok for this type of place.

This review is for Sushi Train, Aspley QLD

verified email - 10 May 2014

This place is really busy.... So on a weekend u should get in early! Or be prepared to wait for 15 mins or so! The sushi tastes nice but I don't think it authentic... Lots of fried food like chips I don't know if they call that sushi in japan! Anyway, I really like this place as the concept of a 'train' to pic your food is quite fun. My bf and I go here all the time.
