Getting my UFC fix from here.
To be honest I'm not too sure if there are other services which offer great value, but for now I'm pretty happy with these guys.

Works out cheaper than picking up issues from your local agency, so at least I know I'm saving some chichings.

Great range of products.
Store looks neat and well shelved as well.
Regarding their price, I noticed quite a few of them being offered at a discounted price, not too sure if all of them offer 'great discount'. Retailers have noticed that a product with 'x amount discount' is likely to draw people in.

Of course, some of the products seem to be offered with a genuine discount, no dispute there. I'd still whoop out my smartphone and compare prices before any purchases.

Had a lunch special here, did cost me more than what lunch specials usually cost, @ $14.

However the presentation was quite good, food tasted excellent. Yes I wouldn't expect 'lunch special' to be $14 normally, but when it's a prawn dish, and you get as many prawns as you'd get here, I think I'll be fine with that.

Their dessert was also great, I think it was called tricky rice with banana, I'm not sure what they're meant to taste like because it was my first time trying those, but they tasted quite good without a doubt.

I've only got great things to talk about this place.
First of all, the food was quite quality, great ingredients, generous proportion too.

Price is also reasonable, for the food and the service you get I believe the place offers great value.

Friendly staff also made an impression. We did visit during the slower hours, but no doubt the service was above average.

I'd recommend this place for sure.

Okay I remember eating from here earlier this year. It has been awhile but I do remember having a decent food, reasonable value, and a bad service.

Lady who seemed like the manager, wasn't all that nice esp for a manager. I was further surprised with the way she handled her crew.

However their deals were quite tasty, seemed quite fresh too. You could tell that the food gets prepared as you order. So that was a plus.

I would have gone back for more business if it weren't for the service I've experienced.

This review is for Bonfire Brazilian Grill, Beverly Hills NSW

I'll confirm other reviews.
Not so long ago I had a coupon book sent to me, one of them offered free glass of sangria for ALL you can EAT and DRINK Brazilian BBQ.

I thought to myself, all you can eat? for $29? SOLD !

Okay I did not read the 'Mon-Thursday' condition for all you can eat, so when we rocked up (sat) we didn't end up getting the all you can eat.

Anywho, service was nothing special, sure they do their job, but they seem only to care to bring out the food and do the bare minimum. (Here's when I thought, 'okay no tip')

Food did take awhile, not completely satisfied. To be fair I really didn't have an idea what to expect, never had anything Brazilian. Never the less I could tell that there were room for improvement.

We traveled a fair distance just to try this place, I would not say that we'll be doing this again.

I've been with them for a very long time, since they started the business, back when they were called 'email cash'.

Compared to the early stages of the business, there are more opportunities for points and rewards, however, comparing to their prime time, I feel that there are less and less opportunities for points to be earned.

Never the less, next best thing to free money. I did cash out about 120? 150? ish, but that took years and a lot of time invested.

Oh I forgot to mention that few years back they cut the interest rate of their virtual banks in half. I was pretty cut with that.

Okay the place looks nice, staff are quite friendly most of the times. Drinks aren't the most affordable or competitive, but considering the kind of establishment it is, it's not unheard of.

Business, in my opinion runs quite nicely, but likes someone else has mentioned before, a lot of people come here just to show off, at least that's the feeling I get. I'm sure it's not the management's fault, but never the less it is having an impact on my overall experience.

This review is for Botany Chinese Take Away, North Willoughby NSW

Boy, Just had some take away from this place.
Great value, decent quality of food.

You can watch your food being cooked, I guess that's a plus if it matters for you.

Truly great value compared to other Chinese cousin around the area.

Have yet to try lunch special, but @ $7.50, I know I'm going to try them. Most meals are under $11, prawn dishes and such are a bit higher.

I'll most definitely recommend this place for their great value.
