Food here is pretty decent and pretty cheap. Service is definitely fast and most people order takeaway. Good if you want food on the go.

This review is for Dessert House Eatery, Melbourne VIC

My friends love this place and I have no idea why. I've eaten there twice and I must say the service isn't great nor friendly. And the food is relatively tasteless. Not really much going on here to take me back. I had a crepe here once which wasn't too bad, but the serving size was definitely not worth what I paid for it.

This review is for Laksa King, Flemington VIC

Parents take me here for their laksa and I love dipping roti into the broth to eat. The service can sometimes be slow but you can't blame them when they're so busy and food is cooked to order. Definitely need to make a reservation or you'll be waiting for ages for a table.

This review is for By Korea, Melbourne VIC

Great korean food, they don't have built in grills but they have portable stoves so you can grill at the table. The staff cook the meat for you so sit back and relax. Just a tip, keep your phone off the table while grilling or it'll get splattered with oil from the grill. I always order the pork belly when I go and the serving size is good. They usually have a lunch offer where if you order from their set menu you can get a free drink. Definitely one to check out if you want good, inexpensive Korean food.

This review is for Oriental Spoon, Melbourne VIC

Love the atmosphere at Oriental Spoon, usually pretty busy so make sure to book! The food is delicious and they offer to grill on the table or cook in the kitchen, so you get to decide how you get your food. The staff are friendly and they don't rush you out after you've finished your food.

This review is for Ngoc Dzung 2 Hair Salon, St Albans VIC

verified email - 07 Jun 2012

I mostly go here to colour my hair and the staff are very friendly and even recognise me by face and know my colour. The prices are cheap compared with other places I have been. I went from dark brown hair to blonde for only $95. Asking around, this place is definitely one of the cheaper places. I usually just walk in, so it's not necessary to book ahead, but they can get busy so if you're short on time I would suggest calling ahead to make an appointment.

A friend took me here to try their spicy sausage soup and I absolutely fell in love with it. They serve delicious food for decent prices and the service is fast and efficient. They have some nice soju cocktails as well that are worth checking out.

This review is for Laksa Me, Melbourne VIC

verified email - 07 Jun 2012

Eaten here many times and I love the food. The menu is constantly changing which means there's always something new to try. But the popular dishes never get taken away so don't worry about that! I've been here with a few Malaysian friends and they always say the Laksa is very authentic to how they had it back home. I'm not Malaysian, nor have I ever been to Malaysia but I must say the laksa is definitely one if the best I've had.

This review is for Stolberg Beer Cafe, Preston VIC

Went here for lunch and had the steak sandwich and chocolate mousse. Very disappointed in how everything tasted. Presentation wise it looked very appealing. This place might be okay for drinks, but probably find a meal elsewhere.

This review is for Aura Cafe Restaurant Bar, Templestowe Lower VIC

verified email - 07 Jun 2012

Really friendly staff and amazing food. Went there for dinner and the food was delicious and definitely good value for money. Also held a function at Aura and they were so helpful with organising the catering and being super flexible. Definitely the place to go for a coffee, a drink, lunch or to hold an event.
