Kido's is my favourite japanese restaurant, fully authentic from decor to the chef, Mr & Mrs Kidos run the restaurant. Very excellent service from the traditional japanese way.

The food especially tempura made by Mr Kidos is excellent, I am so glad I have them in my area, I will recommend them to anyone who wants to try japanese food.

Approximate cost: $16

I went there on Thursday for dinner with my partner, my sister and her husband. The waiting queue was very long at around 7.30pm, the staff told us that it would take about 30 minutes so we put our name down and went for a walk around the hotel. When we returned at 8pm, the staff could not find our name and told us we had to wait another 45minutes! She did not even apologize to us and still had a very harsh look on her face.

The service was shockingly disappointing for a reputable place like that. But other than the service at the counter, the food was great with many varieties and the desserts are spectacular. The value for money is alright as you would expect to pay this sort of pricing for eating in such restaurants.

This review is for Salt Dish Cafe, Geraldton WA

We went up to Geraldton in early 2012 and while looking for breakfast/lunch we came across this cafe, it was packed but we decided to give it a go.

The interiors were very nicely decorated with a vintage feel, the service was very good even when it was busy and of course the food I had: scrambled eggs, toast, bacon, mushroom and spinach all cooked to perfection!

I recommend anyone visiting Geraldton to give it a try.

My family makes a trip there every few months for picnics and I always get amazed at how the place does not change as compared to other parts of Australia, this is one place where having no changes is good.

It still feels like years ago and brings back memories. It is great for picnic with the family and you can get to see koalas.

This review is for Chocolateria San Churro, Northbridge WA

Disappointing service, we waited 20minutes to be seated, 20minutes to be served and because the food made our throats very dry we asked for water - which took about an hour and after 3 times of asking still did not come.

Other than the service, the quality of the food is good, San Churros has the best chocolates. If you are thinking of having chocolate, don't go for this particular branch.

This review is for Australias Finest Burgers (FAB), Hillarys WA

A new burger shop I went to in Hillarys, the service was just fantastic! Very friendly staff, a good ambience, they even provided markers so you could draw on the table while you waited.

The burgers they serve can truly be called Australia's Finest. With a side and drink should cost you only about 16 dollars, which is not bad at all for such a tasty meal!

My partner and I bought our Honda from Adrian, he is friendly and helpful, not too pushy and he allowed us to test some vehicles, at the end he also gave us a special deal.

This review is for Mount Lawley Pets & Puppies, Mount Lawley WA

I popped into the shop for a visit one day and got my Labrador puppy from about half a year back. Bob's service was excellent and brought me to the special puppy that was on special and we're both happy I went to the shop that day.

Elly has been microchipped and vaccinated when I brought her home, she is very healthy and growing well, we enjoy our morning walks together everyday.

I will recommend anyone who wishes to get pets from them, unlike most major pet retailers, they are dedicated to the health of the little animals and even have a backyard play area for the animals to exercise!

This review is for Taka, Perth WA

I went there about two weeks ago on the 5th of December, and never wanted to go back.

This shop is terrible, they had many cockroaches on the walls on my visit - we counted about 10 at least while we were having our meal. It was just too many to be a stray that crawled in as we were told!

The girl who worked there then sprayed the insecticide over wall, that landed into the sauces that were left at the side or the customers to add into their food!

Good value for the food but I am absolutely disgusted. Might be costing more to your health than the value you save!

Approximate cost: $5.80

This review is for Auswa Automotive Services, Morley WA

There are no chairs, no air-condition, the place is dirty, but which mechanic place isn't?

Mike and Aaron are really honest mechanics, they do a good job and then charge very little. No unexpected bills as they will give you a free inspection and tell you how much it would cost to fix it.

In 2011, I had to get my old volvo fixed and Automasters quoted me about $700 for the job, I do remember they said that there could be more costs arising. Mike and Aaron did the entire job for less than $400. Really amazing value.

Approximate cost: $400
