This small restaurant and takeaway has only been open about a month, and I have to say we were very impressed! We originally planned to get takeaway, however decided last minute to dine in. The decor is simple but fresh, and the service was excellent! We enjoyed vegetarian spring rolls, Jungle curry, Ginger beef stir fry and chicken fried rice. Every dish was delicious, well proportioned and filled with fresh and quality ingredients! We were happy with all of our food and it is also extremely well-priced. If you live locally give these guys a go, they are open everyday from 10am - 8pm and do great lunch specials too!

Approximate cost: $9.00

This place is divine! The best Churro's you'll get in Australia! Spanish style desserts with a focus on Chocolate. The spanish latte is AMAZING!!! Gorgeous atmosphere too, with a warm inviting decor. The milkshakes are a must try too!

Great locations and fantastic decor, this place opened not too longer and still a few teething problems around service etc, however the food is delicious! A bit of a gastro take on traditional smoked meats, tender meat, tasty sauces and unusual but delicious sides! I had the pulled pork collar butt, which was very tasty! Desserts looked nice too but couldn't fit them in as the meals are pretty filling!

Approximate cost: $30

This place is great! Real authentic US food, at reasonable prices. The decor is a modern approach to the old school diner's you'd find in the US. We had the buffalo wings (AMAZING), Mac & Cheese (relish) and the Apple pie for dessert. The drinks also look amazing, cocktails and shakes to die for! Highly recommend. we also had a fantastic server that really made the experience enjoyable.

This review is for Ada's Kebabs, Palm Beach QLD

This place is famed amongst locals - It's been years since I had a kebab as I'm always worried about food poisoning, but this place is clean and has fresh ingredients. Everything is made in front of you and the service is quick and friendly. A good kebab even if you aren't drunk/hungover!

I've know of this place for years but had never been inside until recently. I went in to print out some digital prints which was easy enough, the prints weren't the cheapest around but not too expensive so I didn't mind. Shockingly though I was there around 9am and got two enlarged prints (5x7) and a couple of regular prints, and they told me they wouldn't be ready until after 4pm the next day?! I thought that such a large store with in-house printing would only take an hour or so? That said, it's a huge store and also holds camera equipment, as well as a HUGE craft/scrapbooking section! I was lost in there for about 30 mins just looking at all the fun stuff!

We thoroughly enjoyed this indian - its new and the Manager/owner is lovely! She was very friendly and explained the menu. There are vegan options available and the ingredients used were fresh and tasty. We got takeaway but the dine-in restaurant also looks lovely! Highly recommend!

This review is for Manly Deck Restaurant, Manly QLD

I've been to this restaurant twice - Once on Mothers Day and again recently for Halloween. Despite it's great location and views - this place doesn't really hit the mark for me. The interior is painted dark grey - it's so dark inside it's like being in a nightclub during the day! The food is ok, I wouldn't rave about it though. The staff are lovely, but unfortunately the decor just lets the whole place down.

This review is for Bay Wash, Tingalpa QLD

What a great carwash! We tried the no-touch neoprene drive through service - and it left our filthy car sparkling clean! There are other services there also, DIY carwash, dog wash, vacuum etc. The best thing is they have Merlo Coffee and Eagle Boys pizza as well! The guy who served us (possibly the owner?) was very friendly and explained the various options to us. We will be back!

This review is for shady palms cafe, Greenslopes QLD

This place does THE BEST cheeseburger outside of the USA! Great food (Pan-American style) and a fun chilled out atmosphere. It can get packed, so food can be a little slow but worth the wait. The cocktails and drinks menu also looked really good. A great addition to the Stones Corner scene!
