This review is for Salsa's Fresh Mex Grill, Wantirna South VIC

verified email - 04 May 2009

I've been to Salsa's Fresh Mexican Gill restaurant not long after it first opened in Knox O-Zone. The meals are prepared fresh, the meals are ok in value, and the service... well, let's say its as you'd expect at a fast food joint. The place has a Nando's feel to it... but Mexican. The food is ok. I think there's a bit of false advertising though. The servings look so huge on the display but when it comes out, you get this tiny serving. Overall, the place is just ok.

This review is for Nudle (Knox), Wantirna South VIC

If you're looking for a quick asian dish on-the-go, then look no further than Nudle to satisfy your tastebuds. The quality of the food is very good and the dishes are quite authentic. If you're looking for value, try their meal deal which includes a choice of entree, main dish and a drink for around $13. The only interaction you get with the waiters is at the counter when you order, and when they bring you your food. Service isn't the greatest though; the staff tend to be snobby and pay little attention to you. Oh well, I'm there for the cheap food anyway!

Approximate cost: $9

This review is for Grill'd, Wantirna VIC

Grill'd burgers are always oh-so-good! Fresh gourmet ingredients, big fat juicy meat in an irresistable bun. Yes, Grill'd is pretty much a fast-food joint, but the food tastes so different from your traditional Maccas or Hungry Jacks. The burgers are made when you order; you can actually watch them prepare your burger since they don't block off the kitchen from public view. The burgers aren't cheap-cheap but they are worth every penny. And OH... their chips is so yum! Try it with herb mayo!

This review is for The Coffee Club, Wantirna South VIC

Maybe I've just never liked the idea of self-service, but to me, the lack of attention you get at The Coffee Club is more than disappointing. Although the quality of the food and drinks are good, they tend to charge you a hefty price for every food and drink item. I mean come on, $5.45 for a normal mug of coffee with soy? I admit, the venue is nice and gives a nice casual modern feel, but I just don't think the high prices are worth the lack of service you experience.

This review is for Bar Bosh Kitchen, Wantirna South VIC

Bar Bosh is indeed a great place to relax, wind back with friends and have a nice meal. The food and drinks there have always been of superb quality, and their staff are knowledgeable and friendly. During the colder months, they have outdoor heaters to accomodate those who wish to brave the freezing cold. The indoor ambiance is fantastic. I love it there.

This review is for Hush Bar, Wantirna South VIC

verified email - 04 May 2009

The ambiance of the bar is fantastic as soon as you walk in. It has a very casual, warm, comfortable, trendy feel to it; however, service has never been great. After many bad experiences, I have returned on quite a few occasions (persuaded by friends); and yet the service quality has not changed. They will never come serve you at your table, instead you have to approach the bar to get any attention at all. Most of the time, the staff are sitting there watching the MTVs or movies played on the big screen TV. I enjoy the stuff they play there, but have they ever heard of the laws regards playing movies in public? The soft drinks and mixed spirits are always served tasting flat and syrupy. Glasses and mugs are left on tables and not cleared away for hours on end. The place just feels... dirty. Funky... yet dirty. The bar is owned and managed by the same people who own Lou Lou's (about 100m away).

This review is for Dolly Girl, Glen Waverley VIC

verified email - 01 May 2009

Dolly Girl always has new arrivals of stock coming in weekly. I am a regular customer and always rely on them for my weekend outfits. The assistants are always happy to help (unless you don't buy anything). They have a good range of women's clothes, bags and accessories. The prices are ok, not good for value for not outrageously pricey. All in all, a good place to go for a new addition to your wardrobe.

This review is for Bonjouk, Glen Waverley VIC

verified email - 01 May 2009

The service is always so friendly, oh and the quality and freshness of the food is just amazing! Because Bonjouk is not just a cafe, it is also a shop which sells high-end home decorations and collectables, they tend to overcharge for food and drink items. Worth checking out though! Their coffees are superb!
