I just went to the him today as a recommendation from my partner. It was one of the worst dentist I've been to.

We were told to arrive at 11am on the dot, which we did. We got two reminders from the secretary, which was nice The dentist was caught talking to another customer for 45 minutes, which is in ALL honesty fine. We wait ages to get into an appointment to see dr/dentist these days anyway. However, if he expects us to wait then I expect him to provide decent service.

Finally he comes in around quarter to 12pm. My partner and I were booked together from 11am-12pm . He cleaned her teeth first and made conversation as usual. He completely ignores me the whole time I'm sitting there. So fine, be it, the patient in front of him is most important. So I just sit and wait. My partner asks him how much it is to clean teeth, he goes from $30-$80 which sounds reasonable.

Then it's my turn. It's 12:05pm. Doesn't ask me how I am, just looks at the clock, asks who is booked in at 12pm to his assistant. Then looks at me and asks what can he do. I tell him I have a like this crack line on my tooth, he takes 2 seconds to explain to me that he would fill in a gap and starts getting to work. The whole process was rushed. He cleaned my teeth and did a dodgy job, skipped several steps, my back teeth are still uncleaned, doesn't apply any fluoride at the end and literally kicks us out of the room in less than 10 minutes from the time he started.
Then charges me maximum $80 for dodge cleaning. I rather pay more money for a proper clean then $80 for surface deep service. He can expect none of my hard earned money for his dodgy work and neither should anyone else.

Overall, the food was great. The meat was well marinated and the food quality was great. There was a variety of meats to choose from.

The place is quite smokey though, so expect to come home smelling like barbecue. But otherwise the atmosphere is quite relaxed.

I went here with two of my friends, we ordered beef, pork and octopus dish. The beef, pork and chicken came out. It took forever for the rice to come out. We had to ask them three times for the rice. Then we had to ask them about the octopus (since we found the chicken was nice, we were willing to pay for it). The server told us that the octopus was replaced with the chicken.

However... when it got to the bill we were charged for FOUR dishes. They dealt with the situation well, confirming and double checking it. But noone likes to be charged for something they didn't get, especially when it was double checked that the octopus wasn't listed down.

Not the best of service but good food.

My friend and I came to this place a few times. The first time we were kicked out because we had our own drinks - understandable.
The second time we came in, we placed and order for their $9 steak and I had a seafood risotto. I waited for 40 minutes for the food. Then one of the staff members came to notify us that the system did not put our order through and it would be another 12 mins. In actual fact it took almost an hour in total for the food to be served. There was no compensation at all. No small dish of garlic bread, no drink offered. Nothing.
We had waited for ONE WHOLE hour for the food. It's disgusting.
If they were a reasonable business, if they valued their customer the whole process would have been something like
"We really apologise for the whole situation and as compensation we would like to offer you a drink/garlic bread on the house until your food comes out."

The food was nice. But honestly, I would never, ever go here again.

Approximate cost: $9-20

I went to this restaurant recently because it was opened late (it was still open at 10pm) and it was fairly quiet compared to the others on the same street. The food was nice and my favourite was the Canh Chua with Ca (which is basically a fish dish). This dish is very cheap compared to other places with the same deal.

This is one of the most popular restaurants among the Vietnamese in the area. I've dined a few times at this restaurant and they've got an interesting and new way of receiving your order with electronic devices. In terms of pricing though, they are a bit more dear than your typical Vietnamese restaurant.

A really nice pharmacy to visit, which lives up to their name of "Caring Chemist". I came there looking for a medication and was greeted immediately and asked if i wanted any help. She provided me with more than enough medication and recommended other essential things I need to do to feel better.

This review is for Dentist Gregg Frank, Bankstown NSW

I went to Dr. Gregg Frank for my braces. He's a very careful dentist and always willing to answer any question that you may have. The staff are very friendly and the service that he provides is always up to standard. They use high quality machines for sanitizing the equipment, which makes me feel that much better about going to the dentist.

Dr. Llewellyn is famous mostly for her treatment of pimples. She's had lots of experience and her handling of my case showed that she knew what she was doing. She was friendly and the staff at the reception was friendly as well. Bookings are essential!

This review is for Bankstown Medical Centre, Bankstown NSW

I came to the medical centre on a late weekday and it was quite packed. The receptionist wasn't very friendly when she greeted me and I was informed there was only 2 doctors available with a large number of patients on hand. I waited almost 2 hours before I was seen.

The thing I like most about this place is the huge servings that they give for each dish. The dishes are delicious with a reasonable price. I often have take away more than eating there since it's always a bit too crowded and stuffy for me.
