I was referred to Aldens immediately upon moving to the area by at least 3 people. Have had work done there twice and their quotes came in cheaper than others both times, plus the service is 2nd to none. Really nice guys, not out to rip us ladies off either. Can't rate them highly enough.
Since i know absolutely ziltch about cars i can't say whether the work they provide is 'quality' or if the value for money amazing, what i do know is that a.) my husband rates them, b.) they're super friendly and have been operating as a family business for 18 years & c.) they tell you what needs fixing immediatley and what you can get away with for a while. I like their honesty and good manners. I can't say i've ever felt ripped off by them, there's a good vibe about them. They get the thumbs up from me.
Best Mexican Restaurant in Queensland and dare I say the world. The atmosphere is amazing, they have an endless supply of sombreros and often the entire restaurant is wearing them when you walk in, even the shot glasses have a tiny cactus in the centre. It's all perfectly in theme. The food is first class, none of the messy slop you sometimes find at other mexican places, fresh healthy delicious eye catching food is well presented by Loz and her friendly staff who are attentive but not in your face. The thing I like most about this place is the fact that you can come casually, dressed up, have a romantic dinner for two or a birthday party for 10. Pickled Cactus is my favorite restaurant by a long shot and i'm so happy they're local. Favorite meals - Tostada el supremo (super healthy), Tortilla Stack (not so healthy but omg delish), and the classic fish taco, my mid week treat. The Mars Bar Chimichanga is also heaven if you have room to spare. Sangria to wash it all down or that cocktail with Tequila and grapefruit juice. The Pickled Cactus comes with my highest recommendation.
Approximate cost: $20
