I've been here quite a number of times now and every time, I am treated to the same excellent service. The staff can be very proud of their efforts in spoiling all customers. The scenery alone really sells this place. It's truly one of the few places I can take my two small kids, have a great coffee and meet up with friends. Thank you for your wonderful service.

This review is for Fast Lane Swim School, Wellington Point QLD

Five stars because they are the only swim school that I have found that were able to take on my terrified of water little boy. Two trainers in particular Paige and Bec have worked so well with my son and taught him to swim. He has gained confidence in all areas of swimming and I have this swim school to thank. Even when I have not been able to get him to a class, they allowed a make-up class. They are truly very kind and extremely patient. I recommend very highly.

Cole is an outstanding lawnmower and gardner. My wife and I searched for ages to find someone like him. He came and mowed out lawn and did a great job. He is friendly, helpful and always willing to help.

Located conveniently just outside the roma Street train station in Brisbane this little gem you just can't miss. Always busy but spectacular service. Whether you want a coffee, morning tea or even lunch it caters for all. The service is great and staff very friendly. I particularly like the Frappes with sandwiches from their display window. Prices are average and on par with city prices.

This review is for Sada Punjab, Wellington Point QLD

There are so many Indian restaurants my area so I am quite spoilt for choice. I have to say with Sada Punjab's new entry in the area I am quite pleased. I was very impressed by the immediate Indian feel of the restaurant itself. The staff were very professional in both serving but also explaining the dishes they sell. I find it hard to go past butter chicken and the fancy cheese and spinach naan bread (amazing). I also had the opportunity to try one of the lassi drinks, it's like a yoghurt type drink and I thought it tasted pretty good. The prices are reasonably, they have the usual kids menu and if you don't want to eat in you can take away if you wish. They have a website also so its worth checking out the menu to see what you like as there is quite a lot too choose from. Well done guys doing an amazing job and nice to have another competitor for indian in the area. Will go back for seconds!!!!

Approximate cost: $55

I gotta say I'm really impressed by this place. I've driven past it many many times but never gone in until recently. The atmosphere is just lovely with heaps of areas to sit whether be in or outside. The menu is quite extensive and it's pretty easy to blow the budget. The good thing is though the prices are quite reasonable. I enjoyed the entree satay chicken and the spring rolls were also great. Even the soups were pretty good and I'm not a soup person but it was quite good. The staff were excellent and attentive and also told us about how you can get take away and also home delivery. But keep in mind there would be fees for home delivery and possibly a minimum spend. My pick for the dinner though at this stage is the BBQ chicken.

This review is for Oporto, Petrie Terrace QLD

verified email - 08 Jul 2017

It's not often that I would even contemplate giving any food place 5 stars, but my recent visit to the brand spanking new Oporto restaurant at the Barracks in Brisbane (Petrie Terrace) deserves every one. The restaurant has the typical oporto feel with all the bells and whistles, lovely outdoor area to sit and enjoy. The food quality is excellent and I'd certainly recommend anything in the $10 range which will get you a burger, drink and fries. I'd also recommend joining their loyalty club which I had already done previously. On the day I went, the registers had a malfunction which ment they could not put my order through correctly. The Manager gave me my meal for free, but I told her I was happy to pay. The service was already amazing and the cash register issue was just a small glitch. The reason for my five stars is based on the following. Presentation, good range of meals at good prices, customer service. Good, tidy eating areas and a nice little loyalty club also. I thoroughly recommend them.

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for DEXTERS BY THE BAY, Ormiston QLD

As far as I can tell this restaurant replaces the old Tomatoe Brothers Ormiston, with a fresh new and more modern name. I absolutely can't fault the service, they went all out from the welcome greeting, to checking on our meals to wishing us a good night. My wife and I and two kids ordered Pizza, opting to choose a couple of different pizzas to get a real feel for what the pizzas were like. Size wise I just ordered a normal sized pizza which in my eyes was just perfect. I liked the effort they put into naming their pizzas but didn't think they were anything particularly above just being average. The prizes are obviously alot higher than a local pizza delivery but then again you'd expect that for gourment food. What I was particuarly suprised by was the wait time. Now at 5pm you'd have to think it would be full of families, but to my suprise there were only two small groups of people, but for some strange reason the wait was a bit excessive. All in all, I think it was a bit "too expensive" for average quality pizzas. Service good. Worth a look just to see if you are a fan but don't expect anything too out of the box.

Approximate cost: $50

I sincerely could not asked for more, these guys are outstanding. On time, explained everything in perfect detail. Great pricing and were more than happy to answer all my questions. The cockaroach problem has gone and they put a sticker underneath the kitchen sink to let me know when to call them again. It's all about maintenance. Even the tidiest of homes get pests. The results speak for themselves and I'm sticking with these guys.

This review is for Vivid Photography, Maleny QLD

verified email - 21 Aug 2014

If I could give these guys 6 stars I would. My wife and I received a $250 voucher towards a photo sitting after purchasing a baby seat. We decided to go along and get a photo sitting. Immediately when you go in you can't help but notice the beautiful wedding portrait's, baby and family shots. The photographer was loverly and she made the whole sitting enjoyable. We got heaps of photos, then went back for a viewing. There were so many great shots, it was near impossible to cull them down. It went from $250 towards it to spending nearly 4,000 for a package of photos that were nothing short of sensational. If you want good photos sure you can go to any photographer, but if you want great photos beyond belief with full frames and images to die for, then go to Vivid.
