This review is for Toll Ipec, Wingfield SA

Ordered a large item online. Missed the original delivery due to an appointment and rang Toll Ipec to reschedule the same day. Was told it would be delivered the next day, so waited at home only for it to not turn up. Rang that afternoon to find out what had happened and was told that the item never left the depot, and it would be delivered on the Monday with a phone call to confirm this in the morning of the day. No apologies offered. Sat at home Monday, nothing. No phone call even. Desperately having to go out the next day, left the authority to leave item note on the front door, very clearly marked with "please leave on BACK porch"
Got home to find item sitting on front porch, in clear view. I realise I missed the original delivery but this is really, really poor. Given the choice I wouldn't be using them again.

The best Nandos we've been to, after bad experiences with cold/undercooked chicken at other ones. It's never really busy, which makes for a nice quiet meal in the back of the restaurant. Love the half chicken and chips!

We have recently joined as members here after starting to dine here regularly. Have never been disappointed with our meals or the service, the quality is fantastic. Sat in on a live band a couple of months ago in the members lounge too, was a good night. We like that the pokies are kind of tucked away, you wouldn't really know they were there and you certainly don't hear them over your mealtime conversation.

Fantastic business. I have been here many times, including with my job on behalf of people who have disabilities and need super soft materials on their feet. The slippers have always fit beautifully and can be made especially if needed too. This is the sort of high quality service you just don't see much of anymore.

This review is for Original Nail, Bayswater VIC

I had acrylic nails for 8 years (until recently) and have been to my fair share of nail salons as I've moved etc for refills. I tried this place after moving into the area and wanting to save on the travel. I found the staff here to be disinterested, talked amongst themselves and not to me unless absolutely necessary. Quality of work was fine, but there are cheaper options nearby at Knox for the same result.

I've loved this place forever. Especially love the meal deal, $16 for an entree, main and drink. Great value, great food. Wonton soup and chicken curry noodles are my regular choices, but I haven't yet had something there that I haven't enjoyed. Service is good, friendly and quick. Love it.

Not having a "regular" pizza place nearby we thought we'd give this one a go. I liked the variety of their menu over other pizza places and enjoyed my pizza, though not as much as hubby loved his wings.

This review is for Thai Tables, Bayswater VIC

We are regulars here, I especially love their chicken yellow curry and coconut rice. We only do takeaways these days as it's a bit squishy in there for folks with a pram, and it's always busy. Fine by us though, the food is always fresh, hot and yum.

My husband's steak was very over cooked. He sent it back, and as he was waiting on the replacement I found a hair in my pasta. Response from staff was "what NOW?"
Won't be back.
