Food court quality food. But if you are in the mood for a gigantic pig-out, Ciscos is the way to go.
They have a great range of hotbox food, chicken kiev, parmagana, lasagne, wedges etc. Love it all. The only thing I can suggest is that the chicken is sometimes dry, but can be fixed with gravy.
They are always very friendly behind the counter and are very generous with the food. Huge portions!

Approximate cost: $10

If I could give less than one star for my experience here, I would.
I normally go to another dentist, but have been trying to find a new one. My husband had been here before to get a tooth extracted, so I decided to try here.
Well, it turns out I needed a tooth taken out too. One of the big back molars. The dentist didn't listen at all. I tried to tell him at the beginning that I wasn't completely numb. He didn't listen, just told me that he has put plenty in, I should be. It was the most painful experience of my life. I was actually crying on the table and he pushed my chest down with his elbows while he continued to pull the tooth out.
It has left me terrified of going to the dentist. I panic everytime I need to go.

This restaurant is going downhill. It is a lovely big restaurant, open plan, looking over a grassed area. There is a play area down the side, so ideally it is suited to all types of people.
But the last few times I have been here, there have been very few people. The actual menus are old, with faded paper and tears. It is poorly spread out across many pages, so confusing to read through. The last 2 times we have been here, we weren't even greeted. One waitress was sitting at a table near the cash register and didn't even look at us.
Our meals came out before our cokes. No apologies. No offers of 'can I get you another drink' throughout the night. We just finished our food, got up and paid.
Very disappointing. It used to be so much better.

Approximate cost: $20-30

This review is for Go Seafood, Raceview QLD

I don't know why, but I have lived near this place for years, but never actually been there until recently. I have never looked back.
Their food is delicious- for what it is. Their seafood platter is bountiful and the chips are cooked just the way I like them, all soft on the inside.
The owner of the store is seriously the nicest man you will ever meet. He is a jovial little man that laughs and talks as he cooks. Every time I have been there, he has given me my meal the same way- pretends to throw it over the counter.
Their is not a lot of genuine, down to earth people left like him these days. Highly recommend this place!

This review is for Medeco Medical Centre, Logan Central QLD

For years my husband has suffered with a cough. This centre is the only one that has listened to him and can fix it when it comes up. Every other doctor just looks for the quick answer- asthma, get a puffer. However, it is not the case. He gets a post infectious cough that lasts for months.
It is great, because there are always appointments available. Or if you are really desperate, you can come in and sit. However, we always manage to get an appointment if we ring up.
For a medical centre, this place is great. We drive quite a distance to go here. Plus, it is bulk billed!

My husband went here as a child, as it was his local medical centre. When we moved back to the region, we decided to use this centre.
It was completely different to what he remembered. He had a bad cough and the doctor didn't even check anything. Just said it was an asthmatic cough. We tried to say this is not the case, as it is a condition he has been struggling with for years.
I understand doctors are the qualified ones, but sometimes it helps to listen!

This review is for Brothers Leagues Club, Raceview QLD

Have been going to Brothers for over 10 years now.
It has recently had a full renovation, and looks spectacular. You used to walk in, straight into Poker Machines, which seemed to be the focus. Now you barely see them, you walk into a classy looking café and eatery. You can order a simple meal from there, or there is the full restaurant to the right.
You get what you expect with the meals. If you order from the menu, you have to wait a bit, but it is worth it. The hot box food is cheap, but tastes alright for the price.
Great entertainment, mixes of live bands in a variety of different genres. Definitely a place for a night out.

Approximate cost: $30.00

This review is for Yamanto Tavern, Yamanto QLD

Attended a function here a short time back. It was a great night. Lots of parking spaces available. Well laid out, so if you are using the function room, you can park closer to there than the front door.
Food was great, got to try finger food as well as main meals.

Approximate cost: $20-30

This review is for Hong Kong Cuisine, Ipswich QLD

Stumbled upon this place by accident. We were planning on eating at Go Sing, which is just up the road from this restaurant. For the life of me, I can't remember why, but it was closed. Myself and my 2 friends were dressed, ready to eat out and this place caught our eye as we drove past.
It is lovely inside, traditional decorations, quite spacious. The staff had some trouble understanding us, but worked extra hard to find a solution.
The food was lovely, very strong flavours. The duck was cooked perfectly, and this can be a hard dish to perfect!

Approximate cost: $10-15

This review is for Fantastic Furniture, West Ipswich QLD

This store is like a miniature Ikea. You start at the door and follow the path throughout the store, which is divided into different sections.
We went here to buy my mother a new bed. The assistant was lovely, gave us lots of information- but then new to leave us alone so we could discuss our options.
The package was delivered promptly and bought into the house for my mother.
The store is discount furniture, so is not elaborate glamorous pieces. However they offer more stylish furniture than Ikea, for a similar price.
