We got locked out of our apartment at night (around 9pm) and Justin arrived in about half an hour to drill the lock out and replace its inner cylinder. Our job was originally assigned to Sean, who was on another job at the time. However, when Justin discovered Sean's other job was going to take a while, he came over himself. He was friendly and efficient and really saved the day. I would highly recommend Top Locksmith.

One of the best dental surgeries I've been to. They're quick, efficient, very friendly, [redacted clinical content]. They are a little pricey, though, but then you get what you pay for. I don't have dental insurance and I'm getting three root canals from them so I'm certainly putting my money where my mouth is!
Big Sam's has a good range of all-halal pizzas, fried chicken, and fried fish. It's open till late (till midnight, I think) seven days a week. It's designed mostly as a take-away place so, while there is place to sit and eat, there isn't much service. Basically, it's good, fast, very cheap, and open late.

Excellent Middle Eastern food (falafels, pizzas, etc.), fabulous European desserts (cakes and puddings), and great coffee. Friendly staff and a good atmosphere. It's a good to go to for a meal as well as for dessert and coffee (I've done both a number of times).
Good quality chicken (grilled and fried), fried fish, burgers, chips, and salads. Large portions. Very friendly and helpful staff. I particularly like their fried chicken, chips, and drink-can deals ($6.50). They also take large orders for parties, etc.

Excellent Middle Eastern food (kebabs, dips, turkish bread, etc.). It is a little expensive and it takes a while for your order to be filled (mainly because they're so busy all the time) but it's worth it in the end.
The best tasting Middle Eastern pizzas (herb, meat, cheese, and/or spinach baked on pita bread) I've had in Melbourne. Quick, efficient service (it usually takes just a few minutes per order during busy periods when the oven is hot) and great value for money (even if you stuff yourself). They also take large orders of finger food for parties, etc.
