The pet mince from here we're told has no added water or fillers etc..Big range of Prepackaged frozen goods including sefood & fresh cuts of all meats.
Tall blonde butcher is very friendly & accommodating - the good ol' fashioned butcher who makes you feel at home.
Was recently served by a middle aged brunette colleague who seemed less than happy to be there or to serve me - Oh well, will ask for the blonde one next time.

Jock is very friendly & professional. We have had Jock install pet doors into glass windows on a couple of occasions.

Each time, Jock has been punctual, courteous & clean. His prices seem very reasonable.

We will use Jock's services again & we always recommend him to anyone requiring glazing jobs.

Unique & Amazing Authentic Australian flavours. The Chef kindly ran through the menu & specials which was appreciated & made us feel at home. His meals were absolutely divine including the sides such as perfected chips & original Australian salad. Desserts should not be passed by!

The other service person was a little 'ho-hum' & we weren't completely happy with her smoothies. Service is a little lengthy but good company & fantastic food make every minute worthwhile.

The only restaurant in Manuka (from 6 others we have tried) that we would definitely go back to without hesitation.

We took a family member (& partner) here for a birthday dinner and not only were we ignored a lot of the time, the meals were horrendous.

One member ordered the scallops as a main. 4 scallops were on the plate but they weren't whole scallops - they had been cut in half so essentially on the plate there were only 2 scallops - as a main course!

Two of us got the fish special. It was small & overcooked & there was nothing else on the plate except 2 half scallops.

The last member ordered the battered fish & chips. Well that seemed to be the only meal which was of an acceptable main course size & which was well cooked. But I can get this at my local fish n' chip shop!

We walked out completely hungry & when we expressed our disappointment, they gave a simple apology but did not hesitate in charging full price - which was $170.00 (for 4 main meals & 4 drinks)

WOW the flavours explode your senses! Delicious meal, wonderful presentation, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere = a great night out. We prefer the kita to the enjera bread but each to their own. If you can't make it to Dickson, these guys are also set up at the Kingston Markets every Sunday where you can sample a small selection of their tasty flavours.

We have eaten here on a few occasions but have never been impressed with any of the meals and we have sampled quite a few. Our latest experience was probably our last, we find their style of Indian cooking to not be quite the standard of some other restaurants and find it to be rather like ready-to-heat packet Indian meals - Blah

Always an absolute pleasure & experience to dine at Belluci's Phillip. The meals are divine & generous and worth every cent. The blood orange oysters were orgasmic although it is not a standard menu item (Belluci's please add it to the menu...!!!!)

The service is very hospitable and they make you feel completely welcomed. If you are running early, grab a seat at the bar & sample some beer, wines or cocktails. It is always humming with atmosphere & there is inside & outside dining. We recommend to try everything!

We love Goodberrys! Whether a late night snack after a dinner or night out or even take-away, Goodberrys is wonderful anytime of year. The frozen custard with the multitude of flavour choices, the nachos & hot dogs is all yummy, yummy, yummy. The staff are always friendly. 5% of times, they put a little too much flavour which can be a complete sugar overload (or over-salty if too much peanut butter) but that would be our only issue. Other than that, they have always made a perfect treat for any occasion and I don't know how we'd survive without our Goodberrys fix!

Ojo's is great for all occasions - breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks or live entertainment. There are pool tables, a jukebox, indoor & outdoor seating.

There are weekly blackboard specials which are changed each Thursday & we have had some absolute corkers such as the seafood risotto which was divine + the regular menu also has many yummy dishes such as the salt & pepper prawns, the parmesan & onion bread is awesome (especially with a beer) Or for breakfast, the Nordic eggs is superb.

We do not recommend the nachos (v) or the ceasar salad although there are rumours of a menu change soon so hopefully both get dropped quick smart. We are also not fond of the coffee & find it weak & watery although we always find something else to drink. The service is always pleasant although one time when we complained about the meals which we hardly ate, yet all there was just a simple apology & we were still charged full price.
