I love Tsiknaris. I always get amazing quality foils here. I have never walked away unhappy.

I also love that the hairdressers treat you with such care: cups of tea, friendly chats and lovely head massages.

I can't imagine going elsewhere now!

You would think the meat here is poor quality due to the bargain prices but that's not the case. I gave Pattons a go and I buy most of my stuff there now. Can't go past their sirloins!

Meat much cheaper than Woolies and better quality. The thing that makes this place is the service. The butcher asked me if I wanted my steaks bagged in pairs. Never been asked before! Very impressed.

Great bridal boutique. The only place in Brisbane that stocks pronovias gowns. The girl there was very attentive and helpful. Be sure to make an appointment though as I doubt they take walk ins.

This place has stood the test of time. Their food is always sensational, a little expensive but worth every cent. Service is very good. And unlike many other places, when they make a mistake they fix it properly by comping. It's a beautifully presented restaurant too with indoor and outdoor dining. I always walk away happy from here!

Yummy yummy food, cosy atmosphere and very reasonable prices. Not pretentious. I've been a few times and will keep going back.

Approximate cost: $15-20

This review is for Ribs & Rumps, Fortitude Valley QLD

Novelty place to go with friends. The ribs are pretty good but not mind blowing. Husband loved it though! Expensive meals for what you get: just meat and potato if you order the ribs. Good atmosphere but terrible service. Might go back but not itching to...

Approximate cost: $35

This review is for Belmont Cutz & Colours, Belmont QLD

Disappointed with this salon. It's a shame because the prices are very reasonable and the people were nice....But I walked out with one of the worst colour jobs I've ever had, and that was after they tried fixing it twice. Normally I would not walk out of a salon if I wasn't happy, but I'd had enough and am not confident my hair would improve by going back. Will go to another salon to get it fixed hopefully. Mediocre cut too. No head massage. Won't be going back.

Approximate cost: $100

Just ate here the other night with friends. This was some of the best fish and chips I've ever eaten - and it was excellent value for money. There is no table service - it's a takeaway style joint but it has a cute little area out back with tables made out of old doors and 'lightbulb' fairy lights overhead. Really quaint and beautiful. Food came out quick and it was delicious - it's BYO too - no glasses provided (free paper cups) - but no corkage either! This will definitely become one of my regular spots!

Approximate cost: $11-$12

I cannot rate Frida highly enough. She has made several dresses (including my wedding dress) and made numerous alterations for me. She is very talented and extremely modestly priced.
