This review is for Om Laptop Repairs, Melbourne VIC

verified email - 06 May 2015

Service was great. I was very stressed out as my laptop had been smashed with 3 uni assignments due in the next 7 days, so needed a very quick repair and turnaround time.
Dropped it in at midday on Tuesday, and it was ready by midday on Wednesday.
I wasn't able to pick it up from the shop, as my lunchbreak clashed with an onsite visit, but they dropped my laptop off to my work in the city - very much appreciated!
Cheapest/best price I was able to find too.
Thank you!

Approximate cost: $600

This review is for Freedom Dental, Melbourne VIC

The team at Freedom Dental are fantastic. I am absolutely terrified of the dentist - it usually takes me a year to get the courage to go, but the pre-appointment consultation really helps to settle me. The dental nurse explains what is going to happen, and asks if there's anything they can do to ease your discomfort. They offer happy gas and DVDs for you to watch, which makes it a lot more pleasant! Overall the team are kind, and Dr Alice in particular is gentle and very skilled. The candle you can collect by checking in on Facebook is beautiful too!

This review is for Glenferrie Gourmet Meats, Hawthorn VIC

These guys are fantastic.
The food is amazing - I moved to Hawthorn a few months ago, and fell in love with this place soon after. Their sausages are incredible (try the rosemary & honey ones), their pre-made beef stroganoff is perfect for a quick meal, the steaks are thick and juicy, and the homemade sausage rolls are perfect for a small gathering/party!
I also ordered a Christmas ham from them for Christmas 2014, and although it was pricey, it was well worth every cent. It was the sweetest, tastiest ham I've ever eaten and I had a lot of compliments from the friends that shared it!
The guys and gals that work there are brilliant - helpful, knowledgeable, and there is no such thing as a stupid question! They offer recommendations but there is no pressure to take them - they are just happy to have you there. Highly recommend this butcher!

Very happy! I purchased one of their special Christmas Yuletide Log cakes and it was absolutely amazing. Easy to order, happy to accommodate when my friend had to collect it for me (I'd sprained my ankle so couldn't make it in) and the cake itself was incredible. Highly recommend the desserts from here.

This review is for The Iconic, Surry Hills NSW

verified email - 07 Jan 2015

I received a voucher for The Iconic and was excited to use it - $250 to spend on clothes, what a treat! Unfortunately I was let down in many ways.
1. The delivery was scheduled for the evening between 5:30pm - 9:30pm. It didn't turn up, and I had no notification that it was going to be delayed so wasted a night.
2. They sent me the wrong item
3. When I emailed to resolve the wrong item, they promised they'd get in touch in 2 business days - 4 business days ago. I go overseas in 3 days so I'm looking forward to trying to resolve / post the item back to them from Germany.

Honestly wouldn't recommend them - maybe as a last resort if you can't find what you want elsewhere, but don't trust the same day/same evening delivery service.

This review is for Viva Physiotherapy, Melbourne VIC

I saw Fiona after breaking my leg, and she was brilliant. Friendly, patient and very helpful in explaining my options and recovery process. I've since made a full recovery, and credit this to Fiona and Viva - very, very happy!

This review is for Yarra Indian Take Away & Cafe, South Yarra VIC

verified email - 05 Oct 2014

This is truly the best Indian food I have ever eaten. I find it hard to eat anywhere else, because I know it won't be as good.

Living in South Yarra for almost two years, I frequented this place a lot. It's hidden, but I love it - makes you feel like you know a secret that no one else does!

The food is incredible. The lamb curry is my favourite - the lamb is tender and moist, full of flavour. Other meals are amazing too - the butter chicken and the lamb korma are other standouts.

You can't beat the price - $10 for a main, including rice, naan bread and papadums. Ridiculous for such great food. Mango lassi is another favourite, worth a try.

Even now that I have moved, I still go back to South Yarra just to eat here. The man that runs is it so friendly, he remembers me every time I go back and even recognises my voice when I ring to place a takeaway order!

Highly recommend the food here - you will definitely not be disappointed.

This review is for The Glam House, Richmond VIC

I love my regular visits to The Glam House. I started going after finding an online voucher, and I am so glad I did! I continue to go back for other services. I've tried a number of them now, including facial, massage, waxing and hair, and each has been fantastic. The staff are caring, gentle and friendly, and very good at what they do. Marie is lovely, and you can tell she treats her staff very well - very important for me!
Great location, beautiful salon - highly recommend The Glam House!
