I shop at several National Pharmacies stores and am always impressed by the cashier staff at the Morphett Vale branch. They are friendly, greet you with a smile and are unobtrusive. Often the last thing you feel like at a pharmacy - especially when buying something personal or potentially embarrassing - is to have someone pounce on you as soon as you walk in the door - asking if you need something in front of other customers, when all you want to do is go in, get what you need, and head straight out. The staff here assist when you ask for help and exercise discretion. Thankful for a continuously positive experience.

If you haven't been to Morocco, and you just can't make that overseas trip right now, Marrakech restaurant is the perfect place to go. It is a 5 star dining experience - from the decor to the food and the excellent service. Mohamad is the owner of the restaurant and his passion for Morocco - the country, the culture, the food, and the importance of family - are evident in everything he does. Bookings are essential. Mohamad will personally come to your table to ensure you are enjoying your meal, and possibly share a story or a laugh even over a cup or two of the delicious Moroccan mint tea. The food is mouth wateringly delicious. I personally recommend the Khizzou carrot dip, and as a main the Afrah tagine (lamb, prunes, almonds). I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.
The Moroccan themed decor is beautiful and there is indoor and outdoor dining.
It's perfect for a special occasion or a cozy dinner. It is quite pricey but definitely well worth it.
Make sure you experience the exotic tastes of Morocco at this fantastic restaurant. Check out the website too.

I recently went to Matsuri for dinner and it was a wonderful experience. We sat in the 'traditional' section - shoes off, feet tucked under the table. The decor is beautiful and there is a degree of privacy offered by a screen or a large decorative kimono separating each dining party. The staff are professional, courteous, kind and patient. The food is delicious and I recommend the sashimi platter. Dishes can take a little while to be served, especially if you order more later in the meal after placing the main order, but it's not a dramatically long wait.
Prices are quite reasonable considering the whole dining experience. We paid $96 for entrees, multiple sushi plates, the entree size sashimi platter, and two glasses of wine each.
On another visit to Matsuri several months ago I tried the plum wine. Wow. What a treat. It is great as an apero or dessert wine. Quite sweet and a taste sensation.
If you want to be transported out of Adelaide for a night for a relaxing and beautiful Japanese dinner, try Matsuri.

I have used SGIC Insurance for several years now. They are professional, prompt, competitively priced (for motor insurance), and provide excellent customer service. I sold my car and rang to cancel my policy. Staff member was professional, helpful and friendly and I ended the call with a smile on my face. Always a positive experience.

I recently purchased some underwear from Myer Marion. The shop assistant was approachable, friendly, and extremely helpful - exactly what is needed, especially buying underwear! She knew the product range well and offered alternatives should I have been looking for something within a similar range.
Will definitely return.

I really enjoy going to Orientai. Went here several nights ago for dinner. Tried the main of the scallop and cashew nut salad. It's a taste sensation. Loaded with shallots though so be prepared for some shallot breath the next morning! The prices are quite reasonable. Have great variety of dishes and they have a good wine selection too. Staff are friendly and provide good service, and remain casual and easy going. Dress code is smart casual. On previous visits I've had the seafood laksa - packed with seafood and very tasty, and the chilli prawns. All very delicious. Recommend for a relaxed night out with family or friends.

I usually buy jeans from Just Jeans. Staff are friendly and upbeat. They listen to my needs and then choose several pairs to try on. Let's face it - buying jeans can sometimes not be the most enjoyable experience! but Just Jeans staff make it that little bit easier. They are honest too with what looks good which I value. Prices are reasonable, and the jeans are durable. They have quite a good selection too. Good shopping experience.

My second time to Five Star today. Highly recommend. It's a pokey little shop in between levels at Marion shopping centre so not something you'd readily notice, but service is impressive. Staff are friendly, efficient and very quick! I had my jeans altered in just over half an hour for only $15 and alterations were done well. Timing was perfect as I had a bit more shopping to do. They even had them ready before the time they gave. Thank you!

Absolutely delicious! Ding Hao is the real deal when it comes to Yum Cha. The restaurant is always packed - be sure to book especially on a Sunday. Staff are usually very busy, but not busy enough to tend to you. The food is well presented and very tasty. I thoroughly enjoy the experience here every time.

There have been times I haven't had a printer at home and I go to Office Works to get things printed or scanned. The staff at the Keswick site are excellent. I often don't have much time when I run in and they are consistently efficient and fast. The documents are always printed well and it's very cheap too. Highly recommend this Office Works!
