Hmmmmmmmmmm\nWent here to celebrate my 40th birthday with my aunt , uncle & new wife , and was seriously disappointed . The quality of the food is excellent , however the selection was not as vast or as good as I had expected it to be. I have bland tastes so it wasn't quite for me.\n\nThere is plenty of curried dishes and seafood. \n\nHowever I recommend the Nutella ice-cream

i have to say, the mac n cheese was VERY good! and the brussel sprouts were ok, i've cooked better in my microwave.\n\nour first let-down...no one was there. we were one of 3 couples eating there (7pm), and by 8:15, we were the only people, on a saturday night. it felt almost like we were in a scottsdale version of The Shining. \nthe portions are painfully small, which can be a good thing with so many overweight folks bobbing along these days...but...the prices! \n\nwhich shouldn't really be a complaint. we knew what we were getting into when we made reservations here, however, i was not at all impressed with my food. paying over the top prices for small portions at Sanctuary was well worth it...at cielo, not so much. \n\nthere was only one fish dish on the whole menu, and they were out of that...odd because like i said, only 3 other couples were dining. they must have caught only 3 fish for the night. we had to get the scallops without the fancy bacon (which were tasty...not the bacon, the scallops) and the ravioli things...my dish. small and within seconds, cold and gummy. our eating partner got a pizza and it was way too bready and had virtually no red sauce. \n\nthe service was good and the decor was outstanding. but i'm just so miffed about a) running out of fish when there was virtually no one else in there and b) the price to food to taste ratio. i know fancy places don't care, but we won't be back....or i won't. my wife liked hers and she keeps the credit card.

I was a bit disappointed with this place. I came here last year loving it and I decided to try this place again. Did anyone notice that the sushi roll rice was premade? They had stacks of these made.....granted there are only 2 sushi chefs, but still how long does it take to put some rice on seaweed? The fish was dry, the rolls all tasted the same and there was just TOO much sauce. The only saving grace was the sakitini. The mango flavored sakitini was too strong for me, but the rasberry one was good. I wanted to like it, but I just wasn't all that in to it.

Aabsolutely love this place! Price is good, food is great, and service is fun and helpful. \n\nMy girlfriend and I frequent here quite often and have always been pleased with the quality of the food. \n\nI highly recommend ordering off of the grill. It's fun, fresh, entertaining , and extremely tasty. \n\nABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE! Once again, fun environment, tasty food, great sushi, good prices, and sweet service. Make sure to see Cindy next time you''re in. :)

No way, Oyshi sushi gets 4 stars and sushi factory only 3?... GTF outta here. I had both oyshi and sushi factory all you can eat. Sushi factory wins hands down. Their fish is way higher in quality. Just sit at the sushi bar and when you get your nigiris especially the salmon dam.. they give you some real thick slices. the rolls are more on point than oyshi. Oyshi wants everything super fatty and oily. Sushi factory mixes great taste w/ their raw fish. I'd eat here again anyday. Server was on point. Ask for 2 mochis, she just might give it to you.

This is a pretty average coffee chain. They have been sweeping Pittsburgh by storm.\n Nothing too special about it, I dropped in because the weather was horrible and I couldn't make it to meeting on time so I used their internet to join the meeting online.\n\nI have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The latte really hit the spot and the foam on top was to perfection!\nI have to agree with another review that Big Dog is a block over and is a far better experience, a lot more flavor and you don't get that coffee chain atmosphere that I felt while I was at Peets.\nOn the whole, I enjoyed Peets. Good coffee, friendly staff and clean facility that is not too crowded in the morning rush and convenient in Southside... to be fair it wasn't too crowded today, but like I said, weather was horrible and may have been keeping people away.

If you are a sushi connoisseur this is not the place for you. Cheap sushi, no frills, lots of roll choices. The service was clearly lacking as no one manned the hostess stand, the wait staff was spread thin and by one waitress's own admission the kitchen staff was short also. That being said, my food came out fast and everyone was very nice. This is likely a place the neighborhood goes to as there were plenty of high schoolers there as well as some college kids. If you want basic, one step up from grocery store sushi, this place will do. $21.00 for 12 pieces of sushi and a spicy tuna roll. I still wouldn't return.

I was introduced to Retro Bakery many years ago. Since that time, their cupcakes have become a staple at any birthday gathering, family event, or anything really! I love introducing newbies to the excitement of Retro Bakery. Their flavor combinations are creative, fun and not to mention the most delicious in town! I have tried other cupcake places in the Las Vegas valley and Retro wins by a buttercream landslide!!!

Dr. Turner is very knowledgeable, has a great \"bedside-manner\" and actually listens to what you have to say. She was very thorough and provided great advice/care. To top it off, I had a small payment snafu with her billing company and Dr. Turner went above and beyond in order to get it resolved. She is a person of great integrity in my humble opinion.

I finally came here and waited the 1.5 hours for a table because coworkers have been telling me about this place for the last three years. The pizza was very good. I especially liked the one with pistachios. I don't recommend ordering a pizza with meat on it because the meat will overpower all of the other flavors on the pie. \n\nI'm glad I finally tried this place, but I don't think I would wait that long for it again.\n\nProps to the guy with the Mario mustache behind the counter.

This place used to be AWESOME. It is sad to see a place go down hill. I ordered a corned beef sandwich and a Lox sandwich to go. When getting to my destination the corned beef sandwich had a lot less meat on it then it did the last time which in itself was still less then it used to be and the price is higher. The rye bread is not your traditional rye anymore either, now it is a thicker softer kind of bread almost like a thick sourdiough so they can put less meat on the sandwich and still try to make it look good. The Lox sandwich was very disappointing. For the price they charge there should be enough lox to cover the bagel, instead there were only 3 very small pieces. \n\nThis is NOT the place to go for lox and bagel. You can get a MUCH better lox and bagel for a cheaper price at Einstien bagels or Sunrise Cafe on the East side and they will not try and rip you off. \n\nI can understand raising your prices because things are more expensive, but to raise the price and lower the quality/quantity of your sandwiches that is just wrong. Its hard enough to find a good deli in this town and just when you thought you had one, they make changes and it goes down hill. \n\nThis place used to offer a really good Lox Platter and now it is only a sandwich and once you add lettuce, tomatoe, and onion on your bagel, you cannot even taste the lox. Higher prices, lower quality, equals less customers. It is sad to have to lower the quaility of my review for this place. I guess I have to resort to visiting other places which have lower prices and real rye bread, and who are not as stingy with the lox as this place has become. I wish I did not have to write this, but it is what it is...

OVERALL RATING:\nService: 3\nDecor: 4\nFood: 3\nDog-friendly: NA\n--------------------------------------------------\nPlus (+):\nTasting samples are nice a big:) The decor is cute. The door's sign says \"thanks a bundt\":) \n\nMinus (-):\nWow, the service is S-LO-W here...but they're really friendly. Prices are high. Maybe they use too much frosting...\n--------------------------------------------------\nI've heard that they use Dunkin Hines cake mix for their bundt cakes. If this is true, at least they use it well. These cakes were very moist and I liked the flavors. I had the Red Velvet and Carrot Cake. \n\nDon't think I'll go rushing back, but I can recommend it to cupcake lovers as a good alternative.

MY love for Big Lots has diminished over the last year or so. I am finding that hardcore bargains just aren't what they used to be. Yeah, this particular location is neat, clean, and uncluttered compared to others in the PHX area. However, you come to expect to pay dirt cheap prices for stuff here, and this just isn't the case as it once was. I see 30 dollar flower pots, $25 yard art gizmos, etc. etc. I still buy a few staples here- CD cases and covers, some toiletries, assorted food items, but its becoming less and less each visit.

AMBIANCE:\n\nEclectic, casual and fun. It starts with the stuffed moose head over the receptionist's station dubbed, \"Moose-olini\" and spreads to the walls filled with tiny airline-sized bottles of booze, pictures of celebrities and anything else one can think of except the kitchen sink. Who knows everything that is stuck in the ceiling. I was almost afraid to look. One thing I am sure of--it's all been there for a very long time.\n\nENTERTAINMENT:\n\nA tiny, wizened, ancient little man who is seemingly dwarfed by his big accordion. He comes around every half hour for about two minutes, plays very badly (in a \"it's so bad it's great\" sort of way), panders shamelessly for tips and then disappears (probably to get oxygen and rebuild his strength for another two minute appearance a half hour later).\n\nRef: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/yNVcnSaMSrTmjJBMrHTy9w?select=jJQ-WqpZTRkjYGSqFF-nyQ\n\nCONCEPT:\n\nCharge double the value for run-of-the-mill Italian meals that are posted on a board and then try to compensate with free vino by the carafe. In a similar vein to Olive Garden, you can stuff yourself with unlimited garlic bread too. If you drink enough wine and chow down on the garlic bread, you'll enjoy the accordion serenades, go away full, and really not care about the quality of the meal and the price tag. If you're with good friends, it probably will be an enjoyable experience.\n\nOUR EXPERIENCE:\n\nWe walked over to this little hole in the wall before a Penn and Teller show based on our concierge's recommendation. We drank the \"free\" wine, ate a lot of garlic bread, sang a lot of \"Happy Birthday's\" to various folks in the room, listened to the little old man butcher \"O Sole Mio\", and ate pasta dishes. I ordered linguini chopped clams in a white sauce for $26.95. The other dishes were all priced in the mid-twenties. My clams and linguini were of the $11.95 caliber. The wine was simply bad.\n\nIn summary, Battista's must have a very good working concept to stay in business for over 3 decades. That concept just doesn't work for me. I'd even recommend the place for those in a Monty Pythonish mood and looking for \"something completely different.\" If this is the case, just go in with the right expectations which shouldn't be centered around their culinary excellence.\n\nBattista's was the only recommendation by our excellent concierge that I don't heartily endorse.

Wow. Me; a Bartender with a Friday night off to spend with my family? During Restaurant Week? Uncanny!\n\nNot interested in who's participating in RW, I just want a nice place to go. Enter the OpenTable app on my BB on Wednesday night.\n\nResult: Otto's. 8:30PM on Friday evening. Reservation confirmed.\n\n...Fast forward to Friday evening; we arrive on a frigid January night to Otto's; on Mineral Point Rd yet tucked away like a precious pearl. I tell the hostess reservation for 3 under the last name C_____ and she seats us right away. An old establishment with hella charm and warmth.\n\nOur waitress arrives with a genuine smile and an equally appealing nature. Her name is Linda L.\n\nLinda converses with us a bit before taking our drink orders. We have a bit in common and talk about more than a few things throughout the course of our courses.\n\nMy party was there eating and talking for about 2-hours with not a lot of traffic on our floor. Although we'll be back soon, I'd love to come here when Jack Frost is outta town; say like June...\n\nHere's the rundown of our dinner enjoyment that evening:\n\nA Bombay Sapphire Martini-Up w/ a Twist\nA Mount Gay Rum & Cola\nA glass of G/Marquis Philips Shiraz\nA glass of Pierre Ferrand Cognac\n2 Sprites \n\n1 Order of The Duck w/ a Cesar Salad w/ Anchovies\n1 Order of Petite Steak (Med. Well) & Shrimp w/ Cesar Salad, no anchovies, no croutons\n1 Order of Ricotta Chicken\n1 Coffee\n\nTotal: $108. Not bad.\n\nSo. Go to Otto's on Mineral Pt Rd on the West side of Madison. \nSeriously. Go here. Eat. Drink. Be Merry and don't forget to tip your wait person at least 20%!\n\nBuen Provecho...

I don't see what all the hype is about, it's a sandwich. Perhaps I'm confused or ordering 'the original' was a mistake. It was OK, definitely not a life changing OMG this is amazing moment. If I happen to be at PH again I don't even know that I would opt for this place over the Roasted Chicken Salad Sandwich at the PBR bar which is right next store, now that thing is memorable.\n\nIt's average, kinda reminded me of Quiznos.....so if you like that, this is your place, you'll just pay more for it.

I wanted to give this show 2.5 stars, Yelp needs to let us rate half points! \n\nThe performers are amazing and their talent alone earns the show 2.5 stars. I think they should work on their choreography, when they rip off their top the act of \"unveiling\" isn't sexy, more like random. I think the nude part of the show would have been hotter as more of a strip tease act combined with cirque-esque performances. But that's not really what peeved me about the show. The show had WAY too much dialogue period and the dialogue was terrible! Watching the show reminded me of when I was in grade school and I had just learned a few swear words and I wanted to drop an F-bomb in every sentence. Puleeeeaassse! I know this was their attempt on making the show funny but it missed the mark and made it totally tacky. There were some amusing parts of the show, they had a comedian lady who did a liquor filled breast implants skit that made me and pretty much everyone else laugh out loud but most of the time she was more cheese than funny. I wouldn't recommend you see this show unless you get a student discount, or one of those deals at the half off tickets place. Shell out a few more dollars and see Cirque's \"O\" show!

yes they have so much stuff. all that stuff though is overpriced. they need some sort of discount service where every $100 you spend there you get $10 off of a purchase. maybe they already have something like this (i doubt it), but i'm not going to set foot in that place again til i have to, which will be once a week come this fall.

I made a reservation for a business dinner through Open Table on Sunday June 5th for 8:30pm. At 7:35pm I received a call that they had technical difficulties in the kitchen and that they were only able to serve cold appetizers, salads and desserts. So we opted to go to a different restaurant(which was quite a task).\nHence my surprise when I got an e-mail from Open Table a day later that informed me that Mastro's reported me as a \"no show\".\nYou inform me 55 minutes before my reservation time that you are unable to fulfill my request and then have the nerve to report me as a \"no show\"?\nNeedless to say that I won't come back and will take my business elsewhere in the future.

Whenever I go to Vegas, I look at websites like Hotels.com or Hotwire.com for the best deals. Luckily, Hotwire gave me a great deal on the Signature, even though it was New Year's weekend.\n\nNow, I usually only ever book at 4-star hotels and above, so this was perfect. Having never stayed here before, I was excited to see all the great reviews and was really expecting to get a lot from this place.\n\nPros:\n- within walking distance of the Strip\n- huge rooms and bathrooms\n- accessible to some of the best restaurants on the Strip\n- fast and friendly service\n\nCons:\nOnly two...\n- walkway to get from the further tower from the strip through the MGM and onto Las Vegas Blvd is a hike!\n- This lady has been to the Trump Hotel before, and for the price, we should have stayed at the Trump!\n\nGood review all-around on the hotel, but there are definitely better, newer, (and cheaper) places to stay!

It's almost like a garage sale.. There are some decent things to buy in there but you just have to search for them. Some parts are a cheaper version of what top of the line bike stores offer. And, their mechanics aren't the most qualified. A chain that was applied by one of their master mechanics screwed up a XTR rear derailuer and cassette. Pretty much a glorified Walmart. Not good and will never go back.

I came here bc of ADAM RICHMAN.\n\nAdam's been pretty spot on on some of his food tasting adventures. Theres this one fried catfish locale in OK that was GREAT. Ike's in SF was amazing. so of course I had to go try his places in vegas. \n\nI've only ever had fried crawfish before in tn, so this was my first live crawfish place. Everybody said the spiciness was spicy, and as a non spicy eater, I took the mild (a little bit spicy). However, it wasn't spicy to me at all. so i think everything is a lil overhyped. The crawfish was Good! It was dfeinitely an experience. they give you these cute little bibs to put on, and the crawfish come out in a plastic bag for each customer. You order by the lb, and 1 lb/per customer is definitely enough. On the other hand, the CORN is great!!! omg i love the corn that comes in with the bag. its really great. \n\nI only give it 4/5 stars bc the crawfish were good, but not AMAZING. I will have to say adam richman, this was a bit of a disappointment but I think I went in with super high expectations. (i also like everything fried, literally everything i eat i love it fried, so the fact that it wasn't fried i think deducted 0.5 stars)\n\nBut in the end, its a good place! i would definitely recommend. I've been to new orleans before and had authentic seafood there, and it had a very similar authentic taste.\n\n(Also surprised at the cheapness of the bill)

New owners. Strange having San Diego microbrews when there are fabulous locally-brewed microbrews in PHX. \n\nThe caramel-chipotle wings were kind of a sticky mess, heavy on the caramel but the chipotle or punch of spice was missing. It was described as their \"famous (infamous?)\" caramel-chipotle sauce and I certainly can't all it anything but a mouthful of sticky sweet caramel with no zing -- and at $8 for 8, I'd expected something much better.\n\nThe other option was \"tavern sauce\" which is a mixture of buffalo sauce and BBQ sauce -- ugh! I didn't try it but I have at other bars and its a disgusting combination. \n\nPlease, have a basic \"Hot Buffalo Sauce\" option, nail it and leave the other sauces as options. A sports bar HAS to get buffalo wings down and these were anything but. \n\nTried the calamari which was advertised with a orange-lime something sauce (can't remember) but was nothing more than ketchup and mayonnaise. Also, it was sold as topped with cilantro, mint and basil whereas when they arrived at our table, cold, there were a couple sprinkles of tired and brown basil. Largely a cold, tentacled disaster with Utah-style ring sauce and something formerly green sprinkled on top.\n\nThe menu looks fantastic. Clearly it was written by a professional but the end product doesn't quite match the delicious descriptions. \n\nMy suggestions are to dumb down the menu to match the product that comes out of the kitchen or make damned sure you run quality control before you present your patrons with their food.\n\nAnd San Diego microbrews in the land of Four Peaks, San Tan, Nimbus and now Fate brewery? That's akin to serving mild Pace picante sauce out of a central Phoenix taco truck.\n\nPlease. I want to love this place as it's in my neighborhood but you have to get your shizzle together. \n\nPlease please please. Get the wings down, get the calamari HOT and as described in the menu and if you're going to showcase microbrews from San Diego, tell me more than \"well, there's a dark, I think there is an IPA and uhh some other ones\"\n\nYou take care of those things and McDowell mountain ranch will take care of your bar. Work on QC because SG 101 is too close to Four Peaks, Twin Peaks and a host of other bars to send food like that out.

I really need to learn how to complain. Sitting eating something badly cooked, mumbling 'it's fine, thanks' when asked, and then coming on here to moan is less than ideal, I know...\n\nBut anyway, here I am. I really had high hopes for The Saint. It had been recommended by a friend, the web site and menu looked lovely, and the restaurant itself is attractive - dark wood, candles, and an open fire. When Jason suggested we go there, I was excited.\n\nThe menu is limited at lunchtime to soup, omelettes, eggs benedict and a couple of open sandwiches. You'd think that would make it easy to get things right. But my mushroom and blue cheese omelette was a masterclass in how not to do it. It was overcooked to the point where the outside was blackened, there was barely any cheese or mushroom, and it came with a pile of dry rocket leaves that were probably fresh last Tuesday. \n\nBeing me, I chewed my way through it, paid, and then whinged once we got outside - and bought a cheese roll in Kay's bar when we stopped in for a pint on the way home.

The room I had was nice especially for the price. Casino was nice as well. Couple of things that were not great was the distance from the garage to reception and wifi is not free. If you are a motorcycle rider, lock up your bags and empty your bike completely. Bags got broken into, thankfully nothing was in them.

My husband and I stayed at Palace Station in Las Vegas from Feb 21- Feb 24, 2013. We've stayed there once before, about 5 years ago. We were pleased with our experience then, which is why we decided to stay again. \n\nWe arrived around 10am and were happy to be able to check into our room early, around 12. That was very much appreciated. The bell desk was helpful in getting us shuttle schedules and storing our luggage until we could check in. They were friendly and welcoming. I was very happy with the bell desk service our entire stay. \n\nWe had no issues Thursday or Friday. However, after returning to the hotel around 1am Friday night/Saturday morning, we were rudely awoken by banging noises at 7am on Saturday morning. We attempted to continue sleeping, having no idea what the noise was. Around 8am, we heard talking and applause from the room next door, and then someone began talking into a microphone. I could hear every word she said as if she was in our room, and I had earplugs in. We peeked into the hall and saw there was a SEMINAR going on in the hotel room next to us. I imagine the repeated banging noise was the door frame slamming against the hook or deadbolt that was placed so that the door would not lock as people came in.\n\nBy that point, we were already very much awake. We had planned on having breakfast at Palace Station and doing a little gambling before going out for the day. After our rude awakening, we decided to have breakfast and do our gambling elsewhere. I waited to complain, as I was pretty angry and wanted to be able to do so in a composed manner.\n\nWhen we returned to the hotel, I made my complaint with the front desk. I was told that there was nothing that could be done, and I should have called that morning. I was not apologized to even once. I understand that I could have called that morning and had them send someone up, but by the time we even realized what was going on to even be able to complain, we were already wide awake. Furthermore, I feel very strongly that we should not have had to call, because it is ridiculous to rent out a hotel room to a corporation to use for a seminar. And the room had a sign out in front of it on Palace Station letterhead with the seminar schedule, so I'd imagine that the management was well aware of what the room would be used for. In fact, the front desk person was able to tell me that another seminar was scheduled for the next morning as well, in that same room. \n\nThere is absolutely no reason that a paying customer should have to be disturbed by a business function occurring in an adjoining room. Business functions should occur in business facilities: conference rooms and banquet areas that are separate from customer rooms.\n\nIn addition, I was incredibly displeased at the service I received in the Grand Cafe. We went there before leaving the next morning, and after asking for a couple minutes to decide on my order, did not see our server again for over 15 minutes, when I found someone else to go find her. We were on a schedule, due to having to get to the airport, and though I had had plenty of time when we got there, I ended up having to take my food to go due to the length of time that passed before our server came back to take our order. When the server returned, we did not even get so much as an apology for her disappearing act. That is poor customer service.

Oh holy cow!! This place is the best. Better than Fogo IMHO. Went here to celebrate my new job with my husband. The cold bar was delicious, though I didn't love the roasted garlic as it wasn't soft as I had hoped. The meat was top notch, as expected. The top sirloin, first cut, is the best. The beef rib was soft, flavorful, and had just enough fat and salt to be perfect!!! The service was also fantastic. We will be back when we are there next.

The Wicked Spoon is a buffet at the Cosmopolitan hotel in Las Vegas. 'Nuff said, right? Not even close!\n\nBackground: A friend of mine and I were flying to Vegas with a room booked at the Cosmo. As we neared landing, the flight staff came around handing out these little packets. Packets we thought, originally, were packets of gum or something. Turns out that they were boxes of coupons to places in the Cosmo! Amazing luck, right? \n \nOne of the coupons was for a discount to the Wicked Spoon, so we went for lunch while we waited for the rest of our crew to arrive. I saw that it was a buffet and quickly lowered my expectations; granted, Vegas is known for amazing buffets. None the less, I prepared to eat what I needed, and get out. I pilled several plates with an assortment of, beautifully presented, foods. First bite - oh my God. I had the eggs benedict over pulled beef or something. I was totally blown away! This experience was repeated with each new item I tasted and I quickly surpassed the realm of \"satisfaction\" and entered the world of \"ugghhh... I'm sooo full!\"\n\nSummary: the Wicked Spoon is, to date, the best buffet I've been to on the Las Vegas strip - including the village at Paris (by far). If you're in the area and are hungry, do yourself a favor and stop in!

This used to be one of my favorite Thai restaurants until my most recent experience a couple months ago...\n\nDO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE EVER EVER EVER ORDER THE FISH CAKES APPETIZER.\n\nPlease take my advice and you will thank me later. \n\nThese fish cakes sounded so delicious on the menu but when they came out, it was a whole different story... when I think of fish cakes, crab cakes, etc, I think of fluffy, flavorful, tender, puffy, etc. These things were small, rubbery, highly compacted little discs of who knows what. They looked disgusting and the taste was one hundred times worse than the appearance. They tasted like what I imagine Pledge tastes like. Yes the cleaning solution, Pledge. What we were brought was so highly unacceptable to be served ANYWHERE. It was like something that would be featured on an episode of Kitchen Nightmares. I lost all respect for this restaurant after this experience...even though my entree tasted fine. I don't think i will be back.

I hadn't been to Dilworth Neighborhood Grille in years before last night... I had a pretty good time, that being said...\n\nFirst, they offer (or offered last night, due to the charity event, not sure which) a complimentary valet service... The lack of parking situation hasn't gotten any better since the last time I'd been, so that's a welcome change... From what I remember, the lot is pretty small so if there was a relatively decent crowd or the Big Chill (are they even open anymore?) was also having an event, it was a nightmare... \n\nThey haven't changed the interior at all, but honestly, why would you? There's a little foyer and you can choose to go right down the stairs or to the right directly into a bar and there's a room that can be reserved a little further back past the bar on the first floor as well... It's a nice size, I'm sure you can hire it out for a party and whatnot... (I think I heard someone say they did that last night...) The bar is basic... Lots of wood, seating and televisions... Decent spacing, so that's a plus... The stairs leading to the downstairs dining area has railings on the left side, right side and down the middle which is awesome for when you're wearing platform stilettos and drinking... You can never have too many handrails... (Trust me; I've seen some things... Use the help when it's offered, ladies... lol)\n\nThe food was tasty... I enjoyed the little Chick-Fil-A-like nugget situations and the barbeque sauce was good... The pepperoni pizza was hot and fresh (perfect), but I could not get the blasted thing cut to pick up the pieces properly! lol It took a little work, but it was worth it... I'm a big tomato fan and their sauce tastes like a thickened tomato soup to me, so that was right up my alley... Not a lot of additional seasonings, but it was a good eat... The crust could use a little something, though... Maybe some garlic or parmesan? I couldn't have the meatballs (April 1st seems so far away...), but the boyfriend said they were just okay... We both enjoyed the spinach dip... If there were any artichokes in there, I straight missed them... It stood on its own, though... Creamy, but not too creamy... If it had a little bit of red or black pepper, I think it would have been perfect... We had the Goose Island IPA and the 312 for beers and they were yummy...\n\nOverall, it was nifty and I'll probably head back when they have specials or something...

Hands down, this place is the best! Hard to find, sure, but well with the effort. Their jerkies are fresh and delicious! The only one I didn't care for was the regular Thai style, only because it was so salty. \n\nMy son loves the salmon and my husband always gets the Teriyaki hot. And. It's. HOT.\n\nMy favorite is the regular teriyaki that it's sweet, soft and chewy. Perfection! I'm an unwilling vegetarian but this place will always break me.\n\nI would marry it if I could. True story.

Happy Hour Spot! As long as you can get a chair, the drink specials are wonderful. $2 draft beers, not your normal Mill Ave selection. 1/2 Signature Martinis and 1/2 most of the appetizers! Some where between the Shrimp appetizer and the 3 drafts my bill was only $12. Wow, was not excepting that.

***US Airways out of Phoenix International Airport is decent; they have lots of flights and the boarding process is fairly quick; planes seem to arrive and depart on time as well; the waiting area feels quite crowded though and the Wi-Fi, while free, was not that great; there are not many food options past the security checkpoint at this terminal, but there are several high-end and contemporary restaurants located in the atrium before security***\n\nI am not sure what the parking situation is at the Phoenix International Airport, but I imagine parking here is expensive like other airports.

I should have known when I told my friends I was staying here and their faces looked like they had drunk spoiled milk that we had made a bad selection. \n\nFirst of all, it's a tough hotel to navigate. You might be staying on the 4th floor, but only on some poorly labeled tower. The elevators don't clearly indicate where they go, so I had the experience of going to the 4th floor and seeing that my room was on a different 4th floor. Cool. The elevator to get to my room was tucked behind the meeting rooms. Cooler.\n\nThe valet put the wrong number ticket on our car, so it took them 20 minutes to get it. Coolest.\n\nMy favorite part of the stay was when I used my key to get into my room, then went to the vending machine to get water and came back to find my key stopped working. First of all, what? Second of all, when I went downstairs (which is quite a walk from the room) to get this straightened out, they informed me I couldn't get back into my room without my ID. When I explained my ID was in the room, they basically told me I was out of luck. Eventually, the person who had the room under their name had to come and yell at them so I could get back in.\n\nTheir buffet is terrible. Everything tastes the same. They have very strict security (lots of chains) to get into the buffet, which is weird because no one would want to sneak in after tasting the food. We got the buffet for free because of the aforementioned key snafu and it was still awful. They should have paid us to eat there. They probably give out comps to it all the time because no one would pay to eat there. And they serve Pepsi. Eugh.\n\nThe shower worked, though.

I should have read reviews before I went here but I wanted something that was cheaper than Yummy Grill & Sushi...but I guess I should have just went there, I'm Vietnamese and of course I've had a lot of Chinese food in my time and this is one of the WORST Chinese places I've ever been to, I mean HOW can you do Chinese food wrong? Even the dirtiest of the dirtiest places in NYC are 100x better than this place, the Lo Mein noodles were disgusting...the only thing I liked was that I could order online but even when I get there, they had to question my order because I guess their website is flawed...oh well!

I was very happy with the veterinarian here I was just disappointed in the appointment I made. I called on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving so I could get a micro-chip put in my dogs. Well, they said come on in at around 5:15PM to get it done. I showed up only to be told that they didn't have any left and they haven't had any in a couple of days. \nI was a bit upset since I had been striking out finding a new vet in my new neighborhood. However, I needed my puppies booster shots anyways.\nI waited longer than I wanted to but, oh well, this seems to be the norm at doctors offices be it human or pet.\nThe vet tech and the vet were both super friendly and explained everything in complete detail to me. Very sympathetic and attentive to my needs. I think the tech had told the vet my rantings of the previous vet experience I had. \n\nAll in all, I am going to go back. The vet did assure me that I would be able to get the chip in both of my dogs without paying visit fees since I already paid them when I went the day they told me to. Thankfully!

*UPDATE*\n\nI went in to grab a red velvet cupcake, same as before, DRY, think about biting into a brand new dry sponge, that's exactly the way the cake felt in my mouth and not only that but I looked in the mirror and my mouth and teeth were all red....eeeewwww......No I did not eat the flower on top, this was from the dye added to the cake...somebody doesn't know how to make TRUE Red Velvet.\n\nI'll never go back here!\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nI Just noticed this tiny place peeking out of the strip mall today.\n\nIt's a really cute little Cake Cafe, my first clue was the name.\nUpon entering it smelled sweet, inviting comfy chairs, a few bistro tables a wall of gift items and A smiling host.\n\nI asked about the cupcakes in the display case, there were so many to choose from. Every fruit flavor and chocolate combo you can think of, only butter-cream frosting here though, No Whip Cream which is my Favorite. \n\nI decided on a Red Velvet and a Carrot Cake both with the cream cheese frosting. (see pics)\n\nThey were good. Nothing spectacular or out of this world, more ordinary and bit dry. I definitely blow her carrot cake outta the water, outta the desert for that matter. \nBut for $2 each it was a nice end to my earlier lunch.\n\nI don't know that I'll be rushing back, but if I'm desperate for dessert and am low on cash I can stop here and get my needs met.

Big View offers so much variety it's a great place when you have diverse tastes amongst your group or family to appease! Something for everyone & all delish! Excellent value, we often get two meals out of our entrees. Dinner & lunch for tomorrow? Hey, I'm down with that! The beef brisket stroganoff is wow...SO good & the shrimp & grits- fabulous & unique from other versions I've tasted. \n\nAlso, we met with Tina in the Big View's Bakery regarding our wedding cake. She was super helpful & kind and made the process pleasant and simple!

I remember when I first saw the sign displaying \"RAW Organic Food & Juice,\" before they opened their doors, and I was so excited to have a vegan eatery within walking distance of my home. I'm not even a raw vegan, but the idea still excited me!\n\nI walked in... No one spoke. I looked at their overhead menu boards and saw things like chicken and salmon, but no indication of them being faux. So I asked the girl behind the counter about vegan items and she had NO clue what I was talking about. She called some other lady from the back. Lady #2 came out and advised that she could make a bowl or wrap vegan with lentils, black beans, or quinoa as their protein options. Oh. So this is not a raw vegan place. That is my fault for assuming. They had fresh juices, some raw veggies (i.e. carrots & spinach), and that's about the end of their raw line. I was so disgusted that I left without buying anything that day.\n\nI finally went back this weekend (months later) and tried the Fiesta Bowl. Per their online menu, it's $6 for a brown rice bowl. It comes with tomatoes, but I requested to get spinach instead of tomatoes (since I don't eat tomatoes). I was charged $8 as a base price for this $6 bowl. \n\nThe bowl was large and contained hot, cooked brown rice, black beans, and corn, raw onions, raw spinach, avocado, and a red basil dressing/sauce. It was ok. The red basil dressing/sauce (vegan) was pretty tasty, but overall it was just an ok meal. Nothing special or memorable about it, and I definitely wouldn't go even 2 steps out of my way for it. \n\nThey no longer had the fresh juice machines. I heard another customer inquiring about them as I was leaving. They directed her to some refrigerated, bottled juices. This business looks like it may be on its last leg. I personally still feel jaded by their name. Branding your business as RAW Food & Juice, but having minimal raw options? With a name like that, you know you're going to attract raw foodist and veg*ns. It just seems shady. AND they overcharged me! Not a fan. Won't return.

I was so excited to try this place and unfortunately I didn't like it. \n\nCame here tonight with my sister. Walked in and it's cute, clean, bright and decorated really nicely. But the menus on the wall are so difficult to read! The print is too small. We were about the 5th group in line to order and waited about 20 minutes to get to the counter {it is an order at the counter and seat yourself kind of place- which I like} quite a long wait- but no worries it's new. \n\nWe ordered sweet potato fries, artichoke and spinach dip and a pear and Gorgonzola salad. The girls taking the orders were nice enough just slow moving. \n\nWe take our sit and within 30 seconds our salad and fries are out. First thing I think - ok so not fresh food. Boy was I right! \n\nSoggy fries with a very weird almost tasteless dip. I'm gonna go ahead and say those fries were frozen. They went from warm to cold in about two minutes. \n\nThe salad was especially not impressive. The pear was mushy and bruised, cheap tasteless \"Gorgonzola\", a few grapes, and carrots. Dressing was ok but for $9 this was way overpriced. No cheese barely and also small, very small. \n\nThe spinach artichoke dip actually grossed me out. Comes with pita bread, carrots, cucumbers and celery. The veggies were dripping with water and again- bruised cucumber. The dip was horrible- warm not hot and just not a good taste. \n\nIt's hard to write this review for a place that I want to like so badly but the quality of food isn't there. For a restaurant that advertises fresh they may want to stop reheating their food. \n\n1 star for decor and cleanliness. Sorry Charlie I won't be back.

This place is solid for lunch. Yes, it is a total hole in the wall, but that is part of the charm! Right? I went with regulars, who ordered for me, so perhaps the menu may be hit or miss. What I can tell you is that my meal, what ever it was, was great. It was a noodle/BBQ pork dish. And the deep fried spring rolls were fantastic. And guess what was even better? My whole meal, which was more than I could eat, was $4.50! I will be back.

A perfect place for lunch. If you are a burger lover, you will love this place. Ordered their fine tasting Chicago burger, it was very good, I love it. Although its a little pricey but you would surely be satisfied by its taste.\n\nBut the service here was very slow. Lazy staff, they cant deliver the right order and they always shout on each other. They don't have proper manners.

Extremely frustrating. I placed an order worth over $100 for delivery. When we received the food, we were missing an entree, I called and spent over 30 minutes with them because they were arguin that it was there, when in fact it wasn't. In the time they wasted on the phone, they could've dropped another one off. They also didn't bother to call and tell us that the lunch option only comes with vegetable soup. Even though online asks you to order from 11 options.\nUnfortunately, the food was decent, but with the horrible customer service they provided I could never recommend this to a friend! When we asked about the pad Thai chicken having only two small pieces in it they said \"we're in recession, chicken is expensive\"

Just ok because my bar for New Orleans food is quite insurmountable! But I give honest reviews. Whoever is in the kitchen can season food like nobody's business! It is great food. Seafood was not fresh though and they really do not have Bread Pudding on the menu! That tells me that the chef is not from Louisiana at all. Prices are too high, way to high! Jambalaya for $20! Ridiculous really. A pot of that for 10 people cost $20. But if you want great atmosphere and good food that is just seasoned well, go. Drinks are reasonable and service is fantastic.

i'm super in love with this place! A buddy of mine lives in the area and I hadn't been yet, so we rode our bikes on over. It's a HUMONGOUS place with a seafood bar, regular bar food and a HUGE entertainment area with bean bag tossing, ping pong and foosball tables. I'm super excited to come back here as I can ride my bike inside and just hang!

Ah Vegas, We were at the Flamingo this weekend. The building was like an IceBox all weekend. Since I test a/c units everyday my guess is it was 60 degrees in the whole building. When at the ProLabs Inspectors conference and Picking up some CEs at a Plumbing class. I heard something dripping, looked over to see water running down a wall in the Reno room near an electrical outlet. The elevators gave every rider and I, the shared concern and worry that we might not make it out alive. There were noises of rattling and unusual elevator behavior. Looked up to see the ceiling of the elevator vibrating back and forth. A lot of this place needs some serious upgrades. While heading to our room we were met with high sale pushy vendors trying to sell time shares. While gambling one night was met with another dubious caractor who asured me, he could help me make thousands at the crap table. Yeh right dude. The remodeling of another building across the way started early and woke us up at 6:am. The last morning the fire alarm went off somewhere at 5:30am. When we called the operator she didn't have a clue then checked with security who told here it was a test..........for an hour? Finally I check my bill on the peace of CR$P TV in our room to find out they over charged me. They corrected my bill. All and All the convention was great, I learned a great deal and appreciate ProLabs sponsorship. Perhaps they should find a new location next time. We had some great meals at the big mall down the street one of the best was at Buddy Vs. We couldn't eat in our hotel because neither my wife nor I thought about bringing a sweat shirt to stay warm in Vegas!

My son and I wanted a quick cafe meal and stoped by this restaurant. I ordered the prime rib my son ordered a sandwich. I ordered my prime rib rare and told the waitress that if the did not have rare to let me know and I would order something else. The sandwich came out fine the prime rib was well done. I asked to speak to the manager who came out and was completely rude to me. I then ordered the chicken parmigian and waited 20 minutes for that to come out. When it came out the chicken was burnt, which I felt was done on purpose. By this point I just wanted to leave, since nothing was comped I went to pay for the dinner and the cook was standing at the counter he asked me how was dinner and I told him it was horrible. He then began to insult me. This restaurant clealy does care about it's customers and the food is horrible. Will never return.

We were at Hank's last month and I can say the service and quality of the food is superb! Try the fillet Mignon on the bone, its really memorable. The wine list is extensive and well priced. The impressive part of our meal was the service, it shows that servers are well trained and management cares about their restaurant.

I read the reviews about watery yogurt, but I couldn't believe it until I saw it. Seriously, the stuff coming out of the machines here is more like flavored ice than actual yogurt. I don't even know that they should call it yogurt - I can't believe that there is any actual dairy in there.\nOn top of that, the selection of flavors is just meh.\nI love frozen yogurt, and I didn't even finish my small bowl of plain tart and peach. \nIs the weird texture/consistency/wateriness because of their 'no high fructose corn syrup' policy? I can't imagine so...yogurtland, etc serve sugar-free yogurts that are sweetened with Stevia or Splenda, and they still taste like yogurt....\nWhatever it is, even dessert desperation will not drive me back to Josie's!

Just ordered some food for delivery, and the person on the phone and the delivery person were both wonderful. Courteous, professional, welcoming.\n\nSadly, the food was surprisingly bad. I ordered rib tips and brisket, and requested spicy sauce. I'm 99% sure I got mild sauce by mistake, but if somehow I did receive the 'spicy' sauce, then I'm offended by what they call 'spicy.' Either way, the sauce was dull in all aspects - not sweet enough, not salty enough, not packing any other flavors well enough. Besides the sauce being bad, it was poured over my meats in extreme excess, vastly overcompensating for their poor preparation. My food was DRENCHED in sauce, so much that I could hardly distinguish the meat from the soupy red mess.\n\nThe rib tips had decent texture and were cooked satisfactorily, not much to complain about there, and definitely nothing to praise. But the brisket was somewhat like soggy cardboard. I was only able to eat about 3 rib tips and 2 pieces of brisket before I actually threw the rest of it away. I really hate wasting food, but there was just no chance that I could actually eat any more of this. The beans were ok - somewhat odd, but I can't put my finger on exactly why. I don't think I can directly criticize the beans, and I'll probably finish eating them as leftovers tomorrow.\n\nNonetheless, I could tell that somebody probably knew something in their kitchen, and I could probably find something else on the menu that I would really enjoy. If I'm ever in a jam for some reason, I'll give them another try, and just avoid all of the items I ordered today.

I absolutely HATE this Walmart!!!! The only reason that I come here is to try to pick up an item here or there since it's on my way home from work. However, several times I've come out empty handed because they are miraculously sold out of what ever I wanted. The management here is horrible since they can't seem to keep their shelves properly stocked. Who is in charge of ordering? It all boils down to the manager not running a tight ship. If this only happened occasionally, it would be one thing, but every time that I'm there? Also, the service desk needs additional help. One time when I went to pick up an online \"ship to store\" item, just one clerk was working the returns desk - and he had a line. He told me to go to the photo area and someone would be there. So after waiting and waiting - I checked the print-out of my order confirmation, got the store phone number, and CALLED the mgr from my cell phone - having seen his picture & name on a plaque on the wall. Lucky for him, a clerk finally showed up before he answered. I will go to the store in Indian Trail, NC (1'st choice) or the Arboretum at Pineville-Matthews & Providence Rds. (2'nd choice.) They seem to be managed much better, and rarely do they not have what I'm looking for. Enter this Walmart at your own risk - but understand that you have a big chance that whatever you went for is out of stock. Read (and believe!) the others' reviews about this store not being properly stocked.

As a vegetarian, it is not easy to just stop and eat anywhere. I spend my life eating protein bars and things like that for lunch. I was out with a coworker and we stopped here and lo and behold, this place offers veggie dogs. I got a New York dog with mustard, onions ans Srirachi sauce, The diner itself is also a little retro, so it is a nice atmosphere,

Kaizen always has prompt and friendly service and amazing food! There are at least 10 rolls on their menu that I love, and I'm pretty picky with which fish I will and won't eat. Their All-You-Can-Eat is a really good deal considering that it includes appetizers, specialty rolls, sashimi, dessert, and anything else that would ever be on a Japanese menu. Lunch prices for AYCE go until 4, and they also do it on weekends. Kaizen is my absolute favorite place to eat in Vegas!

I used to live in Tucson (at least one of the Costco's there is reportedly one of the nation's busiest) and I never felt like the shopping experience there was quite as inconvenient as it is at this location. It's a Costco, a warehouse, I get it, but it's too small.\n\nI won't even attempt to go there on a weekend because the checkout lines stretch far into the store! The first time i went there I asked another poor soul (also stuck in a excessively long line) if that was normal, she managed only to nod. It's a question as old as the hills, but they in world would you not have every single available checkout open-for-business on the busiest days of the week?\n\nIt could just be my perception, but it seems like they have less stock than other locations.

I just started attending the Arizona International Buddhist Meditation Center after a friend recommended I come with him. Meetings are Wednesday nights at 7pm on Temple Street (the center may be difficult to find as it is located in a residential house). There is parking available in front the house as well as a church parking lot across the street. \n\nCushions are provided for your comfort and the meditation session lasts about 45 minutes. Shane will ring a bell and talk you through the first 5 to 10 minutes. Afterwards, silence commences and you try not to think of anything at all. Once the meditation session ends, Shane leads a short discussion session to allow for questions and for the resident monk to read a prayer aloud.\n\nI feel relaxed and at peace when I come here. Everyone is kind and welcoming, no judgement! If you are looking for a group environment and friendly community to meditate with, this is the perfect spot in Arizona!

I took my family to this hotel for Thanksgiving. I arrived at 2 and wasn't able to check in due to someone was still on our room and they still had to clean it. Was told come back in 2 hours. Took my family bowling downstairs to kill time came back upstairs to check in to say sorry we don't hold rooms and we gave your room away. \nThe person that told me this was hiding behind the office door wasn't going to come out and talk to me. So now my family want's to check in and gave away our room finally they gave us another view room. WHen I went downstairs to complain to the manager i Told him this is not acceptable and I believe someone needs to applogize to me for doing this. NOpe he didn't care at all never said sorry. I was pissed said would not come back again. The room didn't have the air working either. We decided to leave a day early since room wasn't acceptable to find out my sons Angel Pillow Pet pillow as stollen from the room when they cleaned it. Who does this? Soo not right . Customer service sucked.

So Weekends are usually hubbys choice and he decided on Rock Bottom.\n\nI don't mind coming here, I really like their Mac and Cheese.\nYou can get it with or without chicken.........years ago the chicken was this really thin shaved peppered chicken and I thought it was awful so I have since always ordered without chicken.\n\nHowever today Hubby chose the mac and chicken and I was surprised that now they use real chunks of shredded chicken breast!! YAY! \nWhat and improvement!! It was really good! (see pics)\n. \n\nI got the Turkey Bacon Cobb sandwich minus bacon =Layers of juicy oven-roasted turkey breast on grilled sourdough bread with sweet peppered bacon, sliced avocado, roasted tomatoes, sprouts and mixed greens. Topped with rosemary dressing and Bleu cheese crumbles (see pics)\n\nIt was better than I expected, they forgot to put avocado on it though and\nthe bread was really really good and for being grilled it wasnt over saturated with grease.\n\nThe onion rings could have been crispier but were OK.\n\nLame waitress today she was new but whatever...she sucked!!

I met a group here so the choice was not mine. The menu was a little pricey for what you received. I ordered one of the pizzas. The waiter prefaced that \"everyone should really get their own as they are personal size and not big enough for sharing\". Um, my friend wanted salad anyway, so no one to share with me, but for sharing it was 2-3 people worth anyway. Except that this was the worst, flimsiest pizza I have ever had. The so-called crust was thin and soggy and then the crust was burned black on purpose, which was too much. So I ate one piece and brought home the leftovers to my husband who will eat anything. He looked at me and said, this is the worst pizza ever without me even saying anything to him. \n\nI will say though, awesome, attentive waiter. Our drinks were never empty. That is all I can say positive about this place. Not returning.

Looking for a breakfast spot in Pittsburgh without a huge wait we stumbled upon this little place.\n\nNo huge line outside, and a few tables open when we walked in. Got a great cup of coffee to start out and some wonderful warm bread. Ordered the fritata. It was so good. The hot sausage was delicious with the peppers and egg. This is a great little spot right on Penn Ave, not getting much play. I'm almost sorry for telling people about it. If you go get the fritata!

3.5\nThis place was better then I thought it would be. The kids and I shared a 14 inch pie. We opted for the butter garlic crust and it was decent. \n\nThe pizza dough was good, sauce, cheese and meat were all a little sparse but the flavor were good....and it was $6 bucks for 3 of us to eat. \n\nThe girls next to me had some sandwhiches and they looked good too.

Good food not great but good. My girlfriend and I had nacho's to start. The nachos were very fresh and filling. Then we both had the fish taco's wich were good. If the soft taco shell was cooked I think it would have made a world of difference . But the flavor of the fish inside was really good. The plate came with 2 taco's wich we both Could not finish. Needless to say I had a fish taco's for lunch.

When this place first opened - I don't want to think about how many years ago - it was a relatively \"upscale\" place to go for lunch. We went there for lunch, and occasionally dinner. The food was always great. \n\nWithin a few years the food was... fine. So we stopped going. Every now and then we'd go to the bar - it was in the neighborhood and all. And the dance floor could be fun, and if the DJ was ok that night, you could have a good time. \n\nI hadn't been there in at least 6 years, but the other night I was back on that side of town and was in a crowd of folks who \"still wanted to do something\" but they weren't willing to really drive more than 5 minutes. (They considered this totally reasonable by the way. How in the world did I ever get out???) So once folks started talking about where the nearest Denny's was, or how there was a NEW Village Inn they could try - I volunteered Lagerfields. It took a few minutes - but they were convinced. \n\nGood things about Lagerfields - 1) Full menu until 10pm. After 10 you can still get deserts and most of their appetizers. In this part of town that's big. 2) Because they are a restaurant during the day, it's never hard to find a table. Well, that and because the crowds just aren't packing it in over there... 3) It wasn't a bad time. There was a decent cover band the night we went. Between sets they played some muzak that was pretty cool for the crowd - we sang along to a few good 80's tunes together. \n\nSo, is this your destination location? Heck no. But, if you're ever in the area, and you have a group of friends that you just want to sit and talk with while in a bar setting, it's not the worse option in the area. \n\nAnd it beats the heck out of Village Inn.

I suppose there are both pros and cons in having a pretty solid Mexican restaurant right up the road from your home. The obvious pro being the accessibility to great food and drink (generally Dos Equis or Modelo for me), followed swiftly by the obvious con of un-doing your exercise routine for the day. \n\nBut in any case, I generally enjoyed this restaurant with the exception of cost. In the grand scheme of things, it isn't necessarily pricey. It is generally comparable to other Mexican restaurants. For me, if I'm looking for a quick, around-the-corner Mexican restaurant- this is definitely the place to be. If I'm looking to penny-pinch, I'd drive a few minutes down WT Harris towards the university and hit up Zapatas (my absolute fan favorite). \n\nI generally liked every other aspect of this establishment. The atmosphere and d\u00e9cor were set perfectly for a Mexican restaurant. Good ambiance. The food was well prepared and was pretty delectable. Beer was flowing. The service was spot on. What more can you ask for really? \n\nThere were specials here, which most looked appealing. \n\nDefinitely worth a try!

I've given this location a try many times and it always disappoints. The food is not fresh and it doesn't taste good. Every once in a while, I will get the urge to have a Western Bacon Cheeseburger and I'll have to drop by to get one....however, I always leave this particular location regretting my decision to do so.\n\nUnfortunately, in Scottsdale, there aren't any other choices for Carl's Jr nearby.\n\nReturn Factor - 15%

Great authentic Japanese restaurant. Came here with a party of 6 for a dinner reservation at 6PM. Be prepared to spend a minimum of 2 hours here at the restaurant.\n\nI highly recommend doing the course meal. Every dish was perfection.\n\nOn an odd note, the bathroom has a forest theme with a tree in there. Really quite pretty.

I came here today thinking about getting a Betta fish and a small aquarium with filter ( a gentle filter, for strong filters overpower our sweet Betta friend). The betta all (all of them!) had shredded tails and were very sad looking. Three or four of the little containers were filled with big green slimy masses, which I took for dead bettas that had been overtaken with fungi?? Of course, the tale of a betta is a sad tale, kept as they are by pet stores in those tiny little plastic cups - that alone is criminal. But I thought to myself, \"Hey, here are these little poor betta fish in pet stores and I'm in a position to give one of them a much better home/life.\" I read up on them ahead of time so I wouldn't be making an impulse purchase and so that I could create a nice habitat for my new little friend. One of the things I read was \"beware the shredded tail\" because it indicates an unhealthy fish. So, prepared with this knowledge and more, I walk into this particular PetSmart, only to see a bunch of lethargic lonely betta, all of whom have sad little shredded tails. Honestly, it made me decide against getting one at all. I just can't support the betta fish industry. It made me think of the movie The Cove, except on a much smaller scale. Poor little betta fish...

i feel compelled to write a review given how incredibly awesome this lounge is. believe me, i don't want anyone else there, but place is truly incredible. first... the music is at some balanced volume where it's heard but it never causes you to talk over it. second... the drinks are just magical. my special lady had the eastern drop, which she adored. my negroni was the best outside the Petrossian Bar, perhaps better. third, the snacky foods were just right to go with drinks but didn't fill you up for a nice dinner ahead. finally, the views from this lounge were just magical,as we felt that we floated above the chaos of the strip.\n\nSTAY AWAY!!!!

The establishment is gorgeous! Very colorful and clean. The women's restrooms are clean as well. The food was average. Which made me sad because I was expecting the food to match the decor. I ordered the carne asada with rice and beans. The rice and beans were very good. Nice flavor and not over cooked. The carne, was bland. There was no flavor, literally. I have eaten plenty of carne and I'm pretty sure this is not what it is supposed to taste like. That being said, the mariachi's were a nice touch and our server was attentive and professional. I would come back one more time to try another dish and a margarita. I also tried a bite or two of my mother's plate, chicken mole. I thought it was tasty, but my mom thought it was too sweet. The sopapilla was okay, not that it was bad. I like my sopapilla with confectioners sugar and honey only. It tasted like they added some extra ingredients.

It's all right. Typical bar that's not-that-good-but-tries-to-make-up-for-it-with-scantily-clad-women joint. Think Library or Hooters, maybe Heart Attack Grill with the exception of that it's a grill, obviously. Food is mediocre, beer is pretty much the same as you can get in any other bar, so go if you are a lonely guy who likes to look at girls, basically.

Chad mentioned a couple of years ago that they should do something about the design... Well, they are finally doing so as the design was a nightmare. Phil Mickelson and his agent Steve Loy have purchased the club and it is being redesigned. Will be renamed too: McDowell Mountain Golf Club is the working title. Supposed to open again in October of 2011. Anything done to the course will be a blessing!

Should be a 1.5 Stars (F+)\n\nWent to watch some Sunday football, only TV playing my team was in the back bar. (Way back!) out of the 12 + TVs in the place you would think they could display a little diversity. The service was horrible!!! The worst service I've experienced in a few years. The poor service wasn't limited to our table either. A gentlemen at the bar got a burger minus the actual burger. Fries, bun, lettuce, tomato, no meat! I have no clue how the dish made it out of the kitchen. Our drink order took a good 15 minuets and our server forgot half of our orders. We ordered a few munchies which also took far too long. We had to request water, napkins, and silverwear. While our food sat waiting. Throughout our meal we never saw a manager to discuss our frustrations. \n\nThe food was average. Weirderedchips and salsa, poratoe skins, calamari, chicken quesadilla. The chips were stale, salsa similar to store bought. Potatoe skins were poor. The calamari gets a B. The chicken quesadilla gets an A however. \n\nAll in all we left very disapointed and will not be returning due to unacceptable service.

The Pad Thai was a 6.5/10. \nGOOD: Perfect consistency..its not dry, no food coloring, you can taste the tamarind sweetness, and they used the right size of noodles. \nBAD: Lacking the chillies! A real Thai chef/cook can make your PhadThai mild, medium or spicy--kinda like a salsa...not just a sweet noodle. Also it needs a little of cilantro & more bean sprout. Oh, and they put shredded carrots and purple cabbage on the side.\n\nTom Kha Ga 6.0/10\nToo watery, needs a bit more coconut milk, and sourness. not a single stalk of lemon grass nor galangal\n\nIt has been my experience here in the South, the short time I've been here, ..that Asian ( Especially w/ Thai, Japanese..Vietnamese) food are served with much modification. I understand the need to please non-Asian cultures, however, we are not showing the real Thai dishes, omitting the chillies in Thai Food is simply not an authentic Thai Food anymore. But then again, some people can not tell the difference because they have never had the authentic ones. \n\n\nAmbience was pretty though.

I have been here twice for the food and wasn't impressed either time. I wouldn't suggest this place to anyone.

What a treat to have such good dim sum. The variety is great, the food is tasty and reasonable in price. We were in Hong Kong last year and they have stopped serving from carts. It's nice to see that the tradition has not been lost in the US. Stand out items would include any of the dumplings. I would avoid the congee though. Usually restaurant congee is fantastic, this was the same as you can make at home.\n\nI'm normally a taco shop only kind of guy when I go home to Arizona, but I would definitely spend some calories here.

The review is retro as I was reminded recently just how bitter I was about Grand Lux. We went there TWICE in our weekend trip and, for the life of me, I cannot fathom why. Vegas is the land of seafood buffets and supposedly *good* buffets in general. Yet, somehow, we ended up in Grand Lux. TWICE. So bitter. \n\nThe food was ... well, it was Grand Lux. It wasn't horrific, but it wasn't anything that you would remember or even think about a day later. Also, since the portions are unnecessarily huge (and, I assure you, you are paying for every ounce of it), we had leftovers so we jokingly asked the waiter if we could put it in the Grand Lux fridge. He said sure and that we could come back and get it later. Total fake-out.\n\nWe came back the next day and asked a different waiter for our food. He looked confused and told us that wasn't allowed at all (health violation?). So, I ask, First Waiter, why would you trick a bunch of tourists with promises of potential leftovers? That's just wrong. And mean. And I don't like Grand Lux. Go eat at a buffet. I heard the one at Rio was good, but I wouldn't know, because I was eating at Grand Lux *sob*

Truly underwhelmed here. We came for the meatballs, which we had read were fantastic. They were by far the low point of the meal. Very soft. No crust on the outside and very very bland. The marinara sauce was similarly bland. No spice to it at all. So the spaghetti and meatballs really a disappointment. The chicken portion of the dish was very nice but it was once again paired with the bland marinara. Service was fine but the ambiance suffered due to a very large (25 person) party that was just loud and there was other seating that they could have put us at. I just feel that there has to be a better Italian restaurant experience out there.

Went here for breakfast twice during a 2 day stay in Montreal. The food was absolutely fantastic and the ingredients were very fresh. Everything was arranged on the plate with many different components each adding their own flavor and contribution to the overall meal. \n\nI would definitely go to this place again if I happen to find myself in this great city.

The frozen yogurt was good. The service is what you would expect when you leave teenagers to run the store. Theyre on their cell phones texting away and all their buddies are hanging out there.

Possibly the worst bar service I've ever received... My boyfriend and I came in here last night to grab a cocktail while we were waiting for a spot at the bar at brio to open up. The usual bartender Will wasn't here but we sat down anyways. 5 minutes later after watching the bartender hit on this poor girl he finally came over to us. He approached us as if we were a burden, an inconvenience to him. He put two cocktail menus in front of us and the happy hour specials. I asked him if they still had the champagne happy hour for girls he rolled his eyes shook his head, laughed and walked away. My boyfriend called out he wanted a Guinness. 13 minutes later (yes I timed it) my boyfriend was finished w his beer and I still wasn't able to order my cocktail. I told him to make me his favorite specialty cocktail that was on the happy hour list. He made me what's called a \"naked lunch\" 1oz of sake, aperol, vodka, line juice and coke. When I saw him pouring all the alcohol I turned to my boyfriend laughed and said \"well I guess your getting lucky tonight!\" The bartender looked at me and said, \"this isn't all booze it's not that strong\" handed me the cocktail and asked if we were going to eat we said no but thank you. His reply \"well we have tables available, our dining room is gorgeous.\" That was my cue he really didn't want us sitting at his bar. We asked for the check and realized he didn't charge is the happy hour price for my cocktail, when I asked about this he laughed and walked away. I paid full price (not a huge deal but it's the principle of the matter) and we left. He yelled out after us that we had change. \n\nWhen I asked the hostess what his name was she didn't give us any info just asked if everything was ok. Hopefully I can return for dinner when will is bartending and ill be able to update this review to a better exp.
