It's a solid place for Italian food with decent wine list. \n\nI had the Saltinbocca, which was pretty good. My mom got the lamb and gave me a piece since she couldn't finish. We split a few tiramisu for dessert and they were delicious. Service was great. | en | 69 | came fam dinner sister brother law headed town holidays solid place italian food decent wine list saltinbocca pretty good mom got lamb gave piece since could finish split tiramisu dessert delicious service great | 33 |
0 | I really wanted to love this restaurant. It's local and has a nice atmosphere (except for the paper on top of the table cloth....my 8 year old even said, \"this paper is unpleasant.\") \n\nIt was my 72 year old mother-in-law's birthday. I stopped in on my way to pick my son up from school to check out the restaurant and menu. When I went in I wondered if they were open as nobody was around. Finally I got the attention of the bar tender who gave me a paper menu to take along and talked up the owners and food as truly authentic Italian.\n\nI arrived before my husband, who was bringing our son, mother-in-law and father-in-law (who is in a wheelchair). The hostess was very nice and set up a table that was easy to access/room for the wheelchair. The restaurant was busy which included at least two large parties of 8 plus in the dinning room. We sat down and waited ....waters....waited...oh you need menus.....waited and waited....drink order...waited and waited...drinks came out hand carried one or two at a time...ugh.\n\nThe waitress was pleasant but seemed to be taking care of most of the tables even though there seemed to be plenty of other staff around. Anyway, the special dinner item was kangaroo. None of us felt like going there....is kangaroo an \"authentic Italian\" dish? \n\nWe ordered the Anitpaso Italiano to start which was very good, but a really tiny plate for the price. The bread basket was a complimentary thin, short little bread for our table of 5. My husband also ordered a bowl of minestrone. The soup was bland and overpowered by the taste of the overcooked broccoli in the soup. Never had Minestrone with broccoli (and peas).\n\nMy father-in-law had the Costolette D'Agnello alla Griglia (lamb chops) accompanied by the \"fresh\" vegetable of the day. He ate the lamb chops not the veggies. The veggies were awful and strange. It's like they were boiled and overcooked (cabbage, potato, zucchini & carrot) except the carrot was undercooked and hard.\n\nMy mother-in-law had the Spaghetti alla Carbonara. She ate it. Didn't complain about it, but it looked heavy (too thick) and beige.\n\nI had the Pappardelle Marie Monti (spinach pasta, Scallops & porcini mushrooms in an \"imported\" light cherry tomato sauce). Bland, oily and the scallops would have been nice with a sear on each side.\n\nMy husband and son split the Pollo al Marsala...which the menu says is pan seared. The chicken was almost certainly boiled with like a mushroom, butter gravy added afterward. No marsala flavor. This also came with the awful and strange \"fresh\" vegetable of the day.\n\nThe service was painfully slow for everything even after the bigger parties had cleared out. No offer for a second glass of wine, and refills on soft drinks was next to impossible as the waitress had no support (buss staff, etc.). We had dirty dinner plates even while we ate our little cupcake I brought to put a candle in for grandma's birthday. Good thing too, because we were not offered dessert. I did manage to get a coffee, which was brought out black (no spoon or cream). There was sugar on the table from earlier and when I asked for cream...\"oh, you need cream\"....stirred the cream in with one of the forks I didn't use from dinner. \n\nAs an afterthought the waitress brought a couple of fresh plates and forks for our cupcakes, but it was too little too late. The check was brought over and we never saw the waitress again. Guess it was a good thing we paid cash and didn't need change. We got up to leave (not a fast moving group) and there was not any staff waitress, hostess, bartender who said goodbye, thank you, have a good night. In fact I thought this was so strange, I yelled back into the restaurant goodbye, your welcome....still not one staff member turned their head to acknowledge me.\n\nNot going back...what a shame...I REALLY wanted to like this place. | en | 668 | really wanted love restaurant local nice atmosphere except paper top table cloth year old even said paper year old birthday stopped way pick son school check restaurant menu went wondered open nobody around finally got attention bar tender gave paper menu take along talked owners food truly authentic arrived husband bringing son wheelchair hostess nice set table easy wheelchair restaurant busy included least two large parties plus dinning room sat waited waters waited oh need menus waited waited drink order waited waited drinks came hand carried one two time waitress pleasant seemed taking care tables even though seemed plenty staff around anyway special dinner item kangaroo none us felt like going kangaroo authentic dish ordered anitpaso italiano start good really tiny plate price bread basket complimentary thin short little bread table husband also ordered bowl minestrone soup bland overpowered taste overcooked broccoli soup never minestrone broccoli peas costolette alla griglia lamb chops accompanied vegetable day ate lamb chops veggies veggies awful strange like boiled overcooked cabbage potato zucchini carrot except carrot undercooked spaghetti alla carbonara ate complain looked heavy thick pappardelle marie monti spinach pasta scallops porcini mushrooms light cherry tomato sauce bland oily scallops would nice sear husband son split pollo al marsala menu says pan seared chicken almost certainly boiled like mushroom butter gravy added afterward marsala flavor also came awful strange vegetable service painfully slow everything even bigger parties cleared offer second glass wine refills soft drinks next impossible waitress support buss staff dirty dinner plates even ate little cupcake brought put candle grandma birthday good thing offered dessert manage get coffee brought black spoon cream sugar table earlier asked cream oh need stirred cream one forks use dinner afterthought waitress brought couple fresh plates forks cupcakes little late check brought never saw waitress guess good thing paid cash need change got leave fast moving group staff waitress hostess bartender said goodbye thank good night fact thought strange yelled back restaurant goodbye welcome still one staff member turned head acknowledge going back shame really wanted like place | 340 |
1 | I really wanted to like this place, as it just would be so nice to find good Italian food in the Phoenix area, and it's close to home. But I was overall very disappointed in the food. The only thing I liked, honestly, was the bread and the wine. \n\nWe had the prosciutto fresh mozzarella dish and it was greasy, bland, salty and just bad. Our main dishes were the spaghetti carbonara, and it was such an Americanized \"past with alfredo sauce\" version of it. Very cheesey and creamy and way overpowering smoked pancetta. It was truly awful. And at $16 or $18 a plate, hardly worth it and far from what traditional pasta carbonara should be. I'm not sure why restaurants use a cheesy alfredo sauce for carbonara, when it should be egg used for the consistency, not gobs of cheesy sauce. Bleh!\n\nThe atmosphere, wine and bread were good, but I can get that at home. Was sorely disappointed and felt the regret of spending $80 on a totally mediocre to bad experience with the food.\n\nI have yet to find good Italian food in the Phoenix area.

2 | Decent food mostly. Nothing spectacular. Scallops were gritty which is pretty off-putting . Service was not good, the waitress seemed to take issue with just about any request and forgot items on several occasions. If the service were better I'd consider returning since the location is nice, but I can spent my money better elsewhere. | en | 55 | decent food mostly nothing spectacular scallops gritty pretty service good waitress seemed take issue request forgot items several occasions service better consider returning since location nice spent money better elsewhere | 30 |
4 | My husband and I had dinner there last night for the first time. We live pretty close by and was hoping for a good experience so we could frequent this place often. It was way above our expectations. I am an italian food stob, so it better be good or I won't go back. Our pasta dishes were outstanding and service very good. The restaurant was very busy but the hostess got us a table at the bar. Will definitely become a regular. | en | 83 | husband dinner last night first time live pretty close hoping good experience could frequent place often way expectations italian food stob better good wo go back pasta dishes outstanding service good restaurant busy hostess got us table bar definitely become regular | 41 |
2 | We dropped in last night for happy hour after checking out the farmer's market in Downtown Chandler. Happy hour goes until 6pm (half priced apps and pizzas!!), and since it was pretty close to that time, we were given menus and waited on right away. We decided on the margherita pizza and bocconcini al prosciutto (read mozzarella sticks wrapped in proscuitto topped with mushrooms and breadcrumbs, not fried). \n\nSoon after ordering, we were brought fresh slices of bread and some balsamic vinegar. After mixing the balsamic with the olive oil that was already at the table, we quickly devoured most of the bread.\n\nIt didn't take too long for the food to come. The \"cheese sticks\" came out first. Different from anything I've had before, but they were quite tasty...we fought over the mushrooms that topped the 3 cheese sticks. The pizza shortly followed, and it was big enough for 3 people to share (not bad for $5)! We agreed that the pizza was good, but nothing too special. It had a crushed tomato sauce with scattered fresh basil, smothered in mozzarella cheese on a thin crust and cooked in a brick oven. It was a great pizza for the price; if I go back, I'd like to try one of their other pizzas.\n\nThe bill was less than $20 for the pizza, appetizer, a glass of wine and a glass of beer. Not to mention we were pretty full. The atmosphere is cozy and romantic, with low lighting. The service was pretty good, although it took forever to get our check- I was quickly becoming inpatient. I'm not sure if I'd rush back there, but if you're in the area around happy hour time I'd suggest giving it a shot! | en | 289 | dropped last night happy hour checking farmer market downtown chandler happy hour goes half priced apps pizzas since pretty close time given menus waited right away decided margherita pizza bocconcini al prosciutto read mozzarella sticks wrapped proscuitto topped mushrooms breadcrumbs fried ordering brought fresh slices bread balsamic vinegar mixing balsamic olive oil already table quickly devoured take long food come cheese came first different anything quite tasty fought mushrooms topped cheese sticks pizza shortly followed big enough people share bad agreed pizza good nothing special crushed tomato sauce scattered fresh basil smothered mozzarella cheese thin crust cooked brick oven great pizza price go back like try one bill less pizza appetizer glass wine glass beer mention pretty full atmosphere cozy romantic low lighting service pretty good although took forever get quickly becoming inpatient sure rush back area around happy hour time suggest giving shot | 144 |
1 | I'll be blunt, my experience here was in a word, disappointing. The service was subpar at best, and their pizza just plain sucks. I had their \"signature\" margarita (sp) pizza which can be best described as a soggy mess of oily cheese on an even soggier crust. That was preceded by a salad that had canned pears and easily a full cup of stale walnuts dumped on it. I hate writing bad reviews, so I'm being generous with two stars. | en | 80 | blunt experience word disappointing service subpar best pizza plain sucks margarita sp pizza best described soggy mess oily cheese even soggier crust preceded salad canned pears easily full cup stale walnuts dumped hate writing bad reviews generous two stars | 39 |
2 | Want to give more stars but.... The food is good, not great. The restaurant is nice and in an ideal location. The service was fine. It took a long time to get our meals.\nThe bruschetta was bland- anemic tomatoes, not enough basil or garlic. We tried two different veal dishes. The saltimbocca was tough and boring. The involutini was really tasty.\nUnlike other yelpers, we liked the authentic feel of the paper on the tables. The place was busy for a Wednesday night and they had live music. We will try happy hour or lunch specials next time. We don't like to spend that kind of money for food that is just \"good\". | en | 112 | want give stars food good great restaurant nice ideal location service fine took long time get bruschetta anemic tomatoes enough basil garlic tried two different veal dishes saltimbocca tough boring involutini really yelpers liked authentic feel paper tables place busy wednesday night live music try happy hour lunch specials next time like spend kind money food | 56 |
3 | Can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review for La Stalla Cucina Rustica.\n\nIf you're looking for delicious Italian food that doesn't resemble the corporate garbage that's strewn about the area, then look no further! \n\nSeriously, though, the food here reminds me of my Southern Italian Grandmother's cooking . . . And that's damn near impossible to compete with. \n\nA quaint little spot for a date night in Downtown Chandler, yet affordable. Very charming d\u00e9cor inside. Yes, the paper table coverings are annoying and scream \"MACARONI GRILL!\", but that's the least of your worries when you come to a place like this. \n\nEvery time we go here, we always have the same server. Feeling like an idiot because I can't remember her name! She always recommends great wine for us, and is even generous enough to let us taste before committing to a bottle or glass. \n\nThe last time I was in five or so months ago, found out that LSCR started making their own bread. Better than whatever they had before! Always comes out fresh, warm and fluffy. Have to get that thing out of sight after a piece it's that good. \n\nThe few times we've been here we've tried the Ravioli Di Patate Dolci Giapponesi Al Gorgonzola, Risotto Agli Scampi and Costolette D'Agnello alla Griglia, and a Manicotti that was on special. \n\nEverything was excellent; however, our absolute favorite was the first thing I listed: Japanese sweet potato ravioli in a Gorgonzola cheese cream sauce. WOW! \n\nDefinitely need a nap after this rich dish. Still haven't gotten around to recreating it at home. The sweet potato blended surprisingly well with something as rich as Gorgonzola. \n\nIf you want to do dessert, try the Chocolate Souffle. Hello, dark chocolate heaven! Make sure you give your server a heads up, as it takes 15 minutes for this one. Patience! \n\nGreat selection of after dinner drinks too. Think grappa and homemade limoncello!\n\nThe almond flavored grappa was awesome. Brought back memories of visiting family in Varrazze 7 years ago and being introduced to it by my Nana's cousin after a ridiculously indulgent meal. Yeah, smooth move dude . . . extra potent alcohol for a bunch of 18-20 year old WILD college kids! \n\nCheck it out. You won't be disappointed. And if you are, you're probably an Olive Garden fan. :) | en | 391 | ca believe taken long write review la stalla cucina looking delicious italian food resemble corporate garbage strewn area look though food reminds southern italian grandmother cooking damn near impossible compete quaint little spot date night downtown chandler yet affordable charming inside yes paper table coverings annoying scream macaroni grill least worries come place like time go always server feeling like idiot ca remember name always recommends great wine us even generous enough let us taste committing bottle glass last time five months ago found lscr started making bread better whatever always comes fresh warm fluffy get thing sight piece good times tried ravioli di patate dolci giapponesi al gorgonzola risotto agli scampi costolette alla griglia manicotti special excellent however absolute favorite first thing listed japanese sweet potato ravioli gorgonzola cheese cream sauce wow need nap rich dish still gotten around recreating home sweet potato blended surprisingly well something rich gorgonzola want dessert try chocolate souffle hello dark chocolate heaven make sure give server heads takes minutes one patience selection dinner drinks think grappa homemade limoncello almond flavored grappa awesome brought back memories visiting family varrazze years ago introduced nana cousin ridiculously indulgent meal yeah smooth move dude extra potent alcohol bunch year old wild college kids wo disappointed probably olive garden fan | 212 |
2 | Ordered the chicken parm and a veal dish.\n\nFood was good but not great. The chicken parm came out warm versus hot. No real comments on the veal dish.\n\nThe veggies that came with both were pretty decent.\n\nNot sure this place will make it into my rotation, but I haven't ruled out going back. | en | 52 | ordered chicken parm veal good great chicken parm came warm versus hot real comments veal veggies came pretty sure place make rotation ruled going back | 25 |

1 | If the service wouldn't have so poor it would have been hilarious! Despite our server's arrival with great enthusiasm, it went down hill from there.He even wanted to let us know that was not your usual pasta place with regular spaghetti etc... How's that for an insult to your customers? I like basic pasta places and I am capable of discerning between types of food. Our food arrived cold and we had to send all entrees back to the kitchen. Our server was nowhere to be found and we had to request another server to come to our table and take the food back. It appears there is no bus staff or management as well! Our server seemed overwhelmed! Our salad plates were not cleared before entrees came out and he had to set down our entrees on a table next to us to clear the dirty plates. Speaking of dirty plates my sisters appetizer plate was dirty when it arrived as was her fork with residual food. I requested another glass of wine and he took my empty glass and went to attend to another table and set my dirty glass on their table while he took an order from them! My sister asked for decaf coffee and a dessert menu and she was told there was no decaf! He said I can try and make you some if you want!!! Are you kidding me??? In a restaurant of this caliber no coffee made?? We asked to share two desserts for four people. Perhaps they were low on forks and spoons because we got two spoons for all of us to share. We are a close family but I want my own cutlery when dining out. At one point we thought we might have been a reality TV show because it was so ridiculous. We love fine dining and were so looking forward to going here! \nWe came in from California for this! My son and daughter have both been servers and we are great supporters of the service industry so I would encourage La Stalla to hire some bus boys so your servers can do the job they need to do. | en | 363 | service would poor would hilarious despite server arrival great enthusiasm went hill even wanted let us know usual pasta place regular spaghetti etc insult customers like basic pasta places capable discerning types food food arrived cold send entrees back kitchen server nowhere found request another server come table take food back appears bus staff management well server seemed overwhelmed salad plates cleared entrees came set entrees table next us clear dirty plates speaking dirty plates sisters appetizer plate dirty arrived fork residual food requested another glass wine took empty glass went attend another table set dirty glass table took order sister asked decaf coffee dessert menu told decaf said try make want kidding restaurant caliber coffee made asked share two desserts four people perhaps low forks spoons got two spoons us share close family want cutlery dining one point thought might reality tv show ridiculous love fine dining looking forward going came california son daughter servers great supporters service industry would encourage la stalla hire bus boys servers job need | 170 |

2 | Really, for the price, I expected more. I had the lasagna. I'm wondering if I ordered the wrong thing, because this place has some pretty stellar reviews on here. For similar prices though, for me, the food is better at Macaroni Grill and Oregano's. Additionally I found the ambiance to be pretty stifling and the waitstaff not terribly friendly to two people who came in wearing casual clothing. | en | 68 | really price expected lasagna wondering ordered wrong thing place pretty stellar reviews similar prices though food better macaroni grill oregano additionally found ambiance pretty stifling waitstaff terribly friendly two people came wearing casual clothing | 34 |
1 | I normally don't write reviews below a 4 or if I've only visited once, but we had some of the most terrible service I've ever encountered. I brought my friend out to see chandler when she was in town and found this place through Yelp. We were seated at hi top by the bar, which was fine, because it was a busier Friday night. A waiter came over for our drink orders and then.... We got our bottle of wine but not iced teas. We asked again, knowing it was busy, but no dice (that time or the next time we asked). We then asked about the cheese plate. Our server didn't know what was on it and took ten minutes finding somebody who did. It was paltry at best for $14, but that's the nature of cheese plates. We asked about the specials and the waiter went off to find somebody who knew, again. He was gone for 30 minutes. No further service during this time. At this point we were so frustrated that we decided to leave. We asked for the check (which took 10 minutes) and then the waiter very awkwardly asked if he had done anything wrong :/ \n\nBased on that time only, I would give this place a 1. Since it was my first time and a Friday, I feel like that isn't fair. I did want to leave this review though so management is aware of some deficiencies in service. \n\nWe left, went next door to San Tan on a very busy Friday and had dinner, beers, AND iced teas and were out the door in 45 minutes. | en | 274 | normally write reviews visited terrible service ever encountered brought friend see chandler town found place yelp seated hi top bar fine busier friday night waiter came drink orders got bottle wine iced teas asked knowing busy dice time next time asked asked cheese plate server know took ten minutes finding somebody paltry best nature cheese plates asked specials waiter went find somebody knew gone minutes service time point frustrated decided leave asked check took minutes waiter awkwardly asked done anything wrong time would give place since first time friday feel like fair want leave review though management aware deficiencies service left went next door san tan busy friday dinner beers iced teas door minutes | 114 |
2 | Not too bad!! Would go back!! \n\nFirst off this place is located in downtown Chandler, which I love the area and it fits right in. It's located on buffalo street right across from San Marcos hotel. It's a small little restaurant with a warm feel. Right off the bat I was very surprised by the ambience. Staff was extremely friendly so no issues there. \n\nOn to the food. I ordered the Cavatelli Pasta with Sausage, broccoli, in a garlic sauce. While the dish was decent it didn't blow me away. It didn't meet the standards not the wow factor that the decor gave me. It left me wanting for more. Not more food as the serving was sufficient just more flavor. Prices wasn't bad as my meal was 10.00. But it was more on the bland side and the pasta itself was a little tough. I left full but not entirely satisfied. \n\nOverall I would visit again and perhaps just order a different dish as my friend had the salmon and mentioned it was delicious. | en | 175 | bad would go back place located downtown chandler love area fits right located buffalo street right across san marcos hotel small little restaurant warm feel right bat surprised ambience staff extremely friendly issues food ordered cavatelli pasta sausage broccoli garlic sauce dish decent blow away meet standards wow factor decor gave left wanting food serving sufficient flavor prices bad meal bland side pasta little tough left full entirely satisfied would visit perhaps order different dish friend salmon mentioned delicious | 79 |
0 | We love Dr Steve!\n\n--update 7/24/13--\n\nIn all the years we have been coming here we have not had a single issue, until they hired the new woman up front. I believe her name is Siri. Today took the cake, but before that a little back story. We have called for the 6mo appointment for Lily Mae for the past few weeks. Every day she answers and gives whatever excuse she can think of. Computers down, no appointments for two weeks, she is too busy right now, I have heard them all. Finally my wife gets us an appointment today at one two four zero, yes, one two four zero. Seriously, who gives the appointment time like that? Siri does, that is who. Then gives you an attitude and acts like your ignorant when you clarify. After making the appointment she asked what the appointment is for, and when she hears it is for a six month checkup (daughter is now seven months, took that long to get in) she gives my wife the third degree for getting her in late. Remember, we are only late because their have been \"no appointments, computers down, I don't have time for this right now\" for the past three weeks. \n\nSo, we get to the appointment thirty minutes early. Those with two or more kids know, its thirty minutes early or thirty minutes late, there is no happy medium. Check in and get things going. Siri (first time I have met her in person) informs me that my insurance is cancelled. I advise her that it is not cancelled, there has been an ongoing issue with my insurance and they had to remove and re-add Lily Mae as her birth date was incorrect in their systems. She gives me an attitude and tells me that I will have to pay the bill if the insurance company does not pay. I let her know, again, that they will pay the bill and I am already aware of the issue. Most would leave it at that, but not Siri. Oh no, she must seek the \"truth\"! About ten minutes later I hear her blurting out my insurance ID number. She was on the phone with my insurance company to verify my insurance before she would let us go in for our appointment. Unbelievable! So the insurance company, who has not yet been informed by my employer of the changes to the birth date (all of this transpired this week) tells her that Lily Mae is no longer on the plan (duh, I just told you all of this). She tells the agent \"thanks, I knew there was something going on, we'll put a stop to this\" and hangs up. Giving me a dirty look she calls me back up to tell me that the doctor cannot see me unless I pay for the visit. Game over, no more being nice. After giving her a piece of my mind another woman up front came out and I stopped addressing her. Within a few seconds of talking to this other woman she understood the situation and got us back on track. Siri was not having any of that and started her mouth back up, glaring, and LAUGHING at me. \n\nAt this point I was done speaking with her and informed them I would be leaving their office and would not return. As I was getting the girls things packed up and watching as Siri sat in her chair watching us and smiling as if she just did something grand I chose to stay in spite of her. She is not an accurate reflection of this practice, everyone else is great. I jump on the phone with my benefits department at work and they confirm Lily Mae is insured within a few minutes. I have NEVER had a claim not go through at their office. My kids have both went there their entire lives. To treat someone that loyal like they are the scum of the earth is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. To call a patient a liar that has been with your practice since the start and go as far as calling in benefits for a wellness checkup is far beyond excusable. My advice to Dr Gentile and the rest of the staff, get rid of this CANCER before you lose more patients. If she is here with this attitude when I come back for our nine month checkup, we will not be back.\n\nNow, to be fair, the star rating is down based solely on this person. Without her, this office is still a five star. With her here, the positives do not outweigh the negative she creates. Dr Steve and the rest of the staff were quite apologetic for her actions, but they should never have to be put in such a position.

1 | I'm sure Dr. Gentile is a fine doctor and a good person but when when my husband and I were interviewing pediatric offices I found Dr. Gentile to be annoyed by our questions about alternative shot schedules and he stated that they only follow the APA's vaccine schedule and then he proceeded to tell me what horrible things might happen to my baby should we not follow the schedule. \n\nI understand that vaccines are important but we chose a different pediatric office because we live an organic lifestyle and chose to go with a variation of Dr. Sears' shot schedule (our kiddos do get all of the shots, just more spread out), and this other office was willing to work with us. Dr. Gentile's office was just not right for us.\n\nBy the way, we chose to go with Desert Shores Pediatrics, they are great!!! | en | 144 | sure gentile fine doctor good person husband interviewing pediatric offices found gentile annoyed questions alternative shot schedules stated follow apa vaccine schedule proceeded tell horrible things might happen baby follow schedule understand vaccines important chose different pediatric office live organic lifestyle chose go variation sears shot schedule kiddos get shots spread office willing work us gentile office right way chose go desert shores pediatrics great | 65 |
4 | I was referred to Dr. Gentile by a friend and have had nothing but positive experiences with Dr. Gentile and his staff. There's a few reviews that mention misdiagnosis, while I can't comment on those because I don't know the details, there is no such thing as a perfect doctor- or one who knows absolutely everything. One child's whimper may be another child's excruciating pain.

0 | I can't agree with the other ladies who have posted their experiences. It's been awhile but the last time I did business with these guys I knew I would never go back. I took my car in to have the wheels balanced after I had purchased a set of brand new wheels and tires from the internet. When I mounted the new wheels I was getting a vibration at freeway speeds so I decided to take it to Tire Pros to have the wheels balanced. They charged me a resonable price since I did not purchase the wheels from them. When I got home I did a quick walk around the car and that's when I noticed one of my wheels had a piece of metal chipped off right at one of the holes for the lug nuts. I know it wasn't there before because they were brand new. I called Tire Pros back and told them what I found. They said to bring it back, which I did. When I got there the manager said he asked the tech about it and he said the damage was already there! The manager then said there was nothing they could do about it. =/ Nothing I dislike more than a dishonest business. If they admitted to it I would probably be able to forgive and forget but I just want others to know that they aren't the \"Pros\" their name claims to be. | en | 242 | ca agree ladies posted experiences awhile last time business guys knew would never go back took car wheels balanced purchased set brand new wheels tires internet mounted new wheels getting vibration freeway speeds decided take tire pros wheels balanced charged resonable price since purchase wheels got home quick walk around car noticed one wheels piece metal chipped right one holes lug nuts know brand new called tire pros back told found said bring back got manager said asked tech said damage already manager said nothing could nothing dislike dishonest business admitted would probably able forgive forget want others know name claims | 101 |

0 | I had a coupon for a free oil change. I took my car in and the guy at the front, I think the boss, was a real nice and professional guy. He got me set up and my car back really quick. After 10 minutes or so the mechanic told me that they have to charge me 55 dollars to do the service because my car uses a different more expensive oil. This is surprising because when I've changed it I've never had to spend more than 30 dollars. He finally lowers the price to 45 and I needed it done so I agree. Come to find out they had already drained my oil before I agreed to pay for the service. But, when it's all said and done I was talking to the boss, he explains that he buys his oil from the local dealers at 12 per quart. I said that at O'Rileys it costs like 5.30 for a quart. So either you are paying way too much for oil or just trying to make a quick buck. Either way, they are nice people, but not a place to go to for a service. | en | 196 | coupon free oil change took car guy front think boss real nice professional guy got set car back really quick minutes mechanic told charge dollars service car uses different expensive oil surprising changed never spend dollars finally lowers price needed done agree come find already drained oil agreed pay service said done talking boss explains buys oil local dealers per quart said costs like quart either paying way much oil trying make quick buck either way nice people place go service | 81 |
4 | I went to Gio's Automotive in March to get a tire rotation and oil change with inspection back in March. The shady lady running the place told me I needed to get new brakes and a transmission tune up, slapping me with a $350 estimate. I'd just gotten both my front and rear pads and rotors replaced 2 years ago. Needless to say, I didn't get the job done. There was however a squeaking sound coming from my wheels, which I suspected to be a bearing. But I'm not a mechanic. \nI decided to take my car in to someplace else to get a second opinion. After searching around, I found a deal on Amazon Local for break service at Tire Pros. I took my car in anticipating to use the voucher and get new brakes. However, the man at the counter (I think his name was Jonathan) told me to let him have the mechanics check out the car before I redeemed the voucher. After a few moments of waiting, Jon asked me why I thought I needed new brakes. I told him that I'd been told this by another repair place. He walked me out to my car, where the tire had been removed and showed me the tread on my brakes. He confirmed that I had PLENTY of time left on the brakes and that the squeaking I was hearing was indeed the bearing. He walked me back up to the counter and told me I might be able to get a refund for the voucher I'd bought if I contacted Amazon. And gave me a quote to have the bearing replaced. The cost was very reasonable. It was refreshing to have someone who was honest look after my car this way. He didn't even charge me for the guys having running the initial check. He and his team are the best! | en | 315 | went gio automotive march get tire rotation oil change inspection back march shady lady running place told needed get new brakes transmission tune slapping estimate gotten front rear pads rotors replaced years ago needless say get job done however squeaking sound coming wheels suspected bearing mechanic decided take car someplace else get second opinion searching around found deal amazon local break service tire pros took car anticipating use voucher get new brakes however man counter think name jonathan told let mechanics check car redeemed voucher moments waiting jon asked thought needed new brakes told told another repair place walked car tire removed showed tread brakes confirmed plenty time left brakes squeaking hearing indeed bearing walked back counter told might able get refund voucher bought contacted amazon gave quote bearing replaced cost reasonable refreshing someone honest look car way even charge guys running initial check team best | 146 |

3 | I love August and September. Yes ... Hatch's green chiles are in season and this Food City roasts them outside of the store during these two months. I go every weekend and buy two pounds of the mild, which I think is really medium because it does have some heat. In fact when I de-skin them, my fingers are tingling afterwards. Beware if you get the hot or extra hot, definitely wear gloves. The roasted chiles sell for $1.50/lb. That's a price increase from last year when they were only $1/lb, but it is still cheaper than most other places. I recently had Daughter#1 pick up some fresh roasted ones from a different grocer and she paid $1.99/lb. \n\nIf you go too early, before 11am, you'll have to wait. Occasionally, you may even get queued behind someone who has just ordered a whole bushel to be roasted or buys all the chiles that are in the plastic bins waiting to be sold. If you do, might as well place your order with the guy doing the roasting and tell him you will pick it up after you do some shopping inside the store. While inside the store, pick up some of the fresh flour or corn tortillas that are made onsite. I love the cute little 3 inch ones. There is also a food court with delicious entrees and on a hot summer day, you should get some fresh agua frescas, but everytime I am there I never see pina and that is my favorite fresca. Pick up some fruit or veggies in the produce department. It will probably be cheaper than other stores. Same for the meats. Interestingly, this store has some self service checkout lines, but for some reason, I find it to be slow. The scanners don't always work very well. \n\nIt's always fun to talk to some of the people waiting in line to buy the chiles. You can pick up some good recipes and tips for using them. When it gets toward the end of the season, pick up several pounds and freeze them. You'll be glad you have them come winter when it is time for tamale making. Try not to tear into your bags of chile as you drive home. There will be a very enticing aroma from the fresh roasted chiles wafting thru the car! | en | 393 | love august september yes hatch green chiles season food city roasts outside store two months go every weekend buy two pounds mild think really medium heat fact fingers tingling afterwards beware get hot extra hot definitely wear gloves roasted chiles sell price increase last year still cheaper places recently daughter pick fresh roasted ones different grocer paid go early wait occasionally may even get queued behind someone ordered whole bushel roasted buys chiles plastic bins waiting sold might well place order guy roasting tell pick shopping inside store inside store pick fresh flour corn tortillas made onsite love cute little inch ones also food court delicious entrees hot summer day get fresh agua frescas everytime never see pina favorite fresca pick fruit veggies produce department probably cheaper stores meats interestingly store self service checkout lines reason find slow scanners always work well always fun talk people waiting line buy chiles pick good recipes tips using gets toward end season pick several pounds freeze glad come winter time tamale making try tear bags chile drive home enticing aroma fresh roasted chiles wafting thru car | 183 |
2 | This feels like a lower-end store. Meats and produce are nothing spectacular. Canned goods are what they are. But one thing about this location is that they do feature a bit more ethnic food choices than you might find elsewhere. For that I give them an extra star (otherwise they'd have two).\n\nThe other two stars are for having basic stuff, and a friendly staff that tries to help. | en | 68 | feels like store meats produce nothing spectacular canned goods one thing location feature bit ethnic food choices might find elsewhere give extra star otherwise two two stars basic stuff friendly staff tries help | 33 |

2 | This restaurant is not the best in its fast, late-night, -berto, Mexican food genre, but it's just as good as anything else I've had in the 2 months I've been in Phoenix. It suffers from the same issues I keep running into down here: a little on the bland side, not many \"extras\" to spruce them up like lime wedges, cilantro, or decent sauce, and, my biggest pet peeve in the valley so far: flaccid ass burritos! Seriously, if it's not smothered on a plate it's meant to be picked up and it should be able to stand upright when held. Either pack them fuller or roll them tighter, damn!\nThat said, it has no real minuses that every other taco shop in the Valley doesn't have, thus the average rating. It primarily stands out for me because it's 24-7 and a close proximity to my house, which is to say that if you have an average taqueria that fits your hours and location already there's probably not a big reason to make a trip for this one.\nFinally, if I do go back (a certain eventuality) I will probably not be getting the fish burrito. The fish was okay, but the sauce was too much mayo and not much else. No cilantro or lime to really break it up. The boyf's carne asada was better. | en | 224 | restaurant best fast mexican food genre good anything else months phoenix suffers issues keep running little bland side many spruce like lime wedges cilantro decent sauce biggest pet peeve valley far flaccid ass burritos seriously smothered plate meant picked able stand upright held either pack fuller roll tighter damn said real minuses every taco shop valley thus average rating primarily stands close proximity house say average taqueria fits hours location already probably big reason make trip go back certain eventuality probably getting fish burrito fish okay sauce much mayo much else cilantro lime really break boyf carne asada better | 99 |

1 | Please spare me the details on other reviews. The 15-20 plus person line is NOT even CLOSE to being run through in 7 minutes. Try 20 to 30 minutes, been there, done that and bought the farm. Took the grown cotton and made my own t-shirts, had them printed with: THIS PLACE TAKES FOR- FREAKING EVER.\n\nThe staff is only \"permanently\" populated with the store manager and a couple of assistants, after that, employee faces change QUITE frequently. I do not go to this store anymore - after 4 years of going there at least 3 times a week, I had had enough of it. \n\nSubway is running, apparently, at such small margins that it cannot make things right, even when they are wrong. The last time I was wronged at this particular store- and yes, I knew the people that worked there, including the store manager, Yvette - I just washed my hands of it. Being wronged once you can brush over, being wronged several times with a total BS excuse is a non-happening event with me. Well, it happened but it isn't going to happen anymore and hasn't in well over a year since I stopped going there and to any other Subways. I have been a 15 year customer of Subway but they permanently lost my business and this particular Subway had a lot to do with it.\n\nWhatever. There are great lunch deals in that same area - LOTS of them - that walking away from this establishment was easier than I thought it would be after having gone there for so long. | en | 265 | please spare details reviews plus person line even close run minutes try minutes done bought farm took grown cotton made printed place takes freaking staff populated store manager couple assistants employee faces change quite frequently go store anymore years going least times week enough running apparently small margins make things right even wrong last time wronged particular yes knew people worked including store manager yvette washed hands wronged brush wronged several times total bs excuse event well happened going happen anymore well year since stopped going subways year customer subway permanently lost business particular subway lot great lunch deals area lots walking away establishment easier thought would gone long | 109 |

4 | Five stars for a fast food place? Hell yea. This is pretty much the only fast food place (other than In-N-Out) that people actually like instead of eating at strictly for convenience. (That said, it's still fast food.)\nYou can either drive thru, order in your car, or eat outside on picnic style tables. The kids meals make for a great snack (who doesn't like a free toy?) and the coneys are ahead of their time as far as AZ is concerned.\nThe real killer, of course, is the huge variety of drinks, slushies, etc. If you go during happy hour you can get a whole crowd of people large drinks for just a couple of bucks.\nDon't go expecting fantastic food, but do go in lieu of just about any other fast food place. | en | 132 | five stars fast food place hell yea pretty much fast food place people actually like instead eating strictly convenience said still fast food either drive thru order car eat outside picnic style tables kids meals make great snack like free toy coneys ahead time far az real killer course huge variety drinks slushies etc go happy hour get whole crowd people large drinks couple go expecting fantastic food go lieu fast food place | 73 |

1 | I know Sonic isn't a typical fast food place - you never go inside - but still, the employees need to be a little more cognizant of the fact that we can still see what you are doing.\n\nStopped there for lunch today and was parked in a stall right outside the door. I watched (after I had received and eaten my food) one of the guys that works there bring a bag of trash outside and set it down by the door. Then I watched as he went and got another bag and did the same thing. Not a minute later, he came out the door with a tray of food in his hands to deliver to a car. Hmmmm... enough time to wash your hands or no?\n\nAlso, why put the trash right by the door instead of taking it to the dumpster? Which was a few feet away, and he's on roller skates! It's not like he even had to walk there.\n\nRight before I left, I watched a girl come out and walk right by the two bags of trash to go have a cigarette. Where she proceeded to stand right next to the dumpster. Hello? Take the trash with you maybe? \n\nThe food was good - no complaints there.

0 | Took my car in to have my TPMS sensors installed. I got a quote from their Service Manager Scott and came in the next day to get the sensors installed. The person who checked my car in didn't add relearning the sensors to the job list, although it was on the original estimate for $9.99. Akram, one of the technicians, did the job and is a very nice guy. But since the sensors weren't reprogrammed my TMPS sensor light came on the next day. I took it back in the next week to get it looked at and Scott said it would cost $40 to reprogram the sensors. I asked why it was so expensive? He said that the computer told him he needs to hook it up to a big computer to reset the sensors. I knew that wasn't required. All this was caused by his error and his team but he was to proud to admit he was wrong and didn't know what he was talking about. He flat out lied to me. I left telling him I would talk to his manager. After leaving Pep Boys I drove to Discount Tires on Chandler Blvd. I walked in and I told him my TMPS sensor light was on and he told me he would take care of it. He brought a out a handheld device and reprogrammed it in 2 minutes. He even put air in my tires. All this for FREE! I gave him a tip and left happy.

0 | Went to this location for years. Always had a great experience. Went in the other day to see if they match competitor coupons for auto service. (Brakes,oil change, tire rotation). The first person I talked to (service writer) said he wasn't sure what the policy really is because sometimes they do match and sometimes they don't. That started that red flag kinda feeling. He said he would check with the manager. I waited for about 5 minutes and then the manager came out to the floor and I asked him if they match competitor coupons. His reply? I would have to come back the next day and ask yet another manager who was not there today. Hey guys! Ive got an idea! Know your company policies and don't inconvenience the customer! Why would I come back again without knowing if your willing to match the competitor coupon? I averaged $2500 a year plus in products and service with you guys for several years.

0 | I basically don't like when shops assume I don't know anything about cars because I take my car to a shop to get an oil change rather than doing it myself. I was a loyal Hontech customer until recently I was told I needed a whole new oil pan for my Honda because they could not work with the aftermarket oil plug that was on the car. It had a oil plug used by places like JiffyLube. It has an opening in the center of the oil plug for them to attach a vacuum to suck out the oil. Well the plastic plug in the center had broken off and because of that Hontech could not change the oil and recommended to install a whole new oilpan...I opted out and the next day went to Autozone, bought a new oil plug for $2.50, and changed the oil myself. Saved myself a few hundred dollars. I'm no longer taking my vehicles to Hontech and looking for a new mechanic.... | en | 168 | basically like shops assume know anything cars take car shop get oil change rather loyal hontech customer recently told needed whole new oil pan honda could work aftermarket oil plug car oil plug used places like jiffylube opening center oil plug attach vacuum suck oil well plastic plug center broken hontech could change oil recommended install whole new oilpan opted next day went autozone bought new oil plug changed oil saved hundred dollars longer taking vehicles hontech looking new mechanic | 80 |
0 | So normally I don't write reviews if they are unfavorable but I feel the need on this one.\nMy honda civic went into \"limp\" mode and when I tried to read the computer with my scanner it would not connect with the computer.\nI researched, asked a lot of questions of a lot of people, and used every resourse I could find, with no help. I figured my computer was dead.\nI have heard some bad things about HonTech but I have always been the type of person to give a fair shake.\nI called them up and they told me it would be $94 to diagnose the problem and we could go from there.\nI took the car down there and dropped it off. After several hours the next day (I had dropped it the night before) they called and told me my computer was dead and that they could not connect to the computer. This was the same thing I found on my scan.\nSo I know for a fact that based on the fact the computer could not be read by their scanner, that what they did was hook it up, saw they could not connect, and disconnect. This entire process would have taken about 2 minutes and 11 seconds.\nSo they, in fact, did NOT diagnose anything and spent almost no time, yet they still charged me the $94 and told me my scanner probably shorted out the computer. My scanner is a very expensive one and is not very old, AND I scan cars all the time and never had this issue with any other car.\nI feel like they ripped me off by charging me even though I KNOW they really did nothing.\nI would stay away from this business as they are thieves and have NO ethics in dealing with customers. | en | 299 | normally write reviews unfavorable feel need honda civic went mode tried read computer scanner would connect researched asked lot questions lot people used every resourse could find help figured computer heard bad things hontech always type person give fair called told would diagnose problem could go took car dropped several hours next day dropped night called told computer dead could connect computer thing found know fact based fact computer could read scanner hook saw could connect disconnect entire process would taken minutes fact diagnose anything spent almost time yet still charged told scanner probably shorted computer scanner expensive one old scan cars time never issue feel like ripped charging even though know really would stay away business thieves ethics dealing customers | 121 |
0 | I was renting a car for a couple of months until my car was delivered from Europe. \nRENTALS: Met expectations. Nothing spectacular. Economy gas efficient cars that were clean. \nCUSTOMER SERVICE: OMG... horrible. NEVER come here. Upon renewal of my contract for the 2nd month I was promised the same contract BUT upon arriving for renewal they jacked up the price on me which was almost twice the price! RIDICULOUS. They cited that \"the market changes.\" I was so disappointed and furious that I went to another Enterprise on Orchid Lane (please see review) and they honored the contract that this Enterprise refused to honor even when explained my situation! Shame on them! Plus, I was a good customer. It's not like I was renting for only a weekend. I was wanting to rent for 2 whole months. Hm! Their loss! \nP.S.

I then went outside and reserved a vehicle online. I drove home, called the branch and asked someone to pick up me up. In 30 mins.

0 | We just had a generally bad experience with this place. \n\nOur car was hit by another driver and had to go into the body shop for a few weeks of work. Our insurance company covered a certain amount per day for a rental car and they directed us to this location to pick up a car. \n\nWe had $30 per day to spend and supposedly were using this rental car company because the insurance company had a partnership with them for good rates. \n\nI've rented quite a few cars and am usually able to get a decent car for $20-30 per day from non-airport locations, so my expectation was that we would be able to get a reasonable rental car for this rate. \n\nUnfortunately, we were given just one option; a Dodge Avenger. This car was terrible. The interior of the car had not been properly cleaned and there was some sort of sticky liquid in/around the cup holders, which was gross. The rest of the car just did not seem clean overall, for example, my husband had to point out a large stain on the back seat when we picked the car up initially, and the guy helping us did not apologize nor was he particularly concerned about it - apparently stained upholstery is okay by their ... standards... ? But to me it is just ... ewww. \n\nWe had the car for 3 weeks, which means that they were making about $650 over the course of our rental, but apparently $650 did not entitle us to a clean car.\n\nIn addition to the cleanliness issues mentioned, the car was also in bad repair. When we left the rental location, we soon noticed that the brakes squeaked constantly. I can't believe they are renting out cars that are not functioning correctly - this is crazy! It doesn't seem safe at all. \n\nOur car in the shop is an SUV, which we usually use for toting the whole family, carseat, groceries, percussion equipment, etc around town on the weekends and in the evenings. As a result, the tiny Avenger was a complete disappointment and not terribly useful to us, however the cost to rent an SUV (hundreds of dollars per day) was silly and not a possibility. My only consolation was that it was a small car, so it would of course be more gas-efficient than our lumbering, gas guzzler SUV, right? Ummmm NOPE! We had to fill this car up about once per day on the weekends. I honestly don't know how this level of inefficiency is legal, considering how horribly wasteful it is (not to mention how expensive this got) \n\nAt the end of our rental we discovered that their hours are completely inconvenient to anyone who works a normal job, and they do not have an overnight key drop for when they are not open. We got the call from our mechanic at 5:00pm on Thursday that our car was ready and could be picked up. This meant that we needed to drop off the rental car right away as our insurance would not continue covering the rental now that the work on our other vehicle was finished. This location closed at 6:00pm, which meant that we would not make it there before they closed. We definitely did not want to have to personally pay for this car for even one day considering how unhappy we were with it already.\n\nWe called around to see if we could drop it off at an alternate location that was open later, in order to avoid any charges, but were told that while we could do this, it would be subject to a $50.00 fee for drop off at a different location. This is a ridiculous fee considering it is almost 2 days' rental cost. No one with Enterprise was willing to help, even after explaining the situation. \n\nUltimately, we had to get to work 2 hours late so that we could wait till 8am to drop off the rental car before driving to the other side of town where we work. It was just such a stupid process. \n\nWe did mention the drop off situation to the agent we were dropping the car off with when we returned it and they tried to argue that we could drop off at an alternate location and she was apparently unaware of the $50.00 fee that their company charges to do this. She also tried to defend the lack of an overnight drop off as a safety issue, which I understand considering that this location is not in a great part of town (but this is still not a reasonable excuse for being so inconvenient, honestly) \n\nThe parking lot is extremely narrow and weird, so getting in and out is a pain. \n\nDon't use this location (or really Enterprise in general) at all if you can avoid it, they seem to be awful and have terrible, dirty cars that aren't kept in good repair. | en | 830 | generally bad experience place car hit another driver go body shop weeks work insurance company covered certain amount per day rental car directed us location pick car per day spend supposedly using rental car company insurance company partnership good rates rented quite cars usually able get decent car per day locations expectation would able get reasonable rental car rate given one option dodge avenger car terrible interior car properly cleaned sort sticky liquid cup holders gross rest car seem clean overall example husband point large stain back seat picked car initially guy helping us apologize particularly concerned apparently stained upholstery okay standards ewww car weeks means making course rental apparently entitle us clean addition cleanliness issues mentioned car also bad repair left rental location soon noticed brakes squeaked constantly ca believe renting cars functioning correctly crazy seem safe car shop suv usually use toting whole family carseat groceries percussion equipment etc around town weekends evenings result tiny avenger complete disappointment terribly useful us however cost rent suv hundreds dollars per day silly possibility consolation small car would course lumbering gas guzzler suv right ummmm nope fill car per day weekends honestly know level inefficiency legal considering horribly wasteful mention expensive got end rental discovered hours completely inconvenient anyone works normal job overnight key drop open got call mechanic thursday car ready could picked meant needed drop rental car right away insurance would continue covering rental work vehicle finished location closed meant would make closed definitely want personally pay car even one day considering unhappy called around see could drop alternate location open later order avoid charges told could would subject fee drop different location ridiculous fee considering almost days rental cost one enterprise willing help even explaining situation get work hours late could wait till drop rental car driving side town work stupid process mention drop situation agent dropping car returned tried argue could drop alternate location apparently unaware fee company charges also tried defend lack overnight drop safety issue understand considering location great part town still reasonable excuse inconvenient honestly parking lot extremely narrow weird getting pain use location really enterprise general avoid seem awful terrible dirty cars kept good repair | 362 |
2 | There's really not a lot to say here. The people are nice, and relatively efficient. I sometimes think their cars have an odd smell to them (don't know why). But they are right next to the body shop my insurance company prefers, and they also prefer this rental office. They arrange everything, making the entire process quite painless. If I were paying for it I might feel differently, but they are extremely convenient to the body shop. And, as I said, the people are friendly and helpful.

2 | We made a reservation for a rental back in March when we booked our plane tickets. Prior to arrival, we called to make sure that we were still good to go, and were told that they would have our car tau for us by noon the next day. Upon arrival we were told that they did not have any cars in the size category that we had specified but they had a larger car that they would rent to us for the same price. \n\nWe ended up waiting for about 20 more minutes for a smaller car with better gas mileage. The assistant manager have us a 10% discount because of the trouble. Although the discount was appreciate, it's hard to be extremely understanding when this reservation had been made four months ahead of time. \n\nCostumer service was great though.

1 | Was upset because they didnt have the Van i reserved, and they offered to give me and SUV- all they had. The SUV was absolutely filthy w food on the floor, n the carpet appeared stained w dark matter and looked disgusting. Had to take it home and clean it myself....however, The outside of the vehicle was washed. When i told the Enterprise clerk about the filthy interior she said they dont detail the interior...use a vacuum/some carpet cleaner!...jeez!! On the positive, the staff was friendly and did discount my rental, and on the return gave me another discount because the seat was broken on the SUV n wouldnt go down. Discounts helped but the gas milage on the SUV killed my pocketbook. Lesson learned is dont pickup a vehicle at the end of the day...i got stuck w something i didnt want and there was nothing i could do about it, as i was leaving for a trip early in the morning.

1 | I only give Dominos a second star because I love the pizza, but the customer service at this location is enough to make me give my money to Pizza Hut, Nellos, Papa Johns, or any of the other countless pizza joints within a 2 block radius. My first experience at this location, I walked in and the manager was straight rude the entire time...even told me the pizza is not supposed to look like the picture..shortly after they came out with their take a picture promotion..lol joke was on him I guess. The district manager called me back and basically argued with me over the service I received. I decided to go back last night (over a year later) to try my hand again. Walked in, manager is still the same, one employee was standing staring at the computer screen in front of my face, said nothing. 3 other employees walk up and stare at the same computer screen, again nothing. Mind you I am standing 5 feet away from them with the counter and glass separating us. They all have looked at me by now and are staring back at the computer screen. Must be something super interesting. Finally about 3 minutes later, one looks up at me again and says \"someone help her\". About a minute later one of them finally looks at me with a \" What do you want?\" look on his face. I said I am here to pick up an order for Megan Williams. One looks for my pizza hands it to me and they all just go about their business. Not one word was spoken to me by any of the 4 employees in the store. No thank you, have a nice night, thanks for the order, NADA! OMG I have never experienced anything like that in my life and I have had some baaaaad experiences. The staff at this location needs to be torn down from the bottom up and rebuilt. There is better pizza around and closer. I suggest Nellos.

1 | Price is right, but food quality is blahhhhhh. I succumbed to the TV advertising and went to try again. I was disappointed. I got a large 3 topping hand tossed pizza. Crust was crappy, sauce was crappy, and toppings were OK but sparse. I would rather pay a higher price and get a better pizza. I also got 16 piece box of boneless chicken too. That was pretty horrible -- just dry pieces of breast meat breaded and fried. Very dry and even though the breading was seasoned, it still was crummy tasting. I think it would have been better with batter instead of breading. Oh well, you get what you pay for. These days, all pizza is not worth the money. For approximately the same price, you can get a full meal at other restaurants. The only saving grace to pizza is that it is finger and convenience food. But that is about it. | en | 155 | price right food quality blahhhhhh succumbed tv advertising went try disappointed got large topping hand tossed pizza crust crappy sauce crappy toppings ok sparse would rather pay higher price get better pizza also got piece box boneless chicken pretty horrible dry pieces breast meat breaded fried dry even though breading seasoned still crummy tasting think would better batter instead breading oh well get pay days pizza worth money approximately price get full meal restaurants saving grace pizza finger convenience food | 80 |

I saw that the guy had forgot to put in the order which contributed to the long wait, but he didn't care.\n\nWhen I finally got my order, the pizza was cold, and I was pissed off from waiting for so long. When I brought this to his attention he just said \"sorry\" and walked away.\n\nMaybe if the pizza was decent, I would have been semi-appeased about the situation.

4 | I have been to several pharmacies and had several really, really bad experiences (I would never recommend going to Walmart pharmacy on Stapley and Baseline, but that's another review to be written...). This is the only pharmacy that has consistently done a really good job and exhibited the kind of competence that you would hope to find in pharmacy staff. These people are putting pills in a bottle for you, so at least being able to read and communicate are usually a good thing. There hasn't been much if any turnover in the core staff (pharmacists and technicians) that I have come into contact with over the past 2-3 years, which says a lot about the place in my opinion. The staff is always very courteous and helpful, and they will usually check to make sure that they have the medication on hand before I leave. I almost exclusively use the drive through, and rarely have to wait more than a minute or so for someone to help me. \nIf the doctor calls in a prescription or if they are short on some of the pills, they will usually call to let me know. They have shared my frustration and tried to help when the health insurance company (deep breaths) give us a hassle about something. It is nice that they don't just dump it all in my lap as some places will do. \nThey are not the closest pharmacy to me (although they are very close) but I keep going to them because of the great service and the consistency.

The waiter gave me the look, \"Are you sure?\"\n\n\"Umm, why is something wrong?\"\n\n\"Have you ever had our biscuits and gravy?\" He snickers back\n\n\"No.\"\n\n\"Oh, well, one biscuit is about this (holding hands around his face) big.\"\n\n\"I'll have one then, thanks.\"\n\n\"Snicker, snort, snicker. I thought you might change your mind.\"\n\nThis place was busy and I didn't think it was so good.

2 | My friend Mario likes to meet here for breakfast, because we can just sit and talk. I've been here twice, both on a Saturday morning around 8:30am. The wait staff is friendly.\n\nThe breakfast is OK. My wife keeps asking me to take her here, and one of these days, I'm gonna do it.\n\nOn my last visit, I ordered me some blueberry pancakes. They were very large and I couldn't finish. I thought I caught Mario staring longingly at the leftovers on my plate, until I realized he was just being transported back in time as he told a story of his childhood.\n\nThe food is plausible, but I'm partial to the atmosphere.

2 | Let me start off by saying i love breakfast so my reviews for breakfast spots are going to be the toughest because places really need to blow me away in order for me to rant and rave about them. I've heard numerous mixed reviews from friends and family about Brunchies so when i was down the street i decided to finally try it out...\n\nFirst of all I'm a big fan of downtown Chandler so the location is great. Walking in, you get the feeling that this place has been there for years which is always a great feeling. Looking at the menu i noticed that its part of the Serrano's Franchise which is a good local Mexican food restaurant. That being said you can see it has influence in the menu, to be specific they have a \"Mexican breakfast\" section (chorizo, Mexican style steak and eggs, etc...) which looks very tempting. \n\nI had just watched a show on the food network that talked about the best chicken fried steaks in the nation so naturally i was craving one therefore its what i ordered. The CFS came with your choice of egg ( i ordered scrambled), home fries and biscuit/toast (biscuit). All in all i was satisfied with the meal. The portion was perfect but the sausage gravy smothered on top of the CFS was definitely the highlight (loved the big chunks of sausage). Eggs, home fries and biscuit were nothing to run home to mom about.\n\nMy girlfriend isn't a big breakfast person so she ordered the cheeseburger and fries. The meat and cheese were served on top of the bun and i noticed the inside of the bun was toasted (big fan of this). Dressings were served on the side so they give you the choice on what you want to put in your burger. The Fries were pretty solid but very typical (very comparable to Burger King style fries just not as greasy). i had a bite of her burger and it wasn't bad but again nothing to go crazy over.\n\nAll in all, although the food wasn't to die for, i would not hesitate coming back nor would i ever deny an invite to eat here again. I'd love to try more items on the menu especially the Hobo Omelet (all meat omelet). \n\nThe service was standard but i was a little upset we were not offered a \"Brunchies Card\" like the couple next to us were. I'll get over it. | en | 412 | let start saying love breakfast reviews breakfast spots going toughest places really need blow away order rant rave heard numerous mixed reviews friends family brunchies street decided finally try big fan downtown chandler location great walking get feeling place years always great feeling looking menu noticed part serrano franchise good local mexican food restaurant said see influence menu specific mexican section chorizo mexican style steak eggs etc looks tempting watched show food network talked best chicken fried steaks nation naturally craving one therefore ordered cfs came choice egg ordered scrambled home fries biscuit satisfied meal portion perfect sausage gravy smothered top cfs definitely highlight loved big chunks sausage eggs home fries biscuit nothing run home mom girlfriend big breakfast person ordered cheeseburger fries meat cheese served top bun noticed inside bun toasted big fan dressings served side give choice want put burger fries pretty solid typical comparable burger king style fries greasy bite burger bad nothing go crazy although food die would hesitate coming back would ever deny invite eat love try items menu especially hobo omelet meat omelet service standard little upset offered brunchies like couple next us get | 190 |
1 | Went to brunchies for breakfast recently and was mildly to largely disappointed. The food was regular, and the service struggled... It wasn't just the waiter that was over our table, but the whole staff just sat around as our friends baby screamed and we waited for 25 minute while our server was MIA. We asked if we could just pay at the front and NO, that just couldn't happen. So the baby got louder, and we waited and were given some excuse that it was the waiters first day on the job... | en | 92 | went brunchies breakfast recently mildly largely disappointed food regular service struggled waiter table whole staff sat around friends baby screamed waited minute server mia asked could pay front could happen baby got louder waited given excuse waiters first day job | 40 |
3 | Yes, the place is old and stale looking but every-time I'm there I feel like being in a small town diner with all the folks that I know. The coffee isn't very good but the food is tasty and not greasy. The prices are low and the Serrano's are as local as locals can get. It gets crowded on weekends so come before 10. | en | 64 | yes place old stale looking feel like small town diner folks know coffee good food tasty greasy prices low serrano local locals get gets crowded weekends come | 27 |

3 | This is a great breakfast or lunch standby in Downtown Chandler. Brunchies is owned my the Serrano's family and carries some of the same menu items. \nI enjoy their lunch salads. Get the 1/2 size and I promise you will leave full. \nThe french fries are like fried crack. I have to force myself not to eat them, they are so good. \nService can be a little slow, but everyone is friendly. \n\nBe sure to ask about their rewards card. You will get credit towards future meals... | en | 87 | great breakfast lunch standby downtown chandler brunchies owned serrano family carries menu items enjoy lunch salads get size promise leave full french fries like fried crack force eat good little slow everyone friendly sure ask rewards card get credit towards future meals | 42 |

0 | The food at Brunchies is okay, however, the manager, Caroline, is not very accommodating for large groups of professionals that would like to hold meetings every week. Simple requests to save our spot, turning down the music, flexibility with breakfast specials, etc., etc. is not welcomed and met with NO I CAN NOT DO THAT since I have other customers! Well if this local eaterie is to survive, the Serrano family needs to know how to manage their employees. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND BRUNCHIES! I suggest spending your $$$ at another local restaurant that appreciates you! | en | 96 | food brunchies okay however manager caroline accommodating large groups professionals would like hold meetings every week simple requests save spot turning music flexibility breakfast specials etc welcomed met since customers well local eaterie survive serrano family needs know manage employees would recommend brunchies suggest spending another local restaurant appreciates | 49 |
1 | Gosh, where do I start.... went for breakfast yesterday and was excited to try Brunchies as I had been hearing about it for years. I love Serrano's so I figured that this place was going to be good as well. Not even close to being like Serrano's. First off, you can definitely tell that Brunchies takes a back seat to Serrano's in the owners eyes. My first impression was not a good one based on the atmosphere and cleanliness of the restaurant and the service from the hostess. We came in the back entrance and walked to the front. The hostess was not very polite or friendly and seemed a bit slow. I know that sounds mean but she acted like she really was not excited to be there. I get it, a hostess job is not exactly exciting, however, she could have at least acted somewhat happy to seat us. In any event, the booth she sat us at was filthy. The table was clean but the seating had crap all over it and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in god knows how long. It especially grossed me out when I went to wipe the seat with my hand so I could scoot over and some of the gunk from the seat stuck to my hand. Eeeewwwwwweeeeeee. Not only that, the cups were dirty and old. In fact, I know for a fact that they are the old cups from Serrano's. How do I know? Because I have eaten at Serrano's for a long time and I actually commented on how Serrano's needed new cups on one of their comment cards. A week later, new cups at Serrano's which was great but now I know where the old ones went!\nAnyways, on to the menu. It was your typical greasy spoon diner breakfasts. Sometimes I don't mind that but I have really been trying to watch what I eat lately so was hoping to get something with egg whites in it. It didn't appear that was even an option on the menu. In fact, there wasn't a whole lot of anything healthy on their menu. I opted for the veggie omelet on their special menu with home fries and wheat toast. The hubby had their special of the day which was chicken fried steak with gravy, eggs, and a biscuit. The portions were definitely large which also warranted the prices (the prices were good too). So this was a definite value for breakfast, however, the food was very mediocre. Both my husbands and my eggs were not seasoned whatsoever. On the plus side, the hubby said that the biscuit definitely tasted home made.\nA few other notes, I was especially disgusted when I saw one of the waiters (not ours thank god) picking his nose as he walked into the kitchen. Yuck. Lastly, the big creepy statue of the old man with a tray of candy needs to go. Halloween is over and wont be happening for awhile. Needless to say, this place a big let down and I am not very thrilled to go back again. However, I most likely will have to go one more time because the hubby wants to try the hobo omelet. :( | en | 538 | gosh start went breakfast yesterday excited try brunchies hearing years love serrano figured place going good well even close like serrano first definitely tell brunchies takes back seat serrano owners eyes first impression good one based atmosphere cleanliness restaurant service hostess came back entrance walked front hostess polite friendly seemed bit slow know sounds mean acted like really excited get hostess job exactly exciting however could least acted somewhat happy seat us event booth sat us filthy table clean seating crap looked like cleaned god knows long especially grossed went wipe seat hand could scoot gunk seat stuck hand eeeewwwwwweeeeeee cups dirty old fact know fact old cups serrano know eaten serrano long time actually commented serrano needed new cups one comment cards week later new cups serrano great know old ones went menu typical greasy spoon diner breakfasts sometimes mind really trying watch eat lately hoping get something egg whites appear even option menu fact whole lot anything healthy menu opted veggie omelet special menu home fries wheat toast hubby special day chicken fried steak gravy eggs biscuit portions definitely large also warranted prices prices good definite value breakfast however food mediocre husbands eggs seasoned whatsoever plus side hubby said biscuit definitely tasted home notes especially disgusted saw one waiters thank god picking nose walked kitchen yuck lastly big creepy statue old man tray candy needs go halloween wont happening awhile needless say place big let thrilled go back however likely go one time hubby wants try hobo omelet | 250 |
2 | Your classic middle of the road mom and pop restaurant. \n\nThe atmosphere is old, country, and kitschy so it attracts a lot of the retired folks in the area. \n\nThe waitresses are all the stereotypical \"hey hon, how ya doin'\" type of ladies-- all very nice. \n\nFood here is mediocre, but they are generous with the portions-- you'll definitely be able to come home with a doggie bag. | en | 68 | classic middle road mom pop restaurant atmosphere old country kitschy attracts lot retired folks area waitresses stereotypical hey hon ya type ladies nice mediocre generous portions definitely able come home doggie bag | 32 |

0 | I used to go here about 10 yrs ago. Had a couple of bad experiences. Thought I'd give them another try. Placed my order requesting to add an egg and bacon extra crisp. Only 3 other tables seated. Got my order..missing egg. Pancakes tasted frozen and thawed. Took awhile to get our order. Wanted bacon 'burnt'. It seemed to have been microwaved. Only thing that I ate was the milk. Waitress appologized. She took off the bill the only thing that was good...The Milk! No mas.
