A family friendly(and family owned) diner-style restaurant.\n \nBrunches on Sunday are a must (I highly recommend the lobster eggs benedict-YUM!). Portions are pretty big so go hungry! They have plenty of omelet options, and a wide variety of lunch & dinner options to choose from.\n\nIf you see memorabilla you like, you can probably buy it (Elvis cookie jar anyone?) |
This review is for the spa only.\n\nI am a local and received a gift card for the hotel so we thought we would spend it at the spa. I know what your thinking, how could anyone complain when it's free AND complain about a spa!\n\nWhen we first arrived we were checked in by a friendly staff member and we told her it was our first time visiting. She walked us to the stairs and said the service staff will then take care of our lockers, etc downstairs. The service staff retrieved our spa shoes and locker keys and left us guessing after that. I said it's our first time here - where do we go? He pointed us to the Men/Women rooms where he said the lockers were and that the massage therapist would pick us up in there.\n\nThis is where I got upset. No tour, had no idea where anything was, pretzels on the floor, kleenex dispenser empty, no toiliet paper in the stall, stall door lock was broke, candles weren't lit etc. As I sat in the lounge to wait for my massage, I overheard a staff member giving a \"tour\" to another lady. Wow - where did I go wrong after telling them 3 times that we had never been there! (once over the phone).\n\nThe massage was great as was the therapist Jennifer. After the massage Jennifer told us about the couples Jacuzzi. We got dressed and went to the Jacuzzi, tried to turn it on - no bubbles! I asked a therapist if I was turning it on incorrectly and she stated that the bubbles weren't working but you can still sit in it. What? I can sit in my hot bath tub at home if that was the case!\n\nNeedless to say, we left after I couldn't charge my cocktail I ordered to my spa account at their private pool. Upon checkout, we didn't even receive a thank you, come back soon, nothing. Therefore, we will never be back and I would never recommend this spa. |
Im in healthcare. And this is one of the worst run spas I have ever seen. Ive been there numerous times, and I finally have refused to set foot back on the property, even when a friend offered to pay. \n\nI have so many bad experiences here, there just isnt room to describe anything but the highlights. The last straw came when late last year I decided to take a spa day to relax and work some of the kinks out. SO I schedule a extra long deep tissue and get assigned to a therapist Ive never seen before. She takes me back and is some God awful irritating French woman who starts the massage and make me feel horrible the entire session and gives me the impression she's making a pass at me. Did I mention she's like 50 and f-ugly as hell. By the end she had applied so much pressure to my neck (in medically inappropriate ways) that I left in extreme pain. To top it all off, the whirlpool was offline that day, the steam room was broke, and as usual, the staff are a bunch of rude idiots who could care less if you need help. I had enough of their poorly run business and filed a complaint with management. I also threatened to sue them for malpractice. The Marketing Vice President contacts me and promises to fix everything. Im told I will get a gift card to reuse whenever I want to replace the bad session. I accept the offer and return about 4 months later. Guess what, the bastard gave me a blank gift card which makes me have to pay for the follow up appointment since I cant cancel at the desk. Then I get back to the spa and yet again the damn whirlpool and steam room are off line. \"Some guy cut himself on the tile and bled all in the pool.\" the attendant tells me. So your pool is sharp enough to cut people and now is full of infectious blood. Thanks. So I go back to the massage, and guess what. I had specifically asked for a therapist I had never seen before to avoid any of the prior problems. Out comes the short little French troll. But with a different name tag. Did you guys know they switch the name tags of the therapists to keep you guessing? I walked out. Hell Ive even had a therapist high on pot here before. This place should be shut down and sued. |
Surprisingly a good experience. I was hesitant when I first heard about this but was actually really fun. \n\n1. There is an \"entrance\" fee. I went with just the basic entrance fee which was 15 dollars. Other options were for a fur coat (really nasty looking and looked a lot dirtier than the parkas) and 2 drinks. Eh wasn't worth it for me. If your wearing flip flops they will give you their FUgg boots with booties. People wearing shoes...they don't offer their boots.\n2. Go with a good sized group of people. I went with a group of 8 and it was amazing. Going as a couple would be fun but a little awkward since the place is actually SMALLER than you may think.\n3. Can not bring phones or cameras. They want to make money so they have a photographer taking pictures of everyone. We took advantage of the poor guy. Making him snap about 20-30 photos of just our group. To buy pictures they were about 20 dollars each... Ouch!\n4. Sculptures were pretty. You can take shots out of the boob sculpture (really funny). They have a weird aquarium with FAKE jelly fish in them, not sure why.\n\nOverall just do it people! It may be a little pricey but it's an experience you can tell people about and you have to admit... Is actually pretty cool ;) |
What a quaint little gift shop!\n\nEveryone's Designs is a lovely card and gift shop in the centre of the Bruntsfield area of Edinburgh and just a short walk from the city centre so it is an easy place to get to. \n\nThey stock a huge selection of cards suitable for every conceivable situation so you will be completely spoilt for choice. Everyone's Designs also has an array of little gifts and presents, such as candles, ornaments and cute kitchen utensils. Although most of the stock in this gift shop is mostly girl orientated, they also sell a gorgeous range of stationary, including notebooks and journals which would be an ideal present for a man.\n\nEveryone's Designs is in keeping with the rest of the up market stores in the Bruntsfield area so you know that what will purchase in this store will be of excellent quality. Most of the gifts are very reasonably priced, with cards priced at around two pounds. \n\nEvery time I walk past this shop I have to on, even if it is just to browse and smell the wonderful flavours of the candles. |
Le meilleur caf\u00e9 \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al! De plus, ils ont du lait sans lactose pour ceux avec des intol\u00e9rances :-) Tous ce que nous avons command\u00e9 \u00e9tait fantastique! Je recommande le pain dor\u00e9. Bel emplacement excellent service vraiment du A+! \u00c0 ne pas manquer! |
Went here last year and last week too... and I already miss the Uni and Oysters T_T ohh soo good!!! The chefs kept on entertaining us - they're so funny and the foods are so fresh, great selection of albacore, ama ebi, salmon, saba, white tuna soft shell crab ...*drooling* my friend didn't like Uni but I asked her to try it here, she got hooked! hahahaha... Thank God there's one all you can eat place like Hikari on earth! |
Got married here on 11/11/11 with no complaints at all. Everything went real smooth with the staff being real friendly and helpful. Will recommend to friends and family. |
Cancel your trip to Switzerland and take a drive to Sunnyslope instead! The Baker's Daughter is simply delectable! The Baker's Daughter is owned by guess who? That's right, the daughter of Karl's Bakery! This means that you can first stock up on baked treats at Karl's and then go next door to fill your bag with Swiss chocolates! \n\nFirst of all, I am impressed with the price of the chocolates. Swiss chocolate is typically a pretty penny but at the same time, you don't need a lot to be satisfied. The Swiss chocolate here is just a little over a dollar a piece and they are worth every penny! The store is stocked with chocolate for every taste bud, including the most chocolate of all chocolates, the fruitiest and the sweetest. I tried a couple different ones but especially liked the raspberry chocolate which is made with real raspberries! I could taste the freshness of the fruit while I took a bite into the chocolate. I also noticed that they have several gift box options, making this a perfect store for gifting! Just make sure you buy a piece or two for yourself. \n\nThe owner is incredibly friendly and helpful. Also, they do have a $10 minimum if you're paying with a card, so unless you're planning on spending $10, bring cash! |
'Twas my first time visiting this museum - and before I get into anything else, let me say that the art was definitely impressive. \n\nNow, that's out of the way. Let's talk about the rest of the experience. Remember when you'd go into an antique store - or a fancy place when you were a child? And someone would follow you around whilst leering - making sure you weren't going to destroy anything - or ruin expensive pieces? THAT is how we felt for close to two hours as we wandered the various exhibits. \n\nWas that necessary? I don't think so. I was told no less than four times that I wasn't allowed to take pictures of certain pieces because \"they didn't have the rights to it\" when there were no signs explaining so. Even in the gift shop, surrounded by children, we were followed and judged unneccessarily. \n\nI'm a big guy, with an even bigger personality - but that doesn't mean I should be treated like a twelve year old with a can of spray paint. Truth is, it only makes me want to misbehave.\n\nAt one point, Angie pointed something out that was in a glass case, and out of nowhere a lady swooped in and basically slapped her hand and stated, \"uhh, it's REALLY tough for us to get fingerprints off of these glass cases - so if you could NOT touch anything, we'd appreciate it\".\n\nIn other words, I felt like I was stuck in a cubicle being Lumbergh'ed - on a SUNDAY no less?!? No thank you. I will not be back, nor can I recommend the experience for anyone unless they're a mute amputee. \n\nSide note - the art of video games exhibit was underwhelming. The displays were fun, but if you're going to have examples of the various consoles throughout the years, why in the world would you not have each of them set up with the ability to play? There was an Atari w/ Pac Man and a classic NES w/ Super Mario Bros. set up - but hundreds of people and only two screens. |
This place did not disappoint for an AYCE sushi dinner. I would go with what other reviewers suggested to make a reservation beforehand if you know you're going there. We went there without a reservation and it was crowded. We ended up choosing to sit at the bar which turned out to be a lot more fun for us. The servers and the sushi chefs were very nice and accommodating. Because we were at the bar, there was very little wait time for our sushi and the waiter was prompt with our other side orders too. For an ALYCE sushi place, the quality was awesome. I personally really like their sushi nigiri some of the specialty rolls.\n\nMy favorites of the sushi nigiri was the salmon (which tasted immaculate to us), seared salmon, unagi, super white tuna, garlic tuna, and uni. For the specialty rolls the dragon, sexy girl, and maguma. The extra stuff from the menu we tried were the ahi poki, fried calamari, yakitori, and mochi ice cream. Their regular tuna nigiri was the only let down as two of the four pieces we had didn't taste as fresh as the rest of the sushi we had that night. Compared to other AYCE places in the area, this place is a good spot to try. We had a good time and would try them again when we're back in town. |
3 words, Happy Hour Sushi! \n\nNot only is deco in the restaurant on point, not only is the staff very kind, but theyre half off, yes half off sushi selection is major nums for sure.\n\nTo top it off, Sundays they have happy hour from open to close!!! \n\nI would mos def recommend coming here. |
Not as good as my previous visit, but still good.\n\nCame here with three buddies this past Saturday and we ended up getting seats in the lounge area. While I prefer the dining room, there wasn't much choice in the matter, since they were booked solid until 10pm. The lounge was nice, but the seats could use A LOT of improvement. My back and legs ached before we even received our entrees. Even a couple cocktails didn't numb the discomfort.\n\nComfort aside, the food and service were on the mark. We ordered five appetizers:\n\n1. Fava bean salad - my wife didn't like it when she went last time, but this time one of my buddies actually enjoyed it. Go figure. But seriously, why pay $15 for a bean salad?!?\n2. Big Eye Carpaccio - not bad, but it felt like such a waste of good tuna to be fixed up. I would have preferred it sashimi style, but that's just me. \n3. Maple Glazed Pork Belly - just as yummy as it was the last time. And I again wish I had just ordered 4 of these for my entree. I would compare this to sweet, salty baconny goodness. \n4. Kobe Sashimi - everyone on the table loved this we did two orders. Call me a purist, but I really would have liked less...flavor. Like the big eye, there were just too many flavors going on around such a great central ingredient. The sauce muted the beefy goodness. On the plus side, this was butter tender and really tasty. \n\nWe each had different cuts of meat, and everyone was happy with what they had. If I remember correctly, my friends ordered a filet, New York Strip and Illinois Rib Eye. I had the Nebraska Rib Eye. All steaks were ordered medium rare and all were perfectly cooked. My buddy who had the Illinois (bone in) Rib Eye and I swapped pieces and we both agreed the Nebraska was far and away superior in flavor and tenderness. \n\nFor sides, we only had the creamed spinach and pureed potatoes. The egg on the spinach could have been cut up better because the pieces were pretty huge (picking nits on that one, eh). The potatoes were really nothing special and were seriously lacking in flavor; maybe they just need to add some bacon to that thing.\n\nI did order a bottle of Kaesler Avignon Syrah, which went waaaaay to fast. It felt like our server just wanted to empty the bottle out as quickly as possible. Maybe I'm just a pretentious wine snob, but I like to let the wine in my glass open up before pouring more. Is that too much to ask? Despite this perceived flaw in service, everyone was attentive, friendly and quick (maybe too quick?). \n\nActually, looking back on my previous review, I should have given CUT 5 stars for that visit because this time round it was a step down. |
Sushi was great. Everyone I was with enjoyed their meal. I will probably not go back because the location is not great. |
I love this place with an undying passion! In fact, I am going there right now! |
I haven't stayed at the LINQ hotel but I was frequently in here as we were staying at the Flamingo. The Flamingo doesn't offer free wifi so we came in here to use the wifi and check in for our flight the next day. We sat in the lounge where there was seating as a DJ spinning the tunes. She played dance mixes of old and new but the lounge wasn't too busy. The server came to see if we wanted drinks but didn't bother us after we declined the first time.\n\nWe also came in here looking for the Guy Fieri restaurant and walked around while waiting for a table to be available. There's a small convenience shop across the way from the restaurant. It sells alcohol, Vegas souvenirs, snacks, and popcorn but you are paying much more than Walgreens or CVS.\n\nThe slot machines and tables weren't very busy every time I walked through and I saw the bar servers walking around. Like that the Promenade and shops are close by. |
MMMMMMMMMMMMM....\nDo I really need to say more?! \nSeriously, this is the place to go if you are craving something usual with a twist. \nFried pickles are great, and any of the burger options are very good. I personally love the Ding Dong Burger... it simply gives an amazing asian flair to an already good burger. \nAlso, if you are a corn-dog lover, then this is the place for you. These aren't your standard, buy them frozen and in bulk, and we can can stick them in the deep fryer and hope they taste good, corn dogs. These are GREAT corn dogs, with flavor in every bite, and blanketed in a great cornbread covering. Yum! |
I finally got around to trying Bar-B-Q King. The weather was pretty nice so it was a good day for a drive in. I always try to keep an open mind when eating at a place for the first time which can be tough after reading reviews about the place. I ordered BBQ plate which comes with 2 sides. I got fries and slaw. My visit was on a Saturday between noon and 1 pm. The place seemed pretty busy with about 50% of the stalls occupied. It took a little while to get my food, but not so long as to start thinking, \"where is my food.\" The server dropped my tray off and quickly moved on the the next car without getting my money. Odd, but probably the most efficient. The pork was minced with sauce on it. The slaw was also minced rather than being shredded. There was also a sandwich bun along with the fries. I was able to get some pork without sauce to try first. The pork was moist and tender, but very bland. I then tried some of the pork with the sauce and the sauce was bland too. There was no smoke flavor at all. The fries were good, fluffy on the inside, but not quite crisp enough. The slaw was crunchy and fresh, but it too was bland. I don't really care about the sauce. Tastes vary and some like it spicier than others. But the pork although being tender and moist was disappointing. Overall it wasn't a bad meal, but it wasn't good either. Again there are better places to go for much better BBQ. |
The bf wanted to try Naked Fish because one of his favorite poker players happens to love this place. \"He eats there all the time!\" Is that a valid selling point? I guess so, because it worked! \n\nOverall, meh. The lobster roll was very good, but everythiing else we had was pretty average. The sunset and dark circle rolls sounded very promising and delicious, but they were surprisingly flavorless and boring. \n\nI liked that it's a totally unpretentious and cozy joint, but I definitely think that there is better sushi to be had out there. |
This place is awesome!\n\nFirst of all, I never really care what kind of chair I'm sitting in but I immediately noticed how amazingly comfy the bar seats are. I could relax here all day!\nAnyway...\nWe tried this place out on a Sunday afternoon, they have 1/2 off drinks all day. During the week they have 1/2 off sushi and drinks but I did not mind paying regular price for how good it was! We ordered 3 rolls: Shrimp Bizkit - SO delish! My new favorite :) We also ordered the Marilyn Monroll (raw, huge sushi rolls!) and the Kaboom (california roll with, quite literally, a huge pile of shrimp and krab on top! Bring your appetite for this one.)\nOur bartender was great, she was extremely friendly and fun to talk with. We tried out their sake bomber and were given a plethora of [generously sized] martini samples! Definitely did not walk in their with the intention to drink for a Sunday afternoon, but was happy about trying some samples for the next time we visit :) \n5+++ Stars!! |
Had a positive experience on a Sunday. Road the Showtime shuttle from the Luxor which got us here in plenty of time to game and pick up snacks for the flight. I didn't have any issues with the wi-if. |
Owner has reached out to me about our last visit . After being in biz for 13 years shows they still care , which is great to see . I would give them another shot as I was excited about their homemade pastas. |
I was wandering through Montreal trying to kill time (and also got a bit hungry as it was around lunchtime), so finding some generally positive reviews on Yelp, I decided to try Nu-Do.\n\nAs people before me have said, the big draw to this place was that they have hand-pulled noodles. I really liked how their noodles were made to order; the noodle guy came out from around back to make the noodles as I finished ordering. This guy was by no means an expert noodle-puller (an expert would've been much faster), but they were cooked just right (not too mushy and not undercooked), and the beef was also very well cooked. The soup has gotten many compliments here, but it seemed pretty standard to me - however, I did like that it is less salty than most other places, so you can really pick out other flavours in the broth.\n\nPortion size-wise, I thought it was a perfect size: just enough to make you feel satisfied without being overly full.\n\nAs others have also touched on, the only drawback was the wait. I went on a Friday afternoon (about 1:30pm, so after the lunch rush), and still had to wait a bit before I could eat - on the one hand, it's understandable because it's made to order, but it's also in a food court, so you would expect a bit more expediency in the food prep. After I had ordered, and before I got my food, there was a sizeable crowd of people also waiting...I can't imagine how they deal with an actual lunchtime crowd!\n\nPrice-wise, I paid a bit over $10 for a bowl of beef noodle soup.\n\nOverall though, it's a good place to eat if you want something tasty, not super-filling, and have a bit of time to spare. |
Ok...so we went back and tried it with my mom who has eaten at the chi location. We went to see the show and my mother insisted we try it. We tried some items and this was a new menu, but a shocker the staff still didn't know what was in the items nor had they had a chance to try them from what our server had told us. The young lady at the end of the kitchen was wiping her nose on her arm, disgusting. And as we walked by my mom liked the lay out due to the chef being in arms reach to speak too, I guess the chef is on the line in chicago, but he didn't want to be bothered. \n\nThe servers were a bit more attentive this time around, so some improvement. Hosts were on point with greeting, and the patio seems cool. No table visits by a manager or chef, and it was still slow for mid week. But again it is the Monte carlo, and in the middle of a reconstruction. \n\nAs for the food it was better all around but still not comparable to raku and fukumimi. And again the hygiene standard of the cooks, I know they are union but that is a manager issue to enforce. \n\nSadly if it wasn't for my mother I wouldn't have been back and again no reason too...best of luck hate to see an empty restaurant, but there is more to this restaurant being empty then just construction going on around new York new York and monte carlo. Best of luck. |
Really gorgeous rooms, great bathrooms...even if we did find a (new!) condom hidden under the telephone. I guess some poor guy didn't get as lucky as he hoped. I agree with most of the reviews that the maid service is generally on the piss-poor side--very inconsistent cleaning times, almost never taking away old dishes in the hall, unfriendly attitude, etc.\n\nThe customer service is really the problem here. This place is obviously just too massive for anyone to really give a damn. We had to call downstairs for extra sheets for the sofa, and had to call back twice because it took close to 2 hours. We called to get a fridge (they charge) and that took hours, too.\n\nWorst of all, like SO MANY reviewers on her, my friend accidentally left her $400 Stuart Weitzman boots in the room...gone, gone, gone. (She had even left a huge tip for the cleaning crew, so oh well.) Based on the other reviews here, I seriously doubt they even HAVE a lost and found. The number of reviews where valuables are **actively stolen while people are simply out of the room**, however, is a huge red flag. I think there is a safe in the closet, but that's hardly comforting.\n\nThe shopping is great here, the faux-Venice canals are fun, the casino is pretty great (I'm not a huge casino person but I thought it was fun)--but yes, the drink service is ABYSMALLY slow in the casino. Sort of pointless really. The pool is also nice, but due to where it is placed, it never received any sun and I honestly don't think it does any time of year. Kind of baffling. The 2 spas are pretty nice, it was just a shame when they were overridden by fratty punks.\n\nVegas has a near-daunting amount of choices, why settle for a place that has these kinds of problems when there are so many BETTER places? |
If I were on my deathbed, I would request to be wheeled over to eat at Bacio because it would feel like a LIFETIME!!!\n\nI dined here because of a $150 food credit. With so many quality restaurants in Las Vegas, the ones at The Tropicana aren't on the top of my list. They're not even on the list.\n\nBut color me surprised when I saw their 4 course tasting menu with wine pairings for only $39. Hey! That made \"restaurant week\" look expensive. It's a shame we didn't even get to the third course after 2+ hours. I felt even worse for the couple from Italy at the next table playing the same waiting game. Why in God's name would actual Italians eat here?!?! \n\nTheir saving grace was that the food I did try was actually decent. The \"Risotto Capesante\" with scallops, asparagus and prosciutto paired with a crispy white wine was surprisingly good. I would've been happy with this dish as all four courses. The \"White Peach\" salad I received over an hour later was also good but the wait made it taste a little less good. My dinner companions ordered a la carte and got the veal parmigiana (huge and juicy) and shrimp risotto 90 minutes after ordering. If they actually got this whole \"serving food in a timely manner\" down, Bacio wouldn't be a half bad place. \n\nWhat the heck was going on in the kitchen?? My guess was the chef suffered from narcolepsy. We had less than 35 minutes to make a 10pm show at Caesars Palace. I spoke with the manager to express my displeasure and he took the 2 course dinners off the bill. The server was super nice, apologetic and took care of a round of drinks too. At least they made an effort to make it right. They then boxed up our last two courses of lobster gnocchi (rubbery) and apple granola cheesecake. The dessert then melted in my car and went straight into the garbage. |
LOVE this place!! Went for halloween weekend, and had a blast!! We thought the line was going to be crazy to get in, but it wasnt that bad we waited at most ten minutes but then again we got there early for anticipation of a long line. The place was packed, the drinks came out fast and the music was great! I really wished they had played some dub but techno is good too! I love how it has the areas inside and then the pool patio area outside!!! And the bathroom has a vanity area so you can fix up your makeup!! I really had a good time and definitely recommend this spot to people who want to have a good time! |
Best sports bar in town bar none. Great food. Golden Tee. Dozens of TVs. No reason to watch a game anywhere else. |
(fyi, originally wrote this review in September 2012, and forgot it was in my drafts! So, as some time has gone by, your mileage may vary. I'm not trying it again just to compare though haha)\n\nI had done some quick research to find some decent ramen places in Montreal, cause I loved having it when I was in Japan and craved it. This place got mentioned a couple of times, and I'm nearby daily so I decided to check it out. Honestly, I was expecting to be disappointed but... This is not ramen at all. The broth is extremely thin and tasteless, the vegetables were precut and the meat precut and precooked, so dry. I found the noodles a bit soggy and the seasoning was just... Pho-like, honestly. I'm disappointed, I really wanted to get my ramen fix, but this is not the place. :( if you've had ramen in Japan, I doubt you will like it here. If you haven't, honestly I'd rather have a good pho or Thai express, pretty similar or better... |
I went here about a year ago and then went again about 5 months ago and both times my noodle (chicken low mein) tasted like dirt water. I don't get it? How do they get that specific dirt taste so perfectly? I gave 2 stars b/c my fiance's dish was good tasting but I don't remember what he had. I just remember thinking, \"this doesn't taste like dirt... so I must like it\". Anyhow, I suppose there is consistency. |
I chose to go here solely based on the way the food was described on the hotel pamphlet and Yelp reviews. It probably would have been a worthy meal if it had just been the cost of the unlimited wristband ($25) plus $15 but this was solely for breakfast ALONE. Dinner prices were the unlimited wristbands ($25) and an additional $25. FLIP WHAT? That's right we paid $50/person to eat here. I was contemplating going somewhere else but after an almost hour wait and reservations at Insert Coins, I already had to push back once, I said forget it. Now if you're not going to eat seafood or high end meat, save your money and go somewhere else.\nI ate 3.5 plates of crab legs, ceviche shooters, shrimp cocktails, mussels and oysters. The other half a plate was pickings from here and there. The one random pick that that I ended up really loving was spicy fish. The fish tasted like it had been marinated in a in seasoning that had a quick but low kick of heat and a splash of salt at the end. I was sad I didn't find it until my last plate but something tells me it wasn't the best thing for you. \nI was so full I didn't really get to try much of the dessert. I had a creme brulee which was fabulous. It was caramelized to perfection on top while being thick and rich in the center. I also grabbed a couple of cookies for the road which were nice to snack on late in the evening after drinking. I would save this buffet for special occasions. I don't know if would ever come back to eat just for the heck of it. The wait alone had me ticked off and starving. |
Wow I'm from southern Arizona and I must say I'm picky about my tacos. This place would take on some of the best! Very pleasant surprise if your in the area and love street tacos you must stop by!! |
I am a Hyatt Platinum member and have never stayed at a Hyatt Place hotel. Let me say, this place was such a great surprise that, in the future, I would almost prefer to stay at a Hyatt Place than a Hyatt Regency! \n\nWhy you ask? This place is new, clean, and quiet (even though the planes at PHX land nearby). They have free WIFI, great TVs with movies and recently- seen TV options, and the rooms are large, have lil' fridges, and a HUGE couch that I found ultra-comfy for doing laptop work. \n\nNo room service but they have a gallery/kiosk/bar where you can order a full meal like roasted chicken, steak salad, pizza, appetizers, dessert and more. The menu looked way healthier than the restaurants nearby ASU about 2 miles away. They also have a small bar area with TVs to hang out or watch sports, a Starbucks Coffee station and a free continental breakfast (you can order a heartier breakfast eggs, bacon, waffles, etc., but you have to pay for it. |
I would definitely recommend this place for vegans and vegetarians. In town for business and tried it for the first time. Lentil soup was the best I've ever had. Sweet and Sour Devine was devine. |
Had a gift card and their $10 coupon for Lobsterfest. This place is getting to be a real dive! It is being remodeled and shows it. About 9 miles away from where we live, and arrived at 4:30 PM on Sunday. Outside was crowded, but were taken in about 5 minutes. I showed pic of $10 coupon and manager said it was okay. We were seated by the back of restaurant and Jason was server. Nice boy! Literally! Husband ordered the stuffed tilapia, sorry, out of it at 4:30 PM! substituted sole. I had the Lobster tail, shrimp scampi, fried shrimps (tiny) and crab legs. Meal arrived, crab legs smelled at the connection where the legs are of iodine. Bad sign, old! Lobster tail overcooked. Husband's dish were 3 or 4 pieces of fish, no stuffing, no lobster! Took back lobster tail, took back husbands fish. Returned with new lobster tail. Couldn't get any meat out of crab legs, Jason put on plastic gloves and took out about a tablespoon of crab out of three legs. Cold! Husband still not getting his meal. When it was finally served, I was just about finished. 2 small pieces of fish wrapped around stuffing, 2 pieces of lobster! no broccoli, just a baked potato. Never got more biscuits either. Gave the server my $50 gift card and a credit card as bill was almost $40 told him to take out $25 from gift card and put rest on credit card. Got back credit card with $23 charged to it. Where is the gift card? Oh, he said \"I threw it in the garbage! Unbelievable!!! He dug it out and gave it back to me and re-did the entire bill. Now it was $25 plus the balance on the credit card. WOW! I went to the bar manager, because I had asked for a manager before getting the bill and she never showed up. The bar manager took the receipts went back to check that I had $25 left on my gift card. Instead, he came back and gave me a NEW card. Wrote to Red Lobster corporate and called up today. Will never go back there again ! Overpriced, incorrect and unbelievable!!! |
tried to call, but they don't pick up the phone. Tried to call the 1-800 # and they kept trying to enroll me in some \"plan\" that I would have to cancel in a couple months. WHY? I just wanted to rent a car! We finally went to the Venetian and had their concierge make the reservation. The girl at the desk was helpful, but they have long lines and one person working. I will never rent from them again. |
I had dinner there the other night. What a pork chop! |
This is easily one of the best Giant Eagles I've ever been to. Huge. Very nice selection. Easily comparable to Whole Foods. Went to their cheese market, and was pleasantly surprised with the selection. I got Beemster Vlaskas, an amazing Gouda. Very large parking lot. |
We were there on a Friday night. Took 10 minutes at least to get the waitress over to our table, and the place was more or less empty. \n\nThe beers were expensive for a pub, and the food was lackluster to say the least. \n\nNot horrible, but a serious MEH. |
Alarmed by two very negative reviews that have been posted recently for this place, I stopped in today for lunch to find out what's going on. They started out just great, back in February, & I've been there a couple of times since & loved the place!\n\nOnce inside, I immediately started diligently looking for the \"Onestarness\" that was reported. Here's the worst I could come up with:\n\n* The hostess was snarky! They need to get here away from the public!\n\n* The P.A. System was blabbing out rap music!\n\n* The Mongolian BBQ didn't have the sauces out where you can put them on yourself, & it's not really set up so that you can talk to the chef to tell him how you want it prepared. I loaded up my plate & turned it in, having topped it only with a little garlic that were accessible there, to see what would happen. What happened was that it came back to me very bland. Not 'bad', but certainly not great like at Chinese Gourmet Buffet, Crazy Buffet, #1 Eastern, etc. Mongolian BBQ is all about the sauces!\n\n* The mashed potatoes were soup! They looked like Cream of Wheat when you first start to cook it! Whoever put that out obviously didn't have any idea what mashed potatoes are!\n\nOk, there's your 1-Star stuff. The story doesn't end there, though! \n\n* After a few minutes, the music changed to soft Chinese instrumental music, just fine for the place! Apparently, the preps had the rap on before opening time.\n\n* When you skip the potato soup, that still leaves you with 101 other trays of food, not counting sauces & dressings, & every bite of it I had room to try was at least ok. The fried chicken was very crispy outside, juicy & tender inside. There were two kinds of bone-in ribs, & both were good. There were lots of shrimp dishes, including tasty bacon-wrapped & rather big breaded fried shrimp, & so on.\n\n* The table service was good, & the cashier (you pay after you eat, here) was sweet & friendly!\n\nSO, down to 3-Stars now for Great China Super Buffet. It's off my favorites list, but I still like the place & this is the worst review I can give it. |
Love this place!!! Has everything for my puppy for cheap. :) A lot of creative stuff in this store. |
Popped in here with Michelle B for a post-jog brunch last Sunday. It's a lovely little space and has some fab art work and jewellery and knick-nacks for sale. Great mixture of seating and tables and a proper turntable and old fashioned vinyl playing in the background. They even encourage you to bring along your own vinyl to play while you're in too, which is a cool idea.\n\nAll looked and seemed promising enough but the food was not good. I had a bacon roll, made with streaky bacon that was so crispy it fractured into hundreds of tiny pieces when I bit into it. Also the roll was not fresh and they'd tried toasting it to make it better. It just crumbled too. Very disappointing. Lashings of red sauce did nothing to improve the texture or flavour.\n\nMichelle opted for a fruit scone. It looked nice but wasn't fresh either. In fact, she said it was soo hard that i she \"sconed\" me with it, she'd need to take me to A&E.\n\nWe did tell the chap who served us, in order to give him an opportunity to rectify matters but he just shrugged it off and presented us with the bill. \n\nThe only redeeming feature was the pot of tea. It was lovely. But it's hard to ruin a pot of tea so I'm not sure how much that goes in his favour.\n\nI'd give it another try on another occassion. I'm not ready to write this place off yet. I'm hoping it was just an off day and the food/service will be better on a future visit. It's got a great location with a fab view of the beach/sea so I hope it does improve. |
The best place in the Southwest for authentic Mexican food at reasonable prices and the view of the city is absolutely spectacular. The service is prompt, friendly, and attentive and the food is superb. Try their mole' chicken....to die for! |
great company! I was quoted rates of $200+, and to rent the equipment and pay someone to do it would have been $150. They showed up, ON TIME, handled it, didnt try to \"up sell \" me on stuff i didnt need! They were professional, easy to deal with and would highly recommend! |
Bar Review! Perhaps one of the best mixology experiences I have had. I asked for a Boxcar and it was heaven in a martini glass. Perhaps the first one done well in many experiences. These guys know how to do classic cocktails. Very professional staff, with a great balance of service and friendliness. Pour on. I'll be back next time I'm in Phoenix! |
I have been to this restaurant 5-6 times and I always enjoy it. My friends from Japan loved it so much too. Their foie gras is wonderful!! Their signature dish, Lobster Curry, is crazy good. I never really care for lobster but this is different. I wish I could make it at home!! I always have issue with their portion...(in a good way). Their portion is pretty decent that I always feel too full after a full course menu!! Sometimes I can't even eat dessert because I'm too full!! I like the ambiance. I would not \"expect\" a window seating as window seatings are limited (does not matter how early you make your reservation.) The view is available from the bar anyway.\n\nAlso, their deserts, especially the mix candy bar.... is AMAZING!\n\nAs far as service goes, I have never had issue personally.I believe it's worth a visit and great place for a great meal! |
Went out for dinner tonight at garcia's. I have been here a few times recently and it is looking a little weathered. Tonight we arrived and waiting in the entrance I noticed that no one bothered to greet me. When it time to be seated they took me to my booth which sad a pretty loud section. After being left at the table we waited a few minutes but noone showed up to get our drink order. At some point someone brought us chips. We waited, decided on our order, chatted and ate chips. While we waited saw other people getting served. Eventually after about fifteen minutes and most of the chips, we decided to leave. On the way out someone tried to take our order but we went to Serrano instead. |
I usually like this place but beware of shrimp tacos. They leave the tail on despite the fact that they fill the taco with goodies. The shrimp was cold and unappetizing as well. |
Awesome place awesome food awesome music, what a great place since they expanded. A must place for a night out on Friday or Saturday. |
There are a lot of people that swear by Babystacks and their love for red velvet pancakes. \n\nI've been to their original location on a few occasions with this being my first one at this one. Good taste the same as the other location. \n\nI usually go with the red velvet pancakes and the adobo omelette. Red velvet pancakes to be honest are ok. Pancake by itself is a bit bland to me but when you mix it with the topping, it makes it taste much, much better. \n\nA lot of people love the adobo omelette as well. It's not bad. It satisfies a craving for some who get that.\n\nOther than that, I give this place an A-Ok. Won't be the last time I visit. |
I come to Courier Cafe pretty regularly. Their burger options are a good bargain. I've always enjoyed their shakes- especially the strawberry or peanut butter. I prefer to get the specials because I go there so often. I had a delicious fish fillet sandwich with a HUGE fillet. Then I got it again, and it was pretty small. I noticed that sometimes the food isn't very consistent. \n\nThe one thing that might surprise you is that their salad bar is AMAZING. I get a huge salad with everything on it. Like a pound of salad for $5.00. Leaves are pretty light, so a pound a salad is prettty huge. |
I tried their pizza on different occasions, different toppings but.... I just don't like it. It's tasteless and somewhat expensive. I always have to add either Parmesan cheese or garlic salt or even just salt! I like my pizza to have more flavor, some spice and Florencia's pizza was not that good. |
The fish was good. But not better than other places in Vegas that have much better service and atmosphere. I'm giving this a 3 because that's what it is--pretty mediocre. It was good, but not a notable sushi place. |
I don't understand all the hype around this place. Yes it was on TV, but so what? \n\nEach time I go I am disappointed by something. For example, the salmon is typically undercooked and lacking seasoning. I love salmon so I tried it a few times hoping it would improve, but it didn't. Last time, instead of salmon I ordered a grilled wedge salad. It was covered in oil which made it inedible. \n\nThey also almost always mess something up in our take out order. Usually it is something small like giving us regular fries instead of garlic fries, but hey, we pay extra for the garlic! It is frustrating. \n\nIn my opinion, the food at the Coffee Shop next door is much better. |
Had to send my food back, pasta was tough and sauce tasted like a can of chef bouyardee... |
I really enjoy eating at Local Dish. A few weeks ago my husband and I took our family there who were visiting the Charlotte area. They loved it! I love the small eclectic atmosphere that they have going on. \n\nI love their shrimp and grits. I dream about those shrimp and grits. They are amazing! Def. get them if you are a fan of shrimp and grits. \n\nI can't say anything about their drink selection as I have been pregnant every time that we have been there.\n\nThe doughnut bread pudding is amazing! LOVE it! |
We had reservations for the patio a few months back. We arrived on time, we seated promptly at a nice table and brought water immediately. However. It went down hill from there fast. Two different servers came up and introduced themselves as our servers. It felt rushed. We gave one our drink order, only to have the other come up and ask what we would like to drink. What...? The wine came a long while later. We put in an order for a jidori chicken appetizer with a server and some guac made table side. Both were good. For dinner we ordered the diver scallops and another chicken item. Right after one server took our order for entrees, another came up and dropped off dessert menus. What...? Did we not get our entree order in? We will never be sure when the entree orders were put in. Did the server forget? Why did we get dessert menus? It took almost an hour for entrees to come out. Which was fine as the appetizers filled us up. But still. Both entrees were good but I've had comparable food with proper service at other places. My scallops were perfect although I realized I wasn't a big fan of the set it was with. Boyfriend liked his chicken. We were planning to get dessert but after all was said and done I was full and completely turned off by the service. Our bill was somewhere around $130 before tip. I've worked fine dining, I'm still a server. This was the worst service I've ever had, not because the people weren't nice but because it was so chaotic and stressful and the energy was reflected onto the guests. Def not worth $160, which is a lot to us. Lastly, I forgot my sweater there and didn't realize until we got home. I called the restaurant and the host said they had it. I gave them my name and number and said I would be in the following day. I went to pick it up the next morning and it was no where to be found. Kind of ridiculous if you ask me. Save your money. There are so many other wonderful restaurants in Old Town with service that isn't so stressful. |
Nothing overwhelming here - seems pretty generic. Food was passable but I have had better. Was more chinese than thai. |
This place used to be awesome there is mold in the gym there is no security. No one is here to clean the property,it is disgusting. They have just fired the concierge service .you will pay a fortune to live here and there's no amenities here. They have commented fraud. Don't move here |
I came in here to get my taco Tuesday on.. Sadly, no deals for taco\n\nI instead found a deal for the breakfast burrito on Tuesday. Got myself a breakfast log and a carne asada for the coworker. Took awhile for them to get my order out. While waiting, I packed up a few spicy sauce and mild for takeout. Pick-up is fairly easy since they have a number system on the receipt. \n\nBack in my office, I unwrapped my log and was amazed already by the size. Took a bite and was burnt by the hotness. Even though it took me 5-10 mins to get back, my log was still hot! Awesome! I am glad they packed it full of eggs, hash, bacon bits. Everything tasted good; mainly because I was starving. I'm sure my coworker was happy too with his, since he devoured his before I even got half way. \n\nPlenty of seating inside the restaurant. Mainly booth seating. Parking may be an issue at lunch rush. I always have a hard time here around noon till 1. |
went here a week ago with my bf. first timers. we got the hotel\nbased on jetted tubs. why mandalay? well, this hotel is the only\none on the strip that has one that fits 2 people comfortably. thats\nthe main reason why. then of course the hotel looks really nice\ninside as far as the pictures & 360 views on their website shows.\nlet me tell you, this hotel is beautiful. yeah the gold, cream, browns\nare very calming colors & looks to be aimed at the older crowd but\nseriously? who cares. this hotels looks alone shits on most of the\nhotels we visited while out there. planet hollywood's casino area\nis more of the younger crowd & its nice & all. but mandalay is just\nso relaxing to be in. we got the 750 gr suite again, mainly for the\njet tub. the time we spent in our room was mainly to fall asleep &\nsoak in the tub. ahhh, i miss it already. the only con i find about this\nhotel is how far down the strip it is. its at the southend of the strip\nso the tram is definatly good use if you dont want to pay for taxis.\n\nthe beach looked like it was nice. we didnt get to go there cause\nit was sprinkling when we went & we werent trying to risk getting\nsick while out there. the shark reef aquarium was smaller than i\nthought it would be but very awesome. the boyfriend is VERY into\nthe underwater world. so the strategically placed illegal fish there\nwas very exciting for him. haha. i love love love the sunken ship\narea. very good variety of turtles, sharks, fish,etc. even the shop\nwas cute. lol. the restaurants we're all very beautiful. we defintaly\nrecommend RM seafood & their crabcakes. the casino area is\npretty big, & the tables had nice dealers. there was only 1 pai gow\npoker table but atleast they had one! HAHA. we're definately going\nback to vegas in a few months. i definately want to come back to\nmandalay but bf wants to explore other hotels as well. we just \nhave to deal with the fact that no other hotels on the strip will have\na jetted tub fit for 2. gaaaaah. =/ ps. the towels smell HELLA good! |
Came here yesterday for lunch. The food tasted fine, like normal taco bell food, but the place wasn't very clean. It looks run down and the customer service wasn't that great.\n\nI'm still giving it 3 stars because the food was made like normal, but I will definitely find a different taco bell to go to next time. |
The first time I came here was on St. Patrick's day, so I figured I'd give them another chance. I was getting sick of the same old at Rula Bula, and was hoping they would be all that Rula was missing.\n\nWe came before a show at the Marquee, and my friend Danielle was drawn right to the raw oysters. She loved them. I had a steak sandwich which was so-so, and I thought the prices were a wee bit high for what you got. They did have a decent beer list, but it's much more of a sit down restaurant then a friendly pub. |
When old men try and be hip it's just sad. I do not expect or like rock music for 16 year olds played for my fine dining. They would do well to focus on the food instead of the 'tude. My foie was way too salty. My steak was tough and not tender at all. Worst fillet in memory. If these guys reduced their prices in half I would accept more rock, but not with my $100 dinner. Would not go back. |
Before a NYE vacation in Scottsdale, I was told that Mastros was a MUST TRY-- and I am SO delighted that we did! I was in with a group of 12, and the food and service were both EXCELLENT! Fortunately, being in a large group allowed us to try a lot of different things.\nI would recommend the following: Shrimp cocktail-- VERY large shrimp and REAL horseradish-- fabulous! Any of the sushi - fresh and great! Bone in filet- many in our group had filets and they were incredible. Lobster tails-- this was my entree and I loved it! Sweet potato mash-- like a dessert! Garlic mash- fabulous! Steamed broccoli and spinach were great sides. \nTo finish your meal, the Butter Cake is an ABSOLUTE MUST-- it melts in your mouth and is definitely big enough to share! |
The Good: Well as others have said, the pizza is pretty good and we had a fairly attentive wait staff. All of our food was pretty good.\n\nThe Bad: The Prices! This is priced like a very upscale restaurant, I definitely had a bit of sticker shock. I found it offensive to have entrees this price that are being served on white paper sheets instead of white table cloth.\n\nWill I go back? I probably will not return for the sit down experience again. Really just too pricey for what we got... I may get some pizza again through the window though. |
Mmmm, i love this pizza....\n\nI have read so many reviews on this place and I just don't understand. Maybe its not the the best pizza in the world, but if I am in the area of either of the Flamingo locations you better believe that's where I am eating! The crust is not to thin and has good flavor. Toppings are not overwhelming nor are they MIA. The salads are a good choice if you don't want pizza and there is plenty more to choose from too. |
Great teachers but the lady in the front doesn't have a friendly attitude! They need better customer service if they expect people to stick around. |
Owner is in the process of converting the restaurant from a sushi place to a Korean restaurant. Green Valley has been sorely missing a good Korean spot...this place definitely fills the void! \n\nFood is great...and meals start with a free Korean meatball/Korean pancake appetizer. Lunch specials are cheap, filling, and delicious. Soondubu and dol sot bi bim bap are good. \n\nThe service puts this place over the top. The owner is awesome -- he's attentive and extremely friendly! When you eat here, you feel like he's your Korean grandfather! He conversed with my kids...they loved him, \n\nDefinitely a spot to check out, and will definitely return -- it's a fun, delicious Korean meal just a couple minutes from my house. Sure beats driving from Henderson to Spring Mountain! |
I came here with my husband a few days ago for restaurant week. We figured this would be a great opportunity to try out a bunch of different restaurants before we decide which are worth fully indulging in later.\n\nWe started out with the onion soup and what was supposed to be a Cesar salad, which it was not(we will get to that later). The onion soup I did not care for(although I LOVE onions), nor did the people at the two tables beside me apparently.....The salad I had, the garbage salad, however was quite a delicious mix of flavors. The ribeye steak itself was delicious , very flavor packed. It is probably one of the better steaks I've had compared to the numerous pricey steaks I've had at other fine dining restaurants. For dessert we had mini tiramisu, strawberry cheesecake, and pecan pie tasters. Those were delicious as well.\n\nNow as to why I deducted two stars. When we first arrived, our waiter said dessert would be profiteroles for the night. Great, I love profiteroles....but that's not what we ended up with!....what a bummer. Second, when we received our appetizer soup and salads we were supposed to have Cesar salads, as he set down our plates he even said 'Cesar salad'! But instead we had what I now know as the garbage salad. Clearly cesar salad does not have salami, shrimp, artichokes, shallots, olives, and blue cheese in it. Third, when our rib-eyes came out they were accompanied with a mushroom with a stem of rosemary poked through...he said it was a horseradish stem!......I myself cook regularly and knew that was not a horseradish stem. I was quite appalled at how he tried to pass off his lack of knowledge and attention to detail on us. I sat there in confusion as we received each part of our meal and each time I had to check with my husband that I heard what I heard. Our server honestly didn't look like he cared for his job as he was too distracted by the preseason NFL games on TV near the back of the restaurant and he sure didn't check on us during our meal or ask if we were enjoying our food. \n\nNonetheless, the food was spectacular but the service was quite poor due to our waiter. |
This is a really nice place. Looks very clean, bright and they may be making cosmetic improvements. The machines are nice and there are 3-4 different sized washers available. \n\nThe coin less card system is the only downside. Especially if you're not a regular. I now have a laundry debit card full of credits that I can't use for a while as I have my own w/d at home and only came to wash my bed spread. Guess I can load up some linens or towels to get done at once. \n\nI'll be back, not only because I have to, to use up my card, but it's a clean place and the very first laundromat I've been in that didn't have roaches creeping around or bums begging for money. Bonus! |
I attend a lot of concerts and I think I can safely say this is the last one I'm going to attend at The Marquee. The acoustics are not wonderful but are acceptable. \n\nMy main problem is that the slope of the floor from the stage to the back is small enough that I cannot see behind the throng of people watching the show through their phones (WHY!?!?!). They used to do a VIP area which was a nice option but I haven't seen it for several shows. \n\nDrinks are overpriced but that's to be expected. I like the intimacy of it but don't really want to spend another concert trying to see around peoples' phones. |
After an hour and a half at this museum you would have thought I was simply torturing my 6 and 8 year old girls. I may have enjoyed it more if I were not with them. Even with the audio starting when you walk up to an exhibit they were bored. Though they did enjoy replicating some of the dancing from other countries.\n\nThe hands on room was the only room they enjoyed but even that only lasted 1/2 an hour or so. \n\nI thought the museum was expensive and I have to agree that the staff was not warm and fuzzy nor kid friendly.\n\nI was disappointed because I had heard so many wonderful things about this place that I had been looking forward to going for a long time.\n\nOh well, back the the Science Center we go. |
Not worth the money. Lamb rack too sweet, too much alcohol in obster chowder. This is what happens when there's over crowded people in the restaurant that quality suffers. |
Terrible food, too much salt in the dishes. Nothing is mild, everything we ate was chili pepper spicy. I know indian food is spicy, but the dishes here were unbearable. |
The customer service at the place was horrible. The other day I stop by before I went to work. I walked into an empty restaurant, which worked out perfectly because I was in a bit of a hurry. I spent about 3 mintues looking at the menu as the women behind the counter was in conversation with another customer who had already ordered. \n\nOnce I walked up to the counter to present my order I realize that the women behind the counter was also on the phone, which I assumed she was on hold or something because she wasn't talking and asked if I was ready to order. I said 'yes' and told her my order, but half way through placing my order she put her finger up asking me to hold as she grabbed a pen and pad as she began writing stuff down. I back away to respect her privacy as I thought it was either a personal or business call. \n\nAfter about 5 minutes she then hung up the phone and ask for my order a second time. As I told her my order I then asked her if they cook their food with any type of fish or peanuts since I am highly allergic. She said that they cook with no peanuts but they do cook salmon. She proceed to tell me that the salmon is cooked on the grill and my order that I place will have to go on that same grill. I asked if there is a way you can clean off the grill or cook it a different way and she said 'No we can't, that is just they way it's cooked'. \n\nIn a way I was a bit shocked, one, the fact that they are willing to lose a customer so quickly and two, it seemed like there was absolutely no other way around cooking my order differently.\n\nI responded with a long drawn out 'Okay'. The women behind the counter then responded by saying she didn't want to have liability of me getting sick. Which in a way I see where she is coming from, but then again I am a paying customer.\n\nIn conclusion I have heard good things about this place and people I know rave about their bowls, I may have had just a bad experience, but I know I will not come back to this place again. |
A friend of my wife and mine recommended this place to us saying that the meatloaf sandwich was wonderful. I'm always looking for something 'new' and different so after my wife had her hair done next door to the Amuse, we decided that because we were in the neighborhood, we'd give it a try.\n\nThe placed looked nice, it was small, clean and we were the only customers in the place at about 1:00PM. There was an elderly man there (I think he was related to the owners and he was baby sitting for a 5 yr old girl). At any rate, he was not eating, just baby sitting.\n\nThe menu is sparse with only 6 featured items and then a few other items like a vegetarian sandwich and a soup of the day. I wish I had taken the soup of the day (Creamed Green Chili) but unfortunately, I had the 1/2 lb hamburger called The Cabernet Burger because it's flavored with a Cabernet wine. I'm sure that a lot of people would like this burger but it just wasn't for me. I'm not sure if there was too much wine in the burger or if the meat was just too greasy because the bottom half of the bun was soaked with something - either grease or wine oozing from the hamburger meat. In all honesty, I did eat 1/2 of this huge monster of a burger and 1/2 of the fries - that would be the half that weren't overly deep fried and hard as wood.\n\nMy wife had the Quiche Lorraine that comes with a salad and was supposed to have balsamic vinaigrette but to me, it looked like they forgot to add the dressing or if it was supposed to be on the side and they forgot to bring the dressing with the meal. My wife passed on eating the quiche because it was a little runny for her taste. Quiche has to be baked for about a half an hour and then it has to set for a little while before being cut and served. It is my guess that this quiche was baked much earlier in the day and then left out under a heat lamp. It looked like the egg / custard mix was starting to 'melt' and as it did, the crust began to get soggy. \n\nSo, we paid about $22 bucks for half a burger a dry salad and a glass of tea. Unlike our friend that recommended the Amuse to us, I will steer our friends away from this not so good place. |
I used to dine in but now mostly run in during lunch time and grab a to-go box. The selection is always fresh. On several occasions, the food handlers have cooked me a special batch of whatever I asked for that was either low or almost finished. (Just last week the food handler had the cook make me 6 fresh sesame balls since it was close to dinner time, there were only 2 left in the serving dish, and they don't typically offer them to the dinner crowd.) One of my favorite lunch stops during the week. |
Top choice for pizza in the Biltmore area for sure. So good! The ambiance is great, perfect for a date or small group. \n\nThis is the kind of place where you want to order a bottle of wine and an appetizer, hang out for a while, get and share a pizza, hang out for a while, get and share another pizza... you get the idea.\n\nI forget exactly what we ordered, but I do remember getting the night's special pizza and being absolutely blown away. The service was awesome, the type where you want to become friends with the staff. And the food top-notch.\n\nFree valet parking, great atmosphere, great wine... although I take no credit for choosing. That's my job when it comes to pizza, and I can do my job quite well here. |
Friendly service, clean and modern interior, good noodles! Dan Dan noodles wasn't spicy enough for my taste but I'm coming back for more. |
lmao so I have a nickname for this IHOP. I call them the (DO-OVER) I've been in a few times. And no matter what I get breakfast or lunch it's always great after they make it the 2nd time around. I have no idea why they can't get it correct the first time however after the do over its great. They get three stars from me total. I did provide pictures. The over all service is just ok however once the employees saw me doing a review on yelp they did pick the service up. My group went from not being seen to over kill service once we got our food noone asked us if we needed anything at all. But once they seen me on yelp...it was...oh can I get you something anything at all lmao. Like they asked us this 60,000 times. AFTER THEY SEEN ME ON YELP...Id like to stress that very much. Will I return? Maybe. |
This is the 3rd time we've been to Delmonico & honestly, it keeps getting better! The service is top notch. Our servers were on top of everything but not intrusive & the manager, Rene, was friendly & knowledgeable about all aspects of the restaurant. For our appetizers, we had oysters on the 1/2 shell, wilted spinach salad & heirloom tomato soup. All we're yummy. We've come to realize that splitting a steak between 3 people is the way to go. In the past, half our steak would go to waste as these steaks are huge! We split a bone in ribeye and there was still a couple of pieces left over. The reason you get so full is because the sides at Delmonico are out of this world! This time around we had the potatoes au gratin, creamed spinach & creamed corn. I could make a meal on Delmonico side dishes alone - they're that good! While they've served up delicious desserts in the past (what? No more bread pudding?), we just didn't have room for dessert this time. I can't wait until we are back in Vegas again & have the time to stop by this gem of a restaurant. It's true culinary bliss! |
The chef and his staff are very savvy about gluten issues (and other food allergies) and will go to great lengths to make sure you feel safe and secure while dining. |
We make it here atleast once a month for AYCE. Their rolls are amazing! The lobster roll is one of my favorites. After going here for the past 3-4 years they always manage to do something wrong... From bad service to wrong orders never have I came here without a problem. If it wasn't for their food I wouldn't ever bother coming here. \n\nOrdered the Muscles they came out burnt, ordered a few rolls took about 30 mins, forgot one of our orders. I'm just waiting for the day we come here and walk away without a problem. It's been almost 4 years and still haven't experienced it. |
I frequent this F&E because I work in this neighborhood and it's sadly one of the only grocery stores within a 3 mile radius. Literally. It's your typical F&E, pretty well stocked and lots of great lunch selections-hot and cold. They recently discontinued one of my F&E staples, a spicy mac and cheese that hit the spot on days when work was giving me reason to drink and I had to substitute with food. \n\nThe employees are ok, helpful for the most part but the patrons are the type of people who shouldn't be using the self-checkout system. That's all I'll say about that. \n\nThey always have discounted wine (I should know) and a decent selection overall. My favorite thing at F&E is their store brand roasted banana gelato. I have a theory that everything can be made better when you roast it and bananas are no exception. Take creamy gelato and mix in a slight hint of banana with a lot of caramelized goodness and you'll have to work really hard not to take out the whole container in one sitting. \n\nMy other F&E staples include the Italian deli salad, southwest Caesar chicken salad and the buffalo chicken wrap. None of them are extraordinarily good, but do the trick when you need a quick fix for lunch. |
My favorite Starbucks. Not sure what makes this one special, but they seem to be very consistent with their drinks and all the baristas and cashiers are friendly. I'm a chai fan, and they seem to always get my drink just right (which I can't say about other locations). \n\nThere's not a lot of seats though, and most that are there are right beside where everyone walks, so there's not really any good place to meet or enjoy a drink. When the weather is nice you can sit outside, which may be a better option for those that like to stay on premise. |
I love the idea of a pizza place where you can customize your own personal size pizza and have it ready in just a few minutes. Unfortunately, I found it much more appealing in theory than in practice. Going down the assembly line was very chaotic; since they place was so crowded they were really trying to hustle. The counter for the toppings was kind of a mess and I found it a little unappetizing to watch the plastic gloved hands dipping in and out of all of the bins. There was a lot of cross contamination going on. The meats were also not very appealing since they were mostly ground up into a crumble (presumably so it would heat up faster). I did enjoy the capricola ham but my hubby was pretty disappointed in the unidentifiable meat they referred to as \"steak\". The dining area was equally crowded and messy. There isn't really any organization to the way they have set up the tables and chairs... they are just kind of thrown together in the middle of the room and it is very difficult to maneuver between them. We opted to sit outside but I am sure the booths would be comfy on a day with less people there (not many of those so they were all taken).\n\nThe pizza was actually pretty tasty but not good enough that I would go out of my way for it. But if I needed a fast food lunch then I'd choose this over a burger place any day. I would not come again for dinner though... it is definitely not a sit down dinner type of place. I may give them another shot after the new restaurant buzz dies down. |
Merchant is one of my top 3 places to go to. All the bartenders make me feel welcomed. Two weeks ago was the first time I actually sat at a table ever. I always sit at the bar by myself or come dancing on the weekend to get loose. Haha. Serves was great but was longing to sit at the bar. Every time I go Something about the place makes me feel like I can wear my black beanie and \"run this world\". |
I'm a share holder here and I honestly would say....\"DO NOT PURCHASE\" this time share. I've had several issues with them and it seems like they are just out for your money. I pay maintenance fees every three months so why are there ROACHES here? Seriously, I took pictures and wanted to take it further but didn't. The next time I come across something like this, I will post the pictures. The place looks nice but it is not worth the headache. Payed the entire loan and 6months later, they began blowing up my phone saying I had a $374 balance. LMAO.......wow! They figured it out and took care of it after a month of harassing me. It's just been a rough ride with these people. Trust me. |
I had high hopes walking into Miyagi's on a weeknight a few months back. I was met with a pretty average experience. I don't think the Mr was too impressed with the sushi, which made sense when we were informed that their sushi chef was only in on the weekends.\n\nService was good, although when we were there it wasn't very busy.\n\nA friend ordered the Korean barbecue and really enjoyed it. But be warned, it's not like North Carolina BBQ. ;) \n\nI went with the Bibimbap with tofu, and that was the clear winner of the evening. So many well-balanced flavors and textures! It came with an additional sauce that was something like ketchup, but I didn't end up using it. It was very filling.\n\nHonestly, I will come back for the Bibimbap (or bibimbop). |
Absolutely crap!!! I dont understand how a place can be so busy but have such terrible food and selection. My daughter wanted Lasagna but nope! Not on the menu. My food was cold and lacked flavor, my wife had a piece of hair in hers...the wine was good and the bread was ok. But there are way better Italian restaurants out there...try it out but I am not impressed. I would rather eat at Carrabbas. Never again! |
I've been to La Brioche: True Food in the past and enjoyed brunch, though, like other reviewers seem to say, it is overpriced for what you get. I made a reservation for graduation to celebrate with my family, since graduation was on a Sunday morning, I knew I would be competing with the brunch crowd. When I made the reservation for 10, they took my name and told me that the manager would call to confirm. I was in there the next day for coffee anyway and still hadn't heard back about my reservation. I checked with the hostess and she went behind the counter and checked a book, came back and told me that my reservation was confirmed for 1:00 on Sunday. I show up with my out-of-town family in tow, and they had lost my reservation! And to top it off, the hostess was rude and dismissive. I was a loyal customer, but I won't be back! I don't have time for bitchy waitstaff and hostesses. I work in the restaurant industry and put my best face forward at work, these people should too. Management: Get your crap together! |
\"Get fcuked up, and eat pizza\" - Old Eugine Proverb\n\nSome old Chinese fool tried to jack that shit from me and use it as his own.\n\nI'm going to lay it down on how to get to this place. Do not deviate from these directions.\n\n-Walk by all the squealing Asian girls coming out of the club that think they're cuter than they actually are. Actually...thinking they're cute at all is wrong.\n-Five steps past the white girls riding the escalator barefoot. \n-Make a right when you see the Latinas showing off their newly acquired neck art ... hickies.\n-And when you see an angry black chick....run the other way. Fcuk the pizza.\n\nWas the pizza really that good? I don't remember. My buddy liked it. I guess I did too. Not as much as the Reyka tonics I was guzzling down at a frantic pace earlier. Evidently I waxed two slices, made it back to the room, and gracefully blacked out. I woke up in the middle of the night with a shivering case of mud butt. That means two things: \n\n1. It was greasy\n2. It was good\n\nI do faintly recall burping up pepperoncinis while on the throne. I love those things. Both the pepperoncinis and the porcelain La-Z-Boy.\n\n4 gleaming stars might be a bit too generous, but hell, aren't you all generous and shit when you get shitfaced? \n\nYeah...thought so. |
I have eaten at this restaurant multiple times and have not been disappointed yet. I typically order the student special ($5 chicken teriyaki and a drink) but the rest of the menu is fantastic as well.\n\nFrom the Kalua pig to the spam musubi, the food is flavorful and filling. The prices are reasonable and the amount of food you receive makes for wonderful next day leftovers.\n\nThis is one of those restaurants that after eating I always ask myself: \"why don't I go here more often?\" Good prices and even better food, I couldn't ask for more out of a restaurant. |
Wonderful off strip location. If you don't like house music you are not going to like this place. It is loud and brash, intended for a younger audience.\n\nThe pool is nice and well maintained. They have lounge chairs and you can just chill by the pool. I really liked spending time at the pool/\n\nThe spa and gym is just okay. Green Valley Ranch Spa is definitely better than here. The fitness center is quite small but it will get the job done. On a couple of the mornings it got crowded so you may want to get up a little earlier to beat the crowd.\n\nThe casino is not glitzy and is definitely more subdued than what people are used to on the strip. For me I can do with blinking lights and obnoxious people. The sports book is really nice, if not one of the best in the Las Vegas.\n\nRed Rock is not meant for children, it might be hit or miss for them feeling a bit out of place depending on their age. I would have to ever so-slightly perhaps even cautiously recommend against children here. Read other reviews to see if they will be a fit. There is a movie theater and arcade they can waste some time in as well.\n\nAvoid the Mexican restaurant called Cabo Mexican Restaurant.. The food court has lots of options that will save you money. All the other food and restaurants were good. They even have a Starbucks for those of you who need a quick fix.\n\nThe rooms are fresh and have a good aesthetic to them. TV's even have HDMI in ports, which makes hooking up your netbook to watch a flick pretty easy. There are TVs in the bathroom in the mirror.\n\nYou won't miss the strip after a weekend here. |
What's not to like about this place other than the long wait times? Very creative and near perfect execution. Only slight complaint is meat usually too done for my liking, but I prefer my beef walk to the table after a quick tatoo from the grill. Flavor still topnotch. Nice to stumble on a place in the burgh that cares about quality. They could hold their even own in Houston & Austin. |
I think Panchero's is still a solid 3-star place, but in general I've noticed that the staff are more upbeat and pleasant to interact with since my last review. I don't really feel like the burritos I get are super consistent--sometimes it's really really good, sometimes it just seems off. Not sure why. I got a chicken burrito the other day with my usual hot tomatillo salsa and for some reason it was ungodly spicy (which it's never been before) and my esophagus was burning the rest of the night. Yikes. Not sure what changed, but I've never had that experience and I pretty much order the same thing every time. |
Coming from NY, I may have pretty high expectations for Chinese food. However, I want to like this place. I've even gave it two shots, but both times I was left extremely disappointed. Lucky Kitchen does have a friendly staff, but their food completely misses the mark. We ordered sesame chicken, lo mein, dumplings, egg rolls and rice. We got super salty fried balls of something, soy sauce-soaked noodles, and a decent pair of (free) egg rolls. I'll be honest, the only good thing about our meal was that we ate it at home (the decor in this place is seriously lacking too). I really don't like leaving negative reviews, but I want to let everyone know that there are SO many better places to spend your money and actually ENJOY what you're putting in your mouth. Although this place is close to where I live, I will not be coming back.\n\nOverall, if you're in the mood for Chinese food, go elsewhere. |
i understand this is an old school place, and they even have a musical named after it ( see the poster outside the store). But after trying the most famous corn beef sandwich, i really couldn't understand what's so hype about this place. The meat is not very moist and lack of flavor, maybe their old owner had a better recipe?\n\nnot going back again for sure. but as a tourist, maybe u should still give it a chance just to review the history~~ |
how fun is this place!!!! A construction zone where you can do an obstacle course and challenge your friends! Things that you would never think you would do like operate a bulldozer you do here! I recommend not to go on a windy day when the dirt flies every where. Be safe! |
