My inner Vietnamese Pho snob wants to give this place 3 stars. My hungry Vegas cheap college student wants to give this place 4. So let's settle for 3.5.\n\nParking: nice little private lot right in front. Yay I love vegas, you never have trouble looking for parking like in LA.\nService: very attentive. They have a freaking army of servers even at 1AM. I was very mindblown. They came by to refill water once or twice, gave us an excess of lemons when we asked for more lol . \nFood: definitely the best.pho.ever. A very big bowl contains not that much noodles and beef. But I very much enjoyed the warm comfort food at 1AM in the cold dessert weather after clubbing. MMM MMM MMM. Prices are a little jacked up.... but we have to deal because there aren't that many pho places close to the Strip that are open late-nights. Very FRESH and clean bean sprouts. I was very impressed! All the legit leaves were there too!\n\nWe paid and were about to leave. DUN DUN. Ice and Coco for E's Ice Loves Coco came in. THEY EAT PHO?!?! Mindblown part 2. Just for that, I gave Kim Long the extra half a star for their coolness! Will be back the next time I'm hungry for some cheap eats late at night in Sin City :)


AMAZING PEOPLE! They provide great services in grooming and boarding, and today they just warmed my heart. They donated their time to help an abandoned dog, on a holiday no less. If your looking for exceptional care and people to groom or board your loved furry friends, Planet Petopia is it!!!!!


Ok so given these are all people from out of town who wrote reviews on this place. Let me talk to you about the Tattoo culture. The artists here aren't bad. This is however a tourist trap. They don't even schedule tattoos right. Plus they don't quote you right. They have ripped people off. 200 dollars to get small lettering that took 45 min? Are you kidding me. Yea it got popular because of the show. But seriously. For people who really are into tattoos. This is just a trendy hodge podge of people who rip people off. Do you think they use the best and brightest inks? What did they tell you put lotion on it. It'll look good when it's healed. Don't pick it. Yea their tattoos are pretty good. Most of the time. But you're also looking in books. Anyone can trace or color by number. Well mostly anyone. Seriously save your money. Go somewhere where they will care and talk you out of stupid mistakes. Research your tattoo before you do something stupid and regret it.


Great food and a comfortable bar area, even with kids.


I love The Evening Muse. Such an intimate venue in the heart of NoDa. \n\nGreat place to catch a duo on tour or head over on Mondays for open mic. Seen many a show here and have never been disappointed. You can't go wrong with the bar either. A few local options and all come in venue-friendly bottles. Beware: there is a tab limit if you're using a card. I think its $6, unless it has changed recently. \n\nIt's a great place to stop in and take a load off. Listen to the local talent and take in the arts district. There are typically seats put out for all but its even better when it's standing room only. You can pack a surprisingly large group of people in this little place. \n\nYou can buy tickets ahead of time on their website, too. Don't always have to pay at the door. \n\nYou can't go wrong with The Evening Muse. What a great place for music, poetry and general assembly of beer-craving locals!


They handle large groups well. We had about 20 and it went off without a hitch: checks were separated with ease, orders were correct, and service (on a non-busy night) was perfect.\n\nOne thing to avoid: \"Taj Mahal\" brand beer.  \"Brewed for Connoisseurs\" my ass. Per born-on date, it was brewed 8 months ago. It was apparently then shipped on the poop deck of a shit raft from the smelly part of India to the smelly part of the US and along the way exposed to the sun as much as possible. What I am trying to say is that it was as skunky of a beer as I have tasted since high school.


We waited almost an hour to be seated when there were only 3 groups in front of us in line. We got the shrimp wonton soup and some chowmein. I thought the food was boring. I dropped a shrimp wonton in my lap and our server, who was taking an order at the table next to us, stopped what he was doing to point and laugh at me, then finished talking to the table and didnt even stop by to offer me a napkin. When I stopped him later to ask for one he acted put out. They charged us for our tea, and it was gross. I thought the food was boring, and wayyyy overpriced. They dont even put vegetables in their chowmein. \nI would have only given them one star because I hated the whole experience, but I had to add a star because my husband was happy with getting a chance to sit down and eat what he called simple food. It made him happy so they earn a star.


Another great place to stop by while trolling the Las Vegas Strip.  If you ever wondered where you could buy Coca-Cola inspired clothing, including shirts, hoodies, pants and boxers, this is your spot!\n\nOn the second floor, there is a cafe where you can order different flavors of Coke.  I was tempted to try the different flavors from around the world, but didn't have the time.  I'll try this out on my next visit to Vegas.


I wish I could give this place 2 1/2 stars. I think that's more fitting. I've been there twice and the first time I had a pretty good experience. I went with a couple of girl friends, and we took our time, ordered several different things, and even had a birthday dessert brought to us. I remember our waitress being EXCELLENT and I don't recall it being crowded or noisy. \n\nThis past weekend, I went again, and things were a bit different. The sushi we ordered was not much better than cheaper places I've been and definitely not my favorite. I don't see where it was worth all the hype. If you're looking to try something new and out of the box, I think this is a good place to do it but if you're a fan of the traditional sushi that you can find anywhere, this is probably not the place. \n\nThis will most likely be the last time I go to Nobu...not because I HATED the food, but because I really dislike the clientele. Too many snooty drunk people, talking way too loudly. I couldn't even have a conversation with my friends. The waiter had a very heavy accent which made it near impossible to understand what he was saying. Not really his fault, but because of the loud groups of people nearby, it was pretty unbearable. \n\nLike my friend said, it was just \"ok.\" I was expecting more and walked away more annoyed than anything.


My son happened to get sick on a Friday night. I am a nurse so I assessed my child and reported my findings to the medical office assistant. The doctor on that night repeated my findings back to me. The end. What? Nothing, no labs, no meds, nothing. I was told to basically wait it out. I left worried sick, having to wait until Monday morning to see our regular pedi. On Monday our pediatrician was horrified that nothing was done. My son needed an aggressive antibiotic treatment that should have been started that day, even prophyllactically as his condition ended up being time sensitive. Then they bill our insurance for a crazy amount. Honestly folks, you're better off taking your kid to the ER, at least they'll get real care there and you'll probably wait less too. I'm disgusted that they charged such a hefty amount for nothing.


Outstanding customer service! From the moment we arrived to pick up to the moment we left to head back to the airport, I cannot speak enough to the speed and customer service here.\n\nYou are immediately greeted by your own \"service associate\" who holds the door open, walks you in, takes you to your own terminal, and works with another associate to rapidly get all the paperwork taken care of.\n\nWe were then taken to our car, and a few minutes later on our way. Same thing upon return, super quick check-out and a shuttle bus waiting to take us to the airport. It's a 5-min trip to the terminal.\n\nI've rented a lot of cars, this team was most impressive on that morning.


2.75/5 underwhelming. \n\ni'm generally not a fan of mexican food, so this may be an unfair review, but oh well.\n\nwhenever i think of mexican, i think of bold flavors, hearty, tender meats and sauces and creams and yum! this food was meh. nothing particularly great, it could have been wrapped in foil and i could have probably gotten it off a cart somewhere.\n\ni think there's also something to be said when proportions are off. there was a lot of food, but i also got this huge tortilla bowl full of sour cream...just unnecessary. also, if the food needs that much, i think that speaks poorly to the quality of the steak fajita i ordered.\n\noverall, the food wasn't very memorable, which was reflective of a fairly boring menu as well.


Found my new fav. Boba spot! I tried their  number one seller 'wow milk'... And WOW is right. Love it with the herbal jelly... The honey boba is also very delicious on its own. This place is fresh and great for these summer days in Vegas! If you're e craving a delicious cup of Boba and some kun fu clips, this place is must go!!!\n\n\nNeed I say the service is also very good? If we are unhappy with our drinks they would be glad to remake it. Not like I need that option anyway...


So. Much. Potential. With a long history in the food service industry, I am always sure to give a restaurant the benefit of the doubt, but Bakersfield has swung very hard, come very close, and missed. \n\nI've had a taco before, believe it or not, and this particular taco was certainly above average. The problem here lies with the atmosphere and service. My party placed their orders... Actually... Screamed their orders over the music (which was cranked to 11). When the food finally arrived, it was presented on one large tray and left to us to decipher what was what and whose was whose. \n\nI didn't mind the food, but the margarita was pretty weak, and the overall experience lacked polish and enthusiasm.\n\nI wish I could say I'll be back, as the restaurant's concept and mission are something I look for in a dining experience. However, the overall experience was a huge letdown... My future Mexican outings will be to Paco's Tacos.


I ordered the Traditional eggs Benedict. it came out very quickly. The hollandaise sauce lacks traditional taste and actually had a very odd taste. not sure what the odd taste was but it was odd. i requested the hash browns extra crispy which only came out crispy on one side and wasn't even cooked on the bottom so they were basically half cooked and mushy in the middle. yuck! i could only choke down half the plate. the coffee is pretty bitter as well. 1 star and that's being generous.


I have never had bad service at this location. The food is always spot on and I am greeted with a friendly hostess. Last night I went and no one greeted me, the service was slow (because they were busy and only had three waiters on) AND I still left satisfied. Alicia really helped us out and did a great job keeping our waters full and our food came as promptly as it could. GREAT customer service will keep me coming back to this location. \nPlus THUMBS UP for the new decor!


Mixed....success depends on your agenda for that day.  Busy, popping, happening and great band - scores high.  Other scores average.  Went there last night (Sat) with two girlfriends (6:30pm).  Sound system was so loud we couldn't talk to each other and couldn't really have a good discussion with waitress re recommendations.  Shared antipassi.  Had we understood more about how blockbuster good it is we would have selected all the options and just had that.  I asked the waitress to recommend Shrimp salad vs tuna salad and was shocked when she said shrimp because if tuna salad is served seared normally kicks shrimp's ass.  Two of us ordered it and were terribly disappointed.  I agree with another yelper it was a tiny fried popcorn shrimp salad.  I also agree with another yelper - the place is inconsistent.  They need some mystery diners to fine tune their offering.  All that being said I will go again with another group of people and have a totally different experience because we will choose to sit at the bar and drink, snack on the antipassi and listen to music.


Sweet Pea and I decided on one recent night to rail down to Churn and see what all of the fuss was about. We'd heard a lot about it and its restaurant counterpart, Windsor. Bottom line, it was good ice cream. It was not swoon-worthy. I will not be getting in my car making a mad late night ice cream run just to get Churn ice cream. But, although I am definitely an ice cream person, I couldn't really imagine myself doing that for any particular place's ice cream. \n\nWe had no crystallization issues like other reviewers mentioned- the texture was good, heavy, creamy. I tried the Madagascar vanilla, which was rich and vanilla-y as you'd expect, but I ended up ordering the coconut, in a cup, with the salted caramel topping. Both the ice cream and the topping were good. The one thing I will say about the salted caramel (and I REALLY like salted caramel) was that it was overpowering in terms of flavor. Next time I'd probably just get it with the vanilla. Or maybe chocolate if I felt frisky. And I really want to try that pretzel cone thing they have there, man that looked awesome. Sweet Pea tried the bubble gum and ended up with the blackberry with salted caramel (yeah...\"interesting\" choice there Sweet Pea) and had the same impressions pretty much that I did. It was good. He did keep saying over and over again that the bubble gum flavor was delightful and that next time he was going to order it. \n\nI will say that the reviewer that commented in the vast disparity between scoop sizes was right on. Sweet Pea's was 1.5 to 2 times larger than mine. \n\nThe atmosphere is cute. Sweet Pea did not like the layout, because the place gets quite busy, and there is no organized line nor even a really good area for everyone to stand in. It's pretty narrow and people get bunched up. On (kind of) an aside: is it me, or are these hipster places becoming interchangeable? It feels kinda beautiful, but soulless. I'm ready for the next thing.


We came late on a Saturday night and did not have to wait at all.\n\nThe service was both up and down. We had some staff who were incredibly friendly and out going while our main waitress was gruffy and looked like she wanted to beat someone up but her mood seemed to lighten up towards the end.\n\nTheir gyozas were good, and I ordered their Ajo or garlic ramen as my main. If you love garlic, you will enjoy this dish as much as I do though I might not suggest this dish for a first date, unless you bring some gum! The portions are large, the meat/egg and vegetables were cooked fine, and the broth itself had dried garlic chips and a handful of whole garlic cloves so you will be all about garlic.\n\nThis was perfect for a cold night, and BYOB.


Very disappointed! My husband and mother went to go pick up burgers for dinner.. Since I am 9 months pregnant and not in the mood to go eat out somewhere. They ordered our food and brought it home. They neglected to  give them all of the orders and we didn't realize this until they got home. To top it off it was my order they left out! The milkshake we got basically was this... Flavored milk... And for charging $4 something for the Oreo chocolate shake that is unacceptable! So my husband is  enroute to go fix the issue meanwhile his dinner is getting cold! We tried to call the store and no one answers but it gives you an option to speak with headquarters.. What good will that do?! Ugh. Will most likely not be returning to this smash burger!


Not a good place to go. Worst service. Waiting times. After waiting  one hour and forty five minutes food arrives but no more drinks.  to bad this is a new location not planing to go back any time soon ...


My favorite Starbucks in the valley, always a warm and friendly staff and the only store that remembers me even tho I only go through the drive thru. This is the only store that I go to when I want my favorite drink (5 shot Americano in a trente cup), no other store will make this for me. I love this store, thank you to that crew! You guys are awesome!


Downtown Mesa isn't normally known for higher quality food or destination restaurants, but Il Vinaio is looking to buck that trend. It doesn't look like much from the outside and resides in an older building which resembles a diner built circa 1965. Inside, however, is a whole different story. \n\nThe restaurant has a large area in the middle that is mainly open and provides room for the live music. The upper part of the central area has wine related quotes on the walls. It's a nice touch and it adds some airiness to the layout. On either side of this central area is more seating. The tables are cozy and some even have small loveseat-like benched pulled up to them on one side. This was a nice touch and my date and I were able to sit next side by side and view the band (and each other) well. That set up is also conducive for sharing food.\n\nThere is a bar in the back corner of the restaurant and that seemed to be the most popular spot because there were only a few other patrons in the restaurant outside of the bar area (pretty empty for a Friday night). The live music is a nice touch, but it can get a little loud, so I'd recommend sitting away from the center of the restaurant if you want any chance of carrying on a conversation.\n\nThe wine list is a nice size and is good quality overall. Prices were kind of all over the map: from 1.5 - 3.0x retail. I was pleasantly surprised to see a Consilience Syrah on the menu ($11/glass), so we ordered that. It was absolutely lovely, with rich fruit and a smooth, lingering finish.\n\nThe food is basically a hodgepodge of Italian meets Greek meets Spanish combined with a little bit of whatever the chef feels like today. The menu broken in to Starters (apps and salads) and Entrees (fish, meat, and pasta dishes). As you know, I'm a fan of sharing food because it means you get to try more from the menu. Here's a rundown of what we ordered:\n\n    * Classico Bruschetta - This was pretty much what you'd expect ingredient-wise: tomatoes, garlic, basil, and Parmesan on toasted bread. However, this was probably the best bruschetta I've ever eaten (and I've had my share, trust me). The bread was toasted perfected in olive oil; slightly crunchy on the outside, yet soft in the middle. The tomatoes were so juicy and flavorful that we were fighting over them. The one warning I will give is that there is no lack of garlic on this.\n    *  Caesar Salad - Perfect size for sharing. This came with more of those yummy diced tomatoes on top, which I like on a Caesar. The dressing was very nice, with just enough pureed anchovies and garlic to give it a little kick without killing it. Croutons were good, but not great.\n    * Pasta Pomodoro -Angel hair pasta with fresh tomatoes (you sensing a meal theme here yet?), garlic, basil, and olive oil. Again, the tomatoes just rocked our world. The server split our dish for us, too, which I always appreciate. The pasta was good, but actually a tad bland. I rarely add salt to food after it's cooked, but this dish needed some and a dose of pepper flakes, too. \n    * Individual Apple Pie - The server may have been trying to get into my date's good graces as this dessert just appeared without us ordering it. We weren't complaining, though, because it was very good. Basically, it was a large ramekin lined with puff pasty, filled with apple pie goodness, and baked. Then topped with vanilla bean ice cream and a little caramel. The pastry was awesome as was the ice cream. The apples were good, but it was a bit much for me after the prior 3 courses. We put a nice dent in it, tho...\n\nFinal Take \n\nThe service was really top notch and very attentive. The food was solid and the wine selection was very good (beer choices are nice, too). Now whether downtown Mesa is ready for what Il Vinaio is offering is another story and I think that's biggest issue they face. The Mesa Center for the Arts is right down the street, so hopefully concert and theater goers will stumble upon this restaurant. But what I think would help Il Vinaio the most is some competition. My thoughts on this are that when you have a single, high quality restaurant surrounded by lower budget eateries, it's harder to draw the crowd to you. However, if there were a few higher quality restaurants in that area, well now you have something to attract more people. When one place is busy, you go to the next one over and check it out. Il Vinaio deserves to succeed and I hope that Mesa encourages similar caliber restaurants to set up shop.\n\nOverall Grade = B+ (Very Good)\n\nThe East Valley Foodie


Wow. The receptionist here is RUDE. I am not even visiting the doctor. I'm here with my grandma who is seeing the doctor. They were rude to her on the phone when she called, telling her that she would probably have to wait a very long time because Mondays are horribly busy in a way to make her feel bad. That rubbed me the wrong way. Why not inform her that there might be a wait rather than make her feel bad about it? \n\nOnce we got here, she didn't even have to wait. The only people in the waiting room were waiting for their wives who were seeing the doctor, not actually waiting to SEE the doctor. \nAs I'm sitting here, I heard the receptionist \nmake an outbound call to someone then complain to someone else in the office, threatening about how \"it's okay, they will just be sent to collections\" as that will be his revenge on the client for whatever reason- all within earshot of other patients. \n\nI hope this doctor is worth the piss poor receptionist sitting behind the desk. \n\nI'm giving 2 stars since I've never seen this Doctor. I'd like to give one just for the guy behind the desk.


Bull shit customer service. Although I still go 3 times a month. Bull shit. Customer service. \nOh and did u know: you cant bring pastries or any outside food into this place? Even though you order like five things. Lmfao. \nI need to find a new place. -.-


This review is long over due. I only thought about it as I was looking up their info as I have another trip to Vegas planned in the next week. We used these guys about a year and a half ago and they were AMAZING!!! Very professional, prompt, ontime, set up quickly and left quickly...we are just checking our schedule while we are there next week to try and move things around to use them again.


I gotta say, one word, underwhelmed. I read the reviews, love Vietnames cuisine, have been trying a lot of it around Vegas and was craving soup.\nWe got some spring roll things, which were the only four star item on the menu. Everything else was sorta meh. Good, well prepared, good service, with mediocre ingredients.\nNot too memorable. I might go back one more time if I look at the recent reviews and see some 5 stars comments. Otherwise it is all about David Wong's Pan Asian, Beijing Noodle Cafe, and Monta Ramen house which, in my opinion are in a league of their own (especially Pan Asian and Beijing Noodle Cafe).


This place was great!  I ordered for the first time for a pick up for our office meeting and it was on-time, fresh, hot, and the gal showed me each order before placing it in the bag - with each person's name on it!  Now that's customer service. \n\nClam Chowder can be a little thicker, but ALL our food was GREAT!  \nThe Crab / Avocado Sandwich was delicious.  \n\nFor ordering for 5 people and doing a combo with 1/2 doz cookies, it was about $51 - great price!  \n\nWe are fans and would go back :)


A while back the two Marigold owners started a seemingly Madison revolution in cuisine and I've loved going ever since.  I love the care they take with the food and the fun and friendly atmosphere.  If only it weren't so chaotic and crowded, but why should I think such a great place wouldn't get noticed?


I'd go to fox only because they were pretty dirt cheap. $25/day for our one day rental during spring break. A taxi would cost upwards of $50 so I can't complain too much. The cars, however, were disgusting. I had an experience with fox in LA. all they had were shitty PT cruisers.. so my expectations for the LV airport weren't too high. THe first day, we got a chevy economy car that was actually decent. On out last day, we had several cars to chose from. The first one my husband jumped in didn't start. He jumped in a couple others.. they were all disgustingly dirty. He settled on a kia. It had stains on the passenger seat and back seat. The odor of coffee was stroooong... It could've been worse, I guess. So although I can't rave about this place, I'd use them again since we only needed the car for a couple of hrs to get to my parent's house/car. If we were going to be using the car for a few days, that'd be a different story. Oh, you know that free shuttle that takes you from the Mccarren airport to the car rental center? You need to wait for another shuttle to take you to fox since fox isn't in the car rental center with budget/enterprise/etc.


Ok. Here's the scoop. Loco moco was good, very good. RV pancakes without the chocolate, very tasty. I took to go orders of the banana pancakes. To try at the Volley ball tournament. The line can be outrageous for parties greater than 2. So waiting will be long.(expect up to 45 minutes)


I found this restaurant on Yelp and was excited with such great reviews.  We called and they were booked.  We asked them to give us a call if they got a cancellation and they called with a 730 available time.  They were very pleasant.\n\nWe arrived and and had a drink at the bar were seated fairly promptly.  Restaurant had nice atmosphere.  \n\nWe began with the lobster deviled eggs.  They were definately fresh good for deviled eggs but if lobster wasn't in the name I would not have guessed there was lobster in the dish.  \n\nI had the chopped salad and my husband had the dinner salad with balsalmic dressing.  Both were fresh, mine had good flavors.\n\nFor our main course I had the lobster mac and cheese (the appetizer left me wanting more lobster) and my husband had the the Hangar Steak.  Mine wasn't at all special not even great for mac and cheese and again minimal lobster and no significant lobster flavor.  My husband really didn't like his steak and although small didn't finish the dish.  Really said the flavor was off.  \n\nThe waiter recognized my husband didn't enjoy the flavor and was very apologetic.  Although my husband would not have sent it back no one really came by to check if everything was ok until it would have been too late anyway.  \n\nThe waiter did comp the dessert because of my husbands dislike of his dish and was very eagar to make it right.  My husband ordered the molten lava cake and this was really dry without any real \"molten\" center.\n\nI don't like to write bad review but this restaurant is way over rated in my opinion.  The staff was very pleasant but they could not make up for the poor flavors in the food.  \n\nWe will not return.


I cannot say enough good about this place! If you are looking for authentic NY pizza, then you need not look any further. My husband is from Brooklyn and I also lived in NYC for many years and this is just like sitting in a NYC pizzeria. The owner is so nice and will make almost anything on request. When they first opened, they did not have garlic knots on the menu so we would call and ask the owner to make them for us and he always did. Now they have them on the menu so we feel a little responsible for that, LOL. I always order mine extra wet and garlicky. I could take out the entire town of Transylvania's vampire population with one deep exhale after a batch of those yummy garlic knots. They are a must!\n\nWe drive close to an hour round trip, all the way from West Buckeye to get our pizza from Taste of Italy and it is worth every mile. The smell of it in our car on the way home has forced us to pull over to the side of the road and eat like starving heathens, right out of the box on a number of occasions. If you are looking for your run-of-the-mill, cardboard box, national chain pizza, this is not the place for you, but if you want authentic, N.Y. style pizza that will make your taste buds wake up and say, \"Fuggeddaboudit\" like a true Italian, then get off the internet, put your butt in the car and go to Taste of Italy and have some real Italian food! Mangia!


After watching the prior tenant (Bellasera Bistro) try to open, and never really do so, we watched for what seemed to be months as Manny's tried to open as well. Finally they have done so, to great fanfare. Well, let's just say that they are at least open.\n\nThe first thing that's a bit odd about the place is that they are perhaps Manny's Mediterranean Cafe or Manny's Neighborhood Grille. I must confess that even after eating there, I really don't know which. There are signs for both in the place, and there is even one sign that suggests that perhaps both are available for franchising. I looked online, and it looks like there are a grand total of five locations, covering both concepts - and no clear indicator of which is which, or why. So your guess is as good as anyone's.\n\nWhen it comes to the decor, there are mediterranean-like pictures, that may be Ancient Greece, or just generic pictures, on the walls. There are LCD television sets tuned to European sports channels. And there are seats. That's about it. Not a lot of ambience.\n\nThe service is friendly, if not especially helpful, but that seems to stem from the company. For instance, if you look at the web site for help on the loyalty program, you'll find that it tells you about rewards. That's about it. No details or anything else. At one point we were told that you can get ten points per dollar, at which we should have jumped all over it, because at another point we were told a 10% off coupon, and another you get a $10 certificate after spending $100. Now I don't really have any idea, since even online it doesn't tell you much. It seems to revolve around a base ten numbering system. I thought those came from the Romans, not the Greeks, but it's all Mediterranean, so who knows?\n\nAnyway - when it comes to food, it's a bit of a mish-mash there as well. The quality of the dishes we tried was good, but it was an interesting combination, and definitely more Mediterranean than Greek. The hummus was tasty, and perhaps one of the best things we had. The Souvlaki was served with lamb, rather than a more common pork around these parts. The burger was fairly tasty, and the pizza was good, if a bit on the bland side. Generally portions were described as \"large\", but I'm not sure I'd go there - our teenagers easily took care of the shared calzone, and could have done so individually as well.


We had a pane completely fracture in one of our back door windows and thought we needed to just replace the window but, unfortunately, it is a fiberglass door and the entire thing needed to be replaced.  Jason not only replaced the door, but painted it, re-hung the blinds, and re-installed the security.  When the paint code I provided proved to be the wrong color, he was all set to take care of correcting it himself.  He also noticed our door strikes weren't adequate and offered to fix those as well!!!\n\nThis little company provides BIG customer service!  They also do more than doors and windows so we're going to get an estimate from them for some floor tile work next.  I like to have good people I can call on that I can trust to do quality work.  This company is now on my list!


We can always count on Tenders Steakhouse for a hearty meal. Eating here is not an inexpensive experience as the sides are ala carte but you walk away satisfied. \n\nWe enjoyed our New Year's Eve dinner here. My husband and I split the Winter Garden Greens Salad. Greens were fresh and not wilted. The vinaigrette was very tasty. Interestingly we were not offered fresh cracked pepper.\n\nMy husband ordered the black angus beef hanger tender (10 oz) with a side of grilled asparagus and Yukon mashed potatoes. The beef was very tender and not overly seasoned. The vegetables were also well prepared.\n\nI ordered my favorite the veal osso buco over a creamy polenta. Wow, it was rich and savory. It comes on a bed of polenta along with onions, potatoes and celery. I'll have another please...\n\nA bit disappointed in desert.  Knowing how long a souffle takes to cook I let the server know that I would be having the dark chocolate souffle when we ordered our entree. He was a bit surprised by my request and said it would be fine to order it after my meal. So I did and low and behold it came to the table under cooked. Geeee what a surprise. So we asked that another be brought to the table cooked. 15 minutes later another souffle appeared slightly better then the first. I ate a little of it and left the rest. Long story short, the server did not charge us for the souffle. Kudo's to him.\n\nWe will return!


I bought a $50 gift certificate to Bananas Ranas on restaurant.com yesterday for $4. I was very excited to take friends out and have a good night. The stipulations of the gift card were that you have to order $100 worth of food, and I figured that 5 adults and 2 kids could do that. Our bill was $116, but most of it was drinks, so we weren't allowed to use the gift certificate. No big deal, the gc made us pay an 18% gratuity, and I was pissed at the thought of being made to pay that for the service we received. (Silver lining, I found it!)\n\nWe got there around 6 and stood around for like 10 minutes waiting to be seated. We were handed menus and were almost ignored the entire 2 hours we were there (it should have only taken 1 1/2 hours.) I ordered a tea, which I sweetened with stevia from home. I asked for a spoon to stir my tea and never received one (even though I asked 2 times.) We had 4 orders of \"trimichangas\" (3 mini chimichangas, 1 carne asada, 1 chicken, and 1 al pastor served with rice and beans), a bacon cheeseburger with fries, chicken tenders with fries, and a grilled cheese sandwich with rice. We also ordered an appetizer platter.\n\nThe plates the waitress brought out for the appetizers were DIRTY! They all had buffalo chicken residue on them. They took them back and they brought out coffee cup saucers instead.\n\nThe appetizer platter tasted like stuff I could get in the freezer section of nearly any grocery store, but it wasn't awful.\n\nMy kids' food (grilled cheese and chicken tenders) came out before ours did, they did fries with the grilled cheese, and when the error was pointed out, the person that brought the food out (NOT the waitress) took the entire plate back and came back with a grilled cheese and rice.)\n\nThe chimichangas were really greasy, the beef one was mostly fat, the rice and beans were cold on all 4 plates.\n\nThe red salsa was Pace, which in Arizona does not fly, at all.\n\nThe bacon cheeseburger was overdone, my friend called it a \"twice grilled\" burger. I don't know if she didn't like the fries, she didn't eat them.\n\nWe had to call out to the waitress for drink refills, and my refill of iced tea came back with something floating in it.\n\nWe were the ONLY table there on a Friday night for half of the meal, there was no excuse for the slow service.\n\nWe ordered dessert in an attempt to up the bill (not knowing how far from the total we were) and we were told that half of the desserts listed weren't available (oh, excuse me \"desert\" is what it said on the menu!) My kids each got an ice cream sundae because they were very well behaved, and I ordered a slice of chocolate cake to share with my husband. The waitress said she'd put a lot of chocolate syrup on my youngest's sundae (she wanted chocolate ice cream, but they didn't have any, so I told her if she stirred in the chocolate syrup it would be like chocolate ice cream and she was really excited about that idea) but when it came out there wasn't much on it. The chocolate cake didn't look anything like chocolate cake, because it wasn't. It was tiramisu. Not a bad thing, but not what you're wanting when you order chocolate cake! To make matters worse, it was still semi frozen!\n\nWe're not going back ever again and I'm not sure who to bestow the gift certificate on.  Who do I hate the most?  LOL  My husband made me take an oath to check the yelp reviews for all restaurants before I buy another restaurant.com gift certificate!


On the south side of town, this place is my favorite for seafood stews for years. Yesterday, I had gumbo that the seafood is already shell free so i could enjoy it without the hassle of a mess. It was delicious. Janet was my server: very nice as always. Nellie is my other favorite server. I also had the Pan Roast to go since it is my favorite dish. I always buy the FULL portions. The consistency here is great.


Stopped for a bite to eat the food truck rally in South End last evening.  There were  four food trucks at the rally: Herban Legend, a cupcake truck, Goody Woody's (tacos, burritos), and Sticks and Cones (ice cream).  I was told Herban Legend is currently one of Charlotte's most popular food trucks, so I went with them.\n\nThis truck serves sandwiches, wraps, burgers, and hot dogs.  Most items are in the $6-8 range.  Sides run up to $5 each and non-alcoholic beverages are $1 each.  No combos.  Everything's ordered a la carte.  There's a bit of diversity on the menu -- you can get a French dip, like one of my buddies got, a Cuban sandwich, tostada, curry chicken wrap, and fish and chips.\n\nI went with the shawarma, which is an Arab wrap, for $6.50.  This is one of the truck's top sellers.  I've had my fair share of shawarmas and thought Herban Legend's version was OK.  Theirs includes grilled chicken, Greek tzatziki sauce, tabouleh salad (cold minty salad made with bulgur and parsley), chopped tomatoes and french fries wrapped in flat bread.\n\nThe flat bread was grilled so it was hard and brittle.  This caused the wrap to break apart easily once I grabbed the sucker to bite into it.  It was packed with a sufficient amount of ingredients and plenty of sauce, so much so that the sauce was spilling all over the place as I ate.  Overall, it was satisfying, though I'd probably prefer softer bread and it'd be cool if they had some meat options like other shawarma joints offer.\n\nI also ordered a side of Herban's truffle fries, which at $5, is pretty expensive for a side of fries.  They've also got regular fries for $2-3 and honestly, I tried both, and the truffle fries weren't worth the five bucks.  Both styles of fries were alright.  One order of fries is good for 2-3 people.\n\nIf I ever get the chance to revisit this truck, I'll probably order the fried green tomato grilled cheese sandwich.  Someone in our group last night ordered this and she loved it.\n\nBeverage options were limited: Coke, Sprite, and bottled water.  The good thing about food trucks is you can BYOB.\n\nFast and friendly service.  Credit cards are accepted at a 25 cent surcharge.  You sign your receipt on their iPhone and can get the receipt texted or emailed to you.


Terrible service. As a frequent shopper here, I am beyond disappointed with how I was just treated. I bought 3.5 pounds of Chicken breast and was assured by the butcher it was breast. When I began cooking it, I realized it was thigh. I was told to drive back to the store (20 minutes away) and get my chicken breast. I get there and then they tell me it isn't available. Since there was no replacement, I asked for my money back and they were weird about it. I will never shop here again and I strongly recommend you don't either. The service I received for their mistake was appalling.


WinCo is a bit of a drive for me as F&E, and Smith's are closer, but I do love WinCo's low prices. One thing I absolutely crave, their coffee. OMG It's amazeballs.  I grind my own and mix a couple different beans together to get the flavor profile I want.  I used to work at a coffee shop, so I created flavored coffee all the time.  They have a huge selection of produce, cheap prices too. They have a huge meat, packaged cold cut, and cheese section. I particularly like their 2lb pkg of ground turkey for around $5.50!  Dairy case, frozen section, and some larger bulk items too. I also like their gluten free section over by the bakery section. I don't have celiac disease but I have lost some weight and kept it off by eating gluten free.   You should know that this chain does not accept credit cards. I made that mistake once and bounced my bank account, but the food was tasty! :D


This place was ok.I came here a few years back. I had to get a tattoo on my birthday weekend. I got my daughters names on the back of my biceps for $250. It was ok. I am redoing them now. The guy dug into my skin. My wifes was a free hand touch up on her back. also for $250. That came out much better.


Why is this place so fantastic?\nI don't even know. What a great addition to the scene.\n\nI am from Pittsburgh but now live in NYC and the bagel I had here this morning could rival a NYC bagel.\n\nSupport your local businesses, folks. This place is TOP NOTCH!!!!!!!!!


The best night club I've been to so far! The place is so beautiful, loved both the interior and exterior. \n\nCame here for my Cousin's bachelorette party with a group of 11 ladies. Since we were staying at the Wynn, we decide that it would be very convenient to come here our last night in Las Vegas. Best decision ever!!! \n\nWe had a great time and by far XS was the top club in our list!!! Loved dancing both indoor and outdoor. The music and atmosphere were great.


We love this Snip Its! The friendly staff makes the place- my 5 year old loves the games, movies and the prize machine at the end! They always do a wonderful job and we've never had to wait long since they are staffed well all of the time. The products are wonderful too- Morning Miracle is my savior!


I often stop in this place when Im at Tempe Marketplace to get a drink and relax.  They usually have some decent drink specials and they have a nice big bar.  The bartenders usually take a little effort to order from, not really sure why that is, maybe I just have bad luck.


I like to think I'm a good local, but I never knew of this place until the Travelzoo offer came. A wonderful brunch spot right in downtown Phoenix (inside Westin Hotel). The decor is lovely and the service is on point, but the menu is also quite interesting. My favorite part is that they brew Intelligentsia Coffee (a Chicago favorite). One criticism: if the menu states 'roasted red peppers' I do not expect yellow, which are not as tasty. Overall, great experience I will repeat.


This show was entertaining,but not as good as the SF show. Well worth seeing .


Server could've been more attentive.  Sat in dining area instead of bar.  My steak too done.


While there were no insect carcasses in my food, I was still not very impressed with my meal at PF Chang's.  I went for a \"business lunch\" with my boss.  Who thought I would ever enjoy working more than eating??--I think this meal was a first!\n\nI got steamed veggies and brown rice.  Now I expected it to be pretty bland, since it mentioned no sauces added at all.  But the vegetables were rubbery, not crisp like they should be after a good steaming. The rice was pretty underdone as well, so all-in-all, they got nothing right.  I tried adding some sauces to liven it up a bit, but it was too little, too late.\n\nPerhaps the biggest disappointment was the egg drop soup.  I usually add pepper to mine because I like the extra kick, but this needed much more help than a little pepper.  It was very bland, and didn't taste like anything.  Tasteless egg in water is definitely NOT something you want to keep eating.  And, of course, there was no salt and pepper on the table, so I couldn't even enjoy it the way I like. \n\nBecause I didn't pay, I didn't complain to the waiter, but normally this would not have passed by me.  Though the lunch prices are pretty reasonable, I still would not return here if given the choice.


Always satisfying and never a let down!\nEverything we ordered was cooked to perfection.\nEach steak was juicy and the seared tuna was excellent!\nThe atmosphere here is comfortable with traditional flare.\nA really nice place to spend any meal!


Dropped in here during Phoenix Comicon and ended up coming back every day I was there. Location can hardly be beat. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful, probably one of the best parts of eating at Kokoro, actually. \n\nWhoever did their interior design really knew what they were doing. The place really has a great feel to it. \n\nI went with a friend, and we focused more on the dinner items and less on the sushi, so I can only speak to that. Katsudon was great. They added a bit of kick to it for a southwestern touch, which turned out really well. Their salmon teriyaki was great considering the price. My friend ordered their fried rice, and liked it so much that he kept ordering it three days in a row.  My friend also tried the tempura, which he said was a bit sub-par, but considering the price, well worth it. \n\nTheir \"dinner\" items come with miso soup and a salad as well. Salad is, to be honest, rather plain, but it's nice that they include it considering how inexpensive the dinner sets are. The miso soup was a bit salty for my taste, but still good. I would not recommend the spicy korean beef steak. In all honesty, the katsudon had more kick to it, and the flavor of the korean beef was fairly weak.\n\nOverall, eating here was a great experience. The food, on average, is a great deal. Prices are fairly low, especially considering their prime location in the heart of downtown. In general, you get more than you pay for here, but don't expect it to be the best in the city. \n\nFor good food on the cheap, in the heart of downtown Phoenix, I would  recommend Kokoro, although not necessarily my first choice.\n\nUpdate: Went back twice since I was in town again. Had some trouble with the service....during lunch the line was huge, and during dinner it was so packed that they were too busy to take my order. I ended up going somewhere else. Hopefully that's not a trend but...\n\nI should also comment on the chicken teriyaki. It really wasn't any good. Try ordering something else.


This place is literally across the street from my house. Which is the ONLY reason I eat there (as rare as it is).  The Fat Burrito is like a dumbed down version of Chipotle.  It has a line cook that makes your big ass burrito to order and then you pay for it at the end of the line.  Truth be told, the burritos are decent.  Nothing exceptional, but decent.  The Chicken Quesadilla's are made by folding a huge tortilla in half, and the nachos are from homemade chips (that look like they were cooked a week prior)...\n\nThe place is clean and the cook/owner is a humongous guy.  He's cheery and funny, and almost makes you forget the fact that his place is mediocre.  I have never had a bad trip.  Then again, I have never had an exceptional trip either.\n\nI give this the dreaded \"Meh\" seal of mediocrity.


I wish you could select 0-stars as the option here. I checked in to the location to get a quote \"free 100% hand wash\". The rude man taking customers out front (with clipboard) realized I was a new customer going for a free wash and says: \"no you can't go car is too low\". I am in a standard height Nissan coupe. \n\nI said ok... Then just spray it with the hose and \"hand\" wash it. He says \"no you must pay custom price for that \"$24.99\". They are simply abusing Yelp deals to draw in customers and immediately void the offer and upsell you. \n\nSteer clear at all costs.
