Overall - do not ever stay here if you can avoid it. I will be posting this review to Hotels.com as well to try and help other travelers. Read on for details.\n\nI got put here by US Airways after my flight was cancelled due to 'aircraft maintenance' and after the attendant apologized for having no other choice but this Microtel, I thought 'How bad can it be?' Well let me tell you. As a pretty well traveled guy who takes a pride in being comfortable anywhere, no matter how run-down or low-maintenance, and has thoroughly enjoyed sleeping in dirt-floor mosquito-net bungalows in Laos - the only way to possibly be comfortable here is to down a bucket of beer and pass out cold.\n\nYou want to forget you are staying here. BEFORE you stay here.\n\nYou want to check your bed for traces of bed bugs.\n\nYou stare in awe as two police officers remove an obviously cracked out prostitute from the ice-machine area.\n\nEven through your alcoholic haze you can tell it's not a good sign the receptionist is arguing with 4 cops at 2 in the morning.\n\nThe room looked, smelled, and flat out felt terrible to be in. Holes in the sheets. A 6-minute long airport shuttle that only leaves every hour. It was a smoking room - and I don't smoke.\n\nNow you're not so surprised when the people who checked in before you checked out 15 minutes later. And when you discretely ask them why, they inform you they work for Wyndham and this place is even below their standards.\n\nListen to me. Just don't ever do it. Please, save yourselves!\n\nThat's all I got. You've been warned.

So I have tried this place twice now and I am still not a fan. \n\nI do have to say the ambiance is quite beautiful, but the food and drink are a total rip off. 3 half dollar size tacos with no sides for 16 bucks blows my mind. And $12 for half a cup of guacamole is outrageous. I'm sorry!

Best hot dog i've ever had! This place was absolutely great. Such an interesting combination of flavors, but it definitely works.

Stopped by here on the way to Sedona and was pleasantly surprised. \n\nMenu is expansive and most items we got were very good, not giant portions unless you go for their massive hot dogs but VERY tasty. Burgers were bomb, especially the bacon burger!\n\nAtmosphere was really cool as well, good sports bar feel and the staff were extremely pleasant. \n\nWould definitely go back here when passing through again.

Patio is beautiful. Drinks were decent. Food was subpar at best. The bone marrow was cold and the crispy chicken skin that accompanied the pate was chewy. When we asked, we were told that the chef cooks the chicken skin earlier and reheats it. Eh? It's never going to be crispy that way. Escargot pie was pretty good and french fries were fine. Not the Vegas fine dining that to which we're accustomed.\n\nWe left hungry and went to Jose Andres which was much busier and definitely more fulfilling. \n\nDisappointing experience for my birthday meal.

came here on a recent vegas trip with friends.\ntook advantage of the friends and family discount and got a room for $89 after those ridiculous fees like \"resort fee.\"\n\nthe luxury rooms are pretty nice and the bathroom has a tub and shower.\n\nwould definitely come back since it wasnt dirty or anything and was pretty spacious. and well at $18 a person (we had 5 people) i would say its a deal especially since its somewhat in the middle of the strip.

I had heard so many great things about this place and I'm glad I finally went! The atmosphere is kickback and fabulous. My girlfriend and I hung at the bar and our bartender ROCKED. I tend to be very picky when trying new beer and he was very patient in giving me samples and educating me on all the beers. We didn't eat so I cannot comment on the food, but I will be back and I'm doubting I will be disappointed! (: Looking forward to taking my beau along for the next visit!

This was nothing like the other Hampton Inn's we've previously stayed in. They were nice properties. This Hampton Inn was in a uninviting neighborhood where we did not feel safe walking to any restaurant nearby. The room was very small but it was clean. We were kept up with the noise from the squeaky door of the room next door & the person walking in the room above us. The air conditioning unit was a wall mounted unit that was very loud. The rat traps were visible around the property which was a bit unsettling. The staff was not the friendly staff we have experienced at other Hampton Inns. One staff member was texting while leaning against the wall where the breakfast was available & someone had to ask for more coffee. Not a Hampton Inn we will recommend. Very overpriced for what they offered.

Excellent service from our waiter...forgot his name..Grant? He was extremely polite and kept telling my group we had good questions which was pretty funny. He was also on top of bringing our bread and refilling our water. \n\nFood was delicious. I did not expect my seafood to be so big too. The amount and quality is worth the price, at least for the seafood pasta I got. \n\nThe olive oil/pepper/cheese mix for our bread was very good! The only thing I wish for is the bread to be warmer when it is served to it. It was a little cold, if not plain temp. \n\nI will come again!

My first time here! Ordered half Casanova (no prosciutto) and half At Last. They accidentally gave us half The Answer (they sound similar) and were awesome enough to bring out a free pizza to correct the error. I didn't care for the At Last, I don't like corn on pizza or in pasta and I had to add salt for flavor. My friend loves it, though. I loved the Casanova, goat cheese and dates are an amazing combo. The bombolini dessert was yummy as well. Great, attentive service! I hope to come back soon, loved their crust.

Really rude and inattentive staff. I swear the people working here are high or something (which I normally don't mind, but don't do it at work. It's just annoying.)\n\nOrdered a caramel flan frappe and it was the blandest frappe I've ever had. It's like drinking melted ice water that used to have something tasty in it. I can't even finish it...it's that bad.\n\nAvoid this Starbucks like the plague!!!

The TPC Scottsdale Stadium and Champions courses are way over rated! The Champions course is nothing more than a hacked up muni. In 2011 the greens have about 60% coverage of grass, the rest is dirt painted green! They roll at about a 7 on the stimp meter (very slow and rough). The Stadium course greens are much nicer.\n\nOne of my other chief complaints about these courses is that year around you will have balls plugging and balls with mud on them. They over water the courses to try and keep them green (still lots of dried out brown spots though). There is no sand base under the turf so you get lots of wet/muddy spots. They do dry out the Stadium course just before the PGA plays there, but the rest of the year both courses are wet.\n\nNet, net: Stadium is an overpriced tourist trap and Champions is a modestly priced, slow playing, beer drinkers muni.

Oh AMC grand you sure have lost your lustre. At one time you were the best on par with Harkins and somewhere between the early 00s to now you're not exactly pageant queen material, more of the festival/parade queen. Your stadium seating although relevant is not as comfortable as Harkins. Wish you were the camelback esplanade coz that's the grand dame.

Stopped at Claddagh tonight. We had not been there in over a year so we decided to give it a try. The good...boddingtons on tap is good as were the pub chips. On the bad, very bad, side were the fish from the fish and chips and the \"legendary\" monte cristo\n\nThe fish was bone dry. I know the fish was probably frozen and thawed, but this seemed like it was frozen during the last ice age. Really bad. The monte cristo was quite odd as it was in a dome of dough and covered with powdered sugar. Certainly only a legend in the mind of the menu's author. Do not order it.\n\nSo, skip the food st Claddagh and just have a boddingtons.

This was the first time I had been to a lucilles. It was excellent. Way better than famous daves.\n\nThe service was great for a busy Friday night. Ordered ribs both beef and baby back. Both were delicious as we're the burnt ends app. The best part, the biscuits and the hot towels at the end. \n\nWe will definitely be back

Who would have thought to have hot pot in the middle of a hot summer evening. We have relatives visiting from Canada and decided to try this place out. There was only one other couple in the restaurant when we arrived for supper at 7 pm. They serve individual servings of different meat base hot pots such as lamb, beef and seafood. I had the chicken with mushroom and a side order of beef. You can request the level of spiciness of the soup base. You go to their sauce counter and mix your own dipping sauce and you are set. The hot pot comes out to you all cooked with a variety of vegetables, bean curd and tofu. The food wasn't bad but I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more in the winter time. Oh I forgot to mention that we also had their homemade boiled dumplings. You get 12 pieces for only $5. It was a good deal, very fresh and tasty!! Two thumbs up for their dumplings.

Maybe it should be renamed the \"Cubic Zirconia\" since The Diamond serves cheap, low quality Shit! \n\nI realize that this is supposed to be a Charlotte classic. But I wish this grease factory would disappear like the grossly overrated Penguin that was around the corner. I am astounded by the positive reviews. I get that it's got a unique classic vibe. But the food is simply disgusting. \n\nI was fully expecting a greasy spoon type of place. And I'm just fine with indulging in something unhealthy... as long as it tastes good. NOTHING that I ate at The Diamond tasted good. Let's start with the onion rings. I'm not sure there was any onion in there. It was more like I was eating hard chunks of over fried breading. The fried pickles were okay. Just okay. The burgers - How one effs up a burger this badly is beyond me. I would rather get a burger from McDonald's. I am Not exaggerating about this! Skinny, way overcooked patties. The bun looked like an obese individual rolled around on it for a while. The lettuce was wilted. And there was No flavor. With all of the heavy stuff that I was ordering I figured I'd order one lighter item, so I went with the Grecian Meze Platter. BLECH!!! I don't think it was possible to screw this up. I really didn't! The pitas seemed stale rather than the claimed \"toasted\". But the real highlight for me was the hummus. I was looking forward to some creamy, flavorful goodness. This hummus looked like something out of \"Two Girls, One Cup\". And by that I mean \"Shit in a Cup\". It was Rock Hard. It was not possible to dip one of the stale pitas into it. I tried. The stale pita broke. I stuck my knife into the \"hummus\" and let go. The knife didn't budge. It just stood there standing straight up. \n\nIf you want to clog your arteries, at least make it worth it. Ingest your grease somewhere other than The Diamond.

We got there at 6:30pm with no reservations, they were busy, so the hostess gave us a buzzer, so when our table was ready we will get buzzed,in less than 5 min. we were buzzed.(THAT WAS SUPER FAST) The decore inside nice, nice, the place looked great,and the the smells coming out of the kitchen you thought you were back in Tuscany. It felt back home for a while.We sat in the gazibo room, the lites were nice and dimm, and the atmosphere was great. Sandy was our waitress and she was very polite and spirited. Her recomendations were awsome, the ceaser salads that came out were fresh and the lettuce crisp the lobster bisqe was good too.The basket with the bread that came out was nice and hot. As soon as they saw our table empty with bread they kept on coming with more, and they always refilled our drinks as well. The pasta dishes with ricotta panceta in a vodka cream sause excellent (Pasta a la Vodka),the brazed beef with cremini mushrooms and homade noodles was great, the flavors were all there, awsome!! The mohitos are a little on the lite side, but it was corected from Sandy.The deserts that came out in little espreso cups [2.50 each] Smart!! Very good idea you can try them all. In general the experience was great and we will be back. For a chain restaurant to look that good and please their customers so well, gets 5 stars from me. PPERRRFFECCTOOOOOOOOOO!

Honestly this place is overhyped. I got Andy's sage fried chicken with mashed potatoes,eggs,biscuit, and bacon. My food had no flavor whatsoever. I don't like my food too salty but this was just too bland. The only thing I probably finished was the bacon and biscuit lol. The wait service is excellent the food is just not up my alley.

The wife and I went last night to this restaurant and to our amazement were seated immediately (never a good sign.) We immediately noticed how HOT the place was and we asked the waitress about it. She told us and I quote: \"We can't lower the A/C to anything below 79 or it freezes up.\" Well let me tell you it was every bit of at least 95 degrees in there. After a few tentative looks from the wife we decided to get up and go to the OTHER Joe's on Baseline. It was much much cooler there and we had a great time. We love the crab pots and the salmon sunrise. We hate the heat and won't be coming back to the location on Southern unless they fix the A/C.

I was in the mood to go out and enjoy a nice meal with my wife. I chose a place that we have not been to before but have passed by quite often. This is Mcormick & Schmicks located at the back entrance to South Park Mall.\n\nMy wife is not a big seafood lover as myself, but who who could pass up a nice center cut filet as shown in the photos and described on their website. For starters, we should have passed.\n\nI started by reading the yelp reviews, as I value other fellow Yelper's opinions. It was lacking in the latest reviews for this location, so I had to step up and bring everyone the latest review after our dining experience for better or for worse.\n\nI started by setting up the reservations online through yelp, using the open table reservation provided. Our reservations were for 7:30 for a party of two for a Saturday evening. We arrived 15 minutes before our reservation time and was seated promptly by the staff.\n\nWe were seated on the right side of the restaurant in a booth which had a view of the patio. When it began to rain that evening on some of the patrons on the patio, we had some entertainment watching them scramble to get underneath the umbrellas. Cruel I know, but I had a less than desirable experience.\n\nMy wife had the Filet House Center Cut Filet Mignon (6oz) 29.95 (cooked medium) with mashed potatoes and a sweet tea. I had the Wild Caught Stuffed Salmon (a daily special not listed on the main menu) a glass of water and a glass of wine.\n\nThe bread was cold, the butter was very difficult to spread on the bread as it was hard and unable to be applied properly with a knife. The server initially forgot my glass of wine, and it was at this point my expectations were being crushed!\n\nThe food finally made it out and at first appeared to be correct. The steak however was more like well done with the smallest sliver of pink. The edge was crusty and had a very tough texture and had the residue of a dirty grill . My thoughts are that it was overcooked, but for only a 6oz portion, it was just a few bites. The center was edible, but she left 3 bites for server and notified the staff of the steak. The mashed potatoes were warm, and was the highlight of her meal.\n\nMy Stuffed Salmon was very delicate, warm, and tasty. I was content with my meal, but not a great value for the special.\n\nUpon the completion of the meal, the plates were removed, and we chose to forgo any surprises for desert and opted for the check. It was at this time that we were presented the check and noticed that we were not charged for the sweet tea. The server informed us that based on the amount of steak which was left on the plate, it was equal to the value of the sweet tea. ( REALLY! - Are you F*&^* kidding me!)\n\nSo 3 bites of a 6 oz steak = a glass of tea. Elizabeth C. says that $3.85 is a lot for a tea....... hehe. My steak must have been priced wrong then.\n\nPlease I am not impressed with the this location and the name should be changed to McCormick & Schmucks!\n\nTruthfully and Sincerely,\nNCFoodGuy

On a hunch from a friend we were told to give Grimaldi's a try while raving about Settebello's!! Me being me, i was scared to vier away and try something new and give up what is always sure to be a wonderful pizza experience! \n\nSo how did i try Grimaldi's?? Well, i was in a wedding on Friday and was busy all day from 9am-till after the reception ending at about 11:00pm, leaving the husband to fend for himself for the day!\n\nI get a call about 4:00pm, \"honey, I have a surprise for you! Can i tell you what it is? Can i please???\" My reply \"No love, that would make it not be a surprise anymore, now i have something to look forward to... I will get it when i see you!\" and due to the fact that i at this point have large hair, too much make-up on and am in a freezing cold reception room trying to get all the name cards placed on the tables and get the bride ready and keep her happy, while keeping the kids outta the way and clean in their flower girl dresses i am excited to have a surprise waiting for me when all is said and done!!!\n\nDriving home after a beautiful wedding, the husband says... \"are you excited for your surprise? Can i give you a hint??\"\n\n\"Yes dear, i am VERY excited for my surprise, lay it on me!\" \n\n\"Remember what we wanted to try, but didnt want to give something else up for?\"\n\nI came home to half a pizza from Grimaldi's!!!!!!! :)\n\nAAAaaahhhh, how cute!!\n\nOk, back to the review.. while it was cold and not pipping hot and fresh i few minutes of heating up, it was wonderful!!! Now, I cant wait to go get one and try it fresh, its WAY closer to the house than Settebello's is and now I am willing to give it a try and vier away at least once!\n\nSo for now 4 stars, and if this location is closer or better for you than Settebello's is (at least for now till they move next to Whole Food's in The District) it is a fair trade off, or even if you want to go crazy and mix it up a bit!!!\n\nNow can i get a.... WWHHOOOAAAA PIZZA!!!!!!! :)

This is an awesome gem right in Old Town! It is located in an hold house. The inside is very elegant. I've eaten here twice. Once for brunch and once for dinner. For brunch I had an outstanding homemade crepe. For dinner, I ate the brisket and biscuit and it was A+! One of my new fav places! The also have a large patio seating area!!!

I work downtown at a local Hotel, and was dragged here one day by a fellow staff member.\n\nI'd just like to say, that if I had the money; i'd be going here every week! Whenever I have cash in my wallet, and am craving a delicious homemade sandwich, I go here on my lunch break!\n\nMy favorite would most certainly by the amazing Chicken Salad Sandwich. Filled with chicken, mayo, granny smith green apples, cumin, and cashews on a huge croisant roll, it will fill your stomach to the point of bursting.\n\nMore often than not, I have to wrap up the other half and take it home!\n\nThe delicious bakery portion of the small cafe always smells delicious (however, I'm a picky eater, and haven't found something I'd like to try).\n\nThe only complaint is that the wait times are a bit too long (especially if you want lunch; but come 10 minutes before 11am, which is when they start serving it). However, the above was solved by asking if their was a solution; they told me to call to place a to go order about 5-10 minutes before leaving work and it'll be ready by the time I get there)! How great is that customer service?!\n\nAll in all- I hope they NEVER take the Chicken Salad Sandwich off the menu. If so, I'm sure I'll find something just as delicious when I go back week after week!

4 stars for tradition, 2 stars for food quality and 1 for service. The female bartender that took our lunch order had ZERO personality. They make you pay up front for your food. Every time I said \"Thank-you\" to the bartender, she replied with \"No Problem\". I'm glad it wasn't a problem. I'd recommend drinking here at night, but not eating.

This place has gone way downhill. When it first opened it was pretty good. But now, it's terrible. The service is not good. The food is overpriced and not very good. I have had better chicken marsala at non-Italian places. They can't get the orders correct and the drinks are watered down and the bar tender is not pleasant. Won't be back.

Personally, I think this place is more hype than anything... I've been here about three times to try different flavors. Let's see - red velvet, chocolate marshmallow, and carrot... all of them were just \"meh\" to me. \n\nI like how the place looks and how the cupcakes were displayed, also the dog cookies were cute. I probably liked the packaging more than anything.

I've used Yelp before, never left a review. I've opened an account strictly for the purpose of warning the furniture-buying world to NEVER, EVER buy anything from Ashley. I have had nothing but hoops to jump through and headaches since purchasing a dining room table that was delivered damaged, not only before delivery (as evidenced by the manufacturer's repair on the corner), but IN delivery where the table was clearly dropped with horrible damage. If I could post pictures on here I would.\n\nWe bought the table in preparation for Christmas dinner, and had to take time off work to accept delivery because the next available Saturday delivery time was well into January. The table was delivered the Friday before Christmas12/21/12. The table was horribly damaged in the delivery, had a large wood chip peeled out on one end that was ignored and laquered over, and manufacturer-repaired damage on one corner. We immediately reported the damage and were told they'd send a tech out to look before replacing.\n\nFast forward ONE MONTH LATER, to when the tech comes out. He tells us we can't exchange once we accept, despite the bad damage and our timely reporting. We call customer service who insists we allow repair before they'd allow replacement. We made it clear that we were not accepting repair in lieu of replacement, and the tech tried to do his thing. Well, the corner still has cracks, the surface where the drop damage was repaired is uneven, and there's filler on the end that wasn't sanded away. Customer service called me 3-4 times last week to get pictures of the damage, this despite my telling them I work 50 hours/week and would do take and upload pictures ASAP. Well, finally get 10 pics and upload and email them Friday night. Why, then, does the service department call me at 8:30 a.m. Saturday morning?\n\nI called them back. \"Sir, we still haven't received your pictures.\" \"Really? I just sent them last night, and from two separate email accounts to make sure they went through. I sent 10 pictures of all the damage.\" \"Oh, that's why. Our email can only get two pictures at a time.\" Seriously, Ashley?! So, I proceed to send 5 separate emails, with two pictures per. Later that afternoon I get a call, \"We want to send another tech out to get a second opinion.\" I said, \"Of course you do, and how long will that take, ANOTHER month? We work 8am-7pm, M-F, so it has to be a weekend.\" \"Well, we have this and this date.\" \"Are either of those a Saturday?\" \"No, our next Saturday is 3 weeks out.\" Well, guess that's what it'll have to be based on what I JUST TOLD YOU.\n\nIn the end, we've paid almost $1,500 for a dining room table, received it badly damaged with damage in more than one place. Ashley CHARGED US for HORRIBLE SHIPPING and they have horrible customer service. We bought our bedroom furniture and couches at Walker for decent prices and free delivery!! Should've stuck with them!\n\nFOLLOW UP: Got a call from customer service for an exchange date, and they're going to exchange the table. Better late than never!

I was rear ended at a red light by another driver, and had my repairs estimated at Gerber Collision to be $1,755.04. I was working through Liberty Mutual, the other driver's insurance company. The car was deemed repairable, so I put it in the shop to get fixed. 6 days later, I get a call from Liberty Mutual, saying the just talked to Gerber Collision, and they added a supplement of $3,589.44 bringing the total to an eye watering $5,344.48. This is a '96 Saturn involved in a fender bender that damaged the trunk, rear bumper, and the right and left rear fenders. So I go down to Gerber to find out what could possibly be that expensive from this minor accident. I am walked out to my car to look at damage that is under the body panels. The estimator shows me crumple damage to the underbody on the left side behind where the bumper was. The only problem is that is not where the vehicle was hit, and its clear from the photos there was no damage to that area. The other car went up over the rear bumper and into the trunk, and never struck the bumper itself, because she was on the gas when she hit me. I showed the estimator at Gerber the photos, showing CONCLUSIVELY that this damage was obviously from a previous owner who had the outer body fixed over it, and that it wasn't part of this accident. It certainly shouldn't be included in the cost to bring the vehicle back to the condition it was in prior to this recent fender bender. She had already submitted the information to the insurance company as if it was part of this collision repair, even though it clearly wasn't. Really, Ray Charles could see that it wasn't... It's that obvious. When I asked why obviously inaccurate information was sent to the insurance company, I get the reply \"we write the damage we see.\" Now I am going through the mess of showing the insurance company that this damage was not part of this accident, all because the estimator at Gerber submitted old damage as new damage. Even with photos showing that area was absolutely free of any damage in this collision. If you have any sense, stay away from this shop. They are far from professional, and its just a headache waiting to happen.

Ive never been let down at the Triple 7! Ive been coming here for a few years now, and I make it a point to eat at least 1 meal here on every trip (about 3 or 4 trips a year). The Prime Rib for $7.95 is a great value, and it delivers on taste! Their beers are freakin awesome, and the service is great too! I always look forward to eating at the Triple 7!

I don't like to judge from one visit so I went back and really wish I hadn't. They were so rough and what was supposed to be a relaxing treat for myself was painful. They left my nails in such bad shape, when I went to have them repaired, the manicurist asked \"who did this to you!?\" Never again!\nOh, and I had an express pedicure and was charged for a deluxe. $15 difference. Bad service and a rip off.

Just Love this place!! Elan & her daughter & staff are just so friendly & accommodating. My toes feel so great after being here, they never rush anyone to get to the next customer like some salons. I got the greatest gel nails that sparkle! Fills went well too! They also have waxing, facial, and eyelash services. Elan is a one-stop shop for all your beauty needs. Clean, well lit salon right near my favorite Trader Joe's & a Great used book store, Amber Unicorn Books!! I think I need to move into this shopping center!!

So I found a dead fly in my salad....after when I was practically finished with the damn plate. Ummm yeah...looks like I won't be going to this place for a looooong time now. I'm completely turned off by Sweet Tomatoes at this point.\n\nGranted, I understand things happen and I'm sure I must of eaten some other \"unmentionables\" at one point or another in my life. Who knows what had happened \"back stage\" at other restaurants I've been to. BUT....seeing something like this RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME is just disgusting. \n\nImagine if I didn't see and actually swallowed it!? Geez...I don't even wanna imagine that. O_O \n\nWe told the manager on duty. He apologized and offered us two complimentary meal + drink passes for next time. HAHAHA....yeah, next time, my ass!!\n\nI took a picture of it but after I posted it on the \"tip section\" of the Yelp app, I deleted it off my phone. Ugh..don't want to be reminded of what I ALMOST put in my body.\n\nPeace out, Sweet Tomatoes.

This is an awesome spot and honestly a go-to for me and most of my friends. The beer is always solid (ask for the Bourbon-Barrel-Aged Kiltlifter, never advertised, offered rarely, but incredibly worth it) and the food is a cut above typical bar food. For real, apples to oranges kind of comparison. Only downfalls, parking can be a problem and the place is hopping almost any day of the week so if you've got a group of 4 or more it can be tricky getting a spot together right away. Staff is decent too. They usually have the menu and beers down like pro's but with a busy spot like this if you're in a rush and need constant attention this might not be the place for you.

Been a few times, ordered the same thing both times only to be told just as everyone else's food is coming out that they were out of what I ordered. My food didnt come out until everyone else was done eating and it was time to leave (part of my meal actually came out as we were walking out the door)...but I was still charged full price though! I will not be back.

Don't go for Breakfast! It's like a cheap Continental breakfast from a motel that has been sitting out and getting hard. You will get a better quality breakfast from the Pyramid cafe, which is on the casino floor. \n\nThe manager was nice enough to give us a refund and admitted that the variety for breakfast was very limited. Basically eggs, bacon and sausage & old pancakes.

I emailed the Manager Director the next day as LeAnn requested, and he ( Michael Heid) responded and said he would call me the next afternoon.\n\n Have never heard anything more from them.\n\n Apparently, fixing this restaurant and having satisfied customers is not on their list of priorities.. Wish I had read the yelp reviews before we spent the money on the bland, over cooked, overpriced food.\n\n I did notice that most of the positive and very lengthy in-depth reviews are from locals??? hmmm. I compared them to the other reviews.. Even the out of town 4/5 star reviews are not as indepth and lengthy...Makes me wonder if these locals have been asked to, or if they have been given incentives to leave this high feedback...

Fun place to be. Beer is expensive 15.00 for 1 liter of beer but the atmosphere is awesome. It's loud n you will be seated with other strangers but people do mind their own business. We fot the jumbo pretzel special for 13.95, yummy. The schnitzel was good n I got the 3 sausage combo for 19.99, kind of pricey. Don't forget to order your favorite shot n get a butt spanking for your beer maiden.

I have had about five pedicures and fills here. After living in Vegas for over 2 years, this is the most I have been to any salon. I am always happy with my service and that's what keeps me coming back. So far, I have had a pedicure by Tony and Tiffany, and have had my fills done by Aiden and Tiffany. Each time, I was very satisfied with the results. Their pedicures last the longest I have ever had as far as keeping away the calluses, and they always take their time and give me a nice long massage. I have been happy with every fill. I have extra long nails so any imperfection will show. No complaints at all. With my crazy work hours, I am grateful that with advanced notice, their other location will stay open late for you. Highly recommend.

New american veggie restaurant. ...pretty darn good! The fake meat is cooked well and has a good texture. We ordered the bowls, one with noddles and the other with brown rice and both were full of flavor and did not taste like what you would normally expect out of a vegetarian restaurant...it didn't tasty \"healthy\", it tasted good. We also got the spicy edamame.\n\nLove the taste and the flavor, only flaw is the price point. I would come here again, but if the price was $2 dollars less on each item, I would come here at least once a week.

After a lot of the great reviews, I had much higher hopes.\n\nOur service was really poor. The restaurant was 85-95% full at the tables, but there were seats at the burger bar. The server was slow to get around to take our order and just didn't seem like she wanted to be there or help us.\n\nThe zucchini fries were just okay. People were really all about them in reviews, but the breading wasn't much more than basic bar provolone stick breading. A few times the zucchini inside just slipped out leaving a sheath of uninteresting breading. Not awesome. The sweet potato fries were very good and the mac n cheese bites were good, but I seriously think it was just Kraft mac n cheese that was fried. That's not a complaint because I have a nostalgic fondness for that, and I have to say at least it was full of mac n cheese. Some fried mac n cheese I've had (like at state fairs) is mostly just breading.\n\nFor my burger, I was very undecided. I went with the natural source beef with brie, the red wine reduction sauce, mushrooms, and carmelized onions. It was appetizing and filling, but the bottom of my bun deteriorated. I went with the plain bun; maybe others are more substantial. I ended up eating the last half of my burger with a fork. Medium is more like medium rare. This doesn't bother me, but FYI in case you expect your burgers to be more cooked through. \n\nThe TV in our booth was not in our control, though the server did get the staff to change it. The TV was beat up with a good 20% section of poor/damaged pixels.\n\nOur milkshake was the best part.\n\nNot the worst meal I've had, but not good enough to make me come back.

I have nothing but good things to say about this place..so let me start with the only thing I don't care for..the fries..theyure the only thing that rates a \"meh\". They're skinny like McDonalds fries but not golden or crispy...does that help? Anyway other than that SCORE! The shake choices are extensive and freakin delicious. Yesterday i had the Blackberry Cobbler one and it was excellent. I managed to suck down the whole thing before my \"My Bleu Chicken\" showed up. There's nothing wrong with dessert first right? The chicken was sooo tender. That is the 3rd time Ive been and before I had a build your own burger and a build your own grilled cheese. You just can't go wrong here! There is something for everyone! Service is great and fast and food is delicious.. what more do you need?

First and Last time eating here.\n\nI ordered a takeout order that was said to take 15-20 minutes. I showed up about 20 minutes after I placed my order. I had very quick service when it came to ringing me up and paying. Then I waited, thinking my food would be ready soon. \nIn total it took about 50 minutes from the time I ordered to get my food. While I was waiting I was not recognized by any of the staff, only in the way as far as I could tell. The one very disturbing thing I did see that, more than just the general uncleanliness of the restaurant, would make me not go back, was that one of the waiters (who appeared to be the manager), came out of the kitchen with an entr\u00e9e he was about to take to one of the tables, grabbed a fork from over where the dirty dishes were (I only hope the fork he took was from a clean pile, b/c they had been putting dirty dishes in that area since I got there), and scraped off parts of the noodle dish into the trash before taking that plate to one of the tables.\n\nThe food itself was on par in my opinion with Little Dumplings and several of the other local thai places I have visited in the area as far as the Pad Thai is concerned (had 7 star spicy). I only hope this was a one time incident b/c that was the first time I had ever seen anything like that happen in a restaurant (though other restaurants may do the same, but I had never seen that before).\n\nI hope I just visited them in an off night, but there are enough other places in the area I could go that I will not be going back to Thai Basil.

First time coming & I came because of the previous Yelp reviews. I tried the Almond Roca Mocha aka \"ARM\" on ice that was about $4 something. \nReally yummy & has a bold taste if you like a little chocolate kick. Also ordered a chocolate chip cookie which I couldn't finish right away! Pretty decent size w/ lots of chocolate morsels! \n\nOverall, I'm sure I will come back & try new other drinks!

Since the Fat Burgers in Illinois all closed, I was thrilled to be able to walk out of the Aria and see a Fat Burger -with a bar - that we could have lunch at while sitting outside. We also got hit with the \"2 for one\" drink tickets, so make it a burger, a chicken sandwich, some fried and two fat tire. All this for under $30. Yum!

DO NOT RENT FROM THEM! SERIOUSLY!!\n\nRecently, I had a painful and horrible experience from them:\n1 - I was quoted online for $32. I declined coverage but I was charged for collision damage waive fee! Final total came to $94! \nDecline insurance or not, you still get charge for it!\n\nWhile they're processing my booking, one of the front desk attendants was called in the back office to service another customer. She came out unhappy and grumbled to the other customer that she was just getting coffee with not an ounce of friendliness in her tone and face! Nice job, lady! Very \"professional\" indeed! \n\n2 - They took my driver's license to make a copy but they never gave it back.\n\n3 - Came back to the rental car to remove those \"extra fees\" (and to retrieve my driver's license) by \"re-writing\" my contract. While the attendant is processing it, another customer beside me was having the same \"wonderful\" experience as I was! The other customer was complaining about the extra fees charged. \n\n4 - Also tried to get my driver license back but the manager at the time was out so the Payless employees couldn't open the office door where they stored my license. They said she'll be back around 4:30. The employees said that no one can contact the managers if they're on a meeting (in a different building). They tried calling but the calls were routed back to them. \nSince I couldn't risk driving without my license, I ended up waiting for the manager to come back more than an hour later (around 5:20 pm).\n\n5 - I checked my Amex (which I used for the car rental) and I saw 4 pending transactions charged by them:\n i. $200\n ii. $200\n iii. $ 94\n iv. $ 32\n\nWhat the F!!!!!! Where in the world did the 2 - $200 charges came from? And since they charged $32 again when they re-wrote my contract to remove the extra insurance/coverage fees, I didn't see any pending credit transaction to refund the $94!!\n\nI do think the employees are not treated well and respected by the management and the company. Horrible customer service means horrible work environment, horrible management and horrible company practices (like charging extra fees!). \n\nWith that said, I will definitely not come back to Payless LV. If I knew at the time of the reservation that this horrible experience would happen, I would have run the other way as quick as I can. \n\nHowever, I do want to thank the lady who finally retrieved my driver's license. She pursued the manager when she arrived to personally get it.

Nice clean looking hotel. I didn't care for the toilet in one room and the shower in another. Not a huge fan of the sliding non-locking doors on the bathrooms. I have kids and would love sometimes just a couple of minutes to take a shower or get ready in peace without one of the kids coming in. \n\nThey have free breakfast in the lobby. It was okay. nothing to brag about. I would have rather gone downstairs to the Panera for breakfast. \n\nAt $247 a night I am not sure I would return to this one again.

One of the best inexpensive breakfast or lunch setups you will find in Vegas, as long as you don;t mind valet parking (free) downstairs to access it. Food is well prepared, prices are very low (not sure who put $$$, as this is more $.\n\nDecor is quiet and beautiful, service great. Can only guess that they do this as a service to their guests. Couldn't recommend it more after eating here many times.

First off the pizza is FANTASTIC. that is if the waitresses ever come around and serve you.\n\nThe first time my husband and i went and had dinner before trivia. the waitress acted like it was a bother to wait on us. \n\nWe went several times after that and just got dessert or something small and it was no problem.\n\nThe last time (and it will be the last time) we had the pizza. It was fabulous, but I couldn't even tell the waitress that because the two of us had eaten the entire thing (i'd say at least 30 - 40 min) before we tracked her down and asked for drink refills and the check. we waited another 30 or so minutes and she brought it. (another 30 minutes went by) and finally she came over to table and said \"are you waiting for me\" no joke. it was the worst. I felt bad leaving a tip, and that says alot. I mean i can see where the pizzas are and where the drink machine is. could have done it myself.\n\nI won't be back.

Took my 4 year old here for his first sushi, since some reviews said kid-friendly. The staff was great and even brought him some specially rigged chopsticks. I must admit, I was a bit jealous!\n\nFor apps, we ordered veggie tempura & edamame. There tempura batter is very light and the veggies were a perfect texture. The edamame was above average.\n\nWe ordered a rainbow roll and a philly roll. My son graciously tried both but is not a fan of the stuff just yet. I however, thought both were delicious!\n\nThe only reason I am giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is the ambiance there. The flourescent lighting is terrible, I reccommend it for lunch more so than a romantic date. The attentive smiling staff made up for that, though so I will likely be back

This place is a freaking joke!\n\nMy dog had an abscess tooth root and his face was swollen up. \n\nI brought him in and he was misdiagnosed with a bug bite and given some antibiotics to get rid of the swelling: $200. \n\nA year later it came back big time and was infected! They lanced it and gave me medicine until he could get an extraction: $200\n\nBrought him in for the extraction which cost $600 and they pulled a tooth on the wrong side of his mouth!! \n\nWhen I contacted them they wanted me to pay to have them remove the correct tooth!! Finally after not backing down they decided to do my the \"courtesy\" of extracting the correct tooth free of charge but refused to refund any of the now $1000 I had paid previously for his treatment even though they knew that I had to open a care credit card to pay for the surgery!!\n\nMy dog now has two large gaps on either side of his mouth and has trouble eating...\n\nNever! Ever! Ever! Let them near your dog!!

Stopped by here to hang out with our buddies before hitting the clubs during Labor Day weekend. What I really liked about this place was that the gaming area was really big, lots of games, modern layout, plus lobby areas were all modern too. What I didn't like was the room, they looked a little old, you can definitely tell they spent a fortune renovating everything except the rooms. Plus, the place was dead, no one was partying there. In comparison to were we stayed, at Hard Rock, the lobby was old, but the rooms were nice and modern, plus the place was busy with peeps during the day due to the pool scene.

This is indeed a hidden gem. I don't really care for the grocery store, but crawling all the way through to the back, you'll find a quiet and small restaurant. \n\nAnd boy can this small restaurant serve the most amazing and authentic Mexican dishes ever! And cheap, might I add! My first time at this place, I ordered 5 things on the menu, came out stuffed, and yearning to go back again. Whatever cheese they use must be fairy dust. Whatever taco shells and starch wrappings they use must be magical runes. \n\nDo not let the looks of Tienda Los Gemelos deceive you. Because if you do, you will surely miss out on the magic carpet ride.

The staff, doctors, PAs, RNs, etc are mostly great! They are very quick, efficient, low waiting time (if there is any), great location, able to see you same day (if you call 8am - 8:30am), and all around exceed expectations..... The only reason I did not rate this business 5/5 is because when I have called the main line to make an appointment or to request a follow up phone call, the receptionists can be curt. I understand they have business to conduct, but speaking as if you are mid-bite into a sandwich,yelling to background noise while on the phone, and being short is a difficult combination to tolerate..... especially when there are so many other places to go to in North Scottsdale.\n\nI will continue going there, I think they are a great group of doctors / medical professionals, and I am overall very happy with Paradise Valley Family Medicine.

Krazy Fish has a cool aesthetic going on... it reminds me a lot of a couple Outer Banks places, such as Goombay's or Tortuga's Lie. It's colorful, cluttered, and kinda fun.\n\nThe service was friendly. Somehow, I managed to spill my drink (apparently I reverted to childhood), but the waitress handled it with good humor. This is worth a couple points in my book.\n\nOur meal took a little while to arrive, which seemed odd, given that we were having a late lunch and there were only a few other customers. Once it did appear, however, it was satisfying. I ordered the salmon tacos, which were on special, and I demolished them in short order. Even more delicious was the jalapeno cheddar grits casserole. It was more like just grits than a casserole, but it was amazing. Thinking about it is making me crave another serving.\n\nI hereby endorse Krazy Fish with 4 whole Yelp stars. It's good to know there's a relatively convenient place to get my fish taco fix. No more going to NoDa just to get 'tude from the Cabo staff.

So, Fran's has amazing food and I love the quirky atmosphere of the place. My only complaint is that, considering it was slow when we went last Friday, the service was pretty sluggish and, considering the portion sizes, the meal was a bit pricey. We'll definitely go back, but we'll have to budget ahead of time. We both had the bison enchiladas and were completely in love with every bite!

I went there after getting a mailer and found out it was dollar taco night. I tried one Pastor, Carne Asade, and Chicken taco with rice, beans, chips and salsa. The tacos were served on good flour tortillas and were substantial. The meats were very tasty, but perhaps not as fresh as I would have liked. They have a few salsas (mild and hot green and red) and an avocado sauce that are really nice on the tacos. The chips and salsa was very week. The chips served were store-bought, and were not appealing at all. The salsas were the same options served with the tacos. The tacos are most like street tacos you get in Mexico, but are likely much more safe for consumption. \n\nThe first experience was good enough that I went back for a breakfast burrito. It was about 10:45 am. Their website advertised that breakfast is served all day, and when I asked for a breakfast burrito they seemed unsure if they had the proper ingredients. They confirmed that they were able to make breakfast burritos, and I was very pleased. The breakfast burritos were huge. I had one with eggs (probably 3) bacon and potatoes, and it was fresh and delicious. I also added some of their salsas, and I have to say that was probably the best breakfast burrito I have ever had. And I have had many.\n\nI recommend Zlantro. It has great, authentic Mexican food, at a great price.

Staff was very friendly and attentive. They answered all my questions regarding the dishes and steak without any ounce of \"snootiness\". Wine list is electronic and your search can be narrowed by grape, cost, or region. Steaks were cooked exactly as ordered and the bone marrow accompaniment was VERY generous for an add on price of only $9. I actually gave half of mine to my friend who didn't order for his steak. Reservations are basically a requirement (especially on a weekend). \n\nThe only downside is that some of the patrons are a little on the loud side and there really didn't seem to be a dress code enforced, but hey, its Vegas so you just have to expect that with the territory, even at this price point.

I love Chipotle and lived in a town without one for a couple years. I was really excited to move to Champaign and finally be able to have Chipotle once a week for lunch again but this location just sucks. The employees are rude and move so slow. They give really skimpy portion sizes. The guac, rice, and tea taste different than all the others I've eaten at. This location goes against everything Chipotle stands for. It's such a shame.

Best Chinese food I have had in Arizona that is not dim sum. This newly opened George & Son Chinese & Asian Cuisine Restaurant is next to the AMC Deer Valley movie theater, and they already have another restaurant by the same name in Scottsdale (same recipes). I came here for lunch and tried their Mongolian Beef ($7.95) and Shrimp with Walnuts (Honey Walnut Shrimp) ($8.95) lunch platters. It comes with salad, crab puff, vegetable roll, lo mein and steam rice. Although their salad tasted warm (should be served colder), everything else tasted great with flavors that jumps out at you! Beef was tender with lots of flavors from the sauce and scallions, and honey walnut shrimp was breaded well with yummy sauce and fresh walnuts. Good portion size too. They have typical Chinese dishes such as Egg Foo Young, Fried Rice (6 varieties), Moo Shu Pork, Ma Po Tofu, but also items such as Hong Kong Style Ribs, Pad Thai, and Salt & Pepper Shrimp. Hosts and waitresses are all very friendly (even seems over friendly), and asks for your feedback on their food. It looks like they have a full bar, modern decor, and clean. If everyone is giving Shangri-La 4 stars, then this place truly deserves 6 stars! However I know good Chinese food, so I am giving this place 4.5 stars for being the best Chinese restaurant I know in AZ. I would highly recommend going here for lunch and try their lunch combinations, but dinner too ($10+/dish) if you have people to share dishes with. More reviews to come! \n\nThis restaurant's address is: 3049 W Agua Fria Fwy Phoenix, AZ 85027 next to the movie theater (for some reason Yelp is not allowing me to update this address)

Our family has been a fan of Monit's for about 40 years now. The last few times we went there I had been less than impressed with the service and food. They have made some changes evidently because this last experience was much better. Although the menu prices have gone up, the quality and service have improved dramatically over previous visits. The place looked like it had undergone some renovations and looked cleaner and fresher. Service was pretty quick and the food all done to perfection. Their rosemary bread is always awesome and we were all impressed. We will always be fans, but it was a nice improvement and glad to see it back to where it had been years ago.

Hands down worst service that I have ever experienced. Took about 20 minutes to get soup, not even mediocre soup at that. The order was wrong, our server offered to change it but I was so hungry that I just said it was ok. She looked at me and said, \"it's not a big deal.\" Go back to training and learn what not to say to guests!

WOW! I am very, very surprised to read all the positive reviews for this place. We had sticker shock when reading the menu, which looked like it was printed from a home computer. A spaghetti and meatball dinner is 13 dollars WITHOUT a dinner salad! Other pasta based entree's were around $15-19. Not filet mignon or a lobster tail, just pasta, ALSO WITHOUT a dinner salad. The caesar salad we ordered was HORRIBLE. Can you say VINEGAR dressing??? We ordered a pizza that ended up tasting like a frozen pizza you buy from the store. The wine glasses were tiny and the wine was cheap. I changed my glass of wine for something at least drinkable. The couple next to us had the same problems, and experience. When the owner came out to their table argued with them and didn't offer a discount on their meal. I'm sure they will never be dining there again, as we will not either. SAD, because it would have been nice to have a quaint place to eat just down the road from us.

Who should eat here: Some one that wants a great steak, and price is no object. Let me repeat: price is no object (this place is off the charts expensive, and yes I do know its Vegas, and Mina's name is on it)\n \n1 Star - Lacking/Turn Off\n2 Stars - Needs Work, But fixable\n3 Stars - Adequate\n4 Stars - Near perfect, rough edge here or there\n5 Stars - Can't get much Better\n \nAmbience/Atmosphere: 3.5 stars. Big and open, with a very modern a sleek feel. I found it a bit uncomfortable to be honest, but I guess not that bad for Vegas. Has a cool bar, and the cocktails are very good. \n \nService: 4 stars. A tiny bit cold and service is a little bit snotty, but not to the point where it would bother you. They know what they are doing and they are extremely professional. They will not miss a beat at all, but I found overall they were very un-personable. \n \nFood: 4.5 stars. Mina has done it again with the food. First off they brought us three little cones filled with french fries, with three dipping sauces. Not a big fan of fries, but these were pretty damn good, cooked to a crispy light brown, they had the most flavor I think I have ever experience in a french fry. I had a American Kobe steak tartar to start. They prepared it table side, mixing the small pieces of chopped steak with 9 ingredients and spices. This app was off the charts. Probably a little too rich if you plan on having a steak for you main, but if you are going to go for an alternative or are just getting apps, ORDER THIS DISH! The meat in the tartar could have been some of the most delicious steak I have had in a long time. It literally melted in my mouth. For entree I opted for the pork loin. This dish was crazy good and I will have to say exceeded my expectations in every way possible. If you are not going to order a steak for your main, I would seriously consider this as an option. It had a bitter orange type sauce that was sooo good, and was perfect with the flavors of the pork. Given time constraints we passed on dessert, so no comment on the sweets.\n \nWine: 4 stars. First off Strip has a 5 star wine list, I am knocking it a star because it has no value. Expect well over a double in mark up, and in most cases more. The staff is well skilled on the list, which was a plus for me too. If price is no object I would focus on some of the Bordeaux on the list, they have all the trophies. But be prepared to put a big dent in the wallet.\n \nOverall: Well this definitely is Mina in style. He really knows how to create a food experience. I have to say though, I would really struggle to recommend Strip to anyone, given that I don't think the experience really holds up to the prices. I really have never had a problem paying a lot for dinner, but this was a little ridiculous. Good luck, and happy dining.

I had my makeup done for a speaking engagement. It was a gift from a friend so I am not sure how much the services run but I have to say that I was very happy with the outcome! \n\nI've only had my makeup done professionally a few times in my life (minus the quick touch ups from department store counters).\n\nI wasn't a cake face mess (this was a huge fear) and it stayed all day. I liked it so much that I even bought some custom foundation afterwards. It was under $30 for the foundation and it looks like it will last for a long time. I don't normally ever wear it, but I really liked the stuff they used on me, it felt natural and really evened out my skin tone.\n\nI recommend Palmina Leone, wish I could get my face done more often!

Dim sum done well for pocket change. I always get the chicken feet and char shiu bao. In order to eat some delicious dim sum, you must be willing to make a few sacrifices. \n\nOn busy days, the servers will probably never be there to help you or even bring you water. You must be proactive and actually walk up to these guys. Expect a few scowls from the ladies pushing their carts. No one can be continuously cheerful pushing one of these things all morning. And when they do smile, you know it's gonna be a good day:) \n\nOh, and don't wait for your check at the table. Bring your little stamp card up front so they can ring you up. Otherwise, you could be there forever. Why give it 4 stars, you ask? Chinese restaurants are notorious for bad service. I'm grading on a curve.

My wife and I had lunch at Chestnut restaurant at 44th st and Camelback yesterday. It was a terrible experience. The staff in the back was very loud joking around and laughing. They were stacking chairs and moving empty tables to prepare for end of day cleanup. (They close at 2pm in the summer). The manager was oblivious to what was going on. The food was not much better than the staff!! Go somewhere else!!!!

Amazing little shop. The gelato is freshly made using the freshest products and it is the cleanest place I've ever been in. The gelato is amazing and worth every penny. The owners went to school to learn the technique and obviously they were great students!\nThe lemon ricotta was very refreshing and I paired it with the luscious strawberry that was the best I've ever had. My husband raved abt the pistachio which is actually made from a pistachio paste that comes from Italy. The nice and sweet owners, their super clean locale and the adorableness of being a stand alone shop in a strip mall makes it outstanding!!

One of my favorite downtown restaurants. It seems many people feel this way ...consequentially the weekend nights can be pretty slammed... expect to wait a good half hour. But its well worth it and besides you can get the evening started out right with a glass of wine from the bar. \n\nI love the intimate yet sleek atmosphere. There is exposed brick walls and beams on the ceiling, vintage yet modern interior... great lighting and little candles everywhere. The exterior is just as inviting! \n\nWe opted for the chicken flatbread and pork chile verde...both of which were really excellent and fairly inexpensive for the quality and vibe of the restaurant. I think this is one of my favorite things about St. Francis... you feel like you should be paying more than $10-15 for a meal... but then the bill comes and you are pleasantly surprised! \n\nSo guys.... remember St. Francis when you are choosing a date locale... its super cute, looks to be on the fancier side, but won't break the bank!

I had very high expectations for this restaurant since it served teppanyaki and okonomiyaki. I got the takoyaki and the Osaka Mix (shrimp, squid, and pork) for okonomiyaki. The octopus in the takoyaki and squid in the okonomiyaki were cooked to the point where they were rubbery and hard to eat. My friend got the teppanyaki with shrimp and I sampled her dish. The shrimp seemed like it had been pre-cooked and then added when the teppanyaki was being made. On top of that, we had to wait for a long time to get seated even though the waitress kept on saying that we would be seated in ten-fifteen minutes.

I had the best experience here. It's not fancy or anything, but Mr Kim is incredible. He's got decades of experience, studied in London. He's the only stylist I would trust in the state to do Japanese Thermal Straightening (Yuko) on my hair. Now my hair air dries sleek and gorgeous, and so shiney! And it was so affordable! I will drive the 45 minutes every time - so worth it!

I often get a sandwich for lunch from Premiere Moisson. Today was roast beef, caramelized onions and cheese (can't remember what kind) on a fresh baguette. Needless to say, I was a little sad when I finished it. \n\nWhen I'm not in the mood for a sandwich, the olive bread or one of their many focaccias hits the spot. \n\nI love bread... Enough said.

Vegan Nachos are awesome! Large tequila selection and good margaritas. I have always had great service and like their bar and patio. I just wish they were open later

This place is AMAZING! It's got that cozy-family feel and the food is delicious every time we come. Their Eggs Benedict, their Skillets and they're Pancakes...OMG their pancakes are unbelievable! We've had the Red Velvet, Banana & Nutella ones, all delicious!

First time dealing with Total Eclipse, called to find out their prices for 5 windows. They told me to come down and I did with no appointment. Overall work time came out to be just a little under 45 min. Found the work to be pretty good. I've gotten my vehicles tinted at other places and found this one to be the most pleasant. Good job total eclipse.

I'm very picky about my eyebrows it has taken me years to find someone that Keeps them nice and arch and thick . In desperate need I thought id give them a try and best decision ever made! Jennifer is amazing at eyebrows I can't express that enough. She is the only one I trust with them and I've been going to her for over a year.

01/22/13 MATINEE\n\nWe got to this theater complex, which we've never used before, a full 40 minutes prior to the 205pm showtime of \"The Impossible\". \n\nBut we never got to see the film. \n\nWHY? \n\nBecause after waiting in a line for the box office, we were told by someone in the box office that (unlike the Century Suncoast) in order to take advantage of Tuesday-only \"geezer\" rates, you had to walk over to a \"kiosk\", swipe your Boyd card, get a coupon, then return to that box office line again, and then they will honor said coupon for the rate. \n\nWell, there was a line for the \"kiosk\", a Microsoft piece-of-s**t contraption. Took forever. WHY are they sending these poor, older folks over to an \"electronica\" device, to do this bulls**t step? Plus there was no one around to help people. \n\nThen, when one of our \"geezer\"s cards was swiped, it said \"I cannot look up your information at this time\", or some such message. \n\nSo we gave up.\n\nInstead, we drove to the \"new\" AMC Town Square (AMC purchased the theaters from RAVE), where they are still honoring the $5 Tuesday rate, and we saw the movie! \n\nWe will never return to this Century cineplex. We'll continue to go to Century Cinedome Henderson & Century Suncoast, because we've had little to any problems there. (Other than \"talkers\" and \"seat-kickers\" and \"perfume factories\", and we've given up trying to avoid those people. It's useless. Which is why we'll be cutting WAY back on movie theaters, in 2013 and beyond.)

I soooo love this place for breakfast. Original, chock full of flavor, unique and delicious. If you haven't had breakfast here yet, you don't know what you are missing. \n\nWe showed up a group of four and managed to catch a table outside. We were all so curious about every dish, we all ended up ordering something different and played musical plates with our dishes. Even the jar of Greek yogurt was a freaking hit.... so tasty... so good. \n\nDon't miss this one next time you are looking for something different for breaky, it will win your taste buds and your heart.

Hubby and I stopped in because we really like watching Guy Fieri on Foodnetwork, so we had high hopes for this place. Needless to say, we were disappointed. The waiter was nice, but extremely slow & brought my husband the wrong beer. We had the chili cheese fries. I thought they were pretty tasty, but my husband thought they were a bit soggy. The portion size was enough for 4 people to share. I got the tilapia tacos & my husband got the regular cheeseburger. I had to send my entree back (which I never, ever do) because it straight up tasted & smelled like rotten fish. My Hubby's burger was soggy & over cooked. Our waiter took my entree off the bill, which was greatly appreciated. However, our bill was still over $70 for mediocre food. The atmosphere left a lot to be desired as well. Very disjointed table placement.

Are you 'etching' to do some art? Then Greyfriars is the place for you. I went into Greyfriars Art Store looking for a birthday present for a creative friend, but without knowing the first thing about art supplies. The shop assistant, Jenny, was very helpful and did not mind my asking for advice on different materials, in fact she was very knowledgeable without being condescending. It turns out there are a lot of different supplies!\nThe shop sells everything an artist could need, from paints to charcoals, pencils to pens, canvases and all sorts of paper. She gave me a few different options, after steering me away from my initial idea of charcoal (he'll already have it) we agreed on ink pencils, which to be honest were something I never knew existed. Mainly because of their patience and expertise, Greyfriars is to be commended, especially if you are a beginner or if you are buying for someone else, but also more than adequate for the accomplished artist. From my perspective, the shop made a great impression.

DO NOT waste your time and money at Foot Solutions Scottsdale! Recently my 90 year old mother in law went to Foot Solutions to see what kind of \"solution\" they could offer because she has a size 6 & 8 foot. She barely had her foot in the door and was bombarded with a handful of sales people. Over the last 70 years she, my mother in law, has purchased 2 separate pair of shoes to accommodate for her differences in size. $400.00 and an hour later Foot Solutions put her into a pair of size 8 shoes and bulked up the size 6 shoe to make the shoe fit!!!! Apparently they did not take into account that she would have to retrain herself to walk in a shoe that is 2 sizes bigger than what she is used to!!!!!!! She is 90 and already does not walk well. Talk about an accident waiting to happen!!!! The sales person told her to try the shoes around the house for 2 weeks and if she was not happy she could return the shoes. Because she walks so little she barely wore the shoes and the 2 weeks passed. A week later her and I were discussing the \"new\" shoes. She expressed that they were uncomfortable and felt like she was going to fall. I immediately drove to Foot Solutions hoping in good faith they would make an exception and provide us with a refund. I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting one of the most unprofessional and rude sales person, the owner. She was VERY defensive and unwilling to help because we exceeded the 2 week return date. She kept questioning my mother in law like she was on trial. In fact, during our conversation I told her I did not appreciate that she was talking over me and as the customer I did not appreciate it. Needless to say, no refund was provided which is fine we chalked up the experience as a loss but my mother in law is safe. A little common sense and compassion would have been a much better solution for the not so Foot \"Solution\" store!!!!!!

Talk about un almuerzo perfecto! I had a fantastic lunch here on my last day in Vegas. Originally planning on going somewhere else in the Cosmo for lunch, we instead ended up here and it was a perfect choice. Not that we were surprised - it's Jose Andres, after all.\n\nThe lunch menu offers a $26 prix fixe menu of salad, gazpacho and a choice of paella of the day or sandwich(es) of the day; there is also a fantastic a la carte selection of cured meats and other small dishes; and of course, no tapas meal is complete without a pitcher of sangria (which quickly escalated our lunch to well over $100 for two).\n\nThe paella that day was a chicken and mushroom, which at first I was skeptical of. My heart is very loyal to seafood paella, but I gave this a shot and it was outstanding. The chicken (all dark meat) was tender and juicy, the rice was cooked to perfection and with rich flavors, and the whole thing was served with a garlic aoili that was spread across half the plate. Yummmm.\n\nFor the sandwich option, there were three to choose from. We opted for the chorizo/tomato sandwich and it, too, was a winner. Light, crispy and flavorful, served with Jose Andres' own pink himalayan salt potato chips. \n\nFrom the a la carte menu, we were tempted to order a few dishes, but knew our eyes were bigger than our stomachs. There was plenty of food already for the two of us, but we had to try a little something extra.\n\nWe went with the endives and oh. my. goodness.\n\nThe endives/goat cheese/orange/almonds dish might've been the single most refreshing combination of flavors I've tasted all year. I could've had 10 orders of that and called it a day.\n\nFor dessert, we had the flan. I prefer a simple, traditional flan, but still ate every bite of this creative take on it. It was served with orange slices, a sorbet and a whipped creamy something. No complaints here!\n\nI love when a meal - unplanned and unresearched - delights and surprises. Jaleo hit the spot.

I've not been back to Las Vegas since 2002 in February, it wasn't due to a lack of interest just that it isn't a place I would take the kids, so we decided to not travel back so often... more then 8 years later the experience was less then grand and that was largely due to Treasure Island, which is not a treasure at all. The Manager at the front desk who listened to my complaints was kind enough to look around as I explained what I was displeased with; even looked at his cell phone a couple of times. The front desk manager was a younger guy, round in face and body with dark hair; he was the perfect example of someone who should be washing dishes or taking out the garbage because very simply he should NOT interact with other people. My complaints were about how we were greeted, to our room and continued on to the general attitude of all the staff. In every store we went employees were constantly checking their cell phones, not really listening to you or treating you with an \"oh great an interruption to our conversation just walked in.\" I was surprised that the Manager had the same attitude, when I informed him that I would not ever return to his hotel, he simply stated he would give us a comp to The Coffee Shop or Buffet to our choice but didn't have much else to say. I was encouraged to go speak to managers of the different areas of the hotel I had issue with, but that was it. Please see my reviews of the other locations within the hotel. \n\nThe hotel Lobby - No sign or indication where to check in, but the \"Check Out\" counter was HUGE and the first thing you see when you enter... I guess that is because people are more encouraged to leave this establishment then enter. Stale smoke was in the air, every staff member sighed, looked at their phones and tried to get you to leave quickly... for us it meant we had to return because we received the wrong package, and when we informed them we were told we couldn't be helped and we had to go to the Mystere counter and they would have not just our appropriate 2 free buffet tickets but our Mystere tickets, of course they took back the initial package they gave us with the 2 for 1 buffet and Cocktails. Our room was clean, the staff who cleaned was nice, anyone of them should have been promoted to manager, we were in room 6073. \n\nWhile at the Blackjack table, they increased the dollar amount while I was at it, later I found out when a table is empty they lower the minimum then increase it as soon as 1-3 people sit down, and at one point I needed to hit a cash machine and informed if I left I would lose my lower Minimum. I was lucky to see the cocktail waitress once an hour, and she would either get orders or drop off drinks, not both at the same time. So if she was dropping drinks off at the table and someone tried to order she said \"No, I will be back\" and she'd come back maybe 20min later. One of the dealers who was at the table though nice had a bit of a superior attitude and kept informing two British men who were playing that she deserved a tip, and would take a portion of their winnings and declare \"That's yours this is mine\" and pop it in her tip box, although they didn't protest to it never in a million years would I have put up with that. She didn't try it on anyone else, but it certainly wasn't appropriate. The amenities at the TI (Treasure Island) are nil, there are 4 places to eat that I saw, a costume jewelry store, Mystere (which has to be the worst Cirque Du Solei show I have ever seen (and I've seen 3 others which I loved). If I go back to Vegas I would NEVER return to this hotel, and I would also mention that most of the hotels now are owned by the same companies, which means there is no competition; if you stay at one and have a bad experience they just expect you'll stay at another they own. The TI is horribly located, has no real redeeming features and the staff from the front door, servers, bar tenders, restaurants all the way to the manager would rather ignore you then show you that they're pleased you chose to have a vacation in their establishment.
