My experience was awful and I wasted my time even going here. They only care about the money & pay no attention to service. I came in for a used car & they kept adding to their so called "family & friends" "discounted" prices. They couldn't care less about their customers, and on top of that, the place is just dirty and unprofessional when you look around. I don't know how this place is in business still honestly. Maybe act like you care about your customers' experiences and then you'll get a sale. I would highly recommend NOT going here if you want a good car - and good service. | 01 star |
This was my first visit. The lamb/beef gyro was fantastic! The pita was so fresh. I can't wait to return and try all their menu items. The owner was there, very friendly! | 45 stars |
This place is THE BOMB!. I don't know why but this place just stood out to me in so many ways. Great service. Clean place & the food was excellent. Just the guacamole dip with chips to start was outstanding. | 45 stars |
I cannot rave enough about the private tasting we did for my bachelorette party at Grinder's Switch! It was the highlight of my entire trip.
We scheduled the tasting for 8, and we entered the location to see it all set up with cheese and chocolate pairings. It was an AMAZING spread right off the bat. The presentation was top notch.
Our tasting manager was very knowledgeable, giving us background on all the wines and the pairings. The pairings were huge for a wine tasting and allowed us to snack while we enjoyed our wines. We also got a lot of background on the winery. My favorite wines were the drier red variety; they have a ton of sweeter wines, which aren't my favorite, but they were still good with the pairings.
At the conclusion of the tasting, they helped us ship wines home and set us up with cups of frosè to enjoy as we walked around. The service and presentation are unparalleled. I highly recommend this place. | 45 stars |
Good quality and fast service. Not the freshest but we are 700 miles + from the ocean. Bang for the buck for Shrimp Fest! | 34 stars |
People of Yelp how you have done me wrong :( Tried Chef Vargas last evening after all the amazing reviews and I have to say this is one of the worst restaurants I have ever tried. Which is saying a lot because we eat out a lot. Chef Vargas is around the back end of a very run down apartment building in Elkins Park. After you walk up the steps open a door to all I can think of was maybe at one time this was a community room kitchen you find Chef Vargas. I should have turned and run back down the stairs at this point. We were seated by a nice woman with a friendly face which was the only positive part of the evening. We placed our orders for myself Chicken Fajitas which they seem to specialize in Mexican food although they don't have many items on the menu. My husband order the breakfast burger cooked medium and then we really should have run because she didn't know what medium was. Mind you this is a place that had maybe 5 burgers on the menu.
Our food came out in a reasonable amount of time and once that burger hit the table we realized the yelp pictures were all stock pictures they found on the internet. The burger was tiny and the beef to bun ratio was way off. Husband said it was dry and had no flavor. My fajitas that I was dreaming about all day had no flavor at all. WHAT how am I ordering Mexican food and it has no flavor. Seriously I haven't had Taco Bell in years but I'm sure that would have tasted more Mexican than this crap.
So we obviously won't be back to Chef Vargas but I'm sure it's very nice for the residents that live in the Apartment complex to have a mediocre restaurant right downstairs. | 01 star |
We are new to Indian cuisine. I ordered chicken tikka masala and my SO ordered lamb tikka masala. Our waitress helped my SO choose the lamb korma so that way we could sample different flavors. It was very kind of her to help us explore different tastes. We really felt like she cared about us having a good experience. So thankful to have stopped in. | 45 stars |
I would do my absolute diligence and avoid this place at all costs. We have taken a very expensive comforter to them several times with no problems before.
This time around, we got the comforter home and noticed burning on the softer side of it. It looked like either someone dumped some sort of chemical on it or heated it. We took it back the next morning and the woman working told us to come back in a couple hours when her husband came in, and he would talk to the owner about reimbursement for the blanket; mind you, it's a 250 dollar comforter.
We come back, and the husband is immediately hostile and refuses to reimburse the damages, despite the back of the ticket saying they will compensate for damages up to 10 times of the amount of the cleaning service (in this case, well over 30 dollars to clean it). Being completely smug and extremely unprofessional the entire time, he refuses to let us get in contact with the owner or tell us when he will be in so we can talk with him directly.
Until we are fairly compensated for the damages, we will be telling everyone we know to avoid this place like the plague. And if we don't hear from the owner soon we may look into small claims damages since they destroyed the blanket with 0 apologies, let alone any acceptance of responsibility. | 01 star |
My wife and I stopped in for a quick bite. We were instantly greeted by the whole staff. I orders the CBB and my wife had the biscuit with sausage and cheese. We both loved our meal so much we had to order another biscuit.
Great food and service. | 45 stars |
Had the prime rib for $23 and it was delicious. The decor is a run down roadhouse theme with dollar bills stapled to the wall, glass covered tables and plastic salad plates. If you can go with a sense of humor and not expecting too much, except Budweiser and decent food, you will enjoy yourself. | 34 stars |
Wow! I'm not much on Cajun cuisine and I don't honestly know how this food compares to other Cajun places but I do know good food. The fried shrimp was perfectly cooked and fresh. The beignet bites....were a mess of sugary goodness. You need to go. | 45 stars |
My favorite items here were the Grilled Tuna w/greens and olive relish and the Fried Bread w/sea salt (non-complimentary). For $28, the portion of tuna was a bit small (just a bit larger than tapas-sized), but it was fresh and the garnishes tasted great. The fried bread is $5 for 5 or 6 donut hole-sized pieces, but it was delicious and I could probably have eaten an order of these all by myself.
The Seafood Gumbo, however, was another story. I don't know what catfood tastes like, but the seafood gumbo here made me think that if cats had an appetite for soup, this is what it would taste like. For a soup that barely contained any seafood, the level of fishiness was overwhelming. Just to make sure I wasn't imagining things, I tried seafood gumbo at 2 other restaurants in the city the next day, and both had more seafood in them and less of a fishy taste and smell.
I also got a taste of the hanger steak and smothered catfish. The steak was excellent, but the catfish was EXTREMELY salty (as if the top came off when they were pouring the salt to season the sauce). When it was time for dessert, they ran out of pineapple rum cake, but they offered key lime pie as an alternative, and it was good. It had a particularly delicious crust.
Overall, I expected more from a restaurant in this price range. From price vs. food standpoint, the experience was probably 2-star worthy, but the busser (tall/slim guy with dark wavy hair) who kindly offered to take our group picture when he saw us look around earned this place an extra star. | 23 stars |
A stable in St. Louis!!!! Pretzel wrap brats.....need I say more..........pretzel ends....JUST GO TRY EM, YOU WILL SEE!!! | 34 stars |
I am Southern California and am visiting Nashville for vacation. I would give this place zero stars but the staff was friendly enough. When you see 9 microwaves behind the counter that was a red flag. The rice and beans tasted like they came right out of a can. The food was not good. I could not believe that the place had as many folks eating there as they did. I make way better Mexican food at home. Taco Bell is miles better and I don't recommend that place either. Unless you are desperate or really stoned and have mad munchies, stay away. | 01 star |
We really like this place- great pizza, love the gyros and the chef salad is delicious! Weren't crazy about the wings though. Super fast delivery and always friendly when we call. This is now our go-to delivery spot. | 34 stars |
The "Trevor" is the best sandwich I've ever eaten! The "Blue Bronco" is also amazing. Can't imagine that anything on their menu is less than mind blowing. The service is wonderful! They seem to be having a lot of fun together and are ready to crack a joke with you and share their passion for their menu! Who knew sandwiches could be so uniquely delicious?! Find this place! You'll never regret it!!! | 45 stars |
Oh no no honey, what is you doin?
The first time I visited Laxmi's shortly after they opened the food was amazing despite the long wait for the food.
This time around I ordered the tikka masala with both paneer and vegetables and while I was told there would be cauliflower I just got a bunch of potatoes. Potatoes in tikka masala? Ok. The spice was there, but the flavor was not. There was no rich aroma. Just bland spicy food. Even the paneer had no flavor.
The service was again impeccably slow for being the only table in the restaurant.
Not good anymore. Won't return. | 12 stars |
After months and months of trying new nail salons- I actually gave up trying and just started to do my nails at home because I couldn't find any place that could tame my awful cuticles and do a clean gel application.
I am so happy I found this salon and Emily! Shop certainly has a family owned feel. You're not getting fancy decor here but let me tell you your nails will feel fancy after you leave! Emily cut my cuticles so perfectly and the flawless white gel application topped it off. I've found my nail place and could not be happier! | 45 stars |
Every time we eat here it's fabulous. It always provides wonderful quality food at a reasonable price. Chelsie always makes the most awesome drinks that are Strong and how you want them. The $4 Friday special Long Island is best deal in town .
Bottom line; if you want a great meal at a reasonable cost, I recommend to everyone that they come here | 45 stars |
Came in with a small group for dinner and it was okay as far as service, the waiter was on point and got us what we needed but when it came to the food, it was just eh.
I expected more I guess because I usually like Bahama Breeze's food. I shared some appetizers with my boyfriend. We got beef empanadas, jerk chicken wings, coconut shrimp and spinach dip with tortilla chips.
I was stoked to eat the coconut shrimp because it is my favorite thing on the menu.... it did not disappoint! It was the highlight of the meal!
When it came to the beef empanadas... they weren't great... the meat tasted strange..And they just weren't good, we ended up having a lot leftover because we didn't like them and weren't going to eat them... a waste of money I suppose.. oh well. On to the jerk chicken wings... they were decent, flavorful. And the spinach dip... the dip was tasty, nice flavor but the chips were hit or miss, some were fresh and some were stale, how does that even happen? Oh well... overall because of the shrimp, and the drinks, and service I rate it a 3 stars. | 23 stars |
Great service and my manicure last much longer than expected. We were visiting SB and the manager was very helpful for local recommendations for lunch and things to do. | 45 stars |
For years as a child, I heard of the Madden Turducken but was deprived because it was realistic to get it from NOLA to Iowa. Then as an adult, I have wanted this and had no excuse for the continued deprivation. Now thanks to Goldbelly and the interweb overloads of cerebral targeting. I was coerced to buy the infamous turducken. Highly offended at their ability to read my mind while searching for the perfect hosting turkey I succumbed. After all, I have wanted this forever and there is no way it could live up to the hype in my mind.
False: This was everything I could have wanted and more. Hats off to Gourmet Butcher Block and John Madden for making the world aware | 45 stars |
Amazing burger and Sausage sandwich! Good atmosphere and beer list. Manager was helpful and friendly we got there after it closed from 3-4pm but they let us eat anyways, will go again! | 45 stars |
Definitely a great group of guys. Extremely knowledgeable and great at what they do. I was having issues setting my personal laptop up with the my office servers. They came in and got me all set up with the office servers and printers, Something I could not have done on my own. I gave them a call and they were here almost immediately. I would for sure recommend to any body I know that needs any PC work. | 45 stars |
Blueprint, as I'm sure you already know, is super hip. While it's currently swarmed with Wash U students cramming for finals, it's usually a good spot to show off new ink and a fresh pair of Warby Parkers. All of that aside, the coffee is pretty good. I wouldn't go here if you're looking for a "bang for your buck" kind of coffee shop, nor would I go here for a caffeine fix. I would save Blueprint for a day date where you can pretend to know more about coffee than you actually do.
The menu is nearly impossible to read so if you get nervous, just order a pour over and point to one of the roasts. In spite of the extremely esoteric menu, the staff is very nice and accommodating; I would actually say the service and atmosphere are the saving graces for this otherwise ultra-hip, somewhat alienating Williamsburg-type cafe.
TLDR: Decent coffee, nice staff, somewhat pricey, come if you want to sit for a while and people watch | 23 stars |
Hubby and I visited Cafe Maspero for brunch one Wednesday morning after checking out of our hotel. It was close by so we decided to give it a try. The service was good, but the food was meh. Nothing really exciting about our dishes (we both had the 2 eggs with bacon). We also got a short stack, which I was disappointed by. We probably won't be back here again since there are so many other places in the city. | 12 stars |
Where else can you get yer ride cleaned to sparkling perfection while chilling in a waiting room with an adorable kitten AND playing Grand Theft Auto?? Life is good. | 45 stars |
Spent three nights at the hotel. I will say, it's one of the nicest hotels I've stayed at in quite awhile.
The living/kitchen is very nice and offers plates/bowls/glasses and utensils. There is a small dorm style fridge and a two burner stove.
The sitting area offers a very nice couch with a TV that swivels so that you can see it in either the living room or sleeping area.
Beds were incredibly comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and water pressure was great. And the hotel was so quiet!
Breakfast was a nice, hotel buffet.
They have a nice bar that doesn't offer food, but has some nice drink specials during the week.
The location is amazing! Close to everything! Shopping, the highway, restaurants and not too far from Nashville.
I'm looking forward to visiting, again! | 45 stars |
Makes IHOP look like a Michelin 4 star....
Awful...where do I begin? Food, atmosphere, service were all abysmal. The waffles are like frozen waffles cooked in a toaster. Eggs were mostly raw. Got the order wrong on the toast too (is no butter so difficult?). The place was freezing cold, and had all the charm of a truck stop bathroom. Oh and it was LOUD. Someone later told me the chain is known as Awful House. That is about right. Avoid. | 01 star |
THE friendliest oil change location I have ever visited! I'm taking the time to write this because they absolutely deserve recognition for their helpfulness and friendliness. They were very conscientious of my time. I truly appreciate businesses like this! | 45 stars |
I literally cried tears of joy. This place is heaven to this California girl's heart! The owner is helpful and responsive, clean bathrooms, excellent service. What's not to love? | 45 stars |
Not recommended for business travelers. I prepaid for my 10 day reservation trying to save my company some money, but when my work scheduled changed and I only needed the car half as long, Avis would not refund the unused days, even when I notified them in advance.
Even worse, at the airport when I was picking up my car they wouldn't help me at the desk and had me call the 1-800 number to speak to a customer service agent there about my reservation... only to get told they wouldn't refund me for the unused days.
Very poor customer service from Avis. My company has hundreds of employees who book Avis cars for travel, but I'll be recommending that we find a different company to use for our car rental needs. | 01 star |
We order from this restaurant all the time. Their health rating is great, delivery is early or right on time, but most importantly, their food is consistently wonderful. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed! | 45 stars |
Lovely atmosphere. I wish the bar section was a little bigger because when it gets crowded, there's no where to stand without being in someone's way.
Walla walla suicide rings are an excellent spicy snack/apptizer to accompany a selection from their awesome offering of beers. The burger was good. I've gotten it twice and the buger patty itself is very tasty, but I wish they had some more interesting topping options; royal tavern still wins the best burger contest for me. And the fries were average.
I reccomend the ace pear cider for a refreshing, sweet, alternative to beer. | 34 stars |
Went out on all day trip thought a lot of time was wasted and not a lot of fishing . It was disappointing for myself and my grandson didn't know if it was a new captain but we wound stop for a few minutes and he started to leave again . Just disappointed | 01 star |
"We cater to cowards" on the window pretty much pushed me to see if my insurance covered this place. Luckily, it did, so my husband made an appointment. The day of his first appointment, he had to work til 6 AM (he was supposed to get out at 2) and the receptionist kindly changed the appointment time without a hassle!
He finally went in, and discovered that he needed a lot of work done. An almost shameful amount, actually. The staff worked with him to meet all his financial/ timing needs, so he could take off time at work to recover from the various procedures. They even printed up a synopsis for how much everything would cost PLUS gave him free teeth whitening!
My only complaints are the lack of an emergency contact number (he had an issue that was a little scary on a Sunday), and the completely unsupervised children running amok in the reception area. I was waiting for the hubs to get done, while this little girl was throwing things around. I actually said something to a nurse, as I was afraid to be beaned with the set of car keys she was launching in my direction. Apparently, according to the nurse, there are certain days where the kid's dentist isn't there. It's just a preference for me to not have to worry about other people's children.
Bottom line: great staff, great prices and good communication, just make sure you know who to contact if you have an emergency. I have recommended this place to many friends already! | 34 stars |
I'm glad I finally stopped, after driving past for years, at the hearth and grill shop. Because they carry big green eggs and accessories, I was able to get my father some great accessories and charcoal for his egg. They also sell John Henry's spices which are hard to find around town. The sales people I encountered were helpful and aided greatly in my decision making.
AND I will see them again soon to get my fireplace back in working order. | 45 stars |
Our granddaughters picked out this restaurant. The menu did not impress me . The interior is fun with lots of games. We had fried pickles, wings and burgers. Hands Down best burgers ever. Easy to customize | 45 stars |
I absolutely love this place! If you don't mind getting all relaxed right next to strangers for $25/hour then this is your spot. They provide full body massage while you're fully clothed in those leather reclining chairs. Then, they will absolutely treat your tired feet with Chinese acupressure and I swear I fell asleep while getting treated. | 45 stars |
They are ok, at best. They are basically the only all-vegan restaurant in town so I go, but rarely and here's why: the food is unimaginative and expensive. I keep hoping they will take a queue from Green in Phoenix and expand their menu beyond the typical veg burger, pasta, hummus line-up. The desserts and drinks are well-loved by many but the main courses include a lot of processed, imitation meat and cheese. The prices are too high for many people who aren't already dedicated to eating vegan. The ambience strikes me as "well-to-do-hippy" which I think turns off many of the millenials in the area as well as those who might try eating vegan for the first time. My last meal there was a breakfast of scrambled tofu which had so much turmeric sifted on that it actually had a powdery texture....blech. What person will eat that and come away thinking, "Hey, this vegan food isn't so bad afterall"? I really want to like this place but I go out of my way to keep my non-vegan friends from going here lest they think this is what vegan food and restaurants are like. Instead I send my friends to the Post Punk Kitchen website and have them cook at home. Sad, I know but I just can't support this place. | 23 stars |
Wow, this place was delightful, it is small and cozy (one room with like 7 tables), this place is family owned by people from Peru. I went in never having Peruvian food before, and the very friendly waitress explained the menu and selection for us. The food is very good, they use true spices from Peru. I had the paella, and it was so well seasoned and loaded with seafood. My girlfriend had the ceviche which she throughly enjoyed. Give this place a try for something new and different on Freret, 10/10! | 45 stars |
Main line sushi is a hit or miss proposition. Some places start out ok, but they get worse and don't last a year for whatever reason. Sushi Land has been here for years, so they must be doing something right. I'm sure the location helps being across the street from a small movie theater.
We went on a Friday and it was quite busy. There's no waiting area, so we hung outside for about 15 minutes. This BYOB doesn't take reservations on Fridays, so keep that in mind. The sushi is good and the prices are reasonable for the area. They don't serve sashimi as cold as a lot of restaurants, but I'm told this way in more traditional (eh, I still like it colder). If you get an appetizer, go for the dumplings. They are tasty and very delicate.
The staff is very nice. They were in good spirits even though it was packed and everything still came out pretty fast. | 34 stars |
Best hotel I've stayed in New Orleans! The location is great, the front desk people were always SUPER helpful, and our hotel room was amazing. Comfortable bed, great view, awesome bathroom. Every time I called they would answer the phone rather quickly and I have nothing but good things to say about the staff. Bought the stay through Groupon but will definitely be coming back. We were sad to leave our hotel room!
Only cons I can think of are the hotel parking which is about two blocks from the hotel, and the bed sheets didn't breath too well, but we turned up the a/c and the problem was solved. | 45 stars |
We have been here twice since it opened. It is a stellar view of the city. Weekend 7/10/16 we brought a family member visiting from Florida. She had not been to Philly in years and loved it. I have to comment on the extremely friendly and professional people who work here. It is so refreshing to go out in the world and meet PLEASANT, helpful, happy people. They are doing a great job. This is a neat thing to do even if you are from the area and are familiar with the city. It is unique. | 45 stars |
One of the best froyo places I've been to! The flavors are always changing (approx. every 2 weeks), and they actually have a wide variety of flavors. The toppings are always fresh, we were even offered fresh cut cheesecake once to put on our froyo. The same employee (Kathy) has been there every time we've went, and she is phenomenal! A very personable, welcoming, friendly employee. There are two very popular froyo places nearby (Toppers and Menchies) and they don't compare to Lily Pads in my opinion. It's a hidden gem in a tiny strip mall, definitely worth finding! | 45 stars |
So good! My boyfriend knows how into trying new places I am and even though he is not big on my explorations (he has lived in NOLA all his life I on the other hand have only been here every other weekend for 6 months)... He brought me here today and boy was that a home run!! I tried 6 items for $9.99. I LOVE places that have specials like this so I can try all kinds of different things without breaking the bank! I loved all 6 of them but the chocolate cake/pudding thing was omg delish! I look forward to trying out 6 more next time!! Oh and the cookies were really really great also! Oatmeal raisin was my fav cookie. | 45 stars |
I'm from Michigan and I've eaten at a lot of Jet's and they have never messed up my order but this place does something wrong every time. Either they don't give me the pizza I want or they don't add the right crust or the right dressing for a salad. Every time they offer me something for messing up and that's great but I just wish for once they would just get my order right because I don't ask for much. I just won't be eating here for awhile. | 23 stars |
I truly do not understand the poor reviews of Boomtown NV. I just stayed there on 08-08-20 and it was great. From check in to check out the staff were nice, easy going and really helpful. My room was super clean and well appointed. I enjoy craps and the dealers were really good and made sure to remind me of my bets.
With the virus there are some parts that are not available. Masks are required. They are definitely making sure that we arrive healthy and leave healthy...I sincerely applaud them for that.
Boomtown is not trying to compete with the major hotel/casinos. It is what it is and I think what it is is terrific. I will definitely be going back. | 45 stars |
Enjoyed a nice weeknight dinner here! Had the fried green tomatoes for an appetizer and steak frites for dinner. Steak was maybe a little overcooked, but nothing to complain about. Wine selection was good and very reasonable! Loved the atmosphere and service was excellent! | 34 stars |
We got to Cafe Lift on Sunday at 11, and were told there was a 45 minute wait for 4 people. It ended up being about 35 minutes, but I'll never understand why places like this don't take reservations -- I'd be much more likely to return if they did.
Interior is cute but cramped, with tables pushed tight together and difficult to navigate around. Our group ordered 4 dirty chai tea lattes to start, and were disappointed when our waiter returned and said they'd run out of chai... huh? We switched to cappuccinos, which were tasty but small. For food, we did two huevos rancheros, a breakfast burrito, and a brunch burger. A weird quirk of Cafe Lift is they don't let you alter specials at all, so when my friend wanted to skip the fried egg on her brunch burger, she couldn't. We also overhead someone nearby being told they couldn't get one of the specials without onions... why? Seems silly to refuse such minor changes to specials, especially when people are asking to remove something (not add or substitute). The huevos rancheros were excellent -- great flavors and pretty plating. The breakfast potatoes came with a spicy mayo-based sauce that was really good. Gluten free options on the menu are few and far between though.
Our waiter was friendly but absent. Our water glasses sat empty for most of the meal, and we had to flag him down to initiate conversation any time we wanted something. All in all, I was impressed with Cafe Lift's food, but underwhelmed by the overall dining experience, and definitely won't be rushing back. | 23 stars |
Best Creole Soul Food Restaurant Ever!!!!!! BEAUTIFUL atmosphere and great music. The food is nicely prepared. | 45 stars |
Food is good and service is extremely helpful. Only improvement would be controlling the lunch time lines. | 34 stars |
Extremely Celiac friendly (and any other food allergies)! The entire staff practically came out to talk to me to let me know they can accommodate any of the pastas to be gluten free. They are a scratch kitchen. I got the chicken Parmesan with the gluten free noodles and it was delicious! Highly recommend, especially for anyone with food allergies. | 45 stars |
I agree with other reviews which point out the Pattaya Grill does not pretend to be fine dining. Nonetheless, I've eaten there about 4 times and the food has never disappointed. The portions are sizeable without being overwhelming. I always enjoy the soups whether I order Tom Yum or a coconut soup. Also, their mixed drinks are delicious and strong. My favorite is definitely the Pink Ginger Lemonade which is made with ginger vodka made on premises. Really yummy.
After eating there last night, the only thing I have to say about the service is that we ordered drinks, appetizers and a main course and the drinks didn't come until after the main course came. Very annoying. Aside from this, the service was so non-existent that I have nothing more to say.
We tip at 20% almost everytime we eat out, but since there was hardly any service last night, there was hardly any tip. | 23 stars |
I must say, I was pleased with this place on so many different aspects. Taste was based on a Vegetarian, an Omnivore and a 7 month old. As with any American-Chinese the food greasy and salty and hit all the right spots. :)
We just moved to Clearwater, so we were looking for a new Chinese "home." Since I'm Vegetarian, finding Chinese that's yummy can be a bit of a challenge, of course finding typical American-Chinese that's yummy can be a bit of a challenge, completely.
So, first thing's first. This place is 2 blocks from my house, so we decided to try it. I searched and searched for a menu online. Nothing.
I must admit, that typically when I can't find a menu online, I try elsewhere. But google had pretty good reviews for this place, and it's 2 blocks from my house... so I called to see if they would fax a menu.
I got a very friendly young lady that spoke perfect English. She told me she would try to send it to me, that their fax machine wasn't always working properly. So, I heard the fax coming through, and my fax machine jammed. I struggled with it, and it declined the transmission.
A few minutes later, she called to let me know that she sent the fax through but that she got an error. I was pleasantly surprised by the considerate act of calling me to let me know.
Since I couldn't get a fax, I asked what type of Tofu dishes they had on the menu, and since there was only one she let me speak with someone else that informed me they could make anything tofu for me that I wanted. Not sure of the type of tofu, I decided to give their only Tofu menu item a try - Homestyle Tofu which was basically a Buddha Delight - and it was delicious!
The tofu was standard tofu, sliced and lightly fried. It soaked up the sauce perfectly, and was served with carrots, broccoli, onions and celery in a light brown sauce.
My husband ordered General Tso's Chicken, which is his favorite and his test of any new place. If it doesn't have good General Tso's, it might as well not exist.
He said the General Tso's Chicken was perfectly crispy, had a kick without being too hot, and was very flavorful. He also enjoyed their Crab Rangoon.
The 7 month old ate the heck out of the crab rangoon insides as well as the tofu. He actually got angry when I stopped handing him tofu. I'm raising such a little hippie, Ghandi would be proud.
Oh, ok so I kinda tasted the crab rangoon too. Ghandi wouldn't be so proud.
It was good, by the way. | 34 stars |
We got the prosciutto pizza and the short rib pizza. Oh my gosh. This will forever be our pizza place in our new town. Out of this world.We also got the pear and goat salad which was good. | 45 stars |
I don't know how everyone raves about this place. I got there at 7 am after a nine hour flight and they made me pay a $35 "early check-in" fee. I know it's in the rules (because I checked the website later), but come on. If I had stayed at another hotel, they would have been happy to accommodate me for free. And $35 for a nice room might have been okay ... but I certainly didn't get a nice room. I got a broom closet (room 505 if I remember correctly). It made me think of a hotel room in Tokyo except much less modern. My TV wasn't in front of the bed because there was no space. My toilet was straight from some 70's high school stall.
Now I need to go yell at whoever booked that hotel for me ... | 01 star |
We wanted to eat here last week. When we walked in the hostess (I think her name was Tammy) was very flustered and didn't even look at us when we walked in. We asked for a booth and we were rudely informed that a waitress was getting mad at her for not sitting people in her section and said she had no other choice. She didn't apologize or even give us a choice to wait for a booth. After we were give our table (not booth) we got up and left. Very poor service. | 12 stars |
I was really looking forward to eating at i Ai. I have a friend who raves about how authentic it is, so I was very excited.
Now, to be fair, it wasn't bad. I will give it another shot, but I will have to try different items because what I had was nothing special.
I tried the crab rangoon, something I try at every asian restaurant I go to that serves it. i Ai's version was not much better than what I can get from a Chinese take-out restaurant at 2am. There was mostly cream cheese inside, and the wrappers were somewhat greasy. They were served with a standard (possibly prepackaged) "thai" chili sauce. Meh.
We also ordered a volcano roll, another favorite of mine that I order everywhere. i Ai has the "Special Volcano," so I went with it, along with the spicy tuna roll. Both were disappointing. The spicy tuna was standard, but the volcano had a weird taste to it and just didn't seem fresh.
I will give them some credit though. The decor is understated, yes, but that gives it charm for me. The server was polite and service was prompt. I also picked very "Americanized" rolls, and that was my fault.
As I said, I would give this place another shot and try some different things. | 23 stars |
Longish review: Living over on the west side where many of us think of ourselves as orphans, we have very few choices when it comes to dining out or ordering in. (orphans meaning, no independent bakeries, coffee shops, fine dining, TJ, bagel bakery, etc, ALWAYS DRIVING to get what we want/need) So needed to order some pizza (to be delivered) and I read the negative reviews about the delivery from 4th avenue Magpies and decided to play it "safe" and order from Bianchi's which is fairly close by. I read the reviews and had some reservations but wanted to make sure we'd get the delivery. I went in to order and spoke to the actual owner and asked him if he knew about Yelp. He did not. I very kindly told him about some of the reviews I had read and he got pretty defensive at first but I think that, when he realized I was trying to help him, he softened his voice and posture and we had a nice conversation. So, the pizzas were delivered exactly on time which was great. Over dinner we discussed the pizzas (one veggie and one with sausage, spinach and mushrooms) and the "grades" ranged from 'B' to 'A-'.
The biggest gripe was with the crust which is very bland, and not at all crunchy around the edges. We agreed that the ingredients were fresh, the sausage was plentiful and tasty and we were satisfied overall.
I hope that the owner does take the time to read the reviews b/ no restaurant is perfect and there are always improvements to be made.
Meanwhile, i I'm still on the look out for better pizza to have delivered out here in the boony's boony.
P.S. I do want to put in a plug for the calzone at Bianchi's-I always love it,my choice of sausage and ricotta-big enough for two. | 23 stars |
I've eaten at DD twice. Food tastes ok. Food is WAY overpriced !!! About ten percent food cost..... That is unacceptable !!! Why so greedy ? | 12 stars |
The only good thing was the massages and food. The customer service was ridiculous, everything was so slow and not on time. The service was awful for how much we spent on this weekend. The only staff that was friendly were the ones giving pedicures and massages even though the pedicures are not worth it. Walked out not satisfied with this spa at all. | 01 star |
I took my cooling off period from the visit last Sunday but I'm still pissed. Early Sunday Morning. Not many people there !! Won't suggest going here if you can't stop somewhere else when you leave to get the breakfast you paid for here !! McDonald's gives you more for less !! This place is very expensive for the very skimpy portion sizes they put on those square plates It's eggs and potatoes with lots of other weird offerings they try to push you into. The potatoes are small cubes half burnt , for my 15.00 there were 13 cubes half of which were burnt , next was the egg , yes less than one egg was on that square plate pushed around to try and make it look bigger for the less than child portion that it was , the 3 bacon strips were there but cold and they toss one thick slice of toast on top to make a hill outta the whole thing. The iced tea showed up, the wait lady never came back except to drop off the bill without even a grunt. Whole experience sucked. Yours prolly will too !! Should have taken a picture, won't be a repeat visit !! | 01 star |
This place is on our do it again list. Jack and Jameson's is in Franklin Tennessee. It's not real big,bar on one end,stage on the other and tables in the middle. There's a large patio outside.
Our server was Cindy she was wonderful.
She told us all about the place. They have a band on the weekend. And then talked about the food. She told us her favorite. So we picked the Brisket naked no bun,and it came with two sides so Mac and Cheese and Asparagus. When it came out there was this pile of Brisket it was so tended and juicy and the flavor was amazing. It came with a side of there sauce but you didn't need it. The MAC and Cheese was in a little jar it was creamy and was topped with real parmesan cheese. And the Asparagus was firm but tender it was some of the best I've ever had. I even got a few tips on how to make mine better at home.
The only thing that would have made it better is that if I could have put it in my pocket and brought it home with me. Need less to say it was great. And our next trip to Nashville Jack and Jameson will be on our list of favorite. | 45 stars |
Listen guys, you don't have to read a long review; I'll sum it up here:
This place is fucking legit.
Disclaimer: They cook EVERY DISH to order, meaning it's not fast food. Order your food - be it takeout or dine in - and chill. Talk with your date. Read a book. Knit a sweater. I don't care. Just understand that it isn't lightening-fast service, and that's actually what makes this place great. Enjoy, homies | 45 stars |
Huge Cuban sandwiches, delicious black beans and rice. Yum yum. I've been there twice and can't believe it took me so long to visit this place which is less than 2 miles from where I live. They always provide excellent customer service and the prices are ridiculously reasonable. The sandwiches are so large, it took me 2 days to finish. During my last visit I ordered a bowl with chicken, with lettuce, tomatoes, black beans and pico de gallo in a nice crispy shell. Also, the guacamole is nice and fresh. Excellent place to pickup a sammy before heading to the beach! | 45 stars |
I have to say it's nice to know that even in a proper establishment the waiter will bring over complimentary shots (before noon). Perhaps it was Lundi Gras, but whateves....
I like how the menu comes with all of the courses included as each is prepared and served fantastically. I don't recall what they were serving that day, but it was delicious.
The service is good but almost borderline over-bearing. I don't need my water glass filled after each time I take a sip! thanks (not)
We sat in this fun little back house (behind the courtyard) and the decor definitely screamed garden district. I would treat yourself here at least one time....
P.S. It's always fun to stumble around the graveyard across the street when a little tipsy | 34 stars |
This is the not only the best baseball park, it is also the best summer place to hang out in Indy for anyone of any age! The city view is great and on many Weekend game nights they have fireworks!
For company events- the picnic areas are great
For a group of fun-loving friends or a small party- the cove has great service and table seating
For families and other baseball lovers, there is not a bad seat in this place
If you have little ones, want to bring a cooler or like sitting in the grass the outfield is the way to go (check the fine print regarding coolers as rules are always changing)
This is also walkable from anywhere in downtown Indy, so plan an evening with dinner or drinks afterwards. You will have the best summer night ever! | 45 stars |
The Next Act is one of my top spots to eat when I'm down by Whyte Ave. I've been here quite a few times but kept putting my review off for one reason or another.
The bar selection here is pretty good, but I always stick to one particular cider here since this is the only place I can seem to find it. They always have a good selection of bottles and draught so there is something for everyone.
The entrees are delicious. I tend to stick with the Mac and Cheese, but I've seen some pretty awesome burgers and sandwiches come out of here. They all look and smell heavenly, so I can definitely understand why they've won so many awards.
The reason I can only give three stars is due to a couple factors. First, the staff here is hit or miss. I don't know if it's because there are so many people here at any given time or if they are friendlier to people who come in more regularly, but sometimes they aren't always the most attentive. We've had to wait for more than 20th minutes just to order our drinks. Secondly, the appetizers here are kind of disappointing. I probably wouldn't keep ordering them as they seem to lack much flavour.
The Next Act is one of those places you either love or you hate, and overall I still love this place. | 23 stars |
At first appearance you have no idea what you have gotten yourself into, the building is barely held together and a bacon wrapped hot dog sounds very strange. However the first taste of a Sonoran Hot Dog makes you realize your life will never be the same. Although I've never had anything else (I'm addicted sorry) I know some people were willing to drive hours for the giant burros. | 34 stars |
Firstly, I don't even wanna disrespect this store the way i'm about too, but if i go there again I may leave with cuffs. The manager WITH THE PURPLE HAIR!!!!! attitude is gonna get her fired. she got mad cause we asked for SAUCE, that we didn't get in the first place. THEN had to ask for the nacho cheese cups i paid for that wasn't in there!! like ?? THEN when we asked she said " COME ON MAN!!!! " like girl!? WE STILL LEFT WITHOUT TACOS!!! i paid for a taco she still forgot to give i called ten times, NO ANSWER. it's okay though i promise , just wait.. | 01 star |
Ummmm no. I really don't ask for too much in a hotel room. A working toilet for instance. Five minutes after getting to my room a maintenance man barged in because he was scheduled to fix the broken curtain. I don't care about the curtain that was falling down, but the toilet was clogged so bad it was way more than a 'the last guest just took a massive dump before they left' issue. He was in there ten minutes still attempting to fix this before I just went to ask for a new room. The front desk clerk was rude when I said I wanted a different room. It's not my fault they gave me this room that need repairs. Customer service skills? So she gives me a different room with my window view now being a cement wall. The carpet was gross and the shower curtain was covered in mold. The whole room was old and beat up looking. When I booked this room I was led to believe it had a fridge, microwave, and mini bar. It has none of those. Parking costs $16 per day in the smallest, scariest parking garage I've ever seen in my life. It is located on Gravier St so you need to walk around the corner to get to the hotel. It also only has a sign that says it is parking for the Hilton Garden Inn. The only good thing about this place is the location. It is in walking distance of Bourbon Street and the French Market. But there are plenty of other hotels around. Unfortunately, I left an expensive iPhone case and charger in my room and they actually stole it! I know for a fact I left it there, but housekeeping refused to answer my calls or respond to my voice mail. I finally get a hold of the front desk days later after they continually ignored my calls and I called from a different phone number and they tell me nothing was found in my room and they are not responsible! Do not stay here. | 01 star |
So dirty!!!! Bathrooms were DISGUSTING! Our table was so dirty and wobbly that we moved and the other one was just the same! Service was good from Kaykay but other than that, it was a garbage experience. Do not go here! | 01 star |
Crispy polenta, kale salad, rigatoni, bee sting. Still an awesome place. Good server, great food, I'm buzzed but this place isn't nearly as loud as it could be on a Friday night.
Everything came out quickly and perfectly done. | 45 stars |
Perfect coffee house. Great atmosphere, excellent baked goods. Good books on the shelves, nice light, quiet. Intimate places to talk. Excellent coffee | 45 stars |
I tried to have dinner with my wife here tonight, but a giant cockroach flew into her twice and then ran across the floor under our table. I tried to tell a waitress and she said "it's not a roach, it's a palmetto bug". Spoiler Alert: it's the same thing. She seemed not to care. She mentioned it to another staff member, he said "it's New Orleans". We left without getting our food. Total disaster. Really spoiled an otherwise nice evening in New Orleans. | 01 star |
People can have different standards for sushi. I am from California, so you might say I have pretty high standards, but being that Florida is a seafood state, I expected better quality fish.
This place has Korean owners, not a good or bad thing since I have been to tons of great Korean sushi places. Service was good here, there was 2 serveres and 3 sushi chefs behind the bar. I do not know how many kitchen staff they had. The place was not full, but not empty either, and based on the amount of people, the wait was moderate.
My litmus test for all sushi places is regular sushi and sashimi. My rule for sushi is, if the simple things are good, everything else on the menu will be good. I ordered the Sashimi + Sushi lunch combo. It came with 9 pieces of sashimi (tuna, salmon, ono) and 3 pieces of sushi (tuna, salmon, cooked shrimp). The tuna was falling apart and fishy. It didn't help that they tried to cut shallow lines on one side. The cuts were not clean, which made the presentation worse. I am pretty sure the tuna is not fresh here. The salmon on the other hand was pretty good. The cut, especially on the sushi was nice and the meat was not slimy (a sign of old salmon). As for the Ono, it had potential to be good. The cuts were nice and uniform and came topped with roe and spring onions. Unfortunately, the middle was frozen.
I paid about $18 including tip, which is not a great price, but average even in California.
All in all, a pretty good experience, but I will be trying the different sushi places in the area to make a benchmark on sushi in Florida. | 23 stars |
My husband and I have a tradition that we go to their dining for our anniversary for some years. For the first few years, we enjoyed their food and the upscale atmosphere very much. They used to bring us a special surprise plate to celebrate our special day (some chocolates and fruits without charge). However, we did not have the same experience when we went back this summer. My husband orders a stake, and I ordered a fish for our entree, but we found them to be salty, and the chef failed to cook the stake properly. They used to serve dishes that were a little more creative and had richer flavor. We were sad to end our anniversary tradition but will go to somewhere else for our future. | 12 stars |
Sad that Dalia has left Tei Salon. I heard she had left and called the salon to see if a technician was hired to replace her, but no one called me back. I had to search far and wide to find Dalia's new location and glad that I did. Tei lost my business by losing Dalia. | 01 star |
This place has phenomenal food. Their tacos on Wednesdays are better than most taco trucks in the area- & their burgers are one of the best in town. Absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is fun and a little rambunctious, so If you're looking for quiet dining this is probably not the best choice... But If you're looking for a place with remarkable food and drinks, check out Brewers Cabinet! | 45 stars |
This is quite frankly one of my favorite coffee places that I have found in Indy to read and work at. It's usually never busy and having a parking lot is a huge plus.
So far, I've tried their chocolate latte, butterscotch latte, and pistachio latte. All of which have been fantastic! My only gripe, is that they only have a few outlets (a few awkwardly placed against the back wall and a few under the high-top tables).
Overall, I would happily recommend Provider to anyone! | 45 stars |
I went to order take out and was refused service. I was told that you have to order by 12:30 even though there was nothing on the website stating that there was a time limit for ordering food. I could understand if they closed between lunch and dinner but according to their website they do not.
I then asked if I could see a menu so I would know what I wanted to order in the future within their "time limit" and they refused to let me see one. I was told I had to go online to view a menu. When I went online I discovered that there is not even a full menu online to view.
HORRIBLE customer service. | 01 star |
It's nice to see something a little more upscale in jenkintown. Our meal was decent but nothing that jumped out at me as being amazing and the price was a little much. I had a corn pudding appetizer which was tasty but kind of runny. My pasta of duck prosciutto was very unseasoned. The pasta itself was definitely fresh made so that was a plus. My duck entree was seasoned beautifully but I must say that the dish it came in made it hard to cut. My husbands fluke entree was really salty. I think that the concept is great and Compared to a few of the other choices to eat in jenkintown, they will continue to do well. | 23 stars |
Ok, to be fair I am used to Regina's pizza in Boston & Pepe's pizza in New Haven and Boston.
Tried Marcos for the second time and for two times mediocre at best. In fact after trying several local pizzerias, fair is the best I can find. In my home town there are two or three good to excellent pizzerias.
There is a good pizza place in St. Pete though.
Feel pretty much the same about local Chinese food. Any Chinese restaurant that serves sweet & sour sauce from plastic packets should be closed. | 12 stars |
Went in last night. Have always enjoyed the food. My girlfriend and I walked in. There was one person behind the counter. Completely ignored us and just sat there on his phone. We waited for several minutes and he continued to ignore us. We then left the restaurant. Very discouraging to see. | 01 star |
AMAZING!! Delicious food (crispy tots and outstanding onion rings!!). Came with three kids and the food o the kids menus was just as good!! Pork nachos were stacked just like we always wished they were and I don't want to leave. For all you IPA drinkers, the mad beach IPA IS WONDERFUL! Thank you Mad Beach Craft Brewery!! | 45 stars |
Heritage was referred to us by a friend. We had been without air over the hottest weekend of the summer. We were concerned that our old unit would have to be replaced -- $3-$5K we did not look forward to spending. The techs were able to repair the unit and get us cool for under $300. So nice to know they performed the service well, had integrity and didn't simply say "yep, replace the unit!" We are so appreciative! | 45 stars |
I used to go there often when it was Chancey's. This place is not as good. Small portions and cost more also. I'm not going back often, if at all. | 12 stars |
Excellent Mocha Coffee... but $5? I'd like it better if the prices were displayed. Nice atmosphere though. | 23 stars |
Ate there for the first time tonight, must say all the food was on point!!! Will return soon.
I had the catfish and shrimp | 45 stars |
It's easy. You get what you pay for. Reno is full of fly-by-night flash art type places, and even a few terrible shops that have inexplicably lasted for years. Aces is not the cheapest, or even the friendliest, but they are the best.
Most of my good work has been done by Kevin at Aces, and I continue to travel 400+ miles just to get work done by him. That should speak volumes in itself.
The only complaint that typically arises around Aces has nothing to do with the quality of their work. Ive heard people say that the crew can be intimidating or unfriendly. I don't think that's fair, though. They are the best at what they do, they are always plenty busy, and they may not have tolerance for every drunk yahoo that walks in wanting a tinkerbell tramp-stamp or some sweet tribal work with a skull in the middle for good measure. You can imagine how tedious that might be.
Its a bunch of motorcycle riding tattooed dudes sitting in a shop listening to loud rock and roll, so in that sense, I suppose it could be intimidating, but they are all genuinely nice dudes.
You want custom, high-quality tattoos...this is the spot. | 45 stars |
4 for the food 1 for the "Waitress". Waited at counter to order, when my turn came was told rudely, it's waitress service sit down. Few minutes later same girl came over took order. No eye contact. I asked if the pastrami was hot cause the menu didn't say so. She said if you order that way. Detected a little attitude when she said that. Like why don't I know her menu. Got served. At one point waitress literally went to every other table and asked how they were doing. Sat 15 minutes waiting for my check being ignored every time the waitress went by. She was complaining about how busy she was. I finally noticed a lady get up from table to pay and she didn't have a check either, so apparently the waitress service stopped once your food was put out. I mentioned to the other person that it would have been nice to know that I didn't need to wait for the check and she ignored my comment. The pastrami was good but I expect better service and communication with the people serving, so I won't be back. | 23 stars |
The room smelled like mildew, bathroom was dirty, toilet seat broken and sink would clog every time water was turned on. The cleaning or maintenance crew employees have no consideration for the guests staying at hotel. They are screaming at each other from across the hall at 6 am. They continue to walk back and forth speaking loudly. There are shady looking people just hanging out drinking everywhere. Just an unpleasant experience and environment. | 01 star |
Rude and nasty on the phone. Customer service really is not this company's forte. | 01 star |
Cannot emphasize this enough, if you need a home inspector, radon testing, etc., go to ValueGuard, and better yet, make sure you get MIKE KELLEY as your home inspector. He was incredibly thorough and our family couldn't say enough about how meticulous he was during our home inspection. This was not our first experience with home inspections and Mike's attention to detail was unparalleled to anything we've ever seen. Though we were told the home inspection would take 2 to 2.5 hours, Mike took 4 hours and walked us through everything with impeccable detail. This was the second time we've used ValueGuard having had a great experience with them the first time, and we will be sure to go back to them ASAP next time we purchase a home. | 45 stars |
6 month ago, when I couldn't get into see my regular colorist at Adolf Biecker as quickly as I needed, I found Bad Hair Day searching on Yelp. I booked an appointment with Kim and loved the color and highlights she did for me. She changed up my base color to one that better matched my skin and natural hair coloring but still provided the warmer tone that I desired as well as adding beautiful highlights. I also love that I have always been able to get in for an appointment the same day or next day when I call. Kim has also helped me grow out a tricky short hair cut that I can't wait to get rid of by trimming just the right amount of hair in just the right places. I am impressed with all the high-tech hair services they offer although I haven't tried any yet. The stylists there seem to be on top of all the latest and greatest techniques. I highly recommend Kim at Bad Hair Day. | 45 stars |
We were on vacation and this place came highly recommended! First off let me say they have amazing margaritas and this girl loves her some Rita's! They are affordable and strong so be aware!!
This place is small with very little indoor seating but they do have some outdoor seating and a small patio and outside bar as well. Be prepared to wait! But while you are waiting you can start drinking !! Lol. The food was great especially the salsa and the vibe is hopping! Give them a try! | 45 stars |
Disgusting! Nice and clean business but the food isn't its finest. Mac and cheese wasn't cheesy at all. Just pasta. The cheese on top was inedible because it was hard. The corn was very tasty. The fish was cooked well but tasted like shrimp or something. Maybe the grease | 12 stars |
This place sucks. The worker was not helpful with telling me about the spray tan and she didnt even tell me how to use it properly. The lady there should have told me how dark each color makes you. I chose the lightest color (because i am really pale) and it literally gave me no color. The only color to show up is on my fingers, and they look orange!!! I will never go to this place again. | 01 star |
Horrible customer service policy. I needed to speak directly to someone at the terminal in Tampa, FL and I was told that is was UPS policy not to give out that information. That all calls had to be handled through the 800 customer service number. The person at that number could not assist me because he was reading the same information that I was able to read online my self. I knew that information was incorrect. UPS is an example of a company that has gotten so big that they have forgotten what customer service is all about. I will recommend that my company refrain from using them for small package delivery. We ship a lot of packages on a daily basis many of which are UPS and if I can not speak to someone at the location where the package is this is not helpful to me in resolving issues. | 01 star |
