After repeatedly purchasing bottled water from the grocery stores and then running low a week later, I decide to purchase a water dispenser. I'm lucky to have this particular location nearby. Every single employee I've encountered here is super helpful and friendly. I come in every 3 weeks to fill up three 5 gallon jugs and the employees never fail to assist me to the car. It doesn't matter if they're slow or busy at the time. These guys take care of their customers! I rarely pass on the chance to take a fruit parfait with me as well. I like the convenience and they dress up that fruit just right! Yum!

We've always loved their pizza, in fact it's our favorite in the area. They usually take an exceptionally long time to deliver but this evening they not only took an hour and a half to deliver our ONE pizza and salad, the driver called to tell us that he had delivered our pizza to the wrong address. No apologetic phone call from the manager because he was \""making\"" another pizza for us. We weren't offered a discount or anything for their screw up, to top it all off, the lettuce in our salad was wilted and our pizza was a soggy mess.

I had heard amazing things about Bice from my boyfriend, whose uncle frequents the restaurant, so we decided to try it out as a belated Valentine's day meal. \n\nThe inside of the restaurant seems a bit small, but that only adds to the intimacy of the place. The tables were well spaced so it wasn't crowded.\n\nTHE FOOD: We started off with the \""Fried crab cake, lime and black pepper mayo, grilled corn, cucumber and coriander salsa\"" ($17). I don't normally eat seafood, let alone any kind of shellfish, but this was AMAZING. The mayo was crazy good...you know those Miss Vickie's Lime and Cracked Black Pepper chips? It tasted like that. Only in MAYO FORM!\n\nFor the main course, the boyfriend ordered the \n\""Rigatoncini, Italian sausage, tomatoes, smoked caciocavallo and bufal\"" ($24) whereas I had the \""Pappardelle \""ros\u00e9\"" with mozzarella di bufala and fresh basil\"" ($24). The pappardelle was cheesey, but not too cheesey, and in my opinion, was better than the rigatoncini, which was good as well. \n\nThe only reason why Bice doesn't warrant 5 stars is because the wait staff is made up of young boys, who are either overly eager, clearing our dishes and cutlery as soon as we had put it down, or super forgetful. But other than that, everything was memorable.

Walking past this location on pretty much any given morning, it's apparent that this is a Las Vegas favorite. The packed parking lot and surrounding curb, a taxi dropping off a fare, cop cars, and the out-of-state plated cars remind me why this modest-looking joint is my choice breakfast locale.\n\nThe great: The food. It's that simple. My favorite single item is their french toast. 4 wedges and I'm in heaven (and full). I also enjoy their meatloaf and after a night of drinking, the (huge!) breakfast burrito is quite satisfying. The prices are reasonable too, and you generally get a lot of food for the money. \n\nThe not-so-great: I hate to say it, but the service is not as consistent as I'd like. Late night the servers are always super-attentive, but during the day is another story. It seems like it has little to do with how busy they are, as I've gone on a weekday mid-afternoon and the place is maybe 1/4 full and the service was worse than a visit on a bustling Sunday morning. \n\nStill, there's a reason why people from all walks of life come in, it's quite the breakfast joint.

Oooooh, what's this? A huge, delicious torta for 6.50? With perfectly ripe avocado, just the right amount of jalapeno, a crusty, toasty bolillo, and so much delicious queso and huevo that they knew to wrap BOTH ends to preserve it's structure 'till the very last bite?\n\nThis might be it. Might be. The Torta I have been searching for.\n\nAt first scan, the menu could put the veggies off, but if you tengo a little espanol, they're awesome about making it work, at least bean + cheese wise. So get the torta, or the enchiladas, or the tostadas, or the burrito - but make sure to grab a papusa too - they're good here, with that delicate slaw, and some weird bean broth I'd never had. \n\nTwo salsas as you sit - both good - green's better. On the list for next trip - Chilaquiles, and maybe one of those open-faced burritos I'd only ever seen at Lempira. They dabble in Ecuadorian but not deeply enough for tostones, sadly.\n\nWho cares. Torta, I ruv you.

I came in around 7 pm and was on an important call I couldn't hang up on but the girls were starring at me for a few minutes so after a lady came out of my preferred bed I informed her that's the bed I was waiting for. The girl with red wavy hair with 3 inch roots said it's taken so I replied she just came out, she then rolled her eyes and asked me for my information. A little taken back by the blatant disrespect I sat down. she rudely said I need your finger print so I got up and did the finger print then she giggled to the other girls behind the counter. I waited for 5 minutes after the bed was cleaned while she talked to the girls. Needless to say I'm taking my diamond package to body heat. Horrible environment and service

Disappointing. They were extremely rude. I was on my way to work (which is in the same parking lot might I add...) It was 5 minutes before breakfast was ending and I was on break hoping to get some chicken nuggets and they made it seem like it was impossible to get the chicken nuggets before then. They were extremely rude the whole time. Every time I go in there they are rude and the place is always so dirty. So disappointing. Luckily there are plenty of other places around here to eat right across the street! :)

First off, read this with the understanding that it is a very new place and may not have hit its stride yet...\n\nMy brother and I are both native Texans. We are very open minded about different types of BBQ and understand that there are a million variations of it...and we love them all! LOL \n\nThe above being said, the food served at Brickhouse can in no way be construde as BBQ. My brother had the \""so called\"" brisket sandwich which should be appropriately renamed as a roast beef sandwich...if that is actual brisket, they need serious lessons. It was flavorless and dried out from being reheated improperly.\n\nI had a sausage combo that claimed to be both cajun sausage and smoked sausage but they both looked and tasted identical and neither tasted great. The sauces served along with the meals are good. The sides are interesting and actually more flavorful than the main courses. The one thing that I had that knocked my socks off was the lemon icebox pie...it was frozen solid and hard to cut but it tasted great.\n\nAs other reviewers have pointed out the atmosphere, selection, and service were are all very good. There is a rooftop bar that hasn't opened yet but it looks like it might be a great hang.\n\nPerhaps they should just tweak the name to \""Brickhouse\""? Then people like me will relax about the BBQ thing. LOL After all, it is a beautiful place.

We went to the NHRA Drag races last weekend and thought it was a good time to finally try this place. \n\nThe service was great - we were greeted promptly and our server was attentive. However - it seemed half the food on each plate was cold. The mash was good - but cold. The brisket tastes fabulous but was cold. The ribs were great and served hot, the chicken was good and served hot, the beans were good and served hot. So in short - the food was good but it was hit or miss on temperature. \n\nFurther - we paid just about $60.00 for lunch. It has cloth napkins which matches the bill but it seems they want it to be a more casual place. There were more employees than customers which caused a \""gathering\"" at the food bar in the back of the dining room. They seemed to be having a lot of fun. \n\nIt's certainly over priced OR they need to change it up so the food and restaurant are more in line with such high ticket items. \n\nI'd go back - but only if someone else is buying.

I came here for tapas after reading the reviews on yelp. I love to eat tapas in my hometown and was a little skeptical whether or not this place could live up to my LA expectations. Radio Maria did not disappoint!\n\nFirst off, I loved the atmosphere. The architecture and style of the place is so artistic and unique. It's beautiful. I love the artwork all over the walls and the bar area especially. \n\nThe dim lighting and the small bites menu definitely makes it a great place to go out with friends or to go on a date. The drinks are reasonably priced and tasty too.\n\nI had the lamb meatballs, the bread with fig jam, and the bread with serrano pork and orange marmalade and the potatoes. I'm forgetting the name of each dish but they are on the tapas menu. Everything I ordered was great, but the potatoes were AMAZING! They were crispy and had a delicious flavor because they were hickory smoked. They also came with a delicate drizzle of the most delicious sauce, I wish I knew the ingredients so I could re-create this dish. I can't wait to come back to have them again!

I like Lee Lee's. To me, this place is like Lee Lee's, but closer to my house.

I searched on Yelp for Seafood and this place came up with great reviews so we decided to try it. Besides, I love Mexican and my husband loves Seafood so we were excited to try it and get the best of both worlds. I wish I had the opportunity to review their food, but we never received what we ordered. Their service is HORRIBLE. My hubby and I went here on a Saturday night and yes, the place was crowded. But when you see others arriving later than you and getting their orders before you = not right! I ordered a simple taco and enchilada and my better half ordered the fried, whole tilapia. We waited over 45 minutes and yet nothing came. And the waitress only came by once during this time to ask us my husband if he wanted another beer. No, we want our FOOD! Completely ridiculous! Now, I'm not one to play the prejudice card but I can't help but wonder if this was because we were practically the only non-hispanic people in the place. Since the waitress never came by again, we had to go up to the counter and ask for our check to pay for the drinks and leave. They even tried to charge us for the entire meal we didn't even get and were surprised that we refused to pay for it! What?!?! They never commented at all why our food never came out. If you are not hispanic, save yourself from bad service and stay clear away from this place.

Never been to a Cirque show before and after much reviewing and friend influences to go see these shows - we reviewed 'o', got the most expensive seats and really looked forward to it... \n\nVERY DISAPPOINTED... lots of non-sense... randomness... no story line (and that could be my fault for expecting a story), stunts/acrobatics... blah, nothing out of this world... u see better stuff on TV. Water acrobatics? Please... bunch of people diving in and out of a water with cute costumes... and that is really it - lots of eye-candy... nice costumes and that is all... music was terrible... not my taste at all... was expecting something more eclectic/operatic.... very pop-Hindi cookie cutter compositions. \n\nWhat saved the show? The clown interludes were real funny... real cute... and well done. \n\nIn a nutshell... I am a very open-minded person, cultured and artsy and really anything goes but this show inspires nothing. I went to this particular show because it had the best ratings everywhere I looked. But still, I don't regret not going - at least I know what they are about (will never pay to see another one). If you are unsure - trust me, get the cheap seats - at least you can say you've done a show. But expect no storyline, sub par acrobatics/stunts, lots of non-sense movement and sequences... very long, and emotionless. \n\nPeople next to me were oohing and aahing - I can't understand why - if you are easily amused, think germans cars are better then japanese cars, have and ipod but use a pc, use ShutterFly instead of Flickr, or use Hotmail/Yahoo instead of Gmail - then you will like it - if not, you know there are better things out there. Hope this helps... I could have used a young, urban, real-rating to this show.

Unfriendly staff. Ordered the chicken shawarma, ate about a third of it and found a long hair in it. Took it back to the counter and wasn't even given an apology, just simply oh I'll have them remake it for you. When they brought the new plate to my table again no apology, the girl just sat it on the table and turned around and walked away. You would think at the very least they would give you a free dessert or offer to give your money back...nope!! Again unfriendly staff. Won't be back and will make sure I spread the word. On another note the food was very disappointing. The only thing that I enjoyed was the pita bread. Hummus was nasty and their rice had a strange taste to it. Thought it would be good based on their stars. Gross, simply gross.

Finally tried out the Tryst Cafe after a hike Sunday morning and I must say, I am so excited to have a new \""close to home\"" breakfast spot. The food was fantastic, in fact, I am still dreaming about my Hawaiian Breakfast, which I will hopefully be having again this weekend! \n\nThe service was very good, they even made accommodations for us to sit outside at a special table because we had our dog after the hike. Since this place is so close to home, I know we will be back often! Hopefully others will see how great it is and make sure it stays in business. The menu is unique, yet familiar. Go to Tryst cafe and enjoy!

I really, really, really wanted to like this place! I brought my two daughters here for afternoon tea service as a little treat for us over Christmas break. I'm glad that they are such wonderful sports. I was just a bit unimpressed by this alleged high tea service.\n\nYou're certainly paying for the ambience - and not much else. There are 3 options for afternoon tea service:\n\n- standard service for $17 for 3 very small tea sandwiches, 2 scones, 3 petit fours and a pot of tea\n- Royal service for $24 - everything above plus your choice of a champagne cocktail, kir royale or a mimosa\n- Mad Hatter tea service for $10 (kids 10 and under) - includes 2 cookies, one small PB&J and a small banana sandwich\n\nThe service was very inattentive. It took about 10 or 15 minutes for our server to arrive and take our order. With only 3 items on the menu, there's not much suspense here for the server. There's a pretty good chance I'm going with one of the two tea options and since I came with two girls aged 4 and 7, they're going with the kid version. \n\nThe treats were tasty enough, small portions and it took quite a while for them to arrive. The kids were pleased as can be to be on this outing and they were just taking it all in, as they should. Daddy on the other hand was wondering where our server was with my check and then what was taking so long to process my payment.\n\nWhen I hear afternoon high tea service, I was hoping for something along this lines of this recent experience in Victoria, British Columbia at The Fairmont:\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz/the-fairmont-empress-victoria-2#hrid:xpD2ILdG1yszsgbdTKHtsw\n\nJudging from the other reviews, clearly this hotel is an institution. But, for the price, I was hoping for something more in the food and service departments. \n\nYou can come out ahead if you just sat in the lobby and ordered a tea and scone from the Starbucks that shares the same space.

do NOT.....I repeat DO NOT take advantage of a \""travelzoo\"", \""ladies night\"" or \""insert any special deal here\"" offer for Nove. \n\nThis MAY be a great place to eat with great food...but you DO NOT get any of that, AT ALL...if you are there using any type of discount whatsoever.\n\nI came in on a $99 travelzoo deal. What was supposed to be a $320 meal for two, was nothing more than a Fridays/Applebees happy hour special. Two glasses of garbage champagne, followed by cold/cool Calamari and a side of 4 pieces of pepperoni and salami. Then comes the Salmon (avg at best), and the Chicken parmesan (exactly equivilant to Burger Kings). The chicken was a superthin piece of formerly frozen chicken. tough, chewy, horrible...and not even hot. HORRIBLE. we didnt even eat the desert.\n\nWe had a bottle of Fiji, a domestic beer, and a $16 glass of wine. Waiter returns with a $172 bill (after my travelzoo voucher). not sure if he was trying to con us or not, as the bill showed a $2xx travelzoo discount on it. He said \""oh, no no, thats fine, just deduct that $99 from the bill and thats what we charge, this is just how the receipt is done\"". Yea..whatever guy. So, we were charged the tax on the full $320, and gratuity was also fully added on the $320 (even tho we saw our waiter twice), plus the $9 bottle of Fiji water. \n\nIn the end, it cost me a total of $171 (voucher included), to eat what would have cost about $25 at a Fridays or Applebees happy hour. And to be completely honest....it would have been better at either of those joints. Absolutely unreal that they would do this, even as a revenue booster in a bad economy. The food does not represent their establishment in the least (id really hope not!), and for someone who did well at the casino, I would have been interested in going back to have it again (if its all that people says its cracked up to be on the regular menu). But we'll never know. And have NO intention of ever finding out. \n\nLeft with a bad taste in our mouths...both figuratively and literally. \n\none star is too much.

Switched from Botox to Dysport so I was a tad bit nervous. Scheduling the appointment--simple. Upon arrival, their customer service is tried and true. One of the nurses took me back and called Lynette (after explaining the number to me).. to make sure she was maximizing my units . I only used half of my purchased ones. When a business like this, credits you and says \""they'll be here for your next appt\"". You know they are worth your time and money. There prices are reasonable and they will text/email you their specials. I live 29 miles away, and I will definately go back!

Tucked into an otherwise unassuming warehouse district, straddling the line between Southend and South Tryon Street sits this most handsome and accessible craft brewery, where the beer is fresh and wicked tasty. While the immediate neighborhood might not be much to look at, this is definitely one book to investigate beyond the cover.\n\nJust a step inside the tasting room is enough to wow. Plenty of handsomely finished wood tables of all different sizes: perfect for parties of 2 or twelve. A floor to ceiling wall of glass separates you from the large fermentation tanks and the actual brewery operations. Very cool to see folks working on the next batch of beer while sit back and sip in style. You'll find the daily beer options on large black chalkboards behind a large and handsome wooden bar. I like that they list out the ABV (alcohol by volume), as some of the selections are more the double the alcohol of a regular beer! A handful of TVs also grace the walls here, so it's possible to watch the game and enjoy your brew too. \n\nThis brewery is quite dog-friendly too. It's not unusual to see some neighborhood four-legged friends wandering both indoors and out. All part of the lassies-faire vibe that runs through here and extends to most of the patrons coming out to share a pint or two.\n\nThe outside has recently been updated to a nice patio/garden feel with a number of picnic tables with umbrellas for the warmer months. You might even find a lawn game or 2 to pass the time. Most nights you'll also likely find a food truck pulled up alongside the gate, so do check with the brewery's social media to get the latest updates. Makes it very tempting to do dinner and wash it down with something fresh from the tap!\n\nAs for the beer, well, it's pretty darn good, with a handful of unique options, such as the smoked amber. It's not my forte, but it's also not something you can go pick up down on the corner shop. Most pints go for about $4 and growlers can be purchased or refilled on the spot. I am found of the IPAs, however, with special mention going to their 'Baby Maker\"" Double IPA. Served in a brandy snifter, this bad boy packs a punch and begs to be sipped slowly, especially clocking in at an impressive 8.5% APV.

Wow... Let down, the food was great, best burgers ever....Not anymore!!! Thinner than In & Out Burger. The waitresses are awesome but the food took a turn for the worse with their recent remodel... What were the owners thinking? How do you fix something that is great? You don't you leave it alone!!! Too bad, so sad... Won't be going back, was in there on Saturday night and very few people there... Now I know why.

I had this in Atlanta during a 45 min layover and thoroughly enjoyed the Western Burger (#4 on the menu), so I was super excited to see its here in LV. Def one of my faves, I joke w/ my friends the Im in love w/ a sandwich.

Ho, brah...heard dis place was da kine, went here wikiwiki at pau hana time....Finding ono grinds in Arizona is tough, yeah. Evens do, Arizona has choke local people. Whadda gives, you say brah? Do local people stop liking Hawai'ian food when dey come to da mainland? Ho don't look at me, brah, I'll nevah forget my first time grinding at Rainbows, washing down my plate lunch with a slush float...but anywayz....\n\nAloha Kitchen ain't Rainbows brah. It hints at da Islands with a linoleum floor and basic tables and chairs. (Dis assumes brah you come on a day other than Mondays, when da Kitchen is pau.) But as you walk around don't expect to see like shave ice, or spam musubi, or some guy with a wet okole. Still, it's casual and relaxed and usually not loud n crazy.\n\nNot that I know fo sure brah. I always get da kalbi to go, and don't stick around der long. So you says to youzeself, brah, dis fella order one thing on da menu and he's gonna tell me how dis place broke da mouth? Brah, fo reals. Da proof is in da mac salad, scoops of rice, youze name it. Go to a chain like L&L or Ono....you see what I mean, bumbye. \n\nAloha Kitchen is strictly a counter place. Da grinds may come with a touch of ohana...but don't expect anyone to serve you. You order, you pay, an den you grind brah, An wen you done, you talk story until you're pau. Still, da girl at da counter is choke friendly, and never rude.\n\nWhuzzat youze say? Doesn't everything in Hawai'i cost more? Especially grinds? Fo sure brah...a trip to a supermarket in Hawaii can give you chicken skin. Good news is brah, da Kitchen won't do that. As of yet, nothing is over $10...but den again, is it gonna stay dat wayz fo evahs? No ways, brah, no ways. \n\nS if it is take out you crave, and you don't feel like Subwayz, or Mickey D's, den take youze opu to Aloha Kitchen, You'll be hundred of miles away from da beach, or waterfalls, or an ABC Store...But...you'll be full...an not just of aloha brah.

Actually quite a nice experience here. We had a light early dinner here in the bar/lounge area. We were not allowed in the main dining hall due to a friend's attire (he had just got out of Marquee, their pool club).\n\nI don't even fine italian food very often, but color me happy here. The bread basket was awesome! They had a salami bread in there... ask for extra :) The olive tapenade they served it with was also stellar. I could eat that stuff alone.\n\nOrdered the duck + foie gras ravioli. It was really good. Friends ordered the spaghetti due to some rave reviews from my friend who had been here before. I thought the spaghetti was good, but not $25 good. The duck+foie gras ravioli was possibly worth the $27 they charged for it.\n\nWe sat in the lounge, so maybe didn't get the full dining experience, so charging the full dining room price for lounge food knocked the experience down some. \n\nAlmost a 5 star place imo.

Fabulous place to stay. It's gorgeous and has a good club inside. There are tons of good places to eat including a great pizza place in a small nook.\n\nWhy 4 stars and not 5 stars?\n\nThey charge an exorbitant amount for an extra fridge, same for coring a bottle for you. Why the hell isn't it complimentary?? \n\nAs well when we checked in, there was a pop can missing from the fridge when we got there and then the hotel proceeded to charge us for it at the end of our stay. $7 for a coke I never even drank?? Na ah!! So they took it off after I pointed it out on the bill. \n\nThe concierge checking us in was great. The one checking us out...couldn't do basic math. \n\nI would def recommend this place if it's in your vacay budget!

Mediocre Italian food. I had a pizza and it was quite bland. The waiter was nice, though.

That was then...this is NOW!\n\nWe're Chris Bianco fans...so I'm not surprised we like this new place. I'd seen the mediocre reviews others have given and was surprised. I'd called Pane Bianco earlier today to see what their hours were now and asked about the poor reviews at Italian Restaurant and learned that the management team and chef had been turned over in the past weeks, so I thought this would be a good time to try it out. Glad we did!\n\nFirst...the food was excellent. People were complaining about small portions, but the two of us could barely finish the food we ordered. The portions of the gnocchi and the Polpetone were huge! Service was excellent too...we arrived early evening getting a table wasn't an issue. I suspect that will change as people realize that they've listened to the feedback and changed things for the better.\n\nFood. We shared a nice peach, arugula, goat cheese and candied pecan salad...again, nice size with delicious and perfectly ripe peaches...tasty all around...not over-the-top, but very good. We also shared two entrees - and these WERE over the top good! Gnocchi that was large but very light and fluffy (best I've had since Venice!)...saut\u00e9ed to a little crispy edge...and served with roasted pork. It was succulent and delicious...very juicy and flavorful. The other entree was \""polpetone\"" which I'd never had before but it was a truly perfectly cooked light/softly roasted and slightly sweet meat loaf. I make a kick-ass meat loaf and this rated right up there. It was served with heavenly smoky-salty-tasty baked beans and saut\u00e9ed escarole...the latter was a bit more \""ok\"" but the rest of the dish rocked. We ordered a side order of meatballs - I'm not a meatball fan but my partner is. I thought they were ok...he thought they were very good and liked that the tomato sauce tasted like tomato!. They were good...but the polpetone really was heavenly.\n\nNo dessert...to much other food! We had a glass of prosecco each and we spent about $35/person before the tip. Maybe it's just us...but we definitely felt like we got our money's worth. It was classic Bianco...delicious food expertly prepared and served. Worth the trip!

After a foot injury and dealing with Plantar Fasciitis for the last few years, my physical therapist suggested I try custom Orthotics. I liked that the Hamiliton Prosthetics' Central Phoenix location is not that far from where I live and parking is easy.\n\nThis was actually my second visit to address my concerns about custom insoles. Dave added padding to my running insoles for more cushion, at no charge, and recommended that if I didn't see an improvement on my own, to return. \n\nOn a whim, I drove by and Steve was free prior to an appointment - so I asked questions and finally deicded to have my feet molded for the custom insoles. Yes, they're a bit pricey but after this injury, I have to consider all options so I won't have to deal with this again. \n\nInsole are in...No really...they're in my shoes right now! I feel like Dorothy in her fabulous pair of Pumps. I'm not wearing Pumps though...but anyway, I'm so happy and most of all my feet are happy. I have to get used to the feel of the insoles in shoes before I can take them out for a run. Thanks Steve for all your help. Cheers***

God, I would hate to have dietary restrictions. I mean I try to eat healthy whenever possible, but raw food is just unappetizing. Yeah I know it's good for me. It's good to eat walnut puree instead of meat and it's good to eat strawberries within 12 minutes of them being picked but whatever, I like my food cooked. \n\nSo that's my attitude in general towards raw food and my review comes with it that attitude. That being said, Fresh Mama is seriously lacking. I've had their juices a couple times and today, a wrap. The wrap itself juiced its contents all over my hands and lap. Let me tell you, those contents weren't that good when they were a cohesive unit. They really weren't that good when they were being eaten in their parts with my fingers. \n\nIn short, I remain unconvinced.

One of the bigger pool parties I've been too. Definitely is spacious enough for busy weekends/special events.\n\nThey have 2 big pools and a lazy river. There are plenty of bars around. \n\nLove their nachos! Not too spicy but has a kick. The frozen drinks are tasty, but can't taste the alcohol!! Tastes more like non-alcoholic drinks! For $34 (biggest size) and $24 souvenir mugs I expect to get a little more buzzed!\n\nThe music at the Producer's Pool and way louder and more poppin'. \n\nTip: They are super strict on entry. They actually swipe your key card to make sure it's still active.

Disappointing :(\n\nI finally get a chance to visit Pawn Stars! and there was no Pawn Stars to be seen...\n\nWhen we first arrived, the line went all the way to the end of the block. But I was determined to get in there no matter how long the wait was! And you know what? The line moved pretty quick :) We were in there in less than 20 minutes. \n\nThe shop was pretty small. A good section of it was dedicated to merchandising for the show. There were various items on display. Those that were featured on the show had a little tag next to it saying \""As seen on the show\""\n\nI'm ok with all of this: the line and the merchandising. \n\nSo why the 2 STARS? When you go to Disneyland, you expect to see Mickey, or Minnie, or Donald, or any of the Disney characters for that matter. I'm not a hardcore fan, but I did make it a point to check their website to make sure that they were in town in hopes to see them at the pawn shop. I'm not saying I have to see ALL of them, but it would have been nice to see at least one of them ( instead of a cardboard cut out ). *sadface* After all, THEY are the ones that made the place (and the show) what it is.

Wow!! This is Old Town Scottsdale's best kept secret!!! My husband and I have driven past this little venue dozens of times and only by chance did we decided to stop on for a late breakfast, which they serve ALL day!! Upon entering you'll be greeted by friendly faces and an eccentric environment. The menu is simple and I'm sure the hosts will go into detail on all the different ingredients that they make and cook themselves. I got the Belgium waffle with hit fruit compote - so good! But be careful the compote was smoldering!! My husband got the pancakes with maple syrup, he loved it! The bacon was spot on, crunchy and delicious. And the eggs, while really over priced. But they were the best $4 eggs I've ever had!!! I highly recommend this place. It's pretty small though, so don't plan a big party! \nI forgot up mention the chai tea! Get it!!! So yummy and milky!

Ate here for valentine's day with a prix fixe menu. WHAT A RIP OFF! $69/person + $20/person for wine pairings... Not including a 21% automatic gratuity for HORRIBLE SLUG-LIKE service!!! The waitress was super chatty and nosey when I was trying to have a romantic dinner with my girlfriend. The owner went to every table EXCEPT for ours to greet and make sure everyone was satisfied, although i did catch her looking at our table twice... Is everyone in arizona racist against Asians or something? \n\nPot pie came out with FORKS instead of spoons.... huh?! The wrong second course was brought to our table... And we waited 20 minutes to have our water refilled. Seriously?!\n\nFood: The owner should be embarrassed! The menu was entirely new with courses they've never tested out beforehand... And it all sucked!!!! Prawns and scallops were raw... At least sear the dang thing, the last time I checked I was at a French restaurant, not out having sushi. Oyster pot pie was disgusting... Might as well have gone to Marie calendar's for that. Petite filet was decently flavored, but a bit dry. Dessert was pathetic- you would THINK a nutella apricot upside down cake would be mouth wateringly delicious, but surprise!!!!!! It was a dry flippin cake with burnt nutella on top. Betty Crocker, please teach the chefs at Petite Maison a thing or two -_- \n\nI really wanted to try the infamous foie gras there since its been banned in california, but I'm so glad I didn't. It would've probably ruined my love for foie gras forever, just like this restaurant ruined what WAS a perfectly good valentine's day. \n\nMerci Petite Maison............... for the worst experience ever!

Aww...Mr. and Mrs. Sree, I know that you can do better. I want you to. \n\nI was really disappointed to be eating vegetables that came from a can last Monday. It brought back (bad) memories of my mom's pop-open-a-can-dash-of-salt culinary style, or as my partner mentioned -- cafeteria food complete with the no-nonsense service. The green beans were nostalgically plain and the carrots were very oily. The spices were not very distinct in any of the dishes. And the pita on the side was an unwelcome touch. \n\nThe cost matters much less to me than flavor. I could buy a more satisfying array of canned goods at the grocery store for $5, while I would happily pay $10 for a quality authentic Indian style lunch. \n\nI am sure that Sree's is highly convenient for those who work (or live in a box) downtown, and for those poor souls, I recommend that you at least bring your own container to save the styrofoam.

\""3000+ miles in 7 days\"" : this was the 6th hotel stop on the asian bus tour (from CA to yellowstone to mt rushmore to vegas) that my mom and i went on this past summer...\n\nscale of 1-5 (1 = awful; 5 = good) for:\n\n1. cleanliness: 2\n2. comfort: 2\n3. bathroom: 3 (awesome shower pressure!)\n\nTOTAL: 7 out of 15\n\nstandard amenities: smaller room, not on the strip (but you can take the deuce (public shuttle) to the strip, and a nice flat screen w/cable.

We went here bc it was so highly rated on TripAdvisor. Should've listened to you, YELP. \n\nSo many buffets to choose from, and at a comparable price ($40) to Como's (Wicked Spoon) and Encore's -- this one pales in comparison. \n\n- The line to get in seems to always be really long, except at random hours that aren't usually when people eat\n- We went after reading all about the crab, but this is where we were most disappointed (and entire Yelp Star off) for the crab (snow, king): they served it cut in half (length wise) which means you're getting little shards of meat, not those heavenly huge chunks you can get when you crack it yourself. They also serve it cold (read: it's completely frozen) and steamed (limp, soggy, gross)\n- Huge selection, so if your goal is to stuff your face you're all set and you'll be in heaven -- but if your goal is to taste really well-done versions of international foods-- then this is not your place \n- Sushi/sashimi are terrible

Hey it's cheap, conveniently located & funky. Great little outdoor pool just like in leaving Las Vegas. I've stayed here several times for trade shows at bigger more expensive hotels. Your experience 100% depends on who you get in the rooms next to yours; considerate neighbors or noisy idiots. Also check out the Super8 for great rates but....NO POOL! HoJo's has a pool....

This only applies to their pho. It's basically hot water, meat, and noodles. There is no flavor whatsoever.

Banh mi or Vietnamese sandwiches bespoke of the French colonial occupation of Vietnam and their influence on Vietnamese cuisine. The many, many varieties available at Lee's showcase this. The baguettes are done reasonably well though its mainly a matter of preference ( I've had friends say that they are too hard and others say that they are too small or skinny), I find them quite acceptable. The favorites and ones usually most ordered by the Asian customers tend to be the Banh mi's. There are western styles based on croissant as well as baguettes. The croissant texture is good and the taste buttery. Though again complaint range from not being enough \""fluffy\"" to \""too buttery\"". \nThe drinks are vietnamese style iced and fruit drinks ranging from durian, mango, etc. to penny wort. Iced coffee is fantastic though it may seem very small but the caffeine kick definitely lets you know its European origins. \nGelato is present and its a shame more people don't get it because its well made and quite a bargain. \nSpring rolls are great and really addictive. Pork buns are ok. The pate pastries are great as well as the other sweet rolls and muffins.\nI've not had any of the other things like the imported butter so I leave that to any of you to comment.\nI've had many banh mi's in Garden Grove (Little Saigon) and in Los Angeles as well as in San Diego. As my Vietnamese friends tell me, Lee's are OK. There are definitley better ones but I give them 4 stars for coming out to Arizona and setting up a well run sandwich shop and giving fairly affordable and tasty food.

So apparently this company doesn't hold values of equality, so when my friends were planning on investing time and money for their special day with this company, they were denied because they're lesbians. I wonder if they're against mixed race marriages too. So how about you not support those who treat people like this.

This is a staple in my restaurant adventures. The staff are very friendly and warm from start to finish . My hubby chose the fish cakes for the appetizer , I was not a fan just because I am not the biggest fan of fish. I did try a sample to give it a chance.The texture for me was a turn off but I am sure for fish fans it is a good choice, as my husband seemed to like it. ;) I had the chicken pad Thai , it is my favorite here. The servings are great portions. You can order spice level 1-10, I like a 4 sometimes to savor the sweeter side of the dish. I really should try a new dish but it's hard to stray from this local fave. They have a full bar with a relaxing ambiance. Must try this Thai !

Their garlic naan is some of the best naan I've had in the valley. Their service was good and their decor was very beautiful. We used a Groupon and the meal was a great deal! We would definitely return.

Mike didn't return the phone call on a timely fashion like he said he would, we had to call him to remind him of our conversation, he then setup an appointment that he no showed. Save your time, something that you'll never be able to replace once its wasted!!! This fiasco just set us back a week to move-in to our new home. LAME!!!

Cheap, fast, delicious, clean, friendly staff. Always been and will continue to be my spot. 10/10 would try again.

Run of the mill \""we're open on Sunday and have a huge menu so it's a breakfast\"" place. Service is usually good (not great - simply because of how large the place is) but the quality of service and food has gone down.\n\nIf you want to stuff your face full of absurdly organized junk/breakfast food and are too classy for ihop; this is your spot.

Based on previous yelp reviews, I was hoping to find another phoenix gem but alas I was dissapointed.\n\nThe one thing about the reviews that was correct: service is not great.\n\nHere's the simple lowdown:\n\nFood is a solid 3\n\nChips and Salsa were decent - chips were nice a warm\n\nGuac sucks - its the kind that they make every so often and put in refrigerator (try los somberros or bario cafe for real gauc)\n\nTaco - good flavor on the ground beef - but taco was luke warm, like it had been sitting 10-15 minutes\n\nFood Smell - I'm not sure if this was because I read on previus review...But I did notice a wierd smell to the enchilada.

Met Paul, gave me his card and cell and said he'd take care of me. Amazing guy, and he knows a Ghostbuster! Tried the house blend twister, it was amazing! Came back the next night for the buffet which is an incredible deal! Get a cigar here and go to the 4Queens Chicago brewing co for a great night! Will be back for more!

Poor service and mediocre food; our money would have been better spent at Denny's. - Our first 2 entrees arrived about 10 minutes before everyone else's WITHOUT utensils. I immediately notified the person who brought the food that we had nothing to eat with. We never saw that person again. I got up and found a busser that we needed utensils he said ok but got distracted and didn't bring the utensils. I got up once again and finally got utensils to our table (3rd request). So annoying to have the food at the table, watching it get cold, while you are continually ignored and having nothing to eat with. \n- The other dishes came out but somehow they completely forgot one person's order. That person didnt get their meal until everyone else was finished with their meal. How ridiculous. \n- My meal came out piece meal. They brought the gravy out before the biscuits were readt. I asked them to take the gravy back and just bring it back when the biscuits where ready as the gravy was already cold. What do they do? Instead of serving up a new cup of gravy they zapped in the microwave making unbearably hot to eat and leaving the top dried and crusted. \n- This horrible service was complimented with food that was not even that good. Very disappointed with everything. Don't recommend this place to anyone.

Visited NY 54 with kids on Saturday for some pizza and hoping to watch some football. We asked to sit near the television to watch the game. All was well until another customer requested tennis. Yeah...tennis. We asked the server to return to football but since another customer requested tennis.... We watched tennis. So my advice is if you want to watch football I would recommend another place. But if you want to watch live tennis.....THIS IS YOUR PLACE! Food was ok.

Like \""good things come in small packages\"", great sandwiches can come from small shops. What the Vermont Sandwich Company lacks in dining area is more than made up by the size and flavor of those big beautiful sandwiches!\n\nI met a friend for a late lunch - a nice break from the typical 'eat at my desk while doing three other things' type of days I usually have. Since variety is the spice of life, we ordered two different sandwiches to split:\n \n- Long Trail (delicious roast beef on sourdough with crumbled bacon, muenster cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion, green pepper and a fantastic horseradish mayo)\n\n- The Vermonter (maple glazed turkey & honey baked ham on wheat wtih sharp cheddar, lettuce, red onion, thinly sliced granny smith apples and cranberry mayo)\n\nIt was past the lunch rush, so our food was prepared pretty quickly. When I first saw the sandwiches I thought \""So how exactly am I supposed to eat these?\"" They were big. Very, very big. With a little squishing/flattening I managed without making too huge of a messy disaster. While I enjoyed them both, my favorite by far was the Long Trail. VSC roasts their own beef, and it went so nicely with the horseradish mayo. Delish!\n\nBefore we left, we were given a sample of a freshly-baked peanut butter/chocolate chip cookie. Mmmm...\n\nIf you have the Phoenix edition of the Entertainment Book, VSC has a coupon - buy one menu item and get one free, up to $8. That's a whole sandwich, people! Enjoy! :)

Delicious and truly authentic ala-carte filipino restaurant!! My entire family decided to have dinner there and enjoyed our experience. Staff was attentive, menu selection was plentiful, and food was amazing! Taking all my relatives from the east coast there for sure.

This may just appear to be a diner in the Flamingo, serving up uninspired food to an older crowd and tourists, but I'm here to tell you if you like bacon, especially in the BLT form you should pay a visit to Tropical Breeze.\n\nI ordered one of these magical sandwiches on my last visit here and the sandwich was so thick that I had to take some stuff off to get it in my mouth. True, I did add avocado, but still. There was so much bacon I thought perhaps I had actually had that mimosa-induced fall into the LoveTub (please see my Imperial Palace review if you need more information on this) and was now in diner heaven. I also had an entire avocado half on there, three thick slices of tomato and plenty of lettuce. Served alongside this glorious creation was more French fries that Nick and I could handle, cooked perfectly crispy and paired with blue cheese dressing that rivaled most I've had in the past 5 years.\n\nWhile the service may be what I'd call \""lackluster\"" and the cashier lady was a total B, I'd definitely come back here again and again for my Vegas bacon fix.

El Mesquite is an outstanding neighborhood spot where tradition meets plate- and the customers are the big winners. As others have mentioned, this is a neighborhood place, where everyone knows each other, and the servers work here forever.\n\nIf you need corporate clutter, fake ambiance, licence plates on the wall, etc. this is not a place for you. If you like authentic food, warm service and spicy tasty salsa, then grab a table, and tell your taste buds to buckle up.\n\nI first went to El Mesquite years ago when I worked downtown. I fell head over heals for their unique chips and addictive spicy salsa. Warning, it is hot, but it's not hot just to be hot, like other places (cough cough, Los Dos...).\n\nBeing that this is a Mexican restaurant, beloved by locals- you will hear Spanish, laughter, English, and sometimes a combo of the three. I really do love El Mesquite, they put up with my crap Spanish, and you do not need to speak Spanish to be comfy at El Mesquite. \n\nAs others have said, when you arrive, you seat yourself, drinks, chips & salsa will be right behind you. Food is great here, and the price point is very good for the value and amount of food you get. I highly recommend the carne asada burro. I know right now America's Taco shop is reigning supreme, but if El Mesquite was near America's, there would be an epic battle because El Mesquite easily beats their carne asada. No bull!$%@.\n\nAlso amazing is their guacamole, unlike many places, El Mesquite doesn't put a bunch of filler ingredients to make the guac go farther. Jus tasty ingredients, and your mouth will be happy. I also want to recommend getting a quesadilla, they are really tasty and cooked to perfection.\n\nEnjoy your trip to El Mesquite, you will not be disappointed, and if you are like me, this place will be in your rotation for 'go to' places!

I love to see places like this that still exist, old fashioned traders making everything by hand! I don't know the first thing about Pottery so all I'll say is that the stuff looks very impressive. Unusually colorful for pots with all different kinds of finishing on them. \n\nOne downside, custom pots can take up to 6 weeks to make so book ahead.

As you may be able to tell, by the line out the door at lunch, this place is darn good. A small salad is the size of your head (dressing on the side please) and you can add 67 ingredients if you wish. Oh, and beer, for the recalcitrant lunchers who want to add some OOMPH to their afternoon (or who want to be extra sleepy). I haven't tried any sandwich yet - but the cobb salad is fantastic. but, as referenced earlier, if you are not wanting to make a 400calorie salad into a 900 calorie stomach-bomb, ask for the dressing on the side.\n\nAnd maybe my tongue is blanched from years of diet coke abuse - but I am not digging the boylan's. I find it to be too sweet. the root beer is good for the first few sips, but it quickly overwhelms the tastbuds - or mine at least...

I have been to a lot of clubs in LA but never explored the Vegas scene and since Tao is one of the places that is frequently raved about I figured I should hit it up. It was a big disappointment and I don't think I would ever go again. My friends and I got on the guestlist and even with the guest list it was an hour wait time. Luckily all of us girls are able to get in for free. There was free drinks for girls on the guest list from 10-11pm but since the waiting was so long by the we got in all the free drinks were gone. Drinks there are about $13 a piece and they were not very strong. So needless to say I think the drinks there are a complete rip off. I enjoyed the decor and the dancers but it was much too small a space for all the people they let in. The big dance room was completely filled and you literally cannot move in there. My friends and I spent most of our time in the small dance room but it was also crowded in there because it was where the reserved seating areas were. The space in the small dance room was really awkward because random sections of it were ropped off to people who reserved it. It wasn't good use of space and the music was not very good. I think I could find better nightclubs in vegas than Tao.

Alright, just to set the record, I gave this place 5 chances to make me not do this, and everytime that I went, I was dissapointed. I wasn't even dissapointed by the same thing evertime I went either. It was always something different.\n\n1st visit: I walked in, and then was ignored by the \""hostess\"" while she was on her cell phone on a \""personal\"" call. The server brought me the wrong drink (lemonade, not ice tea?! -.- seriously...) Even after I asked for the right drink, it never came, so I gave up. The philly steak pita is not so great. Very bland. Service was just jacked up.\n\n2nd visit: Didn't get service until 23 minutes after being sat. Trust me, I timed it. Server didn't even apologize or even point out that we had been sitting there for quite some time. Plus, it wasn't busy. After the food was ordered, I never saw my server until the bill. Brought us the wrong bill...so we had to wait another 15 minutes before we could pay...and then another 15 minutes till we got the right bill. ARGH!!\n\n3rd visit: Ordered the salmon salad, got the salmon entree instead. Told the server, and the server stood in front of me and argued with me about what I had ordered. Pretty much said to my face that I was lying. No tip, FTW!\n\n4th visit: Sat and watched my server (while our drinks were empty) stand behind the bar and chat it up with a couple of coworkers, while our food was dying in the kitchen window (you can see where the servers pick up the food from the kitchen from where you are sitting) Estimated time in the window...14 minutes. WHOOOO!! -.-\n\n5th Visit: This time I decided to skip the service and do a to-go. So I call ahead...get there 15 minutes later...go up to the bar, and tell the lady...\""I'm here to pick up a to-go order under the name of Rebecca.\"" She looks at me dumb founded and then quickly goes to her computer and says \""Oh right, what did you want again?\"" Starts putting in my order as I'm standing there. (Now what was the point in calling ahead?) Then I ask her, \""are you putting in my order right now?\"" she says, \""Uh It's okay, It'll only take like 10 minutes.\"" -.- yeah mmhmm...I watched my food sit in the window of the kitchen...for about 10 minutes. Then some other server packed it up and put it behind the bar, and watched it sit there for another 15 minutes. I didn't get my food until some old guy at the bar pointed out to the bartender that I had been waiting for quite sometime for my food. So all in all, I waited for almost an hour to get my food. With no apology from the dumb bartender.\n\nSo! My final statement here! If you have good luck, by all means run over to pita, and maybe you'll have a good experience, but as for me, you won't see me there ever again =]\n\noh btw, I had both the salmon salad and the salmon entree and both are pretty good, only if you're crazy craving salmon =] good portion and pretty good sides that come with the entree.

Reading some of the reviews, I think that some people fail to realize this is a smaller local 24 Hour. For great classes or a swimming pool I go to the one on Dobson. This one indeed does not have too many classes but this is due probably to the smaller membership at this club and it would be probably not financially worth it for them to schedule more classes. This is still a bad economy and a towel system would cost them. Instead bring your own towel. They also have paper towel and soap stations at different areas. The equipment is cleaned often and if someone else used it before you, don't be a germaphobe. Build a strong immune system! I never have issues finding an available elliptical or treadmill and besides the usual idiot with no gym etiquette (if you don't use the equipment, don't sit at it between reps, get up and let someone use it), no issues with the weight stations either. Overall it is a nice local gym.

With a name like Just Fresh you expect things to be fresh. I was a bit disappointed with the Dill Chicken Salad Sandwich. I think the food to grab at these spots is salad, so partially my fault.\n\nFirst thing that made it weird was the line cook was waiting for the next person to order something with MUSTARD ALREADY ON THE BREAD! Like, anticipation is nice and all but cmon mang. Aside from the fact that someone might not want mustard, the mustard will soak into the bread (yeah, a little nit-picky but it doesn't look appetizing)\n\nSecondly, after paying, some rude customer from the side jumped in to get a water cup and they charged him for it. Time's are tough where people have to drink water instead of refreshing Diet Coke, but for the business to charge for it? Pls.....I asked for a bag to put my food in right before this all happened and I thought \""oh shizzle, how about if she charges me for the BAG?\"" She didn't, but I thought I was the customer right in front of you asking for a bag to take my food in. She helped the water cup dude first then looked at me like what was I doing standing there still. I gently reminded her I needed a bag and was on my way back to the office.\n\nNot coming this way again. They scored my business bc Ri Ra Sandwich bar line was out the door. \n\ndmo out...side in the line waiting at Ri Ra)

This is actually one of the nicest Starbucks locations in Vegas. It looks new and clean, and is situated in a food court along with McDonald's, Manchu Wok, Rubio's, Sbarro's, Subway and H\u00e4agen Dazs. You'll find this on your way in (or out) to the CityCenter Tram Station -- perfect for a value meal or breakfast away from the hotel patrons at ARIA or Monte Carlo.

Good place to grab a quick cheap lunch. Their udon noodle soup tasted of MSG and the tempura coating on the shrimp was disintegrated by the broth, but otherwise everything I've had from here has been yummy. I used to order take out from here all the time when I worked at another location a little further down the strip, and they were always fast and the food hot. My boyfriend and I really liked the lobster roll. I also like their mango and avocado salad- I had it with the chicken and didn't feel like it added enough to be worth the addition. The combination of mango and avocado is delicious enough in and of itself- especially with the fresh, sweet mango used here! I'll be back to try their bento special, musubi and probably the gyoza combo. It's a nice, quick option in the area for something hot and fresh that's not casino-priced. \n\nThe dining area is indeed pretty small, but was big enough to fit a large family, myself and the delivery driver, so it's not too bad. It's not really meant to be a hang out spot, but for a yummy, expedient bite it works great!

I'd like to echo the advice of another commenter: do not pre-pay.\n\nI dropped off a pair of boots for salt removal, new heels, and a polish. I was very specific about the polish, because I wanted them to look nice. When I picked up my boots, I noticed that they looked very dull and there was still clumps of wax on them. When I pointed this out to the clerk, she took them back to the gentleman in the back (the owner, I think). He said that the wax hadn't been buffed off. He gave them a quick polish and took $5.00 off the price. If he had then returned the boots to me freshly polished and shiny, that would have been the end of it. The problem was he gave them a half-assed shine. After sitting for 3+ days with dried wax on them, a quick polish didn't remove much the dullness. When I pointed this out to the gentleman, he said he had done the best he could. Quite frankly, If that's the best he can do, he shouldn't be in shoe repair.\n\n I finally just gave up trying to make him understand why I was unhappy, because it was clear he wasn't going to help me, and he was becoming rude and unprofessional. I had made the mistake of prepaying. He had my money and had no more use for me. I think if I had owed him money, he would have taken my concerns more seriously, instead of becoming increasingly snarky and mean. \n\nI wish that I had paid closer attention to the other negative review about Ullirch's on Yelp (which also includes pictures) because it closely mirrors my own experience, both in terms of workmanship and customer service. The gentleman who owns the shop is sugar and spice when he's taking your money if you foolishly prepay, but quite unpleasant if you dare to complain about shoddy work. Personally, I don't mind if people make a mistake as long as they own up to it and correct it. It's when you're abusive about your own error that I take offense.\n\nIf you do chose Ullirch's, do NOT prepay.

Supple, moist pulled pork paired with a sauce that has a perfect touch of chili flake heat. A must try. No frills, great bbq : O )

I decided to give this place a try after driving by and reading reviews. I wanted a pink/white acrylic set, which I've had done before at other salons. They decided since I wanted them short to just do white tips, which I was actually like the look of better. However, it took over an hour for the service and it was painful. I understand some level of pain goes into the process, but this was not typical. He filed my fingertip so bad that it bled, then he put a skin protectant on without even rinsing the dust out. It burned for a long time and actually was infected within an hour. Also, it doesn't look like they are very sanitary because he used a shared buffing block and put the cuticle oil on from an open shared tub with a brush that just sits in it. To top it off, it cost $40 - which is at least the same if not more than the salon I know does high quality work. \n\nThe space looked nice, very large, but no one else was in the salon over a weekday lunch hour.\n\nFor me, it was too much money, too much time and too much pain for an \""ok\"" job. I'd rather go elsewhere.

Finally, a bakery that makes healthy, gluten-free muffins that honestly taste good! My favorite was the Sweet Potato Pumpkin. Tastes just like pumpkin pie in a muffin. There was also a good selection of other low fat, gluten free and vegan products such as cheese cakes, cookies, and nut butters with healthy, amazing ingredients. The staff was super nice and gave us several free samples.

Giving 5 stars as this and Earth Fare are my favorite markets. \n\n2 or 3 years before Trader Joe's opened here in Charlotte, I had visited one in LA while out west visiting family. I thought to myself , we need one of these in Charlotte. Well, 2 or 3 years later we have our very own Trader Joe's, and it isn't even far from our house. \n\nNow on to details, reasonably priced, good selection of organic items. You will not find any major brands such as Kellogg's cereals or Jif peanut butter. What you will find is that most items are their very own brand, and have yet to be disappointed by any I have tried. Even the frozen section has some really tasty items. And another very nice thing about Trader Joe's .... a great selection of inexpensive wines. So give them a try you will be glad you did. \n\n\nAlso I read another review stating that out of 2 visits, and only 2 visits,bad product was purchased on both occasions. ... sort of defies the odds , don't you think ?

Fogo is unlike any Brazilian Steakhouse I've been to before. They are more upscale and service is the key to their success. My fella requested we come here for his birthday dinner this year. We arrived and were greeted warmly by the hostess. We were taken to our seats and were attentively checked on by all the waiters and gauchos regularly from that point on. \n\nOur waiter explained their ordering process and brought us our drinks. We started with the salad bar. We were careful not to fill up too much on all the delectables there, saving room for the mountain of meat to follow. Then it was time to flip our cards from red to green and prepare for the onslaught. All the cuts we tried were excellent. My favorites were the lamb chops, flank steak and the Picanha. There were a few cuts that were a little overcooked for my taste, but overall the food was fantastic. The cheesy bread was subtle and fantastic and I have to say that I loved the salad bar. I'd probably have no qualms coming back just to indulge in the salad bar while my fella protein-loaded until his heart's content. At the end of our meal, the restaurant manager came by to talk to us and make sure we enjoyed our meal. He even sent over some complementary flan for my fella's birthday. the flan was excellent. The service was perfection and the experience was exactly what I had hoped for. We'll be back.

The bf and I came here on Sunday night for 1/2 priced hookahs and board games. The hookah was excellent! It was by far the smoothest one I've ever tasted.\n\nBeing that it's a dessert bar, there are no full entrees, just apps, sliders, and flatbreads. We ordered the empanadas, the parmesan truffle fries, and the margarita flatbread. Everything was really good. The water they served has sliced cucumber, very refreshing. For dessert, we had the NY cheesecake and the red velvet. The slices were a hefty portion, enough to take home. I will be back, probably on Wednesday for 1/2 price Martini night.

Late brunch for the long Labor Day weekend took place at La Grande Orange. The parking situation and the inside are chaotic. However, the food more than makes up for the inconveniences. The wife had the thai salad which was incredibly fresh. The dressing impressed us with its authenticity, containing actual fish sauce and a spicy kick. I tried the commuter breakfast sandwich which is served on La Grande's very own fresh baked English muffin. While I cannot attest to the authenticity of the muffin, it was fluffy and incredibly tasty (nothing like the nooks and cranies that we have so grown accustomed to associating with English muffins). Plenty of bacon, fresh slices of tomato, atop large golden scrambled eggs. Prices are and wait are well worth the meal. Impressive and will certainly be back, if not for other items on the menu, maybe just to bask in the English muffins once again.

I got a coupon in the mail for a free cupcake so I decided to go in and redeem it. The cupcake selection, to say the least, was a big disappointment (C'mon, a store dedicated to cupcakes and all you got for me to chose from was 5 different ones!). I came in wanting red velvet and left with chocolate/vanilla icing. When I took a bite of it, the frosting fell off the cupcake in one piece and the cupcake tasted stale...definitely not worth the 3 dollars I would have paid for it had it not been for the coupon. Will not be returning.

Staff are helpful and they have items the chain stores don't carry. Great store.

Really good while dining in, but absolutely horrible as room\nService.\n\nThe popover thingys are amazing(dine-in only). I ordered the grilled lobster, and it had a burnt grill taste to it. Hubby ordered the short ribs, and they were extremely good. \n\nPlease see the picture of the room service food -- it was actually the SECOND order of extremely burnt food. \n\nCould be a nice place, but the inconsistency is scary.

Really great food all the times I've been. Servers are never super outgoing and friendly but who cares, they are busy doing a million things and it's pretty much always busy. Don't get me wrong, the service is always good, and my beer never stays empty for more than a minute or two, if that. It's got real character, a dark little hole in the wall place. Most of the time I sit at the bar, and the cooks make up for what the servers may lack in conversation or banter. I like that the cooks have a tip box too, that way I can hook it up if the food or cooks go above and beyond which is most every time. I'm scared to go to the other Cornish pasty because I'm afraid it won't compare... It looks a little too clean and contemporary and in my experience the original is always the best. Not a ton of people know about it, so it's great to take first timers there. The menu is vast, unique, and offers plenty for every taste. Every time I've taken a newbie there they have always, always, always been a big fan. Keep it up fellas, your doing great.

Food was fresh and hot. Customer service was pretty good. Drive thru line went very quickly. Loved my grilled chicken torta.

The atmosphere was fun for football but the food was poor. Cold nachos and they are supposed to be that way? I won't be back and you should think twice if you are hungry.

I absolutely love this little Middle Eastern eatery. The service is great and the atmosphere is casual and intimate. God, you have to try the lentil soup, yes it is as good as everyone has been exclaiming. I will order that every time I go there. I always order falafel (vegetarian $9.95, fava and garbanzo beans deep-fried patties served with hummus, tabouli and pita bread) and it was awesome. My partner ordered the lamb roast ($14.95 tender chunks of boneless lamb in seasoned gravy over rice and topped with toasted almonds.) \n\nEverything was very flavorful and fresh. It is a bit of a shame that this place is kind of hidden with no real exposure. Great for vegetarians and meat eaters alike.

I had to visit this place when I was in Vegas... As a fan of vintage toys and Pawnstars' show, it was a must.\n\nI saw Jonny there and was impressed with the store. Price was a bit higher for some items that I expected, but he has a selection you cant just find anywhere.\n\nDefinitely a place to check out and spend some dollars.

The Gaslight is NOT closed, been open for awhile but now they have a full bar, not just beer and wine.\nEnjoyed the evening sitting outside watching and listening to Haus Murphy's Oktoberfest next door, and no cover charge!\nGreat wine and beer selection, and got a brat to enjoy the polka music.

My experience with Spirit Airlines was atrocious. \n\nIt all began at Las Vegas Airport - we were given no direction while waiting in an incredibly long line to check our bags. Customers finally realized we were in the wrong line, only to be moved to an equally long line with poor service. POOR STAFFING - For the record, I was at the airport nearly 2 hours before my scheduled flight. \n\nI was put on a standby flight that I clearly wasn't going to get on; however, they still ticketed me for this flight while REFUSING to tell me my other options. When I finally was able to get the other option (ie, my original flight had a connection that I was likely going to miss due to a delay out of Las Vegas), the employee told me the wrong time. I was under the impression the flight would be leaving its connection city at 1:30pm. The actual time was closer to 7pm.\n \nSix passengers on the flight from Las Vegas to DFW were hoping to make a connection to Chicago in DFW. Our plane (which was parked at the same gate) left 5 minutes prior to our arrival. There was no coordination of efforts.\n \nBecause of this, 6 of us were stranded in DFW for 12 hours with no hotel option. We were (begrudgingly) given food vouchers. The supervisor, Carlos Betancourt, was the absolute worst customer service employee I've ever come across. I hope you strongly consider a re-training of your employees on customer-centric policies and politeness. As a student of business marketing, I was embarrassed that this sort of behavior is allowed in the airline industry.\n \nCarlos B refused to give me his supervisor's name. I was provided with your 1-800 number - cut off 3 times (it wasn't my phone) just when I was making progress. The lack of synergy between your corporate and field operations is beyond terrible.\n \nI will say, Larissa in DFW (a Spirit staff) was delightful - super nice and understanding. She deserves a raise! Perhaps, she could teach the course on customer engagement. \n\nI personally regret purchasing a ticket from Spirit Airlines - first and last. In the end, I feel like you guys should refund my ticket (and the 5 other passengers), but I realize that's never going to happen. Please try harder - in this economic state, you can't just expect to provide sub-par performance and survive.

Went on a Saturdays night and had a blast. Music was a nice variety.\n\nHad two tables right in front of dj booth, it was awesome.\n\nLots of good surfaces to dance on.. Big +++\n\nDon't remember seeing a bottle service girl after the booze was dropped off but security was very attentive.\n\nHad a good time, they just need to stay open later.

First time here and loved it. Comfort food!! Service is fast, food is great, and prices are low.

Would have been 5 again, but we wanted to start eating, and instead have to stand around.\n Star loss.\nThe Pot of Braad was a vivacious disappointment. Kind of Pillsbury Rolls with a sprinkle of brown sugar, no Peanut Butter flavor at all. They waited to bring it WITH our French Toast. Huh?

When I 1st came here, I couldn't believe how gigantic the sandwiches were. The \""Reuben Sandwich\"" and the \""Woody Allen\"" were so big that there was no way you could finish it in one sitting. Eating the Reuben at Carnegie was like a 12 round boxing match; you needed stamina, endurance, and the will the go on. Times have changed. \n\nToday, I finally got to meet one of my Dad's old military friends. They became friends in the early 1970s, but lost contact after they were discharged from the marine corp. The old man mentioned to me that he grew up in New York and that he is Jewish. I immediately told him about \""Carnegie\"" and he was elated at the idea of eating one of those gigantic sandwiches. I googled the \""Carnegie Reuben\"" and \""Woody Allen\"" to show him the pictures and next thing I know he had sent me to the Mirage to buy him some good Kosher Deli. I really wanted to please the old man because my Dad had been telling me stories about him since I was a kid...but, unfortunately Carnegie didn't live up the hype. \nIt appears that Carnegie is cutting corners now. The Sandwich was only about 1/2 the size of what it used to be. Back in the old days, you weren't able to fit the sandwich in your mouth due to it's practical-joke oversized gimmick. We both finished our sandwiches in less than 5 minutes. He looked at me like I was some kind of idiot and told me: \"" you don't know what real kosher deli is\"". It was a drag letting the old man down.

Very good ambiance. We sat by the large window in the front of the restaurant in a warm evening.\nI started with the foie gras, which was divine. As foie gras lovers, my boyfriend and I agreed that this place has one of the best foie gras that we ever had! They served it with a glass of wine that goes with it.\nI had a dish with fish with vegetables as my entree that was delicious too.\nThe service was very good and the waitress was knowledgeable..

If I could give this place a zero I would. It's so dirty and the food is always stale... I do not recommend eating here at all! I went with a large group one time and they sat us in the back room. It was so disgusting! The windows had dust and sort built up and the floors were covered with crumbs. Looked as if no one cleaned it for months! Also the sushi they served was very gross. Not fresh at all! Tasted like nasty gas station sushi with the rice all mushed together as of it was made from a machine.

Your body should be entrusted to Felicitea. My recommendation to a first time visitor is to get a 1 hour massage after dinner. Once you've had the massage and the post cup of tea you will probably have the best night of sleep you've had in a long time.\n\nEvery massage therapist is a little different. I've been to one in south Charlotte for a couple's massage that the attitude and massage itself was really about luxury than therapy. I've been to one also in Dilworth that emphasizes their low cost but it left me feeling like 45 minutes just wasn't enough. The emphasis here is on attention & care.\n\nThe very first time I booked my appointment unlike others there was more than just a standard disclaimer. There were questions if I'd had a massage before & also a body diagram to note locations of injuries or particular places that were bothering me or where I carried stress. The owner greeted me in the lobby and went over the notes I had made in a way that made me feel she paid a great deal of attention to the needs of her clients than just seeing her next appointment.\n\nI have an office job & I went to visit to take the tension out of my back and shoulders. The massage space is quiet and well decorated as nothing too froo-froo is on the walls. There's a small end table to leave all the stuff that you take out of your pockets when you get changed and the therapist leaves you plenty of time to get settled. \n\nThe massage experience itself is excellent. The tea soaked towels she lays on you at the beginning are a nice difference to transition the muscles to be worked on. The therapist really believes that massage shouldn't hurt and reads very well the fine line between deep enough to feel good and ouch-a-little-too-much. She can be conversational or just leave you to drift off to the mellow kumbaya kind of music that plays lightly in the background if you want.\n\nFelicitea isn't just a great de-stressor. I've had a 30 minute massage just to relax and a 1 hour massage after a hard cycling workout. The owner works with runners, cyclists and all athletes. Even if you don't tell her what your particular sport is she may surprise you and ask you if play/compete in ______ from her experience of knowing what injuries can/do crop up or how that sport affects the body.\n\nAfter the massage when you're feeling all relaxed the owner will make you a cup of her organic blended teas while you're getting dressed. It's a great way of making your insides feel as good as your outsides as you leave.

Saw Rod, the God, the Bod on Sept 20, 2014 he did all the hits you'd want him to do it was great -- he's so good, still as good as ever. When he started The First Cut is the Deepest - I had to tear up -- so many memories, he's a party of the soundtrack of our lifetime. Thank you Rod! And tickets were cheap only like $75 although we were in upper balcony - I'd say, if you're going, spend the $100 and sit closer - would've added the tad bit of closeness we were missing :)

Waited 45 minutes to be seated in a half empty restaurant at lunch time. That was odd. The service was slow and inattentive, and the food mediocre. However, it's a burger joint, and I am sure it's difficult to crank out burgers all day and have them all be perfect. I will try it again some day, because I'm a fan of Gordon Ramsay.

This is for the curbside check in people at the east economy lot. First of all, I don't appreciate being there 95 minutes before my flight, having to wait 6 or 7 minutes for the people in front of me to get done, then get turned away because I'm 88 minutes from my flight. The guy running the show, who isn't very nice, says his computer won't let him do it. I think it's an excuse to be lazy. If it really is the computer thing, they should really build in a grace period. 5 minutes is fine. \n\nThe curbside check in thing is a great service, but they are really turning into luggage nazis. \n\nBottom line: make sure you are there 100 minutes or more before your flight or else you'll be pissed off and stressed out like I was.

The food was amazing and the decor matched the menu.... upscale yet comfortable. It's such a disappointment that the front of the house service was severely lacking on our visit. I've been in many restaurants that give you a time limit on dining but this usually means they will expedite the service so that you can comfortably enjoy your meal within the given time frame. \nWe were allowed 90 minutes to order and eat. We ordered within 10 minutes of arriving and 15 minutes after that, some of the smaller dishes began rolling out. The first few bites of crunchy asparagus, bacon enoki mushroom, homemade tofu was delicious! \nWe realized shortly after that our food just stopped coming.... all the while the food for the parties surrounding us (who ordered their food after us) were getting their food in a timely manner. We had to ask several wait staff about our food as we only had 40 minutes left to eat.\nAlthough the food started arriving at our table, there was no apology nor reason given for the delay. They also forgot my food and said something like \""the kitchen is backed up\"" which I usually am very understanding about but the food for everyone else was coming out with no problem. By the time it arrived, I had 5 minutes to eat (they said they extened our allowed time for 30 minutes because of this).\nWe had to ask 5 times to get 1 water refilled and althought they walked around the dining room with pitchers tending to other guests, it seems they kept forgetting to come around the our corner. My friend's wather glass was bone dry while other tables had their glasses routinely refilled. \nBecause the food was so good, maybe I'd go again but there seems to be so much better options in the immediate area that I'd hate to waste valuable vacation time...

Life is good when a place as amazing as this is right off the light rail line that you can walk to from your house (and I can). I have been meaning to go for ages and finally a group of friends wanted to go out of dinner, two of them which now live downtown, and I recommended Cheuvront. A half hour ride from the Mill Avenue stop and I was there. \n\nA bit chilly to sit outside but looks like excellent outdoor seating. The seating is well spaced with wine storage along the back wall and a well stocked bar in the middle (God and I both love a well-stocked bar, or at least I always say \""Thank God, they have a bar). The wait staff was cordial without being too personal (I look at dining as I'm out to eat dinner with friends, not really out to make new friends, at least until I have a few drinks but that is whole different situation....ahem). \n\nI started out the evening with a basic mojito made with 10 cane rum. A little too much sugar syrup for my taste and could use more lime but wow, served in a full size glass and a kick like a mule. One of my fellow diners had the white sangria with fresh basil and wow, that was a keeper. I'm definitely having that next time. \n\nThey have a huge selection of cheeses from around the world and we ordered the three cheese appetizer plate (the waiter asked if I wanted to pick but was happy to pick a selection for us, and I love to delegate) and the pork empanadas with orange marmalade. The cheese was good and I noticed they also have another book where you can order wine and they just pair it with cheese, how cool! The empanadas, to die for, I will order that again, ideally along with that sangria with fresh basil. \n\nDinner was the duck breast rubbed with coffee and ancho chili pepper and served on top of I don't know what but it had a crispy grilled crust on the outside and it was nice and cheesy (seemed like some sort of rice and cheese mix) on the inside, and it was wonderfully presented. I actually had the recommended wine pairing and wow, it went so well together. A rich red wine that offset the spice rub on the duck breast perfectly. \n\nWe ended the evening with coffee and desert. The coffee was okay but they should consider serving coffee roasted at the Cartel coffee lab in Tempe (which I love) as the coffee here was just...coffee...which was a shame when the rest of the meal was so great. Ideally they should bring everyone an individual french press so they can let the coffee get as strong as they like to drink it. I would also recommend a thicker cream, even whipping cream (unwhipped) since it provides that sense of luxury that goes well with this place (I had that at Mucho-Gusto and became an instant fan). \n\nFor those of the more intellectual persuasion, I noticed this place is in walking distance of the main Phoenix library. So you can go pick out a good book on a lazy Sunday and then walk over to Cheuvront for some wine and cheese and feel like the perfect elitist, before you ride the light rail home (okay, this is my ideal lazy Sunday and I've always dreamed of being just a little bit of an elitist - I'm not perfect).

Great food. Spicy. Authentic. We like the eggplant dish, sour potatoes and some kind of boiled fish tofu Szechuan sauce soup stuff. It's so spicy it makes you sweat and cry at the same time.
