Stayed 3 nights for the first time and very much enjoyed this hotel. The rooms cool down quite a bit which is great for the hot summer days since the rooms have floor to ceiling windows and the beds are outstandingly comfortable! \nThe only problem I had is that room service never serviced our room one day. Left the room at 11am; came back at 4:30p and it was still dirty. Had to call housekeeping and ask for the room to be cleaned and they were very nice and had someone there in 30 minutes. I had left a note for housekeeping to replenish the stationary, but it went unnoticed. I only had 2 envelopes but no letterhead in the drawer. I had to call and ask twice for some to be brought up and what was brought was 3 ink pens and the small note pad lol. At least it was brought in a nice bag. \n\nThe towels in the rooms are ribbed and very tough so they didn't feel very good on the body drying off from the shower.\n\nPools were nice and heated, but on the day I went swimming it was only 72 out and windy, so the heated pool felt a little chilly. The large hot tubs were very hot tho.\n\nI was asked if I was celebrating anything special upon check-in and told them it was my birthday in a few days (the reason for the trip to Vegas) and was brought up chocolate covered strawberries and little dessert cakes.\n\nIt was nice to be able to call down and let valet know to bring my car around, and everytime I parked using valet they said hello, told me their name and welcome back.

Ok so I said I probably wouldn't go back because of service. I lied. I've been back and I'll admit it seems like things may have gotten better. Who cares though, I really like this pizza. \n\nI've gotten delivery as well which was super-fast. I just can't stay away from this place and their damn thin crust Italiano pizza. It's addicting.

We were lucky enough to be here for the All Star Band (10:30 to 2:30 most nights), which I highly recommend! 11 players and guest singers that belt the blues and MoTown with power! TJ Barth is an amazing flailing blues guitarist, a terrific brass section (Sax, trump, slide trombone and a tenor sax) A key boardest with a G3 Organ and a hard driving drummer, knocking it out! Tunes were varied, but my favorite was \""Midnight Train to Georgia\"" \n\nReally mind tripping blues! \n\nThe food server was personable, fun and attentive. I nervously ordered ribs, my sexy sidekick g/f ordered fried catfish. I am happy to report we could have been in Memphis, the food was that solid. \n\nPrices were fair, no cover, and we got to keep the glasses as a souvenir. GREAT PLACE and we both hated to leave. \n\nTip : get there a bit early and sit in the padded booth stage left. Great view. Perfect stop after seeing the Beatles LOVE.

Overpriced, overcooked and unfriendly sums up the experience I have had here.\n\nWe had some tomato and (store bought) mozzarella and after that overcooked pasta in a sauce coming from a package. \n\nI asked for a glass of wine and was presented Pinot Grigio (without them asking me). I do not like PG that much, so requested to know if they had something else. After 15 minutes they presented me the wine list and I choose a Sauvignon. Instaed of giving me the SB, they gave me the PG again! I should have gotten up and walked away, but because I was with a group, I couldn't. \n\nSo if you would like to get overcharged and eat overcooked factory food, I would recommend to go here.

Ran into this place after no. 1 Boba was closed just to get some milk tea boba. Let's just say I will never go back to this place. The service was terrible the guy at the register was not very friendly and was rude to me. It's a shame because the boba was good and at a decent price but because of the way I was treated I will never come back here.

For a \""clean\"" restaurant they sure cut corners and give you nasty food. I ordered the mango mint salad and it was supposed to have grilled chicken and sweet onions, yet the meat looked like cheap cold cuts and the onions looked like they came from a jar. The \""grilled\"" chicken was literally cold cuts. The avocado looked like it has been sitting out all day. Needless to say, I won't be eating here again.

Avoid Stamp Auto if you can. Overpriced for repairs, compared to other mechanics in the area. Gave me a ridiculous price to replace a COIL. Went to another mechanic to make sure Stamp Auto's diagnosis was correct. It was indeed correct, but for the price they wanted to charge...I went to the other mechanic, received new brakes and rotors, bearings and the COIL and STILL came out 100 dollars cheaper. SMH. Avoid this overpriced auto shop if you can. \n\nI will commend them on their professional communications and willingness to look at the vehicle.

You never have to walk around hungry in vegas, and the latest addon to join in central strip is this 24-hour chain. Located inside Quad, soon to be Linq Hotel, you will see a escalator right in the middle of the Casino floor, which will bring you to the goodies upstairs. \n\nMenu will leave you with a lot of different options and new flavors. And if you never been, you should ask for some suggestions or maybe go with the marked favorites. Its a laidback atmosphere overall and you shouldnt have to bring your fanciest wig to stay safe (Although you can, since its vegas).\n\nWhichever you decide to order, you will not be served an ordinary dish. It will be presented in a magnificent way, probably somehow include waffles even if its main, and HUGE! But dont be intimidated by the size of the portion, this is the place where you dont have to be afraid of asking for a doggy bag.\n\nPrices are cheap, service is cool and the place is opened 24/7...\nHow could you complain?

this was a \""stay-cation\"" for us over the weekend. beautiful grounds and lobby area. found a great deal on priceline and couldn't pass it up. from 5-6pm, complimentary wine bar, and in the a.m., coffee and tea. \n2 large heated outdoor pools, one with a sandy beach. and hot tub. gorgeous setting, with lots of fire pits and fire stands and fire everywhere, but not in a \""hell-ish\"" sort of way. very streamlined and cool. \nthe beds were deliciously soft and plump and we got to lounge around in our pure egyption cotton leopard print robes! so playboy-ish. \nand can someone tell me what the deal is with plasma/lcd tv's? we don't own a tv, but everytime we stay in a hotel with a new tv, it takes forever for it to change channels and is always \""loading\"" something. is this normal? my old tube tv's worked twice as fast as these new-fangled contraptions....\n\nvery cool place overall. super friendly and helpful staff. we didn't need them to tell us about the area, but they more than offered.

Not any more overpriced than other places around here and we had a very sweet server who did everything perfectly. Hamachi taco starter and something else that was apparently forgettable. I had a chefs selection of sushi which included a roll which I've also forgotten the name of. I'm realizing this isn't the best of reviews but I tend to be relatively picky a d this place was all right.

First visit & I won't be back. HH food prices are overpriced in my opinion. $8 for 2 pieces of average bruschetta, no thank you ill goto Postino instead. Had a gift card they wouldn't accept on cocktails??? Who does that? It was a gift! Much better places to go & enjoy.

Unforgettable experience - salty fries and burger to saggy. We order there supposedly famous ice cream in a big container but with no lead on it. We are family of 8 from California we feel that we mistreated. The location looks decent compares to other burger chain but may be becouse its new \""Hope will be Maintained \""

Awful greasy Mexican food; margaritas from mix; no decor\n\nDon't understand what restaurant the other reviewers went to.

It was really busy late night on Saturday. It took over 30 minutes for the 3 of us to get 12 tacos because of their line system. That did not bother me very much though; it was the cashier who counted the number of tacos herself, overcharged me an extra taco, and failed to give my receipt when I paid for my food. After getting seated, I realized that had happened. I quickly went back to the cashier to let her know so I can get a free soda since I didn't want to wait in line for a taco. Due to the language barrier, a coworker of hers explained the situation. The cashier refused to admit she overcharged me and did not do a single thing to make matters better, even after I did the math and showed her the amount I was charged in my credit card. If it were an accident, that's totally understandable. I think it was intentional. On the flip side, I really enjoyed the tacos despite the ordeal. Anyhow, just watch out for this kind of thing. I know it seems silly to trip about $2, but it is the way the situation was handled that can make any meal turn sour. Luckily, there is a Tacos El Gordo in San Diego.

I can't give this place 5 stars, because they don't do anything really well, but everything was good, and we really liked the set up with the separate international food stations.\n\nMaybe instead of trying to offer everything done good, they should offer fewer items, done awesome?\n\nThe cupcake bar was fun with exotic sounding cupcakes, but the cupcakes were very ordinary.\n\nThe sushi - mediocre (after 2 bites, I didn't want any more). Too bad Yelp doesn't have 3 1/5 star option.

Went back for lunch last week, just as good in the daylight. The Vietnamese coffee after lunch was a real treat, I suggest that everyone try it!

If God weren't already, this bakery could be my religion. Pana cota- bless you. Brie sandwich with walnuts- bless you. Fresh pistachio croissant- bless you.

A friend took me for a little local experience. The place has a funky old style charm. The service was good. The portions decent. The food was tasty. It was typical American style southern Italian fare. We had a booth, which I liked, but it was near the bar with poker machines and television, however the noise wasn't so bad. Over all a good experience.

The food is just fine; i had bibimbap. But the service is horrible! horrible! I was shock by how terrible their service was! and also they impose 18% of gratuity on the bill, which doesn't make sense at all. The environment just makes me not want to go again :(

Now I know why Emo guys can fit into jeans made for tween girls, they eat at places like this. It would make sense; this must be the target audience with this location.\n\nI arrived just past noon with a co worker, luckily there was a police car parked nearby so I was not afraid to leave my car in this less than ideal neighborhood.\n\n From the outside it looks modern, trendy and bright. \n\nInside are white tables and chairs, seating is limited but their business also seemed to be a bit limited. After hearing about the specials and looking over the menu I chose the Blue Cheese Quesadilla with tomato Marmalade as I do love blue cheese. \n\nWhen my meal arrived I was shocked how small, pale and pedestrian it looked. Unlike the photo provided my quesadilla was much smaller made with an out of a package soft taco sized tortilla. Accompanying it was a small almost garnish sized dollop of rice salad on top of some baby spinach greens. The rice salad was cold, and flavorless, cold rice is rarely a good culinary choice.\n\n My quesadilla was under done and unevenly browned, there was plenty of marmalade but not too much cheese. The flavors just did not work for me even when I tried to pair it with the apple garnish. \n\nMy coworker ordered the lentil soup special of the day. It came in a small cup with a challa spinach and cheese Panini on the side. When a ~100lb female says hr portion was small you know it must be small. She enjoyed the soup, and felt the Panini was just mediocre filler. \n\nMy second drink refill, when it finally came was warm as they had no ice in the pitcher.\n\nI see no reason for me to try another meal here.

Traveled to this buffet on very high recommendation. My verdict: it is only okay, and is far, far too expensive for what you are getting. Had no problem getting a table. In fact, a good third of the tables were empty.\n\nSat down, and the server (who was excellent) asked me if I wanted to partake of the special bottle of wine for $20. I declined but just asked for a glass of the house wine. That put me back $15 (+ tip).\n\nThere was little or nothing to make a salad with. No lettuce, no tomatoes, no mushrooms, no peppers, etc. Damn, its 98 degrees outside and one can't even make a salad! And this for $38.

I am a big fan of this drive thru. It is the fastest in town!! The service is top notch and the people are always happy and fun. Obviously management is very good. Not saying other Starbucks aren't good too, I just am in favor of this location.

$1 el pastor tacos, $1chips and salsa, $2 beers. happy hour 2-6 mon-fri. Cannot beat that.

I was blown away by the show as I anticipated less. The costumes were well done, and the people in the show had the look for Medieval Times. The crowd was really into it! I was on the edge of my seat when they fought each other as they really swung their weapons at full force. You could see sparks coming from them. Great experience! I suggest you see it for yourself. I would consider it more of a kids show, but there were some \""dark\"" parts also that I did not expect. A lot of fun though that's for sure!\n\nThe food is not too bad. It was a bit plain, but like an earlier reviewer stated, the tomato soup kicked butt! I ate me a vegetarian meal also, and I have to say that the potato wedge was the best part. The tomato soup became my sauce for everything lol. I was also scared that dirt would be kicked into my food, so we all moved our food closer to us.\n\nThis show is a good deal considering you get food and a show!

The food at this buffet is gross! For $15, you get tasteless food. The Asian and Carving stations were blah. There was an abundant of desserts, but they were blah as well.\n\nI would spend more money for better food! Stay away!!!

I'm still so upset. I spent a lot of money to join this gym when it was Urban Active. I was told I could bring a guest. My husband would come with me. It was great bringing a friend and swimming or doing cardio cinema. I travel for work, and was never notified the gym was changing. Then, I was told that they lost my contract, and that I was never allowed to bring guests. Wtf? They didn't even try to work with me and were completely rude. I stopped going. I had sessions remaining with a trainer as well.

Getting the negatives out of the way first, the atmosphere is entirely unremarkable, the music is awful and too loud, and the service can be a bit spotty.\n\nHOWEVER.....the food is absolutely sublime. I've been there upwards of ten times, and have yet to have anything that was not outstanding. They make the best falafel in town, and I would be proud to serve their hummus at my next dinner party. \n\nThe prices are just right, too. Lunch seems to be an especially good deal.\n\nSo, unless you think form more important than substance, do yourself a favor and hit the Nile for your next meal out. You will not regret it.\n\nOne star withheld for the aforementioned negatives.

Decent food. Great beer. Service Is HORRIBLE. Cheers! 15 mins to get beer order. Not busy at all. Waiter dropped off beers and left. We sat with stupid looks on our faces wondering where is he. Went to bar saw him propped on bar doing nothing. Asked to take order. He said, \""where are you guys sitting?\"" LOL.

This place has the worst food on the planet. Take this as an indicator: the chips and salsa were horrible, the drinks were flat, and there was a blatant typo on the menu. Don't waste your time or money.

Ok I'm glad this calm sexy little place exists, and everything I said before remains true plus the rolls are delicious. But I have to say this: I get that on a quiet night the staff might use the tv above the bar to watch a movie, but glancing up in time to watch an astronaut vomit, then dig through that vomit and pull out a bloody tooth, was pretty unappetizing...

We went once in the spring and again recently. I don't know if we'd go back. The service was ok both times but the food has been hit or miss, first time everything was very good and the chef made the rounds to check on everyone's food. The second time almost everything was over cooked and just plain bad. To top it off, people were only being seated to the one side of the restaurant closest to the bar forcing everyone to listen to the awful wedding singer in the bar. For the prices paid, probably not worth risking another visit.

While I didn't go to CMU or Pitt, which share this beloved place as a go-to spot for good food and drink, I still frequent it when I'm in the city. The vibe is an old college town bar from the 70s or 80s. In fact, my mom, who went to Pitt, said it hasn't changed much over the years (and that's not a bad thing).\n\nThere are two reasons I go here: \n\n1. 10 dollar bottles of wine. Yes, you heard me. 10 DOLLARS. They are actually decent wines, too! The Sea Glass Pinot Noir is my favorite. \n\n2. Fast and fresh food with quality ingredients. I usually get the NY Strip steak salad and I've never once gotten sick from food allergy cross contamination. The meat is always seasoned well and tender. \n\nYou really can't go wrong with any of the sandwiches, salads or other bar fare. I admit I have not tried many entrees due to food allergies. The only reason they lost a star for me was because during my last visit, the waiter put a breadstick on top of my salad (I am allergic to it) and they had to make me a new one. Honest mistake, but I did warn him about my allergies prior to the meal. And anyway, it was more of an inconvenience for them than me! However, I didn't get sick, so life is good!

Thank God! After many trial and errors trying to find a decent Chinese restaurant that delivers, North China Restaurant fills the bill. The sesame beef, General Tso's and house lo mein are really good. Pass on the fried rice and shrimp with lobster sauce though. Those dishes aren't bad, but definitely not their best.
1
I tried again, this time I was greeted and asked, dining in or dining out. When I said dining out, immediately she took my order. Everything was smoother, folks seemed to be operating more efficiently and they were pretty quick on filling the order. The food was excellent . The only caution, last time they were packed, this time over half the restaurant was empty. The service, the food was good so this means we will go back.....

Needed a quickie for the road trip back to the desert sanctuary so I stopped in for a croissant. Well I must say their bakery was impressive. I had to have a jesuite, which is a wonderful puff pastry filled with frangipane and topped with sliced almonds and a slightly sweet egg wash. I also got a few other pastries for the next day's breakfast. So while I'm on the freeway I am having the most wonderful and frustrating eating experience. The jesuite was so good I couldn't put it down, but it was so flaky that it was getting everywhere and I couldn't deal with the crumbs because I needed to keep a hand on the wheel. So I finally gave in and just consumed it and dealt with the mess at the rest stop. I wanted to savour that little bit of heaven that reminded me of a pastry I always get at the Bellagio, when I'm in Vegas. Next time I'll enjoy it before the trip, since I can't drive and eat at the same time.

Sprinkles cupcakes is nothing special and it just goes to show marketing is everything. The service is great and the presentation of the cupcakes is nice. When you see the pretty cupcakes in their nice box you really think you are getting a gourmet cupcake like other bakeries. The red velvet cupcake was Just ok. The Carmel apple and cinnamon sugar cupcakes were muffins. They were good but I was expecting a cupcake. The chocolate vanilla with sprinkles was the best but nothing to write home about. There are tons of great bakeries out there with amazing cupcakes. I will never come back here and I hope one day more people see past all the gimics and realize sprinkles is just a fancy store selling over priced regular old cupcakes and muffins.

went here for Sunday brunch. For about $15 per person quality should b better. The pork ribs tasted like it was re-heats. Osso bucco was tender but sauce it up so it looks appetizing not like it was the heat lamp all day, the sad thing was we were here when it just opened. Crawfish and ham were good, desserts looked good but I was lo carbing it. I'm not a salad person but the grilled veges, cheese platter at sPalad bar was nice. Maybe the m resort spoiled me, but was not impressed With the orleans buffet .

The resort is pretty enough on the inside and outside, however, they closed the pool from 3:00 on to the rest of the night because a 10 minute monsoon created some \""debris\"" in the pool. There was no debris in the pool! I wonder if this happens every time a monsoon hits during AZ's summer months. Hm. The sofa bed's springs were so bad my kids had to sleep on the floor. The only WIFI available was in the lobby. Only restaurant on site opens at 11 am. So don't forget your own cream and sugar if you want coffee in the morning, because your room is the only place you'll get it. We checked out a day early because we didn't want to sleep there another night risking no pool access and a bad night's sleep for the kids - the front desk didn't even inquire if everything was okay. Again, it's a pretty resort and the rooms are decorated nicely but I guess it's the lack of customer service that has forever turned me away from this place.

The good: unique, lively decor\nThe bad: so far, all of the food. Went for lunch Friday with a friend. The wings were over cooked and lacked flavor. My friend gave the soup and salad 2 thumbs down. \n\nIn addition they make flour tortillas with a hint of corn, and the server claimed this was the authentic way. Never seen this in a South American restaurant operated by South Americans. They make their chips the same way, and thus more closely resemble pita chips than tortilla chips. No es bueno.\n\nNear-average for American-Mexican food but needs work.

This club sucks!!! I walked in and stayed 5 mins. The doormen are disrespectful!!! They let my girl go right in and tried to make me wait, I guess he was trying to flirt with her. I ended up moving a party of 50 people from LAX to club hopping the strip.

I wish I could give this dump 0 stars. 14 bucks a person for horrible food every thing tastes like it's a day old. There was a pinch of cream cheese in the ragoons, chicken on a stick was way over cooked , the sushi was by far the most disgusting pieces of banana's in sushi ... wtf? Gross, don't waste you're time or money going here. also their ice cream is a cooler like you would find bait in at a sporting goods store and inside they fill cups with freezer bunt ice cream. If you want Asian buffet at half the price go to the krazy buffet.

I live in Summerlin and everytime I drive down Charleston I say to myself, I need to try this place! I finally did and I wasn't impressed. I went around 6pm and when I walked in, it was not that busy. 70% of the tables were occupied and no line. As I looked over the menu, everything sounded pretty good. I walked up and decided to go with a fettuccine alfredo with chicken +broccoli (add .50), side caesar salad and breadsticks... I was hungry!!! I wish I would have checked in before I ordered, because I would have gotten those breadsticks for free. DARN! I also got a soda and with tax, my bill was about $16. For an entree, salad, breadsticks and soda, I didn't feel like I overpaid.... I would say prices are in line with places like Panera. But, it's not a full service restaurant, so some would debate the prices.\n\nI will say that this place is pretty sexy inside. Faux leather banquettes with the reclaimed wood feel. Chalkboards fill the restaurant with words like \""organic chicken\"" \""THE BEST\"" and other words that try to make this place something that it's not..... And that would be a place for foodies.\n\nMy meal arrived and that's when everything went downhill.... Fettuccine was bland, definitely needed more cheese, salt.... SOMETHING! As I'm eating my rubbery processed chicken, I'm looking at the chalkboard that says fresh organic chicken.... I'm in this industry, I know what fresh grilled chicken tastes like, and the chicken they serve here is NOT that. The breadsticks were not that soft and barely had any garlic flavor..... The salad was pretty tasty though. The dressing had a nice garlic bite to it and the croutons were fresh and crunchy. \n\nMac Shack really needs to think about sourcing fresh ingredients, because the chicken in my fettuccine was processed and the broccoli was frozen and microwaved/steamed. This place needs to focus on transparency because it's trying to be something that it's not. You're a modern looking Panera with slightly higher prices. I will give you one more chance in about 3 months....

Among my friends, this place seems to have a bit of a cult following. Most of the people I know who have been there consider it their favorite bar in the city. I haven't drunk the Kool-Aid, so to speak, but it's a pretty good bar, especially when it's warmer out and you can sit outside and marvel at the relative quiet on the block, especially when compared to Crescent St. just a stone's throw away.

I took my Son's broken iPod Touch here to be repaired. The cables that controlled the volume and power buttons were bad. They had the device for over 3 weeks, but that was because they had to ship parts from China.\n\nThe guys here were pretty cool and the iPod worked just fine when we picked it up. They would have received 5 Stars, but they didn't keep me apprised of what was going on. I had to call every few days to get a status. It would have been nice if they said \""We had to order a part from China, it could be a couple of weeks\""....instead they just said \""We're still working on it, it's not ready yet\"".\n\nI'd come back to save money on buying a new device.\n\nReturn Factor - 85%

I thought the Palazzo would be awesome. I was wrong. Some of these things are little things, but when taken in combination, are too much. Some are big things.\n\n1. Worst thing was the smoke smell in the room. Our first room smelled like smoke. I asked for a different room. They apologized, and put me in a different room, with a strip view for the inconvenience. They said they cannot control what people do in their nonsmoking rooms (but they can, they can charge a cleaning fee). Our second room was even worse, but i figured that was just the way it was, and wasn't going to complain again.\n\n2. Our shower obviously hadn't been cleaned. The first time we used it, we were stepping on two plastic covers from disposable razors. That grossed me out. I called housekeeping, asking them to clean it properly, was passed to a manager, who seemed irritated by my complaint. (and can I just say, I'm really not a complainer, but when I spend $250-300 plus tax for a room, I expect more).\n\n3. Bed was incredibly hard. Couch was very comfy, I actually thought about sleeping there. :)\n\nOther minor things:\n1. Only got our newspaper about half the days\n2. Only two drinking glasses in the entire room. Which we used for cocktails. Had to drink water out of wineglasses. \n3. Paid for the prestige level, wasn't really worth it. Free open bar at night was nice. Breakfast had a huge spread, but not much in the way of savory items like eggs or cheese.\n4. Despite high end finishes in the room (marble) they were poorly constructed. Corner shelf in shower looked like it was about to fall off. Knob holding the towel bar on the glass shower door fell off.

Overpriced for breakfast. \n\nWeird seating arrangement\n.

The service has been much better recently. I've been seated promptly and my server has gotten my tangerine juice out right away.

While the food is ok, who wants to pay $15 for a roast beef sandwich. Jasons Deli is a much better deal.

Great chicken and fries. (deserts are good as well!) Huge portions - low price. What else could you want?

When the Beautiful Carin and I lived back in the lovely Portland suburb of West Linn (what views from our house!...Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helen's, the Willamette River and southeast Portland spread out below us...King of the World views! :), we had a neighbor that had approx. 117 miles of toy train track in his backyard!\n\nHe spent tens of thousands of dollars building, repairing, maintaining and expanding his train set (or \""layout\"" as he liked to call it).\n\nIt was incredible...there were waterfalls, forests, mountains, cities...you name it...he had created a tiny alternative America, based on his vision of where the trains should go and what America should look like from the train:)\n\nHe was completely crazy...in a very nice way...but crazy never the less (and the main reason that I never wanted my money in US Bank, where he was a corporate EVP:)\n\nWe've all known somebody like that...and we've all looked at their trains and said, \""Ooh, cool!\""...we thought they were nice, but \""ooh, cool\""?...even I didn't think the backyard trains were cool, and I'm not the coolest guy on the planet...Scottsdale, maybe, but not the whole planet:)\n\nMSRRP is like that backyard layout in the hills south of Portland, but ever so greatly enhanced and beamed to Scottsdale, complete with big train sets, BBQ pits and pavilions, acres of grass and patios to lie around on and (currently), a little music to listen to on Sunday evenings!\n\nIn this case, however, the layout wasn't built by that nutty banker in Portland...it was built by the son of a banker from Manhattan, Guy Stillman (I'll presume that Guy wasn't nutty, for the sake of this review...but...train sets).\n\nGuy inherited his money from the McCormick Farm Implements family (isn't it great to have more money than you can possibly spend...it really lets you do some interesting things:), and he donated the park property, trains, etc. to the Scottsdale Railroad and Mechanical Society for a park for the city, along with some dough to keep things up!\n\nOver the years, the Scottsdale Railroad and Mechanical Society have managed to use those gifts to craft one of the nicest little parks anywhere!\n\nThe park is always clean and well kept...the people who manage the parks are wonderfully nice and efficient...they are always adding new attractions, and they have plenty of shady places to sit, as well as nice clean places to get a burger or hot dog and a cold soda or an ice cream sandwich:)\n\nI will go so far as to suggest that MSRRP is where you want to be on a lazy, late spring Sunday night:\n\n* Watching all the parents and kids play catch and dance to the music and run and ride around the park\n* Watching the spontaneous bocce ball games break out over by one of the picnic pavilions\n* Spreading out your blanket for a Sunday picnic supper on the acres of lush lawns that make up the entire park\n* Listening to some really wonderful musical entertainment...for free...on the bandstand at the center of the park\n* Drinking a nice Malbec, while you listen to the band play and chat with the people on the next blanket\n* Looking up at the stars and letting the evening, the warmth, the comfort and the music wash over you\n\nIt's Americana, writ large...everything you think you want to remember about your youth is here...from the trains and acres of soft grass to run on, to the twilight picnic suppers and a band, playing up there on the bandstand in the middle of the park, helping you drift along on a wave of nostalgia.\n\nA little more of the kind of entertainment and relaxation the MSRRP offers wouldn't hurt any of us:)

I came here to get a minor issue fixed. My wife's iPhone 4 had a crack in the back glass casing. I Brought it in and it was repaired as I waited in about 10 minutes. It only cost $30 and with a Yelp checkin it was $25.

The hotel room was fairly clean, bed was comfy. We had a few problems with the room though. The thermostat didn't work. They said they fixed it but they didn't. Very hot stuffy nights. It stayed 80 and above in the room. Not cool. The bath tub didn't have a stopper so they had to fix that too. The tv remote was missing but didn't call for that. I just got tired of calling. And Harrah's does not have wireless! We won't stay here again. But we will go back to dine at Ruth Chris, which is located in the casino. It was awesome!

I was really impressed with this place when I first walked in the door. This changed really fast after placing my order.\nFirst; $21 for two small sandwiches and two sodas. WAY OVERPRICED!\nSecond, the cool surf board table were inviting but the table were dirty and covered in trash and red baskets so we didn't get to sit at one. \nThird, these were two of the sloppiest sandwiches I have ever seen. My sandwich fell apart as soon as I picked it up. The bacon was as hard as a rock. It actually hurt my teeth to crunch it. The cream cheese that came in the sandwich was hard and clumpy, not spread like it should have been. I'm sure the sandwich would have tasted better had it not been for the burnt bacon and the frozen cream cheese.\nMy last, and biggest problem was the lack of professionalism from the employees. I only saw one girl working. The others were standing around, goofing off. Three of the girls were drinking a beer at the bar.\nI'm not interested in eating at a restaurant where the employees don't care about their customers.\nI will not return to this establishment. Too bad, because it looks really cool and has tons of potential.

There are no toilets in here!!\n\nThis is one of the first things that struck me about this Next. It's huge, yet there are no toilets. I would have thought there would be toilets.\n\nNext clothes sort of guarantee quality though, the years of perseverance has taught us that, if anything. As I've said about other Next's, the potential is there but it's just lacking that va va voom...the x factor......that special thing. It's getting there though.

the room facility is so old. The bath sink was clogged. We asked for fix it in the early morning, but they didn't do anything after we went back room in the evening. Their manager said they left message in our room and waited for our response. I already gave them our cellar number, but they stupid waited for our call back from the room.\n\nThey spent half of hour worked on it. Finally told me they couldn't fix it and asked us to go to front-desk to change room. Unfortunately we had to go to see the show after 2o min and asked they gave us the new room keys as soon as possible. They told us they were busy and we had to wait in the queue. Finally we missed the first 30 min of the show.

One of the city's best sources for Italian cheeses, especially Parmesans and Pecorinos of all types. Good variety, top-notch quality. They also operate as a full-service Italian delicatessen, with pastas, charcuterie, antipasti, and biscotti. Friendly and knowledgeable.

I was not wanting to spend any money today -- I was just walking around Kierland Commons, when a nice young man offered me a delicious tea sample. I thought, why not buy some tea? I wasn't told any of the prices beyond \""50 cents a cup.\"" $65 for a pound of tea? Really? I was in shock but things were moving so fast that I staggered out of there $215 later thinking, if they had told me up front what the price of the tea was, I would never have entered into this transaction. I could have bought 100 large jugs of diet peach Snapple for that price. 100! Now I'm pissed off and unhappy, worrying about how I'm going to explain to my husband how I accidentally spent $215 on tea. I'm glad these reviews are here so I don't feel like such an idiot. I'll go back and return this stuff when it cools down a bit later. Thanks, Teavana, for a disorienting and stressful experience. Your company sucks!

Talk about a well-run business. This is the type of jewelry store that you walk into and just feel welcome. Their staff is more than knowledgeable on every single product that they have available.\n\nMy parents have been customers for sometime now and I myself have now become a customer. They will take care of you for years to come from the very minute that they walk in there.\n\nMy family always deals with Lyndell when we go there and what a pleasant guy to talk to. He certainly knows his stuff and will be more than happy to answer any questions that you have. He made certain to even do the simple things such as give me extra cleaning cloths so that my purchase always looks in tip-top shape.\n\nThis is a place where you certainly will be taken care of and nothing will be forgotten.

I was in Phoenix for the weekend and stopped at about 6 breweries total. This was my favorite, hands down. I had a flight of all their beers (plus 3 seasonal offerings) and enjoyed them all. Normally not a fan of the Scottish styles but the Kilt Lifter surprised me. The service was quick, friendly, and the food was amazing. \n\nI will definitely be coming back to Four Peaks when I'm back in Phoenix.

We had a drink at the bar, then dinner for my fiancee's birthday. The drinks were great, and the bartender was efficient and personable. Dinner was awesome, we had the teriyaki steak lettuce wraps for an appetizer and steaks for dinner. The food was fantastic, service was a little slow. However it was a Saturday night and busy, so that's probably why. We liked it overall, and would eat there again.

XS is the newest (and hottest) club in Vegas. With that said, there are insane crowds and massive swarms of people trying to get in--it's actually incredibly overwhelming. One of my friends knew some of the promoters and luckily, after only 20 minutes of waiting, we got in (yes, 20 minutes is short!) for free!\n\nAfter entering the doors and walking into the club, I was in complete awe. XS is absolutely gorgeous and I actually wasn't sure if what I was seeing was real--I thought there was a mirror! There's a semi-indoor area with 2 bars at either end and is lined with a ridiculous amount of tables all surrounding the large dance floor. The outdoor area has beautiful cabanas and white couches around the circular pool, bar, and casino area. There are also tables on an upper level for VIPs and bottle service.\n\nThe DJ had a habit of playing half a song by an artist that was mixed into another half of the same artist's hit songs. That way, you never got tired of the music and yet you were able to enjoy more music by your fave artists!\n\nAs much as I wanted to give the place 5 stars, I couldn't because of the hordes of people! The venue was definitely beyond capacity and when we were waiting to get into the club, the door guys were being paid off to let groups of people in. That however, didn't include the price of getting into the club which is $30 for guys and $20 for girls. Inside, it was impossible to get from the restroom to the bar without being elbowed in painful places and being sandwiched by smelly, sweaty and drunk people.\n\nAt one point we were getting ready to leave and this guy splashed his drink in a girl's face. Two guys were face to face ready to fight and next thing you know--BAM! One guy gets clocked in the face and the momentum from that punch literally pushes 10 people back, squishing my best friend into this platform area with poles. Luckily, she wasn't hurt, but come ON now!\n\nThe drill sargeant in the restroom also provided for an interesting experience. There's a nicer lady at the entrance that directs you where to go, she even says \""hi!\"" and smiles at you. But, the lady at the end of the stalls has an angry face on and yells \""NEXT!\"" everytime a door swings open, even though you can SEE when a stall becomes available. She makes the restroom a little uncomfortable because you hear \""NEXT!\"" every 2 seconds and feel rushed to pee fast!\n\nIf it weren't so cold outside, I think the crowds would have been more evenly dispersed throughout the indoor and outdoor areas. I would LOVE to come back to XS when the hype has died down...

It was the first time my boyfriend and I went and it seemed like they have quite a few repeat customers. It was impressive to see the hostess/servers interact with the customers, however... I must say that we felt kinda unspecial because of that. (i don't know if that's fair to knock them on though...)\n\nTuna tartare was eh. The steaks were good and the lemon cake was delicious. We couldn't finish our meal, so we packed all the leftovers ate it over 2 meals the next day. Still delicious.\n\nOne thing that made our night was the music. They had a pianist sing and play the piano. It really created a classy and relaxing atmosphere.

I wasn't too impressed even though I heard this buffet was amazing. It was nice though because we had a group of 7 that was comped from gambling credit and we were led to a table with very little wait. \n\nWe got in around 3 pm...ate the lunch portion and then had the dinner as well. Tri tip was probably the most impressive food there. Crab legs were good and plentiful. The dessert display is also very impressive...But what can you expect from a buffet? I wish there was real sushi though...

I have been wanting to try this place out for some time. I had some vendors who came into town, and this is where we ended up for dinner.\n\nIt really wasnt what I expected. It kind of through me for a loop. I mean, its in a very run down neighborhood (Signs say park at your own risk) with bars over windows and doors. You get in, and it looks kind of average, nothing to hint that there are some food gods working behind the wall.\n\nThey pretty much do tequilla only here. They have a tequilla list with over 100 tequillas on it. I opted for a simple margaritta with some tequilla I have never heard of and some fresh agave nectar. Wow it was good!\n\nWe got the guacamole appetizer, and it was fantasic. All fresh made right at the table. Next we moved onto the shrimp quesedillas. This was kind of an insight as to how complex these meals were going to be. The shrimp quesadillas were very good, so much so I didnt even realize I accidently ate the shrimp tail! \n\nLooking at the menu for dinner, its definatley not your everyday mexican food your going to see here. This is kicked up a notch. I would probably call this gourmet mexican food. Never have I seen such menu items, where everything sounds so fantastic. It was like I was in mexican food heaven! I had the special of the night which was a basted lobster tail in tequilla grilled over an open wood flame, 6oz filet mignon with a langustine/chorizo goat chease mixture on top, and grilled vegetables. I think it was their way of doing the filet 'oscar style'. It was extremely good. Everything turned out fantastic.\n\nMy only complaint was parking. It was pretty tight to begin with. Our server was strictly to the point, no lolly gagging around which actually turned out to be good in this instance for us since this was a business dinner.\n\nWould definatley visit again!

I want to thank the French for three things: Pastries, Food and Fashion. The first of which landed right here in Las Vegas. I just found Las Vegas's signature pastry here at Baguette Cafe. It's the strawberry muffin. I'm only writing this review as a plea to keep the seasonal strawberry muffin permanent. PLEEEEAAAASE make it a permanent item! McRib people can understand this plea. \n\nI'm kind of a pastry fanatic. I appreciate the level of preciseness that comes with pastries as my wife is quite the baker. So when it's holidays time, we jumped at the idea of ordering 2 dozens of these strawberry goodness.\n\nIf you like strawberry shortcake, just imagine this to be 10x better. My one knock of this place is that the service is incredibly slow. But if you're not in a rush, you're in for quite a treat.

Mr. Lee's a really great guy to talk to. He's been cutting hair in the Waterloo area for about 12 years now, and his experience will be seen on your haircut. With a down-to-earth barber, unique place, and great haircuts,, Mr. Lee's Hair Fashions is definitely a better alternative to barbers near UW. You can take the 200 iExpress towards the Ainslie Terminal, then stop at Grand River hospital and walk 10 minutes.

Arrived in Vegas early in the morning and was hungry for something to warm my stomach. We had rented a car so we decided to go to the Asian plaza to check out the restaurants. We were there at 9:30am so everything was closed except for this establishment. We took a chance and tried their combination stir fried noodle with veggies, chicken & shrimp and a bowl of soup noodles with the thin flat rice noodles with beef balls, shrimp, calamari, and chicken. Service was a little slow and I got my soup noodles way before hubby got his stir fried noodles. The flavor of the soup was good but a little oily, noodles were soft, and they gave a decent amount of seafood. I enjoyed the stir fried noodles also - the crunchy noodles, meat, and vegetables was covered with gravy. \n\nThe place was crowded for a Saturday morning and people seemed to gravitate to this place for their soup noodles. It's lively and the service was friendly but a little on the slow side. Prices were decent: range $7-$10.

No air conditioning, we weren't greeted or acknowledged at all by the one employee wearing headphones, every flavor of yogurt we sampled tasted like ice and sugar and came out melted, aaaand the toppings were stale and disgusting. No thanks!!

Love, love, LOVE this bakery! I don't really get the other reviews about the limited selections. It is a fresh bakery with the emphasis on the fresh. That means that enough is baked for the day with little to no leftovers. No refrigerated day old goodies here.\n\nThe owner/lady behind the counter is warm, welcoming and genuine. She will make you a perfect cup of coffee to go with your selection, and takes pride in doing so.\n\nAhhh.... the selections! The lightest Napoleons you will ever try! The lemon cookies everyone has yelped about? Unbelievable! More like little lemon cakes...so tender and delicious. Peanut butter cookies...just perfect. The flaky cherry pinwheel was amazing, with tart/sweet cherries instead of the sicky sweet ones you usually come across.\n\nWe sipped our coffee in a corner on comfortable chairs while we nibbled our treats and watched the customers come and go. Nearly everyone was greeted by name or some form of recognition. (she remembers your favs) One gentleman took an enormous amount of time ordering a special cake, and never was he rushed or made to feel uncomfortable as she helped him while simultaneously serving new customers as they arrived. Every aspect of his caked was sketched out in painstaking detail. My husband and I agreed the next cake we order will be made here! (Freeds, our old standby has disappointed lately)\n\nWe will be making this our weekly coffee and dessert stop, and Dainty Cakes has definitely won our vote for Best of Las Vegas!

She got le-e-e-gs, she knows how to use it. I'm talking about the scantily clad waitresses in the gambling area. They stick out especially in this well lighted, colorful casino south of the strip. Like most casinos, most of the waitresses are beautiful, and can really enhance even an ugly man's gambling experience. At least there is beauty while losing money. Obviously, the layout is such that you are tempted to gamble if you eat, sleep, or be entertained there. After all, your loss is the house's gain, wherever you are in Vegas. \n\nWe stayed here on a work conference. Being off the strip is great and horrible. if you're like me, the strip is OK, but it's old hat because I've been visiting relatives here monthly for about 4 years. You can enjoy a meal and some entertainment by old pop music and comedic artists, hang out at the bar, go watch a movie, go bowling, or people watch. \n\nThen turn in to your pretty quiet, nice rooms with ironing board, flat screen TV, loveseat, and table. They have no bedspread - yay! Most bedspreads even in the fanciest hotels have \""body fluids\"" residue on them. Gag but not here. The bathroom has willow and green tea something...I guess it was shampoo, but it looked like tea. Definitely a chick ordered those. There is a hair dryer and adjustable climate controls, This room was be fine for most single travelers or couples. I like that they make you show your room key as you approach the elevators. They also have security cameras on every floor. \n\nIf you're a young person or couple, and you want some touristy action, this place sucks. Once you step outside, there is nothing. If you want to watch and be watched, you are better off staying at the strip at double the price as this room I'm in. There is a shuttle that goes to the strip, though. \n\nThey charge $13 a day for internet access. Too pricey in my opinion, so I am taking off a half star for that; I also am taking off a half star because you have to walk so far through the casino and by so many smokers to get into the hotel section. \n\nWe decided not to eat here, but they have a few places to eat, including a coffee shop and a buffet. We decided to eat at the Italian place across the street. A co worker says the pool is pretty cool. There is also a gift shop and snack bar near the elevator. Lots of people were buying liquor - maybe the gambling isn't so good here? It's all just okay - a decent hotel if you mainly want to gamble and sleep. So why 4 stars? At the $39 group room rate for the middle of the week in May, even divey hotels near the strip can't touch this price. (And I wouldn't touch some of those divey motels without gloves.)

This show was such a sham. Nothing the guy asked the people on stage to do was remotely funny and the people on stage were clearly faking everything. Waste of time and money.

Really cute shop with friendly workers. They have a lot of options for your nails and actually listen to what you want done. It's a little expensive though, so if you're looking for a cheap gel-manicure, then this is not the place for you. They do 3D designs though, which I favor and appreciate finding a good shop that does these!

The service wasn't the best even though it was a Tuesday night and it was not packed. The servers weren't the most hospitable and that really matters when I'm spending my money. Since it was a \""one night only\"" affair I indulged in the rib tips - big accident. Gross and waaaaaaaaaaay too much fat. Not the kind of rib tips I'm used to. I think asked for the actual ribs of the pig and they were ok. The rub was not impressive, the meat did not fall off the bones, and the sauce was nothing special. I guess Chicago kicks butt for ribs because Urbana, IL is highly overrated. I've seriously had better.

To my knowledge, finding a burger place that delivers is rare. It has to be exceedingly rare to find one that cooks some great food. Luckily for me, i found that place. I recommend the Texas Burger with onion rings. It's awesome!\n\nHere is a pdf I created for their menu: http://bit.ly/xjqgj4

My biggest regret with my surgery and Dr. Wellish's office?? Not doing it sooner!! I originally put down a deposit for my surgery 3 years ago and just finally had the surgery in December, 2013. I was really scared about the process, but in the end it was extremely simple and pain free. Unfortunately I didn't qualify for LASIK because of my astigmatism so I had to have the PRK surgery, which has a longer healing time. I went in for my one month follow up this week and my vision is so great that I received a notification to the DMV that I no longer have a restricted license due to vision correction!\n\nAll in all, the experience was wonderful. Dr. Wellish spent over an hour with me going over the differences for PRK vs. LASIK and discussing why he recommended PRK for me. I didn't feel rushed or like just a number, I felt like I was his only patient that day. His goal was to satisfy my concerns before moving forward and he took the time necessary to do that. The day of the surgery I was given some medication to take the edge off and my eyes were numbed, so I didn't feel much of anything. In a matter of minutes it was over.\n\nI've been back to his office several times for follow ups and have been impressed by his facility and staff. From the front desk staff to his support team (other doctors and nurses), everyone is friendly and competent. \n\nOne note on the cost. I imagine some people are detered by the cost, I know I was. I found Dr. Wellish to be a bit more expensive than other doctors in town. I'm glad I took my optometrist's advice and went with him. There's a reason he costs more--he's the best in town, bar none. I think paying a bit more for such an important surgery is a no-brainer. Why mess around and take chances with something as important as your vision??\n\nHighly, highly recommend Dr. Wellish. If you are even considering LASIK surgery, GO FOR IT! It's one of the best things I've ever done and I'm so grateful to Dr. Wellish and his staff for their work.

I read the positive article in LV Weekly, and was excited to try this place since it is so close to home. I was impressed by the atmosphere when I walked in, but my positive mood soon took a turn for the worse. The teenage kids behind the counter were nice enough, but when my GF ordered a featured chicken chorizo sandwich after five minutes of debating, only then were we told that they were out of chicken chorizo, lol. After ordering, we stood in front of the register at the opposite end of the counter only to be ignored by a woman (who I can only assume was Lulu herself), while she filed receipts, moved things around and belittled the staff. When I finally got attention from one of the teens behind the counter to ask the price of a specific bottled soda, no one knew. The teen cashier asked the stern Lulu lady, who ignored us (even though we were still right in front of her) and snapped a vague answer back to the cashier. The poor girl cashier looked so scared to get a clear answer from this Lulu lady, that she told me the price was \""between $1.50 and $3.00\"". I put the soda back. When Lulu finally acknowledged us, my GF presented a coupon. Apparently Lulu wasn't ready for it and snapped, \""yeah, I see it\"". So not only does she treat her staff like isht, she follows suit with customers. Now to the food. We were the only order working, and it took 15 minutes to make two sandwiches. It may have had something to do with Lulu charging up to the teen male cook and belittling him out in the open about not following her instructions. My roast beef sandwich was poor quality and impossible to chew. Very fatty. The bread was good, but the side was barely something you could consider a salad. Out of about six employees trying to act busy, not one asked us how our food was. I'm guessing by the guilty looks silently screaming \""help me\"" I kept getting from the staff, none wanted to be fired by the evil old lady who runs the place. My guess is the Metro Pizza owners gave grandma a project to keep her busy, and out of their hair. Good for them, bad for us.

David Hannum is shown to be correct yet again.\n\nThere are indeed containers; but, it is certainly not a park.\n\nDowntown Container Park is as much as a \""Park\"" as Downtown Summerlin is \""Downtown[;]\"" as much as Phineas Taylor Barnum actually believed that his Cardiff Giant was an actual petrified man; or, as much as Tony \""Montgomery Burns\"" Hsieh actually cares about anything besides dolla dolla bills yaaaa'll. \n\nThis cesspool is more akin to an unnecessary \""Mardi Gras of consumerism\"" than any park. In the old days, malls had the cojones to call themselves malls; and, at least, they respected the community enough to keep the cultish nonsense down to a bare minimum. \n\nOne must at least respect that at the time Boulevard, Meadow, and Fashion Show malls went up, developers were not so Orwellian to bastardise the naming of malls by leaving the term mall out of their titles.\n\nThis place is rather on downslope of the mediocre side, and naming it a \""Park\"" won't change it. So, cease the backpatting party, put the llama on a cross gold pendant down, and get real. Downtown Container Mall barely avoids the one-star. \n\nDetailed reviews of individual listings from Container Mall: \nBig Ern's BBQ: TBD\nCheffini's: TBD\nPinches Tacos: TBD\nSasasweets Chillspot: TBD\nSimply Pure: TBD\nThe Perch: TBD

So there I was in Phoenix on a sunny Saturday afternoon. I had just met with an old friend for a much too quick lunch before she had to go on a field trip. Guess they still do those in college, who knew?! We parted ways when I received a call from her that it was open to anyone and we could continue catching up... sure I said, as I love exploring random interests.\n\nI board the bus with my friend and a group of Sustainability degree seeking students. We soon find ourselves in Glendale, AZ in a very normal neighborhood in front of a very normal, clean, green landscaped house... nothing screamed farm at me and the only reason I knew we were in the correct place (besides the fact the bus stopped here) was a tent which said Urban Farm on the side.\n\nHe was very into himself and the conversation was more Q and A style than anything else. Great as it involves the crowd however I felt more educational topics could have been covered. It felt at times as though he were speaking down to a group of second graders instead of the college students and adults in front of him.\n\nDiverse plants and trees were explored as were different ways to cultivate. Also loved the chickens. \n\nAn interesting time for those interested in the not so average.

I really like it here, primarily because with Grand Lux's expansive menu of comfort food items and fine consistent cooking, each visit can be a different dining exploration. \n\nOn my latest foray, I enjoyed the magnificently sour complimentary Sourdough Bread with slathered butter before starting in earnest with lovely colorful and toothsome Seared Rare Ahi, that came with seasoned Bean Sprouts, Pickled Cucumbers, carrots, and Sichuan Sauce. And, Diane's Pot Roast-Cheese Fries with Gravy featured melt-in-your-mouth beefy strands of Pot Roast and great brown Pot Roast Gravy, along with Mild Cheddar Cheese, ladled over tasty French Fries, for a rather unique appetizer.\n\nShaking Beef with Green and Red Onions and a warm Lemongrass-like sauce included tender pieces of Beef Tenderloin prepared medium rare at my request. Mixed with a large mound of Steamed White Rice it was quite delectable! Meanwhile, Diane enjoyed her Gnocchi covered with customized Alfredo Sauce.\n\nService was topnotch throughout the meal, and being seated in a comfortable booth with hard driving music playing in the background provided a nice ambiance for our late night dinner.\n\nOnce again xxxx-1/2 stars overall!

I went into here this past Friday thinking to myself chicken and donuts how unique is that; makes one think of a LoLo's spinoff. I spent rounded up $9.00 on a chicken thigh and drumstick with a cucumber salad. Not only was it overpriced for those two pieces, but it look as if the chicken was cooked too fast in old oil and not long enough. When I bite into the chicken it had an aftertaste and was pink with a tinge of blood inside. I expected more from an establishment serving food. When I tried to contact them shortly after the blood tinged chicken my call went unanswered after several attempts.

I Like it!\n\nThe Orleans Arena is a smaller arena and less \""grand\"" thank the MGM , the Joint and other facilities in Vegas. Here is what I like and why it deserves a 4 star:\n\na. Parking - Very easy and close to the venue. Unlike the MGM and the Hard Rock / Joint, where you have to park with casino parking, the Orleans has plenty of surface parking adjacent to the entrance of the actual arena.\n\nb. Skyboxes - The venue has sky boxes that are permanent and can be used for great entertainment and viewing of events.\n\nc. Seating - Very nice, comfortable and good views. \n\nThe only issue with it not being a 5 star is I would minus a star because the entrance is a bit tight and you can easily be exposed to the outdoors if you are parking in the outdoor parking lot. If it is 35 degrees in Vegas, You are going to be very cold.\n\nGreat place, check it out if the opportunity exists.....

Other than the ambiance of being a Rock & Roll restauarnt, this place isn't good. The food sucks.\n\nI came in for a birthday party with 6 people, and not one of us actually enjoyed our food. We had called ahead (2 weeks) to reserve a table before a game. When we got there, the table had not even been set up. We were 20 minutes later than planned getting to our table, and we missed 1 entire 1st inning and the top of the 2nd because it took so long to get our food.

Nah so much Hulas. Nah so much. While I appreciate their bar, I don't appreciate the food. The entrees were not good. The only thing edible was the tuna poke. That's about it. Try aloha kitchen, it worth the drive.

I heard about this place from someone and decided to try it despite some iffy reviews. I love Chinese food. So I was incredibly disappointed when this food was so unappealing. The rice has no flavor. The sauces are just sugar, no other flavor covering flavorless chicken. The prices are not worth that disappointment and I really don't mind paying for food.

Love, love, love this hotel!\n\nI usually come here often when I'm in Vegas. [except when I decide I'm in the mood for trying out new hotels] This is my go-to hotel because the prices are GREAT, it is extremely relaxing, the service is great, and the room is amazing.\n\nAlthough this hotel is off the strip, I honestly don't mind because it only takes 2-3 minutes to visit that area. It is also extremely quiet and relaxing! I love how it is only valet, which is free of charge and there is NO CASINO! Extra bonus. None of that noise or smoke when you walk in. It's just instant relaxation.\n\nI usually stay in the Princess Suite, but I don't mind staying in the Solitaire Suite which does not have a balcony or a washer and dryer. The room is huge considering the price, which is fabulous. The kitchen is quite large and I love how everything is provided; there are plates, cups, mugs, glasses, silverware, a kettle, coffeemaker, spatulas, just all the works. \n\nThe bathroom is great, clean and has a jetted tub. Great after a long day. The beds are quite comfortable, although not the best. There is also a sofa bed, which isn't the best, but will do if you have extra people along.\n\nThe service is okay; the valet and check-in staff aren't super friendly, they get the job done quickly though. The room-service staff and cleaning staff are much more friendly and often strike conversations with you. \n\nThe decor in the lobby is gorgeous and the pool area has fire-pits and a partial indoor swimming pool. They also have gorgeous relaxing outdoor beds and the outdoor furniture there is beautiful! The furniture inside the hotel room isn't eye-catching, but it works and is refreshing.\n\nOverall, this hotel is relaxing and gorgeous. The rooms are large and extremely inexpensive considering that you get a kitchen, a nice bathroom, a living area, free valet, and amenities many other hotels do not have such as a washer and drier and a full-sized refrigerator. This place is definitely great if you are here for long business trips or are staying for more than a week!

Best middle eastern food I've ever had. \ngrocery/ restaurant. \nShish-kabob plate with a rosewater lemonade is my standby.

Worst service ever had i got there two hours before my flight and didn't even get to order!! The saddest part is I was seated right next to where they put in the orders and other staff didn't even ask if I was ready to order and to top it off they tried to seat me at a dirty table to start off .. The waitress didn't have a name tag that I could read so I can't name drop but this is truly the worst experience i ever had with California pizza which is sad because they actually have really good pizza.

We recently stayed at the Vdara, because we received a deal that was just way too good to pass up. It smelled wonderful!!\n\nThe rooms were super trendy. I guess you can request either a regular room when you check in or one with wall separating the bed from the rest of the room. We chose the latter. It was awesome!\n\nService was great. \n\nMy only complaints are that the limited dining choices and the fact that it has no casino, which kind of makes it feel less Vegas-like. Obviously, there are those to whom that will appeal to. I'm just not one of them.

Wow!! Talk about unprofessional. I had the worst experience dealing with Maria. My wife and I had called in about a $50 charge which we should not have been charged for. We attempted to discuss the charge and payment options but Maria continuously put us on hold without permission then would hang up. I called back and she ranted at me for 2 minutes straight without allowing me to say a word \""...and if you don't want to pay it then don't\""!! And hung up again. We called back to speak to the owners to try to resolve the dispute professionally and she had another girl answer the phone who then told us she doesn't work \""in the back\"" and can't help us. I could clearly hear Maria coaching her on what to say in the back. Then instructed her to hang up on us again. Never allowing us to discuss the original problem. It was very confusing and the worst experience I have had with any establishment. I definitely wouldn't ever go back. And to think we were going to go here for our kids braces. They just gave up thousands of dollars of dental work for $50.

I finally made it!!!! I took my friend Derek, as we have been pursuing the spiciest foods in Vegas and had yet to be happy with the results. We had excellent service here (5 different waitstaff helping us out and refilling our iced teas, cleaning trash, feeding Derek's sugar packet habit, etc). \n\nWe got the soft shell crab basket to start since Derek never had it before. It was a bit overfried but tasty, and the cajun fries were tasty.\n\nFor the meal we had 1 lb hot n juicy medium shrimp, 1 lb hot n juicy spicy crawfish, 1 lb hot n juicy extra spicy crawish, and corn + potato + rice.\n\nThe conclusion: the shrimp were large, juicy, flavorful and tasty. The spicy crawfish was our favorite - not too hot but the spice added up enough to give us that delicious burning flavor on the tongue and runny nose/watery eyes. The flavor also was great. The extra spicy crawfish had a nice intense spice, but the butter and overly powdered seasoning muddled the flavor. \n\nThe corn and rice were nice \""neutralizers\"" - next time we go here we would get the spicy level with anything. A fun, messy, bib-ilicious experience! and yes, I felt like a garlic breathing dragon all day!

Today was one of those days where I look in the fridge at my frozen dinners.. Then I look in the cabinets at my cans of soup... and say f*ck it. I'm going to try something new. \nEnter Jimmy Johns. In GA, they just recently started opening shops, but none of them where near enough to where I lived and worked for me to actually try it. \nFirst off, the website is awesome. Their nutrition calculator lets you choose the toppings, add/subtract things from the sandwich, and even choose a lettuce wrap instead of bread. It gives you the complete nutrition info, instead of just calories. Yay!\nI got the country club unwich (lettuce wrap) with turkey and ham, and sat patiently waiting for the delivery boy. The delivery time said somewhere between 11 and 11:30; the boy showed up at 11:02. Nice!\nThe sandwich was delicious, despite it's lack of bread, and super healthy.. because of the lack of bread. \nOh, and it's cheap! 6.50 for the sandwich, plus whatever yout tip. \nWill definitely order from them again.

I have been a huge fan of all things Fuente for years and have some rare sticks from them in my humidor but I had never had a chance to stop by Casa Fuente until today. I was wrapping up what should have been a fun week in Vegas that turned into a very rough week and decided that I wold spend the few hours between checking out of my hotel and my flight with a Mojito and nice cigar.\n\nCase Fuente hit the spot. Everything that they say about the waitresses is true they are spectacular and of course the cigar selection is limited mostly to the fuente lines but their is enough to satisfy most taste.\n\nI also enjoyed the Mojito very much. It was not the overly sweet Mojito you tend to get in bars in LA. It was more the tangy flavorful Mojito that I remember from my trip to Miami. \n\nMy only complaint is that everything was a bit expensive. But then again it is in Ceasar's Palace.\n\nThat being said I will be back.

The hostess was very nice and invited us in to dine so we said OK lets try something new. We went in sat down and started looking over the menu. After a while we noticed that no one had checked on us and at least 2 songs had passed by. I looked at my wife and we decided to play a game. We put both our empty water glasses out for the server to see and we counted how many times someone would look at them before they came over to check on us. Menus down and empty glasses out, servers glanced over our table 11 times before we decided to leave. This place needs work.

Order is always correct ( it's a fast food joint, that got them the one star ). Service ALWAYS blows. Order more than one item and you'll sit in the parking lot waiting. \""Have it your way\"" does not apply to this location. Have ordered 4 menu items, waited 30 minutes, and then had to walk in to check on my order. Food--- fine, standard, it's fast food. Service--- so sub-par I cannot call it service. They treat you like it's your fault because you ordered anything.

Groupon says on the Nut shell: Tea, fruit, and snacks accompany this relaxing foot rub and detox treatment, no such thing....

This dealership is a stealership when it comes to having your car service. I went to the dealership to have an oil change and then when my car was done they told me i have to replace my brake pads which cost $680 to replace front and rear, wow!! i made a quick research when i was there on my iphone to search for the parts which only cost $154 that's a no brainer.

This is my favorite burger joint in the Scottsdale area. I've never had bad service, and I always love the food. What's especially unique and enjoyable about Stax is that their \""Exotic\"" burger on the menu is always changing, depending on the time of year. No matter what it is, I usually have it, though. I also love the Wagyu beef burger, the Buffalo burger, and the basket of the sweet potato fries! But it's allllll good.\n\nMake this one of your next stops in Old Town Scottsdale, and sit outside if you can. There's plenty of great people-watching to enjoy along Scottsdale Road.
