Found this on Yelp and thought I would give it a try since it was nearby and highly rated. The place is in a commercial area and seemed out of place in the blue collar area. It actually fits in perfectly. We were greeted immediately upon entering by the friendly staff. The food is all made fresh and on the premises. I had pancakes, bacon, eggs, and a side of biscuits and gravy. All of it was great. My friend had the Cali omelette and he loved it as well. The place is clean, friendly, and does have great food. I saw the Yelp gift certificate that allowed me to by a $20 GC for $10. I bought it at the table and paid with it on the spot. This is a gem. I will be back to visit. | 1 |
Having had just checked into our hotel, we were prowling the nearby streets famished. Just around the corner we found a cozy little restaurant called \""Cafe Presto\"". It was casual, and promised light meals (repas leger in French) which was precisely what we were looking for. \n\nWe were greeted by the avuncular owner. This charming older gentleman led us to our table. As we sat down we asked for water, mentioning that we'd get wine with dinner. \""Jolly Good,\"" he replied in his warm accent.\n\nThere's no menu, he just rhymes off what's available for the day. We selected our dishes and then asked for half a liter of wine; he didn't pause to ask us what we'd like. He simply returned with two bistro style wine glasses (think family dinner table wine glasses on the Sopranos) and the house red.\n\nWe had a Hot Italian Sausage Pasta and a Beef Stew. Things come delicately flavoured, the tomato sauce is always fresh, and it feels like home cooking. This is a lovely spot to grab a simple and delicious quick lunch or early dinner.\n\nIt's the atmosphere of this place that really drew us in, and what will draw us back. | 1 |
I stayed at Bally's last year and was very impressed with the rooms. We paid only $125 a night and got more than any hotel room I have seen for that price. We had 2 beds, a dining room table for 6 and 2 couches around the TV. We also had a desk set up, ordered the wireless internet, but they never billed us the $10 bucks per day for it.\n\nI was not overly impressed with the casino itself, but Harris was right across the street and thats where I spent most of my gambling time.\n\nThe places to eat in Bally's and Paris (which is next door but there is an indoor walk way connecting them), were very good though. Didn't have any bad meals while there. | 1 |
Worst experience I have ever had getting a facial! First off she put a cream on my face that started to burn, I advised her it was burning and she took her time taking it off. Then she was on her phone (texting) majority of the time. My appt. Was for an hour she was done less than 45 minutes and most of that time she was on her phone. She put a lotion on my face and told me I was done. I felt like I was getting punked! That's how bad it was! I would never ever recommend this place for a facial! | 0 |
Place is empty. Totally ignored by staff. VERY overpriced for what you get. Don't bother | 0 |
the worst don't do it!!!! terrible service! terrible door man! 1961 decor-no ac don't waste you money here!! no food!!! | 0 |
One of my favorite taco shops. Don't be fooled by the rough exterior as the inside is the inside is very clean and nicely decorated with colorful mexican tile. You order from the counter and take a seat where the friendly staff will soon deliver fresh chips and very good salsa. Your food will also be delivered on a real plate - not wrapped in paper or in a styrofoam box like many of the other area taco shops. \n\nThe Al Pastor and Carnitas are top notch. I usually go with Al Pastor tacos but sometimes like get Carnitas into the mix. I'm normally not a huge fan of ceviche however I really enjoy Mucho Taco's ceviche tostada. The beans are excellent and I've had a really good chicken soup here as well. Other reviewers have mentioned the Horchata and I'm looking forward to trying that on my next visit. According to the server all of the aguas frescas are made fresh on-site, so if you're looking for Horchata Ole! (or Orange Bang! for that matter) you'll have to try somewhere else.\n\nAlmost forgot to mention that the prices are very reasonable. My only complaints with Mucho Taco are that the taquitos are a little small and that Al Pastor is not available in a burrito (only tacos and tortas). I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for cheap but tasty mexican food in a casual environment. | 1 |
This Walmart is horrible! Been here about 5 times and all 5 has been a horrible experience! You will be very lucky to only be in line for 15min, lines are always long and there's maybe a total of 6 check out stands open.. Not going here again! | 0 |
Overpriced bland mexican food. Atmosphere doesn't fit the place and feels awkward. I was really surprised to find that even during happy hour my girlfriend and I had a $49 tab for 2 meals and 3 drinks. I would avoid this place at all costs. I mean you are on the westside of the valley where you are not more than a stones throw in most any direction for really good mexican food. It's akin to going to somewhere like Kansas and having mexican food where the average patron has no idea what traditional mexican food tastes like. No bueno. | 0 |
Dr. Steelman at Bonanza is simply put, in my opinion the very best (and fairest) cat vet in Las Vegas. She is very, very knowledgeable and very compassionate. I'll take any and all of my cats to Dr. Steelman until the end of time. | 1 |
Love Portillo's! I used to go to the Buena Park, CA location all of the time before moving to Arizona. So glad they opened one in Scottsdale! | 1 |
I grew up on the Texas border and decided to give a Taco place in Charlotte a shot. Had the carne asada tacos on corn and they were great. Slightly greasy corn tort is just right! Good service too. | 1 |
Last Thursday (10/25/12) I went here to get a pedicure. I arrived at 3:40pm. There were 2 people working and they were each serving a person. At 3:50pm I was put into the foot bath and from there I waited until 5:00pm to have my toenails painted. I considered leaving around 4:30pm and at that point I asked how much longer I was going to wait, as I had work at 6pm. I was told 10min and that obviously meant it was another half hour. 10 minutes into getting my nails painted someone walked in and started chatting with the lady that was working on my nails, to the point where she would pause working. I eventually got annoyed and asked her kindly to please stop chatting and continue working on my nails as I had somewhere to go. The guy I had spoke to earlier overheard and agreed as he remembered that I had work. She sped up and kinda did a sloppy job on my nails, as one of them is half painted. I won't be going back. | 0 |
Just got back from Vegas, had the Curry Beef (they were out of chicken), Fried Porkchop Udon, Fried Chicken Udon, Fried Shrimp wonton as well as Shrimp Wonton in udon, desert we tried the Mango, almond and Roti (flaming Ice cream). This place had a strange smell when you enter, but got used to when you are in. The food was good and decent, it had a Japanese/chinese/hawaiian taste to it.. I know Udon is Japanes, but all of these other flavors confuses yet heighten your senses. Overall it was food, a family of four cost around $40 and you were stuffed when you leave.. get in their early as they ran out of favorites fast.. the hamione Rice and chicken curry ran out when we arrived around 7pm | 1 |
The biscuits are to die for. Seriously. The bo berry biscuits are good if you want something sweet (and I mean sweet), but you can't beat just a plain, melt in your mouth biscuit. \n\nService is good, too. Can't remember a time when anyone's gotten my order wrong. You can count on them to get it right. | 1 |
My first time using Spirit was just fine - even with all the extra charges for seats, drinks, luggage etc - it still worked out and I saved a bit of money. This last trip from Oakland to Vegas was no problem - all went well - problem was on the flight home. I arrived on time for the flight waiting at the gate - and 45 before the flight we are told to move to another gate - no worries - hoofed it over to next gate - arrive at new departure gate and we are told our plane is being taken over by flight to Chicago - WTF why?. Our flight was delayed over an hour - what made matters worse is that attendant at he desk near the gate never really told a lot of the folks expecting to go to Oakland on time that their was delay and the announcements over the loud speakers kept telling us we were still on time for Oakland - guess what a lot of people for Oakland start trying to board the Chicago flight - not good. Finally get on the right flight - arrived to my seat which I paid more for and found that someone had broken an ink pen and smeared ink all over the seat - did not look like the seat had been cleaned - I was not offered another seat - I had to scrounge around and find something to place over the seat so I could sit down and not ruin my pants - never again Spirit - dirty planes, delays all the time from what I heard from other passengers. | 0 |
I do everything I can to support local businesses. When I was in need of simple stickers and business cards I chose to patronize Think!. They are local and are within a 1/2 mile of my home. \n\nDay 1\nOn Wednesday1/29/14, I took my small project (another local start-up) to the Phoenix location. I spent about 20 minutes with JD discussing the project and felt positive that I made the right choice. He said that he would get back to me with a quote and the project was no problem for them. He also reassured me that he had all of the information needed to complete the project.\n\nDay 2\nThe morning of Thursday 1/30/14, I had not heard from JD or Think!. I called to inquire about the quote and JD was not available, so I left my number and requested a call back. Later in the day I called back because I had not heard from JD, or anyone that could provide the simple quote. At that time I spoke to JD and he said, \""Yep, we're almost done with everything and I'll have it to you soon.\"" I did not hear back from JD or Think! via email or phone.\n\nDay 3\nBy noon on 1/31/14 I had not heard from anyone, so I called again. After my request to speak with JD again, the employee that took the call did not know he didn't put me on hold and I heard, \""Blaine? I'm trying to remember who Blaine is.\"" At that time I was hung up on. I called the Tempe location for help on the quote and they told me that they would contact the Phoenix location to inform me on status of the quote. The employee I spoke to (wish I remembered her name), told me to let her know if I did not hear from JD today and that the Tempe location would take care of the request if needed. Unfortunately, I was not able to contact Tempe before the location closed.\n\nI will now be completing the project myself and taking it to a Staples or Office Max big box store for printing. I wish I could have given a 5 star rating, but I wasn't offered the chance. | 0 |
Amazing food, excellent staff, and super cool atmosphere! | 1 |
The Downtown Cocktail Room is 100% my style. I don't care what you want to call them: bar, club, lounge, speakeasy; when I go out to these places I want only a few things. \n\n1. Good Drinks - DCR delivers a menu of signature cocktails and old favs that are rotated seasonally.\n\n2. Good music - DJ this Saturday was cranking them out the entire time, however, the music was low enough to hold a conversation over.\n\n3. Efficient Service - The waitresses were on top of our entire group throughout the evening.\n\nThe bottom line is the DCR delivered on all fronts and gives me a personal favorite hangout spot downtown. Don't forget to check out the bathrooms as Suzie mentioned; they're neat. | 1 |
2.5 . I decided to stay in Vegas after the EDC weekend and a good friend of mine wanted to check out Fremont street. We hop on the bus and get off. Our original destination of insert coins was closed. After walking a bit I saw Park On Fremont and decided to check it out from the happy hour board outside. We were seated in the back. It wasn't that busy of a night and it took over 20 minutes for our server to even acknowledge us and give us water. \n\nI look over the happy hour menu and ask a few questions. Turns out the drinks for happy hour are NOT the same size as the regular counterparts in the menu. Same goes for the food choices. \n\nThe food was tasty, saving this experience. I had the Philly cheese steak and a friend had the sliders which were good as well. The drinks were tasty, but I don't know if they are 10 dollar craft cocktail tasty. After we were done eating , the waitress apologizes and gives us 2 of the 5$ special drinks for the trouble. Nice gesture, but the damage was done. \n\nAll in all, service was lacking majorly and just not a \""I want to be at work\"" vibe from the staff. Almost a point for the see saw in the secret back area though. | 0 |
Yum, yum! Food was delicious and the all day Happy Hour on a Saturday didn't suck either. Had the PB & J & Bacon burger... Ridiculous! I'll be back FOR SURE! | 1 |
Having a craving for some sweet treats, I decided to check out this new bakery in town. The place is small, but very clean and the employee who helped me was very patient and friendly! \n\nI purchased:\n\nCannoli (small)- not the best Cannoli I have eaten, but it wasn't too bad. The shell was light and crispy. I couldn't tell what the filling tasted like. I was hoping it would be vanilla custard, but it seemed like something else with a hint of cinnamon? The cool thing is that they fill up the Cannoli when you order!\n\nCream Puff - I have to agree with everyone else here, this was very good! Light, creamy, and perfect for dessert after my meal. \n\nLemon Cake Truffle - loved this bite sized cake bite! Nicely decorated, and the lemon coating was not too overpowering. I wish I bought other flavors to try out because they were delicious!\n\nTres Leches (mini) - I think I have only had Tres Leches twice in my life, and from what I remember, it was very sweet. This one was perfect, not overly sweet or soggy!\n\nVanilla Cupcake with Mocha frosting - the cake was moist, but I think they went a little overboard with the frosting. \n\nThey don't have a huge selection, but still a good enough amount of pastries and desserts to choose from. My only suggestion is that they should probably put up more signs indicating the different flavors of some of their items. The woman who was helping me had to name all the flavors available on display when I ordered the Cake Truffle and Cupcake. \n\nI love how everything so far has not been overly sweet! I will definitely be back to try more of their goodies! | 1 |
Not a single clean table in the whole place, even though an employee was lounging at one of said dirty tables. | 0 |
This is hands down my favorite place to walk my dogs in the entire Valley! Many different dirt paths meander and intertwine to give a multi-mile walking path through dense vegetation and various lakes/ponds. Sometimes, mid-walk you just might forget you're surrounded by traffic and urban sprawl--it really is that beautiful and peaceful! \n\nThe Riparian Preserve is home to a bird sanctuary where ducks, geese, herons, and song birds nest and feed. They also have an observatory that's open Friday and Saturday nights, BBQ's where you can grill, picnic benches to eat at, and a lake where you can fish. It's a great place to walk, run, ride horses or bikes, or take your annual family Christmas photo--which half of Gilbert does every Fall. \n\nMy only complaints are that some thoughtless individuals fail to clean up their trash (not sure if their mothers never taught them to pick up after themselves or they think a magic fairy follows them around for the sole purpose of disposing of their junk) or worse yet, their used fishing lines--this one's the bad one though--I've actually seen poor ducks who have mistakenly swallowed fishing hooks swim around helplessly until they die--true story. Really sad stuff. Other frequent visitors have said their dogs have stepped on used fishing hooks and hurt their paws--so just watch out for that if you're walking by the fishing lake with animals or small children. And if you're fishing, PLEASE take that one extra minute to dispose of your junk! \n\nAlso, some other losers decided the Riparian Preserve would be a good place to dump their unwanted house cats--which over time has led to a burgeoning feral cat population, which preys on the nesting baby birds (as told to me by one of the park rangers); you may see some of these furry predators as you walk around. So please, if you're considering giving your poor house cat the boot, find a friend or animal shelter instead of setting them loose here. Alright, I'm done ranting. | 1 |
Does the management not check their Yelp account? Because it seems like that they STILL haven't done anything about the terrible service. \n\nJezabel, or whatever her name was, took my order over the phone & answered impatiently to my questions with \""YEA.\"" \""OKAY.\"". I figured they were busy so I brushed off her snooty attitude...until SHE HUNG UP ON ME WITHOUT EVEN ASKING FOR MY NAME OR EVEN SAYING BYE.\n\nAnother time I came in there were two workers in the kitchen chatting away & laughing obnoxiously while they saw me standing in the front, all while I was in a rush. Then after I got my smoothie it was tasteless. No taste of fruit whatsoever. I thought it was just mine, but other people who got a smoothie from the same location said they had the same crappy, tasteless smoothie. \n\nI usually come here because it's convenient for me, but I've had it. I am never coming back to this horrible location.\n\nI wish Yelp gave the option to not give any stars. | 0 |
Typically pretty fast.\n\nOnly docking a star since one burger order was partially cooked. Also, there was some unprofessional drama going on. it's irritating to place an order when there's constant giggles and such. | 1 |
I stopped by to do a take-out and the place was nicely decorated, very Thai I must say and the server was very friendly and helpful. I placed my order and the lady behind the counter was so nice and so helpful and so informative. She also had the cutest little Thai pants which she told me came from Thailand, of course. I ordered tom ga kai and tofu panang and requested mild spice. The tom ka gai was mild and loaded with veggies, very yummy and was tasty. The tofu panang came out spicy! I couldn't eat it and my nose was running and my tongue burning! Guess it is hard to make curry not spicy??? They have an extensive menu and the people here are super nice and helpful, has a very homey atmosphere to it! Met the owner, Nina and her mom! Cute family.. Give this place a try! They're more friendly than other Thai places that I've been to... | 1 |
This place seems really interesting your first visit, but the novelty wears off after the second or third visit. The food does come out really hot, which is great, and the place has been pretty clean the couple times I have visited. I've found there isn't anything that really makes this place stand out; the flavors come across as pretty bland. If the food wasn't so expensive I probably would give it a higher rating, but it's too expensive for what you get. If I'm looking for something really tasty that is asian style, I'll head across one block east to cravings. | 0 |
This place gets one star.\nWhy?\nBecause of the proliferation of snotnose owners.That's why.\nClassic Phoenix ridden Children of The Corn mentality.\nThey don't know you?\nYou're not welcome.\nHostile,rude,obnoxious,condescending group of assholes who congregate in their asshole pods to size up the new entrants into the park.\nGods forbid your dog goes to play with any of theirs either.\nBetween the nasty remarks,dirty looks and them pulling their oh so hi falutin mutts away when play does ensue,I find it a dissapointment at best to have to take dogface here.\nI have never seen this level of anti social behavior anywhere else in the world.\nThis dog park's overall mentality is a prime microcosm example of what I despise about Phoenix. | 0 |
I was living in Cali and my BF in Arizona.. My BF and friends took me here on my first visit to AZ and I was afraid I wouldn't be a fan... I was SO wrong. And, once I ate their if I found out they went without me (after I had gone back to Cali) I would get so upset!\n\nThe location and exterior is very unassuming, actually you might miss it if you didn't know what you were looking for. It's tucked between a discount bread store and an Italian place in a slightly run down little strip mall. Initially, when you walk in it doesn't get much better... Its a hallway basically with about 8 tables that seat 2, 2 tables that seat four and a table all the way in the back that will seat 6-8. They also have about 14 seats at the bar. It's dark and in the summer it's WaRm too. \n\nBut, once you grab a table (it can take time on a Fri or Sat night) you are in for some good eats. \n\nI love The Porky, Bangers & Mash & Carne Adovada. BF loves the Lamb & Mint. Friends of ours typically go for The Cottage Pie, Royale with Cheese or the Greek Chicken. Typically we stay with the \""traditional pasties\"", but I recently tried the Carne Adovada (considered a premium pasty) and it rocks. So, BASICALLY we've never been disappointed. \n\nAnd the red wine gravy that they serve on the side... Yeah, I could drink it (you will want to too). \n\nAnd while there are a TON of pastys to choose from... at least once you have to order their pasta salad (order it w/ chicken). Spinach, bow tie pasta, grape tomatoes, kalamata olives, onions, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers and chicken tossed in a yummy pesto vinaigrette.\n\nThis is a spot that we always hit early on a Sat or Sun... rarely are we interested in braving the Fri night crowd... And, don't go with more than 4 people unless you want to sit at the bar.\n\nHard Cider and a pasty... my perfect Sunday afternoon.\n\n*I was torn on giving the CPC 4 or 5 stars because of their ti-ny seating capacity... but it adds to the character of the place. | 1 |
On Sunday my husband and I went to a picture perfect lakeside brunch in Desert Shores at Marche Bacchus. I am falling in love with this commecial center's 'restaurant row' each time we go, as I find it a much needed escape from our natural desert landscape (the desert has it's beauty, but the life that flourishes in and amongst this artificial oasis is a refreshing change). The beautiful weather this time of year certainly makes this particular outdoor eatery more appealing, but the food makes it worthy of a return no matter the season.\n\nAlthough I have eaten at Marche Bacchus a handful of times within the past few years, I hadn't been back recently because the old chef seemed to let things slip. The new chef, however, has revived this hot spot for traditional French cuisine, and a decorator has stepped in and made the cafe/wine store into a place you can easily spend a few hours in. Since this location is becoming a popular place to host weddings, today we tried something old and something new, something cold and something, well, pink.\n\nThere were actually two something olds, the french onion soup ($8) and the moulles frites (steamed mussels with fries, $15). The French onion soup was served traditionally in a brown and white clay bowl textured by crisp gruyere baked around its edges. The veal stock was rich and seemed salty at first, but as the soup began to cool from its bubbling state the flavors emerged revealing a layer of acidity we intially mistook for overseasoning. It was definitely one of those dishes that gets better and better the more you eat. Sadly, however, the moules weren't as impressive. Although the mussels were cooked well, the broth was weak and didn't coat them enough to give any additional flavor. It was served in the appropriate cast iron vessel, but this pot was really too small to allow you to get the liquid in each bite. The frittes on the other hand were teriffic, but I would have preferred a traditional aoli as an accompaniment rather than plain old American ketchup.\n\nThe something cold was the Lobster Avocado Croissant ($12), which was incredibly difficult to find any fault with. The buttery and golden brown croissant was light (can light be used to describe a croissant?), but despite this was not overpowered by the lobster filling. There is no mayonnaise used in the salad, according to the waiter, making the dish all the more impressive as there is a definite creaminess to it. The salad was composed of big chunks of lobster bound by less desirable (yet still tasty) knuckle meat enhanced with crunchy, finely chopped celery and shallots. It was served with a delicately dressed salad that upped the fresh factor and colored the plate.\n\nThe something new was the sake Bloody Mary ($9.50) Ian had, which rivaled that of Hash House for the best in town (note: they don't use vodka at March Bacchus because they only have a wine and beer license). This one doesn't have the jalapeno stuffed olives and tangy cornichons, but it does contain an ample amount of real horseradish that gives an unexpected punch, differing greatly from the usual tobasco and black pepper that give heat to most (think spiked cocktail sauce). The something pink was my Kir Royale ($8) which was a relative bargain but a touch on the sweet side for my taste. It didn't matter though, becuase the color looked so beautiful in contrast to the background of blue sky and green palm fronds (see below).\n\nTo top off the lovely meal, the service was wonderful. Our waiter even brought over a heat lamp to combat the mild, cool breeze without us having to ask. I could have done without the artificial strand of sunflowers that wrapped the bridge, but I guess the whole scene is fairly artificial so it didn't bother me too much. The ambiance actually adds tremendously to the meal, because despite the faux flowers and what not, you are surrounded by running water, several turtles, large carp, and a beautiful black swan. If you come here I insist you pick a day when the weather is just right and make the most of the money you're spending by lingering over a deliciously beautiful afternoon. | 1 |
Everytime and friend of mines comes to town we always come to eat here because the staff is amazing(especially the manager) and the rolls are awesome! Last time we were here the manager allowed us to be seated, even though it was close to closing, and gave us free desert. She is an amazing person...MmmmMMmmm, it's pricey but worth it. | 1 |
Biggest rip off ever!! I had gotten an estimate from them to do a brake service and replacement on my vehicle and after my jaw dropped from the extravagant price they called me to reduce the original estimate they had given me by three thousand dollars!!!! Do they think I am an idiot!!! I will never do and business with this dealership. I will surely not ever buy an overpriced car from them either. | 0 |
It called beforehand and spoke to Don and informed him that I had to 25.95 coupon. and I would be right in When I arrived I spoke to Don again and mentioned the coupon again and he told me to hold on to it until when he calls me in to pay. He called me in to talk to me and tell me what needed to be fixed on the car, basically the upsell and I am okay with that because I generally do my own work and don't pay 15.00 for an air filter I can get at target for 1/5 of their price but I do understand what they are doing. Again I tried to present the coupon and he told me to hold on to. When he was done he gave me the total and it was $40.04, far from the $25.95 I was expecting. When I questioned him his reply was \"" I asked you if you wanted Valvoline oil and you said yes\"" I don't remember him asking him but here is what they did to me and you need to watch out if you come in with a coupon. Even though he knew I had the coupon which stipulated it had to be Shell oil he deliberately asked me if I wanted Valvoline oil. If he had asked me, \"" the coupon is for Shell oil, would you prefer valvoline\"" then I would have had the option to choose, not be duped into accepting something that was not part of the coupon. This is how they got around honoring the coupon. Very unethical way to do business and I intend on reaching out to Jiffy Lube corporate and see what their answer is. \n\nThis is the second time I used jiffy lube and both times have been a bad experience and looking at reviews, I guess I am not the only one who questions their practices. Obviously I won't be coming back here and I suggest you don't go there either. | 0 |
If I could give minus stars I would. Probably the worst run hotel I've ever stayed in. Service is beyond slow and unfriendly. Buffet was horrible. No hot water. Room not set up as promised by front desk. I could go on and on. STAY AWAY | 0 |
Be very, very, very careful when coming to this dealership.\nThey fully expect you to buy a car, without test driving it.\n\nUnfortunately, my husband and I were seriously interested in a car that could only be found at this dealership. Alas, they would not let us test drive it because \""they didn't want to put extra mileage on the car\"". \n\nI've test driven Ferarris, Porsches, Range Rovers, BMWs, etc.... and never had ANY of these dealerships blink an eye when I asked to test drive their vehicles.\n\nApparently, the cars at this dealership are just that \""exclusive\"".\n\nSave your time and money, and go to another Dodge/Jeep dealership that will treat you sanely, and with respect. | 0 |
While I'm always reluctant to hand out 4-stars for Italian, (because there are just so many out there), I have to think back on our last visit a few months ago. My wife joined me for a trade show, and we ended up here for dinner, based on a goggle search. \n\nI've been coming to LV for one reason or another since 1969. I consider myself a semi-local, and stay away from the strip whenever possible. So I do have a \""black book\"" of off-strip restaurants that I frequent. I've just added La Scala to my list. Yes, it's in an older part of town, at the bottom of a condo-apt. multi-story building. But once you walk in, you'll find a comfortable, traditional Italian ambiance, starting with everything draped in red! \n\nWe were \""the only ones in the place.\"" And every thing you other reviewers said is consistent. \""Old school waiter from Europe\""... owner in the kitchen, walking out front every now and then, best gnocci we've tasted recently, and although I can't remember what we ordered for dessert....... it was very good.\n\nI only hope my return visits are as good as our first visit. | 1 |
Food was good but had to get my own mustard and refill. no servers touching tables unless dropping something off to table. Talking to cooks more than tables. | 1 |
Nice Asian coffee house reminds me of some of the places I visited back in Cali at jtown. Desserts are good, definitely will come back and try there honey toast and the coffee drink I tried was quite tasty. The place has pretty late business hours so definitely will take advantage of that especially since there is no coffee house that is open that late in the SW area. | 1 |
Not one of the best Cirque du Soleil shows out there. I think the only reason I was able to sit and watch the entire show without falling asleep was because I was really buzzing by the time I got in the theater. I was only impressed by the revolving stage which is a floor stage and can be tilted and manipulated to become a wall. The other impressive moment in the show was when one of the performers was running on top of gigantic spinning wheel while jump roping at the same time.\n\nOther than that, I was actually quite disappointed. I thought KA was all about fire and flames. We only experience that here and there in bits. At the end of the show, there was a finale of spinning sparklers which blinded me more than anything. Not to mention, I was confused most of the time as to what the storyline was about. It was kind of a \""watch as you go and use common sense\"" feeling. | 0 |
Been going there for years. If you can find someone else I say go there, horrible office staff no one gets back to you on tests results. Will hope to find someone new in 2012. Waiting time is terrible usually an hour and half no matter what time I get there. Looking for someone on the southwest \n\nLaura | 0 |

I arrived at the Slug and Lettuce having spent roughly 6 or 7 hours in a car home from Alton Towers. I had a numb bum, tired eyes and a rumbly tummy so we decided something quick and easy will do. My friend was desperate for a Sunday Roast so this place fitted the bill.\n\nOr so we thought, after being shown to a table and deciding on what we wanted we were told there was no Sunday Roast left...... I saw his eyes sink a little. Gutted. On a side note, please either decide if you are going to have table service or order at the bar, I find the mix of the two really rather bizzare.\n\nSo, I ordered a Mojito as cocktails are half price at the weekends!? Meh, I would not have it again if I were to return. It was a little lacklustre. I then had a butternut squash, spinach and goats cheese lasagne - sounds yum, tasted yum. Up until an hour or so later, I did not feel well and having eaten nothing else I can't see what else could have made me feel so queasy. Rather disappointing really, wish I had gone somewhere a little more exciting. | 0 |
I hate to one of \""those people\"" who airs their dirty laundry in public but after using the dry cleaning services at TLC I feel I must get the word out! After moving I needed to find a new local dry cleaner, so I did some research and found TLC based on their good reviews and close location. I then chose to take my beloved bedding there. These are not your ordinary dirty sheets mind you, but my favorite, took forever to shop for, procured by careful planning of good sales, discounts and saved up gift cards Vera Wang bedding, shams and matching throw pillows included. I could not trust them to just anyone! Before the cooler weather, I wanted to make sure they were clean of the usual child cup spills, spoiled little dog who sneaks into my bed hair, late night filibertos spills and well lets just say mystery stains. I took them to TLC which was the cleanest laundry mat/ dry cleaning business I've seen. The lady at the front counter was friendly and took the time to tell me they'd been very busy and it would take several days to be ready. Well winter wasn't anytime soon so I took my chances. She took down my info and gave me my pick up slip, and let me know they'd call when ready. Two days sooner than I expected I received a call that my precious was clean. I wasn't able to get them right away but when I did the friendly gentleman at the front counter found them in seconds. I was amazing at how inexpensive my bill was, especially for a queen comforter, shame & decorative pillow covers. They looked practically perfect, almost like brand new again. No more dog hair, drink, food or mystery stains! I've found a new dry cleaner, the name says it all! Thanks TLC for taking great care of my dirty laundry!!! | 1 |
Admit it, you're cheap. That's why you're reading this review...because Circus Circus has REALLY cheap rooms and you're wondering \""Is is worth it? Or should I spend more?\"" Well, I'll help you figure that out.\n\nWe got the CHEAPEST room you can get. It was old, and located outside of the casino, but the beds were way better than a Motel 6. If you've ever been satisfied with a Motel 6, you'll be satisfied with Circus Circus, but...it's really far from the better part of the strip. \n\nCab ride from the airport was $28. Cab ride from Planet Hollywood was $16. So, if you don't plan on leaving much, Circus Circus isn't horrible. The casino is actually pretty nice, and they have quite a few $5 black jack and craps tables. If you can afford a few more dollars per night, I would recommend spending $100 per night somewhere else, say Tropicana when they have a good deal. In fact, after staying at about 6 places in Vegas, Tropicana probably has the best value. | 0 |
Having grown up in the South, the food does not compare well with the BBQ I grew up with. TeX Mex was marginal at best. Ridiculous price for a tiny pour of bourbon. Will not return. | 0 |
This review is specifically about the food. I haven't been here for any drinking or shows, so I can't say how that would be. The food is another story. I ordered a pizza with mushrooms and pepperoni, an order of wings, and a cheeseburger with fries. Placed the order and got there in 20 minutes. Took the food to work and the horror began. \n\nThe pizza was cold as shit by the time I ate it, and the flavor wasn't very good. The worst part was the mushrooms! They were literally black and hard, and I couldn't tell if that's how they were supposed to be or if they were just old and rotten. Gross gross gross! \n\nThe cheeseburger was very small, but the meat was good. Not much flavor but it tasted fresh. Fries were another story. They were cold and soggy, the worst things that can happen to fries. I ate three of them and threw them in the garbage where they belong. \n\nWings are the reason they don't get one star. They were actually tasty, and the ranch wasn't that bad. They were also still warm. \n\nAll in all, I would say this is a great place for drinking and catching live music, but the food isn't too good. Hopefully improvements can be made. | 0 |
This place reminds me of all the independent coffee stands you see in Washington. I love their dutch brother freeze with caramel it's alot like a granita- a slushie kind of coffee drink. MMMMM.\nThe service is always friendly and fast. I especially like that they have a punch card. | 1 |
Rude, rude, rude. The clerk today was put out by my business. My fiance warned me but I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt. She failed to greet me; didn't want to count the items; delivered 2 pieces of disappointing news with a look and a tone that spoke volumes (TOUGH),\nNo, little girl, tough for you! We will be going elsewhere in the future. | 0 |
My bread was very dry but my husband and brother liked theirs so I give them 2 stars for that reason. $28 for 3 sandwiches was too much. I won't be a return customer. | 0 |
Lunch time and Gyros Place was across the road. Decided to give it a try. Place seemed to be clean decor was some paintings of the New York skyline. Pretty much like most of the strip mall food places. I got their special which was a chicken pita with fries and a drink. Meal was priced right. The fries was hot and taste. The pita was good. There was nothing wrong with the food it just was not anything to write home about. Would I eat there again. The answer is: If I happen to be in the area at lunch time, hungry, I might eat there again. Would just depend on what I was wanting. There was nothing exceptional about them. The food was OK the service was OK. Nothing special. | 0 |
My husband and I recently signed up and I really like this location. There are tons of classes that are included in the membership. I've tried yoga, pilates, Zumba and aqua fit so far and have really enjoyed all of them. It helps prevent me from getting bored with the gym. I would recommend this location, but check to see if your employer has a pre-negotiated rate with them. I was able to sign up online and didn't have to deal with sales. We walked in, got our key tags and were on our way. YAY! | 1 |
This is hands down my favorite place to go for tacos! Anybody I have ever taken with me enjoys it just as much as I do. Every time I go I leave completely satisfied- I'd recommend it to any one! | 1 |
This was our 5th experience at this Melting Pot location. Our waiter was bland and unfriendly. He made a mistake on our food order and argued with us about what we ordered!\n\nInstead of bringing us the one missing food item, he took both of our plates. We had to wait another 10 minutes for him to bring back our correct dinner order.\n\nEach time he came to our table he left our curtain open and we had to stand up and close it!\n\nWe were seated near a table with 2 small children. These children shouted, screamed, and ran up and down the aisles of the restaurant. We complained to our waiter and he had the manager stop by our table. Instead of apologizing the manager said that it is always like this, this is a family restaurant, and the owner doesn't care.\n\nUm, no, The Melting Pot IS NOT a family restaurant; I've never seen young children yelling, screaming, and running up and down the aisles, and I've been to the other locations in Arizona and have never had the impression that the owner doesn't care.\n\nThere were LOTS of tables open tonight.\n\nI'll go back when they get a new manager... | 0 |
This had the potential to be the best meal I have had this year and sadly it came way under par. I considered that perhaps I had built it up in my mind but everyone else at the table had the same feeling I did. So, with a heavy heart, I am going to say this meal did not deliver. \n\nWe arrived early and enjoyed a drink at the beautiful bar. There is not one bad thing I can say about the decor of this place. It is beautiful! Very modern and updated with incredible views of the city from the fifth floor of the Phoenician. The menu for glasses of wine is a short but satisfactory list. There is also an interested beer and cocktail menu. \n\nWhen our entire party arrived (8 people for a birthday celebration) we were promptly seated. That is when things started to go down hill. Our server was very nice and attentive but the food was very overpriced and underwhelming. Phoenix magazine has their Cesaer salad listed as the best in the city. I informed the group of this and sure enough, everyone ordered it! It is made table side (totally unnecessary) but it was NOT what we expected! No one like it - it was entirely too lemony - and i felt guilty for even having suggested it. However, the French Onion Soup was delicious. We were only served bread once our appetizers arrived which I found odd, but no big deal. Our main courses arrived along with our sides, except for one. We had to remind the server to bring it. The sides are very small and really only meant for two people. So, it was difficult to share them with the table which was disappointing. I had the petite filet which was cooked medium rare just as I had asked. Unfortunately, it was not as tasty as I had hoped. It was not bad, but certainly not the best steak I had ever had. Simply mediocre. The mushroom side was salty and the potatoes gratin was good. I didn't get to try any other sides as they were too small to share with a table of 8. My boyfriend has the braised rib which the server had raved about. The meat was falling off the bone (good) but it was the sauces that really made it unappealing (bad). Some one got the lamb chops and felt they were good, but fatty. Two people really enjoyed their rib eye. Nothing but positive things to say there. \n\nAfter our main course, I double checked with the server to make sure he knew it was a birthday. He did and said he would bring out something for him. So, to our surprise, the next time he came to the table, he brought the check and said, \""Have a good night.\"" We were all very confused by this interaction. We wondered if the dessert was still coming or if he had somehow forgotten in the past five minutes. He said it was still coming (and it did with his name written in chocolate syrup which was a nice touch). At a fine dining restaurant, the bill should not be brought before we were done eating. It was very odd. We enjoyed the dessert (an apple tart thingy) and some sorbet before finally paying the bill and leaving. \n\nOverall, it was a mediocre experience. Our server was very nice and he cannot make up for the food not being excellent, but I think we were all put off by the bill and him saying good night before we were even done eating. But, enjoy the ambiance while you are there. | 0 |
I truly wanted to love this place but unfortunately, we weren't too impressed with the food. However, the server was constantly checking up on us and they do have a great wine selection to choose from. The ambience is perfect for a first date... or any date for that matter.... dim lighting, lovely interior, and an impressive display of their wine collection.\n\nNow if only the food could match up to the service and pleasant decor of the place. \n\nFresh Oysters: average, but still the best thing we ordered. \nPork Belly: unimpressive sauce and overcooked. \nSea bass: usually our favorite fish but here it was definitely overcooked, and there is nothing worse than overcooked fish :(\nDrunken noodles with ribeye: this dish was requested to be level 12 out of 10 spicy and it came out at just about 5 or 6. I can tell they don't use cheap ribeye, but once again, this was also overcooked. The quality of the ribeye must be decent though because it was still semi-tender when cooked well done. \n\nNeedless to say, we usually pack any leftovers but we left ours on the table. I still have high hopes that the cooking may improve and match the restaurant's elegant ambience. | 0 |
I am giving two stars for overall flavor. With that said i think this place is way overpriced. I got the Ahi de Gallina- it is a chicken dish- mine barely had two tablespoons of chicken on it... It was shredded (almost pulverized in my plate) they charge like 15 bucks for that plate. My husbands plate was the Bistek a lo pobre. Which they charge 15 bucks for as well. That one was served ok but what i dont understand is why they raised their prices.... On their website it shows lower prices (bistek- 12.95 and ahi de gallina 10.95) then they charged 5.95 for a plate of french fries and one cut up hot dog. And 5.95 for little pieces of chicken (looked like one chicken tender cut up and fried with a bowl full of french fries also for $5.95. And they chard 2.15 for their drinks.... If this place does not cater to the community as they should they will close down really quickly just like bahama bucks. I like to support the communities small businesses but when they overprice their food it just makes me cringe. I also did not appreciate the waitress\nArguing with me about the amount of chicken on my dish- shows me that they do not care about keeping their customers happy- what you get is what you get and thats it! Not good customer service- also had to wait for drink refills... \n\nSuggestion for you inka empire owners if you read this: kids meals should be around 4.50 and include a kids drink for the salchipapas and 5.00 and include the drink for the pollo frito. (For the type of food you sell that is what i would price it as and i would include the drink.) for the ahi de gallina i would price it at $9.95 and the bistek a la pobre $11.95. You want to get people through the door many times- not just once and never see them again. And the drinks i see alot of people in the area charge 1.49 so i would stick with that. Run some specials or send out coupons. That is how you will survive in this economy and keep your business open and alive. Also you need to train your staff a bit mire on customer service. If you have a problem how to handle it so you dont loose another customer. This is all just advice, take it or leave it, if you fail its all the same to me as i am working diligently on saving up for my own restaurant in the san tan valley area and will have less competition. From chef to (hopefully you are a) chef make these changes and you will bring more people in than you can imagine! Marketing new restaurants is what i do, so if you are looking for someone to help you plan out your restaurant better and market to the masses please send me an email. Jesrg 2000 at hotmail. | 0 |
If you care to read a review from a native Brazilian, then keep reading...\n\nThis place is awful. I forgot I had been there 6 years ago but with the change in name I arrived and thought I'd give it a chance.\n\nWaste of money. I don't have high standards but this was THE WORST Brazilian restaurant I've ever been to. The salad bar has potato salad you can buy at Walmart (believe me, I buy it there too...), pao de queijo (cheese bread) that is made from the Yoki brand (trust me, I buy it too...) I don't want to go to a restaurant that resells food from other places..\n\nThe fried banana was cold. The rice, undercooked. The farofa (fried yuca flour) was mixed with Mexican spices. They served Mexican style beans too.\n\nBut the worst were the meats. They tasted gross. Burnt. Filled with grease. The sausage was undercooked. The chicken had a weird color to it. \n\nSo I spent all but 20 mins there and $21 with tax. \n\nWhats really going on here is that the place 'mexicanized' the Brazilian steakhouse concept. I love Mexican foods and my Mexican friends (I spend a lot of time in Mexico). But truth is: when you see all the servers speak in Spanish and the food cooked Mexican style, keep in mind that you're NOT in a Brazilian steakhouse. \n\nSo skip this place altogether. Even as a regular restaurant, this place is awful. Too bad I can't give it ZERO stars in Yelp.... | 0 |
Eigentlich war ich mal regelm\u00e4\u00dfiger Theater G\u00e4nger, aber seit meinem Zuzug nach Karlsruhe hat sich das schnell ge\u00e4ndert.\n\n\n Das Theater in Karlsruhe hat durch die Betonklotz Architektur den Charme eines Parkhauses. Dies gilt leider nicht nur f\u00fcr die Au\u00dfenansicht, sondern auch f\u00fcr den Innenraum.\n\n\n Das letzte mal waren wir hier zu einer Operngala, die von der Inszenierung wirklich gelungen war. Allerdings sind die Sitzreihen gef\u00fchlt enger als bei einer Billig-Airline und ich frage mich, warum im Flieger immer vor Thrombose gewarnt wird, aber im Theater mit solch enger Bestuhlung nicht. Mit meinen 1.93 sitze ich hier wirklich unbequem.\n\n\n Generell finde ich auch die B\u00fchnenbilder im Staatsthater eher einfach und selten opulent. Teilweise sprechen mich auch die ultramodernen Umsetzungen nicht wirklich an.\n\n\n Gut gel\u00f6st ist die Versorgung mit Getr\u00e4nken in den Pausen, die man vorher buchen und zahlen kann. Das entspannt dann doch sehr.\n\n\n Mich zieht es aber immer noch nach Wiesbaden, Baden-Baden oder Frankfurt. | 0 |
This is rough for me because i've typically loved both the food and the service at Chelsea's. However, I'm seeing a lot of new staff there and I fear the traditionally excellent team service is starting to wane. I was there a couple of weeks ago for dinner, the cocktail (cape cod was devoid of any vodka) was wrong, sent it back. Sent it back, twice. The manager stopped by to say they were comping the cocktails. I thought that was extremely good service by the manager. I didn't expect a comp, but it was nice to know they were aware. My appetizer plate had avocado smudged on it, sent it back...took a while to get a new one. My entree came and my tortillas were missing. The manager stopped by again to say they were comping the entire meal and any dessert we might want. I explained that this was atypical service and that i would pay for a portion of the tab. She declined. I came back 2 weeks later for dinner again and immediately, put in a drink and appetizer order..and the drink ticket is lost. I was almost finished with my appetizer and no cocktail, no glass of water yet. the third person to check on our drink order was the hostess. so we finally get our drinks and the manager comes over to apologize and tells me they were short handed. Well, it was before rush, and there seemed to be a whole bunch of servers waking around, including the 3 who checked on our cocktails. i would have liked to tell them that the service was atypical, but based on my previous visit there, i'm afraid it's beginning to become typical. Hope I'm wrong....i still love Chelsea's and i will be going back and i would still recommend. But there better be a change in service next time. | 1 |
Great looking restaurant! The difference between other buildings catches the eye of a driver in passing. Had Heirloom Tomato Salad, Tuna Tart Tare, Local Burrata, Central Mac and Cheese, Cool Roasted Beets, and Thai Steak Salad. Everything tasted delicious and had somewhat of a \""refreshing\"" taste as well! Talented chef for sure! Definitely would return! | 1 |
I took an out of town friend here who wanted a fairly easy hike. I read reviews that said this was the place to come for an easy-moderate hike and gorgeous views. I probably won't be coming back here for these reasons:\n\n1) I personally wasn't impressed with the views. \n\n2) The hike was way easier than I thought it would be. Lots of ups and downs and flat stretches. \n\n3) No summit. \n\nI typically hike squaw peak and camelback so I probably am unfairly comparing the views and good workouts from those mountains to this one but personally, just not my cup of tea. If you are fit and looking for a good workout, go elsewhere. It would probably be better to run this trail. | 0 |
Came in for happy hour on Monday. I've brought clients here for dinner in the past and really miss the Cigar bar in the back!\n\nOrdered the burger and a beer. The burger was thick and tasty although I felt the bun is overly thick. The condiments were fresh and the potatoes that came with the burger were on the greasy side. I ended up half way through the burger and chucked half the bun and finished the burger with a fork and knife.\n\nThe bar has cougars and one was chatting my ear off. Don't get me wrong I like socializing but she was a distraction!\n\nStick with the steaks, lobster and crab cakes, I've had better burgers elsewhere although the HH price was a bargain for $13.00 for two beers & burger before gratuity. \n\nThe bartenders here were both great.. | 1 |

Always nice visiting a trader joes no matter what state or city you find yourself, nice workers ready to answer questions.\n\nStores are always clean and spacious.\n\nPicked up a Arizona grocery bag for $1, value!\n\nGot a few snacks and crackers for my ride home. | 1 |
I also checked this out as someone who would normally not be able to afford this place. I cook for a living so I thought the concept was pretty damn cool and wanted to see it executed since I couldn't quite wrap my head around how do you serve a whole restaurant while making up the menu as you go. I was there later on a Tuesday evening and the place was about half full so I didnt experience the noise problem some have complained about. I reserved \""chef\"" seating so I could watch them work and shoot the sh*t with what ever cook was stationed in front of me. First to explain the concept. From what I can gather the Chef takes the card you fill out and decides what will work for what he has already pre-planned out. Basically there is a menu you just dont get to see it. Everything is set up just like any place Ive ever worked. each station is setup to make about 4-5 dishes. the components of each dish are pre-determined as well. if you have a allergy or dont like something its either taken out of the dish and somthing else may or may not be substituted. Every restaurant does this but the customer gets to decide before hand if they do or dont want that dish to begin with. Next, the food. We had 6 courses with out wine pairing. we drank their craft n/a beverages which were quite good actually. anyways, the first course started off great. I was very impressed with my poached tomato somthin or other. I thought this is going to be a good meal. then came the soft shell crab. good but not amazing, the sauce was the best part. Then came a anduille stuff squid, was actually rather bland. nothing popped for me with that one. Then a north African spiced Lamb. Which was good but I have made the exact same thing in culinary school and wouldnt be suprised if the chef pulled the recipe right out of my old \""international cuisine\"" book. The difference was he used a type of ground lamb patty which had the gamey flavor that some either love or hate about lamb but not the right texture for me. Then came a duck leg dish. It was plain and simple bad. It was just like eating dark meat chicken. The broiler cook obviously had some duck he had been sandbagging all night either in the oven or sitting out because it was super dry. It sucked lets just leave it at that. Then dessert, what the hell it was I dont know but it was fantastic. started strong and ended well but that duck really kinda pissed me off to be honest. In the end the tab was $170 before tip. For the meal I had even at a discount was way too F'n much. I wouldnt go back just based on the price. If I could afford it I would give them another shot cause everyone deserves a second chance right? | 0 |
This place is really close to my husband's work. We decided to try this place for our Tuesday lunch date. While it was clean, it was nearly dead. The only people in the restaurant were there to shoot a commercial or an interview. The food, while largely portioned, was not that great. I would have much rather gone across the street to the 'Berto's. I had a chicken burro with guac while the hubs had the pulled pork upon my recommendation (I had read the reviews here about the pork being great). The chicken had a nice smoky flavor but it completely overwhelmed my burro. It was the only thing I tasted. The hubs said he had the same thing with the pork. We also had the brownies. They were the best part of the meal. Even though the food was not terrible, I had sated my curiosity about Bueno Burger and don't feel the need to return. They were trying a bit too hard to be the next Chipotle. Why does every new restaurant now need to have a minimum of 3 TVs all playing sports review shows? Very distracting. Definitely not a recommend. | 0 |
OVERPRICED. There was a lot of furniture in the store and the owner was friendly enough. But a lot of it was OUTDATED and overpriced. Most of it was in good to fair condition but I saw a white sleigh bed that was not in the best condition and they were charging as much as my daughter just bought hers for new. And my daughter's bed was a better brand name and nicer. After going there I figured I could find it cheaper through Craigslist or a yard sale. I visited another consignment store an hour later and found much better deals. I can't remember the name of it but it was in the Centennial shopping area. Times are tough... who wants to pay this much for used and outdated furniture??? | 0 |
I was insanely disappointed with this place. I love Mongolian BBQ's, but his one was nothing like any of the others that I have been to. The hostess was very confused about where to seat my friend and I, and then several servers walked by us before one stopped and asked if we had been helped. It was busy, so I get it. Then we were given little, tiny bowls to make our meat/veggie/sauce selections, and they add noodles or rice for you. I found that incredibly unusual for this type of restaurant, so I suppose I just don't like the concept. The meat/veggie counter was very messy, with spills and stray pieces of meat/veggies all lover. Also, I feel like if you are going to limit the bowl size, the price should be much lower. I could go to another Mongolian BBQ and get twice the food for the same price. The food itself was pretty good, although the seafood was a bit fishy. Overall, I was very disappointed. I probably will not eat here again. | 0 |
Sam's Club... what is there to say about this place? Well, I am a regular here! Though, we aren't like most people who shop here once a month or once every other month.. we stop by Sam's about 2 times a week! We usually only buy 2-3 items at a time.. not flatbeds full! The strawberries they carry (usually go for the Well Pict brand) are always big, pretty, and very sweet. And their other fruit selections is always top quality! Too bad you can't really buy single servings, but that's okay since I love food.\n\nThis is the usual place I go for my food needs. Stop by around the afternoon and get to try all the samples. Which is a hit or miss. But yeah, I go here for fruits, meats, da vinci and torani sf syrups, huge packs of spam, artichoke hearts, flavored almonds, and other goodies.\n\nThis specific location does seem better than others I've gone to, because it is cleaner, the people are very friendly, and parking is simple. It is also a convenient location in the Centennial. And as mentioned, not as busy. | 1 |
I love this place! They are at a great location and are open for most of the day. They sell a wide variety of basic \""grocery food\"" along with making their own food. They sandwiches are amazing! Plus many of their items are from other Wisconsin business. I would highly recommend going here to get great food or just to stock up on some food items!! | 1 |
Definitely not going back. Rude receptionist very unwelcoming attitude as if shes working for free and we came in there for free. Talked too fast and mumbled , like we're suppose to understand all she said as if she was talking to someone that works there. room service very poor .. no toothpaste , didn't refill soap and shampoo considering there were 3 of us that checked in. maybe staff is were not familiar with good hygiene. My husband asked the receptionist where is the Michael Jacson theater and she just anwered inside the casino... very informative answer. Not recommending them at all considering they're considered 4 star hotel ..... i'm expecting them to have a better if not the best customer service training but ended up being so disappointed . Ive been to the least expensive motels but i guess they have a better customer service and attitude !!! | 0 |

My goal was to introduce my NY friends to a new Chinese restaurant and to show them how a good Yelp rating would lead us to a good dining experience, even though I did not know the area. Strike one and two! Three different dishes and three thumbs down. I am not a dining snob, nor are my NY friends, but the food was a complete disappointment. If bland food were the hallmark of Chinese cuisine, then this would be deserving of the 4+ star rating that attracted me to this small family restaurant. The hostess/waitress was welcoming, but I should have known that that food may not meet our expectations when the waitress informed me that they do not have chinese mustard, only a sweet and sour sauce. \n\nOne friend ordered the orange chicken and left 3/4 untouched. I ordered the shrimp fried rice which was dry, tasteless and the shrimp was overcooked. The third peson in our party ordered stir fried vegetables and left half. My friends were kind enough not to say anything until I let be known how disappointed I was with the meal and then they chimed in with their similar feelings. Not being familiar with Yelp they also added, \""do you use this Yelp thing much?\"" I do and will continue to do so, but with a little less confidence. \n\nThe two stars were for the friendly, welcoming service, and pleasant family atmosphere, but I felt compelled to share our less than ideal dining experience so that others may not be mislead and think their experience will always be as others have raved about. To be fair, it may have been an off night, but clearly our experience was not up to the rating and reviews I had read before going there and unfortunately I will not give them a second chance as there are many other establishments that have proved to meet the expectations that their respective reviews have engendered. | 0 |
Cute boys & great food! The grouper fish tacos are AMAZING. I tried a few appetizers and wasn't disappointed. Overall great food for a good price. Love. | 1 |
If it's Good TASTING Indian food you want for GREAT PRICES FOR PORTIONS then stop here! It may feel like your eating in grocery store but again once the food comes it doens't matter where you are. I've tryed over 8 different places accross the valley--this has very good mutter paneer for $5.99 w/rice and naan. They don't charge you for someone to clean up the table up since you throw out your own plate. Finally good Indian food that is affordable! Check it out. Samosa's are large---2 for $1.99! | 1 |
Went to this Shoney's for the first time with my fiance for the breakfast buffet. We first walked in the the waitress at the front seemed a little distracted, she was not pleaureable at all and she didnt even smile. Once seated at the table we received another waitress who was indeed very helpful but looking around at other waitresses they also seemed distracted and like they didnt want to work. They had attitudes and didnt want to help the customers. One man at a table next to us went to ask her a question and she quickly said your waiter will be here shortly and all the man wanted was more napkins. Mind you his waiter never came. On top of that the food was very salty and greasy. Id suggest they do back ground checks on their employees and hire folks with good customer service and perhaps hire them a little older because the bunch that were there were very young. | 0 |
The raspberry herbal spice tea was truly the most delicious, unique tea I have ever drunk. The service was on point and top notch, but that could have been because they were closing soon and wanted to get everyone out. The food was fine. It had a lot of spice and flavor. The portions were huge. I got the Chiang Mai Noodles and the heat was present without being overpowering (I like spicy foods; if you don't, it will be too hot for you). I would have liked to have seen more vegetables and less noodles though. It was a plate with about a pound of noodles with only maybe 5 or 6 pieces of cooked vegetable present (hidden under the noodles, mind you). Overall, if it weren't for the tea, I would say this place is a 3-star place. The food isn't memorable and in fact left me a little disappointed. The tea, however, boosts it up to 4-stars. If you aren't planning on trying one of their awesome specialty teas, then I suggest getting your Asian fix elsewhere. | 1 |
Me and my parents went to Rania today and the food was great!! My favorite food was the gyro and ashak. But today there wasn't really any people in there except for three other people. So it would be very helpful if you guys would recommend this place to a friend, so more people will come and try it. :-) | 1 |
My company had it's Holiday Party at the Valley Ho, it is an amazing property. The staff are so friendly and courteous. The rooms are very comfortable and lack for nothing.\n\nI would recommend this property to any and all. | 1 |
Best pho I have found in this area. I am a big eater and the regular size is perfect. I've never been able to finish a large. But then again I always get spring rolls too. Vietnamese spring rolls are amazing-- love the peanut dipping sauce. \nThis place has always had great food for a great price but now, after their expansion and renovation, I would recommend it to anyone. Service is a bit slow but just sit back and relax... worth the wait. | 1 |
Since I had such a surprising experience at the Pineville location the week before and hadn't eaten at this location in a year or two, we thought we would give it another try.\n\nI didn't care for those corn-nut-thingies. They needed to either be honey-roasted or salted. The rotisserie chicken was very dry. The outside skin was good but not as tasty as their sister location's. Still, the accompanying sauces helped boost the missing flavor, but didn't help with the lack of juiciness goodness. Spicy beans were a huge improvement over the other joint's black beans, but I didn't care for the cilantro rice. I really wish they would work on both rices. Plantains were a bit on the too-mushy side. Tres Leches (a first for us) for dessert was a bit overpowering on the sweet side, so I'm glad we split it.\n\nService was just okay, nothing to write home about. This location is probably 1/3 smaller than the other location and the parking lot is terrible. This place has to compete with a Firehouse Subs, a so-so Chinese buffet, Panera Bread, and several other stores for parking. Highway 74 is a b!tch to exit on to.\n\nIf the mood strikes me about Genaro's again, I will definitely make the drive out to their Pineville location over this one.\n\nYour pal,\nWalter | 0 |
I have always had a hit and miss experience with Mad Mex. I love the fact that they have a great beer selection, but the food sometimes seemed expensive for the quality. Last Saturday night the wife and I went to the Greentree location, and the food was very good. My wife had a spicy chicken burrito, and my grilled fish tacos were fresh and full of flavor. Of course, wouldn't you know we had a waitress that simply forgot about us. No tea or water refill, no interest is selling me a second beer. Oh well. | 1 |
Great lunch spot. I'm a fan of their 8 wing lunch special. Wings, fries, and veggies. This is also our go to spot for Champion's League games. They show every single match!! \n\nUnless you've been hiding under a rock all these years, you've been to a BWW location SOMEWHERE on this planet. You know it is all about the wings. My personal favorites are mango habanero (which I think is way hotter than the blazin), Asian zing, and thai curry. \n\nThere are a good variety of beers on tap, something for everyone I would say. The food is always fresh, servers friendly, and always a fun time. Only problem is that, depending on the sporting event, it gets way too crowded. But that is part of the fun, you have massive crowds cheering for both teams. Almost feels as if you're in the stadium. | 1 |
Awesome place to go. Their motto says it all, \""little place, big flavors\"" or something like that. It's just really really good. | 1 |
Had a shrimp taco and a mushroom taco, both very good. Food came out reasonably fast and the price was fair. Will definitely return. | 1 |
SIRI found Il Bosco for us last summer when we asked for pizza on our way home from Kierland. There are many good pizza spots near our home, but we are always hoping for something more artisanal. This small, almost hidden wood-fired pizzaria was the find of the year for us. We have brought family and friends many times and have never been disappointed.\nWhen our company needed to find a caterer for a two hour event for 100 guests at the Phoenix Children's Museum I did not immediately think of Il Bosco. The event was to be akin to a happy hour with wine/beer/soda/appetizers. I really didn't want anything to do with the planning or execution of the event - I am not good at such things and I don't enjoy the process. It wasn't until after seeing quite a few other options that I raised my voice. The Phoenix Children's Museum is a wonderfully playful and unique setting and I felt we needed a more comfort oriented option.\nI remembered the pizza oven on wheels that sits in front of Il Bosco and asked my assistant to call the restaurant to see if Il Bosco offered event catering.\nWe promptly received a catering menu with set prices based on number of guests. We liked what we saw immediately. A few days later, I met the planning team at the restaurant for lunch where we were offered samples of 5 or 6 pizzas that could be made on-site at our event. It was a hit. We selected a salad option, drinks and desserts.\nWe received a VERY reasonable quote via email immediately. Bill Forrest, the owner, went personally to the museum to meet with our team and museum staff to coordinate the set up and execution. Bill offered suggestions without being intrusive and in every way demonstrated a willingness to \""make it work.\""\nThe event came off without a hitch. The food flowed at a perfect pace - it takes just a minute or two to cook a pizza in that 800 degree oven. Pizzas were consistently hot and in keeping with demand. The salad and desserts were top notch. Everything was perfect. The sight of a wood-fired pizza oven at the event raised a few eyebrows and added to the anticipation of the evening.\nThe absolute crowning contribution of Il Bosco to the evening was their having the forethought to bring pizza boxes and offering our guests fresh pizzas to take home. It was a very nice and unusual courtesy as many of our guests had children at home.\nIl Bosco made us look good. Our choice of a wood-fired pizza caterer made our event stand out. Their professional appearance and behavior were exactly what we would have expected. Il Bosco shines not only as a restaurant, but as a caterer. Most highly recommended. | 1 |
It's my \""go to\"" place to pick up Vitamins and Supplements. They have 100 mg 7-keto DHEA here, 30 ct at a decent price. I also like to browse their discounted items basket priced at $1 and up.\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/vitamin-world-tempe?select=81SC-c6dGDGJPQ1KfBEQhA#81SC-c6dGDGJPQ1KfBEQhA\n\nThe only thing is that this store is far from my house, otherwise I'd come more frequently.\n\nReturn Factor - 80% | 1 |
I am also a matchmaker and do a lot of collaborating with Joann. She is a joy to work with and her clients are quality, lovely people. Joann keeps a quality group of people because she does not take on everyone. If she doesn't feel that she can match someone, or that they are not ready, etc. she will either take them on as a coaching client first, and then match them, or not take them on. I can't say enough good things about Joann! | 1 |
I have to say a total let down, being from Central Texas born and raised and eating Kolaches for many many years, what they had was OK and wasn't worth the 20 min drive there fosho. And even thou they said they make them in house I don't believe that at all frozen Kolaches I truly believe I was given. | 0 |
Staff are very friendly,food is always fresh and refilled. I wish they would have some type of customer loyalty discount or coupons. Great menu variety and great clean atmosphere. Pricing could be more competitive.. | 1 |
I am not a fan of Pupusas in general so I don't have too much to say about that. But if you are at this location, you should watch how they make it. There is a window to the kitchen so you can watch the ladies make it. It's a skill.\n\nHoly moly, their tamales are incredible. I like that they are made with a soft and smooth corn meal, instead of the Mexican style of grainier corn meal. The flavor of the tamale is also really buttery, which comes from the lard?! Both the chicken and pork are good and the probably the same filling for the Pupusas. \n\nDon't forget to try their apple salad. This is a fruit based drink with diced apples . Not sure what is exactly in it but it's good...\n\nSee you soon, my favorite tamales.... | 1 |
I read all the other reviews and I did not get the same service that everyone else got. I walked in yesterday hoping that I would get the help that I needed to get started. I stood in the front counter waiting for someone to help me. When finally I get a \"" can I help you \"" \n\nI told this person that I wanted to know what I needed to get started and what should I purchase just to get me going. He pointed that two items \"" this one and this one \"" then started talking to one of his friends that walked into the shop. I was shocked I came in expecting to buy a kit but after that there is no way I'm going to spend my money here. \n\nI went to Pink Spot Vapors now that's the place that know how to treat new and old customers. | 0 |
2nd visit, a bit pricey for 2 turkey club w/fries. Very clean...both visits register staff could use some customer service training not very friendly, guess its better than them being rude. | 1 |
Kind of like a Goodwill store but not. We came in and felt depressed being here. They have sales each day, such as one on Monday for specific items then something different on Tuesday. I didn't notice a smell that others have mentioned. \n\nI wound up going to the restroom. The men's stall's door lock is broken so after a few minutes of trying to get it catch and stay shut I gave up and sat down to do business. It was then that a noticed the rest of the restroom reminded me of the first Saw movie...without the excrement all over, without anybody in there, without the bright lights, etc. Just had that feeling. The impending doom of someone walking in when the lock to the stall was broken had me on high alert so I got out of there as soon as I could, but first had to wash my hands...only to find a lack of paper towels. \n\nI came back out and my fiance, who is into finding clothes at Goodwill Saturday sales, wanted to get out of there fast. This place was just sad. If you've ever seen Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion it definitely reminded me of when one of the girls went to try and find a job at that thrift store (the one where a lady walked by looking at shoes, and where a baby was crying). | 0 |
Don't normally eat hamburgers but this place is great. The large French fries are just like the good old days. This is a must stop on the Las Vegas strip | 1 |
Awesome sales guys. not annoying and they don't try to trick you into buying anything. I service my car there also very quick and clean I love this dealer! | 1 |
The food was just good. Nothing I would write home about. I found a few things that I thought was weird. The first thing is they charge for refills. Really what is the cost to do refills. Second thing as sitting there eating my food some more people came in and them like me was their first visit. They had 9 people in their party. The lady behind the counter said that they 15 percent gratuity. How do you charge this when you have to order at the counter and they don't have to bring you refills of food or drink. \nOn the positive side the people were friendly. | 0 |
The food here is mediocre at best! I guess when the waiter \""suggests\"" the tasting menu, that might be the only thing good...everything else on the menu tasted salty and the chefs failed to cook our steaks twice! \n We came here and decided to go straight to the entrees & sides. My friends shared the ribeye, new york strip, and t-bone. None of these were american or japanese kobe, just the regular steaks. First, our steaks didnt even come out on time...they brought out two steaks and sides, then 5mins later our third steak arrives...cmon chefs you can do better than that! Second, the first two steaks that came out (new york strip and ribeye) were cold and overcooked. When I say cold I dont mean \""warm,\"" it was luke-warm at best..it tasted as if it had been sitting on the counter for 10min... Third, they overcooked the steak, or maybe it was sitting on the counter for so long that the steak kept cooking and also became cold at the same time..who knows, either way the steaks came out medium and medium-well, when we asked for medium-rare. We told the waiter about our unsatisfied steaks, and he took our steaks back and had them recook it without questions! A+ on the waiter's part for taking back our steaks NO QUESTIONS ASKED...unfortunately he tried to double charge us on our bill!\n We also ordered sides of mushrooms, mashed potatoes, and sauteed brocolli. The mashed potatoes were very good! The mushrooms and broccoli were way too salty! Our t-bone steak came out okay, but i felt like the meat was a little bit tough and didnt have much flavor...then again I hardly eat t-bone. So we waited and waited for our two steaks to come back, the waiter swung by a couple times to tell us our steaks would be here shortly..but it took almost 25min for our steaks to come back..way too long in my opinion! Finally our steaks came back, but this time the steaks were way too rare! The waiter tells us he cooked it rare+ (which is somewhere between medium-rare and rare). But, we didnt ask for rare+, we asked for medium rare...the rare+ was raw on the inside, it looked almost rare, and the inside was not even cooked (it was cold). Of course, at this point we were dissapointed and didnt want to tell the waiter to take it back again (it might have taken another 20min of our time). We decided to eat the side pieces of the meat and avoid the rare parts..the ribeye was actually a good piece of meat, but its hard to eat rare meat. The new york was a little chewy, but that could be because it was undercooked! \n Another thing to add to our experience here was the waiter kept dissapearing on us, we waited almost 30min for our check, and once he brought our food out, he would dissapear for 15-20min...service was way too slow here...we even asked the other waitress to get our check, but she insisted our waiter would be here shortly. \n Overall, this place failed to deliver quality steaks and service. The service was slow, they kept us waiting on food and our check, which makes a very unhappy customer. The steaks we ordered weren't from the \""recommended\"" menu, maybe thats why they didnt turn out good, but i'd expect quality food on the whole menu! The chefs really need to learn to time the entrees, all food should come out at once. The steak also needs to be cooked right, which the chefs failed to do! \n Ohh one last point, when we sent back our steaks, the waiter tried to bill us twice for both the steaks, we notice'd a double charge on our bill..pretty shady by the waiter! He tried to play it dumb when we told him, but it was so obvious he tried to double charge us for no reason...bad food and service overall! But maybe its because we didnt order from the tasting menu, which is 100+ per person. | 0 |
I was on a business trip and was staying at THE HOTEL @ Mandela Bay. I inquired about a Sushi place and was directed to RM Seafood. What a treat they had just gotten in some Big Eye Tuna and it was out of this world. My wait staff was very friendly and on top of everything. I felt like I was the only one there. You must go there if you get a chance. Brad | 1 |
