One of my favorite Asian cuisine places in Dormont. Bento boxes, sushi, tempura, lo mein, mu shu, hot and sour soup - so many great options. I was skeptical at first because of so many different styles under the same roof but they have been excellent every time! I don't live far but they deliver with the quickness, like really fast most of the time. Can't say enough how awesome their bento boxes are

I've always seen the billboards and advertisements in New York City and always heard rave reviews about the show. It's unique having this production in Vegas as it's one of the few true \""broadway-esque\"" shows on the strip. Of course in NYC, the culture and essence is quite different in entertainment. The different skill sets such as acting and singing take a precedence over acrobats and technological productions... *ahem* Vegas. \n\nCity comparisons aside, I really did enjoy the change of pace that a true broadway musical brought to Vegas. It brings people back to earth using basic entertainment from when we can remember. Even the set designs and use of props also provided made me feel nostalgic of how effective minimalism can be in stage shows. \n\nPre-show, my friend and I stood in line for a few drinks and popcorn. I believe I had this fruit punch tasting drink and it was pretty great for me since it didn't taste full of alcohol, yet had me slightly buzzed. Tasty for myself though. Popcorn was a pretty small batch but maybe for the better. That alone was around $25.00 before tip. \n\nInside the theater and yes, immediately from the get go you'll notice that indeed there isn't a \""bad seat\"" in the venue. Like everyone said, even being on the balcony won't be too far from the stage. I did score front mezzanine and I'm not complaining... great seats! LOL \n\nThe show itself does move in a fast paced with quick dialogue that may fly over a few people's head. For myself I wasn't \""hooked\"" to the show from the get go and it took a little time for me to get engaged. The acting was pretty good but no true standout performances. The singing is where it really shines... the lead character for Franki Valli was just phenomenal. Each time he hits that falsetto note chills literally run through my bones. Kind of makes me wonder why didn't the actor create his own lane in singing... who knows. \n\nThe show runs for about 2 hours and does have a quick intermission. Really around the halfway mark is where the audience begins to invest their time into the story as the juicy details and turns begins to direct the music that accompanies the story. The comedy material wasn't gut busting laughter but I enjoyed how they were able to trickle them across the 2 hours. Also, do keep in mind when bringing kids.. there is a bunch of F bombs in the show! \n\nAll in all, great show and I'm glad that Vegas does have broadway style musical to accompany all of the bizarro acts of sin city. Somewhere I feel like I would appreciate Jersey Boys to it's fullest in NYC because I'm spoiled with modern day entertainment that Vegas provides.. it's easy to lose interest in elongated storylines (which JB does have) however Jersey Boys is loaded with a pretty good cast, fantastic lead singer, and an earthly production to hold up for all 2 hours.

Love, love, LOVE Dutch bros :) best service an best coffee for sure. They are always super fast and so friendly. I don't live right near any locations so I literally drive by like 3 Starbucks just to get to Dutch bros..it's always worth it! Should definitely put one between the spot on Glendale and the location in Thunderbird.

I don't see what the hype is about although the food was good. Some say it's way better than In-N-Out but I think it's about the same. Their burgers have a genuine grilled smokey taste kind of like when Burger King's when it first came out and got popular. Of course the quality of FG is much much much muuuuch better than burger king because of their fresh and relatively healthier ingredients.\n\nTheir fries were crispy on the outside and soft inside. They are fresh potatoes too but have a different texture than in n out. I gotta say I love in n out fries but for those who hate in n out fries I would think you would love FG's fries. I think I heard that they fry their fries in peanut oil or something so if you have peanut allergies be sure to ask and if true, avoid for the sake your life!\n\nOverall a great experience but nothing crazy.

Stumbled upon this place after a trip to Best Buy. We're always up for trying something new BUT we love pizza and are quite particular about it.\n\nThis was REALLY good pizza. I'm not familiar with \""true\"" New York pizza, so I cannot attest to that, but the slices of thin pizza that we had were probably the best pizza I've had in a few years (in defense to all of the great pizza places out there, we recently moved here from an area with VERY limited restaurant options).\n\nWe were in the eat-quickly state of mind, so ordered slices only. Tried both sausage and pepperoni slices. Loved the thin crispy crust. LOVED that the sausage was sliced and not ground. My favorite of the two was the sausage.\n\nPlace was clean and plenty of seats, including a great bar-style seating.\n\nI highly recommend!
1
Here is my breakdown and why-\n\nFood: 3/5\nAtmosphere: 4/5\nService: 4/5\nWould I return? Yes\n\nFood:\nAlthough the selection of Tapas seems broad, the majority offer very similar ingredients (fishes, meats, cheeses) in similar patterns. Having been to Spain I would have liked to seen a broader range. I didn't see any Spanish style sausage and not much in the range of vegetables. The food we did have was good. We shared the tortilla, crab cakes, cheese platter, and something else. I would have liked for the tortilla to be less runny. The ingredients were fresh and higher quality. One thing to note, most of the tapas cost about $10-15 and really are not big enough to share so expect to buy at least 2-3 tapas per person or you can share a paella which is about $50. IMO this is more of a $$$ restaurant.\n\nAtmosphere: \nMuch of the vibrancy of this restaurant has to do with the aesthetics of Aria. The restaurant itself has great colors and modern styling. The restaurant gets very loud especially if there is a lot of noise from the casino. The crowd here tends to be younger and more trendy.\n\nService:\n\nI found the hosts to be friendly as they tried to accommodate many people coming and going during a busy time. The waitress was friendly and we didn't experience long waits for service. I also found the the waitress was knowledgeable and was able to answer our questions about the different foods.

5 stars for the unique concept alone! This is a really cool place to have lunch or meet a friend. All of the vendors are based in containers made into stores/offices. There is a huge area for kids to play. I wish the vendors the best. . . some of them I can't see surviving.\n\nPROS: Pinches Tacos\n Cool outdoor sitting areas\n\nCONS: Shopping wasn't very interesting\n Cost $$ to park

First time we went I was very impressed...owner is such a nice man. Food was really good. Our seconds experience we ordered for takeout and not as good. Latest time we had a groupon. We were there for at least 2 hours. It was very warm, none of the tables were clean, service was terrible, there was a little girl running back and forth screaming and worst of all was the food. They have gotten very skimpy. I think our food was sitting for a while before it was served because all of it was cold. Too bad because it was so good the first time.

I went there with a coupon for BOGO buffets. My stomach wishes I hadn't. Some of it was better than other. The service was great. The cheese Enchiladas were disgusting. The Sopapillas were good, the icecream??? was funny tasting. With the coupon it was still about $17 for two with two softdrinks and a tip, so I say skip it and go somewhere else. Your stomach will thank you.

I like Denny's, but this location was awful. It's horribly crowded, service is slow due to crowding and the staff are rude, the hostess to be particular (I know they deal with a lot of jerks all day long, but no need to be rude to me when I'm being nice to you). Not to mention, they made us wait twice as long as they said to get a table. We even saw tables open up and the hostess skipped over us a few times to put people further down on the list in those tables, really shady.\n\nHowever: Two thumbs up for the cheap value breakfasts...$2, $4 & $6!\n\nTip: If your party is larger than 4, split up and you'll get a table faster.\n\nOverall: I would only go here if there was no wait. If there was a wait, I would head on over to the restaurant called \""America\"" in New York, NY hotel...it's just like a Denny's/Red Robin. The restaurant is massive and you can always get in without waiting, good service...and their portions are HUGE.

Good service but disappointing food. Our California burger was dry... Which is hard to do given then mushrooms on top. The buns were stale. My pear salad was full of flavors that just don't go together. We usually don't eat at places unless they are 4 stars. We made an exception on this one and we are bummed we did.

Wouldn't come again. The food is so so... The service is good, but the taste is not there. Potato chips are overwhelmed with the blue cheese and the Asian salad with chicken just not there.

Went to check out the recent remodel with friends for happy hour on a Friday evening. The food was delicious as usual, but the service was atrocious. We had two equally poor waitresses. In fact, it was bad enough that we were embarrassed to have chosen Siena as the place to treat our friends that evening. With so many wonderful choices within a 10-minute drive, I'm afraid that was our last visit. The bar was pretty dead for a Friday night, too so I suspect others have been driven away as well. How sad, because the remodel is beautiful.

Our go-to neighborhood Thai restaurant!\n\nWe've frequented this place probably 5+ times now, and we've consistently had a great dining experience no matter what we have ordered.\n\n1) Pad Thai--This is the best pad thai I've ever had in recent memory. The sauce is perfect. The tofu is at a perfect consistency and the fried outside is super flavorful. I would prefer if they threw in more tofu though. We went there last night and I think they put in a total of 3 small tofu pieces. Really?\n\n2) Curry Laksa--So yummy! So decadent! This is a must-try! We always feel guilty eating it though, 'cause all that flavor and deliciousness can't possibly be good for us. Guilty pleasure :)\n\n3) Roti Canai--The curry that comes with it is phenomenal. I would prefer the roti bread less oily and thinner/crispier. Tastes great nonetheless!\n\nWe have tried other dishes as well, but I can't remember what they were. I just remember we've never had a mediocre experience there. Consistency is very important to us. I'll be sure to update this review if we order anything else on our next visit.\n\nWe usually split an order of 1 entree, a side dish, and a bowl of rice. They have good-sized portions so that's perfect for us. Our total bill comes out between $25-$30, including tip/tax. \n\nTIP: If you like spicy, ask for their tray of assorted spicy chilis! We load up our dishes with all of them! MMM!

Update: had a pretty awesome AYCE meal here last weekend. Sat in front of the friendly Kazu-san and had a good time. Incredibly tender unagi. Nice salmon belly and yellowtail belly. Very buttery toro. Sushi rice in the nigiri was on the warm side, and loosely packed - and I appreciated that. All of the nigiri was prepared like this. Kazu-san's got skills!\n\nI was also served a perfectly broiled Yellowtail Collar - medium rare. Delicious. The scallop sushi was very firm and fresh - the closest to live I've had in nigiri form. (Sushi Koma's scallop sushi is rather slimy+fishy in comparison.)\n\nMy new hand roll rule: Only order hand rolls one-at-a-time at the sushi bar *only* (to maintain a crispy nori cone). Makes all the difference. Your hand roll nori will become a soggy latex funnel if you let it sit for more than 20 seconds. Gobble it up as soon as it is made!\n\nI am again a big fan of the 'new' Sushi Mon. Great service, little or no wait time, and a convenient location for West-siders. I *do* enjoy the kitchen food at Sushi Koma a little more (e.g. their Tostada, their gyoza) but as far as straight-up sushi goes, Sushi Mon is fantastic.

We came here the first week they opened and they were around a 4.5. We went back recently and couldn't even get past the door. The music was way too loud for north phoenix (which tends to have an older crowd, like me) and it was particularly empty so we decided to go to sandbar instead which is still pretty loud but much more mature.

This is a fun place. Cool lighting. Good sound. Good stage. Great green room backstage. A little odd to have pool tables going in the middle of live music, in front of the stage, but at least it isn't predictable. We played a show with The Warlocks here and had a blast. A Trevor and The Joneses highlight for sure.

What a wonderful experieince! We chose to eat in the dining room instead of at the sushi bar or at a tempanyaki table. The decor was beautiful, the service was great, and the food was not only delicious, but gorgeous! I took a picture of everything we ate. Our cocktails were yummy. We had an unusual apple marini, and a plum wine champagne cocktail. For a starter, we shared a yellowtail jalapeno roll. It was awesome. For the next course, I had a warm mushroom salad that was so delicious and rich. For the main course, I had a duo of black cod and red snapper, cooked to perfection and picture worthy. For dessert, we shared a homemade green tea ice cream plate and a duo of creme brule. I don't have a single negative thing to say about this place except I wish it was closer to where I lived!!

The worst place ever!!! I will never go there again and I will tell everyone I know how bad this place is. They charged our credit card twice when we ordered shirts. When we found out later that day we called and they said \""no problem we will take care of it when you pick up the shirts.\"" We go today and the owner says \""my paper work doesn't show we got paid!\"" Even when we showed him a copy of our bank statement. He was rude and had no customer serves. We ended up paying twice for the shirts (because we needed them) and \""THE OWNER\"" will now have to deal with our bank's fraud division!!!! Everyone makes mistakes and that is ok but when you are rude and disrespectful to your customers, you might want to remember you are NOT the only company in town!!!!! and in these hard times you would think you would want to keep every customer you can get.

I purchased a ring there in Feb 2014 was told it was diamond chips and garnets. Went to have it appraised this week and it is not diamond chips.\nJust got of the phone with the owner who is the most rude and insulting person I have spoken to in a long time!! After, I explained my side...he began yelling me, calling me stupid, making it clear he wasn't going to reimburse me and hung up on me. Really!!??!!

Not impressed. My car was sent through the car was with one of the windows partially down. The interior does not seem too wet, but one of my seats was soaked. I was expecting a manager or someone to address the issue, but was never approached. The customer service is lacking at this location. This is the second shoddy experience I have had and will not return.

I hope that no one ever feels about Starbucks the way I felt about this Starbucks. My sister and I are both Gold Card holders and needless to say we've both been to MANY a Starbucks because we LOVE the drinks and we love the excellent service even more. The experience we had at this location this last Saturday early afternoon was the polar opposite to all other Starbucks experiences we've ever had. My sister went first to reload her card and the cashier just stared at her. No greeting, no how can I help you?, she just was. After she reloaded her card I went next and placed my bottled beverage on the counter and waited for her to acknowledge me. She literally did not say or do ANYTHING for a solid 30 seconds. Mind you she was doing nothing. Just standing there. I kept looking at her smiling wondering why she wasn't ringing me up.. I don't know if anyone's ever just stood in silence for 30 seconds , but that. is. a. long. time. Finally I slid the beverage closer to her and she looks at me and says 'Is that all? as if ringing me up was such an inconvenience. I attempt to explain to her how I received a reward the day before for 25% off any espresso drink and if the code on the email was all she needed for me to redeem. When she confirms it is I ask my sister what she wanted so that she can use it. My sister asks for her advice and she was SO RUDE. First if all you'd think it was her first day because she sounded like she knew nothing about the menu or customer service for that matter, secondly she kept answering my sister with a short sentences like we were annoying her. We asked her if the Espresso Frapp was considered ok under that coupon and she said no because it didn't have espresso. Your telling me the Espresso Frapp DOESNT have espresso??? Huh? My sister and I go to Starbucks over Coffee Bean, Grouchy Johns, Madhouse etc because we love the drinks but even more because we love the customer service. This location can really brush up on their Starbucks Culture training and, on a side note, can really use someone to clean up outside. The entire front of the store was covered in trash bags, water bottles, beer cans, just trash everywhere. Super disappointed. Sad because we just moved to this side of town and it looks like this is the closest location to us, but we definitely will not be coming back here sorry. Needless to say my sister and I didn't order anything and just drove to our favorite location 20 minutes away (Green Valley/Pebble:)

This was a wonderful find, recommended by friends who have stayed there twice... everything the other reviewers say is true. Alain is a wonderful host, the breakfasts are out of this world, and the location is close to St. Catherine Street, 2 metro stops, and a few really great restaurants. I'd recommend Alexandre Logan to all!

I haven't been to my old haunt since I was a young adult and after this recent visit I remembered why I haven't been here in over a decade. Perhaps it's me being spoiled by Cineplex these past few years (Colossus) and looking at the economic Guzzo experience with chagrin.... needless to state, I felt I deserved better.\n\nWe wanted to watch a movie near its end of theater life cycle that was only available in this theater. Walking in, I immediately remembered that I couldn't buy my tickets online and I had to wait behind a ridiculous long line as if I suddenly fell back in time. If it's Saturday night and 100 clients are waiting to get their tickets... why are only 2 ticket booths open? Why force your clients to wait 10-15 minutes for no good reason? Terrible client service and reeks of Guzzo being Guzzo.\n\nOnce that tragedy was done, we walked in and had no issues ordering some tasty treats and making our way to our theater. Previous Yelpers praised their comfortable seats and I was somewhat surprised that my experience didn't match theirs. Perhaps it's the fact I was in one of their smaller theaters and they probably went to one of their bigger ones for more recent movies with a far better seating experience but all I can say is that the support on my bottom left and right of my seat made me constantly feel as if I was going to fall out on the side. The support wasn't just there and the \""falling into your seat \"" feeling with a far too spongy seat just wasn't for me.\n\nFortunately the movie played without issues and no one kicked my seat.\n\nAll in all, I wouldn't come again, Cineplex is a far better experience and if I were to go to a Guzzo it would probably be the one at Marche Centrale.\n\nGuzzo needs to step up it's game, the whole movie experience feels cheap.

Update 5/8/11: I got sick from the raw oysters. I thought they tasted weird, but they looked pretty. Duh. That's the last time I ever eat any raw seafood at a buffet.

I had a great experience with Office Team. They understood the general position I was interested in and did not deviate from that. Not like other temp agencies that try to match you with whatever they have available, and not the position you are experienced in. Office Team found me assignments within the week I met with them. The only negative I would say is that at first, they found me assignments that went below the salary range I requested, but if you are persistent and remind them the salary range you are shooting for, they will try to compensate you accordingly. They were very efficient, and spoke with me weekly to see how my assignments were going, whether I was happy there and answered any and all questions I had. I appreciated the support from Office Team in helping me find my current job. Worth giving them a call, definitely.

I think Padre's is way overpriced. I also ordered a Shepherd's pie one time, and it looked and tasted like dog food (not that I eat dog food mind you!!)...\n\nIt really lacks anything to do with an Irish bar or pub.

In from out of town and knew nothing of the restaurant. Was very impressed with both the food and the service. The server was attentive but not annoying. The owner greeted us and asked after our experience. The food was fresh, with excellent flavor. The sauces tasted freshly prepared, with obviously not canned garlic. Our only regret is there isn't one in our area.

finally after 6 yrs here in town, got talked into going to blast an AK & Glock. Unfortunately, they didn't have targets with Tupac or politicians' likeness on them. \nA bit costly, and about an hour wait, but what popular touristy attraction isn't? The rush was so intense none of that mattered.\nHearing guys repeatedly yelling out Scarface lines must get old for the people that work there tho.

This place sucked. First of all, as an out of towner- I have never seen so many old fake orange women in my life. I felt like I was in an episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County: Scottsdale Edition. I am just bitter because I came here for a joyous occasion of a wedding VIP party, but I was denied access at the door because I was wearing tennis shoes. Gimme a break, my shoes weren't some salvation army shoes. They were quite expensive \""plaid original chucks\"" that had character and style. They still denied me in after I complained saying I have never had a problem in LA, SF, NY, VEGAS but clearly Scottsdale I do. \n\nAnyways, after the $10 cover charge, they gave me a ticket for a free fish taco or something. Sick. I don't want to eat fish tacos at 11pm. This place reminded me of Cheesecake Factory after dark. Everyone is old. They don't have a DJ, instead they have a band that does bad covers of bad songs like \""Wind it Up\"" and \""Glamorous\"". \n\nWorst part? I saw old guys wearing phat farm tennis shoes and mandals. How the hell are mandals allowed at a club but trendy kicks aren't?\n\nAvoid this place at all costs unless you want to get picked up by a lonely horny housewife of Scottsdale. The themesong to this place should be Nelly's MANEATER.

This is my place for a pick me up after spending time at the RJC (courthouse). The staff are super friendly. The orders are processed fast. It is in the Bank of America building that also hold Social Security Office of Disability Adjudication and Review (ODAR). It is a prime location and the staff still work it. Even in the afternoon, they have goodies if you have not had a chance to eat and were working too hard. There is not a lot of setting here, but I rarely stay. I am usually walking in and back out to my office with my coffee and/or snack.

Seriously the most unattractive, demeaning thing I've ever witnessed! Almost no one gave even a dollar, and the women who did got pulled onto stage so the men could do disgusting things to them that looked like they hurt. Please do not go here!

When the parking lot was empty at 6:30 on a Friday night, we should have realized the warning signs of a bad meal coming. The host took forever to pick one of the many empty tables at which to seat us. There were no issues with the speed or relative friendliness of service, except that there were no refills offered until our meal was complete. Our main concern was the very poor quality of the food. I am a certified BBQ judge with ten years of competition experience. I have seen a lot of Q, good, bad, and in between. This was bad pork. It was very poorly pulled. All fat and grease. No good pprtions of meat at all. The color was gray and the texture was slimy. The taste was marred significantly by the poor meat quality. The portion was shockingly small. Our sides were also sub par. We try a lot of BBQ on our travels and this was a highly regrettable experience. The kid's meal chicken tenders were good. Order that if you must eat here.

I've had two awesome experiences at Gypsy Rose so far. \n\nWe stopped in on the annual Friday the 13th $13 Tattoo day, and while I was happy with the results from Lloyd, I was just as impressed with the service, friendliness and professionalism of the other employees--particularly the assistant who was taking forms and keeping everything in order while the place filled up like gangbusters.\n\nI came in for a larger, more serious piece by Lloyd a few weeks later. He fit me into his schedule and drew a clean, impressive piece right in front of me. I couldn't be more excited with the execution. I've seen some of the work of the other tattoo artists and it's just as impressive.\n\nThe location is right off the freeway and centrally located in the Metro area. The price was more than reasonable, the service was consistently some of the best I've had in a tattoo parlor, and everything was clean and professional. If you're in the market for a tattoo, stopping by this place is an absolute must.

I actually really enjoy this hotel. The rooms are remodeled, the hotel staff are very accomodating, and my experience was great!

Maybe I wouldn't know about Hobe Meats (pronounced Hoe-bee Meets) if I didn't work nearby or enjoy the occasional Groupon, but I'm glad I know.\n\nSince last year, they've added a fresh coat of paint to the place, brightened it up and added a few more items to the freezer of exotic meats. \n\nThe thing to buy here is beef. I'll gladly pay $120 for a 3 bone prime grade standing rib roast because when you taste the difference between this and what you get at your grocery store, you know where the extra money went. Same goes for the ribeyes. \n\nThis is the only place in the whole damn state of Arizona that sells chopped cherry peppers for sammiches, too and I have missed those since I left home to move here almost two years ago.

The man working there was very nice, but the food was not.

food was pretty good here although the menu could use some updating. bentley's seems to be stuck in the 80s with their lobster tropicana and crepe suzette. perhaps rumaki was once an amuse bouche ;)\n\nhad the beef carpaccio and the miro, a meaty pacific fish, similar to sea bass. both were excellent.\n\nwe were not offered a wine list until requested which was odd. my colleague and i were both women so not sure if this was an oversight or commentary on our ability to fend for ourselves in the south.

Yes, you can get delivery in Charlotte! And, not just pizza. \n\nI've used Foodie Call serveral times and as mentioned below in other reviews they are fast, on time and fresh. You can pay online too so no need for cash.\n\nHere are just a few places you can order from: 131 Main, Aria, Dolce, Pio Pio, Flying Biscuit, Sonoma, Press, Maharani, Tavern on the Tracks....lots more.

Waited about an hour and a half for delivery. When the food arrived my chicken Caesar salad had no chicken, and none of our sides of ranch were included. I called the restaurant to tell them there was no chicken in my salad, and my dressing was not on the side like I had asked, and although they did offer to send me another, I didn't feel like waiting another hour and a half. Sad, because I had high hopes but the food is decent. Maybe we will have better luck with pick up or eat-in.

Best Sonic EVER!

To start with, I tried 'Idli' (with Chutney and Sambar). The Idli was way off course and actually didnt taste like one! The chutney probably had 10% coconut (as compared to 100% coconut that I have come across many Udupi Cafe's across US) and the Sambhar....absolutely pathetic!!! Moving to main course, all the curries were highly reduced and were not that delectable. I am keeping this review short and sweet because you cant write much about how pathetic food was for the price that I paid. I am never going back to this place any time in my life.

No flavor. Paper thin sausage on pizza. No sauce. \nJust not worth the 7.50 for lunch. \nSuggestion. Use more seasoning, sauce etc.

Cozy place with old brick charm that manages to successfully bridge the 602km, two countries (Slovenia and Croatia), and the Adriatic Sea to offer both traditional Serbian and Italian fare. Somehow, this formula works!\n\nCame here on a late fall Friday night around 6:00pm and was able to get seated immediately, though things soon changed. By 7:00 there were people waiting in line to sit outside, though the enclosed (and actually acceptably warm) patio had plenty of space. The takeaway: arrive early, this place fills up!\n\nInside, the tables are spacious, not too crowded, and a good place to relax! Service was stellar and happy to help us take advantage of the $3 draft Stella or Fat Tire beer specials. Well played!\n\nWe ordered the much acclaimed Ground Beef Burek and the Wood Grilled Vegetable Sandwich. As fate would have it, right after ordering the table next to us began wafting a buttery-garlic aroma that resulted in 8.0 rumble in my tummy. We had to call back the waitress for an order of the garlic bread sticks. Yum.\n\nFood was all-around delicious. The Burek is simply amazing: fillo dough encasing beef and onions. While the description made me think of flaky fillo dough like on Greek spanikopida, it is actually more on the doughy side (in a very positive way!). Definitely worth it and I would )and plan to) come back for the express purpose of getting this again.\n\nI had a few bites of the Vegetable Sandwich and it was a very well put together mix of veggies and cheese. The garlic bread sticks were good, but I was expecting more based on the smell--probably worth getting once.\n\nI shall return to sample more Serbian food!

This is absolutely the best Middle Eastern food in the valley. It is inexpensive and perfect every time. Must warn you about the wait..... if you want to get back to work in time eat early like 11:00 if your not there before 1:00 it is standing room only...... you can get a little shopping done as well it is also a small market.

Never had a problem with this place before until today. My dog had a bad hacking cough. I called and asked if I should bring him in- they told me yes, it was important if he had kennel cough. I made an appointment. \nMy boyfriend waited about an hour after the appointment time, and not only had they not seen the dog, but they couldn't tell him when a vet might be available. I understand the wait if I walk in or if there is an emergency, but don't tell me it's important that I come in and then make me wait over an hour, even though I was on time and there was no emergency situation. It's the first time we've gotten up and walked out of the vet's office. \nIt really bothers me when a business accepts an appointment that it does not honor. Don't accept the appointment then. Had they told me that there were other appointments and I couldn't be seen at that time, I simply would have rescheduled.

Stayed here for my 50th birthday this past summer, loved it! We had no issues with an early check in, but we stayed Sunday through Wednesday, so not sure how it is on a Friday or Saturday. The interior is pretty cool, imo. The staff was friendly, the rooms were nice, the pool was fun, the restaurants were all great, especially the breakfast buffet. The first night we ate at the burger joint and we each had a shake that has alcohol in it, fabulous, although I will say Vegas is not exactly as cheap as it once was, the bill for 2 burgers, 2 fries and the 2 shakes was just over a Grant$$. Hotels is in a good location and convenient to lot of things to do on the Strip. I enjoyed this hotel and I would definitely stay there again.

This place would get a 0 if possible. The lady was rude and mean and followed us around the crowded store. When asked why she just looked at us, gave us a stare down and eyed me up and down like a criminal. This place is over priced, the lady is rude and I would never spend a dime in this store. I have heard nothing but awful things from everyone I know who has gone into this store and don'tk know how they are still in business. Now that I have experienced it myself I say move on, save your money and time and frustration.

Ok so the people that gave 5 star and lasting a month must work there to boost their ratings. I went there with 4 of my girls for pedis, manis, and eye brows amd we all had the same expierence. I got a deluxe thinking it would be amazing and it was a complete waste of money. She made my toe nails not even and one side high then the other and when I asked her to fix it, she argued with me!! Her boss came over to tell her to fix it and so we went in the back so she could do my brows and she arugued with me in the back room and said they looked perfect! Then I noticed she didn't get off all the dead skin, so I went to the manager and he took out a nail fill and did it so hard my dry skin that the next day they were burning and all red!! I called to tell him about it, and he told me I don't know what I'm talking about and I must of done something after I left!! Such jerks I will NEVER go back nor will any of my friends!! P.s. it took 3 hours to get toes and nails done because only one person knew how to do designs!!

Not my favorite of the outlets.. felt like I was at a westfield mall. Nothing too special.

I wondered why my dad took me here several years ago. Its because its cheap and almost a good competition to Rio's World Buffet. I think the price is $8 per person for lunch. I did not have a Orleans Club Card, but $8 is a deal. The Sahara Hotel has $8.99 Buffet with a Card, but with the Orleans, you probably would save $1 or $2. I remember my total was around $16. Very Good Deal!!\n\nThey had Salad, Mexican or Tex-Mex Station, Chinese Station, American, Italian, and their own big Dessert Station. I mainly went to American Station since I always fall in love with Mac N Cheese. I had sandwiches, and bunch of other Americana stuff. They had a lot of food, but I only had three plates. Like my headline says...I am a Big Guy, but I don't eat a lot.\n\nOrleans is away from the strip, but somewhat is small scaled version of the Rio. Orleans has their French Market Buffet and Rio has their World Buffet. If you are on a budget and not wait a long line...go to the Orleans. Its pretty cheap for lunch without a Club Card and food is better than the Sahara Buffet and probably as close to the Rio Buffet without the high price. \n\nLunch Ends around 3:30pm. Not sure what time Dinner starts during the weekdays. Very reasonable and not too crowded, but the food is very good and not seem too be mass-produced.\n\nHave Fun here and Keep Yelping!!

My goal when flying is to waste as little money as possible getting from point A to point B. Spirit had me believing that they would help me achieve this goal...that is until the extra $80 for carry on bags popped up, the extra charge for choosing your seats became apparent, and the janky plane had both broken seats and negative leg room. I am only 5'7\"" and my legs were smashed into the seat of the person in front of me. Sorry person! \n\nWill I fly Spirit again? Maybe, but once you factor in all of the extra charges, the dirty planes, the lack of legroom, the broken seats, the B squad flight attendants, and the general stupidity of a policy that makes it more expensive to carry on your own bag than to check it, probably not.

The show is not impressive; the older singers really can't sing anymore (not that it stops them) but the fiddle player was good. The food is ok if overpriced but about as you would expect for the tourists they are most likely to rope in. You can get a similar meal at the Ponderosa for a lot less. I can't imagine a local coming back twice. Better to eat at Ponderosa and rent a western movie. \n\n The facility is best seen at night; in daylight it shows that they confuse poor maintenance with old time rusticity. Buildings with missing doorknobs, board sidewalks that give underfoot. Old rusty junk cars only half hidden from the public. A sort of drainage ditch with stagnant green water in it. They probably just need a good manager because the place just plainly isn't cared for. They proudly call it a \""working ranch\"" but clearly they are not doing much work on it. I've seen abandoned movie sets at Ghost Ranch in better shape than this setup. So go if you like country western music and don't have standards that are too high.

Drinks wise, it was pretty good. Still doesn't top Fat Tuesday

Went there for a early dinner with the family before our flight. I cant tell you how close in seconds I was to paying for the ice tea my husband ordered and just leaving. Yikes! the prices were out of this world! $14 for a burger and fries, seriously?! I decided to give the benefit of the doubt and order anyways, dumb choice. The food is just mediocre and the prices on the high side for sure. \nI ordered a chicken burger with onion rings. You get 4 onion rings exactly because they are large ones. And my chicken tasted like it had been taken out of the freezer, boiled and slapped on a bun. So not impressed, and not enough food on the plate for the price. \nMy husband had a mushroom burger ($14) with fries. Cold fries and a very slim portion, come on people thats the cheapest part of the meal! Burger was very average. \nDecor is kind of intersting and was seated quickly. Also the drinks are just as over priced as the food. You are clearly paying for the brand name of this establishment when you pay your check. There are other and better values in Vegas. I will not be eating there again next time Im in town.

I can't believe some of the reviews I'm reading, this is one of the worst italian restaurants in the city. I went with a group and they got the $5 pasta or pizza option. Their pizzazs came out burnt and tasteless. I ordered from the early bird menu and chose the stuffed shells. \""How could they screw that up?\"" I thought. The french onion soup was served with a block of barely melted mozzarella and burnt bread inside the soup. The broth was far too oily and tasteless. The salad fared little better. The house dressing was 90% oil, with the only saving grace being the marinated carrots. The shells were by far one of the worst things I've ever eaten. They were hard shells, filled with a gritty, salty cheese mixture in some of the rankest tomato sauce I have ever had. It tasted old and acidic and was so bad I only ate one shell. The early bird also included dessert and a choice of brownie or vanilla ice cream. I hoped to save the night with a nice small dish of vanilla ice cream, but what I got was a scoop of freezer-burned off-brand ice cream. \n\nI will never go back here again.

A very fun show to go to. Its actually a full on kind of show vs. just dancing which surprised me. Their dancing wasn't as on point as i expected but it was cool to see so many different genres included.\n\nGet a seat in the front and they might bring you up on state to be a prop on for the show.\n\nThe show itself is good, not excellent but its the first show i haven't fallen asleep in. When its dark, music is playing my eyes just want to close. i've nodded off to phantom, wicked, zumanity, beauty and the beast, etc.\n\nThe show is 90 minutes long, but actually really starts before that. There's no intermission so if you need to use the bathroom just go use it.\n\nGot tickets at http://www.yelp.com/biz/tix-4-tonight-las-vegas#hrid:z4fylt5DS-8_dRipQof04w for $60 for section C.

From what I can recall, the burger was juicy with just the right amount of pink in the middle. The Guiness Shake, one of the best shakes I have EVER had! The sweet potato fries, not your soggy type but a crisp flaky feeling of goodness coupled with an amazing lunch experience in Vegas.\n\nWill I go back? Most definitely. It's time to try some of their other meals on menu.

I went here,november 9 around 2ish.This starbucks got the worst costumer service i have ever experience ever!, i think they need to retrain their crew or i think best is to change their crew.the register person and the barista got a terrible attitude towards their costumers(specially the gay guy-barista)

A while back I was driving along Eastern, and saw Bread and Butter as I drove by. It's in a strip mall (as most places here in Vegas are), but it looked interesting from a far. I don't know if it was the lettering, or maybe the name, but when I joined Yelp I saw all the great reviews and decided to bookmark it. This morning, Sunday, I tried it out...\n\nI got there around 8:30am, and to my surprise there wasn't a line! I must have gotten there right at the right time because about 10 minutes later groups of people started piling in. Being that it was my first time, I didn't really know what to expect. Let's just say I couldn't wipe the smile off of my face. I walked in and was greeted by multiple upbeat employees, and as I looked around at the tables, everyone seemed so happy. The place smelled fantastic, and behind the glass partition was loads of delicious baked goods! If I could have bought everything, I would have, but I figured since so many people raved about the ham and egg waffle sandwich, I'd get that. I liked it, but it was almost too rich for breakfast...maybe if I shared it with someone I would have felt differently. If I were to get it again, I think I would get the bechamel sauce on the side and add it as I pleased. The eggs were light and fluffy, the waffles had good flavor, but lost their crisp due to the bechamel sauce poured over the top. Mine had bacon, I can't complain about that, and melted cheese as well.\n\nThe ladies to my right had cinnamon rolls that looked good, and the men to my left had waffles that they raved about! I want to give this place 5 stars, but I first want to see if the baked goods taste as good as they look... \n\nThere was a killer deal going on this weekend...buy a $10.00 gift card, get a second $10.00 gift card for free! I'm all for saving money, and bought a few. I'm looking forward to my second visit, and can't wait to give the baked goods a try...I'll let you know what I think!

By far one of the best Mexican places downtown. Their menu is not just burritos with American cheese like the other typical so called \""Mexican\"" places around the corner. Their chef has great traditional plates that you will find within the colonial belt in central Mexico. Skip the trip to the south and come try a torta, enfrijolada style. The drinks are great, definitely a strange place to find a great spot but it goes to show that with good food, everyone will come and come back.

OT has become somewhat of a tradition for my leaving town breakfast (I go to the area 7 or 8 times a year on business and usually leave for CA in the am).\n\nUsually great coffee, alway great bacon and pancakes! Overall really good quality food and service. Really interesting take on bearkfast dishes - if you feel the need for something a little different... \n\nThe decor is bright and cheery, so it's a great way to prepare for the travel ahead.

Friday's used to be soooo good years ago. Their service has always been excellent but their food has gone down so much over the years.\nWe ordered their potsticker appetizer. It was doughy. Costco sells better tasting. My husband ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich and he commented you can easily tell it was frozen beforehand and it would have been better taste and money-wise to go to Wendy's and ordered a better tasting sandwich. I ordered the Cajun Shrimp & Chicken Pasta. When I read alfredo sauce, I'm thinking creamy. It was the complete opposite. It was covered in grease and there maybe was a teaspoon of melted cheese on top. There was a thick layer of butter on the bottom. \nDon't go here if you want good food. Go elsewhere. We wish we would have gone to Logan's or Red Robin or anywhere else but here and spend money on food that was good.

Casanova Brothers is the best! The owners are there everyday and make a point of introducing themselves and learning your name. Pretty cool when there is a family/friend owned business that works well and they want to make you a part of their family. The pizza is amazing of course, but they have really good sandwiches and salads as well.

I love hot dogs and expected much more of this place. It didn't seem expensive when seeing the menu but the hot dogs are really small, you don't get much of each topping and they charge you separately even for the bun! I felt ripped-off and will definitely not return. Simple food should stay simple.

This is one of my favorite hookah lounges in town. They have great service with really nice staff. After having gone there for years, the entire staff knows my name and will always greet me when I sit down. \n\nThe food there is always really good. My favorites being The Chicken NaNa, the spicy Mediterranean chicken wrap and the hummus. They also have great teas and coffees that are always enjoyable.\n\nThe hookah is the real reason I go there though. They have a great selection with really great quality tobacco. Some of my favorite mixed being Pumkin and vanilla, sweet november, bunny bomb, Saphire, and Godfather grape mint.\n\nMy one complaint is that on the weekends it turns into a club environment. When I go I like to go to chill and relax. The DJ is usually so loud on the weekends that you cant even have a conversation with someone sitting right next to you, which also makes ordering a pain in the ass. \n\nOverall though, a great place with great prices. .

My food was delivered an hour later then they said to expect it. That wouldn't have been as annoying if the food was worth the wait. Chicken fingers were burnt, salad was limp and slimy along with having bits of black debris mixed in it which was definitely not pepper or any seasoning of sort. I didn't even eat it. This was my first time ordering from this place, and my last.

Spaghetti was the overwhelming choice at the table and it was worth it. The sauce is not a strong tomato taste as most Italian restaurants, almost had a light cream added to it. The meat was perfect. A lot of crumbled beef on the sauasage. Excellent. \n\nWould have been 5 stars with better service. It seems to be a common theme in Vegas, mediocre service at the restaurants. I think we asked for coffee 7-8 times before being served. Just not very attentive and no sense of urgency. \n\n5 star food and 3 star service gets you 4 stars.

I can come back to this place anytime! I always recommend this Mexican Gourmet restaurant to all my friends when they are up to trying something new. \nI love ordering the street tacos with rice and beans. The Cochinito Pibil meat is very delicious. The horchata is mouth watering! The horchata is served with pineapples, strawberries, and peanuts at the top of the drink. \nIt's a great place for a date, lunch, or after work happy hour. I wouldn't recommend big parties.

Bear's is a great neighborhood bar. I like the outside patio esp in the winter. I've been here several times, but only ate here once. I had the jalapeno poppers. They were good. They have karaoke on Thursdays, but im usually out of there by that time(not into country music). Happy hour is pretty good can't beat 3 dollar locals. It tends to be very packed on Fridays around 6 with the \""family\"" types. The lines are pretty long, and it's hard to find seating at this time. The only drawback about this place is the parking lot. It is very hard to find parking at peak times, and you pretty much have to go \""off roading\"" into this unfinished lot. Other then that little setback I will def. be coming back for more brews.

I want to begin by saying that I am a HUGE fan of container park! My family and I visit very often and we have not had a single negative experience until now. I visited this little boutique and loved many of the things they carry. I tried on a couple of shirts and decided to purchase a top. It was close to 9pm so I quickly made my purchase and left the park since we had our kids with us and there is a curfew at the park. I brought the shirt home and showed it to my husband who was not impressed. The next day we brought it back to the store to exchange it. There are no returns allowed at this store which I thought was fine since they have cute things. The woman at the store was friendly until I told her I had an exchange. I pulled the top out of the original sales bag and handed it over. I began to look around for an exchange and then she said that the shirt had a dirty mark on it. She immediately told me that she would not be able to accept it. I told her that I took it from the store to the house and then back to the store, barely taking it out to show my husband. She started flipping through the racks in a condescending way and saying she didn't see how it could have gotten dirty here. I told her that maybe someone accidentally marked it when they were trying it on in the store since the dressing room is a little small with just a curtain and hardwood floors. I told her that the lighting is dimmer at night and neither the saleswoman or I noticed the mark the night before, She texted the owner and I waited, she was singing and tying a ribbon on a candle and acting as if I wasn't there! I waited for a while with no answer from \""the owners.\"" I understand that owners want to protect themselves from tacky people who return worn items and such, but she made me feel like I was one of those people right off the bat, and i wasn't! The customer service here is terrible and beware for slimming mirrors throughout the store since there are no returns allowed, or exchanges, apparently! $54 later, I won't be shopping here ever again, nor will any of my friends!

For the price, you cant beat it!\n\nMy boyfriend and I signed up in July. We both love it! He is definitely the more athletic type and I've never worked out on a regular basis. Being out of shape and not knowing what to expect I was nervous going into my first class, but everyone was super welcoming.\n\nThe classes between 5-6:30 do get pretty packed, but just get there 20-15 minutes early and you should be fine. \n\nMy only complaint would probably be the parking. Its a small lot that's not well lit. I don't care about walking, I care that its dark out and I have to walk a distance to my car. \n\nOther than that I LOVE this place!

Well. Was told to visit for the most professional drink in town. Go to B&T. What a joke ! Insulted and profiled with my boys by some clown. \""You sure you want to come in here\"". Ross the \""owner\"" starts the experience Well your drinks were to sweet , no balance Evrything tasted like the Weak service !!! Worst service in 10 years in Phoenix. Keep it up Ross.!!!

Cool place. I am not really a \""real\"" coffee drinker..I am more of a fake one, but this place has a lot of other items to offer. They have lots of sweets/baked goods and quite a few of them come from the neighboring bakery \""Edible Art.\"" They also have some prepared dishes (dips, soups, sandwiches) which come from the ever-popular \""Something Classic Cafe\"" on East Blvd. I also would recommend their energy/meal bar they sell at the counter. They are tasty and packed with a ton of essential nutrients to keep you going through the day! \n\nThe reason I like this place is because it is so eclectic! It offers wine and live music at night, coffee and baked goods during the week, fun shabby chic furniture for sale, art for sale and beautiful jewelry for sale. The home and jewelry items are a little expensive but very unique and nice quality. I love the fact that everything is from LOCAL artists. Supporting this place is essential! :)\n\nI have only been here during the day and the only annoying aspect of Fabo is all the soccer moms that gather here after their morning jogs. It tends to get a little loud so while wifi is offered, it is hard to get much done in there at certain times. That is minor in comparison to all the other positives! But, had to hate a little...:)

My review is only on the food from just one visit and not on the abundant selection of over thirty craft brews they offer on tap. I also noticed a selection of wines on tap and a very nice large dog friendly patio.\n\nI ordered what I think was called the avocado salad and it really was among one of the best salads I ever had anywhere. It was unique and interesting and something better than what I would have at home because I wouldn't take the time to smoke my own beets. The combination of creamy avocado, mild goat cheese and smoked beets with those tasty little just the right amount of toasted almonds was quite a sensation in my mouth. I will have to steal that one as it really was that good. The greens were very fresh and above average and the dark meat chicken option was tasty and cooked just right. I also enjoyed the supreme segments of grapefruit as they added so much brightness and freshness and really cut the richness in the salad. The salad had everything going on it was really good.\n\nMy husband had the matador sandwich, it was pink beef with onions, peppers, mushrooms, horseradish Havarti cheese and a pretzel roll with two dipping sauces and fries. I didn't taste it but I thought it looked good. My husband said it was good but would have liked the peppers cooked more and more of them.\n\nI would like to try the beer sampling option next time.\n\nI thought the meals were reasonably priced. If I remember correctly the total including tax was around $23.00.

Gave them a try 10/22/12. Best of luck to a beginner's stab at a restaurant. I doubt they will be around long:\nObservations:\n1. Main entrance is not used, everyone who came in after us could not find the door. I actually had to point the direction for at least six customers who stood at the locked doors.\n2. \""Market Price\"" board at entry is small, dark, and unreadable.\n3. Spartan surrounding devoid of any decor\n4. Music; radio station blaring loudly and preventing normal conversation.\n5. Service staff, though eager, are ill prepared and trained.\nFood:\n1. Calamari appetizer, typical batter fried rings served with as much lemon wedges as product. A small basket for $9.00...\n2. Shrimp Po-Boy, shrimp was adequate but no better than frozen batter fried from the grocery. $13.99...\n3. Parmesan garlic fries, add $1 for standard out of the bag potatoes coated liberally in garlic with a touch of Parmesan cheese. Side order of same is $4.99.\n4. Ice tea and soda, $2.50 a glass.\n5. Whole Tilapia battered and fried (overly fried) served with large serving of plain white rice and a small cup of Coleslaw, $15.99.\nCondiments:\n1. Nothing is offered or provided. Sweetener, salt, pepper, soy sauce, ketchup, eating utensils (plastic), etc., must be requested.\nMaybe it was a bad night but the prices remain out of line for the quality and dining experience.

Review for when this used to be American's mart gas station before fills took over.\n\nDo not purchase gas from this location, they are selling \""bad\"" gas that is burning out spark plugs and causes corrosion in the engine. Engine will need to be siphoned of all remaining gas and flush the engine to remove the remaining residue, as well as replace the spark plugs. Phone number for this location goes straight to voice mail and not able to find a corporate office phone number for Luck Stop aka American's Mart.

Be careful if you try to shop there near closing time because the entire staff will try to hustle you out versus helping you make decisions on expensive products. Their loss I guess.

I love love love Gigi's cupcakes! I don't know what everyone is talking about when they say the cupcakes are bland; I go in on Fridays specifically to get the salted caramel because it's literally to die for. I only gave it four stars because the frosting is a little over-whelming, but no complaints about the taste

such a bad meal. i couldnt believe what i was served. the prime rib was a total joke. thin and overcooked. this place has got to go. the goldcoast is really doing a dis service to its patrons. when you go to a restaurant on a friday night and its EMPTY at eight pm you know there is a problem. bad side dishes and no thought put into their menu. i would say its thumbs down on this place.

I drove out to Vegas with some friends and when we were about an hour away, the A/C went out. I had just taken my car in to my shop back home the weekend before in preparation for the trip, so I wasn't too happy about that. Found Max Auto Care through Yelp and decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did. Ali was so nice and helpful through the whole process. He explained what happened and what different options I had to fix it. We ended up having to special order a part and had to stay an extra two days and Ali offered to help us find a good rate for the extra days, then drove us back to our hotel. When my car was finally fixed, the total cost was less than what my guys back home would've charged. It's a tough situation, having your car break down when you're on vacation. It'd be really easy to take advantage of someone in that situation and I'm pleased to say Ali didn't. He made me feel so much better about the whole ordeal and I would definitely recommend going to see him.

I am NOT a restaurant snob. In general I think Buca is great, with decent food, big portions, and a fun atmosphere to hang out with friends.\n\nBut the service at this particular location was pretty bad. We stopped by to get lunch before a Pirates game, but the place was packed and the line was really long. We tried again for dinner after the game, and again the wait was very long. We only got a table right away by being one of the few groups willing to sit on the patio after a very hot day out in the sun.\n\nOur pitcher of sangria came pretty quickly, but we had to spend a good ten minutes staring at it longingly before we got any glasses we could use to actually drink it. We never got any bread, which I'm pretty sure they automatically serve to every table, right? None of our drinks were ever refilled (not even the water, which sort of sucked; see above about spending the previous 4 hours in bleacher seats in direct sun). Our food came after a pretty long wait, and was typical Buca food- tasty by my standards, anyway! We ordered dessert, but our brownie sundae had no brownies. That was a pretty big letdown, let me tell you.\n\nMostly I felt bad for the servers. It's not like they were just standing around while we waited for food, they were constantly running back and forth and looked really stressed. There was a big group at the table next to us (a bachelorette party, I think) and they didn't get several of their dishes until well after everyone else at their table had finished eating. Understandably they sent them back. Between running to serve all of her tables and trying to apologize to this angry group about a problem that wasn't even her fault, their poor waitress was in tears by the time we left.\n\nFrom my experience and other reviews, it seems like they are chronically understaffed. It is a very busy location in a very popular area, and it sounds like the management has not gotten that memo. The end result is that the customers end up entertaining themselves while they wait for their food by chatting with the other tables about how bad the service is. That WAS at least entertaining, but not exactly the reason I stopped by.

Lets see, locally used organic fresh ingredients with 2 business owners that met in the industry and have a combined 30 yrs. in the kitchen! I'm a foodie, so off i go to Flipside Cafe, btw its only been open 1 week! So I originally wanted to have Breakfast/Brunch, but I was told that it was lunchtime. So I stayed and had lunch, WOW!!!! I didn't expect to be knocked off the proverbial ladder. I had the special, BBQ Chicken Sandwich and Pan Roasted Potatoes. It didn't appear to be much as the chicken and the ingredients seemed to have gotten lost inside that AWESOME BUTTERY/GARLIC BRIOCHE BUN. Wait for It-- Flavor City 101!! In the time I was there I witnessed a very new business owner, Amy, I didn't get a chance to meet Jon, run the front of the restaurant w/ tireless enthusiam. Out of the 7 people, including myself, these were the items ordered: 3 Chicken Sandwiches, 1 Hamburger, 1 Open Faced Turkey Plate, 1 Turkey Chili, and 1 Shrimp (Soy)Chorizo and Grits. Everyone was asked how they enjoyed the food, and the overall consensus was on par w/ my opinion. Thumbs Way Up, Awesome, The Best I've had, one person just shook their head and gave Two Thumbs Up. Bravo Flipside Cafe, you're on the way to a bigger location, sooner than expected! My name is D'Shawn and will definitely be going back to visit!

I came across an article on Gallo Blanco and was intrigued by the write up that I wanted to go and try it. The chef is Doug Robson who was born in Mexico, and came to local fame as the original chef at La Grande Orange. \n\nOn a note of whimsy my wife and I decided to make the long haul from the North Desert Mountains down to that resurging downtown Phoenix area. Of course I'm always skeptical on the idea that down Phoenix is turning into a real downtown where people are on the streets after 5pm. However; one has to be careful using this measure as a sign that turnaround is happening as no one is on the streets on a hot September night.\n\nUpon arriving at the address the navigation system lead us to, I recall thinking \""this just doesn't look good\"". The building was one of those nondescript 8 story 1970's building with a \""Clarendon Hotel\"" sign and in another boxy red sign \""Gallo Blanco\"". At the door to the Clarendon was a glowing orb that was reminiscent of something Spock may have had in his bedroom during \""Pon Farr\"".\n\nSummoning up the courage of the force, we got out and ventured into this quirky environment and I'm glad that we did. We entered through the hotel and the restaurant literally runs into the lobby although they are two very distinct and non related businesses. The restaurant itself reminded me of the scene in Seattle in the early 90's. It was youthful with a funky vibe going on and had Chicano art dotting the walls.\n \nWe decided to sit in the bar as it seemed to have a lively scene going on. Our waitress was a very hip and cool gal, from of all places, New Jersey by way of Colorado. My wide ordered the White Sangria and I asked our waitress what she recommended. When she said that they fresh squeeze all their juices, I immediately ordered a margarita. You used to be able to find a good margarita in this town, but now all you find is syrupy pre mixed crap. Well this, my friends, was a great and fabulously refreshing margarita. You just can't go wrong with fresh squeezed lime juice.\n\nAfter tasting the margarita I noticed that they also had Augua Fresca's and I had a feeling these would be good as well. We ordered the Honey Dew fresca and Wow, what a refreshing drink and not to sweet.\nWe ordered some appetizers, as we like to sample a lot of different flavors at new restaurant. We started with the guacamole. \n\nThey charge for chips and salsa but if you order the guac they bring chips and salsa. The guac was very good, but the chips left a little on the table. Of course I am a chip snob and only fresh made chips piping hot ever perk my interest. I found these a little flat. The salsas were okay with the tomatillo being good and the red salsa being a little spicy but nothing stellar. They were also served in squeeze bottles. Guess the economy has impacted everyone.\n\nWe decided to order one more app which was the \""Chicarron de Queso\"", or for the laymen: \""Fried Cheese\"". While this has nothing to do with Chicahrrones its fried Manchengo cheese and is really good, but extremely rich, which our waitress did warn us about. \nAfter that we each ordered the entire line up of Tacos (steak, pork, fish, vegetable, and shrimp). They are served street style with little fresh made corn tortillas. \n\nThe fish tacos were made with Alaskan Halibut and were delicious. The steak tacos had a wonderful flavor and the pork tacos created a \""tacos al pastor\"" simulation that was devine with a fresh bit of pineapple to sweeten things up. The shrimp taco didn't disappoint, and the vegetable tacos were the surprise of the night with a wonderful fresh and inviting flavor. We also ordered a Mexican ear of street corn. This is grilled and rolled in some mayo and Cojita cheese..yum yum yum.\n\nAt this point we were just too full for desert. The food has a wonderful freshness to it and I would definitely go back again. We have heard that the \""Chilaquiles Verdes\"" are really good as well.\n\nDress casual, adopt an easy going attitude, and leave all pretense at home and you will have a wonderful dining experience here. It does give one hope that central Phoenix may indeed be making a small comeback after all.

Dissapointment... \nThat was the feeling I left with. \nI have been wanting to go here for awhile. We finally made it in the other no\\ight for a cocktail. the decor is dark and romantic. They have movies in Spanish plaing on a big screen in the middle of the dining room.\nThe bathroom set up is strange. They are very clean and had really good smelling candles in them. The sinks are in the hall outside the bathroom. It's kinda cool and I'm sure many conversations happen there.\nWere the dissapointment happed was at the bar. It took a minute for someone to acknowlede us. \nI ordered a vodka soda. That was not what I got. I ended up with the flatest vodka tonic I have ever had, it was nasty. My guy got a really flat beer.\nIt took awhile for the bartender to comeback and check on us. He replaced my drink for a vodka soda, but again it had no bubbles at all. \nTo add insult to injury there were some drunk typical Tempe turds trying to start a fight with my boyfriend for absolutly no reason. \nMaybe I'm finally too old for Mill...

Something was very wrong with my food as I ended up pretty quick with stomach cramps and on the toilet for a few long hours. It was either the tortilla soup or my usual, the chicken philly. Either way, I will not be eating here again as this was clearly FOOD POISONING.\nBeer prices are still too reasonable to not come back, but all good things come to end and this one did in the toilet along with now old favorite sandwich.

Service is outstanding. Super friendly guy, good sized portions and he is not a stickler for the little extras. \n\nI had the felafels and three salads. All round good.\n\nIf you like Lebanese food and you are in the area you can't go wrong.\n\nI will go back next time I am in the area (which will be soon since House of Jazz is round the corner).

Cooper (my dog) and I love Pete & Mac's. The employees are great and love the daily report cards. Cooper is always very happy after a visit with his friends (four legged and the guardians).\n\nRecommend!!!!

I've eaten at several Filiberto's locations around the East Valley but this one does not get a high rating from me. I've received food at a full service restaurant faster than this fast food location. Most of the tables in the facility were dirty. The condiment bar was empty of all selections except for salsa and was dirty. Next time, I'll opt for the Garcia's across the street.

I am not sure what the fuss is about this place. I will give it points for a unique interior; I mean it is not very often that you can eat a plate of spaghetti while sitting in a giant velvet throne, but the food is very ho hum. I grabbed dinner there with some friends before heading to a concert in Glendale, the concert was after work, and it was a good middle meeting place. \n\nFor being an Italian restaurant, I thought the menu was really limited....nothing really unique, mostly just pasta and sauce combinations. The salad that you get with your meal is just the cheapo iceberg, which is not even worth eating. \n\nAlso, they advertise that they can make any of their pastas gluten-free, which excited my sister, but when she tried to order, she was informed that the only gluten-free sauce they have is the tomato, so she went with just a salad, once again, chock full of that icky iceberg lettuce. \n\nThere is way better Italian food out there people!

I was mildly okay with Julios because it was cheap and it never made extravagant claims to being very good. It's greasy, overly-cheesed \""Mexican\"" food that's bad for you. Sometimes that's what you want... the large, lousy portions for not much money with shredded bits of iceberg lettuce. Make no mistake, it's not good, but sometimes we all have our guilty pleasures and sub-adequate Mexican food happens to be one of mine sometimes--usually when I'm hungover or something.\n\nLast time I went there, I popped open a little salsa container for the chips and, Jesus Christ, it was a solidified gelatinous cube. It wasn't frozen, either. It was gelatin. It was this... ugh. It was denser than Jell-O, too, you could slice it with a plastic knife and it would continue standing on its own.\n\nAnd that's when I realized that what I was eating wasn't just bad food that's fun to treat yourself too every couple of months or a few times a year, I was eating a pile of failure. The novelty was gone. It's all fun and games until you see that salsa. It's like having fun drinking in a dirty dive bar, then you fall down on a pile of broken glass. The fun's over... clean up the glass, guys. Start making fucking salsa in a food processor and take some goddamn pride in what you do.

These donuts don't taste good anymore. They have an aftertaste like they are using a different type of oil

We had went to the old Satified Frog frequently and were excited. Ordered chicken and ribs. The chicken was not good at all. Dry overcooked yet still greasey. The ribs were tough and chewy. We had strawbwerry shortcake it was good. Its in a run down area, so was a little concerned at first. They have done a nice job with the resturant. It is nicer inside than the old one. The part that bothered me was the waitress that was doing everything, said oh yes the chicken is a little dry. Im sorry, but handed us a full check. No offer to replace with better food.

Self-proclaimed poutine-obsessed girl checking in. On my latest visit to Montreal my friend had the challenge of bringing me the best poutine in the area. \n\nI was in town for three days and was getting nervous when our schedules didn't match up on the first two days. However, the stars aligned on day three and I ended up with warm take-out poutine from Patati Patata in my hands. \n\nWhile this was actually my friend's second favorite poutine place, he thought I would prefer it over the other. \n\nHe ordered me one with peppers, onions, and shaved beef. I usually opt for the traditional but I'm glad he forced me to go beyond that. \n\nThe fries were crunchy on their own, but gave way to the gravy and became softer. This may sound bad, but I like when the fries can absorb the gravy without becoming mushy. \n\nThe cheese curds were the perfect temperature even after traveling. The outside of each nugget was just starting to become warm and gooey while the inside left a cooler, squeakier end to the bite. \n\nAll of the toppings worked together. I especially enjoyed the fresh and colorful peppers. I'm so used to poutine being different versions of brown, but the red and yellow peppers made the visual experience of my meal quite pleasurable. \n\nI can't say anything to the interior of the building, service, or really anything besides this one dish, but my poutine senses were thrilled and I could go back to the states a happy girl.

I went here and first off it looks like it belongs in Mexico. The menu is unsatisfactory looking with no price for the food. I ordered 3 burritos, one of which was bean and rice only. $23 all together! They said the bean and rice was $5!! So we asked for a receipt and the totals did not add up to $23, the items were not what we had ordered and were crossed out in pencil with diff names etc. I asked for a receipt that had the correct pricing and total so i can use it for a business write off and they got mad and told us to give the food back and they would return the money!! Fine!

The terrible service here results in bad coffee. The coffee here always tastes bad. Worse than every other Starbucks I go to. The staff doesn't listen to customers. I always ask for two pumps of cinnamon dolce in my iced coffee, but they always put the standard 6. I also asked for water once and the cashier just stood there doing nothing so I asked if I could get it now. She said no it will be waiting at the end. Laziness equals dissatisfied customers.

What a wonderful place!!! \n\nMy only gripe is that there was no sign coming out of the Jean Talon metro station to point you the right way to the market. Easy for locals but a little confusing for visitors like me. Thankfully nice folks pointed me the right direction. It was about a 10 minute walk to the market and I didn't expect it to be so huge! Love the fruits and vegetables selection, everything looked beautiful and even laid out perfectly! The flowers were gorgeous too. There were all these little cafes for a leisurely lunch. \n\nI was really impressed with the \""rent a bicycle\"" station next to the market. There's no such thing in California, at least not a do-it-yourself type of thing. \n\nMontreal keeps impressing me over and over again!
