OMG, I'm sooooo sad. I'm such an individual I need to look like everyone else....\n\nOk, so I got my emo/goth rant out of the way. So this review is specifically of Club Tranzylvania If you are drunk enough that you just want to dance and you don't care how much money you blow, then Tranz is all right. Seems like they might be hurting a little, as it was pretty much a ghost town all Friday night - didn't even need staff at the outside bar. \n\nTheir cover is too high, the drinks are too small and expensive, and the kids in there make me want to cry, but if you like the industrial type music, it's ok. Actually, I only go there when dragged with friends, but, given the right amount of preparation in the forms of black eyeliner and cheaper drinks beforehand, I can have a decent time. | 0 |
greasy pizza. after patting the pizza down the taste wasnt that bad but not worth the money. their side salad was absolutely DISGUSTING. no taste and soggy. we were there at like 10 at night and they only had pizza and no pasta. lame. i wouldve rather have gone to the mcds next to it or even hot dogs. eww. pass. plus they had pizza sitting out. then im assuming it was cold so they placed it back into the oven.. errr idk how i feel about that i guess it was still good and all but ehhh.. makes me think that it was old. eww | 0 |
I had high hopes for this restaurant. However, they ended once I was greeted at the door by a very unfriendly hostess. I had a reservation and had made it over a week in advance. Well, we arrive 10 minutes prior and are seated at a table that was very awkwardly placed, and literally a foot away from what would be another couple. I asked to be moved, as we wanted more privacy than this, and there were many other open tables. However, our request was not granted. \n\nSo fine, we tried to make the most of it. However, this was then followed up by a very unfriendly waitress, who went right along with hostess' attitude. The food was very good, and over priced. \n\nI would say, go if you are getting a good deal on happy hour wine, but stick to wine and skip the food. Maybe a place just for drinks, but even then, the wine list was not all that impressive, and I would recommend going down the street to Kazimierz or Postino's. | 0 |
Don't book group meetings here!!!!! This place is usually good and not badly priced, but tonight was just shameful for our group meeting. I should have sent back my $4 worth of a side salad (bag salad with no toppings except some onion strands, not the dinner entree chopped salad I ordered!!!) and at least got a few ribs and coke slaw (1/2 rack it was not!). Green chili came in an au jus size bowl! I don't usually complain as I've done more group event planning than most, but this one bites. Try their happy hour and their big burger for $8. At least it USE to be good. I hope someone approaches the restaurant on this one. The club members got taken big time, especially those that didn't prepay $20 and paid $25/person. Dessert at least made my stomach stop growling but it was an ice cream sandwich the size of an Oreo cookie? Pa-lease.... | 0 |
Everyone that comes to Pittsburgh must try Primanti Bros at least once. I have been there multiple times but this is my first review of the place. The sandwich is something to see and eat especially after a night of drinking. The original location is definitely the best especially for the people watching aspect. \n\nI chose the sandwich with bacon and cheese and it was definitely consistent with the other times I have been there, but I will say this after you have gone once you will never need to go back unless its late and you need something to soak up the alcohol. | 1 |
After such a great experience back in July (see Gregg M's review) we decided that this would be the perfect spot to go for a wedding \""reception\"". Special thanks to Sandra B from group sales at Total Rewards for making this group reservation for us.\n\nThe meal was everything I wanted it to be - impeccably delivered and absolutely delicious. I could not have asked for better service. I would say there was only one thing that may have put a damper on things had I not been in such a wonderful mood - but more on that later. My husband and I decided to get the Hells Kitchen tasting menu. We chose not to get the wine pairings since we wanted people to get what they felt like drinking, rather than be limited to what was part of the wine pairings. The sommelier was on hand to help us out with decisions. \n\ni personally decided I wanted a cocktail to start out with - though I don't remember the name of it, it was delicious with cucumber and gin and other subtle flavors that made it very refreshing and a perfect beginning to our meal. \n\nAs with our previous visit, the amuse bouche and third course were exactly the same as our previous visit. The scotch egg was as delicious as I remember it from July and the Beef Wellington - sublime. Though I will say after making it with a friend for New Years, I wish I this version would have had more of the duxelles that helps make the Wellington what it is - delicious \n\nThe differences: The first course was a beet salad. Perfectly roasted beets with a hint of horseradish and the second course - though it was a scallop risotto, the risotto was made with farro, black trumpets and pecorino cheese (I have to say I think I liked the differences!). \n\nThough this was not a different course - it bear mentioning all by itself. Dessert. How can you not like brown butter ice cream? Pair that with some sticky toffee pudding and you have the best dessert ever (yes even better than chocolate!). Heaven!\n\nThe only down side was the cognac service. I really wish they would have explained to all of my guests what cognacs they had and what the price points were. They brought out the Louis the XIII for this service ($200/glass) as well as some other much less expensive choices. Though there were a few people who know cognacs and can truly appreciate the differences in a Louis XIII, I'm not sure if all of the guests that ordered Louis XIII would have, had they known its cost. For the most part - some only saw the pretty bottle. \n\nEven with this one slight hiccup - We still had a 5-star experience. Thanks for a great meal! | 1 |
Dont go here if you want service. The servers are impossible to get service from. & when I did finally order I waited an hour and a half for nachos just to hear that \""They gave my order away to another table\"".Wait another 30 mins.... finally get my order. & then when the bill comes not even comped or discounted. | 0 |

Tina's is now in Gilbert on the southeast corner of Cooper and Warner. Tina informed us that she's still working on the sign, so don't expect to spot it from the road (it's next to Blew Smoke Cigars if you need a hint). We loved Tina's. We set out to order the combo plate for two and Tina told us, no one order would be fine for lunch :) She was correct it was a lot of food. It was delicious and well prepared. Tina chatted with us for a while and that was fun. We'll return. | 1 |
Vegas.... slot machines, beer and cigs. That's all you need to survive.\n\nfood items are a little over priced. $5 for bag of trail mix?\n\nthey people are nice. \nthe place is clean and organized.\nbeer choices are standard fare, but nice and cold.\n\nthey have pretty much everything you need for a mini-vacation.\nsun-tan lotion, chips, cards, beer, coffee, milk, cereal and condoms....\n\n**bonus: lots of strippers shop here :) | 1 |
Gut-busting hilarity, provocative, uncensored, beautifully amazing feats of human strength. Raunchy, yes, but not just for the sake of shock value. This show is a finely-tuned piece of art with many different facets. You can go TackyVegas and see Celine, you can go PredictableVegas and see a show on the Cirque menu, or you can get your money's worth and then some (for half of the price of most others), and see the one and only Absinthe. I'll go every time that I'm in Vegas. | 1 |
Last time going there was a disappointment. It looks like they are cutting back on the meat slicing on the sandwich. 1 2 3 pieces of meat then move on to the condiments.\nIf I'm going to pay for an$ 8.00 sandwich...WERE'S THE BEEF?\nSorry Larry your a great guy, but give them a sandwich to come back for. | 0 |
This place is one of the cutest/coolest restaurants that I have been to. The overall ambiance is great w/ the unique furniture, trendy dressed waiters/waitresses the rock music in the background.... As for the food, it was pretty good. We did order their famous pretzel & cheese fondue, but I was a bit disappointed because the fondue looked like it was half eaten because they didn't fill the pot up all the way. They should at least get smaller pots OR fill it up all the way! haha! i also had the turkey pastrami on a pretzel bun... The pretzel bun really made the sandwich unique & delicious! AND they also brought out a complimentary dessert because my cousins food came out late. The dessert was soooo delicious! it was some sort of butterscotch custard w/ caramel popcorn! YUM! | 1 |
Very disappointing recent experience at around 1:30 pm on a Wednesday afternoon. Store was absolutely slammed with customers, yet there were only 3 people behind the counter!? Plus the phone was ringing every five seconds so no one could get anything done! Maybe someone or two called in sick that day, but boy did the customers pay for it. I waited at least 20 minutes for my turkey sandwich on wheat..which is about the easiest thing to make on the menu! \n\nOn the plus side, the employees are nice, and the rolls are better here than most other capriottis. I sure hope they get their stuff together or I won't be back. | 0 |
The staff was so attentive and addressed all of our requests. The service was excellent -nothing bad to say. The room was well-decorated and comfortable. There is the noise of the freeway but not so disturbing- just ask for higher floor. The pool area with fireplace was amazing. The restaurant was also nice. I absolutely recommend it. | 1 |
All the one star reviews on here are dead on! Stay away! Hakkasan is a death trap! Attempted to go see Tiesto this past weekend, (April 19th, 2014) and ended up not even sticking around for him because of how overcrowded, unorganized and just lousy this place really is. My girlfriend and I were looking so forward to an amazing night here and it was an instant buzz kill the minute we got in. Most everything about this place just sucked! If you do not have a gazillion dollars to spend on table/bottle service you are invisible and a nobody at this club! You will get knocked around like a ping pong ball between all the bouncers constantly shooing you along to keep you moving and the mad crush of people everywhere. Everything was an effort in this place! From having to wait in line for 20 minutes to get an overpriced watered down drink to actually trying to get to the dance floor! We never were able to make it to the dance floor because of how overcrowded it was! I wanted a water because of how hot it was with all the people and poor ventilation and the bar tender told me with a straight face that a water would be $9 for a small 11oz bottle of Fiji water as a regular cup of water was obviously not an option! Unfortunately it just all got to a point of being beyond a joke and we waved the white flag and gave up on this place before Tiesto ever even came out! | 0 |
I've always liked the vibe here. It is chill and laid back, the staff is super friendly, the food is good pub food and appropriate for the venue and of course, there is beer. \n\nPersonally, this is not a winter spot for me, I much more prefer sitting on their terrace chugging pints while watching people with plans and important things to do do rushing by with their screaming babies and little doggies. \n\nIf you do happen to brave a weekend visit, expect to be left standing. The place isn't very big and it can get quite packed as it is a popular joint. | 1 |
It's Saturday and we decided to go to Great Wall for dim sum. I had heard about this place from my cousin, but didn't have a chance to try it until today. We got a late start and by the time we got to Great Wall it was close to 1 pm. \n\nThe place is fairly spacious and we were seated right away. We noticed that they had a live fish tank with lobster, dungeness crab, assorted fish and even shrimp.\n\nThe bustling dim sum carts came to us pretty quickly. \n\nWe tried the following items:\n\nSteamed spareribs- small cubes of spareribs steamed in a black bean sauce. It was actually pretty tasty and not super fatty like some places. Would order this again.\n\nLong noodle (churng fun) with shrimp- the noodles were too thick for my liking even though the shrimp was nice and crunchy and it had a light soy sauce over it. Probably won't order this again unless the noodles are rolled out thinner.\n\nBaked pork bun- these buns looked great, all nicely golden brown with a light layer of sticky syrup to give it a sheen. The bun itself is soft and tasty, but I had to take literally 4 bites of the bun to get any \""char siu\"" or bbq pork filling. Slightly disappointing.\n\nCocktail bun- these buns seem to be quite popular, as the lady took one quick round trip around just half the room and they were gone. 3 buns come in one order. These are long shaped buns with some sesame on top. Inside are sweetened coconut filling and the bun is soft. A good combo and better than many other places I've tried.\n\nChinese tamale (jung) - A lotus leaf surrounds the savory goodness of rice, pork and green beans and chinese sausage (lap churng). They also have the option of peanuts instead of green beans if you want.\n\nFried taro puff- Mashed up taro is stuffed with minced pork, green onions with 5 spice powder and fried up with this puffy coating. I thought the taro puff here was a bit harder or denser than some places I've tried.\n \nSteamed shu mai- is perhaps one of the more famous Chinese dim sum items as it is steamed shrimp and pork dumpling. However, the shu mai at Great Wall is mediocre at best. The shu mai is a bit denser than I am normally accustomed to and the skin falls off easily as you pick it out from the mini steamer.\n\nPan fried turnip cake- this was surprisingly better than expected. It was pan fried to a nice golden brown on both sides and you could taste the dried shrimp, lap churng and bits of turnip. Definitely recommend trying this.\n\nCongee / Porrdige - we tried the 1000 year old egg with salted pork porridge and it was fine. Lots of chunks of egg and pork mixed in the porridge.\n\nThe bill came out to be a little over $27 for 3 people - not bad at all.\n\nI haven't tried their dinner items so this review is just for their dim sum. Over all, one of the better places that I've encountered while visiting the Phoenix area. Would come back for dim sum again and will give this place a try for dinner sometime soon. | 1 |
I'm not going to address the food I had today at lunch, but rather my experience here...\n\nThe folks from work had been raving about this place all week and said that we're going here today for lunch. There were roughly 12 of us, and they brought the food out to us as it was ready...usually 1-2 lunches at a time. My lunch was the last one to come out, and when the server set it in front of me, I didn't think it looked right. I told her that I didn't think that this was what I ordered. She looked around the table and realized that another person had my lunch. Even though he had started eating the lunch I ordered, she flat-out said for us to just switch plates and for me to pull off his plate what he had eaten off of mine. I thought she was joking at first...but, she wasn't. So, we actually swapped lunches, instead of them bringing me a new and correct lunch. The other guy only ate a piece or two of sushi off my plate with his chopsticks and didn't touch the other stuff, but I still find this gross and unacceptable to swap lunches. I really should have gotten up and walked out...needless to say, I will not be returning here. | 0 |
I usually like to visit a place twice before I review, but there were so many issues with my first visit, it's highly unlikely I'll return. \n\nTo start with, it's hotter than Hades in there! \nIt's a greenhouse. \nIt's summer. \nI get it. \nBut their structure is so small and plants are packed together so closely, that it's really difficult to roam around with a cart and peruse their selection. I felt hot and uncomfortable the entire time, bumping into plants, bumping into other shoppers...\n\nAnd let's talk about the selection real quick, which I was told by multiple sources is the best in Madison. I've since been to several greenhouse and I'm here to tell you, their selection is on par with Felly's in Fitchburg and a few other larger greenhouses around town. They might have a rare item here and there that you won't find elsewhere, but navigating the uncomfortable heat and nearly un-shoppable aisles isn't worth it in my opinion. \n\nAs far as the staff goes, I was pretty bummed that nobody wanted to lend a helping hand when I needed it. I went with a hanging planter and the idea that someone there would be able to point me towards things that would work well on my shaded balcony, but it was like pulling teeth trying to get any answers. And I asked a few folks for their best recommendations, both gave sort of general sort of apathetic recommendations. I certainly could have done some research on my own and gone there knowing which plants to pick up, but for the prices they charge, I think a little knowledge and expertise isn't out of the question. Tell me what I need, tell me how to care for things. That seems reasonable to me. \n\nI just didn't feel like they wanted to help me or cared to have my business and that's the worst feeling someone dropping close to $100 can have at a business. | 0 |
I went to the emergency room at JCL with severe lower back pain and had a great experience! Everyone was very attentive and really listened! They took me directly to a private room and I got into a gown and laid down. The doctor came in and took time to talk to me and examined me. Gave me three choices. I had a CT scan to take away my worries. I decided to get a muscle relaxant and give it a few days...good decision. I went in at 5:30 am Sat morning and only spent a few hours at the hospital. Super nice people and environment! | 1 |
The Happy Hour at Kona Grill is definitely hard to beat! The variety of food specials offered are amazing and there is something for everyone. Their variety of drink specials is very good. However, it would be nice if they offered a special on well drinks. I have also enjoyed dinner at Kona Grill but have often felt very rushed through my meal which is never pleasant. Their sushi and ahi tuna (cooked rare) is my all time favorite. The wait staff is professional and very attentive. | 1 |
We were staying at The Venetian and as part of our package received a coupon for this place. That made me a bit skpetical but we heard good things and thought we should check it out. WOW! What a great dining experience from the food to the service to the view overlooking the canal and gondolas below. We all had a different meal and everyone loved their dinner. The wine list is extensive and the service was top notch. The other interesting thing is that Zeffirino has probably one of the nicest, cleanest and most well-equipped bathrooms I have ever seen in a restaurant! Seems weird to note this but they actually received an award for it. I highly recommend Zeffirino for a lovely dining experience next time you are in Las Vegas! | 1 |
Absolutely the best Mexican food in Las Vegas! We always stop here when we are in town and it never disappoints! Juan has hot to be one of the waiters I've ever had. Upbeat and fun! Great food! All around great time! | 1 |
This place sucks the food sucks and so does the old ugly staff that serves it. I would rather starve. This place is called Kiss the Cook...but once you have eaten here you'll want to slap the cook!!!!! Save your money and avoid this place. It just isn't sanitary. | 0 |
Great location, friendly, reasonable. Thanks Scotty! | 1 |
As numerous people have pointed out, Walter's is indeed a great repair shop. Tim (Walter is his last name) and the rest of his staff are friendly, honest, professional, and reliable. I highly recommend this shop for repairs, maintenance, and check ups. \n\nHowever, they are victims of their own awesomeness. The waits here can be long--2 weeks or more--due to how busy they are and they only have one bay. If you do have a pressing safety concern though, Tim is always willing to take your car for a spin or do a quick diagnosis to let you know if something needs to be taken care of. | 1 |
The epitome of old school cool. The decor and feel of Mabel's is elegant and unique. They've got the whole speakeasy, lost-era look going for them, and it's going well! \n\nBe ready for a wait if you're not early. This place is a hot spot for Scottsdale's finest, but also its sleaziest. I came in on a Friday night around 10 and had to squeeze up to the bar. Luckily we found an empty table to hang out for a bit. Looking around the room, ladies were dressed in flapper outfits and guys in tuxedos. My gf wondered, \""are people dressed like this every night!?\"" You've also got the typical drunk Scottsdale crowd pouring in to see what the fuss is about. That can make for a pretty packed, loud and somewhat obnoxious environment for a such a classy place.\n\nThe dirty martini I ordered was darn good and I wish we had stayed longer to check out the back room with the false bookshelf entrance. This is the kind of bar to visit on an off-night when you can really kick back and enjoy the hip, yet charming experience. | 1 |
This place rocks because it is delicious food at a resonable price, and open 24 hours. On the strip it seems like its either cheapie fast food or upscale restaurants to choose from and sometimes you just want to grab some healthy, resonably priced food, but there aren't many options, so cheers to Earl of Sandwich for getting it right. The staff could be a little perkier but hey they weren't rude or anything so it isn't a big deal. One of the best BLTs I ever had, maybe because it was 4am and I had been drinking a bit or that is was actually super tasty, I think it was both :) | 1 |
The worst fish and chips I have ever had. Do yourself a favor...go to Fry's, buy a box of Gorton's fish fillets (the square ones) and take it home and deep fry it. Then mix some ketchup with some cocktail sauce (NO TARTAR SAUCE....THEY DON'T HAVE TARTAR SAUCE!!) and you have the Pete's experience, and you save about $15. I can't believe people think this is good. They make Long John Silvers seem gourmet. Dang. | 0 |
Awesome idea for a bar, and as expected they did things up right. We had a party of about 20 give or take, and in spite of how busy the place was the service was awesome. The waitresses made sure everyone who wanted drinks had them. The bus boys never let an empty glass sit around for longer than 5 minutes. The bartenders seemed to be able to satisfy any order and they were able to do it in short order. The waitress we had was extraordinary patient with one of our party who was plastered beyond all description. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a good spot in the Cosmo to have drinks after work or for any occasion. | 1 |
How I have never been to this bar until last week is beyond me. It's 0.1 miles away from home! So there is something good that came out of this Snowmageddon of 2010, at least for me ;)\n\nI was impressed by the huge beer selection they have, there are a few taps (5 or 6) and 3 huge fridges with bottled stuff at the end of the bar. Unlike some other places I've been to, here they print all the bottled beers in a menu; so it's easy to see what they have and made your pick. I've also tried an appetizer here, fried pirogies with sour cream, they were tasty but that's as far as I made it into the food menu (they do offer lunch, dunner and even brunch now)\n\nThey also have darts and shuffleboard, and a big TV to watch Lakers games on. And if that's not enough, Fridays are $4 margaritas and they are huge. This Saturday they had a 21A beer tasting, Rogue tasting earlier this year. All in all, pretty amazing for a bar so close to home and the prices are obviously lower than Southside (and the crowd a ton more bearable) | 1 |
One of the older hotels. NO WIFI in the rooms!! The patrons were on their laptops and phones in the lobby. In today's digital world, not having WIFI is a deal breaker in my opinion. The decor in the rooms, bathrooms were quite outdated. The breakfast buffet was ok. Tram to neighboring hotels such as Cosmopolitan. Part of the myVegas slot app game so you can get rooms for free. If you had to pay, I would try other establishments. | 0 |
Service was HORRIBLE!!! How the hell do you serve the entrees WITHOUT the rice? Or serve the adults drinks, and NOT the kids?? The food wasn't GREAT..but I'm from Cali, and know what GREAT Chinese food tastes like. I'm NEVER going back there. | 0 |
This IHOP is just like every other IHOP except for its proximity to ASU campus. I have eaten there so many times that I cannot even count them. All due to proximity and availability, never due to desire. \n\nThis is the only restaurant I have watched someone get sick in. It is packed after the bars get out at 2am. It is busy all night. Often with those who are under 21 but over 18 drinking coffee and acting as though it is their living room. \n\nGo here for sustenance only!! | 0 |
Just when you thought there were no more honest people left in the world, here's a success story. Mike was extremely responsive and took care of my project sooner than I anticipated. He is extremely pleasant and a hard working individual. His pricing is very reasonable and he is more than willing to come out for an estimate. I highly recommend him. | 1 |
The hype this place gets is a little excessive but it pretty much lives up to it. While I wasn't fully blown away by the two sandwiches I tried (I ordered The Original and my gf got the Full Montague), they were still great sandwiches. I blame it on the fact that I was eating them stone cold sober and not at 3am after a night of sweaty gyrating and fist pumping on the dance floor. \n\nPrice-wise this is as good as it gets on The Strip. It was about $6 for a 6 in. sandwich - very worth it. Also, open 24 hrs so come one come all at all hours of the day or night. \n\nMenu is fairly extensive with soups, salads, and desserts as well so you have a great many option to choose from in your drunken stupor. \n\nDefinitely make a stop here on your next trip :-) | 1 |
I live in town, & had a couple of friends come into town, they were staying at Treasure Island. We thought this restaurant had a nice menu.. But, we waited for atleast 5 minutes at our table without even having the server come over and take our drink order. Then we noticed 2 other tables that had been waiting longer than us. So we just got up & went to eat somewhere else! I will never return. | 0 |
So good, so good, so good. I am willing to pay $3 dollars for a cupcake. They are amazing and worth sharing. | 1 |
I've eaten here 4 times so far and the food is very good, particularly the curry dishes. However, the service leaves much to be desired and I do not like how they nickle and dime you for simple substitutions, hence the one star rating.\n\nOn service - Every time I've gone in there I felt like they couldn't get me and my girlfriend out of there fast enough. Honestly, we are not pushy or demanding patrons...we're not the sorts to flip out at the drop of a hat. That being said, when we got to the restaurant, they rushed us to a table, the waitress came to us SEVERAL times while we perused the menu, and when we did order, the apps and entre were not staged. Our entres came out immediately after we started eating our soup...that is probably my biggest pet peeve in any restaurant. Don't bring out the entre until we're finished with our apps...especially when I specifically ask for this after having the same experience on a previous visit. Mind you, it was not busy on these occassions...\n\nFinally, when we asked for the check the waitress came by and litterally tossed it on middle of the table as she walked by without a word...I found this beyond rude. Again, it was not busy in the restaurant.\n\nOn substitutions - I haven't asked for many in my 4 visits here but the only one I find particularly odd is rice. Most of the curry dishes come with steamed white rice, the lady and I prefer brown rice which is usually not an issue substituting...this place charges you $3 for the brown rice. $3 isn't going to kill anyone but in comparison to other Thai restaurants, the prices here are on the expensive side so I'm surprised there's a charge at all for this.\n\nNow, the food is really good but with the prices they charge its a shame they don't focus on service which is very lacking. | 0 |
I've heard a lot about this burger joint so I guess I expected more than what I got. The burger was real salty. Like to the point where I couldn't really taste anything else. Tried the fried pickles and damn.. Same problem. Now, you would expect the fries to be salty too, but nope. They were actually pretty good. Now I don't like giving places bad reviews, but this place is definitely not one of the best in the area. So many other good burger joints to try around the valley, this one isn't really worth it. | 0 |
You can bring dogs, but not tank tops. \n\nLet me explain. \n\nFive friends go to The Tavern On Mill. One male friend is in a tank top. Why not? It's Mill, it's warm outside and he has nice arms. Plus, it's Mill. A bouncer comes up to us and explains that his tank violates the dress code, so I literally take off my top and give it to him. There, he has sleeves. Note, and just to be clear, I had a cami on underneath so I was not exposed. The bouncer seemed highly amused and told us it was okay with him as long as my friend kept my shirt on. Yay, success... or so we thought. \n\nThe bouncer at the door, having seen this whole episode, would still not let us in. Note to bouncer: Your boss should fire your ass for being a Barney Fife douche. We were obviously a fun group and our clothes swapping took some guts/ingenuity. That should have been enough to make a small exception this time. I mean, you let dogs in! They shit on the floor for god's sake. They hump your leg and bite people when intimidated, all things tank top wearing human beings do not do. Also, this is Tempe (a college town) and your name is The Tavern. A word that derives from the Latin taberna and the Greek taverna, whose original meaning was a shed or workshop. Give me a fucking break! You're not a club, you're a casual bar. \n\nI happened to mention to one of the bouncers that I never expected this sort of thing in Tempe and he told me to go back to Scottsdale! What an asshole. I was nice about it all and that comment was really unnecessary. \n\nThe only other time I've been to The Tavern On Mill was during a pub crawl and I only stayed long enough for one drink. Too bad I will never be back because the bouncers are such jerks and I refuse to hang out at places that lack personality. I mean, who would have guessed a place that hosted a graffiti pub crawl where people wrote things on each others shirts like \""help me find my clitoris\"" would have such a strict dress code? \n\nMinus one star for being assholes. Two stars out of pity because I love dogs and because if the owner lets dogs in I am going to assume he is not as much of a jerk as his bouncers. | 0 |
As already mentioned by other yelpers:\n\nThe best miso ramen in Phx.\n\nVery tasty soba noodles.\n\nKatsu chicken entree is also very good.\n\nNot pricey at all for what you get, which is a significant amount of very tasty food. \n\nDecor: \nBooth seats. Kind of out of date. Just like any other mom and pop restaurant that has been open since the 80s. Picture of a Japanese Kimono on the wall. Not \""cool\"" in a \""I wear D&G sun glasses and think RA has amazing sushi\"" kind of way, but cool in a \""this place has great food, who the hell cares what it looks like\"" kind of way.\n\nService: \nDon't expect to be seated at a table and your drink order taken by a waiter. We were handed two menus when we walked into the restaurant. We took the menus and made our own way to a table to figure out what we wanted. Once we had our mind set on what we wanted, I walked over to the cashier counter and placed our order with the owner. Only time we interacted with the owner again was when our food and drinks were brought to our table, and when we got up and payed at the cashier counter. So, yeah, you will not be waited on hand and foot. But I think that aspect of the owner's personality somehow adds to the Toh Zan experience. It's like, \""You want what? To be served? LOL. First time?\"" | 1 |
I really wanted to leave a good review for this place, but that is not what is about to happen. Lesson learned here: Check the Yelp reviews before ordering an sitting in the restaurant. \n\nNew Years day, one day a year that you probably, like most Americans, do not want to cook. For dinner my girlfriend suggested Chinese food, a simple request that ended with me still hungry. Since they are one of the closest places to me, I placed an order on-line, this turned out to be mistake #2, with mistake #1 being that I didn't check Yelp before deciding on this place. \n\nThe on-line order processing was great since I didn't want to be bothered with a phone call. However, after arriving at Meiwei, they said that the only order they had was scheduled for a pickup time 45 minutes after what I was told. So they apologized and put in my order. Perhaps at this point they should have asked if that was in fact my order they were putting in.\n\nThe order was presented to me in normal time. While I was waiting I started looking at the reviews... Rutt Roh! I ordered the sesame chicken as mentioned by someone else, and when any restaurant is labeled as inconsistent, you really have to wonder what you are in for. Mistake #3, not checking the order.\n\nWhen I got home I thought the order had a few extra items, which I figured they might have been using as a way to make up for the mistake of not putting in my order. Nope! Dead wrong. This wasn't my order! \n\nNow this is where it gets interesting... Would you bring back an order that has more items than you ordered that actually looks good? Mistake #4, I brought it back.\n\nWhen I did get the correct order I was wishing I kept the previous orders. The Sesame chicken that I was now really ready to eat, because I ordered it over an hour before was, how should we say, not good. Every place I have ever ordered it uses chunks of chicken, this place uses slivers, and as mentioned by argen t., there is hardly any breading and the sauce is real watery. By slivers I mean that it was about the thickness of lettuce, and maybe 1 inch wide by 2 - 4 inches long.\n\nI also ordered 2 appetizers, the spare ribs, which aren't ribs, they are more like spare parts an inch in length, and an order of spring rolls. Out of the 2 spring rolls, I could only down part of one. \n\nI do have to mention that the vegetable fried rice that I got for my girlfriend was pretty good.\n\nAs I said in the beginning, I really wanted to write a good review because the employee I was working with went out of her way to make everything right, including throwing in an order of crab-puffs for my trouble. \n\nFor the service I would give Meiwei 4 stars, however let's be honest it's the food that makes or breaks a restaurant which pulls this down to a 2 because I don't have the heart to give them a 1. | 0 |
Purchased a groupon coupon and was treated as a bother rather than being helpful! \nI would not recommend this place!!!!! | 0 |
The Trans-Siberian Orchestra rolled into Glendale for their winter tour 2011 and I haven't seen that much hair flipping since the mid 1980's. Most of us are familiar with their rock renditions of Christmas songs, but I didn't know anything about the band. For one, they actually sing! There's singing, dancing, music, lights, lasers, pyrotechnics, moving stage equipment, etc. My husband and I had to laugh a little about the 80's factor though. Everyone seems to have long hair both men and women, which they repeatedly whip back and forth while shredding on a white inverted V guitar, or a purple sparkled violin. There were also a lot of rock fists in the air and side to side choreographed swaying \""for emphasis\"". Kind of like if Poison or Skid Row did a Christmas show....but we loved it. The music is amazing and moving, and the show was \""narrated\"" by a gentleman who sort of told a story of Christmas in between the musical performances. The lasers and lights and pyrotechnics were, of course, the highlights and I found myself with oooohhs and aaaahhs. Purely awesome. | 1 |
I went here a few days ago and I have to say it was pretty good. The angel hair with shrimp was good. The only complaint is that there wasn't enough of it. They used really shrimp, not the frozen stuff you get at most restaurants. The clam chowder was also very good. The ciopinno was good also. The amount and variety of seafood was good and the sauce it was cooked in was really good. I have had some good, and not so good ciopinno. I have to say this was pretty good. \n\nMy waiter was really nice and the atmosphere was great. The only reason I am giving them a four star is because the portion for the angel hair and shrimp was small for the price. They could have also give a couple more pieces of garlic bread with the ciopinno. | 1 |
To be honest, I'm a fair person who gives legitimate reviews. I find it disrespectful when a person says they can't allow anyone to enter who serves a drink within the hotel. In my opinion, I think it's all lame. If a hotel allows Fat Tuesday to be served while T&T says no to Fat Tuesday at their restaurant then that's a little BS. This is one of the main reasons why I don't book my stay at Luxor.\n\n\""Have a drink! But you can bring it anywhere else.\""\n\nAlso, I hate how the \""manly\"" employee came up and said rudely I could t not bring a drink from the same hotel in a restaurant. He tried my time and other's time at the LUXOR and will not be coming back here spend a dime.\n\nI wish this gets reviewed by LUXOR and lays down a simple law to allow a simple rule to allow anyone to not give a damn like other restaurants.\n\nT&T sucks because of this.\n\nIt's VEGAS! | 0 |
Came on a Sunday which was hip hop. Crappy dj, rude crowd, tiny dance floor. Girls get free drinks but make sure you don't share with your guy friends because they will get kicked out. | 0 |
Great beer selection but extremely overpriced. Weird atmosphere, some nights it is hopping, other nights the bartender kind of pushes you out because it's so slow. I will say that the smoke free environment is nice, but I don't know if that can make up for the steep prices. | 0 |
Good food, but witnessed the grill chef use tongs to put a raw piece of chicken on the grill and use the same ones to pull a cooked one and put it on a sandwich. MAJOR NO NO IN THE FOOD INDUSTRY! Some times its not good for a restaurant to have an open kitchen. I've have managed restaurants in my life and is why I noticed this. I informed the manager and he handled the situation properly. Unfortunately this is something I had to report to the public, so this can be looked at by corporate and handled ,so hopefully someone doesn't get sick. P.s. there marzen beer is very good. Eat at your own risk. | 0 |
One of the most disappointing experiences I have had with a hotel and casino buffet.\nThe receptionists at check-in were rude. Most of bartenders rude, and no luggage check-in assistance unless valet parking included; packed our luggage through the casino as carts were for Valet only. Room was quite inferior although advertised with refridgerator, coffee pot, tub/shower..was not. Check-out the same bad experience; was greeted with a \""grunt\"" and no eye contact.\nThe Buffet was awful, with price outrageous. Food cold, dry and no one attending the area. \nChoose another if you go to Vegas....hope they are not all like this. | 0 |
We've been here several times and found that they serve homey food in a very relaxed atmosphere. The prices are pretty good, but this is a place I tired of because it is very homey and I can cook like this so why go out.\nWent for the sunday brunch that was advertised in an e-mail and was disappointed.It wasn't a brunch, only a breakfast with nothing spiecial. The eggs I asked for over medium were cooked over easy which means runny whites, so I couldn't eat them. The sides were mostly cold. The potatoes were good tasting but cold. The bacon was either raw or burnt and again cold. I didn't try the sausage or the french toast because I was afraid it was cold. The other thing that bothers me is that every buffet that I've been to has you use a clean plate every time you go get food and this place gives you one plate to use over and over. This means that if you use ketchup on your eggs and potatoes then you get ketchup on your sweet roll and fruit, yuck!\nThere are better places to go for the money. | 0 |
Although I give the group of friends I was with Saturday night 5 enthusiastic stars, I have to say this was a very disappointing bar experience. Upon walking in, I immediately felt like the space looked exactly like every other brand new Irish pub - you know the ones pretending to look weathered and old ... and they all end up freakishly looking the same? This place is an exact replica of D'Arcy McGee's at Tempe Marketplace. Which isn't too bad, if you like the pre-packaged, generic Irish pub feel. \n\nI ordered my usual favorite bevvy that I order at every fine Irish establishment - a Snakebite (basic term for a mixture of beer and hard cider) and I said \""with Guinness.\"" The bartender looks at me and snaps \""that's called a black velvet - NOT a Snakebite\"" ... which, I did look up later, and in fact a black velvet was created in London, England, and a traditional Irish Snakebite is made with Guinness - I know this argument is neither here nor there but he was really quite rude about it!\n\nAnyway, the band that was playing reminded me of a cross between Irish music and Kenny Loggins... so we decided to go to our first love.. Rula Bula. I did confess to the bartender at Rula Bula that I did in fact cheat on them \""a little bit\"" ... but they said that after a little bit of counseling our relationship should be back to normal in no time. It was like I played \""just the tip\"" (look up Old School if you don't know what I am talking about) and I definitely did not like how it feels. | 0 |
I was looking forward to a tuna melt at the Cafe in Harrah's the night I arrived, unfortunately, the 24 hour cafe was closed on Thursdays for several hours in the evenings.\n\nSo, right next door was Ming's Table! Perhaps the cafe being closed in the evening hours is a ploy to drive more business to the casino's other restaurants? Anyway, I was hungry and didn't want to pay for room service, so in I went.\n\nI was seated immediately. Seating is ample and there is a nice little seating area fenced in out front where you can watch the human element as they trek by. If you like to people watch, ask for a seat there. Personally, I had my kindle in hand and just wanted a quiet table tucked away in the back where I could eat and read in peace.\n\nSadly, the best part of the meal was the hot tea. It was a green tea, light and fragrant and they bring out the entire pot so you can refill your mug at your own convenience. \n\nI ordered a sushi roll, the Dragon roll. It came out almost immediately which concerned me somewhat as there is tempura shrimp in it which should normally require cooking before assembly if the roll was made fresh! Well, it wasn't fresh, it was pre-cooked and perhaps just assembled to order. At least the spicy tuna molded on top of the roll was tasty.\n\nI got the Pepper Steak for dinner. Unfortunately, while the portion was huge (served on a family serving style platter), it was terribly bland. The sauce had no heat or spiciness whatsoever and was overpowered by the amount of fragrant ginger used in it. The meat wasn't carmelized at all, it looked like it had been boiled and dropped into the weak sauce. The peppers were poorly cut... big ole chunks, including from the bottom of the bell pepper... who wants to eat that?? I'm experienced with a pair of chopsticks, but I had to work overtime to get these things from plate to mouth without firing them off in all directions. In the end, I only ate about a quarter of the dish, and while I had a fridge in my suite, I didn't bother asking for the rest to go.\n\nOverall, it was an experience, but once was enough for me. | 0 |
The grounds are clean however, the office staff and management are unprofessional and big liers. They tell you one thing and then when it's time to perform they act lost and deny ever saying it. They are arrogant money hungry bitches. Excuse my french but they are trifiling. I should have took the red flag when I was having problems before I even moved in. I can't wait until my lease is up the beginning of the year. The maintenance have been the only ones to keep their words and do what they need to do in a professional manner so far. | 0 |
I have to say this is one of my favorite restaurants in Vegas. The food and the atmosphere is great. I recommend having the \""Frankie Special\"", I have to get it every time I go. Second favorite would be \""The Sundevil Roll\"". Delicious! | 1 |
After my poor, 4m old Alaskan Klee Kai got attacked by a mean and aggressive chihuahua back in 2009, she was not the same, sweet and well-tempered doggie. She would display aggression toward unfamiliar dogs that came near her and myself and would guard my fiance and me. I was in desperate need for help and asked some fellow dog owners on places to have her trained.\n\nWe scheduled a consultation with one of their trainers at the facility and he said he was concerned that my dog was displaying a bit of dog jealously when she saw me giving attention to another dog. He also explained that their e-collar was NOT a shock collar but was a training device to grab the dog's attention and wouldn't place the collar past 3 out of 10. I was initially impressed by their techniques as it appeared to work on my dog. However, I call BULLSH*T because at one point during one of the trainings the trainer had REPEATEDLY put the collar up to 8 to get my dog's attention.\n\nEven though I had experienced, first hand, how the e collar felt, I thought a 3 out of 10, which the trainer said had said SMS would never go above, would be an acceptable threshold for my dog. 8 out of 10 on that collar is just straight up cruel and uncomfortable. FEEL an 8 out of 10 on YOUR OWN NECK/HAND etc.; it's a crappy feeling. I felt that I didn't get much out of the 3 trainings that cost close to some ridiculous price over 500 bucks....we were not taught anything outside of the \""place\"" command and I didn't feel that we learned how to use the e-collar as effectively to grab her attention. As a result, my dog seemed to experience more anxiety and it didn't fix her aggressive behavior but probably exacerbated it.\n\nTrust me, I followed everything the trainers told us to do but unfortunately this left my dog with an unimpressive improvement in her behavior and my fiance and I broke. I don't see what I did wrong except to decide to go with SMS rather than doing my research on dog trainers in the Valley. While I'm sure this technique would work for other dogs with specific temperaments, this technique was a total fail on my dog. So, before you resort to SMS, please do some research! | 0 |
Brandy is an awesome manager and super stylist and Cheryl rocks it too! Excellent customer service. | 1 |
This place is legit and Gus is great. A tad eccentric--but great. I went there because I had a Living Social coupon for a custom suit. I upgraded and spent extra but whoa. Totally worth it because I LOVE the finished product! I had no idea there were so many decisions, but I liked that. \n\nMy only (very minor) complaint is it took a little too long for my liking to actually get the suit after picking everything out and getting the measurements. Plan ahead and get there at least a few weeks early if the suit is for a special occasion. | 1 |
This is my second Cirque show, Mystere being first. \n\nIt is a water based show, very fitting to be in the Bellagio! But the stage moves around so at some points it is a dry stage. \n\nShortly after the show starts, be sure to look up! I would have missed it if my friend didn't tap me to let me know (haha oops). If there was a story to the show, I couldn't really tell what it was. \n\nThe costumes, makeup, and performances were amazing to say the least. The section I was sitting in, it was hard to see all the little details, but from what I could tell they were very interesting and some were even kind of like an illusion at some point. It is definitely like a circus without any animals. The acrobatics were pretty cool and it went well with their costumes. \n\nThe music is live, if you look to the boxes by the stage you'll sometimes see the singers and musicians performing! (only when they light the boxes up, sometimes it's dark)\n\nI believe this show is over hyped which was why I took one star away, I saw Mystere first and loved it, comparing the two, I would rather see Mystere again. | 1 |
Somethings are just wrong. Imagine a college kids fridge with left over Chinese and some tortillas. I love Chinese, I love Mexican. Cheese and General Tso chicken. Ick. | 0 |
Cool night club on Freemont Street in Downtown Vegas. It's part of the Golden Nugget and the outdoor balcony overlooks Freemont Street. \n\nFrom Thursday-Sunday, the club is open till' late night, spinning a cool mix of the latest Pop, Hip-Hop, as well some really good Club Music. On top of that, they get into sets of the old-school Rap and Hip-Hop too.. I would reccomend this club for the 30+ crowd. \n\nThe bartenders are nice and they make the drinks strong.\n\nThe view outside is great. You can see all the way down Freemont and enjoy the Freemont Street Experience (the show) while enjoying the club. | 1 |
Great place to stay to avoid a hole in your wallet. Casino Host is the best way to get things done faster. Look for Ken G. for golfing info and daily rates. He found me some great places to golf in Vegas. \nEasy access to Wynn (XS, Surrender, and Tryst) and Palazzo and Venetian (Lavo and Tao) for all you clubbing people. Walking distance so you don't have to fork out money for a cab after partying. Place has a tram to Mirage and walking distance to Forum Shops at Caesars.\nPool here is a bit smaller compared to the other hotels.\nCasino floor a good size where if you had to look for someone, it wouldn't be too hard.\nCheckin and checkout are easy and front desk is very nice and helpful.\nRooms were very nice and modern looking. \nBuffet is a NO. Very pricey and not very appetizing.\nParking is fairly easy, one structure to the back with a walking ramp to the casino.\nMystere show is here at this casino, easy access where you don't have to walk around looking for it. (Right next to starbucks from the parking lot). | 1 |
I was driving from Atlanta to Virginia when I decided to stop in Charlotte and have a nice dinner. So I went to woodlands and ordered a dosa. After about five minutes a waiter came over and asked me if I had ordered. I said yes and pointed to the other staff member who had talked to me, but then he wanted to know wether he had written it down. Strange. I said I did not know. Then the original waiter came over and apologized for forgetting about my order. After waiting for another 15 to 20 minutes for my food, I got up to use the rest room. I came back to see they had given away my seat to someone else! So I was left waiting for a table. As luck would have it, my dosa arrived while I was waiting. The waiter had the gall to ask me to sit at a storage shelf and eat the food! It did not even have any legroom or a chair, and was in a dark dirty corner. I refused. So they cleaned up a table and let me have my food, not reheated may I add. Overall the experience left me disappointed. The good was ok, but not delicious. Perhaps someone with restaurant management experience could enlighten me. Is it really that hard for three people and a manager to serve 17 tables? | 0 |
I went here with 18 guys to watch the Sharks game - unfortunately it started about 90 minutes after the Lakers game. So we were shunted into a shitty table with terrible sightlines. And the second the Sharks game ended, they turned up all the lights and tried to get us the fuck out of there. We dropped almost $2000 here and we could barely get them to bring us menus even though, after a point, we were the only customers. I like the concept, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. | 0 |
Here's a Jimmy Joke About 'Yo Momma That You Might Not Like\nBy The Rue \n\nNow, here's a little story I'd like to tell,\nAbout an awesome slice of pie that I like so well,\nIt started long ago back in history,\nWith 2 co-workers and me, The Rue D.\nI had a little hunger pang for titties and beer,\nI don't do strip clubs so let's go here,\nI didn't ride in a van, down with the man,\nLunch a Jimmy and Joe's is the plan.\nOne big nerd who is hungry,\nI'd go by myself without nobody,\nStopped at the store to get food for my cat,\nThen it's time to grab a slice I don't care if I'm fat.\nLooking for Dobson, a friend asked why,\nI said \""what's wrong with you man, are you high?\"" \n\nI told the guy who was driving I was dying of thirst,\nWhen we get to Jimmy and Joe's I'm ordering first,\nLunch special #1 I didn't leave a tip,\nThe cashier winked and handed me my debit card slip.\nI said \""do you like bums?\""\nShe said \""sure do hun\"".\nAsked her out for coke and rum,\nShe said that sounds fun,\nAsked me if I knew a guy named Fred,\nI blinked, she winked and this is what she said,\n\n\""Now my name is (insert name here) and this is my will,\nI think you should pick me up at 7 so we can go chill,\nWe can go to the zoo and look at the deer,\nIf we run into Fred you better stear clear.\"" \nWalked away from the counter with my reciept and her pen,\nI'll tell you when my review is done, no need to say when.\n\nThis song is much longer than I thought it to be,\nIf you want to know what I ate, read my last review please. \n\nMMMMMMMMMMM DROPPPPP!!! | 1 |

I've been going to Ralph's for 20 years. They always do an amazing job with my tires!!! I recently had to put 4 new tires on my car and I swear, it's like driving a brand new car. My wheel alinement is a little off so they are taking care of that no problem. Honest and family owned. definitely talk to Ben or Drew!! | 1 |
A hotel trying too hard to be interesting in a town that tries to hard too be interesting. This hotel would fit in in Las Vegas (their theme), but as a 5 story low-rise place in the middle of the bland, squat, little dump of a town that is Scottsdale, it feels amusing. \n\nThe hotel is full of unique, but completely useless and non-functional crap in a transparent attempt to seem trendy. You walk through the lobby and techno music is blaring, the lights are dimmed and the hostesses at the crappy restaurants are dressed like they're getting ready to walk down a runway. By the time you get to your room, you sort of feel dirty. Certain rooms are marked \""talent\"", which I don't even want to know is all about.\n\nThe rooms, which are setup like neat studio apartments, would be really cool in a place like manhattan if they weren't looking out onto parking garages and air conditioning units. The beds in the king rooms sit in the middle of the room and are backed up to a computer table, not a wall. The bathrooms exists as two separate frosted glass pods, one for the toilet and one for the shower. It's a neat, but non-functional arrangement if you're sharing the room with someone The exterior walls are made of glass to give you that wonderful view of the parking garage wall, gravel on the roof, or if you're lucky enough, an abandoned structure left over from the real estate boom in \""Old Town Scottsdale\""\n\nTo the east of you is a two block by two block area full of enough douchebags to make the cast of Jersey Shore blush. Little did I know that these weren't restaurants, but instead bars full of roided out, gelled hair punks and women who will die of skin cancer by the time they're 35, trading jello shots and redbulls as they fistpump their tuesday nights away.\n\nTo the south west is \""Old Town\"", which consists of 3-4 dozen mostly mediocre restaurants in a repurposed strip mall from the 1950s which aims to feel like a western movie set. \n\nBack to the hotel itself... They have such delusions of grandeur that they charge 30 bucks a day to valet park in a state that was founded on the principals of massive parking lots and cheap energy rates. The hotel is so desperate for that \""chic\"" status that they'll rent or use local luxury car dealerships to stock the front parking circle to make it appear as though people want to be here. I should mention that the team running the valet parking, luggage handling and doormen are extremely courteous.\n\nIf you choose to be a loser and opt for the deal-of-the-century $10 a day self parking in the land of free real estate, indian reservations and deserts, you'll be rewarded with outdoor (but shaded) parking that consists of about 10 spaces for the entire hotel rented out from an office park across the street. Better get there early folks!\n\nSo by the time you get to your room, you should be disgusted enough to pass out out of frustration, after maybe a snack. Since this hotel is too cool for refrigerators, you're treated to a wooden tray, stacked to the brim with snackfood. This is a magical tray, because it transforms 75 cent packages of almonds into $10 classy treats, and 50 cent packages of cookies into 7 dollar self-esteem reassurers. If you choose to partake in their miniature bottle of wine, prepare to pay $75!!! If you wanted to buy a bottle of water or something at their convenience store, too bad, it only sells underwear, flimsy dresses and perfume (so fancy!).\n\nSo fine, just screw it, time to get some sleep, right? Well, unfortunately, that glass exterior wall designer did not have enough foresight to ensure that the curtains closed all the way!\n\nThe pluses? The hotel doesn't have motion sensors on the AC, which means you can crank it to survive the disgusting summer heat. Other than that? none... not a damn thing. \n\nAs a starwood member who has stayed at other W hotels, I will do my best to avoid this place on subsequent visits. \n\n\nFinal summary? If you're lower class valley trash looking for a weekend to make you feel fancy, this might just be your place. | 0 |
Stayed in a Pyramid deluxe king room on lower floor... It was BASIC, no frills, no wireless internet service (although we were told that connection could be made in the tower rooms & center of pyramid). The shower tiles were dated & carpets seemed a bit worn. There seemed to have been a flood in the bathroom as the door was warped and \""crunched\"" at its base. On the bright side, the air freshener dissipated the outside cigarette smoke & any other odors. The bed was comfortable and we awoke feeling refreshed to a new day/night of gambling or gourmet dining.\n\nThis was our first time staying at the Luxor, although we've been to LV many times & stayed on the Strip. Luxor seemed less \""crazy\"" than the other larger resorts, even with its Egyptian theme. Most of the crowd seemed like they prefer the new City Center and further north. We liked its location because it was central to Mandalay Bay & New York New York. | 1 |
I got the chance to take a look round Mary King's Close for the first time as part of a special evening tour event, where we went round parts of the close with a TV psychic, as well as listening to the imperceptible, and possibly ghostly sounds of the close, through really advanced electronic voice phenomenon recording equipment. I don't really have a passionate opinion on the world of spirits and ghosts and whether they exist, but I do find all the evidence on it pretty fascinating, plus I do love a good ghost story, which has to be told in pitch darkness of course.\n\nThe close, formerly a bustling street back in the day, is now a historical attraction, where guides who are costumed for the part, tell visitors about Scotland's past. Standing in the underground depths of the close, with barely any light, is undoubtedly quite an eerie, \""I can feel someone walking over my grave\"" shivery experience, and lots of people have reported seeing fleeting, ghost like shadows here, or the feeling of someone tapping them, plus other tales of supernatural happenings. Whether dedicated ghost hunter or skeptical disbeliever, it's worth coming along here to experience the atmosphere of the close, and to imagine Edinburgh in another time. | 1 |
I stay in 3 to 4 hotel rooms a week so I am not too picky when it comes to beds but these were terrible. If I'm going to pay $160/night I at least want a decent bed. And this may sound weird but the toilet seats were too small (and I'm a small guy). The rooms were clean but I would not stay here again. | 0 |
Here's my scaling system on how this place received 2 stars from me: \nI came here with 3 of my co-workers for lunch, thankfully we were seated right away because this place was packed (+5 star). There was only one server, so we waited and waited and waited about 10 minutes before he finally came over to take our order, after he took the order of two other tables that came in after us (-1 star). I initially wanted to order ban cuon dac biet #25, but the server told me \""No, we're too busy, I'm not making that\"" REALLY??!!??! Isn't this a restaurant? Aren't you in business hoping to have a full house every day? The item is on the !*&$*# menu! Tell me you're out of it or something, not \""we're too busy...\"" (-2 star, YES I deducted 2 stars for this). I settled with #19 - Bun Cha Gio Thit Nuong. Two of my co-workers ordered basically the same dish I had, but added shrimp to theirs and one ordered the #1-pho. They all enjoyed their food (+1 star). I've had better, the grilled pork was thinly sliced and a bit overcooked, so it was kind of tough to chew (-1 star). | 0 |
Stopped in for a drink and quick bite to eat. Been here once before briefly. Like the atmosphere and sat and that bar. I was greeted right away. The waitress let me know it was happy hour...on sat? Awesome!\n\nOrdered the Moscow mule as it was my first one ever...so good!!! I had two lol also had the truffled deviled eggs and crispy Brussels sprouts which were delish! \n\nLoved the classic rock music too :) | 1 |
Great service, drinks were top notch! Space can be a little tight at times but a little bumping elbows never hurt anyone in a bar.\n\nMusic selection is spot on and the food rocks. Had myself some grilled cheese sliders w/ bacon and tomato. \n\nGreat place to spend your layover.right next to A5. | 1 |
If I lived in Bakersfield or Yuma or even Tucson or Sedona.. I'm sure I'd be a fan of DSW. However, there are so many high end department stores, boutiques and high end chains in the Scottsdale area that I never find a better deal at DSW that I can at any of these places' sales. ie: They carry Charles David shoes, and usually about 5 or 6 different styles, usually at about 50% off. Go right down the street to Kierland or Fashion Square and you'll find a whole Charles David store with half the store 50% on any given day. And that's about their highest end line, at least within my taste range. Nothing wrong with the place, I just find better deals and definitely better selection easily elsewhere. | 0 |
If it was possible to rate this place a -1, I would. My boyfriend and I always liked coming here until our last visit. We noticed over time the food hasn't been as good, and the service is probably the worst I've ever had. But this visit was the last straw. A friend and I got to the restaurant to grab a table for our party of 7. The wait wasn't long at all. We were seated immediately, but it took our server 18 minutes before I could flag him down just for a drink order. I even timed it because the service there the last few times hasn't been its best. Mind you it wasn't busy compared to its usual hectic environment. We got our drinks and our friends arrived, we were finally ready to order and no one came back to our table for another 20 mins. We had to stop another server and ask him to take our order because apparently our server decided to clock out and was hanging out in the back of the restaurant in his wife beater watching everyone eat like a damn creep. Everyone ordered either an app or just an entree. Not too much food like we usually do. I ordered the chicken pad thai. Everyone got their food except for me. After everyone else got their food, no one else stopped by our table. I got up to tell someone to take what I ordered off the bill because I no longer wanted it. He said ok and walked to the back. A few mins later he came out with my order in a to go box. I told him AGAIN that I no longer wanted it because it took too long. We had to ask 3 different people for our check and that took over 10 mins to get. I honestly don't understand how management can allow such horrible service to their customers. We're no longer coming to this restaurant for any reason what so ever. | 0 |
BOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!\n\nWhere did it go?! The restaurant is empty and there is an eviction notice on the door! Very bad news! I called the number, no dice. WTH is going on here? If anyone knows the new location please tell me! STAT.\n\nNo fair.....no fair (yes, Gage in pet cemetary) | 0 |
Nothing outstanding. We ordered grilled cheese, mini brats, steak, and a chicken sandwich. \n\nSandwich was cold and a little too charred. \n\nMini brats were good. \n\nSteak was burnt \n\nGrilled cheese was ok. \n\nServer was nothing more than just a server, which is fine. I know she was busy. \n\nMaybe will give it another shot, as we will be living across the street soon. | 0 |
I met a friend for lunch,the owner cook was 45 minutes late to open,I wish we had not waited we both ordered Mussels $18.00 a serving, I have to say they were the worst I have ever eaten 1/3 did not open a few did not have any meat.\nThe waitress asked how it was and we told her,absolutely nothing back from the cook/owner.\nThe place has no lunch business and I do understand why. | 0 |
Not to be deterred by the new second floor location, finally reopened after the iconic street level restaurant was forced to close due to new student housing construction, I happily entered a world of culinary bliss, If there can be a more exquisite meal had anywhere up and down State Street, please let me know; otherwise, treat yourself right and set your taste buds free. Positively perfect cuisine in each and every way! | 1 |
My family met friends here for my birthday brunch. Didn't have a great time. Problems started when I ordered blueberry pancakes. The server came back and said they didn't have blueberries (really, with a Harris Teeter practically next door? Send someone to get some!) I told him it was my birthday and that was a big disappointment! He didn't offer any other suggestions so I asked if they could make pecan pancakes. They agreed to that and they came out okay. You'd think he might get the hint it was my birthday and perhaps comp something or send out a dessert or something? No. Not even a \""happy birthday!\"" from the server!\n\nOne kid in our party ordered scrambled eggs but they came with cheese -- not mentioned on the menu -- and the kid can't have cheese, so he had to re-order his brunch. \n\nService was blah, food was pretty blah, and the 20% added because we were a party of eight (really we were two parties, one of three and one of five) was icing on the cake, so to speak. \n\nIn this competitive environment, I'm surprised this place has been around as long as it has. Prices were relatively high, as well, and there aren't many options such as turkey sausage or waffles, both of which I was hoping for. Overall, a big \""so-so\"" experience. | 0 |
I dropped my daughter off at Get Nailed for full tips and a pedi. Her wedding was in 4 days and she was suffering with leg pain. I went shopping and when I returned the manicurist was putting a diamond design on the nails. THE MANICURIST (An African Americanl lady) WAS LICKING THE ORANGE STICK ON HER TONGuE TO WET THE STICK TO PICK UP THE STONES AND PUT IT ON THE BRIDES HANDS!!!!!!! MY DAUGHTER WAS IN SO MUCH LEG PAIN SHE DIDN'T NOTICE UNTIL SHE SAW MY EYES ROLLING IN MY HEAD. I was repulsed! to say the least. We left saying she would come back for the pedi. The store looked dirty and dingy. Disgusting. We immediately went to our hotel spa and they removed the stones and sanitized her hands. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. This store should be cited by the board of health and closed down!!!! One star is too generous!!! | 0 |
The food was great, i would highly recommend the carnitas burrito. I plan on going back and trying the taco salad. | 1 |
I'm being nice with the 2 stars. This place is seriously a bucket of crap. Those who think this place is actually good need to have their brains examined. There are SO MANY other hotels on the strip, I don't understand why anyone would want to stay here. The only reason I stayed at Bally's was because my mother had a convention located in the hotel. We only stayed two nights until the convention was over and transferred to the New York New York (which is much better and happened to be cheaper) for the rest of our stay in Vegas.\n\nTo top it off, the staff was extremely rude. We were supposed to be placed in the newly renovated North tower, but all of the rooms were taken by the time we arrived. My mother was specifically told she'd be placed in the North tower because the convention was being held in that area. The lady at the front desk basically gave us a \""too bad, so sad\"" look and rolled her eyes. We were placed in the South tower, which is awful. If for some misfortune you end up staying at Bally's, for the love of God, do not stay in the South Tower. | 0 |
That is a great cat they have working, but they only have 3 brands of cat food, all of them expensive. Funny enough though not as expensive as what I was looking for. They followed me around like I was going to stuff my pockets and that just ruined the whole mom and pop thing. | 0 |
The menu looks wonderful, but I think the actual food falls short. Prices are pretty high for what you get, as well. We had a groupon and tried it out, but don't think we'll ever be back. The place is nice inside, somewhat sterile, the servers were friendly, but a bit confused and seemed to need a bit more training. I don't think they'll attract much of a sportsbar crowd with their healthy options menu - but maybe things will turn around and they'll work out their kinks. | 0 |
I thought the prices were very high, considering how the food tasted. The restaurant itself reminded me of Applebees because of the decor - It was an \""okay\"" experience, but I would probably not go back. | 0 |
I've eaten at many thai restaurants in Madison and this is by far my favorite. It is very reasonably priced, well spiced, and made fresh. Even most of their sauces are made from scratch. The downside is that service is a bit slow and it is definitely more of a take out sort of place. Definitely not the sort of place you'd want to take a first date to. | 1 |
It took me until this year (my fourth year living in Edinburgh) to get around to going to Greens Deli. I mean, it's not because I never wanted to, but because I'd only ever heard rumour of its existence, and people never tended to elaborate on what they served there. They just tended to see you gotta get there early, or there won't be any ingredients left. So, one day, I did. \n\nGreens Deli is the typical kind of student foody place to go. It's right next to the George Square library and the other abominable buildings that the university has built around George Square, and where it educates its students. This means that around 1, the place is packed with really hungry kids. \n\nThe fillings are really delicious, and the price is OK for how good it is. I don't know of any other sandwich place that has roasted courgettes AND aubergines AND peppers as fillings. And the honey mustard sauce is delicious. One warning, though. If you go here and decide to take your panini or wrap out to the park to eat (or wherever), be careful or you definitely will get covered in sauce. | 1 |
what a cute little place. service was good, the food was ok. we enjoyed our veggie basket & the bread was really good & my daughter loved the tapenade but I thought it too fishy for me. she ordered the lamb shank which she really liked, I has some skirt steak medallions which was gamey & way too red. we both hardly touched our mashed potatoes... for how much they charge and what we got, I don't think it was worth it but my daughter loves the name of the restaurant so for her bday I thought it be a cute surprise. Not a huge fan of French food either so the pricing really hurt! we had a mixed group, one couple trying to be romantic in the corner, us & a very loud group of 4 who seemed to be regulars. don't think the couple appreciated the loud outbursts of laughter but we didn't care. so I guess just depends on who's there at the time. | 0 |
If you need a spot to get away from it all....look no further!\n\nFor a mere $20 (or less with coupons available on various sites) you have access to their facilities where you can relax and detox until they shut off the lights and security drags your naked ass out to the parking lot. \n\nPaolo D, Regina P, David S and Julie S all give very helpful and detailed reviews on how it'll all go down so you should read them. I have a few things to add:\n\n- Bring flip flops. They didn't supply them for me and I walked around barefoot the whole time. It wasn't bad but I was running out of a couple of the sauna rooms really quickly since the floor was hot. \n\n- No option for bathing suits. You will be naked with everyone else. I am very near sighted so everyone looks like they've been blurred out for public television.\n\n- Be VERY careful when getting into one of the beds in the red clay ball room. It's like walking on a hundred marbles and the floor is not forgiving. I wiped out pretty bad and strained my MCL. My doctor said I'll be fine in a week. Thanks to all that laughed at me (wife included). I am going butt in first the next time. \n\n- The signs say to use each sauna on the 2nd floor for 3-7 minutes. You can definitely do a little longer than that. But one guy fell asleep in the red clay ball room (you could hear him snoring) and I am guessing he was in there for a solid hour. He looked like a total disaster when he came out. Stay hydrated!\n\n- I never do this but I paid $1 for the 3 minute massage chairs. There were 2 types. One was the standard massage which was decent and the other was the \""slimming massage chair\"" which was ridiculous. The latter just started shaking your butt from left to right, up and down like you were going through terrible airplane turbulence and it also crushed your calves. Definitely avoid that one.\n\nI know it sounds like I am just complaining but there's a lot to like about Imperial. The steam rooms are great. I enjoyed sitting in the sheer heat of the herbal steam room only to jump into the cold tub as soon as I got out. It felt so refreshing! \n\nI still think it's a wonderful place that I will be coming back to repeatedly despite my injury. | 1 |

I've always wondered about the large, pretty white building right off of South & East boulevards. And then I heard about a Tidbits launch party launching at Alexander Scott...a new interiors and home furnishings biz housed in that very building! \n\nFirst of all, it's huge. It's a very large building. And there is so much merchandise gracing every room. It's nicely laid out, if a bit crowded, with custom furniture, ready made pieces, candles, bedding, jewelry, cards, paintings, and beautiful home goods. I even spied some vintage chandeliers and suitcases in the mix! \n\nThere are two levels to explore so be ready to spend a bit of time in the store searching through all the treasures. While I really enjoyed the beautiful furniture and fabrics, there were a few extra bright spots worth mentioning: \n\n-Alexander Scott has a great selection of jewelry. Very impressive and uber affordable. This was a shocker to me. Pretty cuffs from $25-$50, necklaces from $40-$100, etc. All sorts of styles, materials and tastes. \n\n-There's a fantastic collection of handmade greeting cards (on both levels). Many of these items are crafted by local and regional artists. My favorite? A card that simple read, \""You are the Milli to my Vanilli. Girl you know it's true.\"" Hell to the yeah. \n\n-The staff were welcoming and very sweet. No uppity attitudes here. \n\nIf you're shopping along East Blvd., Alexander Scott is a fantastic stop...for your home, yourself or to snag a gift! | 1 |
I went there for Happy Hour last week. Good deal on the wine prices and I was happy to hear that they have Happy Hour drink prices all day on Sundays. However, the inside bar is very limited on space. They had an outside patio that is enclosed with a/c and the bar extends onto the patio but the furniture out there it mismatched and it has a feel of being a bit rundown on the patio. I would like to back and hear the live music (no music during happy hour). The happy hour bar snacks were pretty good but not outstanding. | 0 |
Wow this show is SUPER cheesy. I mean I'm standing there squished like a sardine between random people and I'm looking around like what the hell am I doing???? \n\nSo the show starts. I must say that the special effects are spectacular but everything else...pass pass PASS. The cheesy lip syncing, super suggestive dialog and scantily clad women??? I thought this was a family show. I mean it's right out in the open. \n\nBut I digress...I mean it is a free show. Who am I to complain about something free??? \n\nSeriously though....it really sucks. | 0 |
The people who work here are super nice, and I loved browsing the costume stuff when I came in to pick up a prescription (I used to live very close). They also have a fairly broad wine selection at reasonable prices, and you can sometimes pick up sale bottles for cheap.\n\nI'm subtracting a star because, like so many other local businesses, they're closed on Sunday, which I consider a serious disadvantage in a pharmacy. | 1 |
I joined this salon about 2 weeks ago and i absolutely love everything about it! Me being a former Bodyheat employee i know what to expect and see from a success full salon and this being one of them. Shannon and Kevin do a phenomenal job running this salon and put alot of effort forward to make this salon perfect. The cleanliness and friendliness is just amazing and to be completely honest i would never think of tanning anywhere else... Bodyheat offers expensive rip off prices in absolutely filthy salons and not to mention being helped by either a 18 year old pregnant girl or some fat white pig. This is the best salon in the southwest and they deserve nothing but 5 stars!!!!!! | 1 |
Food was marginal for the price. The service was terrible. It took forever to be served, and get the check. When I gave the server my card, he said it was declined even though I knew there was money on it. He also made another server come and tell me the card was declined, and take another form of payment. The server was rude, and took his time waiting on us, even though there were only a few other tables occupied. \n\nOn a more positive note, the view is terrific! I would recommend going to the lounge or the observation deck rather than paying for dinner. | 0 |
