First off, my boyfriend and I were excited to try out this restaurant. We went to Montreal last year during Labour day weekend and missed out on our chance of eating here due to time restrictions.\n\nThis past weekend, I made sure to make a reservation. Thought I was being smart ... that is, until we cabbed it from our hotel all the way up St.Laurent to be pleased to find a beautiful sign in pure French stating that it was not open - giving no rhyme or reason.\n\n1 star because I have no choice but would love to give them 0 stars. They take down numbers for a reason - to call us. If they had called and left a message stating that they will not be open I would have been fully understanding. This is unacceptable. LUCKILY we found our way south and randomly popped into a nice restaurant called \""Le Comptoir\"".\n\nNEVER returning again. | 0 |
The place and the environment is ok for my tastes, quiet where you can have a conversation.\n\nBut food and drinks could really do better. Ordered whisky on the rocks and they brought me a glass of water with ice and some whisky in it :(\n\nNothing about the food seemed fresh and appealing, miso soup with mushrooms didn't work for me and the seasoning was like bland, sushi didn't seem fresh, edamame either. | 0 |
My wife and I went out to VQ simply for this restaurant. The service was excellent, and the wine was great as well. However, the food was lack luster at best. We had the bruschetta for an appetizer and split the seafood tower for our entree. Maybe our mistake was getting the seafood tower at a steak place, but it isn't worth the $60 for the tower itself. \n\nThe atmosphere, service, and setting were all spectacular. | 0 |
Can't say enough good things about this place. I had the Chicago mix, salty and sweet, perfect combination. Popcorn was fresh and the employees were very friendly and helpful. | 1 |
As an update, I was contacted after my posting by a support rep, but as expected they make no effort to remedy the situation or do anything whatsoever to retain people as customers. This company is terrible and I would highly recommend going with a different rental company. They appear cheap, but they will make every effort and take every advantage to rip you off.\n\nI also wanted to add that I signed up for the Hertz Gold online and they are great. It is amazing the difference. Amazingly enough, I just took a trip to Santa Barbara and rented a car with Hertz and even though I had an extra half day and upgraded to a Mercedes E class, it was still cheaper than when I used Dollar with 100 times better service. | 0 |
Undoubtably, the view at Top of the World is breathtakingly gorgeous. Five stars if all we are yelping on is views alone.\n\nBut I can't eat a view, so Top of the World ranks considerably more south of the equator in my book.\n\nFood:\nEntrees are priced from $45 - $65. Sides are a la carte, which means if you want more than just a slab of meat on your plate, you will probably dish out another $20. I find this kind of pricing a little deceitful and offensive. Even so, it would have been fine with me if the food was good. Unfortunately......\n\n(prices are approximate. I don't have that kind of memory.)\nChilean Sea Bass: $45 - boring and bland. Not so much moist as it was soggy. No distinct flavor at all. It was encrusted with porcini mushroom dust but it could have been pixie dust for all I could discern. It was also served on wilted romaine lettuce, which I think romaine lettuce should never be served as. Better choices would have been wilted baby spinach, kale, or even beet greens.\nI'm a big huge fan of sea bass and found this dish quite disappointing.\n\nAsparagus: $10 - Christ. These were the soggiest, blandest asparagus I've ever had. Were they boiled in unfiltered tap water for an hour?! Cooked for just a second longer and you could have scooped these up in a jar and stuck a Gerber label on it. Asparagus tastes amazing broiled or grilled, with maybe a slight glaze of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt -- none of which will compete with the natural flavor and sweetness of this green-stalked pee-smell-changer. To have such a simply delicious vegetable stripped of any nutrients or flavor is downright veggie blasphemy. I was tempted to throw a stalk at the revolving window just to see what the staff would do. \n\nLobster Mashed Potatoes: $14 ooooooh, how I wanted to love this dish! Two of my favorite foods mating in one big bowl, what could possibly go wrong? Alas, the potatoes were so dry, I could have used them to plaster that crack in my bedroom ceiling. There was some kind of bbq-flavored \""gravy\"" and little chunks of lobster...it wasn't horrible, but I wasn't impressed. \n\nGarlic Mashed Potatoes: $10 Technically my bf's dish, but of course I noshed too. Dry. Uninspired. And I couldn't discern any real garlic. Roast those suckers and blend them in, folks. \n\nRibeye: $50 bf's meal since I don't eat cow. He actually liked his meal; it was cooked perfectly and had great texture. However, he said he had better. On many occasions.\n\nOverall, my impression is that Top of the World caters to a very base culinary crowd. Those whom are so distracted and awestruck by the view that they actually think the mediocre food they are shoveling into their mouth tastes good. \n\nWe ended up spending almost $200 for a dinner for two (I'm including the $40+ it cost us to get from MGM to Stratosphere and back, because I'm a bit bitter about it. I would have been so much happier eating at any of the restaurants within our own hotel). We didn't even order any wine, alchohol, or dessert.\n\nAfter dinner, we took the elevator up to the Observatory Deck (outdoor), which was **incredible**! You can see all of Vegas, including the main strip. I tried to convince my pusssy bf to ride the roller-coaster with me, but he wasn't having it. \n\nBottom Line: eat at a REAL restaurant, then go up to the Observatory Deck for the astounding view, without the huge markup on sub-par, \""Black Angus\"" type food. | 0 |
A 5-star rating for this buffet is definitely under-rated!\n(scroll down for the summary if you don't feel like reading my review, lol)\n\nIf you are looking for a new buffet to try in Vegas, you have to come to Studio B Buffet! I've been here twice with the same group of friends and we all agree that this buffet is better than Wynn's and Bellagio's. Studio B offers a wide selection and I must say, most of the items on the menu are very de-lish!! (Other buffets only have a couple of selections that are good).\n\nIf you come here, you must try their OXTAIL SOUP... it doesn't look as appetizing, but believe me, your tummy will be pleased and you'll be getting off your seat to get this from the buffet for Round 2. :-)\n\nOther dishes to try are the GINGER CRAB, Prime Rib (they cook this to perfection! I like mine Medium Rare to Medium Well), Crab Legs (both warm and cold), and BBQ (nothing spectacular but it does taste YUM-O!).\n\nWhile other buffets have Soft-Serve Ice Cream, Studio B offers GELATO!!! Yup, they sure do! They have everything from Vanilla, Yogurt, Strawberry, Mango, Rum & Raisin, Chocolate, Coffee, to name a few. A couple of my friends in our party really liked the Rum & Raising gelato but because I don't like raisins, it was hard for me to like it as much as they did--- it wasn't bad overall. What I did like was the MANGO Gelato! :) From their dessert bar, I also tried their Macaroons and Chocolate Chip Cookies. I'm very picky with how macaroons are made and the ones they make here are definitely worth trying. It's baked to perfection, just like their Chocolate Chip Cookies...Crisp and Chewy!\n\nI must also mention they have FREE BEER & WINE included with the meal price ($29.99/person.... I went here on a Sunday).\n\nCONs:\n-south of The Strip\n-wait time depending on what time you arrive\n\nPROs:\n-nice being away from the strip\n-located inside the beautifully-decorated M Resort\n-Price is not bad compared to other locations\n-Free Beer & Wine\n-Gelato\n-Food: Oxtail Soup, Ginger Crab, Prime Rib\n-Cleanliness\n-Prompt & Excellent Customer Service (during my two separate visits)\n\nOh, be sure to open up an 'iMagine Rewards' card from the hotel so for future visits you'll receive discounts and VIP Line passes to this buffet! I also got $5 Free Slot Play by opening one :) | 1 |
This location just opened in the past year. I've had Smashburger before, when I lived in Vegas. I finally got around to eating at this location. I decided to order the Arizona Big Smashburger, $6.99 and Fries, $1.99.\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/smashburger-scottsdale?select=5lRFB7Gm-1U8tkOVjwU25A#5lRFB7Gm-1U8tkOVjwU25A\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/smashburger-scottsdale?select=IRp7RymmFmSQng5DDymnGQ#IRp7RymmFmSQng5DDymnGQ\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/smashburger-scottsdale?select=0uFd1V0_r9BfvSJXA96fkA#0uFd1V0_r9BfvSJXA96fkA\n\nThe Arizona Big Smashburger is pretty good...comes with Guacamole and fresh cut Jalapenos. It has a nice kick to it....and tastes different than most Burgers you find out there. The Guacamole is fresh and rich....adds a creamy smooth texture and compliments the sharpness of the Jalapeno.\n\nThe Fries are average at best.\n\nThis place gets very busy. To avoid the crowds, try coming between meal periods. Also, the parking lot can get nuts here because it's way too small for this shopping center.....I avoid it on the weekends.\n\nReturn Factor - 88% | 1 |
Trust me, pass this place up! It may be good for night life since it looked a bit worn, but not for lunch. I was visiting Vegas with my Mom and we found ourselves starving and having to tinkle after our long bus ride. Hennessey's was the first place we hit so we used the bathroom and grabbed a table. It took a while to get a server but she was friendly enough when she showed up. We ordered drinks and we each ordered a burger. She asked if we wanted to share a burger because they are so big. We decided to share upon her recommendation. We didn't want to spoil our dinner plans for later. No lie- It took over an hour for our med. burger. I think the server forgot to put it in because she came up and apologized for the long wait 45mins or so in. When our food came, the half/burger was not only tiny but way over cooked. It was dry! We were emergency starving so we ate the nasty burger and asked for our check. I would have sent it back but was afraid on how much longer it would take and we wanted to enjoy our Fremont Street experience. | 0 |
Very disappointed in Holsteins.\nAte at Scarpetta and saw this cute place so came back the next day. Food order was messed up and not good at all.\nI would recommend going somewhere else. They were nice about everything but would not go back. | 0 |
I walked into Mattie's Diner by myself looking forward to a late-night dinner. I was greeted with a \""Just you?\"" from a male employee. I replied yes and was told to sit anywhere I would like. Mattie's has a bar counter with stools and booths inside, as well as outdoor seating. There were only three people inside and two people outside. I chose to sit at a booth, one of the five open booths out of six total. I was immediately told by the same guy that \""If it's just you, you'll have to sit at the bar.\"" Now, this was a Friday night with all the surrounding restaurants and clubs packed and full of paying guests. Mattie's was practically empty and there was no one coming in. For a new customer to be treated like this is inexcusable. Of course, if it were crowded with people coming in I would have either sat at the bar or ordered to go. I walked out and walked about 50 yards to the nearest restaurant - which, btw, was crowded. They sat me at a booth and I enjoyed a great dinner. I was thrilled to spend my money elsewhere. | 0 |
Another yogurt place....just what we need. As it turns out, it IS just what we need!!!\n\nThe owners and staff are so very nice and make each visit a total pleasure before you even get to enjoy the creamy goodness that I like to call \""the sweet nectar of the Gods!\"".\n\nThe flavors change all the time so it is never boring. The inside is always clean and fully stocked with awesome toppings...and lots of them! The yogurt is the perfect combination of flavor and texture. They even have a punch card to make frequent visits pay off.\n\nAfter eating at all the other yogurt places around, and there is a slew of them, this is by far the BEST one I have had....and boy, do I eat a lot of frozen yogurt!!!! | 1 |
Not impressed. Great decor, great location - service, food and overall vibe was ack! Will try again in a few months. | 0 |
SERIOUSLY not worth your time (went for lunch, $25).\n\nIt's like a really shitty college cafeteria (with no hot college girls and middle America in their place).\n\nWe all agreed everything we had in there was sub-par at best. I was too sketched out to eat the fish. The hashbrowns tasted microwaved, the bread was gross, the breakfast burritos were legit from TBell (red tortilla), etc. etc. The Ice cream/gelato was the best thing they had. In fact, if you like all you can eat ice cream/gelato, I'd check it out. \n\nIn my opinion you might as well spend $10-15 more for the EPICness which is the Wynn buffet. | 0 |
Why is most of their organic produce shipped in from outside of the U.S.A?\n\nArgentina, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Ecuador, etc etc etc.\n\nDo these places have as high as or at least the same kind of restrictions or standards when it comes to growing \""organic\""? | 0 |
25 minute wait despite a reservation for 2. Passed 4 empty tables on the way to ours. Hostess was condescending about the wait time. \n\nWe were promptly attended to by the wait staff, then had to wait 10 min before we saw anyone again. My water sat empty for over 5 minutes. As the meal progressed, the service improved. \n\nThe food was excellent as I've come to expect from Olives. The carpaccio was excellent. I wish the early impression and the delay in seating hadn't left such a bad taste in my mouth. | 0 |
I stopped by here today to try their drinks and to check it out for a future Yelp Book Club meeting.\n\nI wanted something cold as the day was warmer than I'd dressed for. I had read the Yelp reviews and the one thing that people had been ordering and liking was their pistachio latte. I ordered a pistachio frappuccino. It was quickly made and I took a seat. The pastry case had been hit by holiday shoppers because there wasn't much left. I could have gotten something but it was easier to pass this time.\n\nI sat at one of their tables and took a few photos for this review. Then I checked for wifi. A locked wifi. I went to the counter and they pointed to the left side of the chalk menu board and the password is there. The wifi was pretty zippy, but there weren't a whole lot of people there.\n\nThis is a good distance from where I live but when I'm in the neighborhood for something else, this is a good place to stop. And, this will make an excellent place for our Yelp book club meeting. | 1 |
Decently good food for an airport. The Chicken Enchiladas were actually pretty good. Or to rephrase that, better than I expected them to be. Of course coming off of a red eye that served no meals just about anything tastes good. Still, better than I expected. | 1 |
Great food in a good atmosphere with a great selection of beers. | 1 |
BEWARE! Housekeepers are THIEFS!\n\nI stayed at Double Tree in Charlotte, NC for 6 hours, while I was sleeping a house keeper entered my room and stole $400 out of my wallet. \n\nI confronted the manager, they checked to see the history log of entries to my room and the manager confirmed a house keeper did enter my room 20 minutes before I woke up and complained. Then told me that he does not think she took the money because she is a long time employee and that was it.... Why did she enter my room while I was sleeping at 12:43 noon time? There was not a single knock or a phone call. She claimed there was noise complaint between 3 rooms. Wouldn't the lobby call or knock on my door? The manager did nothing to help, and I ended up leaving the hotel to go to the airport. I am shocked that this would happen at a Double Tree and the manager did not offer ANY HELP! I will not stay at Double Tree ever again for the lack of help from the management. Manager did not even offer to comp my 6 hour stay either! Terrible way to start my vacation! | 0 |
Coming from San Diego, where taco shops extend beyond the Roberto's chain, I found myself hopping from taco shop to taco shop after moving to Vegas, chasing the guacamole dragon.\n\nI finally found this location, which has a friendly staff, is clean and reminds me most of the taco shops back home. Everything I've had here has been good and the price is reasonable.\n\nI personally love the #11 -- 3 rolled tacos with rice and beans. On occasion, the beans can get kinda salty. Someone back there gets a little heavy handed with the cotija cheese (salty salty!), but I just throw more hot sauce on it and move on.\n\nTwo negatives: Their horchata isn't very cold. That may be traditional -- maybe I'm just a gringa used to icy cold horchata, but its not even served with ice. On one hand, I dig it because you get more horchata, on the other hand... it's warm horchata.\n\nThe other is that they don't offer chips and salsa. Every single Roberto's I've been in, when i ask if we can get an order of chips and salsa with our to-go, has given me a look like, \""Que?\"" And then we end up with a stryofoam carton full of chips and pico de gallo.\n\nThe concepts seems to elude them. Maybe it's a SoCal thing.\n\nBut I drive out of my way to go to this location. Good stuff. | 1 |
I have been here a few times and never been disappointed. Most recently I came with a co-worker for Happy Hour and was over the moon with my food and the price! The flatbread is huge and delicious. I want to try the sliders next time. Keep in mind HH is 3-6, and I highly recommend it!!! | 1 |
I am torn on whether to review this place due to some circumstances that I feel are unlikely for most diners: We went the night before Thanksgiving, and so I understand that the staff was anxious to get home and be with their loved ones. Second, I used a Groupon, which was about to expire, so I imagine that I wasn't the only one that had pulled one out that night. I get it, sometimes Groupon-ers don't tip well, they don't spend much more than the Groupon itself, whatever whatever. Still. I was already with my loved one and wanted to be having a nice night out, and I am NOT one of those bad Groupon-ers. \n\nThe good: The place itself is very pretty, good light level, good sound in the room. It feels nice. Also, the coffee and tiramisu at the end of the meal were lovely. Wish I went in just for coffee and desert.\n\nThe bad: First of all, no bread. I've been here before and I have been given a bread basket, but tonight, for us, no bread. Huh.\n\nWe ordered an appetizer of fried calamari, which I love. This was so-so, leaning just slightly negative to positive. Good breading, not too greasy, but the calamari itself was just a touch gummy. Have had far better. At $9 it was a decent choice to start, but it was nothing to get excited about. The waitress did ask us how it was, and so did Joe. And some other guy. I had ample opportunity to send it back. I never send food back unless it's truly awful.\n\nWe split the night's special, since we were heading in to a major food holiday a mere 12 hours after this meal. We opted for quality, not quantity. The seafood special was swordfish with capers and sun dried tomatoes. ($24) Hmmmm. Again, so so. It was undoubtably the thinnest fillet of swordfish I have ever been served. It was beautifully cooked (they obviously had been around these thin fillets for a while) and the presentation was delightful. The capers, lemon and tomato that it was served with were fantastic. And the fish was nice, I am just used to a meatier mouth-feel with swordfish than this fish was delivering. \n\nThe green beans were awful, they were stringy, tasteless, cold, and tough. Yuck. I loved the deep-fried mashed potato thing-a-ma-jing, it was decadent, but they cut it in half. Maybe, just maybe, they could have given us each one? It just looked kind of sad cut in half on the plate.\n\nThey split the plates, so we were each served a very small serving. Generally, this is a very nice touch, it looks so much prettier. But I don't mind sharing the plate, it's a nice cozy romantic Italian meal after all. This particular meal, I was hyper-aware of just how little food there was on each plate.\n\nSince I was still kind of hungry after the entree (no bread to fill me up, either before or with the meal) and it was chilly outside, we opted for coffee and a tiramisu. Both were heavenly, but at $8 for a double espresso, $4 for a regular coffee and $8 for the tiramisu, this was not an economical choice. \n\nSome other issues: Joe visiting my table no less than FIVE TIMES was darling at first, and really annoying by the end. Joe telling the guy at the table next to me, \""No one sends back my eggplant parm\"" was funny for me, probably uncomfortable for the guy who thought his eggplant wasn't very good. Me sitting at my table, empty water glass, empty plate, for several minutes while Joe bellowed for \""whoever has table 22\"" was slightly awkward. Especially when I realized that we must be table 22. \n\nThe grand total for this meal:\n\n1 beer\n1 Calamari appetizer\n1 Daily special\n1 double espresso\n1 regular coffee\n1 tiramisu\n\n$63.00 With a $12 tip the \""light meal\"" was $75. The service was decent, just off their game a bit due to a holiday eve. But I was disappointed overall. I doubt I will be back. | 0 |
Okay, I've only been to Dozen Bake Shop once, so maybe I'm not really qualified to write a review, but Pittsburgh needs some Yelp help.\n\nI purchased, and enjoyed, a humongous cinnamon roll with--pardon my word choice--HELLA frosting. It was incredible. What's more impressive is that I left the cinnamon roll in a car overnight and for the better part of the next day before I consumed it, yet the roll was still tasty as could be. I also tried a bite of a Mostess/Mostest? cupcake--aka a Fauxstess--and it, too, was incredible. \n\nAs for the non-food aspects of Dozen Bake Shop, I like the tasteful interior decorating--cute, but not over the top--and the guy (the owner, maybe?) who works there is very nice. Prices aren't too bad for the quality, either. I'll definitely return to indulge my sweet tooth.\n\nUpdate: Now that I've tried several items at Dozen, I can say that I am thoroughly addicted to the danish with blackberry or blueberries, which is the best I've ever tasted, and the red velvet cupcake. | 1 |
I was just at Noble Beast this afternoon and I saw that they have changed their hours- they are now open on Mondays! | 1 |
Was looking forward to going here but ended up being disappointed. Had the barbacoa burrito which was really runny and the seasoning on it I did not care for. The atmosphere was nice though. | 0 |
Food was alway okay... Figured I was eating heathy so it did need to be amazing. BUT I always enjoyed the \""low calorie\"" cookies. Only 27c each, and tasted great. But they lied to us, THEY LIED TO US!!!!!! They are 160+ each. Almost 1000 for the pack of six vs 170. OMG. I will never go back to these scammers. | 0 |
Quite possibly the worst hotel I've ever had the misfortune to stay in. One wonders if anyone has ever cleaned anything in this hotel. Sticky carpets, stained everything, water damage, half painted walls, cobwebs everywhere, you get the point. Staff is quite friendly but generally unhelpful. Almost any hotel in the area would be better than this. | 0 |
Probably my favorite place to hang out. Board games, more board games, and some more. Fun night every time I go. | 1 |
I don't usually feel compelled to review fast food, but this Wendy's location has disappointed me so many times, it deserves a review.\n\nIt fails at the primary goal of eating a CHAIN fast food restaurant: consistency. Depending on when you go there, you might get a great burger or an almost cold one where the cheese isn't even going to melt.\n\nThe staff, as nice as most of them are, seem overworked, frantic at times and poorly trained.\n\nAsking them for a baked potato sometimes elicits a response akin to having asked them to predict the next set of lottery numbers. \n\nThis is an example of how to do a Wendy's franchise in the WRONG way.\n\nI don't blame the kids who work there, I blame the management and franchise (?) owners. | 0 |
My only direct experience with these guys was when I ordered flowers for my wife's anniversary present. My initial conversation with the owner was very promising, in which he said that he could gladly make it a small and simply elegant bouquet, featuring purple to match our wedding flower colors, and involving a lot of reassuring yeses (picturing head-nodding as well). But instead, after charging about $60, they delivered a generic looking arrangement of white flowers that I probably could have found at Safeway for $15. I love supporting local businesses -- only if they are reliable enough to deliver on promises. Not sure about going back here again. | 0 |
This place is a rip off. I went to see if they could put the back part of my watch back on and they said it would be $19.95! Another jeweler in the mall did it for free. There is a place called Anthony's watch repair on Windmill and Pecos, I recommend going there instead!!!! | 0 |
One star for the decent but waaaaaay overpriced turkey which to go. No stars for the rudeness of the quote service unquote. AN obvious trend here, talk back to overpaying customers about the price of a side soup and by no means thank anyone for their business. Was so angry, had to walk out. young female server at the counter....learn some manners. I will never return to this joke of a deli. | 0 |
We didn't enjoy our meal because of loud - mouthed staff. When we asked them to tone it down, one of them replied that the restaurant is a public place. How lame is that! !!!.don't come here if you want to have a pleasant meal. | 0 |
The food was OK, service OK (she never smiled once), prices abit high for the product. Then while paying.....our bill was 44 and change and they wouldn't accept our $50.00 bill. Told us to go break it at the store next store. There was no sign posted either. I'll never go back there when there are so many better places in this city to go. | 0 |
Great car wash! Lots of soap! Free vacuum! I can't believe its only for $5! \n\nWhen you drive in, a person is there to lather soap onto your front and back window shields. After you drive through, he comes and helps you dry a bit! I'm not sure if they accept tips, he came and went quite quickly.\n\nThey also have this cool vacuum thingy that you can run your car mats through. It kind of reminds me of a pizza machine thing... You just slide your floor mat thru and voila! All clean!\n\nI'd definitely would return to Blondies Car Wash when I visit LV again. I wish they had a chain out in Los Angeles -- they're a lot better than some of the $10 car washes out here! | 1 |
Thankfully I had previously purchased a restaurant.com voucher for this place (pay $2 for $25 or something). While the food was alright... nothing spectacular by any means, I thought it was over-priced and really not worth going back to. | 0 |
Wonderful breakfast. We were going to the casino and decided to stop for breakfast. We shared the Masarati omelette and it was so good we will look for reasons to come back...even though it's an hour from home. Don't miss the home fried potatoes that come with it. Absolutely fantastic. Had no problems with the wait. They have recently enlarged.\nThe help was friendly and we would definitely return!!! | 1 |
Not the type of restaurant I was expecting. Order and seat yourself style.\n\nPrices are low. Taste is very bland - no spices, no seasoning. VERY AMERICAN, no real Mexican flavor to it. Boring! Salsa bar is a great idea, but even that has no flavor. The hot salsa was more of a mild flavor.\n\nCustomer service is amazing though! Never had to get up to fill up my drink, constantly asking you if you need anything too.\n\nI probably wouldn't come here again, although I am glad I tried it, I would prefer to go somewhere with a little more flavor. | 0 |
This is a review on the poutine: Seriously disappointing. This mess of a dish was served with a clump of cheese curds that was mashed together (think golf ball sized cheese curd) vs. being spread throughout the dish. The \""gravy\"" was some kind of sweet jus - not the usually thicker gravy you usually get w/poutine. \n\nDo not order this dish if you are expecting traditional poutine. | 0 |
Just wanted to write a review to chip in with what the others said. I would not recommend going. If you have little kids (under 8 maybe), they might like it but unless you have a lot of money to waste it probably wouldn't be worth finding out. A lot of the attractions are not very accurate. There's one where you strike a pose and you summon a superhero based on your pose. 8 out of 10 people would change their pose and summon the same superhero. Also, there's nowhere to sit. You wait in line after line and nowhere to sit. By the end, we were excited for the sitting ride. That actually was a cool part; really, the only cool part. Yeah, just thinking about it now depresses me a bit. I would gladly have the memories erased from my brain if I could have the money back. | 0 |
Great food as always just the slowest drive thru of any of the in n outs in the area. | 1 |
I came back because I was in the area while my oil was getting changed and I had time to kill. This time, there was a much greater selection and I ended up walking out with a dress and some yoga pants. About a week later, I was there again and purchased a top an a swimsuit cover up. I guess it depends on the time of year that you go as far as the selection goes. Employees have a bit of an attitude- thy spend most of their time talking to each other and seem annoyed when you \""interrupt\"" their conversation to ask a question. Oh well, I guess you can't get both good customer service and fashion steals- if I have to pick one, I'll take the latter! | 1 |
We are looking at Surprise Az. to retire to. We had a question about solar panels. So my wife called Leolinda to ask a specific question. Does Del Webb in this community allow solar panels on the roof? This is a very simple question, the idea is that in the summer in Surprise, Az. people tend to run there air conditioners 7/24 for months due to the heat. Solar panels would help to keep the electric bill down. When my wife asked the question there was a complete dead silence then she said in a very nasty way, \""why would you want to put solar panels on your roof in the first place?. If she is that stupid not to know the answer to that question she should stay out of the real estate business completely. We will not consider using her to buy our retirement home in Surprise and that is for sure! | 0 |
I don't know where to start... from the horrific service, the grease-laden healthy egg white omelet or the filthy table. This has to be one of the worst eating experiences I've had in Vegas...I will not even attempt to refer to it as dining. The server was dirty, dumb and overly polite to compensate for his service short comings. The food listed as a healthy choice is anything but healthy. I ordered the egg white omelet that was so grease-laden I couldn't taste anything but dirty grease; the omelet was brown instead of what you anticipate an egg white omelet should look like. The coffee was cold, the french fries were cold, we had to ask several times for utensils, and when we received them we just asked for the check. We also noticed the 'manager' was in the kitchen expediting the orders..that is never a good sign and when we asked to speak with him, he made eye contact and seated other unknowing patrons, never returning to speak with us. \n\nDo yourself a favor and go down the street and eat a Coco's. | 0 |
Our awesome butler at the Skylofts got us last minute reservations here on Valentine's Day weekend. Joel Robuchon has been on our list of restaurants to try and it did not disappoint, this is fine dining at its best :)\n\nAmbiance: 5 stars, the decor is classy, full of dark purple plush sofas and chandeliers with orchids everywhere. It's very romantic :)\n\nService: 5 stars, from start to finish the wait staff was on hand and was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu\n\nFood:\n-Bread Cart: OMG this bread trolley...I can just eat from this and this alone. There are dozens of selections from bacon bread, classic baguettes, cheese bread etc. Go for the bacon bread!\n-Amuse bouche: a cold beet concoction that was supposed to wake up your pallet; it actually did! \n-First course: Spicy Lobster with caviar, this dish was decadent and the lobster was so fresh and juicy! They also put real 24k gold flakes in there...lol..fancy fancy. \n Pumpkin soup: tiny portion but it was flavorful\n-Second course: Beef cheeks: Tender and delicious, and the whipped potatoes they served with it was so good!!\n Pork with truffles: This dish was a tad salty \n-Dessert: Their dessert cart was out of this world. If you like sweets you will NOT be disappointed! I highly recommend the dark chocolate truffles, the macaroons...actually just try anything that catches your eye haha\n\nOverall: 5 stars! The price for the 3 course was $169, we both had the 3 course with some wine and our dinner bill was around $500. It was worth every penny though! The price for the 16 course was over $400 a person, however, the older couple next to us had the 16 course and they assured us it was divine. We will probably try that next time for a special occasion.\n\nLocation: In the MGM Grand next to KA. I heard if you are staying at another hotel you can arrange for a gold limo to come pick you up in case you want to feel like a baller :) | 1 |
I went there for lunch with my wife and the service was good. My wife had a bean and cheese burrito and I had a carne asada burrito. With 2 cans of soda lunch came to 12 bucks. They had samples of some banana nut bread that my wife said was the best she ever had. We will definately be going back here again. | 1 |
Wife and I went here one night to try it out. It is down the road from our house. We went in and we were the youngest people in there by about 30 years. This place caters to an older crowd. We sat at the bar and the service was good. The bartenders were very attentive and helpful. The food was meh. I probably will not go back, just not my thing. | 0 |
One of the worst Starbucks I've been to. Slow to get drinks even when there's no one there. They do not get the drinks right, even if you spell it out for them. And it's dirty. I really have nothing good to say about this Starbucks. | 0 |
This is one of those restaurants that every one in the valley should give at least one try. An excellent locally owned spot, with a good modern vibe, and serves up great and fresh food. And if you want to save some cash, there's a great $30 for $15 deal on Local Dines (https://www.localdines.com/phoenix?ref=19485).\n\nI had the Chicken Parmigiano. I love that Local Bistro has its own spin on such a common dish. The chicken is flattened and breaded more like a schnitzel, covered with gruyere cheese, and a tomato ragu is served on the side. Not only is it a tasty dish, but its nothing like the Chicken Parm you can order in any other restaurant.\n\nThe only thing that I didn't appreciate was the noise. Wow, it is loud inside. The tables are also a little uncomfortably close together, but you won't have to worry about any eavesdropping on you. In fact, you'll barely be able to hear the people you're trying to listen to. | 1 |
The red stationary truck in the Lee's parking lot has gotten a makeover, a new owner, and now serves delicious \""trailer made pocket pies\"". I picked up a Panzarotti (pepperoni, mozzarella, and tomato) and a Southwest (chipotle chicken, green chili, corn, black beans and cheese) and both were still piping hot when we got home. It was a little greasy, but what do you expect from some fried dough goodness. The fillings were plenty and the dipping sauces were the perfect compliment. I actually found myself saying \""Mmmmmm\"" after my first bite. And the second. And the third. \n\nI also ordered the bacon wrapped dates and they were the perfect combo of sweet and salty. The blue cheese crumbles also had me begging for more. I'm so glad it is in my neighborhood because you can bet I will be back again to not only get my fix of bacon wrapped dates, but to try the other delicious dough creations. They are also wallet friendly- only $5 per pocket pie. | 1 |
Wow! It should be called CheapSkate Shack! We are obviously regulars here (ashamed to say Dukedom) and they wouldn't let us have a water cup...basically accusing us of trying to steal soda. My daughter drinks water or soda. If she wanted soda today, we would have bought a soda like all the other times before. But to hassle regular customers about a stupid water cup is RIDICULOUS!! \nBeing the greasy dive you are CS, you will attract the less than savory crowd who take advantage of water cup privileges. Solve the problem without insulting your regular paying clientele!\nAlso from the lack of cleanliness in your dining area...you could do for a health inspection. | 0 |
Stopped in for lunch, nice wine list, good service. Classy place | 1 |
A lovely little shop with a bigger selection of yarns than I expected to find. The yarns are yummy, the owner is wonderful, and believe it or not, I found everything I wanted in this little yarn store. Bring your knitting or any other handwork and listen to music every second Wednesday of the month. If you work with yarn, you MUST check this out! | 1 |
Last Friday some friends from work were in town (airline industry- we're scattered everywhere) and we decided to start our evening at Pepin for a bite to eat and some dancing. I have been dancing there several times, but I had never tried the food.\n\nThe Food: \nThe service was great- very attentive and accommodating. We had a bilingual group, and our waitress took orders in both English and Spanish with no problem. I ordered Pollo Al Jerez, which was chicken, steamed veggies and mushrooms. The best part was the mushrooms, which had a great texture and tasted delicious with the sauce. The chicken was a little dry, but still good. \n\nThe Dancing: \nThere were no lessons that night, but there was a live DJ and a good mix. They played mostly salsa, merengue and bachata in sets of two or three, with a cha cha thrown in now and then. We left early, but later in the evening they usually include some reggaeton and Latin hip hop when the crowd gets younger. The floor started to fill up between 9:30 and 10:00. There was an open atmosphere on the dance floor: very inviting for beginners. There were a few experts too, who were fun to watch when eating or taking a break.\n\nOver all it was a great night out for food and dancing. Pepin remains on of my favorite places for dancing, and is now a new favorite for food! | 1 |
I had a 50 minute Swedish Massage that was absolutely terrific! The Masseuse's name was Deborah and she was AMAZING! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a little bit of a stronger massage. She was extremely pleasant and very sweet! | 1 |
I really wanted to love this place. \n\nMy husband and I just moved to Phoenix from the east coast. He's a native of the Caribbean coast of Venezuela and I lived there for many years. We know good rum. When we saw the aptly named \""Rum Bar\"" was only blocks from our home in the arts district, we were super happy. We decided to give it a go on a night of celebration. \n\nFrom the moment we walked in, there was confusion. They were about 45 minutes away from closing, which we assumed was ample time for a drink and an appetizer. I noticed that they had two of our favorite Venezuelan rums. When I explained to the bartender what kind of rum we typically like and asked if she could recommend something similar so we can broaden our horizons a bit, she looked a bit wide-eyed and proceeded to ask a man who was sitting on the corner of the bar who I am going to assume is the owner. That became the precedent for the evening. We asked a question, she asked the man at the bar. Perhaps it was her first night, and that's OK, but a few smiles would have turned this review into a positive one. In addition to her overall unfriendly demeanor, we simply couldn't get over how pretentious the place felt. My husband ordered a Cuba Libre. The bartender hesitated much longer than was necessary and told him \""we serve that rum in a snifter\"" effectively telling him he couldn't order what he wanted. She then brought him a flight of rum which wasn't even the same brand as the drink he had ordered. When we both looked confused, she took it away and started to pour another flight. By now, we were really irritated and felt really unwelcome. My husband corrected her again. \""Please, I'd like a Cuba libre.\"" Rum is fun, people. Maybe not wherever the owner is from, but in Venezuela, it's passed around at the beach. We drink it at every party, formal or otherwise. Cuba libre is a perfectly legitimate cocktail, just as legitimate as the mojito I ordered (which I will say, was excellent, hence the two stars instead of one) When it was clear we weren't going to accept the flight of rum she was trying to force on us, she walked over the the man at the bar yet again, who laughed (at our pedestrian choice of drink?) and waved his hand in resignation. She then brought my husband the tiniest, most watered down rum and coke imaginable. Not a Cuba libre. A rum and coke. No lime to speak of. When he asked for a lime to turn his rum and coke into some semblance of a Cuba libre, she said \""oh you wanted lime with that?!\"" incredulously. \n\nWe ordered the plantain spring rolls with mango chutney. They were utterly tasteless, except for the chutney. It was basically store bought frozen won ton wrapper and not a hint of sweet plantain. Not one hint. \n\nWe're exceptionally disappointed that we didn't love this place. The only redeeming factors (not for us, we won't be back) are the prices which are reasonable and their good selection of rums. | 0 |
This place is totally overated...way too expensive with small portions. Food is really not all that. Nice restaurant and very clean. | 0 |
I had the duck again and it was very gamey. I couldnt eat more than a bite.\n\nThe black cod was very good, but for some odd reason the first bite was really bad. I almost didnt take another bite. \n\nThe calimari is super super good, it was squishy and not like any other ive ever had. \n\nVegetable tempura was pretty dissappointing.\n\nThe butterfish is something I could eat for eternity! It is super amazing.\n\nThe miso was bad.\n\nAll of the starters are amazing | 1 |
I thought this pretty good. A little spendy but if you take your time and really see everything it not that bad. We went through the whole thing twice. Definitely a must see but it will be awhile before my next trip. | 1 |
Top. Excellent service, food, varity and value! Loved it! Kid friendly yet w full bar. | 1 |
One order of the BEST swedish pancakes w/ lingonberries, please :)\n\nMinus one star for the turkey sausage, it tasted a little weird, but overall a great breakfast place that leaves you full (and probably a little fat :) | 1 |
Loved the show. \n\nIf you don't like 80s Hair Metal don't bother.\nIf you expect the songs of your favorite band to perfect as you remember don't bother. \n\nIt's a musical using great hair metal songs, if you can life with that you will enjoy this a lot. | 1 |
Mike W. As a life resident of Pittsburgh I grew up eating South Side pretzels outside of Mt. Oliver pool being sold out of a wicker basket.Now I can not go thru South Side without stoping.Not only did I bring my kids there I now enjoy brining my grandson.The pretzel Shop is a must visit frequently.8 | 1 |
I like Einstein's Bagels but this location is horrible, slow, always out of coffee and seasonal bagels, mean manager and dirty. Will not come back to this location. | 0 |
Going to Montreal i was told by a former montreal local that I had to go to BP for a poutine. I don't like poutine, but I had to try it there.\n\nA fast food place, this place has all the bad for you foods you may require. I ordered up a plate of poutine and eagerly awaited its readiness. When they called up my order I happily dug in, and I must say that was some fine poutine! \n\nMy best suggestion for those with small appetite and/or low tolerance to greasy food is to share, I hardly made it through a quarter of mine, and my friend only managed to eat half of hers.\n\nDang, now I have to go back for more... | 1 |
mmm mmm mmm mmm!\n\nCame for my birthday lunch with my parents because it was close to the train and the only place that was decently upscale in Tempe. The restaurant was not very busy before the Insight Bowl, I'm assuming everyone was tailgaiting, so we didn't need the reservation we had made. We chose an inside table and the inside of the restaurant is reallly nice. Reminds me of being in one of the old homes in downtown restaurants. \n\nOur waitress was incredibly nice, and went almost over the top to make sure we were taken care of. We were her only table, but most of the time when people aren't busy, that brings out their worst. She knew the menu extremely well, and was able to recommend wines to go with our lunch without looking at the menu, which shows either she was trained, or really likes her job and took the time to learn the list. \n\nMy Osso Bucco was one of the best I have ever had, rivaling that of Cafe La Bella, which is no longer open. It was served with a creamy polenta and a great burgundy wine sauce. I'd go back just for that dish alone. The other plates at the table were a meatball panini which was well liked, and the Pola Pola which was a duo of raviolis. The dishes were all tasty, and well presented. We wished we had ordered a first course though, as the portions were incredibly, incredibly small. They are serving small farm and organic products, so obviously their food cost is a bit higher. To serve Cheesecake Factory size portions, they would have to charge $50 for lunch. \n\nThis restaurant would probably do exceptionally well downtown, with its historic, homey charm and the organic healthy menu options. Hopefully the owners will try it, and I'll not have to travel to come back here, which may happen a lot. | 1 |
If your in Vegas on a budget or not you must stop by Ellis Island and have a prime rib dinner and their home brew! You can't beat their 24/7 prices and friendly service. The food is not OMG but its f---ing great! \nTu-Pac got shot in front of this place so make sure you pour one on the street for him. | 1 |
We stopped by here for a change from the usually fast food family pit-stop. \n\nPleasantly surprised by the service, our waiter was very attentive but not annoying. He also tried to help out another waiter's table (a particularly difficult customer at another table was flagging down anyone who walked by). \n\nIt's a chain, but the menu is good and there's a kid's menu that will accomodate a picky eater. | 1 |
Awesome job and excellent customer service. I totally recommend this place. I did some research after seeing a Groupon for another vendor. After being told to take my business elsewhere from that competitor (see a prior Yelp review of mine and more importantly that owner's response), I'm glad I took that competitor's advice. I was able to get in on a Saturday and dropped my large SUV off with a 2.5 hour quote time. One hour later I received a call it was ready. Again, excellent customer service. Chris the manager is very professional, polite and I'm happy to support this business. If you have a Groupon or are considering purchasing one, I suggest you call Chris first and he will answer all your questions about price, product, etc. | 1 |
You won't go wrong with Egg & I. The waitresses are practically giddy with happiness, the portions are humongous, the food is fresh and delicious, and the prices are very fair. \n\nThe location is about 5 miles west of the Strip, so this is primarily for locals, which adds a more normal vibe compared to the touristy traps that dot this crazy little town. | 1 |
Had a great lunch. I had the smoked turkey croissant. The meat was good, the sauce was fantastic, and the fresh sprouts, avocado, tomato was excellent, bacon was tasty. Only critique would be was that the croissant was a little dry. I had the potato salad for the side, and it was ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT. It was very flavorful, rife with fresh mustard seed and the potatoes were prepared perfectly.\n\nMy wife had the Grilled Chicken Club. It was a whole breast of chicken, with bacon, lettuce, tomato, dijonaise on Sourdough, and she found it to be excellent. She had the onion rings, which she was not so fond of, but the kids absolutely loved them. They appeared to be beer-battered and quite fresh.\n\nService was a little slow--I would've expected the lunch to be a little quicker on the waiter service. I didn't mind the wait for the food, but the wait for my check was kind of annoying.\n\nOverall, I had a fantastic lunchtime meal here. Value for the money was perfect. It's really difficult to find an excellent deli style sandwich in Metro Phoenix, but I've finally found at least one spot! | 1 |
i have always had good food and service!!! we go on sundays and never once have we been uuhappy | 1 |
Went here this past Thursday night around 10pm. Reserved the limo to pick us up from the Strip. He was early and it was perfect because we were hungry, free limo ride was awesome. The place is cute, decor was inviting and i liked the setup. Four of us came her to check out the place (first timer's) was thinking of maybe booking it for a dinner reception after our wedding next year. We all shared two entree's (cus it was pretty late to be eating Italian food) and two side salads and bread. The lasagna was really yummy, we ordered some chicken dish i cant remember the name but none of us cared for it the chicken was a little dry, but the pasta it was served with was good. The entertainment was alright not as exiting as all the other yelp'ers made it come across. Maybe we came too late?? Anyways we will be back, but i don't think we will be booking our dinner reception here afterall, only because it is away from the Strip and i think i would prefer more of a banquet hall facility. | 1 |
If you go at night it's pretty and there's cheap drinks.. that's about it.\n\nI went during the day and it was horrible.. usually I can find fun anywhere I go not this place though. It was dirty and full of bums and crackheads everywhere. The shops were nasty the casinos were dirty as hell. The only good thing was the cheap beers that we got inside the casinos. There's nothing there but a few gift shops and the casinos. We ate at the place at the end by the parking garage(seafood place) since it looked fairly decent from the outside..mistake. It was nasty inside I felt dirty just sitting there. I just had some shots and beers since I didn't feel comfortable eating there after I tried the shrimp cocktail... which tasted old and burnt. I would come back to ride the zipline at night... other than that it was a boring waste of time! \n\nTIP: Stay on the Strip! | 0 |
The Teppanyaki grill is the only good part it taste much better than others but the service is bad and I once found what looked like plastic shards maybe fish bones in my sushi rolls yuk | 0 |
Oh my wow, quite possibly the BEST meal I have ever had. We aren't exactly foodies, but we enjoy splurging on fine dining, and while in Vegas for a weekend getaway we decided to try out Brand. We got there right at opening as we had show tickets to get to, and they did an exception job of keeping our meal moving quickly but not too fast. We were at first seated right next to the casino floor, which actually would have been fine, it was fun to watch the action, but this evening we wanted something a little more quiet and romantic and they were happy to oblige with a booth towards the back. Right behind us was a bridal party in a private room, it looks like a perfect spot for a very small Vegas wedding reception. \n\nIt was restaurant week, which benefits the Las Vegas food bank, so we went with the restaurant week prix fixe menu. I had the wedge salad, crispy skin chicken and creme brule. As hard as it was to finish, I could not stop myself it was so incredibly delicious! My husband had the onion soup, new york stip and mini nuttella donut holes. He loved every bite of his and could barely touch dessert because it was so much food. \n\nEvery member of the staff was very attentive, we had at least 3 different staff members check in on us several times. Very very happy with our meal and we will definitely be back! | 1 |
Food was awesome ! Portions were a little small but other than that everything was wonderful! | 1 |
Parma is incredible! The unique flavors of the food are complimented by amazing service. (Thank you, Diane! You are amazing!) You cannot go wrong.\n\nWe discovered Parma through Yelp, and are so happy that we did. We enjoyed the casual-yet-beautiful atmosphere and the delicious food. | 1 |
Probably won't stay in the hotel again.\n\nWe stayed on the sixth floor. There was a really loud annoying sound going on all night. It sounded like the rollercoaster, but the rollercoaster doesn't run all night, so I have no idea what the heck it was. Nobody else in our party had this problem. They all stayed quite a ways up from us. It was so loud our friends could hear it when we were on the phone with them.\n\nWe had a king size bed and our hotel room totally sucked as far as size. It was the most cramped room I've ever been in. You open the door and there's your bed! The bathroom was larger than our room. I recommend going for a two queen bed room, as your room will be bigger for the same price. We were tripping over our stuff in the middle of the night. Otherwise the furnishings are nice and the hotel room was clean.\n\nOn the outside, I'm wondering if there is supposed to be water around this place? We were standing on the bridge to the Paris and noticed a bunch of pipes in a concrete thing under us. Didn't look very attractive. Perhaps there were budget cuts.\n\nIf you go on the rollercoaster, be aware that you can't take purses, cell phones, or any loose items with you. They make you rent a stupid locker for that for something like fifty cents or you have to give your stuff to someone who doesn't want to ride the rollercoaster. | 0 |
I love the library and I love books. Whether I'm looking for cookbooks, how-tos or a good novel, I go to the library. A couple of years ago, for a short while, we had no satellite, cable or internet and I found great DVDs to check-out. We watched all the Chef Ramsey TV shows and I found a fascinating and short-lived drama about WWII. I once borrowed a work-out video so I could learn country line-dancing. Now that was a work-out! | 1 |
I had been here once before and remember having a great burger. Wanted to go healthier this time so I ordered the Wild Salmon Plate (ok, not so healthy on the fries) and a Farm Salad to share with a friend. The salmon was delicious- perfectly cooked and seasoned. I upgraded to garlic fries. These also were seasoned perfectly- one of my new favorite places for garlic fries! The salad is large, fresh, and light with a tangy balsamic vinaigrette dressing (or your choice of several others). Overall a fantastic experience! \n\n-As a pregnant lady, it would be nice if there was more than two single-stall bathrooms...but not a huge deal. | 1 |
The buffet food tastes like cardboard. Our server and the fresh pasta chef were very nice. Vince Neil bar service is slow and the bartender forgot to bring us our drinks. Not worth it. | 0 |
Stayed here for 3 nights end of November, beginning of December, attending a friend's son's bar mitzvah. Excellent accommodations, great value (approx $120/night). Good location, at least for things we did while in town. Cozy bar, with decent view (although it was overcast and rainy so likely better in clear weather). Decent happy hour food choices, reasonably priced drinks. Very friendly, efficient front desk personnel, and in small coffee bar nice staff too. Small, but comfortable lobby. I thought the room was had a great feel, and nicely done / re-done bathroom. Appeared that car park was run very efficiently too. I'd certainly stay here again. | 1 |
Quite literally the best cappuccino in Arizona, one of the best I've had in the world. Just as good as Prufrock in London. The people of Cartel know and love coffee, and it shows. | 1 |
I'm being nice with my rating. Really.\n\nI gave it the extra star for their $12.99 dinner pricing.\nBut oh sweet Jesus, the only thing they can boast about for their buffet is FRIED SHRIMP?\n\nSeriously? Well, whatever. The only people who eat their are the hicks who probably consider it food for the gods and who've saved up their entire lives to vacay at Circus Circus with their 30 bucks a night fees. | 0 |
This place gets slammed at lunch and I don't think the restaurant does that well of managing the rush. I have been here a few times and you typically need to wait longer than usual for your food. The food quality is good and the service is ok if you can catch one of them. The prices are surprisingly low... overall the place is just ok. | 1 |
The coffee here is fantastic and the people are nice. The reason I am giving this place 1 star is because the employees working the window talk to much to the people in th drive thru. I dont want to wait in line for 30 plus minutes and then tell some fucking teenager what I'm doing today. JUST GIVE ME MY FUCKING COFFEE my god! | 0 |
We had a wonderful experience from start to finish!! Our tour guide was awesome!! We were celebrating a friends 50th birthday and it was a great time!!! The food price was reasonable, the food was great and the entire group (25 people) enjoyed every minute of it!! What a fun and unique way to experience downtown! | 1 |
Awful. Awful. Awful. First I called to set up an appointment and never heard back for two weeks. I had to call a second time just to get him to call me back. During the appointment I wasted an hour with Gary just for my manicure to chip, peal and come off in chunks within a couple hours. I was expecting a relaxing manicure and all I received was an hour lecture as to why he doesn't do gel manicures. Not to mention that his groupon said \""3 gel manicures\"". He is closed Sunday and Mondays so I waited and called him on Tuesday because who has time to stop in before 6pm on a work day. He never returned my voicemail so I stopped by the salon today. I asked him to divide the groupon by 3 and refund me for the 2 treatments that I didn't use. He refused and said it's my fault that they chipped. I am appalled by his \""customer service\"". If I no longer wanted to use his service you'd think that he would offer a refund for the unused services as a kindness gesture, but instead I paid $60 plus tip for the most awful manicure in my life. He's bit even friendly. He was rude to me the moment I walked in and complained why his client are all 90 years old. Ugh! Thanks for ruining what I thought was going to be a wonderful experience | 0 |
Ok, so going to Vegas, you have to do at least one buffet. However this place should not be on your bucket list.\n\nCrab legs...yes, prime rib yes....but both were of low quality and the prime rib was super dry. And yah, it's supposed to be a French buffet so they did have some of my macarons, but they were gross and unappealing. They didn't care about the presentation at all with respect to the macarons.\n\nThe food handles were sticky and gross. There's no wet naps or purell nearby. It's like someone purposefully lathered the the food handles with syrup and pretty much played a prank on everyone. Gross, and unattended, and lack of ownership amongst the cleaners and food servers.\n\nThe waitress knows who you are too, ethnicity, etc...so when she saw a bunch of filipinos, she got into Filipino mode. I guess she really wants to provide that awesome customer service, that or she wants a fat tip at the end. Either way, she was pretty attentive. \n\nIt was a Sunday, so champagne was included. They went all out with the Wycliff Jean champagne....whewwww. Mix with the oj and you get the mimosa. Not bad, they even allowed us to keep the bottle to walk aimlessly throughout the casino and along the vegas strip.\n\nFor $30, I would probably invest a little more somewhere else next time. This was more of a cafeteria leftovers like food with mediocre quality instead of the higher more quality food that can be found elsewhere. | 0 |
There's a first time for everything and that time for me was today a Buldogis. I wish I had discovered this place sooner. All I can say is if you haven't been yet it's time for you to get down there and try some Angry Kimchi Fries and a delicious hot dog to go with them. | 1 |
It was my first time to eat hash. The word \""hash\"" in reference to food made me uneasy, but I must say, I really enjoyed it. Very moist and flavorful. The homemade jams were also very tasty. Attentive and friendly service...all in all...Enjoyable! | 1 |
I had an emergency and needed to see an eye doctor as soon as I could. Luckily when I called they were able to fit me in the same day. The Dr saw me as soon as I got there and listened to my concern regarding my previous prescription(from a different place) and took the time to make sure I had the right prescription. They had my contacts ready in no time, I went to pick them up and was happy with their service. Only issue is the place is small and kind of cluttered in the back are. | 1 |
I am all about trying new mexican restaurants since it is pretty much my favorite type of food. So I decided to try this new place that I had seen while shopping in Chandler. When we walked in on a Saturday afternoon, the restaurant was surprisingly close to empty. Not a very good sign considering that several other places that were in this building before had gone out of business. In any event, I was still excited after reading that they actually served you bean dip with your chips and salsa. Not too many other places do that. My excitement went down the drain when the bean dip came. It was greasy and resembled chili. The taste was not what I had expected. Needless to say, I didn't like it much. If you want great bean dip, go to Serranos! Theirs is amazing. However, the mild salsa was pretty good. For my meal, I decided to order the pork enchilada with ranchera sauce (the waiter said the ranchera sauce was great) with a pork tamale and rice and beans. The enchilada was ok but didnt have enough ranchero sauce. I like my mexican food to be smothered in sauce. GO BIG OR GO HOME! The tamale was nothing memorable. What also bothered me is the beans that were on the plate were exactly the same beans as the bean dip that I disliked. WTF? There is a difference between regular good ole refried beans and bean dip!!! The worst part about my meal is that there was a hair on the plate! The husband ordered a chimichanga with shredded beef. He said it was decent but was not happy with the tiny amount of sour cream and guac they gave him. They also pretty much piled lettuce on the plate. I understand most mexican places use lettuce as a garnish but this one had way too much. It looked like a salad topped with a chimichanga. To end our meal, the waiter brought us 2 complementary fruititas which were wonton wrappers filled with a mixture of fruit, deep fried and topped with sugar and cinnamon and accompanied by whipped cream to dip. These were the best part of the meal I would say. They were amazing. If I had to come back, I would just order these and these only!!! \nSo to wrap it up, El Palacio was ok, not good, not bad. The service was fine and the prices were decent. My issue is that there are sooo many other mexican places in the area that are great in my opinion. Therefore, I dont think I would return here unless someone else wanted to try it. I will just stick to Serrano's, Abuelos, El Charro or even McCayos. | 0 |
Dear Mr. Fez,\n\nPlease offer your restaurant skills to other establishments in the Valley, they desperately need your help. Perhaps you could write a book on how to make your food, service, and restaurant atmosphere not suck. I'm sure you'd have to include many pictures and only use small words because most other restaurateurs are feeble minded.\n\nThis world is not fair. There is only one FEZ but 10,000 crappy chain restaurants, all of which suck.\n\nPlease keep doing what you do and hopefully it will rub off on a few other places in Arizona.\n\nThank you,\n\nSatisfied Costumer. | 1 |
Good Points - \n\nOpen till 3a.m! Like a good steak house in Vegas should be! \nLive music \nGood appetizers \nLove the sizzling dishes that come out - loaded with flavor \nYummy garlic mashed potato's \nGreat service \nLaid back yet upscale \nOff the strip and easy to park\n\nDownside - \n\nNot the best location, but it beats fightin your way into a big hotel on a busy weekend and waiting in a long line to get in, walk thru a giant casino, wait for table, walk alllllllll the way back to valet, WAIT FOR VALET! | 1 |
Decent food - IF you can Spanglish your way through ordering, and IF you actually get what you ordered. Management is POOR... don't expect a refund if they mess up your to-go order. COMPRENDE??? | 0 |
Yay finally got to try Romados.. Really loved it.. Simple portugese chicken per quantity or in a sandwich. Nice big servings. Excellent crispy french fries. And a real feeling of experience and systematic quality to the place. \n\nI really loved the food. Simple, but nice and clean. I wouldn't cross down for it, but have found a favorite chicken place in the plateau. | 1 |
This place belongs in a shopping center. It pretends to be Japanese, but I ordered a Bento Box and was asked what kind of salad dressing I wanted, French, Thousand, Italian or ginger. Yuck. The \""protein\"" is then set on top of rice or noodles. The noodles were uninspired, like thick spaghetti with teriyaki sauce.\n\nI paid $8.09 for a chicken Bento box which came with 4 pieces of bland sushi. This is ok for folks who normally eat at McDonalds and want to be daring, but if you already enjoy Asian food, you will be disappointed. | 0 |
