Decor is nice, modern with clean lines. Service was great. Everyone greeted us with a smile. I heard one of the employees say there was a new Chef so that may be the reason I didn't enjoy it too much. \n\nHow the heck this got 4.5 star is beyond me. I felt we were misled, it said Seafood Brunch for $30, there wasn't much seafood. Although, there's more selection of other things, I just felt the quality in most of there dishes were C+. The taste just wasn't there. I tried a little of everything: snow crabs, pork ribs, fried shrimp, mash potato, kalua pig and cabbage, orange chicken, pad thai, salmon/ahi salad, macadamia nut french toast, eggplant parmasian, stuffed grape leaves, flan, chocolate cake, creme brulee, etc. Nothing was of execptional restaurant quality. Even the cake was dry, stale and it was just 9:30 AM. \n\nWill, I go back? NO, not for $75 (Sunday Brunch $30pp, tax &tip). | 0 |
I used to like this place but the past two times I've been there the bartenders have been so rude! They act like you're inconveniencing them. And they don't give out samples of the beers they have on tap. Flanny's gives out samples all day long and their bartenders are great... go there instead! | 0 |
Some colleagues invited me for lunch the other day and decided to pick this place. It was my first visit. After browsing the menu for a few minutes, I decided to order the California Wrap (Spinach, Tomatoes, Avocado, Feta Cheese, Sun-Dried Tomato Vinaigrette Dressing, Tomato Basil Tortilla, $8.95) with a side of Cole Slaw & Iced Tea.\n\nI took one bite out of the California Wrap and was in Heaven!!! The sweet flavor of Sun-Dried Tomato Vinaigrette Dressing was a perfect compliment to the Feta Cheese & Avocado....the Cole Slaw was amazing too! What a great combo!\n\nThe only knock on this experience is that the service was kind of slow. We had to constantly look for our waiter....to order.....to ask for extra napkins.....to get refills....to get our check. Maybe we caught him on a bad day? Because I enjoyed my meal so much, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.\n\nReturn Factor - 92% | 1 |
This is our favorite neighborhood restaurant. They serve \""bar food\"", but there's a nice variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. My favorite items on the menu are the veggie dogs, pizza, and soft pretzels. \n\nYou can't beat their beer selection. Make sure to visit the beer cave while you are there and their section of take-out beer for an even larger selection. | 1 |
I've been to Coriander a couple of times and have also ordered from them through Wheel Deliver, because sometimes I get hopelessly desperate for food resembling Indian cuisine. This last visit to the restaurant, I learned something very important and that is when you see a not-so-recently deceased clown fish on the bench in front of the aquarium where you would presumably wait to be seated or sit to view the otherwise lively aquatic environment, laugh and exit the establishment immediately. Don't sit there and continue to order a feast, no, don't. \n\nI, stupidly, was able to stop peering at and laughing about the highly visible dried up and flat dead clown fish for long enough to order way too much food. Our server was new and did not know Indian food, at all. We had to slowly repeat and point to what we wanted; neither English nor any of the many Indian languages were her first language, poor girl - she probably knew about the fish - we imagined her internal struggle over what to do about it...it being her first day and all, worrying about whether she should tell anybody for fear she will be blamed or yelled at or forced to touch it, or maybe she should just pick it up already and get it out of sight, but then what if somebody sees her and attention is brought to the fact that there is indeed a dead fish and that a person who is also handling food is handling a rotting fish...\n\nSooo, enough with Finding Nemo and on to the deplorable food. We ordered vegetable samosas as our appetizer. They were flatter and smaller than the typical samosa, scantily spiced, and they seemed to have been frozen and microwaved (hardly) rather than deep fried. They were cold. Not greasy (like I think they should be). The chutneys and mango pickle all had the quality of having been born in a factory, canned, shelved for years, opened last week and sitting out all day before being served to us. I didn't try the papadam because I could tell that that too was cheaply manufactured. For entrees, the two of us shared Baingan Bharta, Aloo Gobi and a Dosa. The Dosa was ice cold, pale white and, well, I never knew they could be frozen without breaking. The sambar that came with it tasted like Campbell's Tomato Soup. The aloo (potatoes) in the aloo gobi tasted as if from a can (can you sense a trend yet?), there wasn't much gobi (cauliflower) and the dish lacked spice and complexity. Although the texture was ok, he flavor of the Baingan Bharta was completely overwhelmed with mustard (I realized that I had noticed this with my previous take out/delivery too - so I think it's the recipe, not a fluke). The rice was basic fluffy white rice, with literally a few cumin seeds in it but nothing else of note. Nothing was garnished with cilantro/coriander leaves, no cardamom pods were found. The naan was the worst I've ever had, and like many components of the meal, contained the essence of the package it emerged from, kinda like frozen pizza dough, nothing much like fluffy, bubbly homemade naan, ok, the shape was about right, albeit too perfect. It also had regular butter (which I dislike and do not eat) on it instead of ghee (which I will tolerate). They were somehow out of garlic naan (Giant Eagle must have been out. of. garlic. naan). \n\nThe only reason I would go back would be to see if the fish is STILL on the bench. | 0 |
How have I not gotten around to reviewing this place?!?\n\nI don't have an off-the-rack body. My upper body is lanky and my thighs are huge.\n\nIt's been a few months since I came here for their three suit special. The selection was fair and I really like the slimmer cuts they carried. I opted to have the slacks tailored at Brothers, plus purchased two belts. I look and feel like a million dollars wearing these suits--execs at work have complimented me on looking sharp, and the homeless think I have cash to spare.\n\nThe customer service was just fantastic! I never felt pressured to purchase anything, \n \nHowever, it should be mentioned these aren't top-of-the line garments. I'm a beast on buttons and have had to stitch a couple buttons back on the jackets. That said, I cannot praise Brothers Tailors and Clothing Company enough. | 1 |
To me this is the best sushi place on the Eastside of las vegas. More important when I have a sushi craving it's not far from where I live. Upon entering, the employees are there to greet you and as you leave it's almost like they are greeting you again as weird as it sounds. One thing I love about this location is that it's open until 11 pm. It's definitely not fast food but It's made and cooked pretty quick. \n\nI love going here at night because of the ambience and the atmosphere. It's dark but not too dark and it's perfect for casual conversation. I love the teriyaki chicken with salad. Nice healthy meal I've been during the all you can eat sushi and left stuffed. Service is very fast even if it's busy. I can honestly say I haven't nada bad experience there and love going when I can carve out the time. | 1 |
Angry Tuna sushi and salmon tartar are to die for! The place has a very zen like feel to it that makes me love eating there even more!\n\nWait staff is young and friendly. Has moments of being somewhat loud so I would say that it's perfect to take the children here!!!\nGreen tea hot the spot too! | 1 |
Awesome place that I somehow avoided until now. I have to just ask myself why? Stupid me, stupid stupid me.\n\nI was totally fascinated by the menu and had some find making the connections of the titles to the food. Most of the items I wanted to order was only because I could say that I ate that 'book.' Ultimately I decided on the 'Brave New World.' What an amazing idea to place the burger IN a quesadilla! Less bun, more meat flavor. The burger was cooked to perfection and a decent size at that, it almost filled out the tortillas. Mozzarella and cheddar cheese, some spicy mayo, and pico de gallo. Talk about a fiesta in your mouth. This is definitely a burger that you have to eat with a fork. There is no way you could really pick this up unless you are wearing gloves and bib. It's messy, but messy in a very good way. \n\nInstead of going with the hand cut fries, I wanted the tots. Let's face it, I'm a tots fan. And for the $1 up charge, I wasn't too upset. The portion size of the tots was big. And they came out in their own little container thing. Oh my, I was so consumed by the thought of that burger still in my head that I almost forgot the appetizer. We ordered 'A Tale of Ginger and Pickles,' I mean who in their right mind would want to pass up breaded fried pickles. If you've never had them before, you must try them. Who knew that frying certain items would be a delight to your taste buds?\n\nThe atmosphere in here can be categorized as a loud library with a pool table...and beer. Lots of beer. I especially like that they give you a list of the drafts on tap for that day with your menus. I had me two while I was here and I must say, it's liberating to drink in a library.\n\nThe staff were accommodating. When we got there we sat at a high top table and soon decided to move because we were afraid the table was going to fall over. No problem to them. They came by often to make sure we had everything we needed. \n\nThe most awesome thing I think I liked about this place were the plates. They were shaped like books. I mean like an open book. Food sat inside them so you really were 'reading a book.' | 1 |
rehab for me comes in 2 parts. i can veg at the hotel pool all day, but then i need to get some pho in eventually.\n\ni really wanted to give 3 and half stars, but that's not gonna work. not the best place, but pretty good considering its away from home base.\n\n4 stars. | 1 |
Immaculately clean. The workers weren't especially friendly, but our taro smoothies were delish. Don't know if we will be back anytime soon - kind of a far drive from Henderson - but you never know. I do love me some taro!\n\n*Edit: Okay, so we went back the next day. :) Screw the drive... it's worth it! :) | 1 |
This is the new leader is Vegas buffets!\n\nThere is a nice assortment of Japanese (sushi), chinese, mexican, seafood, etc. The dessert assortment is also top notch with many flavors of gelato.\n\nI have experienced most of the buffets in Vegas and these days have been going to Aria and Cosmopolitan but I enjoyed my meal here more than those 2 places. In prior years I used to head over to the Bellagio, Mirage, Rio's (seafood), Paris, etc.\n\nI will be back! | 1 |
Filet sliders - good\nTomato soup & Brie sandwhich - meh\nSurf & Turf (shrimp, chorizo & tomato) covered in a salsa verse - excellente | 1 |
First of all, who trains the wait staff here?!? I've come a few times and the service is disastrous! Going 20 minutes without water is atrocious when there's only 4 other tables. Also, leaving the check on the table is fine when we aren't even halfway done eating, but to then interrupt our conversation 10 minutes later and ask that we pay the bill now, is rude. And whoever their male server is...is the worst! He brings you the check, takes your card and then hovers over your shoulder when you're filling out the receipt. What is wrong with you?! Like I said, who allows to let these people serve! \nXnejfieokefnfilwnrr\nAnyways, the buffet food is actually pretty okay,especially for 8.00 a lunch. They have fresh shrimp, a sushi bar (basic rolls) and then everything they have a typical Chinese lunch buffet, they also have a chocolate fountain which I haven't tried, I don't know how sanitary that is when I've seen little kids sticking their fingers in it. No thank you. They have a habachi grill as well, where you get to choose your ingredients and they cook it for you, but both times I've eaten from it my food was extremely overcooked and inedible.\nI may come back to get a to-go box, 1lb is 4.75, much cheaper to get a pound of fresh shrimp here than it is at the grocery store. Just saying. \nBut the service here....yuck. | 0 |
BURGER WAS PRE-MADE. Avoid. Went for the gimmick & what I heard was a great burger. Received a cold, pre-made burger missing half the toppings (1 person in our group ordered no special sauce or onions therefore, no one got special sauce or onions). Fries were soggy. The waitress came by litterally three times total. To take our order, to deliver the food, to deliver our check. She even had the nerve to give attitude to one person who tried to order water. I understand that is their gimmick but, you can respectfully state you dont serve water. Beer selection was horrible. Should've went to Fatburger, at least I would have had taste with my calories. | 0 |
Way above average corporate food. Beer selection is excellent. Food is good and service is way above average. My only complaint with the place is the menu. Do I really need to read through a 20 page book to figure out what I want? If you're looking for someplace to kickback and relaxed with a good brew and good food; BJ's is hard to beat | 1 |
VEGETARIAN REVIEW: \n\nHappy to find a somewhat affordable place in Mandalay Bay. We really didn't want to spend $30+pp on a gut busting meal after a long day of travel and being a little before 10pm and wanting a decent veggie option it was tough to find something that fit the bill.\n\nThe breakdown:\n*Ambiance: cool decor, good music: 4 stars\n*Staff: pleasant, helpful: 4 stars\n*Food: \n ---Fianc\u00e9 got Fried Chicken with potatoes and veggies, said it was flavorful/tender but greasy $17.99: 3 stars, ---I'm a vegetarian so I got the child's mac and cheese plus a side of veggies, that mac was yummy! $6.99+$3.99 (not bad for a Mandalay restaurant and just the right amount): 4 stars\n\nAll in all, we were happy to have found it and if we find ourselves in a similar predicament again we may go- otherwise we'll hop across the strip to the In-n-Out. | 1 |
I'm never coming here again. The whole \""print stuff in a hurry\"" is a joke. Tried everything in my power to use their self-serve printers. USB ports didn't work, the card reader had a vendetta against my credit card, the staff was hardly helpful throughout the entire ordeal, and the cost of having the staff print something for you compared to the self-serve is close to $0.20. Are you kidding me? Also, the whole FedEx App they have for printing from your phone is terrible. \n\nThe staff? Man. You'd think they'd at least \""want\"" to help you, but nay. I was more of an inconvenience to these guys. They looked at me like I had six heads and treated my printing like some menial task. Didn't make the situation any better. \n\nIt was so frustrating. I've been to other FedEx locations and had a great experience. Needed a few posters printed on the fly and the other guys have done a great job. This time 'round, at this location, was less than memorable. | 0 |
Madison's best nail salon. The techs are always wonderful and friendly. They are very customer service oriented---they are always specific in what I want and ask each step of the way if I'm happy with how they look. MY nails always look spectacular and I receive many compliments. I am forever a returning customer :) | 1 |
So we went to Blue Martini this evening for a friend's birthday. There were 12 of us and the reason we picked this venue was because the band, Daisy Train, was suppose to be playing. They are an awesome band and we all thought this would be such a fun night! Daisy Train was advertised on Blue Martini's website AND when we called Blue Martini they said that Daisy Train was playing. ALSO there was a sign in the entrance saying that Daisy Train was the band. Well......low and behold they were cancelled over 2 weeks ago and Blue Martini still advertised they were the band. Any how, another band played, ok, but not the same. Very disappointed. In addition, on Blue Martini's website they advertise that ladies who wear all black on Wednesday's receive a complimentary glass of champagne and an entrance into a drawing. When we asked the waitress for the champagne, etc, she said \""Oh, they no longer do that\""!!! Why the h*)! would a venue like this NOT keep their website updated? Customer's these days rely on the web to plan their outings and get togethers. I sure hope the Manager realizes how much business they will lose in the future because of the lack up keeping customer's up to date, whether on the website, calling or signs advertised in front. ALSO, be aware that they DO NOT accept Groupon's for happy hour prices. If you use a Groupon it must be FULL menu prices, which are obviously overpriced in the first place for what you get. And Manager, teach your waitresses to act like they like their job and at least smile! | 0 |
Bombero's patio is awesome, especially with the fire pit this time of year! The service is outstanding - Tim is a phenomenal waiter - very entertaining and so much fun! | 1 |
We had a great experience here before heading to the Cirque du Soleil LOVE, which is primarily why we chose to eat here (very conveniently located). We told our server that we had a show at 9:30, and she was helpful with pacing the meal accordingly. \n\nOur party of 4 decided to order an assortment of appetizers to share. We had \""the rock\"" (strip, not Kobe, which was really excellent), crab cakes (also excellent), veggie flat-bread (good, better than I expected for flat-bread at an Asian fusion restaurant), and lobster spring rolls (ok, but definitely everyone's least favorite). \n\nMy stepmom and I each ordered the blueberry ginger cocktail and loved it (not very sweet, lots of fresh ginger flavor), but we both love ginger. Dad and husband had mixed drinks, which they said were good. \n\nMy stepmom and I split the salmon entree, which was very good. It had a great flavor, and we both loved the side of new potatoes. The salmon was slightly well-done, which to me is overdone for salmon, but it was still moist. Dad had the sushi special (made with shrimp, not on menu), which he loved. My husband ordered two of the chicken robata, the \""beef robata\"" (I think he meant to order the skirt steak, but they brought the beef slider), and a side of shitake rice casserole. I tried a piece of the chicken, which tasted odd; I can't quite put my finger on what it was, but it almost tasted old... very fatty, dark meat, and not very well seasoned. He said the slider was good (much better than the chicken). The rice was ok; it was basically sticky rice with about 5 small slices of mushroom. \n\nWe ordered 4 different sorbets: guava (good), mango (good), raspberry (good), and yuzu (excellent). Some of us had coffee, which was fine. \n\nService was fairly good, but I would have expected better from a restaurant on the higher end of in-hotel dining. | 1 |
Well, I did better here than Cher T., but only a little better. This hostess/cashier was friendly enough, & the restaurant itself is big, much too big. With a capacity probably over 100, there were only about 20 other diners on hand at lunchtime. It's a little run down inside, not too bad, but with it about 110 degrees outside, the air conditioning was either broken, or shut off! What's up with THAT?\u00bf? They DID have a zillion ceiling fans running, & some evaporative coolers blowing air around. It reminded me of the Monsoon a couple of days ago!\n\nI went to wash my hands, & there was no soap in the dispenser. Also, there were no paper towels, only one of those blowers that you put your hands under for a long time & then wipe them on your shirt or pants. I don't use those thank you, & no, they don't save trees! (The paper companies GROW the trees to make the paper towels! The tree would have never have HAD a life if it weren't for the paper company!) I decided to settle for drying my hands on some ass gaskets, but they didn't have any of those either!\n\nBack into the warm windstorm of the dining room, there was not over-capacity for diners, but also for food service! There were a lot of empty food trays, & apparently they once had 90 to 100 items to choose from. How sad that this place is on it's way downhill like this. I'll bet that in the '70s, this place was the cat's meow, but then along came Chinese Gourmet & Great Wall, not to mention Golden Corral, Hometown, & the amazing new Lin's, all nearby!\n\nEven with 20 or 30 empty food trays, there was a lot of food out... around 70 trays plus sauces & so on. Some of it was greasy, but overall the food was good here. What a shame about the building. All they would have to do to be 3-Stars is turn on the A/C & maintain the bathroom better.\n\nLunch $7.37 including soft drinks including coffee & horchata. | 0 |
In a very upscale hotel like the Arizona Biltmore, I expect high standards. But when I stepped into the shower on Monday morning, 11/19/12, I was stung by a large scorpion. My friend was able to kill the scorpion and call the front desk. They sent security with insect sting wipes and got some basic information but I never heard from anyone in the hotel again, even to see if I was alive. As a result, I was incapacitated for 2 of the 4 days I stayed at the property and unable to walk. When I checked out on 11/21/12 I asked the front desk clerk if he was aware of my problem and he was not. He comped a $29 meal charge and said he would have the manager call me later that day. I have yet to be contacted by anyone. I understand that \""it's the desert\"" and \""you have to watch out for scorpions\"" but I have never even seen a scorpion before and certainly did not expect to see one in the 3rd floor shower stall of a pricey resort. (We had even upgraded to the Ocatillo.) I am appalled at the lack of concern by hotel staff. It was a completely ruined vacation and I would never stay at this property again.\n\nTo make matters worse, you have to walk miles to get anywhere on the grounds and it's like a maze to figure out where things are. Not sure how they get around ADA requirements. | 0 |
Always on time and great to work with | 1 |

Thanks Brian! I love how detailed you are when you discussed what the car needed and why. I am really glad you persuaded me to leave the car over night to make sure all the leaks were covered. If it wasn't for that the leak to the coolant would have been missed! Brian is passionate for what he does and compassionate with all his customers. He educates you as he points out the problem and what he has done to fix it. Thanks again! | 1 |
Wide variety. Real sushi (not a lot), not fake salmon. Lines are a given unless u go 30 minutes b4 closing at lunchtimes. \nFlora up at the front area taking our $$ was very friendly and gave us some advice for the Black Friday event at the outlet mall (kudos!). | 1 |
I've been driving by this place for a few months and always wanted to try this sandwich place. Finally the day has come. \n\nWalked in and there seems to always be a line but it goes really fast. The service is very friendly and smiling which makes your visit even more enjoyable. The place is clean, very inviting and just the atmosphere encourages you to eat there. \n\nI had the roast beef sandwiches which had lots of meat and toasted. What a toasted goodness. The only problem is that its a small sandwich but its so good. My kids had the wreck and inhaled it. They also had the broccoli cheddar soup which was also very good. \n\nI really enjoyed this place and can't wait til they add the big sandwiches to their menu but in the meantime I got to try their other sandwiches. Enjoy | 1 |
blue burrito grille - mexican redefined... my question is... redefined to what? dont think good mexican needed to be redifined in the first place... when they say your burrito comes wtih sour cream and guac... its like a thin thin layer spread by a butter knife.... failed... | 0 |
I was so happy when they opened this place. There are so many back in cali but i havent seen any here in vegas until monta. the place is small and menu is simple. but simple usually means that everything should taste great. all the stuff i order i really enjoy. you can add extras such as corn, extra meat, etc. to your ramen. they have this new flavor tonkasu-shoyu ramen and that is my favorite. they make their gyoza fresh and they are really good but expensive considering i can buy a entire bag from the store for the same price.\n\nif you are craving noodles and soup this is a nice change up from pho. | 1 |
I came here for a bachelors party about a month ago. The inside of the hotel is interesting but not anything special. We stayed in the newer tower portion of the hotel, and it still felt like it was built 15 years ago. The price wasn't bad for the weekend, but the rooms (including the suite) felt like a holiday inn. Luxor also doesn't really have a lot of options for restaurants, the pool was junky, and the buffet was overpriced and generic. Overall though you have to take it for what it is. There is so much to do in vegas that your probably not going to sleep much anyways. So a having a cheaper room that you only spend a few hours in to crash isn't really a big deal. | 0 |
Queso arrived lukewarm. It was solid due to not being hot enough. My food arrived cold. The server had it removed from the bill but one would think a manager would have come over to apologize. The atmosphere was nice, lots of draft beers and tons of tvs but now I understand why this place was not even at half capacity on a Saturday at 6pm. | 0 |
Living next to my favorite restaurant puts a real dent into my wallet, but it's worth it. \n\nI first tried Chelsea's Kitchen three years ago and I still can't stop myself from going back. They have the best shoe string french fries a girl could ask for with some BBQ rub seasoning that leaves you licking your fingers to the very last fry. \n\nWhen I first started going there I had to try their cheeseburger and I couldn't put the juicy burger down. Now, my obsession is the Brussels Sprout Salad....with maybe a starter of french fries...sorry, it's just too hard! The salad has a great, fresh dressing while still tasting the delicious bite of the Brussels sprout.\n\nThe wait staff in the first two years were patient and attentive. Lately, it hasn't been at it's best, but hopefully it will get better in the new year.\n\nMy family and friends haunt this place regularly and we have tried everything. I also recommend trying Dr. B.'s Vegetarian Tacos...well because they're good first off and second off it's my best friend's dad. And he definitely deserves to have this meal dedicated to him. \n\nThe decor is perfect for us Arcadia kids and parents and disguises the canal well. \n\nLove you Cheslea's Kitchen!!! | 1 |
Disgusting. \n\nWe ordered...\n\n2 egg rolls. : G-R-O-S-S.\n\nCrab Angels. : freaking inedible. \n\nYushang Lamb. : Lamb was tender, but my husband vomited onto his plate when he bit into a Chinese Hair. \n\nTwice cooked pork. : Flavorless\n\nChicken Chow mein. : large lo mein noodles that were lacking flavor. \n\nPork Fried Rice: the best item we order, and most tasty. However, after hair was found in the lamb I immediately threw all dishes in the trash.\n\nBeef N Broccoli: Flavorless and gross. \n\nThis meal was anything BUT good. \n\n$56 down the drain, and we will never dine here again. We suggest you don't either!\n\nChina Village is AMAZEBALLS!!! (28th st Indian school) | 0 |
Wow, what a great find. I'm not a vegetarian, but this place makes me feel like I could be! I've never had meatless food with so much flavor. My girlfriend is a self proclaimed \""pescatarian,\"" so she was excited to find a menu with so many options for her.\n\nShe had a vegetable ramen soup with a that had a great broth. Not being the most well versed vegetarian, I went with the veggie burger. It was a well seasoned/marinated tofu patty topped with all the usual suspects. It was super fresh and tastier than expected. I added goat cheese that was well worth the $2 up charge and had a side of fingerling potatoes to go with it for additional up charge ($4?). The potatoes were great, but it would have been nice to get a small side with the burger. A small pasta or potato salad maybe? That was my only gripe really. Paying $15 for a burger and side is pricey.\n\nThey had a $3 growler pour from a local brewery, which I took full advantage of. The food was good, service was attentive and they had a beer special on Friday night. I will be returning without a doubt. | 1 |
I went in to Paper Joy this past week and I have to say it was the worst experience in my life. I'm not sure if the owner saw us pull up in a beat up truck and me walk in with my mom and neice and nephew, and assumed we were poor and I was un-wed with two kids!! Or if she is just this rude to everyone. I walked into the small cramped space and was ignored, so I started looking around. She has a few examples of invitations on her back wall, so I started to look at those, I was not impressed. I finally went over to her desk and she finanlly asked if we needed help. I told her I just got engaged and wanted to see some examples of invitations and save the dates, and she told me I had to make an appointment. There wasn't anyone in the store, she was very rude, and I could tell she was passing judgment on us. She must not have seen the rock on my finger! Sure my parent's don't have a lot of money, hence the beat up truck we pulled into the parking lot in. But my paren't aren't paying for my wedding. My fiance and myself are, we are getting married at the Waldorf Astoria in Chicago (I was visiting family in AZ and wanted to involve my Mom in some of the planning). If she wasn't so judgemental and allowed us to look through some examples we may have used her, all though I wasn't impressed with the few examples she did have on her wall! She has no idea what my budget was and if she did know I'm sure she would have treated us better, but to be honest I wouldn't want to give someone like that my buisness. Make sure you make an appointment before stopping in this place, and make sure you are dressed to the nines so she doesn't think your money is worthless in her store. BTW - her webiste says appointments are preferred, not necessary! No thanks! | 0 |
This was my second time coming here. I got there at 3:45 on a Friday and had to wait 30 minutes because it was pretty busy. I would recommend calling ahead! \n\nIt only took about an hour to get a pedicure and a gel manicure once I got started! The place is pretty quiet and relaxing. There are a lot of gel options to choose from. The chairs are comfortable and they they use plastic liners in the tubs. \n\nI like coming here because the prices are great and they have done a good job both times I've been here. | 1 |
Not only was the cake delicious, Brandi worked with me on finding a price that fit my budget and created the design I wanted perfectly. My fianc\u00e9 was so excited for the cake and everything worked out amazingly. Thank you so much!! I highly recommend having Brandi design and create your cakes!! | 1 |
Great atmosphere, awesome layout, great menu selection, fantastic service and my meal was outstanding. This restaurant operator has skill... hope there are more concepts to come. | 1 |
My scallops were luke-warm yet overcooked. The carrots on my salad looked like they had been sitting in the bottom of a fridge for weeks. \n\nThe first time I dined here, I was unimpressed with their lobster roll (which is simply a hollowed-out white roll filled with lobster. bread and seafood, that's IT). Today, I was unimpressed with everything.\n\nExcept the woman two tables over who laughed like cigar-smoking circus clown and looked like Patrick Swayze in drag. That was pretty awesome. | 0 |
Recently visited KRAVE at Rio with a group of 15 friends for a birthday. We are from pretty far out of town so our Saturday night had to be good. \n\nA few of us have been to KRAVE in the past.... I went 3 times last year and had a great time. So naturally we figured we go back. WRONG\n\nWe arrived to find the place empty around 11:30 on a Saturday night.... unfortunately one of our friends quickly entered and paid the cover. Which was $30 .... yikes.\n\nAnyway, at that point the 14 other people decided we might go somewhere else... because you know on a Saturday night with a big group you want to have fun. Nope!\n\nAfter taking my friends money they flat out refused to give a refund.... 30 seconds after the fact. They wouldn't even make eye contact while we kept asking... just pretended we weren't there.\n\nSo our group split in half, some left. Lucky them..\n\nWe entered... at no point were we approached to do bottle service which would have been a better deal for everyone involved. \n\nThank god our Friday night was spent at another gay bar that's a few blocks away.... or the whole trip would have been ruined.\n\n I spent 15$ there for my whole night VS 60$ at Krave. \n\nOh and did I mention the 28$ for a double rum and coke. Hell at least get an attractive bar tender to serve me this... not some grumpy old man. | 0 |
I'm so sad to give them this rating. Monta has the best ramen in town, but not this monta. Their chasu was really chewy and I was surprised. The space is really small and it gets crowded. The chairs at the bar were really uncomfortable. And they seated like 3 parties before we sat down when we were there before all of them!!! I usually crave monta and love it, but it's the Eastern location that has my heart. I asked nicely if they had the chasu buns here and the lady was rude and said \""no we don't.\"" It was just a question. Anyway, probably won't be going back to this monta again. Sad because it used to be a favorite. Looks like I'll stick to the one in Henderson with nicer staff and better quality food. Ta ta for now! | 0 |
After 7 years in Champaign, I finally tried this place out, and I wish I had tried it out sooner. Overall, the food really hit the spot. Every time I ate there, I would have a craving to go back the next day. \n\nI always get the pan-fried garlic beef banh mi sandwich. Everything about it is great. The vegetables are fresh, the beef is surprisingly tender and non-gristly, and there is a TON of cilantro on top. The bread is light and airy but has a slight crispy crunch. \n\nThe avocado shake is also very flavorful and refreshing. Who knew avocado in shake form could be so tasty? \n\nService was prompt...then again, I ate there during the summer months, so I can't vouch for the service during the school year when more students are around. \n\nTry this place out...you won't be sorry! | 1 |
Quite possibly the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant. I have never received very good service at Texas De Brazil. The staff always seems rushed and the managers are always very, very rude. But my wife and I go back because we love the food (by far, the best food of any Brazilian steakhouse), and because I have worked in the service industry for half of my life and so I can deal with sub-par customer service. But the last time we dined here was the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant. The service was very sloppy but again, I know that there can be a number of reasons for this (issues with other tables, understaffing, etc). We told the server we were dining there for my wife's birthday (a late birthday dinner but still a birthday) and she did not even bother to wish her a happy birthday. Okay, no biggie. Then when we went to pay, we presented the server with a coupon that was emailed to my wife for a free dinner with an expiration date of 7/19/14 (we dined here on 6/24/14). It says right on the coupon that it is valid at dinner time but not on saturdays or holidays. This was a Thursday. The manager rudely said to us that they no longer accept these coupons. I asked him why they would send this to my wife then and he refused to listen to us and just waved us off as if he was too good for us. So I asked him for the phone number for the corporate office. He gave me this number but when I tried to explain to him why we were upset, he again brushed us off and told us that he didn't have time to listen and to call the corporate office. My wife was very insulted and it ruined her birthday. We definitely don't hunt for coupons when we go out to eat, but when we are emailed a coupon for a free dinner for a restaurant that we love, of course we will use it. I tipped the server 18% simply because of my experience in the service industry but I also told her that her Manager was very rude, to which she replied, \""Yeah I know.\"" So I called the corporate office and spoke with a woman there. She reiterated to me what the Manager had said that they no longer accept this coupon as it was from a third party. I just asked her why they would send out coupons if they will not redeem them. All she kept saying was that this was the policy and cut me off every time I tried to speak to her. I also explained that the Manager was very rude and disrespectful, to which she simply said that she \""can't do anything about that.\"" This is horrible customer service. My wife and I have spent thousands of dollars at Texas De Brazil restaurants in the past but this restaurant will not get another penny from us. | 0 |
If I go to get a haircut, I want a haircut. I don't care what you're putting in my hair or how it smells so stop trying to sell it to me. If I said I don't want to buy the shampoo, chances are I'm not going to buy the shine enhancer either and thank you for pointing out the \""regrowth\"" of my eyebrows but no, I don't want a wax...I'll go home and pluck it for free. | 0 |
Loved it! I went to the 7:30p show on Valentine's Day, and my guy and I were both super excited because 1. Zumanity sounds incredible and 2. it was my first Cirque experience. We were up in the balcony, which wasn't an issue at all. Every seat is a good seat in this beautiful theater! The performers were gorgeous and flawless - you could tell how much rehearsal goes into the show, from the music to the acrobatics to the costume design. We also loved the audience interaction, although I do wish the show was a liiiiittle bit more focused on the performers.\n\nOverall a great show that makes you truly appreciate the human body/your significant other ;) Shoutout to the Siberian hula hooper too...daaaaaayuuum. | 1 |
This restaurant has so much potential, but the night I was there it didn't impress me, or my party.\n\nI was at the restaurant, upstairs, with about 13 people and it was a bad experience.\n\n1. The food was not as nice as it was expected to be. It looked like something you could have made right at home.\n2. There were gnats flying around everywhere\n3. Several of our food orders got mixed up, and it took forever for us to get our food.\n\nNow, I would understand if the place was packed, but we were the ONLY party at the restaurant at the time!\n\nSorry, Shiloh...I hope you improve and grow to your potential! | 0 |

Went for the $9 menu night for dinner. We sat at the bar and at first the service was poor. The one bartender made us feel like he didn't want to serve us. We ordered drinks and were ready to order dinner but we had to call him back so we could place it since he never asked. I ordered a drink on the $5 menu and it came to me only partially filled and no garnish. Luckily Robert took over from there and the rest of the night involved great service and wonderfully tasting food | 1 |
Best homemade chips & salsa around! | 1 |
They have amazing iced coffee. I recommend the vanilla or caramel glac\u00e9. I've always experienced good service in the morning. | 1 |
Great deck- okay food, TERRIBLE service. I was just there last night- perfect night to enjoy the outdoor deck! What could have been a great night turned into such a frustrating ordeal because of the service which made me remember why I stopped going last year. I don't know whether they are consistently understaffed or whether they intend to hire the slowest people on the planet. I didn't feel as though it was outrageously busy- I've certainly seen it a heck of a lot busier than it was. Getting a drink was a monumental task, getting our waitress's attention required little less than tap dancing on the table to show tunes- and when we were finally able to flag her down we usually got the \""just a minute\"" finger with a look warning us that clearly she's very busy and we should really be more appreciative of her time. I was starving so I order crab cake sliders. Why? Apparently I like throwing my money away- that's why. They arrived just as I was trying to flag the waitress down (again) to cancel my order. They were okay- the bread was pretty stale but the crab cakes themselves weren't bad. Silverware would have really made my dining experience better (as I wasn't eating the stale bread). I was done with most of them when the waitress finally appeared again I got my check and had her wait when she finally returned with it so we could give her our cards. Then we went to P Stone- which is where we should have gone in the first place. Excellent service- great patio, much better food- I won't be returning to Kennedy's again unless I have no choice. | 0 |
To put it simply:\n\nGo in yesterday morning and order the combination pho with a mango smoothie.\n\nWoke up this morning and wound up going to the bathroom and vomitting.\n\nThat said: it was tasty going down and the service was decent.\n\nCheers! | 0 |
Look, this place isn't going to impress you and make you moan with culinary ecstasy. It's kinda edible for the most part and does what it can if you've a craving for something particular that they offer.\n\nOur order consisted of several items, as reviewed below:\n\nBaby Back Ribs - The fat wasn't rendered off very well and the meat was hardly fall-off-the-bone. Their barbecue sauce wasn't anything to write home about, but it was fine. They were edible, but it was a bit of an ordeal to eat around all the fat.\n\nFried Zucchini - This was probably the best thing. Not over battered, cut into manageable slices rather than giant zucchini sticks some places give you, and generally tasty.\n\nChicken Strips - These must have been sitting in a warmer for awhile and not made fresh. A little dry and over-crunchy. Again, edible, but not worth $7.\n\nFrench Fries - This is misleading. When I think of \""french fries\"" I think of thin McDonald's style fries. These are WEDGES. Had we known they were wedges, we wouldn't have ordered them. They might be fine for wedges, I wouldn't know, because I don't like wedges. Oh, they also came in a sad, brown paper bag just DRIPPING with grease. Gross.\n\nPotato Salad - Potato salad is one of my favorite side dishes. This was not good. They left the skins on the russet potatoes. That seems really bizarre to me for potato salad. Red potato skins, sure... but russet potato skins in my potato salad? No, thanks. I'm not sure what all they put in this salad, but it was orange and just strange tasting. \n\nSide Salad - Ok, this was just a joke. The description was \""mixed greens\"" and it was clearly from some prepackaged mix that included iceberg lettuce and slivers of cabbage. That's it. No tomatoes or cucumbers or carrots or anything at all. And, the best part... the online delivery didn't give an option for choosing dressing (which I failed to notice) and so it didn't come with any dressing. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with plain iceberg lettuce. Perhaps tomorrow I'll make a BLT?\n\nThey also didn't provide us with any utensils OR NAPKINS. We ordered ribs and received NO NAPKINS. When I order ribs I expect napkins and wet naps, even if it's take out.\n\nI had actually started off this review giving them 3 stars, but as I continued to type things out I realized how pitiful this meal actually was, so in the end I made it 2 stars. It's not likely a place we'd order from again. | 0 |
Came here to eat their classic burger that are o-so tasty but was disappointed.\n\nSmall location but it was closer to home than the other Wildfire location. I will not eat here again. I will definitely go to other Wildfire locations, just never again this one.\n\nCustomer service was overall pretty friendly but the cashier didn't ask us about their specials or anything like that. The person that cleans the tables asked us if everything was ok and I said not really. I explained that my burger was burnt and I asked for medium. She then explained to me that the fire on the grill gets really hot and can burn the hamburger. She apologized to me but didn't offer to make me another burger. My burger was not even hot when it came out which led me to believe that it might have been sitting in a holding bin and put back on the grill to warm it up but instead it burnt it to a crisp.\n\nNot too many tables to sit in.\n\nOn the upside, their iced tea is delicious! | 0 |
Great wings. Great atmosphere. Lots of tv's for games and tons of seating. Will be back to watch the Broncos games! | 1 |
So we had been driving by the Purple Penguin for the last three weeks and there has been a bunch of people waiting for their Snow cones. So my wife and kids thought we would give it a try. We order four snow cones and we go a couple of different flavors and then the wait started, 25 minutes and $21 later we got our cones and it was just marginal at best. The Berry and Pomegranate seemed very sweet with no flavor. While we were waiting they have a the Penguin Stand, with a donation drop off, with a water purifier, air pump and two vacuums for the carwash and let's not forget the 12 gas pumps. We saw a kid walking for the store to the Penguin almost get hit by a car, the driver didn't get chance to see them because the kid just darted out without looking! There is way too much traffic in that parking lot and way too much STUFF! For the price, not worth it, nor worth the wait! | 0 |
My 3 year old Macbook wouldn't load the new Snow Leopard for some reason so I took it in for an appointment. First the \""Genius\"" (Idiot) says I've got a bad optical drive, so he hooks it up to his genius box to install the software. After an hour, he says it wouldn't install. He then tests the drive and says it's failing and we should back it up as soon as possible just in case. So...when we get home and try to start the computer it can't find the hard drive. I put in the 10.4 discs, optical drive works fine, go to disc utility, plug in my External drive and am able to copy. Then I erase and reinstall the original OS, then copy back my data. Something this guy did killed my ability to boot up. I then ordered a new 500GB HD from Amazon and installed it, still using my \""dead\"" optical drive.\n\nBeing a \""Genius\"" doesn't matter if you give glib and sarcastic answers, don't take the time to understand what's happening, and really don't care to help. | 0 |
Great Cajun food in Las Vegas. I had crawfish and shrimp, extra hot. Very delicious. The shrimp was better than the crawfish, but both were great.\n\nThe andouille sausage was mediocre at best and I wouldn't order it again. The potatoes and corn were delicious, as well.\n\nThe food is served in bags in a wet sauce. It's not the typical way I've had crawfish and shrimp. It was different, but quite delicious.\n\nI would definitely go back. Give it a try! | 1 |
I should have known from the beginning it wasn't going to be a good experience. \n\nI eat out enough to know the customary greeting a server offers is typically a short greeting followed by a drink order. What I was offered was a question if I had any groupons or other types of discounts. I did happen to purchase a $10 for $5 here from Yelp she tells me \""I thought we discontinued that, hmmm\"". Not a great way to start. When my friend asked if it was possible to order happy hour she said in a very snooty way there was no way to mix the coupon and happy hour prices. Not even if we split the check. I don't have a problem with that, it was the way she felt she needed to inform us. She started to walk away while we figured out what we wanted, again still not asking if we wanted anything to drink. I had to ask if she could get our drink orders.\n\nAt this point I knew I didn't want to have a meal here but I didn't want to waste my $5 I had spent on Yelp for this place so I ordered an appetizer to split with my friend. It was very good but not worth ever visiting again.\n\nHad that been the worst of it this review would be much different. The remainder of our visit we were ignored for large portions of time and received more attitude each time she did decide to stop by.\n\nIt was understaffed and I'm sure this is why she wasn't in the best of moods but that doesn't excuse taking it out on the customers. | 0 |
How this place is not going to have 4 stars they deleted bad reviews, | 0 |
It is rare to give a place 5 stars for me! Let alone write about it the same night. Yes, this place exceeded my expectations and I had to tell everyone right away! From the moment we called ahead to see how busy it was to the moment we said our goodbyes were way beyond satisfied! No wait, perfect service, delicious food and refreshing drinks. Everyone was attentive and the place was clean! We ordered their favorites, pork chops, Mac n cheese, couscous salad, short ribs, Jamaican jerk calamari and chicken. All were simply mouthwatering. The pork chops were huge and juicy with the right balance of flavors. Definitely sharing portions! Their bread basket had a variety to choose from. Now to the drinks; pineapple infused martini, gin and tonic, and this citrus drink (I forgot the name) were all so yummy...try em all! Just have a DD ;).\n\nOur service, especially Nick our server, was impeccable. Nick was one of the most knowledgable and attentive servers I've ever known. He knew his menu, and everything he recommended was spot on! I could tell he was a food junkie like me, and described all of his best meals like I would. They were so accommodating to my one year old boy and offered more of the tiny muffin bread he enjoyed. We are definitely going back to try their brunch. Hope our next visit is just as amazing as this one! Wished they opened another place near the GVR area. | 1 |
Who needs a dollar menu meal when one can get a delicious sandwich here. It's Vietnamese to go. Once you try one you will keep coming back.\n\nStill as good as ever. The owner is retiring but his son is taking over. | 1 |
We were a party of ten. Most of us ordered off the lunch special menu. It took forever for the food to come. When it did, only half of us received our order, had to wait a couple of minutes for the other five to receive their food. The wait staff was just okay. The kitchen on the other hand, has issues. Quality of food has declined over the years at red lobster in my opinion. \n\nTo top it off, one of our members found a shard of glass in their iced tea drink..! Wait staff just matter of fact about it..!\n\nWill not be returning. | 0 |
I planned my birthday party to be held at this location last month and these people really delivered.\n\nI had a group of about 25 and had setup reservations for the lounge area.\n\nI showed up and they allowed me to choose how I wanted the seating arranged which was great and they had it done in less then 10 min.\n\nThe waiters were very understanding and very nice. There were no struggles with orders and no conflicts what so ever with anything. Everyone had fun and enjoyed being here I personally absolutely love this location and the staff here are seriously beyond fucking great. Really great managers too I reccomend anyone to go that loves eating tapas. | 1 |
The last time I had eaten at the Olive Garden was in January of 2011 at this same location. I took a friend of mine from out of town as she had never eaten there as I was raving about their bottomless salads. We both ordered a shrimp and pasta dish. When they brought the food out and placed it in front of us, I could tell immediately that something was wrong. The shrimp looked like it had been cooked some while before and then just mixed in with the pasta and sauce to cover. Before I even took a taste, I knew that shrimp was going to taste rubbery! And boy did it. To top it off, I found nose hairs as I got 1/4 of a way through it on one of the noodles. I signaled to the waitress who came over and looked at it also. She didn't even argue with me; those were definitely some dirty cooks nose hairs. So she asked me if I wanted something else to which I replied, \""No, I've lost my appetite.\"" \nNext, the manager came over to apologize which I thought was a nice gesture. \n\nThinking it was just a fluke, I took a client this time over to this same Olive Garden last week which was almost a year to the date later. I ordered the salad and an appetizer. She ordered the spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread. I couldn't believe it when she showed me what she had found mixed in with her spaghetti; yes, she was holding up a long string of spaghetti with a long brown head hair hanging from the fork. That did it; I felt like throwing up on the spot triggering at that moment my memory of those nose hairs last year on MY pasta. \n\nI don't know what is going on in those kitchens over there, but that is it for me! I'm done with this place! This just tells me that there is no oversight as to what is going on in those kitchens over there. Yuk! The health department needs to take a really close look in these restaurant kitchens as to how the help is handling their personal hygiene when working with food served to the public. | 0 |
Favorite random store in Madison\n\nThe small store is full of as many random office, kitchen, and entertainment trinkets as possible. They have unique wine bottle openers and holders, oven mits, plenty of plant related things, notepads, books, gift wrap, luggage tags, cards, dishes, watches, laptop cases ($35-$50), you name it. There's so much to see in this store! Things there seem a little overpriced to me, but it's all so cute I don't know how you can resist it. Best gift shop downtown | 1 |
As a HUGE lover of candy stores, I had been looking forward to coming here for awhile.\nI was let down :(\n*The candy selection isn't very large.\n*Lollipops are $25 (um.. what, you slap the word \""couture\"" on something and expect to be able to charge $20 more than what it's worth? I don't think so).\n*I thought they'd have a variety of different candies that are hard to find, interesting, etc. But no, the only thing that peaked the interest of my tastebuds at all were the chocolate covered gummy bears. And even those weren't that tasty.\n*Most of the candy I got ended up being stale, gross, and it was ultimately overpriced. | 0 |
It pains me to write a below average review for Kaya. I have loved Kaya for years but have been away from the restaurant for quite a while because recent menus did not appeal to my wife and I enough. Anyway my wife convinced me that we needed to go back so we did. While I was pleased with the current menu and received excellent service, the execution of the meal was very disappointing. \n\nI don't know if Big Burrito is using Kaya as the entry level for new kitchen staff but the mistakes were very frustrating. The conch hushpuppies were overseasoned to the point that my wife could not eat them. The problem repeated itself with my wife's entree. She ordered the tacos with tempura avocado. Half of the avocado was seasoned and the other had no salt whatsoever. I ordered the heirloom tomato BLT which came with a side salad. My salad was completely without dressing and one of the heirloom tomatoes on my sandwich had a huge (2-3 in) section that was brown and woody. This points to a lack of attention to detail on the basics. It is exactly what I would expect from inexperienced staff. \n\nThe staff and manager were very helpful with these problems and quite apologetic and we appreciated their concern. Overall I loved the concept of the food and were it not for the poor execution we would have had a wonderful meal. I have been eating at Big Burrito restaurants since the original Mad Mex opened and will continue to do so. However I will have to think long and hard before I return to Kaya based on these problems. I hope they invest some time in attention to detail in the kitchen and improving their staff training. | 0 |
Incredibly slow service. | 0 |
If I could give negative stars, I would... First off, all of their mexican food is grossly overpriced and their delivery takes FOREVER, but their burgers were good and they delivered to our work so we still ordered. Then our orders started getting messed up (one time there was a whole burger missing) and then this girl started answering the phone to take orders that I couldn't understand and she couldn't understand me. Today I have OFFICIALLY HAD ENOUGH!!! We called in our order (keeping it as simple as possible), they have stopped carrying Mr. Pibb (which is my friend's fav) and talked to me like I was an idiot about it. FOR ONCE I was given a short & reasonable estimated delivery time... Then my phone rang and I was told that my order would have to be picked up if we still wanted it & they were under new management and will no longer be delivering to our office b/c it's too far away... Meanwhile another group JUST ordered from them on Monday! And our whole office gives them a LOT of business and they just dumped us like that? Nope... Never again... | 0 |
OK, I fell off of the wagon and went to a chain restaurant, but only because our friend wanted to fo there for her birthday. I will say that I do like this \""American Chinese\"" restaurant. I ordered the Sichuan Scallops and they were very tasty. I like the fact that they serve brown rice. I only waited about 10 minutes to be seated and we had excellent service from Alex. We also had Crispy Honey Chicken and Mongolian Beef at our table. All was good. This is a chain that has NEVER disappointed me, no matter what city. | 1 |
Let me say this, it shouldn't be that hard to mix a drink. Don't get me wrong, I don't go to old town on a Saturday night and expect them to make me a manhattan, but I do expect a lounge type bar to be able to execute anything on it's drink menu. Sidebar completely succeeds there. And with a hip decor, friendly barkeeps, and ample seating Sidebar earns a five star rating (because, though the prices may seem high, you're actually getting that exemplary drink -- take note Applebees/airport bars). | 1 |
I never thought about reviewing my bug man, but when I have such a great experience, no matter the company, I like to give credit where its due. I have been using SinTech for about 4 years, and I would not even consider calling another company. \nIn the Vegas heat, it is not an easy task getting rid of all the critters that come out, looking for cool air. I had a crazy ant infestation a few years back where I considered throwing away everything in my kitchen. After one super spray from these guys, that was not necessary. \nPrice is very reasonable, and I have never once seen anything but dead bugs after they leave. I just moved into a new home and it went from pretty bad, to great after a spray from Jeremy. \nThey call us to remind us when it's our time, which totally helps my busy schedule. \nThey work around me and come at the end of the business day, even when it's over 100 out. Just an all around good company, ran by good people. \nI never get a bad or shady feeling. I never have bug issues after they leave, and I always get GREAT customer service. \nWhat more can I ask for? | 1 |
I was in town for work, and my husband took me to Eleven for my birthday. What a magical evening! When we arrived, my husband asked if \""table Eleven\"" was at all available, and to our delight, it was! That's the sort of private balcony overlooking the bar area. We ordered a couple of cocktails and began our food adventure. \n\nThe server was extremely attentive, as were other servers who came to check on us periodically, and the cute boy with the bread basket came over numerous times to replenish our bread. The rosemary-sea salt focaccia is to die for! For the first course, I started with the foi gras, and my man had a dozen oysters. The foi gras was seared to perfection, and the presentation was fabulous. The balance of flavors from the little bit of fruit and glaze on the plate and the crispy-on-the-outside-soft-on-the-inside brioche, was perfect. My husband loved the house-made hot sauce that came with the oysters. I tried it, and it's very yummy and VERY hot! \n\nWe then had the most delicious lobster bisque, which had such unique flavor (I think it was a dash of chili and some Pernod). For the main course, I had the Elysian Fields Lamb which was so beautifully medium rare and as tender as any tenderloin I've had. The polenta was excellent and perfectly seasoned, and the carrots and turnips were prepared so nicely al dente. My husband went sort of nuts over his short ribs. I tasted them and kind of went nuts too. SO good! \n\nAs if the meal couldn't get any better, we dove into the dessert menu. I told the server that I wanted the most insanely chocolate dessert they had, and she did not lead me astray with the molten lava cake. I've had many molten lava cakes, and I consider myself to be an expert on them, even having tried making them myself. This cake was downright orgasmic: perfect lava center, house made hazelnut ice cream, chocolate crispy chunks decorating the plate, and a chocolate wafer with \""happy birthday\"" written on it. My husband was pretty fond of his cannoli as well. This meal was such a winner in my book. I just wish Yelp had a rating of \""Lick The Plate\"" because that's what I wanted to do after each course. | 1 |
Well I did it...I attended my first Nascar Event at the Phoenix International Raceway...and to be honest I did not know what to expect. This racetrack is literally in the middle of nowhere. Thousands of trailers lined up to see one of Nascar's last events for the season. It was quite an experience, folks with no teeth, folks who haven't showered it smelled like in years and folks there just like you and I...normal. We sat behind and to the right of the guys that wave the flags...second row in the bleachers (I felt as if I were at my HS football game with the stands) I am greatful that I brought earplugs because IT WAS LOUD!! And for 4 hours I got to see cars racing past me at speeds of about 180 mph for 312 laps. \n\nMy driver who I was rooting for #99 Carl Edwards came out after about 100 laps because his car broke and I was ready to leave then (mind you, the only reason I was rooting for this driver was that he was half naked on the cover of ESPN Magazine one month...go ahead...google it..you too will be rooting for him!!)\n\nIn the end, I was expecting a HUGE finale...but when Jimmie Johnson won and then smoked his tires...It was over. \n\nSo my day began when we left at 9:30 am and returned 7:00 pm...Hey, I have been to a nascar event now, our country's most watched \""sporting event\"", I still don't understand the hoopla, and I will probably never go back to an event...well that is of course if Carl and I don't get married! (you have to see that picture!) | 0 |

Arrived Monday August 23rd. \nArrived 10:30 am today, rented car as we used to live here. \nAs noted, self park hard to find. I suggest if you rent a car to go out Gillespie, right on Warm Springs, take that for quite awhile (past Tropicana) to Twain. Right on Twain, immediate right on Frank Sinatra. Left on Caesar's, follow that around to Las Vegas blvd. Ignore the first signs you may see for Aria/parking, unless you want valet. Go down to the light after Harmon.....I think it's just called City Center Dr. Immediately keep in left lane for Aria self park. Didn't have an issue finding a spot, but as far as we could tell only one bank of elevators in back corner. There are NO SIGNS TO LOBBY that we could see. So...take elevator to 2 (casino) go left out of elevator area, then left again to see beginning of a walkway. Take walkway, then down small escalator. At this point we're in a small blank area and one sign that said to go back outside to get to Lobby. A nice patron told us to walk the entire way thru casino (you'll see it @ bottom of escalator, behind glass doors) to get to lobby. Not fun w/lots of bags. \nSmall quick line @ check in, maybe 3 deep each Station. Nice reps. Room not ready as there super early, but they even called to see if another was. No luck. But checked bags w/ bell Capt. (have to go outside to do that..odd) and walked a bit. Ate @ Todd English pub (very good, full review later) went thru crystals (super high end, not much there) and played some quarter poker slots. Hubby won 50 bucks. Back @ check in room ready. I didn't think room was that far a walk, esp. even w/ us @ end of hall. Checked out cleanliness ASAP as heard horror stories. No stories here! Super clean. \nFoyer area is first, then half bath, nice sink and mirror, toilet. Then to living room...nice furnishings that were comfy too. Great view. You can operate drapes and lights from wall switches for the less tech inclined. Commands on wall(s) also include open, close and stop command for blackout curtains and sheers. Living Room: Desk, couch, ottoman, big coffee table and chair. Bar area w/ extra empty fridge that also has its own icemaker. Our view (29-197) from living area was everything from Monte Carlo, part of NYNY, PH, etc. Big HD TV w/ nice flat screen. There are outlets next to the desk as well as in bar area, from what I noticed. \nBefore we got further, hit luggage icon on phone to get luggage up. Door knocked quickly, it was guest services w/ chocolate covered strawberries and macaroons - nice touch. \nBedroom next, good size, big closet w/ lots of hangers, a safe and nice shelves too. Closet lights up when you open it. Two luggage racks and full ironing board and iron too. As noted by many -crazy comfy bed. It's a bit high up though. Beside tables w/ good storage space and each has pull out \""top\"" for desk/snacks/etc. Main lights and reading lights you can dim. Nice dresser, nice modern furnishings, another big HD flat screen. Room controller everyone talks about in there, although I think it's attached via cord, so can't take it around. Work lights, TV, music (on TV), drapes and a/c via it. They also have the standard TV remotes for more traditional folks. \nBellman came up and also brought ice, super nice. Brought all into room. View good from bedroom---Part of Rio and mountains (\""behind\"" you), strip, Planet Hollywood, etc. For this suite the safe was in the closet. \nBathroom is fab.u.lous. Just as big as bedroom! Sep toilet area w/ infamous fancy toilet and phone, two big sinks w/ lighted mirrors, scale, huge jetted tub looking out to all glass/view and big walk in shower w/ rain head and bench. Also lighted, mounted magnifying mirror. Lots of toiletries; 2 shampoo/conditioner and shower gel, 1 lotion, hairspray, shaving cream and mouthwash. Also had Q tips and Kleenex. Lots of towels and bath mats. Individual a/c controls in bath, bedroom and living area. I think from bedroom and bath we and able to see the Bellagio fountain show from there. All glass on the two \""corner\"" walls for great, complete view. Tub was great, super hot water, good pressure and the jets are very, um, jetty? As noted from others, ten minutes after you turn off jets they'll go back on, to clean tub, but I was still. It spooked me a bit. \nEverywhere we went all the staff were friendly and helpful. From the elevator sentry to housekeeping to Concierge to wait staff. Saw staff wiping all the machines down and everyone kept it spotless in the casino. Not smoky at all - which is great. Vanilla scent not too overpowering. \nAte @ Caffe Vettro, which is the restaurant open 24/7. It's near the guest elevators and has all the tall, frosted green glass sculptures. Really nice d\u00e9cor - and much nicer than most 24 hour restaurants you'll see in Vegas. Decent menu - Breakfast available all the time; standard appetizer menu (crab cakes, salads, etc); sandwiches, burgers, pasta, steaks and more. Fancy cocktails were about $12, Dinner from $15-30.

Does this place really exist? Foursquare doesn't have it. Google doesn't have it. I will totally change my review (or delete it) if someone can chime in and confirm this place... | 0 |
The bartender whose working tonight has the worst customer service. I sat at the end of the bar which was empty. He looked at me several times and completely ignored me. While he stood around doing absolutely nothing. I waited about 15 minutes before I finally moved to the middle of the bar where he then finally decided to give me my damn shot. | 0 |
zero stars! I had no hot water, room are plain, hallways are dirty just an overall bad hotel. Not to mention i tried calling front desk and there was no answer the 3 times i tried! I then used my cell phone to call and was finally able to get a hold of them. Only thing i liked about this place was that O'sheas was connected to it. The Quad sucks. | 0 |
Very disappointed in the customer service attitude of the staff. Stopped in to have drinks with friends and the bar area was very cold. We were informed the Htg wasn't working but it was fine in the dining room. We tried to open the door between but was rudely informed by the chef we could not do so. I'm a long term customer and that attitude was never part of the Avenue Bar. And what chef dictates who gets to be warm or cold. | 0 |
Very disappointed. Two carne asada tacos with Pico and guac. Sounded good but meat was cold and flavorless. Pico and guac were flavorless. | 0 |
food is good, but check your order. I ordered cactus chilli and broccoli cheese soup, and I got 2 broccoli cheese soups. \nalso ordered a salad and only got spoons in my bag and no pita... :/ I rated it so low because when I pay 20 something bucks for take out I expect it to be right. to late to drive back up. | 0 |
Sooo Good, our family loves this place, super kid friendly too. The dumplings are so good. | 1 |
first restaurant fail of 2011\n\nlila h. and i were in vegas for a fun girls' weekend and decided to treat ourselves to a nice dinner...we chose bradley ogden after hearing about their famous dessert on food network's \""best thing i ever ate\"" and the many great reviews on yelp...to my (and her) disappointment, our dinner was so so\n\nfirst of all, i have to comment on how the meals were plated. everything that lila h. ordered came out with what looked like poo smears on the plate. i really wish i had taken pictures, bc it would really help illustrate what i'm trying to describe here. i know the kitchen was going for some artsy fartsy modern plating with sauces smeared here and there, but seriously, her pork chops came out on a plate that must've been substituted as toilet paper...i'm a very visual person and if it looks like there's poo smears on my plate, i'm going to probably lose my appetite just a bit\n\noverall, the food was just average, nothing special at all. as an appetizer, i ordered the caesar salad which was definitely tossed with bottled dressing you can get from the grocery aisle (prob the generic brand) and lila h's cheese souffle were just meh, a little too salty for my liking. for my entree, i had scallops that were, texture-wise, cooked well, but flavor-wise were extremely bland. lila h's pork chops weren't badly seasoned, a little dry, but like i said, the plating really interfered with my enjoyment of the flavors\n\nas for dessert...whoever the chef was that said that the banana's foster dessert-a-ma-bob was the best thing he ever ate, um, i will not be going to his restaurant EVER. what uncultured tastebuds! if that was the best thing he's ever ate, he certainly hasn't been around the block enough. if someone is going to vouch for a dessert on cable television, then i want ever single bite to be an orgasmic experience. my first bite was like the same disappointment a woman encounters when they meet an extremely gorgeous, charming man who ends up being a horrible lover in bed.\n\nmaybe i was expecting too much, because the whole dinner was anticlimactic. the only thing i enjoyed was the teeny tiny complimentary cup of butterscotch pudding that comes out at the end...i guess sometimes big surprises CAN come in small packages. | 0 |
Do the tasting menu for the best experience paired with the wine or Sake tasting.\n\nNo matter what you have to have the butterfish or beef tataki. The best food items on the planet. \n\nAlso if you are not sure on what to order allow the staff to pick a entire menu for you. I have done this and it works very well with large groups. (Its kinda the only thing that works)\n\nThe lounge area is a great place for a date, the watermelon martini is killer,(thats not the right name but just say that they know what you mean:) | 1 |
I always have a great time here, definitely my favorite club in Vegas. What's not to love? Great music, beautiful people, awesome venue...don't forget to bring your dancing shoes ;) | 1 |
Karsen's Grill is the greatest little joint in Scottsdale. Fabulous burgers, great sandwiches and surprisingly good salads. It's really small, but you'll feet like an old-timer on your first visit. Very pleasant staff. I used to live live in Scottsdale and was a regular customer. I miss Karsen's Grill! | 1 |
Not the best Korean BBQ buffet I've been to. To expensive for the quality. The servers were nice. Expensive for little kids who don't eat their fill. | 0 |
Went here with an old friend last summer just to watch the NBA playoffs.\nThe ambience of the place is weird (strip club-like feeling) and the cocktails are horrawlful (horrible and awful). | 0 |
I tried their combo plate with fish taco, chile relleno, refried beans, and rice ($7.99) + an extra $2.00 for the chile relleno & fish taco. I highly recommend against these two menu items cause it was disgusting, to say the least. I didn't eat any of it! I've had a lot of different types of chile relleno, most being stuffed with goodness, but this one was flat wrapped in some egg type bread batter nastiness, and topped with cheese. I don't know what it was, but it had a type of omelette texture and was kind of rubbery/chewy. Can't explain, it was gross! Fish taco was very bland, lacking any flavor. It was a few pieces of fried soggy fish, with lettuce, cheese and a spoon full of mayo.\n\nPass, pass, pass!!\n\nBF had a burrito, and it was huge!! This will fill you up if you're super hungrrry, but didn't really care for it either. Everything was mashed up inside. When I have a burrito, there are usually visible layers of the meat, beans, rice, cheese, etc. This burrito was just stuffed with a blob of mashed up meat, sauce, and whatever else was in there. Passss!\n\nAlso had the carne asada tacos; it was the only thing I liked. The meat was flavorful, tender, and was the only thing worth paying for ($2.99, but still kinda pricey for a taco). This alone gets 3 stars. \n\nService? I walked in, wasn't greeted, so I walked up to the counter, grabbed menus and sat down. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to order and sit down, or if it was table service? I noticed other people sitting with the menu, so I just took a seat. She took forever to take our order. We got up to ask for the check, ask for to-go containers, and we also walked back up to pay?? Not a big deal, but the woman running the front of the house wasn't very hospitable. | 0 |
Menu - excellent, interesting, creative, not boring. No crappy fried anything. I dream of the chicken sliders (fancy mini chicken sandwiches of goodness).\n\nBeer - great selections\n\nIt would be more Plaza Midwood hipster-y if there weren't the huge TVs with sports on all of the time. Maybe they can mute the TVs once in a while?\n\nThe only down sides are:\n-the water for some reason tastes yucky\n-it's REALLY REALLY loud inside. like, really.\n-the stools at the high top tables are really uncomfortable after a while, even after a few beers. Opt for the lower tables with normal chairs. | 1 |
This place has pretty good pho. Its a little watery and lacks cinnamon/anise flavor. Nobody really cares about service at Viet places but overall it was not bad, just don't expect much and you won't be disaspointed. | 1 |
Let's be honest with each other on this review. Yes, it's downtown Charlotte, NC but who cares. For the prices that this hotel charges, they can do much better. I'd suggest that they call the Omni in Pittsburgh and find-out how its done. | 0 |
Not the best sushi place I've ever been to, but the best in AZ. \n\nI think this place has the best value for your money. The portions are generous and the price is right.\n\nThere's a lot of choices in their vast menu. Not the biggest fan of their curry or ramen. \n\nTheir $12 noodle and appetizer combos are really good though. Mini-chirashi ftw! This alone would probably be $12 at other restaurants. I love their chewy udon, but wish that their hot udon had something other than tempura flakes and a mushroom.\n\nTheir $5 roll specials are amazing bang for the buck too.\n\nService is hit or miss though. Usually a miss (slow and not the most attentive) but still very kind. | 1 |
Doesn't even deserve one star. If you have any serious issues you need taken care of I wouldn't recommend this place. I saw Becky Gonzales due to the fact that uterine cancer runs in my family. My sister had genetic testing and found out she had Lynch Syndrome. She was told that all her siblings need to also be tested for this because if you have it there is an 87% you will get uterine/colon cancer. Becky had never even heard of Lynch Syndrome, nor did she realize that uterine and colon cancer were related. At that point, if I had been dressed I would have walked right out. As soon as I could, I got out of there and saw her using her phone to Google information, so basically I knew more than her. She told me she had been practicing for 20 years...not sure what she was practicing but obvious she was not up-to-date any recent medical discoveries. | 0 |
Love the variety and quality of food offered here. You can come here to shop for groceries, grab a meal, get some drinks, or my favorite. . .dessert. Every time I am invited somewhere for dinner, I always bring a fruit tart from Whole Foods. It is a big hit. The service here is great. It is never crowded too. The Whole Foods back in Los Angeles are always packed, so this location is refreshing. I also don't think it is expensive. You pay for what you get. They have plenty of options of less pricey goods. | 1 |
We've been going to this restaurant for about 2 years now. As a little background story, it is family owned and operated. The family immigrated to the US but first spent some time in Vietnam, thus the Vietnamese dished on the menu in addition to the Chinese. \n\nThe place is indeed a bit antiquated in decor but it really makes up for it in food-flavor. The best way to enjoy this place is to go there with a few people and eat the food family-style. Sometimes you get to sit in the big booth table with the lazy-Susan. The last time I was there, I sat with a group of 7 people and each person ordered a different dish. \n\nMy favorites are the House-Chicken which is a lightly battered and fried, and then they pour a light sweet-soy type sauce over it. The hot and sour soup is also very tasty. You can order it extra spicy if you want. It has all kinds of veggies, and shrimp, pork and tofu as well. Another good choice is the fried rice they make: pork or house fried rice are quite delicious. Oh and I almost forgot the walnut shrimp. OMG! DELICIOUS!!!!!!! My pregnant sister can't have enough of that.\n\nThe servers sometimes make fruit drinks that they hand out with crushed ice. I'm not sure if we get those because they know us or just because. We usually have water to drink so I can't comment on soda-pricing. \n\nThe waiters/waitresses have accents because they were not born in the US. Some people should just get over that. \n\nI've been telling other friends about this place and I'll expect to go there again in the next few weeks. | 1 |
