When I won a raffle at a Charlotte Checkers game earlier this season, one of the two prizes was a gift card for Crepe Cellar. We used it for our early Valentine's Day dinner and we really enjoyed it. We were also hungry after walking from the near Midtown to Freedom Park and back. \n\nWe arrived in Noda at 5:30 or so. Like all \""this is a cool and older neighborhood\"", parking can be difficult. We found a spot in the tiny lot behind the restaurant. \n\nUpon entering we found a small table for two in the small place. The place only has a few tables and small bar, but it is somewhat efficient. I saw they had Heineken on tap (a rarity) and for only $4, I gladly obliged. My wife had the house red wine which she said was good.\n\nOur waitress, Alex, was very nice. We started with a cheese plate. Yummy Maytag, aged cheddar, sliced beef and prosciutto hat actually didn't taste salty. There was some crostini, strawberries, and candied walnuts too. The cheese plate could have been a small meal for one person we ordered more.\n\nI had spinach, mushroom, and goat cheese crepe which was very tasty and large. It was served with fries which were phenomenal. They were the perfect size, flavor, texture, and crispiness and would have went great with malt vinegar. My wife had a small salad, cheese grits, and about 1/4 of my crepe. By this time were stuffed so we did not get dessert ( a few people were also waiting so we wanted to be polite and let them sit down and eat). However I noticed that several desserts are served with Nutella which to me is not good. There are few things of which I don't like the flavor but hazelnut is one of them. \n\nAll in all, our experience at Crepe Cellar was very good from the food to the service to the drinks to the atmosphere. I am glad I won that gift card otherwise I may never have tried it. The prices are also very reasonable with the crepes being $8-9 but you can also get more price items like steak or shrimp and grits. | 1 |
Overrated. IMHO. | 0 |
I'll admit from the start - I have only been to Capitol Chophouse during Madison's Restaurant Week. With that said, it's a must on our list every season because out of all the restaurants serving lunch, it is the best value.\n\nWe started off with the tomato and mozzarella salad - our server let us know that the tomatoes were from the farmer's market and the basil from the restaurant's garden - and the \""onion gratin,\"" aka french onion soup. Both were nicely seasoned and solid dishes to order. \n\nWe both ordered grass-fed beef burgers for our main dish and this is one of the best in Madison. You ask for medium-rare, you get medium-rare. While that should be par for the course at a steak house, I have found a lot of places in Madison like to tend toward medium-well at least. The budget is BIG and came with fries - so I decided to save half for later, which made for a tasty late night treat.\n\nFor dessert they had a cheesecake that sounded good, but neither of us could pass up peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream. The cobbler was made in its own ramekin which meant the crust-topping went all the way to the edges and the fruit was warm until the last bite. \n\nFor $15, you can't beat that deal and I'd venture to say it's worth a lunch time stop any time you are in the mood for a solid burger.\n\nAlso, a special shout out to the service here. Our server, Candace, was knowledgeable about the menu, personable, and made the experience all the better. | 1 |
I love Everyday Noodles. They make their noodles from scratch, on the spot, and the broth that comes along is delicious. The beef tendon noodle soup is filling and fresh. Their milk teas are heavenly. Easily the best milk teas I've had so far. If you get a chance, go. It's worth the trip. | 1 |
Stopped in while kids were at piano because I desperately needed a manicure. I opted for gel because I just don't have time to get weekly manicures. I have to say, this is the best gel manicure I've ever had. No bumps or bubbles. Color applied evenly and smooth. Perfect manicure. \n\nCustomer service I thought could be better. Not very warm or particularly friendly. And I didn't like the smell of the lotion they used. But I'll still come back because the quality is excellent for the price. | 1 |
I first took Mary Beth's Mommy & Me Yoga xx years ago. Now I'm back after an intro class. This is a very comfortable place to practice yoga. If you have injuries or medical problems, the intro and gentle classes are excellent. Weight and dress are also not an issue which contribute to yoga's stress relief benefits.\n\nHeidi's intro classes are great (and not too big). But maybe you should try another teacher when you're done with intro; Heidi's other classes tend to fill up . . . | 1 |
I took my car in to get an oil change and to check out some rattling I was experiencing at high speeds. Everyone was incredibly nice here and I was excited because I thought maybe I had found a new (closer) place to take my car. They called me after having my car for several hours saying I needed a list of things done, including motor mounts, front brake pads and rotors, servicing of the rear brakes and a whole new set of tires. To be fair, most of this did need to be done. It's the pricing that threw me off. $350 for the front brake job and nearly $1300 for the motor mounts. That seemed really steep to me, so I called the auto shop I trust implicitly with my car (Randy's Transmission, off Country Club and Southern, a little further away from me so it's harder to coordinate being picked up) for a second opinion. He confirmed that the motor mounts and front brakes needed to be done and showed me exactly what was wrong, but the tires were in great shape and only needed to be rotated and balanced and the rear brakes were fine as well. After all was said and done, Randy's did everything for $950. CarLife would have charged close to $2000 for the work and another $400 for a new set of tires I didn't need. I definitely won't be returning here again and suggest you look somewhere else if you aren't into highway robbery. | 0 |
You will not find a better Italian restaurant in Arizona. This family owned and operated eatery is simply amazing from start to finish. Chefs Sonia and Tony DiFranco execute their menu to perfection. Their wine list is unique, affordable and offers something for everyone. You need to try the butter nut squash ravioli (you will not be disappointed). They unfortunately close during the month of July, so you will have to wait until August to enjoy everything the DiFranco family has to offer. | 1 |
At 5pm, this area is like a ghost town and I wasn't even sure if they were open because the lights are so dim. Luckily they were. When we entered we were greeted warmly. I was steeling myself for the worst because my friend had always received mixed service. Sometimes it is friendly and at others condescending. Tonight the young gentlemen behind the counter was very pleasant.\n\nI got the monster size mix of their pomegranate blueberry/tropical ice tea. It was brewed to a nice flavor, but it could have been a little stronger. My friend had got the iced tea latte and it was one of the better ones any of the Coffee Beans tend to make. | 1 |
Fish tacos were lackluster at best... \nBaja Rolls were eh.. | 0 |
Grilled pork is amazing! I was hesitant in trying the grilled pork but my sister suggested it. I'm glad I took the chance. Love the fresh bread. Smells so yummy! | 1 |
\""Come in Rangoon\""\n\nMy recent experience with Dish Network's internet tech support should give pause to those who decry the outsourcing of such jobs to English-speaking countries where people are happy to have the work. Over a period of a few weeks, I have spoken to 5 people, all of whom speak un-accented good old US of A English, regarding the installation of internet service at a home I own. Two of the conversations lasted an hour apiece (mostly because I was asked several times if I \""mind being put on hold for just a minute\"" while the people on the other end of the line either must have gone on break or yukked it up with their workmates about how they were jacking me around).\n\nI began internet service with Dish in anticipation of tenants coming in November 1. The equipment was delivered and service supposedly hooked up to the house. For reasons I will explain below, it did not work. The tenants just gave up trying to make it work (the internet was not that important to them and I was paying for it). When they left, I began my relationship with Dish tech support. The crack Dish team had me plug their DSL modem into each phone jack in the house and wait to see if a certain light would stop blinking. It would not. They sent a technician out to confirm that there was a signal to the outside of the house. I tried it again, and the light just kept blinking. The Dish support people told me they could send someone to check the internal wiring, but I would have to pay $99 per hour if it turned out that the internal wiring was not faulty. I asked, \""What if the wiring is good but the modem is the problem?\"" I was told by several different people that, since lights came on, the modem was not the problem and I would be charged if the problem was not the inside wiring.\n\nFinally, more than two weeks into my journey, the second \""outside\"" wiring person Dish sent out to confirm that there was a signal to the house took one look at the modem Dish had sent to me and said it was the wrong modem. He even gave the appropriate model number for our service. So, I called Dish tech support back, told the person what the technician had said, and was told forcefully that the modem they had sent to me would work with any Dish system anywhere, and that they would send out another (the third) \""outside\"" wiring person to check service to the house, and if the signal was getting to the house. I suggested to the Dish tech support maven that she call the technician to confirm that the modem was not the correct one for the system in my area, and she said, \""We don't do that.\"" I told her the technician they had sent out said I need a 1000 model. She repeated that the problem was not the modem, that the modem they had sent me (which was a 5000 model) works with all their services. I told her he was their technician, not mine and even offered to give her his name and phone number. She again refused to speak with their technician. I asked to speak to a supervisor. She angrily told me that the supervisor would tell me the same thing she had told me. I said, \""Well, at least I'll be hearing it from a supervisor.\"" She put me on a brief hold.\n\nWhen a supervisor came on the line, she told me that a new modem had just been ordered to be sent to me. The new modem was a 1000 model. She confirmed that the 5000 model I had in my possession would not work with the signal they provided to my house. I asked the supervisor how it could be that none of their people knew that. She had no answer. I suggested that, since each of my calls was being recorded \""for training purposes\"", she listen to those calls and do some training of those service techs. She said they could certainly do that. My breath is not being held.\n\nWhen the new modem did not arrive before my new tenants. I called Dish support back. I was told the order had \""failed.\"" When I asked what that meant, I learned that Dish had just decided to send out modems with Dish logos on them, so my order had been cancelled. I asked that it be over-nighted, so my new tenants would have internet service. The support person and the supervisor each told me they were not authorized to do that.\n\nIn all my calls with tech support people in either the Philippines or India and the countries in and around the subcontinent (and there have been hundreds of such calls over the years), I have never been treated rudely. In fact, the people sometimes are overly friendly, given the nature of our relationship. And while I haven't always gotten the problem solved on the first call, I have never witnessed the systemic incompetence of the Dish tech support apparatchiks.\n\n If you don't want to see all of our service jobs go overseas, I have one piece of advice to all the \""Buy American\"" people out there: DO A BETTER JOB. At least do as good a job as the \""foreigners\"" you disparage. And if you decide to get internet service from Dish, stock up on patience first. | 0 |
Slow service. No napkins. Hummus was bland and the crackers were plain and grainy. Ordered the Hot-Wa-ii and was met with bland and unflavored pizza. Doused in Parmesan and red pepper flakes it became edible. No real saving grace here. Avoid this place. | 0 |
My first EXPERIENCE WAS NOT SO FABULOUS! My car wash was done sloppy. They forgot to wash the black dirt from my rims. Two days later my car got rained on. I contacted the WASH Manager Neil Morgan to see if they can comp me a free wash. Neil said NO and advised me about the two day car wash policy if it rains. He said my time has expired and I waited too late. I was 3 days over. I pleaded for him to make an exception considering I did not know about the 2 day wash policy. He did and told me that I have to come today or he will not grant me the wash. I advised him I can only come on the weekends because I work.. He said NO today ONLY because he does not work on the weekends and we are very busy on the weekends. He then reminded me that he does not have to grant me the wash considering i'm over the 2 days. I thanked him and told him I appreciate the offer but I simply cant make it! HE SAID OH WELL. Needless to say I will NOT be spending anymore of my money at Fabulous NOT SO FREDDIE. I would rather go up the STREET and spend a few dollars more for the CUSTOMER SERVICE!\n\nUPDATE: I sent a email to the corporate office explaining the above situationa and my experience with Neil Morgan the Manager. Chris Alexander the General Manager called me back upon receiving complaint and apologing for my first time experience car wash. I really appreciate a company that believes in customer service and I really appreciate Chris Alexander advising me that it will be ok for me to bring my car back in to get rewash for FREE this WEEKEND. I believe in second chances and I will be patronizing FABULOUS FREDDIE again! Thank you Chris! | 0 |
The food was good, the tables were dirty and the service was sub-par.\n\nThe counter help didn't seem to want to be there. We were charged $2 each for drinks and they did not have iced tea (neither of us drink soda or sugary drinks so we each had a $2 tap water, oh boy!\n\nThe food was good though and made just like we asked. I still wont go back after this visit though, there are many other way better places to visit in this area. | 0 |
Staff is lazy and I took 2 vehicles here and they both came out with bugs still all over and they didn't wash grill area or rims. I was getting what was supposed to be a $120 service. This place is grubby and staff looks like they want nothing to do with washng vehicles or doing a good job. I will NEVER go here again! | 0 |
I love it! Every time we come here, we are greeted by the friendly staff and owners Julie and Jonny. The fish is very fresh and always get the specials. You can even take a live crab home! When they have them. Beware though she may be pregnant! Salmon and lemon just explodes with freshness. The tuna so clean and the screaming 'o' is so worth it. The dressing on a salad?! Ginger and yes it's amazing. \n\n I am tired of the All you can eat places and I have found my friends and my favorite sushi place in the Vegas area.\n\n Momo makes your food with love and rice. Enjoy! | 1 |
It was real PIMP went i walked into the room and the curtains opened. We had a nice view of the Palms and 15 freeway (not being sarcastic). Doesn't take much to impress me. The center panel by the bed pretty much controlled the whole room. \n\nRight when we walked out of the elevator to gamble, there was this lounge area with a pianist taking request (make sure you tip). As a joke i asked the pianst to play \""My heart will go on\"" by Celine Dion.\nAnd the pianst actually played it haha.\n\nEverything you need is at the ARIA. They got a club, a lounge area etc. \n\nI would definately like to stay here again but with a bigger room. Maybe some kind of a presidential suite when i can afford it. | 1 |
Really bad. 1 star food at a 5 star price. Definitely avoid eating here. I had lobster and it was so overdone but yet it was priced as if it were fresh from the dock. Service was week. They had a huge group come in and it got so out of control. These girls acted as if they were in a pizza parlor, doing cheers and screaming and management never tried to step in. Bad food, bad service, bad ambiance. Just bad overall. At least I did not get food poison so that's a plus! | 0 |
Naaaw! Overpriced for a bland buffet with stale desserts in a crappy area of Vegas. Simply not enough (or any at all) special dishes that stand out... I mean, c'mon, fried chicken? I admit I was satisfied with the 'Texas-style Barbecued Beans' and the 'Seafood Stew', but that just wasn't enough to make me bring up this buffet as a topic of conversation at the water-cooler the next day (except maybe to say that it sucked). Definitely not the worst of the dozens of buffets I've been to, but probably in the bottom 5. | 0 |
It seems that Phoenix has a lot of restaurants that have \""Chicago style\"" pizza or hotdogs and usually I am not too impressed. That would be the case here as well. I had the regular hot dog, fries (not a very generous amount) and a medium coke and it cost over $6.00. The hot dog was alright -I think I have had better hot dogs at Wienerschnitzl though. And it really wasn't the greatest value either. \n\nThe two drug addicts, who had been in front of me in line, seemed to enjoy their food as everyone in the restaurant got to hear them making assorted noises as they ate. And it was so pleasant to leave the restaurant to see a homeless guy sitting by my car. Needless to say, I am not going back. | 0 |
I used to really like this restaurant located in a strip mall across from UNLV. It's a cute small hole in the wall with some sort of ambiance (tables & booth seating). My husband liked it and we even ate here with my family and friends. The service was excellent. The portions were good. The pricing was good. One lady was doing prep work (vegetables) at one of the dining tables, which was kind of weird. Don't get me wrong, the food was excellent. However, when we saw bugs the last time, we got a little turned off. | 0 |
what size portion can a real human actually eat without exploding? i was about to find out. \nthe food here (breakfast food anyway) was absolutely divine! i had the french toast with eggs and potatoes and will all my will, was able to finish it. my gal had a mango coconut pancake and it was bigger than her head. i had to help her finish it (what can i say, it was a severely gluttinous weekend). \nour service was prompt despite there was a 40 minute wait (we were seated in 10, so don't let that stop you). the coffee was deliciously strong. our waitress was perfect...not overbearing, not absent....just the right amount of both. \n\nour travel mate got something with eggs and chicken and hollandaise. it looked terrible to me, but she said it was fantastic. couldn't finish it. \n\nand the bloody marys are just as large and just as delicious. this place rocks! very cheap for the amount of food you get. | 1 |
Came for lunch with Elnino F. and Angela H. I'm down for healthy eating so I've been curious to give this spot a try. \n\nI ordered the Chicken Hummus Wrappini ($9.99) with the vegan \""chicken\"" (I was curious!) and regular mozzarella cheese. It also had lettuce and tomato in a chipotle tortilla. The \""chicken\"" and hummus part was decent, however there was a huge amount of lettuce in there in comparison to chicken, hummus or cheese and for $10, I was hoping I could get at least a even spread of topping and not get a bunch of cheap filler iceburg lettuce. At least pour on the hummus for some nice flavor in it but it was sparse and not evenly spread. After I ate the spot with the hummus it was bland and dry....It was frustrating to get a bite of promise of something good and then bite into bleak nothingness. It comes with a side and I chose salad. What I found odd was that my lettuce didn't look dressed so I moved it around and saw a few leaves were, but not enough to say it was \""dressed\"". It's like they dressed one salad for someone, had a few left and poured it onto my plate and then forgot to dress up another batch and just threw it on my plate. I got vinaigrette after asking but sparse dressing, sparse hummus- is this supposed to make it uber healthy to not add so much sauce or are they just sauce nazis? Give me flavor! No flavor is unhealthy to my state of being! \n\nI traded a half wrap with Elnino and since his buffalo wrap came with a side sauce, it was better since I can pour on some flavor. \n\nI heard though desserts were shining. I know Red Velvet is the namesake, but since Elnino got that, I decided to get a comfort favorite of mine- chocolate chip banana bread pudding ($6.50). I was really curious how this was gonna be moist and tasty without the milk aspect of most puddings. At first it kinda tasted like it had some rum in it which was odd, but it was doable. Then I got to a banana chunk and stopped eating- the rummy flavor was made because the banana had gone bad and fermented my cake. \n\nElninos warm red velvet was surprisingly good and the service was fairly nice and kept with the ice tea, but I left disappointed. I had a bit of a hope a good spot for veggies exist and after thinking about it this weekend and thinking of all the glowing things people have said to me, I'm rather upset to have paid $24 for that. That can get 2 delicious vegan entrees at my favorite Thai spot around town. \n\nI'm far from being a vegetarian but I know good flavorful food and this didn't make me want more. I'm from LA and I loved the vegetarian fare at a lot of the vegan spots about town. I loved it that I was a regular at Real Food Daily because it was creative and tasty. I was hoping and wishing that RVC be my no brainer healthy meal spot but not even sure I want to go back- ever.\n\nI can't give it more than a 2 when taste and value isn't present and makes me wonder how long they let pastries sit around if bananas were allowed to go rank. \n\nMaybe if you're vegan and don't have much food choices then this place would be okay to go to but I think you're better off going to a vegan friendly Asian place or getting sandwiches from Whole Foods. | 0 |
This is the second time that we've stayed at the Trump. It's been a few years but I have to say that my second time will be the last time. \n\nUpon arrival, we got into our room quickly. As we settled in, we turned the TV on. Or tried....it didn't work. We called downstairs and within 10 minutes, maintenance came up. It was a quick fix with a circuit breaker issue and he was on his way. \n\nWe then went downstairs for a drink in the lounge. When we got back upstairs, we then saw that the garbage can near the desk had not been emptied. There were dirty q-tips on the floor near the garbage can, and it was filled with empty coffee creamer, orange seeds, etc. After inspecting the rest of the room, I realized that the bathroom tub wasn't all that clean. Not feeling all that confident that the room had been thoroughly cleaned, I called down and asked for a room switch. \n\nI was told that they would send somebody up with new room keys and escort us to our new room. That took about 25 minutes. Now we were on a time crunch to get showered and ready for dinner. \n\nUpon entering the new room, my husband tried the TV. Guess what? It didn't work! Surprise, surprise. At this point, we had to leave for dinner so we called down to let them know that the second room's TV didn't work either. \n\nIn a rush to make our reservation, we left the room and realized we forgot something, so we ran back to the room. The new keys didn't work! \n\nSigh....we decided to wait until we got home later that evening to deal with it. \n\nLater we got back to the hotel and talked with the front desk. We explained our situation and politely expressed our annoyances with what had happened since check-in. The person working the desk said he needed to check on something for us. When he came back, he told us that he \""wanted us to go and settle in our room and enjoy yourselves\"" and that he would be \""sending a bottle of champagne up to the room for you.\"" But he kept repeating that he wanted us to \""enjoy ourselves\"", which was a little creepy to me. \n\nIt was 2:30 am by the time we got to the room and I was ready to go to bed. We waited and waited and finally I fell asleep. About 40 minutes later, the bottle of champagne was brought up to our room. \n\nAs the weekend progressed, there were more things that were disappointing. The second TV in the bathroom never worked, there was a light out in the bathroom and the toilet barely flushed. However, we just let it go because we thought we'd just get another bottle of champagne...whoo-hoo! I'm not even a champagne drinker, so that \""reward\"" meant nothing for the inconvenience. \n\nWe've stayed at several wonderful 5 star hotels in Vegas....the Wynn, Mandarin Oriental, Cosmopolitan...and the Trump has a long way to go if it wants to be compared to these hotels! \n\nAside from the decent bed/pillows, there wasn't much that excited me about this time at the Trump. I think we'll pass next time. | 0 |
I believe the place is terrible and very Dirty they don't even Have enough money to get there own Food they go to Smiths to buy it LOL \nWhat a place,.,.,. Don't go there it sucks,.,. Plain and Simple | 0 |
I love this place, been going since I was a kid. \nThey are still open though, open for lunch till April 12th. | 1 |
Nice decor, great service, great food. If I was the seafood eatin sort I'd probably fall in love with this place, but since I'm not, I'll just have to really enjoy my visits. The non-seafood dish I got (Malaysian Curry Chicken Obento box) was top notch.\n\nThe only \""notch down\"" was the price of the food which puts it at the upper end of where I want for a lunch place (they're in Piedmont Town Center where I work).\n\nDid I already say the staff is super nice? Yeah, good. | 1 |
I absolutely LOVE betos\n\nWhen i first moved to Pittsburgh i actually hated it and refused to get the pizza, so i would just stick with the Italian Hoagie..... Yummmm it is probably the best hoagie in the burgh, no jokes.\n\nThe pizza i grew to, and i assume that some people have to do the same. But boy did i grow to it fast once i did. I remember one day just trying a slice and was in love with it. I think it has to be the sauce, it is so so so so sweet and just abosultely amazing. The cheese is also amazing because it makes the hot cold sensation just that much better. I always get 2 slices, 1 mushroom 1 plain and an italian hoagie with lettuce pickles mayo \n\nI truely cant wait to get back to the burgh to have some betos\n\nA down side to betos is it gets pricey if you eat alot. But hey if thats what good pizza costs then so be it, im happy with it | 1 |
Wow. It's not often I give a place less than three stars unless I had a real bad experience there, like shit service, huge wait or a cockroach in the pudding. In this case, I'll make a unique exception because I encountered none of those. Confused? Read on.\n\nThe wife went here last night and grabbed dinner on the way to meet me and the kid. It's. Just. Chicken. Strips. HOW can you make any sort of chain restaurant based on that? It's bland and literally the most boring meal I've ever had. Just one (SMALL) step up from a glass of water in flavor. Let's break it down: tasteless chicken with breading that makes even Church's, arguably the blandest food in the state, taste passable; shoestring crinkle-cut fries - like Del Taco's but half as thick (why?!); boring coleslaw; boring sauce. Probably the tastiest thing in the box was the soft buttered toast, but hell if I can't make that myself at home, right? It's just so absolutely pointless to go to this place. Go ANYwhere else. Mexican, burger, whatever. I'd rather eat airline food, seriously. I felt like I needed to dip the damn chicken in sulfuric acid in the desperate hope that that could revive my clinically dead tastebuds five minutes into the meal. And chicken strips are ALL they had on the menu, with the sides as mentioned above! I was still vaguely hungry but quit eating my Caniac with half the meal to go, it was THAT un-special. Chick Fil-A is a dozen orders of magnitude better than this place. At least ~they~ have some sort of flavour. Making different kinds of breading available and giving the option for dark (== flavour) meat chicken would go a long way towards getting this place an extra star. Making three, in case you aren't counting. I appreciated the high-rating reviews I read prior to going here - additional reviews from those reviewers will help me profile restaurants I will NEVER eat at and save me a crapload of angst and cash in the future. But take your kids here. They'll love it. It's why I gave it one more star than I was planning to.\n\nAbout a pound of half-eaten meal went into the trash last night. Won't ever happen again. Wife, it wasn't your fault, it was mine. And Yelp's. (presses period key on keyboard at the end of that sentence so hard that the plastic splits) | 0 |
The food is not that great. The menu is not that great. The atmosphere is not that great. The service is slow when it is busy. The waitresses could be hotter. | 0 |
The food here is amazing the decorations are great. I can on a Sunday so it was packed beyond belief the room was loud but the wait went fast. This is a great place to go but if your looking to chat it is hard. | 1 |
So far the BEST steak house I have been to in LV. Went this past weekend and have already made my reservations for my next trip in 2 weeks. \n\nSince everyone in my group was getting steaks, I decided to mooch off of them and indulge my self in other pleasantries. So I got the West Coast Kushi oysters - similar to Kumamotos - my fav. I also got the bone marrow - nothing spectacular - a bit plain actually, just the marrow and some toast. I like it when marrow is spruced up a bit with capers and greens. So I wont be ordering this again from here. I also wanted to get the Fois Grois but the waiter suggested the Pate. It was good, but wish I had gone with my previous choice. The Pate - since i was eating it by myself - was a bit too heavy for only one to consume, especially when paired with the rich taste of the marrow - my bad overall, I should have considered it. \n\nMy friend's Filet was AMAZING the most beautiful piece of meet you've ever seen. I will probably be getting that on ym next trip. My boyfriend's aged rib eye - rare - was succulent . My other friend got his rib eye med rare and it wa s bit too dry. We enjoyed a nice Syrah - $80, the lesser end of the list, but still lovely. \n\nThe scalloped potatoes were awesome, as was the jalapeno cream corn. The Sides there are a MUST - get as many as your stomach can handle! AND you may not think you have room for desert but share the coconut passion fruit sorbet plate with your table - you'll be glad you did. The tangy fruitiness is an excellent way to end the heaviness of the meal - along with a double espresso, of course, to kick you out of the coma. | 1 |
I'm giving this two stars not because I actually tasted the food but because it looked good enough for me to actually come back and try it, which I did NOT get to do on my first visit. Why not? Crappy service. Could not get waitstaff to make eye contact. Waited half an hour and while all the tables around us were getting served (even people that walked in way after us) we were still waiting. Had to leave because I couldn't have enjoyed the food even if it was the best ever. That being said, I'm sure their dumplings are good, just based on what I saw. Be prepared for rude inattentive service and a long wait and you'll probably enjoy it, if you can deal with that sort of thing. | 0 |
I frequently stay at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas and often end up eating at Central since it is conveniently located near the lobby, close to the Augustus tower and open 24 hours. I am torn between giving this place 1 and 2 stars. Given my recent experiences I will give it 2 stars max. They had a tuna burger on the menu which was delicious and we really liked it and actually had it twice during one stay, only to learn that the quality can be choppy. We had it for lunch right before we left for the airport to catch a flight. By the time we got to the car rental facility, we could feel it in the stomach. Five minutes later we were sprinting towards the rental car shuttle, hoping to make it to the United Club and unload. As soon as we made it to the Club, we ran to the restroom - explosive diarrhea - the fish was on its way back to the sea within an hour on consumption. Both of us had the tuna burger was lunch and both of us had to run to the loo. Outside of this experience, we frequently have breakfast here - it tends to be expensive - pretty standard breakfast for two with coffee and OJ can run you north of $50. | 0 |
I know options are limited at the PHX airport but these servers are the worst and shouldn't have the luxury of a job. They are rude, the food is way below average and expensive for what you get. | 0 |
Found this on Yelp. There is a disconnect between the exterior and interior design, but that is to be expected off the strip. The interior is chabby chic and extremely cute! It was surprisingly empty on a Friday night. They have areas for more intimate private parties as well. We had a great waiter, attentive and friendly. The food was pretty good. My friends had a veggie sandwich and a shrimp poboy. They loved it. The spinach crab dip was pretty good & the gnocchi was awesome!! The only disappointment was the clam chowder, it was just ok..nothing great. | 1 |
7 bucks for beer on tap! I thought I came here for a happy hour at around 4 (no judgements.... I was with my boss), and we discovered that happy hour didn't start until 4:30. The bartender (who wasn't even very nice or chatty while we were pretty much the only people there) wouldn't even consider giving us the happy hour special and the bill was 14 bucks for 2 beers. I will probably not stop in again any time soon... | 0 |
Went to Yummy Tori for lunch & wasn't disappointed- service was good, food was nice (especially the miso soup). The menu hasn't got a great deal of choice for the small plates, if you're a vegetarian for example, you'll probably struggle to find much. Most dishes were izakaya type food, I had okonomiyaki, takoyaki, Gyoza & miso soup. They do a version of onigiri on a stick which I didn't try. They were making up bento boxes for takeaway lunches which I thought was really handy- a healthy takeaway lunch. I'd go again, it wasn't too pricey for a Japanese food fix! | 1 |
Food wasn't that good. Server was kind. Leonard, one of the owners was not friendly at all. We ordered before 6pm for the happy hour special and they charged us full price and said we ordered after 6 and wouldn't give us the happy hour prices. The ticket showed 6:38pm, well after our order. I wouldn't recommend this place. | 0 |
I've been a fan of Capriottis since my first encounter with the 'Bobbie' at a catered work function. I have since grown to love the 'Capastrami.' It is an amazing sandwhich creation made with pastrami and cole slaw. The 'Bobbie' has turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce and mayo. I haven't had a bad sandwhich from this place, or any other Capriotti's in town. THe cheesesteaks are above par as well. The only issues I have with this chain are the lack of drink varieties and the price. I'm not saying it's not worth the price because inch for inch you're paying for quality meats and condiments. I just think that I would probably eat there more often if it didn't cost me $45 to feed my family of four. | 1 |
We went there tonight and it was very crowded. I know that we all are excited to have a unique restaurant in the area but our service was also terrible. There were 2 adults and two young children in our party which makes slow service seem even slower. The waiter forgot to put in our order then admitted he had lost it. I explained after watching people seated after us already eating that my kids would take ANYTHING. It still took a while. Then one appetizer came out a while later they brought one pizza to our table and attempted to give us one that we didn't order. At that point we asked for more silverware and plates. The next pizza came but no plates or silverware. Finally the bruschetta appetizer came. We asked again for plates and silverware. After our third request to three different people someone brought us plates but only after we were almost done eating. The server then came to us and explained they had comped the bruschetta as well as discounting our whole bill and apologized. We asked for a box at that point and thank goodness we had cash because he never came back. I would think that if you knew your service was that terrible you would be keeping very close track of your table. \n\nI think the place is new, pretty small and very crowded. Obviously the management doesn't have the staff they need. The food was very good and we will try it again especially since it is biking distance from our house but not for a few more months.... | 0 |
LOVE LOVE LOVE. Beyond helpful to someone moving across the country. We can not recommend this facility highly enough. | 1 |
I ate so much here, I seriously thought I gained 5lbs walking out of there! It was great! I wasn't a fan of waiting in line, but our friend who had a card, got us out of line and we were in a lot faster. I was rather upset to see the people who were behind us in line, were still waiting in line a half hour later.\n\nBut the food was plentiful and the crab legs were so good! I kept going back to that! I had cravings for all types of food and this buffet pleased every single craving and taste bud I had. This was definitely a cure to my hangover! | 1 |
This parking structure is the worst in Las Vegas. Sitting in the same place for 30 minutes is ridiculous. They need to get help when big events are going on. | 0 |
We had problems with the Tropicana since before even arriving and checking in at the hotel. I booked a renovated suite months in advance, luckily I called a few days before checking in to add a name to the reservation- my reservation was still in the computer system, however it was \""canceled\"". How could my reservation be canceled when I am receiving biweekly confirmation emails since April? \nAs an apology for the 'glitch' I was promised the exact same reservation for the same price I booked the room for. \nSo, come check in day my girl-fiend arrives a few hours before the rest of us and they made her pay for the entire 4 night stay, in full, in advance. When I called to ask why they couldn't just use the card they had on file for the deposit I was told that I should have known that whoever checks in first had to pay up front (BTW, no one else we talked to that weekend were required to do so- guess we just look sketchy?). \nAfter checking in my friend had to walk through the construction zone they are calling a resort to arrive at a room that was not only unrenovated, but also one that sells for a much lower rate then what she JUST paid in full. \nAfter a long and painful conversation with the lady at the front desk, my husband managed to get them to \""find\"" the last available suite and have it held for us. We were actually told that our friend had better hurry and go down to the desk to check into the correct suite so that someone else didn't check into it. Sounds like terrific customer service to me! We arrived at the hotel as my friend calls me to let me know that they did move her.. to a DIRTY renovated suite! \nAt this point the concierge, Richard (who was actually very nice) came up the room and personally apologized for all the mix ups and comped the last night of our stay. I personally thought we should have been offered a bit more then that- but hey, things were looking up. \nThe next day we checked in at our cabana and while it is not the most lavish experience, it was certainly worth the $150 bucks (iced towels, free sodas/water, a decent fruit tray, and a very nice lady named Rachael that took care of anything we needed), but of course the day could not go without at least one hassle. Because they made us pay for our room upfront we were completely unable to charge anything to the room including our cabana. \nThe next day we had reserved chairs (we were told that it was limited to 5) on the pool island, which was very nice with all the same amenities as the cabana rental, however as soon as we were relaxing and enjoying ourselves a group 3-5 adults and 3 children were allowed to move our stuff out of the way and take over the island. \nWe couldn't easily get to our things, they let their kids wet our bags, and we ended up being the monkey in the middle in their game of catch. When we, rightfully, complained we were told that they were friends of the management. \nWe stayed at the Tropicana to save a little dough, but it was most definitely no inexpensive enough to be treated so poorly. In the end we still had an enjoyable Vegas trip, but it was in no part thanks to the Tropicana. The only people I recommend staying there are people who are close personal friends with the lower management, because it seems that they can do what ever they want. | 0 |
went on sunday around 11am isn with friends from seattle sat outside nice outdoor area my only complaint was music was to LOUD!!!! a little hard to have a conversation. service was delightful and friendly and all the dishes we ordered were tasty | 1 |
People love my fast food reviews, so here is another at a fairly new establishment in the far reaches of the valley. I'm not sure that at $3.19 for a single burger, we can call it fast food, but it has a drive through, so it qualifies. My only purchase was the single steakburger on what seemed to be a very buttered bun. The patty was thinner than a wafer and was hand formed and a tad on the greasy side and not really comparable to any other fast food burger. It falls below In and Out, when they are having a good day and basically in its own category. Nothing wrong with this place on occasion and the burger is dressed with a few slices of onion and sliced pickles.\n\nUPDATE: Grilled Chicken Sandwich belongs in nastyville. Avoid at all costs. | 0 |
This place totally intrigued me when I first saw it. I asked about microbrewery prices and the waitress told me to come after midnight for $2 pints. $2 pints of microbrew??? AWESOME!\n\nThe IPA was pretty good, but the Porter was awesome. It was a definite coffee porter, and pulled it off very well. Also loved the garlic fries... But don't let the \""legendary\"" fool you... Just normal garlic fries. | 1 |
This library has a good selection of books, esp newer ones. I usually don't have to wait long for new popular ones to hit the shelves. I like being able to use their website to have books reserved for me so all I have to do is pop in, grab them and I'm out the door in less than a minute. Their website is user friendly and they send you emails to remind you of due dates - very nice for a forgetful mind! | 1 |
Incredibly poor experience! I had two simple dishes, that were executed very poorly. The clam chowder, was under seasoned, and a complete puddle of mush. It was truly disappointed; due to reading great reviews about it i had perviously looked forward to it. Then the oysters Rockefeller, not only under seasoned as well but completely flavorless. The bar top server could careless about his job, never asked how the meal was. And passed up cashing my tab out 7 times; as he walked by staring at my credit card each time. But the real disappointment was the food. So bad that I decided to order my entree elsewhere. The total experience was enough to leave the casino entirely. Save your self the disappointment and money; you will find better food at a soup kitchen. | 0 |
We just moved to Fort Mill from Texas and this was the first restaurant we tried. The food was great and service was attentive and friendly...the noise level was frustrating. The restaurant is really cute but small and so loud. I'd still go back, just wish you could talk and relax since it's such a great place otherwise.\n\nMy daughter and I had the chicken and waffles-delicious!! My husband had the pulled pork sandwich and said it was really good. | 1 |
We were going to try Olive's last night but found they have gone out of business. | 0 |
There once was a businessman who walked into a restaurant and asked \""Do you serve crabs here?\"" The waitress replied \"" We serve anyone!\""\n\nOK, bad joke, but I needed an intro to catch your attention!\n\nMy wife and I have dined at the original Joe's in Miami for dinner, so while in Vegas we decided to try their lunch. For the money, you get a better value during lunch. For $26 you can chose the \""classic lunch\"" including 5 medium sized claws, Joe's homemade slaw, mountain of hash browns, and key lime pie for dessert. | 1 |
I went there the other night. Nobody wanna help. Even when I finally got somebody to help, he did not no anything and gave me wrong answers. Finally, I wanted to buy a wide format printer, they did not have any in the stock. They kept saying we will have shipped to your address. Hint if I wanted it shipped I wouldn't have been here. I will never go back again. | 0 |
I work right next door to here and always have the yummy smell of coffee pouring into my office. So I finally went in great customer service, clean, cool, good music.\n\nI got a pumpkin latte (small) for only 99 cents!!!! It was super yummy !!!\n\nMy bagel was ok but still filled me up. \n\nI'll def. go back | 1 |
Dinner of Christmas Day was great - attentive service without being stuffy, delicious food, and great atmosphere. | 1 |
4.5 stars... \n\nPleasant, pleasant, pleasant...Everytime we walked back in from the Venetian and outside it was like a gasp of fresh peaceful air. It is very tasteful and serene. I think a bit too simple for a 5 diamond rating, but still very very nice. \n\nCheck in on a Friday was soo fast, professional and easy. Highly impressed. \n\nThe room was probably one of the nicest I have ever stayed in. The space and decor were stunning and understated. I felt it was lacking in bathroom amenities. \n\nParking garage was soooo easy and convenient, never experienced that before in Vegas. \n\nCasino was small, but a very nice environment, we played and were able to make some money. The layout is nice, not claustrophobic or smokey. \n\nI really enjoyed the overall restaurant selection too, good variety, nothing hideous. We practically never needed to leave. We saw David Spade in their theater, which was a great theater. All in one place- made it super relaxing. \n\nWe were actually shocked to find out what a happening place it was, I thought it would be stuffier like bellagio. For the most part there were well dressed 20's and 30's partying! Super fun, young vibe, in a tasteful way. \n\nWould stay again, try Aria before that... \n\nLoved it, it just didn't have some of the gimmicky all out pizazz that I look forward to in Vegas... | 1 |
I finally got a straight answer...they double booked us and with 23 days to go, I had to wait for another bride to sign a contract to move her wedding to the pool area (in July???). So finally I had enough and canceled. Now the Artisan is refusing to refund my deposit since I'm the one that canceled even though THEY made all the mistakes! BTW, for anyone raving about the restaurant/bar, you should probably google the Artisan on the web and you'll quickly find out just how many health code violations they've had. They've been written up for everything from moldy ice to bugs crawling around the bar...perhaps that is why they keep it so dark? | 0 |
Yuck\nIn a word \""Yuck\"" . All items taste like they were cooked in old oil. Never again. We will be going back to Asian Grill. | 0 |
My ABSOLUTELY favorite place to eat in Scottsdale, hands down. The Rueben sandwich is exquisite and piled high with meat. The menu has cute names and is very descriptive. The food is fresh and of the highest quality. The service is very good and the server is friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and very charming.\n\nMy next stop in Arizona won't be complete food-wise without a trip to Cowboy Ciao! | 1 |
Yaaay! I'm always excited when I get to write a one-star review! Trust me, it is NOT often that I write a one-star, you have to be truly horrendous to get a one-star from me. Well, truly horrendous is the perfect description for Emperor's Garden. \n\nFirstly, I didn't pick the place, my traveling book club met there. Being Asian, I tried to be open-minded about it, as none of my Asian Yelpie friends seem to dig this place. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in to see it wasn't Americanized at all, actually it's smack in the middle of Chinatown, and the place is just as run-down and stinky as the rest of it (this is not an insult)!\n\nThe place was packed with Chinese people, a tour company had taken over the place for dinner. Why would Chinese people from China would want to eat here? I have no idea. Maybe the horrendous service reminded them of home? \n\nThe food was mediocre to bad. The highlight of the night was the eggplant, it was decent. I got the combination fried rice, which was bland and simple, cooked more in the true Taiwanese style than the American style. I tried the Seafood Lo Mein, which was decent, again bland, as authentic lo mein is, but not enough seafood. Nothing about the food wowed me, 3-stars at best. \n\nThe one-star is because of the horrible service. The place has a full bar and someone in my party mentioned that house wine was $2 a glass. What a deal! She had even mentioned it to the waiter, specifically asking if the glass was $2, and he mumbled something like, \""yes, we have it, but it's $3.\"" The other lady at my table said, \""I would like the $5 glass of wine, NOT the house wine.\"" Soooo... the wine comes, and just for fun, everyone tried the $2 wine (I swear it was the two-buck chuck they sell at Trader Joe's) then we tried the $5 wine. IT WAS EXACTLY THE SAME! But we laughed it off. We were having fun and the lady didn't seem to mind paying the extra $2.\n\nThe bad service came when we got the bill. They charged everyone $5 for a glass of wine. When we complained, the OWNER said that's the price and we have to pay. WTF??? We even pulled up the website to show that the house wine was $2 and we specifically asked when we ordered. The OWNER said that it wasn't her website and she would not honor the price. LOL. Well, the address was the same? The name of the restaurant was the same? I guess someone with a huge vendetta against this place took it upon themselves to make a fake website and sell glasses of wine for $2. HAHAHA. What a bunch of bullcr@p. And the OWNER was getting nasty about it, she was so upset we weren't going to pay the extra $2! Her restaurant was packed, we just rang up a $200 bill and she was upset over the $2! \n\nSo we did what every vindictive 'Murican does, we took it out of the tip. LOL. Duuuuh... The OWNER then had the audacity to tell us if we come back, we can have a free dessert. Uh... no. \n\nThey also padded our bill with things we didn't order, like bowls of rice and something else.... but they promptly took it off. \n\nOverall.... just a miserable experience in a stinky rundown place. Will not come back. | 0 |
Ya know - I could see this place being very inconsistent and I was there on a ho hum day. The wine recommended was their chianti which tasted pretty bad, they have a weird assortment of imported beers, and like a couple other reviews the pizza had little flavor. We order a PESTO chicken pizza and we had to bite around on each piece to find the pesto, no flavor, a bit dry and the pizza was really late and warm - late and warm which means = sat there for a while. Our waitress was nice, cute, fun but hey that only gets you 2 stars. The salad was better than the pizza and the wings were pretty good. - Thats all folks.!! | 0 |
I absolutely LOVE this place! I've been a member of Gold's, 24 Hour and LVAC in the past and this is by far the creme de la creme! \n\nIndoor and outdoor pools, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, indoor basketball/volleyball court, indoor track, a full service bar, spa, sauna, the works! The machines are the best of the best and very well kept. My muscles are doing things they've never done before in the past. Gotta love it!\n\nThe staff is the best and what I like the most is that no matter when I come, it's never crowded, so getting on the machines I love is never an issue.\n\nThe monthly fee is way higher than my past gyms but you get what you pay for and boy am I loving what I am paying for! Love the fact that it smells like a spa in this place and not a sweaty, old gym. \n\nLVAC definitely spoiled me when I came to them from 24 Hour, and when I left LVAC due to moving and wanting something close to home, thus returning to 24 Hour, I was extremely disappointed and needless to say, spoiled at what a gym should look like. Club Sport has definitely taken my spoiling to another level. I cannot see myself working out any place else. I will be a member for quite a long time. A splurge definitely worth every penny! | 1 |
Luckily we got in here for free otherwise I'd be reaaally disappointed. \n\nThe staff is super nice and friendly but the music is... horrendous. Granted, we only went for the last hour but, from my experience, the last hour is usually the best. I was expecting Top 40/Hip Hop and it was all House music. I like basshunter, Benni Benasi and all that, but this was all beat, no lyrics. It got old after about ten minutes. So sad. | 0 |
Customer Service FAIL: I called ahead EXPLICITLY to request 2 queen bed. When I arrived, I was told that was not possible with no more availability, and I should've called ahead.\n\nRenovation FAIL: The bathroom that we had has no tub, but an open Euro / Gym style shower area, which is fine. Only if that area is not built higher than the rest of the bathroom floor. Every time we shower, we get an instant flood in the bathroom. | 0 |
Food was OK ...service was horrible! My fianc\u00e9 and I went in and the server forgot about us. Then a nice young lady came and took care of us but once the food was out she didn't come and check on us until we were about done. I've heard so many good things about this place but it was my first time here and I was dissapointed. | 0 |
My wife scheduled our trikke tour and i agreed mostly because I wanted to visit the new container park. I can't even explain how much fun we had on the hour long tour. We want to go again asap and we feel like we made life long friends with the owners. Also learning about all the cool things going on downtown was super interesting. I highly recommend this tour. | 1 |
Oh my gosh, the curries here are AMAZING.\nI have tried the mango, squash, and yellow curry.\nAnd I definitely recommend the mango and the squash curry.\n\nI have only been here for lunch, so I cannot speak for those who had bad experiences during their dinner time.\nI do have to agree that their service is slow, but most of the staff is quite nice. | 1 |
My first visit about two weeks after the opening was amazing. My second visit, not so much. \n\nThis restaurant has become very popular, and there is often a long line of people waiting to be seated. We arrived at off-peak time on a Sunday afternoon, so the wait was only about 5 to 10 minutes. The restaurant was nevertheless packed inside and on the loud side. I could be mistaken, but there seemed to be more tables in the dining area than before. In any event, if you are not seated in a booth, you will be pretty close to the adjacent tables. \n\nThe service during my first visit rivaled fine dining. This time, the service was slow, infrequent, and unpolished. It took too long for our server to make her appearance after we were seated. She was soft spoken, so it was hard to hear her over the din of the crowded restaurant. When I asked her what beers they have on tap, she appeared to me to be annoyed by my question and placed an iPad in front of me to peruse. She took our order very mater of factly and was on her way. \n\nIt must have taken 15 minutes for my beer to arrive, and that was about 10 minutes after my buddy's diet coke was delivered by a staffer who informed us the beer he didn't bring would be coming \""soon.\"" Some other guy eventually brought the beer. \n\nIt took a good while longer for the food to come out. I ordered my burger medium, but the burger I was served was well done. I ate it without saying anything to avoid further annoyance to our server and because lord knows how long it would have taken to get a replacement. \n\nWe were staying at the Encore, so having lunch here wasn't exactly convenient. Based on my first experience, the place seemed worth going out of my way for. Based on my second visit, I might give it another chance, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do it. | 0 |
Went there for an early dinner today. I had a baja steak burrito and my daughter had steak nachos, along with two diet cokes. My burrito was ok. Megan's nachos were ok. Neither one was anything special. The salsa bar was a mess. They say there are no tomatoes, so all the salsa they had was the green stuff and something else that was black and didn't taste very good. There were no limes in the salsa bar, and I love limes, so told them. I was almost done with my meal by the time they finally got them out. Garbage was completely full, almost spilled stuff on the ground when I was trying to put my stuff away. Tables were a mess. But the employees had time to play grabass in the back. I had a groupon, so got a good deal. I won't be going back. I like Fili Bs much better. | 0 |
This was my girlfriend's first trip to Vegas, and we did extensive research into the hotels, nightclubs and restaurants. So many nightclub reviews compared their club to XS, that we figured XS had to be one of the places to check out. We went on a Friday night.\n\nWe ended up eating at Wynn, so we were already there. Got in line early, around 10ish. First, they pulled us off the main line to let us get in express - she looked fantastic and while I always thing I just look like a baboon with a suit on, she told me it was partially because of me, too. So, first piece of advice, dress to the nines.\n\nThe first problem though is after we got pulled off, we were told my girlfriend could get in for free, but I had to pay. No problem with that, so we get out of the express line to go to the girls in for free line, but then we were told (after we already got out of line) the girls getting in for free have to go in through separate entrances - meaning I would have had to leave her alone for god knows how long while I waited in line. Why in the world would you do that Wynn? What would be wrong with either letter her in without paying in the main line, or letting me go with her and I'll just pay? We thought that was really messed up, and rather then get separated, she decided she'd just pay the cover. Thankfully, one of the security people let us right back to the front of the cover charge line and we got in fairly quickly.\n\nI'll admit that if I was only reviewing our first 60-90 minutes, this place would get a 4 (and would have gotten a 5 if not for the issue above). It is beautiful. Dance floor is a bit small, but the club opens up to the pool outside, and it was a mid April evening and it was beautiful. I really liked it at first. The second problem though was once they started packing it in. Saying it was like sardines doesn't do it justice. Sardines are each given their own condos compared to how packed they filled this place. And while my girlfriend and I try to be respectful of all of the people jammed together, and just dance with short moves, the idiots in this place were still dancing as if they had the whole floor to themselves. I can't tell you how many people I had to shove off of us.\n\nLike you'll see in many reviews, I am sure if we had a VIP table, it would have been a different experience, but we didn't have the money to spend.\n\nLast problem was the music. It was all house. I know that's what people want, and that's fine, but I just don't get it. I go to clubs that mix in some house, but play heavy top 40, hip hop, etc, and everyone is dancing, singing along, and having a great time. Maybe I'm just getting too old (35), but I just hated the music here. Personal preference, I know, and most Vegas goers love it, but it wasn't for us.\n\nSo while I am happy we checked it out, I wouldn't go back. We left here and went to Act and had a MUCH better time, and the following night (Saturday) we went to Voodoo at the Rio and had a blast. Just don't see what the big deal is with XS. | 0 |
If I lived in Urbana again, this is where I would have coffee. I like the vibe if the place, the spaces are nice, bright, and thoughtfully laid out. The barista was a good dude, and poured me a nice coffee locally roasted. I didn't know there was a roaster here in town, so I jumped at the chance to try it and randomly the roaster happened to be standing next to me. We had a good conversation and now I'm sitting at a bar looking out into the street drawing and writing a review. \n\nThe coffee is pretty good, much better than id expected here for sure. They seem to pull their beans from Chicago and champaign so they're probably going to be decently fresh. The man behind the counter knew what he was doing with a pour over, so you're getting probably the best, freshest coffee you're gonna get here in town. \n\nStop in, support your local business, and enjoy some good coffee in a nice shop. | 1 |
Go to another location this one sucks and everybody that works here are rude as shit they don't have respect for people they must think there cops cause they have no respect . This place sucks go to another location that isn't so busy and I'm sure they will be much nicer then they are at this location! THEY SUCK !!!! HIRE A WHOLE KNEW STAFF | 0 |
Great experience! Super cute atmosphere, great food, fair prices, and awesome service! | 1 |
Do not go here unless you don't really care if your nails look nice. Very inconsistent, rushed jobs. Every single time I've gone, I've had some reason to not go back. Today I went again and again inconsistently bad overall services from everyone in that place. Find somewhere else to go so you won't leave there every time, disappointed and irritated...like I do. | 0 |
I am from the NYC area and miss good city Chinese food. This is as close as you can get to actual NYC style Chinese food. I highly recommend it. | 1 |
I purchased 73 items on 12/9/14 for a party I was going to have last night . I have the reciept. Unfortunatly I became ill and had to cancel the party. I did not even take any of the items out of the 99 cents store bags and they have been in my trunk. Today after work I went back to the same store with my reciept and my items to return. After going to 3 registers, the shift manager, Sarah Hines finally helped me. I handed her the reciept and told her I wished to return the items. She said that she cannot do that. I said, I bought them 2 days ago, they are in unopened original packaging and even in the bags they packed. She said she can only take back 9 items. I asked her to show me on the reciept, in the store, or at the register where it says that. She said that it doesnt, its just a policy they have in the office in the back. I told her that if its not posted anywhere in the store or on reciept, how would customers know that? She said she didnt know. I asked her to return the 9 items then and give me store credit for the rest and I would use it another time. She began counting the items and then said, ok go get your 50 something items. I said, no I dont need it now - I would like a store credit to use at a later time. She said she couldnt do that. I asked her to call her manager, she would not. I asked her to call corporate, she would not. People in line behind me were shocked and 2 actually walked out of the store saying that they didnt want to buy items if they couldnt return them if they didnt work either. She was yelling across 2 registers asking someone else to help her. People in the store were all staring. She was absolutely rude, unprofessional and a horrible employee. Not the way that 99 cent only would want to be represented. I asked her if I could return 9 items a day then and she said no you cant. I asked her what my options were and she said you can leave with your items. I asked her for corporates phone number and her name. She wrote down a number, her name Sarah Hines, and then \""manger\"". As a manager, she cant even spell her own title? I immediately called the number I was given and they said it was IT help desk for stores and not customer service. I was even more upset. They gave me the number for customer service which is closed. I have never been treated so rudely. There is no policy on my reciept that says that only 9 items can be returned. There is no sign in the store or on the registers. How can customers know of a policy if its not listed anywhere? Its not like I bought items 30 days ago and are just coming back now. It was 2 days! I received absolutely no customer service from her or anyone in the store whatsoever. I am livid right now. I shop in that store very often and have never experienced anything like this. If there is a return policy, it must be on the reciept or posted in the store. I would like someone at Corporate to contact me regarding this. There has to be a solution regarding my situation. The bags are still sitting in my car. I just want to return them. They are unopened, still wrapped in paper and in original bags. And I have my original reciept. Please contact me as soon as possible. | 0 |

I happened to get $50 in gift certificates at a lucky christmas party for the company this year so we decided to go on sat at 530 pm. It was very packed but we were seated promptly as we wanted to sit outside cause the weather was so nice! \n\nOur server was very knowledgeable pf the whole menu which in my opinion seems impossible lol. He was very patient and was great at refilling our drinks and getting us whatever we wanted. \n\nAs the food goes it was pretty expensive but overall worth the price. We ordered the following\n \n1) pretzel crusted chicken . A little sampler that was very moist and delicious and came with sauces to dip in YUM\n\n2) Deep fried cheese . Little triangles of deep fried mozzarella . They didnt skimp on the cheese inside :)\n\n3) Loaded bake potato soup. Enough said lol\n\n4) Dynamite shrimp . This one I didnt care for it was small shrimp with breading and a \""spicy\"" sauce which wasn't spicy at all and tasted like chipotle sauce\n\n5) spicy chicken chipotle pasta. Which again wasn't spicy but was good. Not Great. It sounded better on the description on menu. | 1 |
Best. Thai. EVER.\n\nThis small, neighborhood delight is unassuming at first glance. Make no mistake about it, those chefs in the kitchen you see upon first walking into Nicky's are hard at work, creating not only the best Thai food in Pittsburgh, but perhaps anywhere. The dining room is small but nice enough, but the real treat occurs when the weather is nicer and you move your dining experience to the patio. Beautiful foliage, babbling fountains, subtle twinkling lights, glass top tables with protective umbrellas...it's what I imagine dining in a secret garden would be like if Buddah was watching. And then, your food arrives.\n\nThe spring rolls are light, tasty, with just a hint of crunchy peanuts. They are served with an amazing sweet dipping sauce. The samosa are incredible, lightly fried, and in addition to the traditional fillings such as potatoes, peas and carrots, they have added a very welcome layer of...pumpkin. Any samosa I've had since trying these treasures has fallen way short. Now, I'm the kind of girl who orders Pad Thai pretty much everywhere I go. I can't seem to stop myself. Nicky's Pad Thai is in a whole different league. The plate that is presented to you is vibrant, fresh, the tofu is always perfectly cooked, beautifully sauced, and the portions are definitely enough to provide lunch the following day. After trying the Pad Thai, it took me probably 5 visits to Nicky's to finally branch out and try something else on their ample, tasty menu. Other standout dishes for me? Definitely the yellow curry, the spicy noodle dish (rice noodles, cabbage and a yummy spicy basil sauce), the kao soy (yellow curry remix with rice noodles, pickled cabbage, tofu. My new go-to dish). \n\nThere is another Nicky's location in Verona, and we have gotten take out from here on a few occasions. The menu is the same. The quality and consistency of the food, however, is not. It's decent Thai food, but certainly not what I've come to expect when I think of the extraordinary flavors of Nicky's.\n\nThis is a special, wonderful restaurant. The service I have had here has always been nothing short of stellar. I will continue to frequent here and hope that they continue to be successful. I just hope with all the new people that discover this North Side gem, there continues to be a table on the patio for me. | 1 |
Forgot my baby's meal, a member of my group order a jicama slaw and got red cabbage and onion. Half ass apology and paid for our fries. Other than that, tasty food, but not good enough. | 0 |
Extremely slow unprofessional and ghetto. Bad at cutting hair too go to the one at Decatur and 215 instead. | 0 |
Third update's the charm! My boyfriend and I came here again as we realized how close this place is to Wet N Wild! We wanted some substantial food that we knew we would like and this was the place the go.\n\nWe started off with an order of the fried pickles with all three dipping sauces. Sooo good for someone that likes pickles! If you don't like pickles, 1. you are a terrible person 2. don't get these.\n\nJust kidding! But seriously, don't get the pickle chips unless you like pickles.\n\nI ordered my normal veggie special but got rye bread because they were out of sourdough and substituted all American cheese for the swiss and provolone that it comes with. I was in heaven. I wish that the red peppers were cooked a little more but it was still delicious!\n\nMy boyfriend ordered the Peanut Butter Bacon Burger. He said it was a little overdone for a medium but the flavor was on point. It looked heavenly.\n\nOverall, great service like usual and amazing flavor! Love them! | 1 |
May 30.14 at Coyote's at 9:18 pm I was turned away . The hostesses said closed. So disappointed its Friday night in Vegas. WOW,, So Outback got my business. I was not the only one turned away. | 0 |
SMS, I enjoy your food, but is it so much to ask for some sort of \""hello/hi/hey/good evening/thanks/your welcome\"" from your delivery guy? | 0 |

Carlos' Kitchen is a true gem. If you are in the mood for bar food or some good American comfort food, Carlos has got the goods for you.\n\nEvery time we have visited, Chef Carlos comes out to talk to us explaining all the specials and all of the upcoming specials he'll be serving. It feels like you're visiting family - it s true home cooken.\n\nAll the burgers, fries, fish n chips are cooked to perfection. Chef Carlos is a master in putting together masterful sauce creations. We love the chicken angelo. All of the soups are prepared daily - i love the manahattan clam chowder. | 1 |
Wow... time flies when you're having fun. I just realized I haven't updated my review for U.S. Egg in over two years, so the below is long overdue. And just because I'm feeling creative today, here's a little something I wrote in honor of U.S. Egg:\n\nU - ultimate place to go for a delicious breakfast\nS - super friendly staff\n\nE - eggs, pancakes, waffles, and so much more!\nG - giant portions\nG - grateful... that's how I feel about having this place so close to home!\n\nI was reminded of how much I enjoy this place after our delightful breakfast this morning. There was a less than five minute wait to sit down, but the hostess brought me an OJ while I waited which made me very happy! Once seated, our waitress came over to help us navigate the menu... it had been awhile since our last visit. Per her recommendation, I went with a half order of the blueberry whole wheat pancakes and a side of egg whites. A half order is plenty for one person fyi - it comes with a pancake as big as your plate! It was delicious! J had coffee and a 2 egg breakfast with english muffin and hashbrowns. \n\nI love that they leave a pitcher of water and a carafe of coffee at your table... and fyi this place has plenty of lunch options as well. If you're looking for a casual place that is consistently good, head over to U.S. Egg... I have to remember to do so more often! | 1 |
Marquee is true to its name. This is the preeminent club in Las Vegas. I'd been to Pure at Caesar's and Mix at Mandalay Bay; yet, neither of them could hold a candle to Marquee at the Cosmopolitan.\n\nThe casino itself is eye candy. Walking past the stunning colored glass inside Cosmopolitan got me pumped up for what to expect at Marquee. On a Monday night around 9:30, I was there early for a private party before Industry Night kicked into full swing. \n\nA lot of Yelpers lamented about the price of drinks; hells bells, y'all, it's Vegas! What did you expect? Make a reservation for a table, order a bottle of Belvedere and just enjoy the ride! I was lucky enough to be here for a vendor event, so I never saw a tab, but can definitely say bottle service is the way to impress a lady.\n\nThat being said: show up to Marquee dressed to impress. You'll want to look your finest at this leading establishment. Gazing out over the balcony at the Sunset Strip in a cocktail dress and black suede pumps I felt ever-so-posh.\n\nAround 11 p.m. the club was starting to pack out and I made my way over to the elevators. I was alone in Vegas since this was an event for work, and one of the hosts asked me why a girl like me was out at night by myself. When I explained I was in town for a conference, he gave me his card and said if I needed anything while I was in town to give him a call.\n\nI was so impressed with the gentility (dare-I-say chivalry) of this kind host that I'll go ahead and give him a shout out: you are awesome Derrick! \n\nWhen I left Marquee the line was almost 1,000 people deep! I was in awe of my VIP treatment and am already looking forward to going back. Hopefully next time, I can enjoy Marquee to its fullest without having to get up and go to work the next day! | 1 |
I have previously been to the Sunshine Cafe and admire the small town feel and \""everybody knows your name\"" vibe I get when walking in. Our Friday morning \""Breakfast Club\"" chose Sunshine for this week's meeting of the minds in part so that I could continue my quest for the ultimate Chicken Fried Steak. I had reviewed the authorings of fellow Yelpers prior to dining and discovered one of them had a bad experience with the CFS after being warned by the waitress that the quality of the CFS varied depending on who was running the grill on that particular day. \n\nI didn't make any inquiries with the waitress regarding the CFS. I figured I would order it and give it it's due process good, bad or indifferent. Of all the places I've included in my quest for the ultimate Chicken Fried Steak, this was by far the worst of the bunch without question. This was not lightly breaded and smothered in gravy like EVERY other place included in the quest. This was an unbreaded piece of meat served on top of the gravy. Apperance aside, the first bite was not appetizing and almost brought the meal to a screeching halt. The potatoes (I got home fries) were undercooked, as was the anemic pancake I got in place of toast. Three of the five in our group got pancakes and there was no consistency between the three.\n\nAlthough the waitress was extremely friendly and the coffee was never empty, she brought the meals out one plate at a time for our party of five. I can't speak for the others in the group, but this was not a good experience for me. I am normally not a \""one and done\"" kind of guy and will eventually give the Sunshine Cafe another shot based solely on previous visits, but will defintely scratch the CFS from my list of choices. | 0 |
After ascending the stairs, one is transported into an authentic Chinese restaurant complete with plastic, white table cloths and seemingly dingy decor. The food is delicious and the service is speedy. During our visit the host was especially friendly and spoke English very well. As far as the food, the Beef Stir-fry with Chinese broccoli was quite delectable as was the Steamed shrimp with garlic. However, the shrimp weren't peeled nor cleaned, something that was more an annoyance than anything. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for tasty Chinese cuisine in Montreal. | 1 |
Hmm, it seems like this place can be a hit-or-miss type affair. All my previous times here are fond memories, but it has been over two years. Reading my previous review, it appears the food was great and I was a happy, spicy camper.\n\nI came here the other night with a friend all excited to relive those tasty memories. First major disappointment was my margarita. It came in a small tumbler (the type you get at school canteens) with rock salt around the rim in a very haphazard manner. It also wasnt a *great* margarita regardless of how it was presented and lack of good salt. My friend's sangria looked more exciting, with two tone white and dark red and lots of fruit. But I mean...it's a mexican restaurant, surely the margaritas should be served in margarita glasses!\n\nWe skipped any starters, and I had the fish main dish served with the chillie sauce and came with rice. The presentation wasn't fantastic, but then I'm not one that rates this as the highest point. But it just felt a bit serving-by-numbers. The fish was nice, the sauce was nice, but the salad was only the really stringy bits of lettuce that are really thin and almost pointy and didn't really make eating them enjoyable. I wanted a good big leafy salad to go with the fish.\n\nMy friend's main was similarly plated in a uninspired way. We both finished our mains. The mexican rice that came with it was a bit over salted. The sauce that was dolloped on top of my fish hid the fish entirely and looked a little messy. But we didn't complain per se.\n\nThe table was also wobbly and as the waitress adjusted it she spilt our drinks everywhere, wetting the napkins, but didn't offer to clean this up or replace them. She was lovely and looked a bit harrassed and I am forgiving, but this was a nuisance.\n\nI just feel quite sorely disappointed that my memories of Viva Mexico weren't as good as I remember. Compared to other restaurants I've eaten in the city since, which had more exciting menus and *far* better margaritas, I can't see myself racing back here. | 0 |
One word, food poisoning (read below)I want to give this place a good review but I just can't. Went today and received awful customer service, very slow. The private room we were in was freezing so we asked to turn it off and they server said he would do it ASAP, which he did, but it took 15 minutes to do so. Then as he finishes taking our order, he asks if we want biscuits and apple butter while we wait... Uhm hello apple butter, Yess please. About 20 minutes later 9 out of 11 meals come out, no biscuits yet. Then finally the biscuits come, so much for those coming out while we wait) and my food comes right after. We still had one person who had no food. I will say I was happy when the manager came and addressed the issue saying it should have come out with the rest of the food. She graciously took her meal off the check. Yes we had a larger group but none of us ordered complex food like ribs or pulled pork. Majority was chicken sandwiches. \n\nMy chicken sandwich was pink in the middle and I didn't notice until I got into the middle. Everyone was done eating so I just gave up. Now as I sit here at 4 am, I am wide awake due to being sicker than a dog all night. \n\nI'm sorry for the one star but food poisoning is no joke. I will say that the apple butter lived up to its name. | 0 |
I went to Social House with my sister and best girlfriends Saturday during my Vegas bachelorette party. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. We sat outside in very comfortable garden furniture, ate delicious Japanese and Pan-Asian fusion food, had great drinks, saw the pirate show three times (yes, we were there a while) and had OUTSTANDING service. Nate and Ron were not only attentive, sweet and knowledgeable waiters, but very adorable as well!\n\nWould recommend to anyone and would definitely go back! | 1 |
This is a nice stop before heading west to California. We only eat breakfast here but lunch and dinner look delicious as well. This is the perfect family restaurant. The food is ALWAYS on point and prices are good. If you're from out-of-town and you've never been, you definitely have to give it a try (especially for breakfast). | 1 |
So.. I'm not gonna lie.. I've been here ONCE, but when I was here I was browsing for a specific item. I was in the electronics section (looking for a camera) and noticed that not a single employee was around. Any that I saw were with customers already, which is completely understandable. So I waited around for about 20 minutes and finally decided that I would come back tomorrow after researching a little more about the camera's I wanted. I did notice, however, that their selection was pretty scarce. As I was walking out of the store I noticed at least 3 employee's chatting it up by the registers. So... if they had time to chat, I'm guessing they also had some time to help me out. Perhaps it was wrong place, wrong time... but I've worked in retail before, and customers usually don't put up with that. Regardless, I will be back, but only because it's the closest Best Buy to where I live. | 0 |
I am a huge fan of the meats...they are all delicious and tasty and the spicy sauce kicks me in my mouth in the best way possible. I have been there 3 times in the last 6 weeks and it will continue to be in my favorite rotation. The sides are different and don't blow my hair-back but I say keep it simple because the fries are on point and nothing goes better with great bbq than fries. Keep it simple and keppin on point. I will see you with my bib tied on tight soon. | 1 |
The Garage has a beer and wine selection that is above average though not remarkable by any stretch of the imagination. The burgers are weak, but I would recommend trying one of their salads, which are some of the best I have had in the valley.\n\nGood job with the interior. During the winter months, the bar area opens onto a small patio. | 1 |
Mel Brooks once said the mystery of life is the Egg Cream. \""It has no cream and no egg!\"" Well, maybe McAlpines does have some cream or at least whipped cream, maybe. I don't ask. I just enjoyably slurp.\n\nWonderful service, good simple food, phenomenal atmosphere...and today, cherry pie. Long live McAlpines! | 1 |
