ok, i used to not enjoy denny's. i thought they used to be overpriced compared to alot of cheaper places. they've made alot of changes to their menu and prices. i really enjoy it now. i only go here for breakfast. they have breakfasts for $2,$4,and a large omlette breakfast for $6. the $2 bisquits and gravy and awesome, and yes, only $2 for a big plate of bisquits and gravy. ther food quality is good, service is good, and all around good place with their new pricing and menu options. they are open late at night but have a limited late night menu. i believe they still have free food on your bday. mine is tomorrow, so i'm going there for my free breakfast. they also have a special where kids eat free making it even cheaper. i think they've made a tremendous improvement to their food and prices.

After seeing all the positive reviews on Yelp, I expected Grimaldi's to be anywhere from good to excellent. I ended up trying it for the first time tonight, and am very confused about why they're so highly rated. The bottom of both pies were half black and burned, there was almost no cheese on the pies, the sauce is bland, and the pies are way overpriced. \n\nAside from the pizza, the building has a nice atmosphere and looks very good. There's a nice bar area and the employees were friendly. The pies came out fast, too, which is surprising considering how awfully burned they were.\n\nWill probably give this place one more try because of all the hype I've read about it, hoping that I just got a bad batch. As of right now, I would say this is nearly, if not absolutely the worst pizza I've ever had.

Ordered a french dip sandwich with fries. The fries were excellent and crispy, but the sandwich could have been a little bigger. Overall, it had a nice atmosphere and the value was average.

I heard about this place from a friend. His band played there. I like blues and heard they had good blues music so I went to check it out. They had someone cooking food outside. They had a $5.00 cover. The man at the door was rude. We took a look inside. There was a few people playing pool and video poker. The band didn't sound that good. It looks dirty and sits in a strip mall. Didn't impress me. I won't be back.

Great hotel. I stayed here last night for the fourth night of my July 4th weekend, but I've stayed here dozens of times over the years. The rooms here are cheap if you book well in advance. E.g., you can get a low end room for around $100/night on the weekends if you book at least 4 to 6 months ahead of time. If you book within the last couple months before your stay, that same room might be around $250/night on the weekends. \n\nThe rooms here are very contemporary. My room basically looked like an Ikea demonstration bedroom. Outside your room, you will find a plethora of entertainment, shops and restaurants. \n\nTom Colicchio's Craftsteak here has the best porterhouse I've ever eaten. You will find excellent service here. Rainforest cafe is a wonderful family restaurant that has animatronic animals everywhere that regularly move and make sounds in the rainforest decorated surroundings. The menu items are American food. The prices are reasonable and Kids will love this place.\n\nHakkasan here has the reputation for being one of the biggest and best nightclubs in the world. Steve Aoki, Calvin Harris, Tiesto are resident DJs here, which means you can catch one of them performing at either Hakkasan or the Wet Republic pool party at least once a month. In the summer months, all three DJs usually perform here monthly. I caught Tiesto yesterday at Wet Republic and had a blast.\n\nMGM has a pretty large pool complex with a lazy river that is available to hotel guests for free. MGM's casino has a large array of slots and table games if that's your thing. Finally, the only downside of this place is that it is so large it feels like it takes forever to walk to anything.

This is my new gym for as long as I plan to live in Arizona. \n\nAfter my LA Fitness fiasco, I decided that a local gym was more up my alley. I wanted something small, less crowded, not douchy, and LOCALLY owned.\n\nI turned to Yelp, and found Independence Gym. Not gonna lie, I saw some of my Yelp friends check in here, so I thought, maybe they are on to something. It's not far from my house, and a couple doors away from Planned Parenthood (whatever that means).\n\nANYWAY....\n\nI came in, and this was the gym of my dreams. It was prime time. Just after work hours. Enough of a crowd that it wasn't empty, but it wasn't overcrowded. An amazing selection of cardio equipment (stair climbers, treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, etc).\n\nThe free-weights are perfect. Everything was racked. Both the employees and members were racking their own weights. The dumbbells are not clearly marked, so you may have to do light math in your head. Thank God I'm Indian and smart.\n\nThere are TONS of benches here. When I worked out at LA Fitness, there were 3-4 benches total, so people would use the benches at the seated row machine to do various exercises. It was annoying. There are nearly a dozen here.\n\nThere is even a lunge station, complete with hardwood floor and free-bar.\n\nLocker rooms were perfect and CLEAN! \n\nNow the disclaimer. If you are looking for a pussy gym, this isn't the place. Don't expect flat screen TV's (although there are enough TV's here), WiFi, etc. This is a place to get your swoll on. \n\nThis is not a country club. No steam rooms, saunas, pools, hot tubs, basketball courts. This is a gym, not a resort. You come here to work out, not relax and live like a lord.\n\nDon't come here looking to socialize. It's not Lifetime, LA Fitness or 24 Hour. This place is legit. \n\nAlso, it turns out to be cheaper than LA Fitness, no contract, and no pressure to sign up for personal training. At LA Fit, they would say \""free personal training session\"" and then hammer you with a sales pitch for training. None of that here. \n\nMy only gripe, but they claim it will be remedied....no spin classes. They say the classes will be added by the end of the year. Not a big deal, because I can go to spin elsewhere for the time being.\n\nThis is just a gym where you can work out. Friendly people. Locally owned. And if you want a real trainer, not some idiot who passed an online test....you can hire one here.

Hello all,\n\nI've had the opportunity to visit three times so far and all experiences did not disappoint. The food quality is fantastic. It's great authentic food for a GREAT value. The Salmon and Tuna Ceviche is the best. And, the Carne Asada is very tasty and well prepared. My colleagues at my third visit had the Blackened Mahi Mahi and were indeed satisfied. I had a taste ant it was perfectly cooked and seasoned.\n\nThe service has been on par at every visit, particularly my second visit. This was a group birthday dinner on a Friday night. The guest of honor was running late and the host staff were very gracious enough to offer their office to store our many birthday gifts until all guests arrived. They also offered a better table that would meet our needs.\n\nSo, after three visits, when I am in Shadyside and hungry, I look forward to dining at Steel Cactus.\n\nColleen C.

I'm not exactly sure why.. but I've been craving sushi A LOT lately. This is only of any importance because I used to despise sushi. Just anybody suggesting it would result in a dirty look from me. So when a group of old friends invited me to Yama Sushi, I was actually looking forward to it.\n\nThere was about a 35 minute wait before we got seated (only 10 minutes for me & another friend because we were super late meeting up with the rest of the group. hehe.) Anyway, this was a surprise to me because it was a Thursday night. I would only expect this on a weekend; a good indication though, mind you.\n\nThe inside is pretty small. It was cramped, actually. The tables are separated by mini room dividers. I didn't mind this at all because I wasn't there to be close & intimate with anybody.. but the table next to us might have appreciated more separation from our group. We were pretty rowdy. Lol. The servers barely had any maneuvering room. I'm sure they've knocked a few people in the back of the heads before. \n\nAs any person with any bit of common sense would do, we all got the AYCE. At $23.99 for dinner, I'd say this is a pretty good deal! They had a pretty big menu. I was especially delighted when I saw BBQ ribs on the appetizers section. (I love ribs!) These were short ribs served on shredded cabbage. I probably had about 4 orders of these. So yummy! I like the fatty kind, which to me has the best flavor. They had those, along with the lean ones as well. You just get a random combo in one plate.\nNow on to the sushi.. honestly, I don't even really remember what we ordered. All I know was that I enjoyed 99% of it. The one that stood out to me is the No Name (#24). I remember enjoying that one the most. Everything seemed really fresh. I was looking at the ingredients and I noticed \""Crunch\"" was used in many of the rolls.. and whatever it was, I liked it.\nI also tried the quail egg one. I was so excited. I grew up eating quail egg & I absolutely love it. But I wasn't told that it was gonna be raw.. maybe that's what the server meant when she stated, \""Oh we have an adventurer here.\"" I looked at it, tried it, and let's just say that it ended up balled up in napkin.\n\nService was great. Up until we were left waiting for our server to check up on us again so we could order some more, only to have another server tell us that she left. Weird.. no one even bothered to let us know. Well the 2nd server ended up taking care of us at the end of the night and God bless her. She had to put up with one of our friends, who had an order of sushi left untouched. He was willing to pay a la carte for it, but she was nice enough to try and get it half off.. then ended up not charging him at all. \n\nOverall, this place is great. I would definitely come back and recommend it as well. Btw, don't forget your desserts! Mango & chocolate mochi ice cream and red bean ice cream! Yum!

NEVER GO HERE.\nAs soon as we walked in, we were given a tray, at the bar. They were \""fresh out of the dishwasher\"". However, they were dripping wet, and when I reached out for mine, there was a sauce like substance that I got on my hand. \nWhen I tried to tell the waitress about it, she didn't believe me, informing me of how \""clean they were\"". I had to show her my dirty hand for her to wipe it off. She didn't even offer me a napkin.\nWhen our drinks came, my friend noticed big black floaties in her glass. The waitress blamed it on the tea filter.\nAnother waitress asked if things were going ok, and I said no, telling her about the dirty items.\nShe argued with me about it! What kind of staff argues with a customer! \nWE WALKED RIGHT OUT, AND YOU SHOULD TOO.\nIf I could give ZERO stars, I would. This place is filthy!

When you are a city with incredible dining why would you eat an overpriced chain you could eat at anywhere? I'm curious if the people giving this place 5 stars would also get off on going to Chili's or Bennigans or other mediocre chains. Yes, the menu is large. No, nothing on it is spectacular or delicious. It's all chain defrosted garbage. With Bouchon in the same building I don't understand who would ever eat here instead.

After reading through a few of the other reviews here, my experience was not much different, though it does at least sound like Airbridge is at least *trying* to make things better.\n\nFirst things first: I booked my tour through Viator.com, which actually does not name the company you'll be doing the tour with. The price ended up being less than $72, which was half of what I later learned Airbridge charges if you buy directly from them. As per Viator's directions, I called the day before the tour to find out when I would be picked up--I found out that I would need to walk from my hotel (Palms Place) to the valet at the Golden Nugget, a 10-minute walk, to meet the bus at 6 AM.\n\nThe bus was nearly 15 minutes late, made several other stops at a number of other random hotels, and we were deposited at the Airbridge Terminal. I don't think any of us knew where we were, or why we had stopped; we were offered no explanation, honestly. All I knew was that we were at a random industrial park for no apparent reason. We sat on the bus for nearly 10 minutes, watching our bus driver smoke and chat with other drivers, again with no explanation given as to where we were or what we were doing there.\n\nFinally we were let off the bus and into a room in the \""terminal\"" where we were shouted at by some random gentleman who basically just tried to upsell us on a variety of other things (e.g., helicopter tour, skywalk, etc.). From there we were sent into an adjoining room to \""check in,\"" where we were asked for another $10 for no apparent reason and given a couple of random slips of paper and a flimsy bracelet, and told where to go to reach our buses.\n\nI headed outside to the bus and settled into a seat, but was rather randomly and rudely told to move next to a gentleman who would not close his legs or keep his elbows to himself, so I was essentially jammed involuntarily into a smaller-than-usual seat for the entire ride. Joy.\n\nThe driver did her best, but... well... bless her heart, whoever told her that she should be a public speaker for a living should be slapped silly. She had a terrible command of the English language, and many of her sentences (almost all of which contained the phrases \""now listen,\"" \""you guys,\"" \""you know,\"" and \""OK then,\"" usually multiple times each) were so tortured and nonsensical as to be incomprehensible. For example, as we began our drive, she told us that she'd be our tour guide as well as \""your best friend if you want, and your bridesmaid if you need.\"" WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN. When there wasn't an automated recording playing, chattering away factoids about the passing landscape, this lady would pipe up, telling us barely comprehensible stories about--things. I know she said \""Ragtown\"" about fifty times, but I couldn't tell you what Ragtown even is to save my life.\n\nWe made a quick stop at the Hoover Dam bypass which was kind of cool, though the driver chastised us for not all being on the bus seven minutes earlier than scheduled. We made one additional stop for a \""bathroom break\"" at a random McDonald's in Kingman, Arizona, before continuing the rest of the way to the South Rim.\n\nI suppose I was lucky; I was meeting a friend at the NatGeo visitor's center who had driven there separately, and I was not going to return to Las Vegas with the rest of the tour group. I informed the driver, who seemed offended that I would even say such a thing. (Not exactly the reaction I anticipated.) I'm not sure what affiliation, if any, Skybridge has with NatGeo, but the visitor's center is nothing but an overpriced tourist trap with a horrible lunchroom that wouldn't have been so bad if they had had more than ONE PERSON working the entire line for the entire group. We did each get a lunch ticket for a free sandwich/\""rice bowl\""/pizza/soup & salad, but the driver seemed weirdly delighted that none of us knew that we would be getting this ticket upon arrival, actually taunting an Australian couple who dared ask when they would be getting the lunch ticket. It was, in a word, bizarre.\n\nI was slightly wary of the concept of a bus tour in the first place--at least I know now to avoid them at all costs in the future. This was not a great experience and I will not be seeking out anything similar from this or any other company for the foreseeable future.

This bar is based more on looks rather than authenticity of Sushi. Not that I have a problem with promoting ambiance, but I'm more about authenticity and dive places. Additionally the service was rather shoddy and IMHO rather racist. There was definitely a perceptible difference in service to people of the brown leaning as compared to the paler people. I've been told that's a Phoenix mentality ( but I still thinks it's absolutely wrong).\n\nAs for the sushi well the gaari was bitter ( a good sign that the place is unauthentic) and the slices of fish (which I ordered, tuna and salmon ) were too thick ( on the maki) and in the rolls too skimpy. Shushi doesn't have too many variables to play around with so the way to determine its goodness is based on these parameters (also on the taste/texture of the rice). The lighting was too dim for a raw meat food joint. \n\nThe servers were attractive though (again a sign that what they are selling isn't food)

One word: disappointing.\n\nThis buffet gets one star for decor and one star for just having food.

Some of my girlfriends coworkers recently invited us to join them here to sing karaoke. \n\nMany years ago this was a great little place called the Village Pub. That was back in the 70s. I once had dinner with Joyce Dewitt here.\n\nWell the days of dining with celebrities here are long gone. Let's flash ahead 30 plus years to my current review.\n\nI work down on the strip and knowing the kind of riff raff that hangs out around here I wasn't expecting much from this experience. As soon as I stepped into the place my expectations were fulfilled. The place was dingy and crowed with the typical prostitutes, drug pushers, losers and other assorted parasites of society you'd expect to see in a bad part of town.\n\nThe place has the worst sound system of any karaoke bar I've ever visited.\n\nThe staff was slow and seemed bored with their jobs.\n\nDespite all these positive attributes I think I'll refrain from visiting again.

Seriously... Jewish Delis are a significant point of weakness for me. Fresh bagels. Ridiculous portions of food that should never been mixed together or consumed in one sitting. Especially for breakfast! \n\nHarrie's is no exception. Hot coffee coming right up- you will eat to content and from a smorgasbord of delectable homemade options. If you eat here all you will say on your way home from Vegas is, Oy Vey! Who needs a buffet?!

I had garlic chicken and my friend had pad thai. We both thought our meals we're tasteless. \n\nThe service was slow and non-personal. The piped in electronic 70s music: hideous.\n\nAnd it was expensive.

The place is nice and classic depending on the night of crowd to determine noise level. It's inside Bellagio so no fountain view but beautifully light courtyard pool view by the window. The food is great based on comfort American style dishes with generous portion. Our server is friendly although needs further training to help the restaurant to obtain another Michelin star.

I love, love, love this place. My boyfriend and I come here at least once a month. The food is amazing; I usually get the Costa Burrito, Strawberry French Toast, or a brizza (breakfast pizza); today I was wanting something a bit healthier so I tried the Apple Power Pancakes ... they were most excellent and super filling. The staff is also extremely friendly and helpful. It is nice to sir inside or on the dog-friendly patio and is an overall great experience.

A great tribute to Michael. I think it's a tribute first and on that alone, it's a great show (if you are a fan, which I am). If you are not a fan and don't love the music, this is not the show for you. There was one incredible dancer that stole the show by effortlessly moon-walking all over the stage--truly incredible. I could have watched him dance all night. The acrobats were definitely talented, however, I can't help but think that I've seen better gymnastic feats at other cirque shows. There is no criticism here, it's just my humble opinion. My only request to the producers: please play Billie Jean in it's entirety. \n\nShe's just a girl that claims that I am the ONE....

The owners are fantastic. They are located in a first class shopping center facility that you can tell is run by professionals and the exterior sign is superb.

Have been going here for the last year and have never had a long wait. TIP: schedule your appointment at the beginning of the day to avoid the wait. Dr's offices always run behind by the end of they day. Took one star off due to the sterile feel at the office.

The Place is first full of Ghettos. \nIt's very Loud, unclean and humans there buy everything.\nI mean there are always empty Shelves. Never again.

Total jerks, horrific customer service, no manners at all. Highly recommend using ANYONE else. Even their front office people that answer the phone were rude, I think his name was Bren?? I dunno, just had a horrible experience with them

I haven't been to Circus Circus since I was a kid so I decided to be nostalgic and stay here again. It has great parking! & *always park on the third floor since you can walk into the casino without use of the elevator*! It's a great place for kids. The arcade is HUGE ! The staff is so nice & helpful!! They are so friendly and really care. They should upgrade eventually but regardless they'll get customers. They also need better room service so you can order food up from the restaurants! My overall experience has been very good

Flavors and textures are off. No chicken no noodle soup (really? Just call it vegetable soup) is not terrible but ask for salt. I am typically a salt minimalist but the broth is seriously lacking in flavor. \nThe quinoa salad needs something spicy. The cintronette dressing tastes less like citrus and more like a shot of vinegar which leaves an almost rancid after taste in your mouth.\nThe kids menu states that the cheesy quesadilla is served on a gluten free tortilla. We were told after my friend with a gluten allergy ate some off of her daughter's plate that the tortilla is in fact NOT gluten free. As it is our first (and last) time eating here we were all sharing. \nFood was sub par and even though the service was friendly when you could get someone's attention the staff was not as on top of things as they could have been considering how small the restaurant is and how few people were eating. And REALLY, not a good idea to advertise food as gluten free when it is not. \nThey did take some off of the balance in order to try to make it right but it is not an experience I wish to repeat.\nThey also have an herb shop which seems to be their primary focus. You would think their chef would use some of those herbs to flavor the bland food. Maybe if they concentrated on one thing they could be more successful.

Fez is one of my favorite places in central Phoenix. The vibe here is pseudo-industrial, hipster grill/lounge. Prices here are reasonable, and although it strikes me as a more spacious, loungey attempt at Delux - I would stick to items other than burgers at Fez. \n\nWhile the Tangier and Fez burgers are decent, they just don't compare to the other fancy burger bar. The kisra and hummus are ok, but kind of a yawn. The standout appetizer here is the chicken phyllo pakcet stuffed with a delicious mixture of chicken, feta, bell pepper and spinach baked in a flaky puff pastry.\n\nThe pomegranate chicken is tasty, but my favorite dish here by far is the inventive strawberry blueberry cashew salad -it's just a terrific explosion of different flavors. \n\nFez has an incredibly extensive martini list! Try to approach the restaurant from 3rd St. if you're skittish on the Central Ave construction.

I so wanted to love this spa. But sadly, it was a huge disappointment. I set up apts for my husband and I to get massages. I thought the rates were decent, especially for Vegas. But the minute we walked in, it was like a cattle call. The front desk had a line and you paid before your service (which is rare given that you already have a credit card down to hold the apt) my issue with this is normal spas will add/change massage type based on your and the therapists discussion. Or allow you to add aromatherapy in the room. Not here. You pay in a loud lobby, then are shuffled to a check in area for slippers/robe. This was not relaxing either. there were piles of used slippers and robes, and a desk attendant asking your size and then asking you to step to the side so she can help the group of people behind you. Then you and others are escorted (in a loud fashion) back to the dressing rooms, and they assign you a locker one by one...right down a row. Did I mention, I wasn't there with this group? You get a partial tour and then off they go.\n\nMaybe I am used to upper end spas, but most treat you one on one. They provide you with a calm/quiet tour and ask if they can bring you anything to drink. That isn't the case here. There are carafes of water and paper cups, but nothing fancy. \n\n\nI tried to shake off the noise and undress. I felt weird because most everyone was in a swimsuit. I was not. I had a robe on, but for my steam room and shower and spa I normally am nude. There were a couple other people there who were like me but the majority of the people were suited. \nI showered, again nothing fancy in the way of body lotions/shampoos- just generic \""shampoo\"" gallons. It was this way for all the amenities.\n\nWhen I walked by the towel bin by the spa area, some towels had blood on it. I covered the mess with a towel and walked to the front desk (in my robe) and let them know the towels were over flowing and that there was some sanitation issues. They thanked me and went back quickly to take care of it. \n\n\nIt was so busy that I couldn't go in the hot tub. It was a normal \""oversized hot tub\"" that maybe 10 people could fit in. There were already 8 or 9 and I wasn't looking to sit super close to strangers. And then the chairs surrounding it were full as well. \n\nI decided to just do the steam rooms and showers and then wait for my massage.\nThe place is like a maze, but to get to the co-ed space, you have to zig zag down some long haul ways, but you finally find it. It is a cool space. And there is a relaxing salt room. I don't know why it is called that, it is just a warm room, with comfy seats and dim lights for the 'sky'. But it was quiet. Finally.\n\nMy husband even commented how the massage staff just walk around calling out names (loudly) and so it takes away from the relaxing vibe. There was also massage therapists walking into the space, with coffee in hand and carrying all their bags - as if they were just getting to work. \n\nOnto my massage, it was good. Not great. But it was good. I enjoyed the room, the bed was warm. And the massage therapist just did her thing.\nThere was no spa like smells, or scented lotions. But it was nice.\nWhen you are done, they show you cards, and ask you to choose one, but you don't really understand the point until they give you the card and say it is a gift. It is like a motivational bookmark.

Poor. I don't understand what all the hubbub is about over this place. The meat was dry and lacked flavor. It tasted like they bought frozen meat and used that instead of smoking it themselves. I was very disappointed with the food. If you want real bbq, go to Texas.

I really like this place. Casual but cool, friendly. Fries and mayonnaise were excellent.

Great service - from the first call. Cleaned my carpets the next day and did a fantastic job.

The almond croissant was far better than average. Combine the coffee with the croissant for a little bit of heaven. All at a reasonable price.

I've eaten here regularly when I lived in Laval. Here's the breakdown:\n\nBig place with a great big patio during the summer.\n\nSTAFF:\nThey should just rename it \""Hooters\"" snobby girls prancing around with micro mini skirts and push up bras with tops two sizes too small doesn't impress me. Total lack of professionalism.They don't smile nor do they seem to care about doing their jobs very well.\nI don't think it's appropriate to look like that when serving the public. Women go there to dine too, not just men so if that is to be the uniform then please make it equal and put some of the waiters in something just as revealing so us women can have eye candy too. \n\nI had one waitress many times who was always so rude. She spoke only french and while I am bilingual, when I'm spending my money and I'm the customer I want to be served in my language. After I answer her in english she would respond to me in french. That's rude. The least she could have done was go get someone who could speak english to wait on us.\n\nThe male waiters are far superior than the women. Emilio is one of my favorite waiters.\n\nFOOD:\nVery good. I always loved their pizzas. Only reason I used to go there\n\nDRINKS:\nThey have quite a nice wine list

My first but not last visit. I highly recommend the salmon cakes, they were just lovely! My sister visiting from San Jose was not going to eat anything. That didn't last, she can vouch for the salmon cakes. I changed my second order of salmon cakes to calamari. Calamari strips are not my favorite, I prefer the little squid with the tentacles, I should have asked. My niece ordered fried chicken with mac and cheese. The mac was made with a mild cheese, a bit too suddle for my palette. My niece wasn't impressed with the chicken, said it wasn't bad just not seasoned very well. Later she said anyone can fry chicken it's the seasoning that sets it apart. Yes she is a fried chicken expert, just like I'm a fried catfish expert. Back to my review.... Our waitress Kendra was attentive without being overbearing. Overall good food made better with good company and good service... I will visit the one on Power if next time I have a visitor....\n\nI'll be back!

We love this place, the food is fantastic. Great spices and good quality food for the price :)

I have been there several time, and I had a bad experience itch time. \nBad customer service, the impression that you are bothering them all the time. The shop is close when it suppose to be open. They are pretty close to my house but I avoid as much as possible going there.

First visit (post rebrand): WEC 42. \n\nIt was moved from one part of the Hard Rock to another and resized from a club venue to a monstrosity that affords you only a fraction of the awesome lines-of-sight that the previous The Joint afforded before its relocation/renaming to The Joint Rogue. Anyone who walks into this venue after having been in the other one really gets a shock when they see the new size of this thing and a bigger shock if they get a terrible line-of-sight to the stage/cage.\n\nI have attended too many shows and Mixed Martial Arts events here to list, both before when it was club-sized and probably a four-to-five star venue to now where it has no idea what it is (is it a mid-size venue with arena-level shittiness?) or have enough competent staff to be able to fulfill their duties. \n\nOne specially asinine experience with their incompetent staff: \nmy girlfriend was dizzy from the BTU-heat being generated by the crowd on the floor during an Interpol/White Rabbit/Imagine Dragons concert. So we walk out of the pit and get to the back wall off to the side (bothering no one, except one overly inconsiderate staff member) and she sits on the ground so she does not keel over while I run over to the bar to get preposterously priced bottles of water. \""Get up!\"" she is yelled instead of affording her a minute to bring down her body temp or asking if she is feeling alright. I get there right after she is threatened with being kicked out in her condition. Awesome. Hard Rock staff in a nutshell. \n\nAnother asinine experience since I have so many: \ndifferent show, same award-winning staff. We queue for an Arcade Fire/Local Natives Coachella runoff show. Once we are inside on barrier centre there is this fat, clearly Mallcop-Paul-Blart-inspired staff member (with a shirt one size too small for his portly mid section). He is so intent on being a Employee of the Month that he is watching everyone creepily like a hawk to make sure he can throw someone out. Of course he throws someone out, and since his friend protests -- although he was doing nothing besides protesting, which he has a right to do since the fucking show had not even started yet, this goon security gets in his most gut-sucked, chest-out posterior and squares up from across the barrier with this guy from LA and keeps repeatedly asking in an agitated manner if he wants to join his friend. Great conflict resolution. Something tells me that this clown would not be so brave if he was not inside The Joint with all the other black shirts backing him like a gang of unfit J.R.O.T.C. rejects. \n\nThe afterparty room upstairs is overly tiny and sucks as much as The Joint's staff but at least Blart is not there. - E

We were on the way back from a visit to the Hoover Dam in the afternoon and saw a sign out side of Chilly Jilly'z that said Shaved Ice. Well, being from Hawaii we decided to take a break and eat some Shaved Ice. Sadly to say the Shaved Ice was more of chipped ice than shaved ice. I suspect that the ice was crushed in a blender vice being shaved. We also paid extra to have condensed milk added to the Shaved Ice but you couldn't even taste it. Overall the Shaved Ice is not of the same quality that you can find from shops in Hawaii. We had ordered strawberry Shaved Ice but the syrup used on the Shaved Ice tasted like that of what you would use in a slush or perhaps even juice. On the plus side was the selection of yogurt and toppings were plentiful and tasty.

I have been a regular of this place since 2007. My favorite dishes are \""Stir fried pig's intestine in spicy sauce\"", \""Spicy mapo tofu with pork\"", and \""tang-soo-yook\"". I almost always get the same menu all the time, so I can't say much about the other items. But man, these people can cook!

Disappointed... I do luv Jonny the bartender! My steak was dry & over cooked... My friends bone in Filet looked good next time I will order that!

Lobby is very nice. Service was nice but weird I wanted to book under either my AAA or government rate but the front desk said I had to call the main ritz number to do that. I literally went to my car and did that. All the people at the hotel were very nice but don't know why it is like that. Bar and common areas are nice. Other guests are old uptight douches. Drinks overpriced. Rooms are not nice. Old...just didn't feel like a ritz. Just came from nice rooms in Vegas so maybe jaded but really they should refurbish.

I can't see how this place has as many stars as it does. Maybe I came on a bad night.\n\nA night where I wanted to order a chicken wrap and found that if I wanted lettuce or tomatoes then I would be charged extra. When the girl came back and asked if I wanted tomatoes on my salad I asked \""are you going to charge me extra for them?\""\n\nA night where the salad dressing packet was covered in some other type of dressing. \n\nA night where I saw a fly land on the chefs towel and where he proceeded to wipe his spatula with said towel. \n\nA night where I saw a patron at the bar area holding his hand roughly three feet off the bar. Curious to why he was doing that, my questions were answered when he slammed his hand down on a fly (unconfirmed if it was the same fly who rested earlier on the towel) and then lightly brushed the stunned yet permanently disabled insect over the counter. \n\nThe saving grace was music over the speakers playing Micheal Jackson. Most likely will not return unless I'm in Phoenix and for some reasons they are the only place on the planet that has waffle mix.

The Oreo Shake is great. I've been thinking about it all week. I'll certainly be heading back for more!

At least on Saturday night, this is a high end dormitory. Including that the 2am hollerin' and hootin' in halls is transmitted directly into your room.\n\nThis is probably the perfect place to land when you load up your sisters and head up from UVW for a weekend of partying in the big city. The South Side night life (bleh) is right there. It is great that young folks are finding ways to avoid driving while hammered, so I'll give the hotel that.\n\nBut, if you land here from Hotwire, after choosing a 'downtown' hotel, and coming to Pittsburgh with your family, you probably should try to get your money back. When we checked in, we were put in a 3rd floor room - but when the staff saw I had a 5 y.o. in tow, he volunteered to put us on the top (6th) floor to get us away from the noise. Apparently, the 6th floor is the quiet floor where they stick the non college crowd.\n\nBut, not so quiet. Once the bars close at 2am, the place was loud, as the after hours parties began on our floor. Noise in in the hall was pretty crazy at times, and seemed to be from different groups, not a single source. We were all woken up a few times, and I'm not a light sleeper. We were street side, and there was also a lot of noisy honking from the street. All three of us were awake. Ask for a back (south) side room.\n\nThe staff were courteous, the place was clean (except the Magnum box my daughter found when we pulled out the sofa bed), the rooms were pretty spacious. Hence, 2, not 1, star.

Have been using for the past few months instead of a company I had been using for 20 years because the old supplier just sells ice and did not return phone calls. Great customer service. You need ice right away, they try to handle right away. Have storage box issues, they have immediate response, and usually an immediate solution. Nice owners and accomodating pleasant delivery staff. The ice is good too!

Literally as good as it gets! I've been wanting to jumpstart my fitness and was looking for a different way to do so other than going to a regular gym where I felt intimidated and lost. A friend recommended me to Chris at Pro Edge a few months ago and I've been hooked. \n\nI always attend Blackout Boxing and it absolutely is the best workout I give myself. Although it's a group class, Chris makes you feel like its one on one giving each of us individual attention to help correct our form or to be that voice to tell you that you can do this! \n\nChris' success is your success. Everyone is helpful, motivational and its just an all around fun, welcoming environment. He knows exactly what to do to push you, and shows you that you can go beyond your limits. I've also done buddy training which was killer! I survive each time and always walk out of that place wanting more and knowing results are on its way. \n\nI highly recommend Pro Edge if you are looking for a boxing gym where you not only get an awesome workout, but a place where you have a fit fam to encourage your goals and take you to the next level every time.

My girlfriend and I decided to try this place because of the positive reviews on this website and others. We were pleasantly surprised with how good it actually was. \n\nAs we walked towards the front, it looked closed on first glance because it was completely empty. The reason the interior was so empty because we choose the first beautiful day in PGH to visit and the outside seating is this restaurants REAL dining area.I am looking forward to returning to this outdoor dining experience when all the foliage is grown in and a bit later in the evening to get the real ambiance of this Pittsburgh jewel. The negative of the outdoor seating is the location. The patio is RIGHT next to Butler St. which made it a bit noisy when large trucks or loud motorcycles would pass. We were seated immediately and given glasses of water. \n\nThe service was average, nothing great, no problems either though. Nothing really to comment on.\n\nThe food, however, was the star of the evening. I ordered the Thai Yellow Rice. The chicken was crispy and cooked perfectly. The rice had great flavor, and I had the option of spice level, and choose the medium one, which was not very hot. My girlfriend had the pad thai which was delicious, simple, and not heavy with spices and marinades. \n\nThe prices are super reasonable and we will definitely frequent this place in Law-ville from now on. If you are a fan of Asian foods and would like a great place to eat, this is a MUST go.\n\nOne side note, this place is BYOB and they mean it. People around us brought bottles of wine and beer. The menu said there is charge of $1 for a glass. I do not know if they would charge to drink out of a beer bottle or can.

My friend and I decided to have dinner here. The food just awful and service was lacking. We ordered the vegetable soup which had chunks of ginger, hardly any of veggies or lentils. The worst part of the meal was the main dish we ordered the tandoori chicken sag it was mushy and the chicken was poor quality chewy and gristly. My friend pointed this out to the waitress and she told her maybe it wasn't cooked and she would let the cook know and that was it. What kind of response is that? We will definitely not be back.

so i have been to robbies several times. everything i've eaten there i liked. i mean really liked. tonight was the best. i had the best waiter \""eric\"" helping me with several things including finding the app for \""angry birds\"" on my android . he also steered me to the special which was the most amazing surf n turf i've prob ever had. prime rib, cooked just as i asked. almond crusted prawns! and steamed veggies . i told him i wanted to lick the plate! it was early tonight when we went for dinner so it was quiet, and that's a 1st for robbie fox. every other time i've gone i enjoyed the lively atmosphere and the great live music. and as mentioned the food has always been tops. i was so happy tonight i went for dessert and OMG! bread pudding shot to the top of favorites @ this place. sooo good. even tho i was full from the meal i couldn't stop. it's the holidays right? lol anyway if you've never been to robbies there are a number of reasons for you to go....so what are you waiting for ?

Flowers stunk to high heaven with all the chemicals they sprayed on them to try to make dead flowers look fresh. It didn't work, they looked like dead flowers. Absolutely the worst bouquet I've ever bought. Don't bother.

I went in on Mother's Day. They opened at seven I was there at 7:20. They didn't have any plain bagels. The general manager took my order and was very rude. I asked for my bagels to be in separate boxes so the sweet and the garlic didn't mix flavors. You would've thought I asked for 20 extra bagels. There was not a line or anyone else waiting for food but I felt like I had to get my order done 30 seconds or less. Just not a good experience.

I have never experienced anything but friendly and helpful service every time I've been to either this location or Charleston & Rainbow.\n\nI promise I'm not a shill, but when they try and upsell you the tire warranty, DO IT. It was only $40 (if I remember right), but was probably the best investment I've ever made. Any time I get a flat, I bring the car in and they either fix it for FREE in less than an hour, or replace the tire for just ten bucks!!

Fricken waiter spills soda all over us, then charges us 37$ gratuity for 2 friends that didn't even eat with us, for sitting down at our table. What a ripoff!

This place used to be amazing. The prices were great and the stylists were better than the 'just out of school' types you find at SuperCuts. Unfortunately, my monthly hair cuts turned into 30-minute sales pitches where I was encouraged to buy expensive shampoos, conditioners, and styling gels. \n\nThe worst part is that the various stylists were increasingly insulting saying things like, \""you see how your hair is kind of shiny? That's because you're using cheap gel. Redken makes a special gel that isn't shiny. Your hair would look so much better. It's only $29.99 plus tax.\"" \n\nThe stylists are also less and less efficient. I've showed up a number of times and been told that \""there is just one person ahead of you, so 20 minutes tops.\"" After 40 minutes, I simply didn't have enough time to stay any longer.\n\nIf you don't mind having your hair products insulted while they twist your arm trying to get you to buy expensive salon products for the ENTIRE 30 minutes, then the price is great. After my last four cuts have been dominated by lengthy sales pitches, I'm unwilling to go back.

Very kitschy cool. Perhaps too cool for itself at times. But the food was awesome! We went for a late dinner on a recent Friday night. The place was still crowded with a 30-45 minute wait for a table. Not a problem- we got some well mixed cocktails, did some people watching, and checked out the art on the walls. We got all of the tacos on the regular menu, and then two more off the daily specials. The low point was the halibut that just didn't work for me, the high point was the special of the day- an octopus taco that was just fabulous! The waiter was mostly attentive, but he was running ragged- at one point I was pretty sure I saw him plating food in the kitchen. We will definitely be back.

I realized just the other day that I never updated this review. Sadly, US Air still gets one star. \n\nAfter months of waiting, filling out paperwork, and jumping through annoying hoops. we got reimbursed for less than 1/3 of what was lost. Not to mention that the biggest things lost were hand-made Christmas gifts. We've learned our lesson about checking baggage... and about US Air. \n\nAfter such a fiasco, I won't be flying US Air again if I ever have the choice. If I have to fly on their airline, everything will be either shipped ahead or carry on. Ack!

Loved this place until I went one time when busy. Worst cut in a long time. Hit and miss is putting it nicely.

Great place for gasoline. The store is dirty and poorly maintained. The men's bathroom as broken and tagged up on a recent visit.

I ate here this evening with 7 members of my immediate family. Although our bellies left full, our wallets left empty and, several hours later, most of our tummies are still dealing with the aftermath of Great Wall's low quality food! Definitely not the dinner you want before a first-date movie!\n\nThere is nothing special to report about the bland and cheaply constructed food at Great Wall. The sauces are plain, the \""meat\"" is low quality and the desserts are lacking both taste and freshness. However, that doesn't stop this strip mall special from charging fine-eatery prices for its lackluster Chinese \""cuisine\""!\n\nThe buffet at $8-$9 per person is VERY limited in selection, but is, without a doubt, a far better value than ordering individual items off the regular menu, which range from $8 to $10 each for basic entrees such as Orange Chicken and Broccoli Beef. \n\nIf you find yourself craving something \""Chinese\""-esque, have a few extra bucks burning a hole in your pocket after payday and can't be bothered to drive 20 minutes up the freeway to the Chandler/Ahwatukee area for \""real\"" food, then don't hesitate to stop by Great Wall for a bite. \n\nSeriously, for the most basic \""take-out\""/\""buffet\"" style Chinese food fare at big-spender prices, Great Wall may be the best (and probably only) option in the entire town...err \""city\""...of Maricopa! \n\nP.S.- A \""value size\"" bottle of TUMS makes for a great after-meal snack for the whole family!

My kids have been using Gymcats for the last 15 years. I have always found the staff extremely helpful and friendly. I like the fact that they put the kids first in all cases and are dedicated 2 gymnastics and the lessons learned when you follow your dreams and work hard. I would highly recommend Gymcats to anyone and often told those who asked that my kids have gained confidence and discipline while attending Gymcats.

Great place for Mojitos.\nThe bartender Sean is the best Mojito maker this side of ... Jamaica?\n\nThe food is truly terrible.\nAmbience is a bit obnoxious\n\nBut the staff and bar full of regulars is a Hoot! Loves it!\n\n(btw, if you're hungry, go to the sushi place in the same strip mall, its awesome!)

I went one late morning for brunch extremely excited because of all the reviews on yelp and the menu does just look mouth watering. However, the portions are HUGE but the food is just not that great. Prices are a little high but you need to think about the amount of food you are getting. I tried the chicken and waffles which was a let down. The spinach and cheddar eggs were good, but again, nothing out of this world.

All around horrible. The store is absolutely gorgeous but the entire staff is snobby and rude.

This place was a bit of a disappointment. The photos on the menu look nothing like the meals that come out of the kitchen. My son ordered the seafood mix, which had little sea food and lots of water and veggies without taste. He said it was awful. I had the Hawaiian chicken bowl and instead of nice looking chicken strips in a large bowl with rice and veggies, I got a small bowl with small bites of chicken soaked in teriyaki sauce and wilted cabbage piece. Not very good. \n\nSo do not come here because the food is not represented well by the menu.

A group of friends and I stayed at Planet Hollywood Westgate for NYE's weekend and we chose The Strip House cause 1) it was conveniently located on the premises 2) reviews were excellent here on Yelp. (Thanks Yelpers) & 3) we wanted to have an excellent last dinner of the year. They accommodated our group of 10 nicely. We had an awesome waiter, Andrew. He was helpful with what was on the menu and I almsot believed that he was the one who created the menu. He memorized that menu down to a T with all of the night's specials. We started off with two of the Seafood Plateau appetizer. This is based on market price so it's worth it if you're a seafood lover and all of us were. Everything was fresh and good. I got the 10 oz. filet mignon, medium well with a butterfly cut. The sides are table shared sides (if you want to, that is). The side I got to share with the table was the Black Truffle Cream Spinach. Both dishes were delicious! I pretty much cleaned up the plate. It was worth every penny spent. Oh and I can't leave out that the table got a slice of the restaurant's infamous 24-layer cake. It was super rich in chocolate and milk would have helped out a lot. Ten people and we couldn't finish that single slice.\n\nThe place is a bit on the high end but that's what you get with a steakhouse. Let's just say our ten person bill was 2 bills short of a grand. \n\nOverall, I give this place 5 stars for service, food, and atmosphere and of course the great friends that made it even better.

Great locayion and love the fire pit! However, shrimp on happy hour menu was terrible. We could smell it before it hit the table.

I've been coming here sporadically since I turned 21 4 years ago and can't say I've ever been completely impressed with the place, but the early (9PM) drag shows on Friday and Saturday are a nice alternative if you want to go out for a few drinks and entertainment but have to be up early the next day.\n\nThe past few times we've been there have just been terrible. I must say, my boyfriend and I like to gamble for drinks. We're not jerks about it, but if I put $20 in a machine, I generally expect to get at least 1 free drink. The last time we were in it took at least 10 minutes to get a bartender to come over to serve us (on a slow night when he was just wandering around doing nothing). In that time, my boyfriend had lost probably $10 of his $20 that he put in. By the time we ordered our drinks, the bartender immediately informed us that he could comp our drinks if we played 5 credits (they ALWAYS make it a point to tell you that). Ok, I understand that, but more often than not I'd rather lose my money slowly and enjoy the entertainment instead of losing it all in 2 minutes, so I don't mind paying for the beer. However, my boyfriend was playing 5 credits, won a little and made it back up to $30, lost $10 again and decided to cash out at $20 where he started. This is after at least 20 minutes of playing. \n\nThe bartender told us that \""It doesn't work that way\"" and \""you can't just put in $20 and then cash out $20 and expect a comped drink\"". Apparently the only way to get a comped drink is to LOSE all your money...\n\nBesides that, the drag show brings in great guest performers but the regular cast is pretty terrible, ESPECIALLY the host Shawn M. The music isn't terrible and the drinks are cheap, but I wouldn't go if you're not into being treated like dirt by the staff. \n\nPretty much any other option in the Fruit Loop is better than this hell hole. We will never be back.

My first time here at this location. Hannah the front desk personnel checked us in. She and the maintenance guy( should of asked for his name) was all smiles and welcoming. She did informed us upon checking in that the wifi internet is out of order and being worked on. Thank goodness for the business center its huge, clean and well equipped with the latest tech. I was able to print my Shania Twain Tickets yippee!! ( Her show was Amazing). The entertainment room Awesome! We had the room to ourselves its cleaned and well organized with the latest movies DVD selections. I like that the elevators only allow access with room key entry to any floors. We were on the 16th fl. King bed suites/ kitchenette microwave and fridge. Kitchen stocked with utensils, plates, cups and mugs. It came in handy when we had to heat leftovers. Our room was perfect, our stay was excellent all the staff ( except the three concierge personnel ) we encountered did not acknowledge our present with a smile and greetings during our two nights visits. Two of the three concierge carried on with their conversation never once looked to see if any of us who waited in line needed assistance? Overall a great hotel and wonderful friendly staff...

I weep for humanity.\n\nWords like \""horrifying,\"" \""embarrassing,\"" and \""tragic\"" should be used when describing this culinary disaster. Our group of four had to hunt to find anything edible just to get past the meal. \n\nWe could taste the cheapness in the food. It was like the dishes were assembled in another country, frozen, shipped, accidentally thawed, re-frozen and then reheated for the Luxor's unsuspecting dining victims. \n\nThe Luxor should be ashamed and management should be forced to eat here daily.

Saw this place and thought it would be a cool place to kick it. I ordered two Jameson on the rocks, and gave the bartender I think her name was Dee a $100 dollar bill, she then gave me back $9 dollars! She then proceeded to avoid eye contact with me until I got extremely loud over their very loud music and demanded the rest of my money, which she conveniently knew exactly how much of my money was missing. This definitely put me in a bad mood and I left immediately. This is a low place when your bartenders are trying to steal your money! hard times I guess!

Meat jun was good, macaroni salad was nice and creamy, kimchee was on point I love garlic so it was definitely awesome. The garlic chicken was definitely my favorite. The chicken katsu was a bit underwhelming. All in all its definitely better than Ono Hawaiian BBQ.

Average food, overpriced for mediocre qualty, and genius owner would not accept its own promotion card \""Buy one Entree and get another Entree FREE\"" because Linguini with Clans and Spaghetti and Meatballs were not considered Entrees. Because its located close to home, we stop by often. Never again. If you want good Itailam, try Giavonnis, Tesuro, or several more places pretty close by. What a joke.

Move over wagamama this is now my favourite Asian place and even better it's independent - woot!\n\nWhen I saw dumplings, that was it. This was my light meal - yes I'm a sucker for these pork dumplings. I choose the vegetables version too, just to get my greens! Both were tasty, in fact the vegetable ones had a nice kick to them.\n\nI'll defo bring the other half here. no doubt about that. And I'm intrigued to try other dishes other than dumplings!\n\nThe decor is really nice - east meets west. Wooden floors boards and paintings on the wall are simple enough to give it character. The menu is equally as good if not better as there is plenty to choose from. I don't know much a bout Japanese food but this could be an education that starts right here!

The food here was really good and the salsa they brought to the table is fantastic and tastes like it's homemade. If it's not freshly made, it's one of the best canned/jarred salsas I've had here in Vegas. Also, the food came out very quickly.\n\nThe service was impeccable. Our server Dena was amazing; attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. When I go back I will request her. I suggest you do the same.

This is the WORST hotel in Vegas. When they first opened, it was clean, nice and not full of off-the-strip hooligans. My last stay was absolutely terrible. The room wasn't ready until 4pm and they initially stuck me in a room that was vibrating!! I think it was due to its proximity to a huge A/C condensor unit. WTF?!!! I went back to the front desk and asked for another room. And they said I would have to wait again. WTFx2??!!! The front desk people seemed incompetent at best. They finally stuck me in room on the 4th floor instead of an SPG floor and the people in the next room were so loud, I had to complain 3 times the first night to get them to quiet down. Instead of a Westin, it was more like a Best Western. I will never stay at this hotel ever again.

I have been going to D'Vine for years. Its hard to find a good wine bar in Mesa! This place is totally my vibe: awesome selection of wines (that you can buy up front to take home or enjoy while eating dinner), great food - with an ever changing chef's menu, the Bruschettas are amazing, the chocolate cake is to die for, they do live music some of the time, cozy - you can chill on a couch or on the patio by the fire... and they always have new art on the wall for sale by local artists - cool! \n\nI highly recommend D'Vine for a fun date night.

Happy Hour is the way to go or weekend hang out spot. This place has COOL down to an art. \n\nWith the cool vibe and music playing, the service is natural and doesn't miss a beat. Most of the time you have another drink before you realize you should have one. Everyone is on top of it, and other servers will usually bus your table or bring you more drinks. The place has a good teamwork feel to it. \n\nThe food is all great but my favs are: pretzel and cheese, Bruschetta board (any of them) and the flat bread pizzas. I'm sure all of it is good but I'm still stuck on these three.\n\nMake sure you get there before 4pm or you may have to stand for a while, but don't worry it'll be worth the wait.

An amazing view of Pittsburgh? It's true. This was my first visit to Pittsburgh and a client suggested we try Monterey Bay. Located on top of what I guest is the Mount Washington section of Pittsburgh, Monterey Bay is located in what appears to be an older high rise apartment building. At the entrance you take an elevator up to the main dining room on one floor or the bar on another floor or the wine cellar on another floor. The view of the downtown three river section of the city is really quite exceptional, particularly as the sun goes down. By the way the seafood was as good as or better than the view.

We have three favorites for shave ice. Matsumoto on Oahu, JoJo's on Kauai, and Snow Ono in Las Vegas. POG with ice cap and ice cream broke da mouth!\n\n***UPDATE***\nJust got back from the Big Island and Snow Ono is better than Itsu's, if that means anything to anyone. Wife agrees. I gotta get back to Vegas...\n\n***UPDATE / HEART ATTACK!***\nI'm way behind the times and just discovered Sno Ono is no longer in business. After a couple minutes of Googling, I discovered the business was handed over to Oso Ono and has a reputation for putting out the same heaven-sent shave ice! I'm relieved to find I can still get my shave ice fix on the mainland but I'll miss the Sno Ono truck.\n\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz/oso-ono-shave-ice-las-vegas

I went to Pure for an event last May. My favorite spot is the outdoor balcony. I like the fact that I can have fun and not endure all the smoke in the club. Plus, you see the Las Vegas lights...awesome spot.

I wish I could give this place a better rating. I really do. But I HATE it when places like this take advantage of people and charge them RETAIL for a used item. Case in point, they sold my wife the Planet Earth Blu Rays for $31.99 USED when that is what they cost brand new. Not everyone runs around with a smartphone in their face to price compare and places like Zia take full advantage. But will they take the item back? Of course not.\n\nThey do have a great selection but how do you justify charging $10 for a used CD that costs $5-6 brand new at Best Buy or Amazon? \n\nThis place is a rip off just like almost every other second hand place.\n\nNot saying don't go.... but if you do, have your phone with you with some sort of price checking application so you don't get hosed.

I'm not a big fan of tappas places, but this place really blew me away. We came here for a friends bachelorette party and it was all around a great experience. The d\u00e9cor is very dark and chic, the food is delicious, the wait staff is incredibly nice and friendly. The portions were way too small, but then again we were a party of 16 and it's a tappas place so I'm sad that I didn't get to try everything we ordered, but I definitely want to come back and try more of their dishes.

Venezias makes delicious food - that's why I keep going back, and if that was the subject of this review, they would get at least a 4. Unfortunately, this review is the result of the past three to go orders this year being fulfilled incorrectly.\n\nI'm not sure if their employees don't care or maybe some are a part of an illiteracy hiring program, but it's getting to be ridiculous (if it will allow me to attach a picture, I will).\n\nMy most recent order was for a turkey sub on whole wheat, no onions and with a side of italian dressing. When my husband went to pick it up, I asked him to double check that they included the dressing because the last two times they forgot. I'm glad that I did, because it wasn't included (again).\n\nThen, when he got home we discovered that they gave him a turkey on white, with onions and taped to it was a receipt in large print: Italian [dressing], wheat [bread], no onions.\n\nFirst world problems, I know. \""My delicious food isn't what I ordered.\""\n\nI may still order from them, but I do hope in the future they give READING THE ORDER the old college try.

I had a meeting here recently in Scottsdale and needed to provide lunch for over 60 people. I ran into Paradise bakery Caf\u00e9 on a Monday morning at 9 AM asking for 40 sandwiches to be made in one hour. To be honest, I thought they would tell me it wasn't possible given timeframe. I thought they would actually suggest something else like baked goods. Susan, the catering manager, was super-friendly and worked with me quickly to produce the 40 sandwiches with cookies and chips in 1 hours time. I am so Extremely thankful and grateful that she helped save my lunch meeting!!!!! I also had a ciabatta egg sandwich while I was waiting for my sandwiches to be made and it was fabulous!!! And the cookies.... Amaze-ING!

Hard to believe it could get any worse? But under the new ownership there is not enough help so I waited 30 minutes and it was dead.

Had green chile grill at an evening stop by the Four Peaks tasting room, totally by accident. This green chile is awesome -- had a steak-green chile burrito that was super spicy but so tasty, and a quesadilla with nicely grilled chunks of chicken breast, cheese, and onions. This stuff is the real deal, Phoenix. I'm from Tucson, and don't throw around mexican food accolades much, so you can trust in this review. Hunt it down and feel the oh so good green chile burn.

I've been to Lucille's about a half dozen times now. I will never go back. The ribs were dry, tough and barely edible. The brisket dry and tough. It was like the food had been under a warming lamp for hours. The service was mediocre at best. When we complained to the manager, she couldn't have cared less. On the positive side, the beer was cold, at least.

Wish I would've gotten to see the inside. \n\nI got here at 10:55 and the door sign said they opened at 11am so I waited. It was 11:05 still not open so I went to the antique shop across the street Xamelback Antiques (a lot of stuff, cool stuff). I spent about 30 minutes there then went back to Picture The Past now it's 11:42 and still not open. I tried opening the door and the young man inside just stared at me so I walked away and left.

Service is always on point. They're fast, friendly, and funny.\n\nEating here before the Adele concert was a savior because I really didn't feel like eating at a higher end restaurant at Cosmo. Just something easy and nothing formal.\n\nI had their tenderloin rossini which were sliders with tenderloin, foie gras, and mushrooms. Meat was bigger than the buns. Super juicy. And I could taste the foie but, couldn't see it. I was dissappointed with that cause when I'm eating foie, disgusting as it may sound, I like to see the fat coming out of it.\n\nPizza rolls were like those pizza bites but, I'd rather have pizza bites. lol

DO NOT ORDER DELIVERY FROM THIS PLACE !!!!....My delevery took twice as long as they quoted me, the food was cold. I called back and they told me they could get a new order out to me in another 45 minutes..ya right, 45 minutes, I live 5-10 minutes away. I asked for the manager and was told there was no manager on duty and to call back tomorrow. What place does not have a Manager on duty? I have been in the restaurant business for 22 years, having managed most of those. There is always supposed to be a Manager on duty. DO NOT ORDER DELIVERY FROM THIS PLACE !!!!!!

Well worth the wait! Try to go early if you can because they get really busy! Smoked meat sandwich is amazing! So amazing that once you try it you'll never be the same...yes it's that great!

This is a terrific independent hardware store, a rare gem in the world of Home Depot and Lowe's. They have a massive selection of hard-to-find fasteners and bits that no big box retailer could touch, and the staff is friendly and helpful. I just went in there for some obscure parts for a project I was doing and they were able to find me everything I needed for under $20.\n\nKeep up the good work fellas!

The first store of its kind in the US (in Madison, no less!), Vom Fass is a small German-originated boutique offering a wonderful variety of high-end vinegars, oils, spirits, wines and liqueurs. Everything (but the wine and liquers) is stored in cute clay-looking kegs. And the best part? The staff encourages sampling--of anything and everything. \n\nMy sister and I were in on a recent afternoon, and had our own little tasting party... featuring wines from around the US and around the world, followed by thick, tasty-sweet balsamics, and capped with the best oil-vinegar combo I've introduced to my tongue in many a year: their mango vinegar paired with a chili oil. Amazing--my future greens and sauteed veggies salute you, Vom Fass!

I had lunch here with a friend the last time I was in Las Vegas. It didn't open until 4pm, which was weird. The interior was really nice -cold though, which is nice for Vegas, but bring a jacket! We sat in one of the booths -high backs and comfy; very intimate. They also have large community tables with the Habachi grills. The sushi bar was also gorgeous -the whole place is so dark and sexy!\n\nEverything was delicious, this is what we ordered:\n\n911 roll: fire roll (spicy Miki roll) topped w/ crunch (our favorite out of everything we ordered)\n\nJapanese Lasagna roll: crab, avocado, cream cheese, baked w/yum yum sauce\n\n007 roll: Shrimp, Scallop, Miki, Tobiko, Cream Cheese Topped w/ Avo, Albacore. Served with Garlic & Yumyum Sauce\n\nAlbacore white tuna nigiri\n\nMiso soup\n\nDynamite: Baked Scallops, Clam, Crab in Shin's Special Sauce\n\nWatermelon martini -fresh chuck of watermelon; very summer-y taste!\n\nPrices are fair, and the service is great! Next time we might go for the Teppan Grill meal, since they cook it in front of you!

Pros: Relatively Easy access. Open 24x7. Close by to a Chinese Place and Subway if someone in your group doesn't want BWW but wants take-out. \n\nCons: Service. If Makayla is working for carryout you get what you ordered. If not, all bets are off and service can be surly and most often sucks. I prefer to get carryout from here because the recent \""remodel\"" didn't make the place much better. The TV's still suck, the service is usually bad, and the food quality can be hit or miss too. \n\nIn short when someone asks me to go here I whine and groan. Surely out of all the places in Vegas to get food from they could find something else besides this? \n\n2 Stars is all I can give and that's being generous.
