[ "I loved this place when it first opened. Food could not be beat! A co-worker and I would try to make it to here at least twice a month. But for the past year or so, the place has consistently gotten worse. The food was not as good as it once was, the place was not as clean as it used to be and the health ratings were getting worse. My last (and final) outing to here was with my wife because she hadn't been in awhile. When I walked in, I tried to find the health score. I saw it hanging witha 62%. They had placed stands in front of it where it wasn't visible. If they can turn it around, I wouldn't have a problem recommending this place but as it is, I'd pass.", "Pretty good food the steaks were ok pretty tender \nFor a buffett.Lots of different thing stir fry ,mexician,\nSouthern fried chicken,pot roast off the hook.\nWill go back sometime soon", "Baked chicken was dry and there was no lettuce of anykind set out on the salad bar except the premixed ceasar..I am usualy not so disappointed.", "I've been here before, and the place is a disaster. On a normal day, they're barely able to figure out how to function properly. On Thanksgiving, it's basically a refugee camp. They can't get people seated properly; they can't keep food in the buffets; they can't bus tables; they can't keep drinks filled.\n\nI heard one of the staff say they were busier this year than last, but that's not an excuse. They advertise carved turkey, but when they don't have another turkey ready for a half-hour after the last one is carved to the bone, that's bad planning.\n\nIf you have to go out for Thanksgiving, prepare for a nightmare in general, but this place is worse than most, even on normal days. Too bad.", "Not usually a big \"buffet\" person. BUT, there are some days when I just want a little of everything. I honestly have to say that the only time the buffet is any good is when the \"GM\" is there. They have some younger manager who's just lazy and likes to chit chat the whole shift that be works. I am sad to say that the buffet is 50% of The time LOUSY!", "Stay away from this dirty,nasty,messy place! the roast and the steaks were burnt no cheddar biscuits the most filthy salad bar tongs that everyone's touched are laying in the veggies! go to Ryan's! Happy birthday to me! I will never ever return here!", "Absolutely vile. This location was one of the worst I've ever been to. There was human feces on the floor in the male restroom according to my boyfriend, and menstrual blood in the women's restroom all over. Also, neither sink in the men's restroom worked. The food was absolutely repulsive. My 10 year old son, who NEVER complains about food in quality (he's pretty much a garbage disposal) took a bite of their cottage cheese and said it was rancid. The food was of awful quality and none of us ending up finishing our meals. Their ice cream machine was broken, also. This place was over-crowded with loud, obnoxious people and unattended children who pawed at the food using their bare hands. The only compliment I can give is to our waitress. She was a very pleasant, older, Mexican lady whom we very much adored. I hope for better things for her in the future.", "It had been years since i have been here.... It was terrible! Stay away! Cut the crap GC! Get rid of the beans and rice and bring on the meat and potatoes! stay away it was gross and everything was filty", "What a gross franchise restaurant. They need a complete overhaul.", "Envision being served by the Walmart greeter.... I tipped her $20 because i was horrified that someone if her advanced age and obvious grace was waiting tables in a buffet style restaurant. The salad bar was disgusting. Bell peppers were sliced an inch and a half thick with the seeds still attached inside. The tuna salad looked like it was swimming in an ocean and the mystery meat made me want to go eat the diced bell pepper!" ]

[ "As some of you may already know, the DeMun Oyster Bar transformed into what is now called Barrio. Barrio is a change of scenery, which features Mexican, Cuban, and South American dishes. Since I live in the area, I have already been here quite a few times and have sampled a variety of plates. Though there is not a lot of depth to their menu, the items on there are quite delicious. From the items I've eaten so far, there has been a consistency of flavor and originality. You can tell they put their own little twist on the recipes to give your palate something new and exciting to experience. The thing I'm most excited about is finally living near a place I can go to during happy hour to get margaritas and tacos! Though I was sad to hear about the closing of the DeMun Oyster Bar, Barrio is a perfect replacement. The local neighborhood restaurant ambience remains and it's still a great place to meet up with friends for a drink. Open yourself to something new and come give Barrio a try, you'll be glad you did.", "Saturday afternoon. Beautiful outside. Thought I'd catch a glass of wine and lunch. Reincarnated space were the failed DeMun Oyster Bar was located. Quick paint and decor change to a Mexican flair. \nService was poor, menu limited, food not so good. \nA simple salad was worn. Lettuce from a previous day, over dressed and pedestrian. A hunk of plastic in it killed the lunch. Salad credited, signed the bill and left. \nI'll go back when they yet again fail and reinvent. Must be a long lease.", "Went there with group of 8 people. We ordered 11 menu items and 2 of them never came out. Not a good percentage. I have an expectation that I get 100% of what I ordered not 82%. I had a jicama, cucumber, chile salad and it was bland. The chorizo empanadas were okay, but I have had much better empanadas elsewhere.", "As a service industry professional I have annoyingly high standards when I dine out. Like seriously, I hate dining with myself. Barrio knocks it out of the park! From the creativity of the menu, presentation of the dishes, design & feel of the space and supreme levels of hospitality, this is a restaurant that I daydream about returning to.\n\nThe best part by far is the food. FLAVOR FLAVOR FLAVOR. Goodness, that street corn... and dare I say? The best guacamole I have ever had. Ever. Churros are to die for and literally melt in your mouth. Great vegetarian options too.\n\nCocktails were on point. I had the Mexican Coffee; If I didn't want to stay up all night, I could have had 3 more. Tasty. The house Marg was plenty boozy and the perfect balance of tequila & lime. My wife's Paloma was fresh, crisp & went down easy. Our friend had the 'Mule It Over', we all agreed it may have been the best of the bunch.\n\nWe will be looking forward to coming back again and again for date nights and brunch!\n\nGreat addition to the neighborhood! Thank you and well done!", "Loved it! Stopped in for a quick drink & a bite and so glad we did! The food & service was amazing... Omg! Words could not describe how amazing these pork wings are, I could have licked the plate clean with no shame lol Everything came out nice and quick, which was great bc I didn't have a lot of time.. The margaritas were fabulous & stronger than I expected, to which I was pleasantly surprised... Everything was fabulous so one super happy repeat customer here! I will definitely be back when I have more time bc everything I saw coming out of the kitchen was completely drool worthy...", "I have visited Barrio 4 times since the new venue. I have enjoyed each tasty meal and love the new menu. The street corn is awesome and a favorite!!!", "Had an excellent meal on opening night! The variety of tacos was excellent and quite tasty. The chile relleno was delicious! Cocktails were on point and creative. Do not miss the pickled veggies appetizer plate!", "Tacos tacos tacos!! I've been a on mad hunt for delicious street-style tacos and these are incredible! Came in for late night cravings they're open to 1:30am almost everyday! (except Sunday which is still midnight) I got one each taco and all were delicious! The tacos come with a green salsa that is approachable not too hot I'm sure intentionally reserved as to not overwhelm the majority of their clientele. The assortment of pickle that also come with the tacos are quite spicy just as a heads up but I loved them! As for beverages they have a great selection of mezcal and tequila as well as a full bar to accommodate all your favorite cocktails. Which brings me to how much I love their cocktails, they have something for everyone ranging from classics to the adventurous. I had an off menu Manhattan that utilized a tequila infused with chiles which was incredible, one the more memorable manhattans I've had to date. Can't wait to go back, they have breakfast available at 7am everyday and lunch after, these guys are ready to feed you and want you to enjoy yourself you can't go wrong here. I'll update as I continue to go back to give you feedback on the rest of the menu.", "Service was absolutely awful and it's a sin to call what they serve \"Mexican food\". \n\nNo one greeted us when we entered. After standing there for about 30 seconds the bartender yelled, \"Yeah?!\", like he was confused why we were there. The attitude was similar among the other staff.\n\nWhen we explained we were there to eat food, the response was, \"We're really busy now. It's gonna be a while. All these people at the bar are waiting for tables.\"\n\n\"Do you know how long?\", I replied. \n\nThe response was, \"No.\"\n\nNo. That's my answer to whether I will ever return or recommend this place to someone else.", "Decided to stop in for a late Mother's Day celebration, the drinks and food were amazing and creative! The chili lime wings were a great start to our meal and honestly wouldn't mind getting them as my meal next time! They were so tender and flavorful all in a bite size portion! Each person in our party shared our entrees, we choose the Quesadilla, Chili Reno's, and Tacos! And I can't forget the best part the STREET CORN is out of this world! It has great texture from crushed corn tortilla chips and a secret sauce underneath!!! An absolute must have!!! The service was friendly and the patio open and inviting! Will definitely be stopping in here again!" ]

[ "Was in the area today and remembered today was Crave's grand opening ! Popped in and was surprised to see only 1 person in there.. I suppose it was close to closing time though... The layout of it is very cute ! First thing I noticed was that these are a tad cheaper then other places.. I remember going to Fuss and it was $8 something for 2.. Here I got 2 regular size ($2.95ea) and two minis ($1.75ea) . And it came to $9 something. Anyways ! Being a hater of the buttermilk I stuck with my best friend cream cheese icing.. I got the Dark Angel ( Chocolate cake w/ cream cheese icing) in a regular and a Velvet Elvis (Red velvet w cream cheese icing) in mini. First bite of the dark angel, it was a flavor explosion! The cake melted in my mouth along with the EXTREMELY sweet icing. Now my teeth didn't hate me for it surprisingly ! But the sweetness is a lot to take in. It was pretty hard to eat the whole thing at once so I only took two bites so I could try the other. Velvet elvis was a different experience on its own. The only way I can describe the taste was that I was eating the sun covered in lolipops. No joke. And with being the mini it was just perfect for sweetness. No overdose, no shaking while driving etc etc. So for those of you with a super sweet tooth I would suggest this place ! And with those of you that don't.. stick to the minis ! They're awesome !", "Ooh! I love cupcakes! For anyone looking beyond a traditional cake, cupcakes would offer a modern alternative. Stack cupcakes on towering tiers and treat guests to a token of thank-yous. Choose delicious cupcakes for a variety of events -- weddings, baptisms, corporate functions, bachlorette parties, baby showers or anything else.\n\nCraves' based in Calgary and I'm so glad they've expanded to Edmonton! They make freshly baked cupcakes every morning; whoppie pies, cakes, cookies and 13 variety of cupcakes, from reg. size or mini(s):\n\n1. Va Va Vanila\n2. Nutty Over Chocolate\n3. Lemon-Lime Twist\n4. Peppy Pattie\n5. A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts (Vanilla)\n6. A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts (Chocolate)\n7. Crave-O-Licious\n8. The Princess (Vanilla)\n9. The Princess (Chocolate)\n10. Dirty Blonde\n11. Just Chocolate\n12. Red Velvet Elvis\n13. Dark Angel\n\n If you go to their website, there should be a recipe for the best Fudgey Brownie. Ummm...Crave-O-Licious!", "I used a coupon for this place and got a 12 pack of mini cupcakes. They were very delicious! My favorites were the Red Velvet Elvis and the Princess Chocolate. The frosting on top is the best I have had anywhere! I just wish they weren't so expensive.", "Best cupcakes in town!!! I am a fan of the red velvet, but obviously, so is everyone else because they are usually sold out of red velvet by the time I get there in the late afternoon.\nThe service is polite and efficient, the staff very friendly & helpful.\nA definite 4 stars from me because their cupcakes are always fresh and delicious!!", "Yummy, yummy, yummy!!! What else can I say about Crave! To be honest I am not a huge desert fan and find most cupcakes leave me feeling a little ill due too the sweetness but surprisingly and very happily I did not get that at all with Crave. I was able to satisfy my \"crave\"ing for something sweet without the what was I thinking feeling. Mind you I did stick to the mini cupcakes, baby steps right. I love love their peppermint icing cupcake, definitely my favorite!", "I was thrilled when I heard Crave was coming to Edmonton. I used to live in Calgary and Crave was the only cupcake place I knew, so coming to Edmonton I was excited that there are so many cupcake places... but honestly not a single one even comes close to Crave!\n\nThe cupcakes are moist, the icing is sweet and delicious (I do understand how some find it too sweet, though) and the prices are very reasonable. They offer mini-cupcakes as well if you just need a small bite of something to feed your cravings.\n\nBest cupcakes I've found!", "As someone who used to live five minutes away from the original Crave Cupcakes location in the Kensington district of Calgary I was SO EXCITED to see that Crave has expanded to Edmonton.\n\nNow, the cupcakes are fairly steep in price but boy are they delicious. The Red Velvet Elvis cupcake is to die for. Even better, unlike the Calgary locations that always run out of the Red Velvet 2-3 hours after opening, they always have stock at the Edmonton location.\n\nIf you're looking to indulge yourself, go to Crave, you wont regret it (well, you might 2 hours afterwards...haha)", "While you have to search long and hard to find gourmet chocolate truffles on Whyte Ave, there are not one, not two, but three cupcake bakeries. And their names are all verbs (though admittedly, \"flirt\" and \"fuss\" also function as nouns). \n\nWith three cupcake bakeries serving nearly identical frosting vessels in a three block radius, where you buy your cupcakes ultimately has to do with the precise location when the craving hits.\n\nWhile located in the same strip mall area as Shoppers Drug Mart, Planet Organic, and Save On Foods, Crave makes up for the pedestrian nature of the surrounding stores with a highly stylized logo, and a highly stylized interior, meant to conjure up images of childhood tea parties, or childhood princess parties, or any childhood parties full of wholesome girlishness.\n\nAnd while the cupcakes look fantastic at Crave, they also taste pretty good. One issue with Victoria's Pink Sugar Cupcakery was its tendency to serve stale cupcakes. This does not happen at Crave.\n\nI purchased two cupcakes: Red Velvet Cupcake - which is exactly what you think it is - a Red-coloured chocolate cake with cream cheese icing - and another cupcake - a chocolate cupcake with blue-coloured chocolate buttercream icing.\n\nWhile the cakes were airy and moist, the icing is really the star of the show at Crave - both with appearance and flavour.", "I tried a \"Nutty Over Chocolate\" and a \"Red Velvet Elvis\" cupcake. At $2.95/cupcake, I was hoping that I'd find something exceptional that I wouldn't be able to create on my own. The cupcakes here are good but average.", "I love baking and appreciate a nicely baked cake. If I can't whip up my own creation I head to Crave. We order these for work now after trying both Flirt and Fuss for special events. Crave is more pricey, but if you are going to eat cake you want to eat GOOD cake. \n\nThe cake is awesome and the icing is addicting. My favourite is the red velvet. One cupcake is truly a treat. If you go here eat your cupcake with a fork so you can get the perfect cake to icing ratio!" ]

[ "Sounds like you guys had a busy opening weekend and actually ran out of food. Well today, day 3 of operation, was back at full service so I decided to give it a try. Ordered the combo platter (ribs, pulled pork, chicken, brisket, and 2 sides) and a Caesar salad for dinner to-go. The ribs and pulled pork were tasty, as were the baked beans. But the brisket and chicken were so dry you could barely chew them. No sauce on them either, which was disappointing for a place with \"secret sauce\" in the name. And the mac n' cheese was completely flavorless and mushy. The salad had either been dressed hours ahead of time or was sitting around on top of something hot because the lettuce was all completely wilted. So with less than half the food being enjoyable, it's highly unlikely we will be going back. I understand management was taking notes on ways to improve based on opening weekend's performance and I hope they will take these points into consideration.", "The food is great! The dinning room looks fab!! The owners are top notch! I just didn't like having to go up to the counter to order my food or refill my drink during dinner. Then I didn't know if I needed to tip?", "TERRIBLE....long wait for take out order, completely unorganized, everyone looks confused. The food was horrible no taste at all. The pulled pork Mac and cheese had no flavor at all. The pulled pork was blah, well the beans were right out of the can no additional spices added. This is bbq spot how do you screw up pulled pork and beans! Ordered a vegan burger also and let's just say save your money . How do you over cook a vegan burger? The best factors of this place were the French fries and their ability to open a can! Will not be returning, and will surely let my friend and family no it's not worth the stop .", "Great great food, deep fried corn is great. Never been to a BBQ place that has a wash sink in the eating area, what a great touch for washing all that sauce off my hands.", "Everything was smooth and delicious. I ordered the grilled cheese with pulled pork and my father-in-law had the brisket cheese steak along with a side of Mac and cheese and corn bites. All of it was to die for. They are a new business and working out the bugs. We waited about 15 minutes and they where busy. Looking forward to going back.", "Did a take out of the combo platter then went back the next day and got the Brisket Burger. Not going to write a long review just gonna say I'm going back soon and frequently!!!!", "This place nails it every time, and the owner's customer service is awesome. Brand new business that is learning and improving every day. Make sure you check them out. Thanks for another great meal!\n\nTownship Line Brisket Cheese Steak - shredded beef brisket smothered in house made cheese sauce topped with caramel used onions and served on an Italian long roll. \n\nFried Pickle Chips - crunchy dill pickle slices breaded and fried with a side of chipotle dip. \n\nFried Sweet Corn Nuggets - yumm!", "Awesome experience! The township line brisket was delicious, as was the Mac and cheese. I thought everything on the menu looked great and I can't wait to come back and try more! Wilson's secret sauce and Philly Grit on the table was a great touch - I highly recommend!", "Very nice first visit to this new BBQ place close to home. It is on the spot of one of my favorite crab houses that unfortunately went out of business. I love bbq and my first meal here was very good so welcome to the neighborhood. \n This area can use a good bbq spot and hopefully this will be it. It is BYOB which is excellent. They have only been open for about a week or so and some of the prior reviews were not so good. I think they might want to give this place another try. Every restaurant has opening kinks and my meal today may be an indication that they are working them out. \n I had the Wilson's Brisket Burger which was 1/2 lb of grilled Black Angus beef which was perfectly cooked to my medium well request. It was topped with smoked shredded brisket,candied bacon chunks and sautéed red onions. It also had a bit of cheese sauce. I would liked to have had a bit more of the sauce. I added some of the Wilson's Special Sauce which was in a bottle on the table. They also had a bottle of Philly Rub which I put on the beans. \n My side of beans was good. It had a mix of beans and a tangy bbq sauce. The service was friendly but they only had one person working the room and she was also working the register. The place was not busy when I went so I do not know how one person could handle a full room. \n It is close to my house so I will return to try some of the other goodies on the menu.", "Horrible service and horrible food not professional poorly ran and have not have any clue what they are doing I recommend not going there the way it's ran it will be out of business in a year" ]

[ "Great new place in Pheasant Valley shopping center. Been there 3 times. Had pizza, sandwiches and shrimp special. Awesome place. Will be back again.", "2 Wednesdays ago i had a decent amount of family over from out of town. I was told by my close friend that a new place called \"Jerseys\" had just opened up on Buck Road and would be perfect for takeout. Considering there were many children, we thought it would be a better option to get a few large pies, rather than a huge complicated order. What did we get? None other than jerseys \"Famous\" tomato pies. However, I will tell you this .... there is nothing special about the tomato pies that we consumed. The tomato on the pie was rather dry, and even the kids said it tasted \"funny\". For a place that praises their tomato pie and even puts it in their name, really needs a reality check. Also to add, the man on the phone seemed to be very rude and when we arrived to pick it up, he had an indifferent attitude that any one in the food business shouldn't have. Overall, The experience was bad enough to the point that i doubt i would ever order pizza from there again. I told my close friend about my awful pickup experience and then he had the audacity to tell me to try to tell me to try their dining room and eat in one night and maybe I would have a different opinion. I agreed and took my wife out to dinner their a week later. Already having a bad opinion on this place, I didnt expect anything good and my expectations were correct! Our server took 25 minutes to get to us and when she did she didnt introduce her name, ask us if we wanted to hear specials, she just assumed all we wanted was waters! Not really expecting a good meal, we were surprised when we tasted the garlic knots that actually were pretty good! We both ordered chicken parm meals that included a Cesar salad and side of penne with red sauce. After tasting their god awful pizza, I didnt think anything else could be worse. Boy were we wrong. The Chicken was cold and the sauce tasted like a mixture of ragu and ripe tomatoes. Of course the server didnt even ask us if we wanted any coffee or desert but thats okay because by that point we just wanted to pay and leave. After paying the bill, I went to the bathroom and what I saw was Gross! I looked through the window, and I saw that same server use her own hands WITHOUT GLOVES to make the salads. THATS THE SALAD ME AND MY WIFE ATE. I promise I will never come back to this place. Both of my experiences were awful and the food disappointed me both times!", "Horrible and overpriced. The wings were soggy and didn't come with celery or blue cheese. The mozzarella sticks were soggy. The \"taco pizza\" was a disgusting mess. Cheese whiz, barely any meat, olives, and unripe tomatoes. The delivery guy must be a wannabe NASCAR driver because half the greasy pizza toppings slid off and shifted in the 5 minute drive to get to my house. I can't really describe how disappointing our simple order was. Biggest waste of forty dollars I've ever spent. This place sucks.", "The end of March is my birthday and another family members, so we decided to get the family together and check out the new local restaurant. There were 9 adults and 2 children with us and they were very accommodating to us all! The wait staff was very attentive throughout the whole meal and even gave us some pointers on what was good to order. We shared a bunch of the appetizers and everything seemed nice and fresh... and yummy! My favorite app was the eggplant capris. For dinner, like we always do, we decided to order a few different dinners and share everything. We had a huge Caesar salad, hot wings and Gnocchi. Everything tasted great, especially the wings!! We have searched all over bucks county for good wings and this place is our new favorite pizza spot to get wings. I like them meaty, but cooked well, and these were perfect!! My 12 year old loved the Chicken Caesar salad the best and I agreed the grilled chicken really made the salad better. My one year old was a little fussy in her high chair and one of the waiters offered to hold her so I could eat. I thought that was very nice, even though I declined. After dinner, we brought our own cake with us and they sang happy birthday with the whole family and then sliced it up and packaged the remaining. I really had a nice experience for my birthday and will DEFINITLEY be ordering delivery or dining in again. Maybe even tonight!", "I have to say I really really wanted this to be a good review, and have tried a good few items on the menu because I figured that everyone has a bad day once in a while. Unfortunately, I can't do it. \n\nI will say the tomato pie and the vegetarian rolotini have been the highlights. Both are very good. The owner is great. Seems like a nice guy, wants to do well.\n\nThe bad? Most of the rest of the food we tried. The wraps were soggy and I couldn't get through the buffalo chicken wrap I had. Please make this a fried chicken wrap. It would solve its issues. Just don't fry it to death as you did the chicken parm, or over cook it as you did the grilled salmon. We like the mozz sticks, but I'm willing to be they're frozen - we just happen to like those as they're not greasy. \n\nThe concept is good. You get a lot of food (actually probably too much). People would pay the same for less volume but very well cooked food. \n\nIf you're looking for a good tomato pie, this could be your place, other than that it depends on what you get.", "I have tried a lot of pizzas, and the sauce used at this restaurant is fantastic! The perfect blend of sweetness and tang! That alone keeps me coming back! \n\nUnlike cheap pizza restaurants, the cheese seems to be good quality...Been there a few times, even decided to meet someone for a first date there since I knew it was \"good\" food and wouldn't give me the feeling \"ugh i ate too much pizza\" after 2 slices hehe\n\nI've tried the tomato pie, Brooklyn, white, and margarita... Haven't been disappointed yet. My friends and I have \"girls\" dinner night out... Feels like we are at the Jersey shore when we get a side of crinkle cut fries! Some of them got the Italian dishes and they looked great too! We all live in central jersey and we are surrounded by low quality pizzerias on practically every block.. Which makes me wish this place was closer! \n\nDelicious food, Friendly staff and the place is always clean.", "Have been here multiple times now. Have gotten everything from wraps to pasta (great diavlo sauce) to pizza. I'm a huge fan of the tomato pie. The servings are huge, and all for a great price. Their homemade pesto is very tasty. Not quite sure where the previous bad reviews come from, never had anything soggy - especially the wings. We have always gotten large meaty wings that have a good crisp to them.\nAt the end of the day, I wouldn't read into the negative reviews too much - give this place a try. It's worth it.", "I was really impressed!! the calamari balsamico was delicious (however, I would love someone to invent a container that keeps calamari crisp when ordering out), and the eggplant parm sandwich was great (the bread was so yummy). Unfortunately my order was placed in a box that had no support and as I walked up to my front door....my entire order fell to the floor. Vodka rigatoni everywhere...when i called to tell them of my plight...the owner immediately got on the phone and asked what he could do to make it all OK. I asked for another order of vodka rigatoni....lo and behold , within 10 minutes it arrived at my door. I will definitely be a return customer, not only was the food great but the customer service even better.", "Great pizza! Friendly staff, and speedy home delivery! Been there dozens of times and always have a great experience!!", "I'm surprised at some of the reviews. I live in NJ and work near this place. I used to ALWAYS wait until I'm back over the bridge before getting Italian (especially tomato pie). No offense PA, but you guys have nothing on us when it comes to Italian food.\n\nAnyway, I wouldn't have even noticed this place if the name (Jersey's) didn't jump out at me. I figured if they are claiming NJ I should at least give them a shot.\n\nThe tomato pie here is seriously amazing. I have ordered a bunch of times and they are always cooked right (I always ask for a bit well-done, Trenton style!)\n\nKeep in mind I'm a huge pizza snob, DeLorenzo's is right around the corner from my house. I haven't tried much else besides their pies and a few appetizers, but so far I've been very satisfied." ]

[ "Extremely happy to see a poke joint near me. This place used to be Sushi Wave.\n\nTheir poke bowls/burritos are a bit pricey though. As always, prices depend on the number of protein scoops you want:\n1 scoop - $8.95\n2 scoops - $10.95\n3 scoops - $12.95\nThey also charge $1 for some of the extra toppings: masago (fish eggs), seaweed salad, and avocado. Other options for an extra $1 is brown rice instead of white, and soy paper wrap instead of seaweed for your burrito.\n\nLove how they have eel as one of their proteins and a variety of sauces to choose from. They also have appetizers and boba drinks (mainly smoothies/slushes). \n\nTheir seafood and veggies tasted fresh, however I was a bit disappointed on their Thai Tea and boba. I ordered their \"plain\" Thai Tea with boba thinking it was their tea drink as they do have it on their menu for $2.95. However, I was given a Thai Tea \"Slush\" and was charged $4.95. I realized the mistake when the server brought it out and I checked my receipt, so I didn't bother addressing it. The drink was rather sweet for my liking and the boba was sadly tasteless.\n\nAll in all, definitely coming back for their food.", "Wow! This place is great. Whenever I'm in Orlando I have a poké spot that I have to visit. I'm glad to finally have something comparable close to home. The ingredients are quality and the prices are right on par with other poké restaurants. The proteins tasted fresh and the sauces were all great, I had double salmon and tuna with spicy mayo and poké spice sauce. Don't be scared by the dollar upcharge for avacado, they definitely give you your dollar worth! It's a laid back spot, and the staff were all friendly. I will be back for sure, and I look forward to giving the boba a try too.", "I love Poké Island! The price is on point, staff is friendly, and the food is yummy & instagram worthy. We are so excited to have a good poke sushi place in the area. This is the kind of place I can foresee many date nights-- both my boyfriend and I could never tire of a good poke bowl.", "My sushi bowl was very delightful. Very much filled with fish and veggies. The staff is very nice as well. You cannot go wrong here .", "This little place is the best! Seafood awesome all the ingredients are fresh. Staff couldn't be any nicer plus a great value.

The flavor and freshness is their obvious priority cause it's spot on. Try it and your hooked.", "Nice new Poke spot. We love Poke, and have been waiting for it to catch on in Fl. Now they are popping up everywhere. Yay! \nGreat Poke bowls. The Poke burrito was not our favorite ,the wrap around it was super hard to bite thru. Not sure what was up w that... will go back for another bowl!", "Excellent sushi burritos. And you can't beat the price . For the cost of one sushi roll you can get a whole sushi burrito or poke bowl. We did a sushi burrito with tempura shrimp . It was amazing . The owner is super friendly and he restaurant is super clean . My kids have been bugging me to go back . Will definitely be back soon" ]

[ "I love this place! The burgers are delicious! My favorite is the BBQ Burger, but the double cheeseburger is equally terrific. The burgers are flatter than normal ones and crispy around the edges and they taste so fresh. They also have good, friendly and fast customer service. The only thing I don't love is the fries. I've been there 3 times so far and ordered fries each time. The first time I ordered chili cheese fries and they weren't so good. The second time I ordered just cheese fries and they were a little better but there wasn't enough cheese and it seemed like they just melted a slice on top as opposed to having a pan of hot melted cheese ready to ladle on top. The last time I had regular plain fries and they very good and very crispy. So....Get the plain. Overall terrific.", "No sure why I should like over cooked flatten meat with more outside the bun than in. It's a choice you will make when you order just a burger.\nFries are hand cut and good. Shakes really good.\nStill out on the burger hope you like it better than I . Lots of choices in town so I will keep searching.", "This burger was amazing. Perfectly cooked and tasty! They have great sauce which I got on the side for my fries too! The French fries are thinner and very crispy! Friendly service too.", "I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place! My friend and I decided to pop in here on a whim - we were studying at the Starbucks next door and were hungrrrrry. Who could say no to burgers and shakes!? We definitely couldn't and good thing we didn't! \n\nEverything was decently priced (not as cheap as McDonalds, but much cheaper than Shake Shack or Hopdoddy) and we left completely satisfied. I love their cheeseburgers! They're more \"steakburger\" style (so if you have ever had Steak 'n' Shake, it's very similiar!) and the fries are thin and crispy. Their chili fries are delish too! But oh my gosh, the chocolate shake. It was hands down one of the best milkshakes I have ever had. I dream about their chocolate milkshakes. I thank the Lord every day that Hugh Baby's chocolate milkshakes exist. Do yourself a favor and order one IMMEDIATELY. You won't regret it, I promise.", "I never thought I would see some one complain about a burger overflowing from the bun. The taste of Hugh Babys goes all the way back 50 plus years when meat had real taste and substance. It's cooked well done and crispy around the edges on a proper grill, greasy spoon style, there is no \"rare\" here. If you like your burgers super pretentious, filled with odd flavors, served on brioche buns to big to hold, with a wine menu on the side, this is not your place!", "This place is flying in under the radar right now, it opened 4 months ago and its literally one of the best cheese burgers I've eaten. I tried this place three days ago and I've been back every day since. Highly suggest you check this place out. Great service and clean!", "This place is amazing. It's part of the Martin's BBQ family so the BBQ is really good but the burgers are why I go there. They are great and In the style of that famous burger place from California with the secret menu. I like HB's comeback sauce better than the other place's spread. The hand cut fries are also outstanding. I've been to both locations in Nashville and even visited their West Virginia location on campus at UWV. I'm a true fan and feel this is the best kept secret in Nashville.", "Milkshake is great! Fries need to be cooked more-floppy not crisp but tasty. (Better if crispy)\nCheeseburger very good.", "Milkshake is great! Tastes like a chocolate malt. \nFries need to be cooked more-floppy not crisp but tasty. (Better if crispy)\nCheeseburger very good. Cooked fresh while I waited.", "Love Hugh Baby and hope they keep expanding. A modern recreation of an old school burger joint that focuses on fresh ingredients and awesome flavors. The measure of a good burger is if the last bite is still enjoyable even as the fries and burger get cold. Hugh Baby passes that test with flying colors. After eating here I left satisfied for hours, with that happy food experience glow. I would seriously consider changing jobs to be closer to Hugh Baby." ]

The veggies were fresh too so I have no complaints about this place.", "If you love sandwiches, you'll love Purebread Deli. If you are a dog-lover, you'll love Purebread Deli. How can anyone not love an adorable dog-themed sandwich shop? You'll find really interesting and creative sandwich ingredients, which make it much tastier than the usual blah boring sub/hoagie place. I can't wait until I go back to try a different sandwich and their soup.", "This is a super fun Panera-like establishment where everything is dog themed- what's not to love? Each of the sandwiches are named after dog breeds and there are dog photographs adorning the walls. There are plenty of vegetarian options that can easily be made vegan. Service was quick despite it being lunch hour, and the food hit the spot. The only disappointment we had is that there are no locations closer to us!", "I enjoy occasional visits to this establishment either early in the mornings or for some lunches. I find that this location is the most inviting of metro Wilmington Purebreads, possibly because of its interior and exterior seating and that it's adjacent to a wooded area in bucolic Greenville.\n\nTheir muffins are always fresh and a highlight, although I wonder if they really need to cost $2.25. I've found that their drinks can often overdo the flavor, as with a recent vanilla latte frappe that quickly turned into a frozen drippy mess, and a flavored latte that wore its taste too strong.\n\nHowever, their combined sandwich and salad, or soup and salad, orders offer extremely generous portions for modest prices - much better than the equivalent at Panera Bread. It's very easy to make two meals out of them!", "I know this place must get compared to Panera all the time, but that's the best way I can describe it. I went on a PACKED Saturday (and I mean packed) and service was surprisingly fast. I also appreciate how friendly the workers were, because every time I go to Panera I get my head bitten off. \n\nPurebread is fast food without feeling like fast food. Reliable for a quick lunch stop while running your Saturday errands in Greenville.\n\nAlso, their muffins are AMAZING.", "I love this place, has nothing to do with the dog theme! The sandwiches are fantastic, the staff are always helpful and pleasant and the muffins make the meal. Recommend the Jack Russel, but no peppercorn dressing, garlic mayo instead. So, never mind about the Jack Russel, eat the Boxer!!!!!! Roast Beast with jalapeños and some sort of horsey sauce", "I love this place! They offer a wide variety of sandwiches and combinations. Their baked goods are delicious, as are their meal deals and coffees. The staff is always pleasant and friendly, and the food is made in an extremely timely manner. I go here all the time for lunch. I highly recommend going here!", "SUCH a great sandwich shop. I loved the diverse menu (which allows you to be healthy or indulgent), super-fresh ingredients, great people, SPOTLESS dining area and restroom, and a non-stop parade of adorable dog pictures on the monitor. Plus, they have unsweetened iced green tea, which makes me very happy.\n\nWe ordered:\nDOBERMAN: Smoked salmon on bagel with cream cheese, capers and tomatoes (hold the onion and extra capers for my daughter). Simple, delicious, and enough for breakfast leftovers.\n\nCOCKER SPANIEL: Avocado/cucumber based veggie sandwich on delicious multigrain bread. I skipped the veggie cream cheese and absolutely devoured it. For such an healthful sandwich, this was perfectly balanced in flavor and texture.\n\nHOUND DOG: Grilled panini with peanut butter, honey, banana and cinnamon. Crazy good, as you would expect, but not overloaded or superheavy like you might.\n\nEverything came with carrot sticks or chips\n\nWe have a lot of sandwich shops in the Bay Area, but I wish I could relocate Purebread here.", "Read good reviews, stopped in here about 20 minutes before close and was glad we did. The staff was a bit checked out by this time as it was so close to closing but nonetheless we were pleasantly surprised by the menu and LOVED the atmosphere (dog lovers). I had a chicken, bacon and ranch sandwhich with potato soup, it was awesome. Will be back.", "This place gets better with each visit. Been here about 8 times since my FIRST visit and review and its just as good if not better. The mushroom soup is unreal. Everything is so fresh, the staff is almost always on point, and its clean.

This bakery is mecca for those who love their sweets, a shrine to the pastries that have realised their full potential and the very place all diabetics see in their nightmares.", "This is my all time favorite bakery. They make the best german chocolate cake as well as chocolate dipped pretzels. There is always a variety of choices to select from if you need a last minute cake for an event that you didn't have an opportunity to call ahead and special order. They make the cutest birthday cakes with exact replicas of cartoon characters drawn in icing. I have never been disappointed with anything I have ever tasted from this bakery and I have been a customer for 5 years.", "This place is nice, but It isn't my L&M Bakery, by far. Located in Marlton, NJ, nice plaza, but most of baked goods are weighed in. I have frequent there occasionally for holidays or so.but its nice, but not like variety L& M has. Sure they are great , but Hands down, stick with my local one in Delran / Riverside,NJ. \nw", "I actually did a taste test between Randolph's and L&M's white donuts in a doctor's office in Delran where all of the staff were big L&M lovers. I got 6 from each store and took them in early in the morning before hours with some coffee and asked them to tell me which one they liked better. Funny, but the people who told me that L&M had the best white cream picked Randolph's. The rest of the staff, Most picked Randolph's by a large majority. Just the facts here.", "I needed a bakery where I could walk-in, pick a cake, pay and go. I searched and found Randolph's on the net. I called and spoke to a very helpful young man who said yes they can help me. I had one celebration at noon and one that evening. I stopped in the morning and picked-up the cake. Everyone absolutely loved this vanilla confection with a simple butter cream frost. It was so good, I stopped there again in the afternoon and bought another for that evenings celebration! Will definitely go again for cakes, cookies, breads, donuts and other pastries!", "Have only tried their cannolis and their small sugar cookies. The cannolis were delicious but the sugar cookies were kind of hard. They has a wide selection of cupcakes and cakes and a great bakery for the area so we will definitely be back to try more.

Not only was it gorgeous in presentation but I was delicious to eat! The cake is moist and tasty! I wish there were more cake flavors to choose from but still a fantastic cake!

At the time of the order I only gave a description of what I wanted and a few pics from Pinterest to help her design it and with little direction this was truly an amazing cake!!!

The price wasn't even that bad with delivery!", "Just picked up an m&m cookie and apple pie for a quick low blood sugar replacement before an appointment nearby.

When I got to Randolph's on the morning of the party, my 1/2 sheet cake was ready however, they had \"run out of boxes!\". My car was full of gifts, folding chairs needed for the party, which was quite a distance away from the bakery, and my octogenarian mother. The staff wanted to put the 1/2 sheet cake in a large box sized for a full sheet. When I explained that I didn't have room for the huge box in my car, nor did I want to drive the long distance with my cake sliding around in a too-big box, I was told unapologetically, \"this is all we have\". Needless to say I left without the cake. Thanks Randolph's for ruining the day for me. Wouldn't give this place another shot if it was the last bakery in the county." ]

[ "My impression of Original Joe's was that it was like an upscale Boston Pizza with a very dominant pub style. The outside of the restaurant fits well with 124th Street, because it's an older building decked out in layers of mortar and bricks. \n\nThe inside of Original Joe's is very dim and laid-back like a pub, but also has a touch of classiness, especially with its dark wood tables and chairs.\n\nI was apprehensive of the menu, because with many of the dishes, you get to choose two side-orders. I've not had good experience with restaurants that do this, but I was not disappointed here. One of my side dishes was sauteed veggies that tasted awesome and fresh and healthy too! My disappointment was that the menu didn't have too many chicken dishes. There was a lot of beef burgers and steaks; however, they also offer many salads, pizza, and pasta. I ended up having a chicken wrap that I thoroughly enjoyed.\n\nOriginal Joe's definitely delivers good food and a good atmosphere for chatting and having a good time. Also, I'm not a drinker, but I did notice they had an impressive bar and an extensive drink menu. It's like being in a pub, but with better drinks and better food.", "I've spent many a Saturday afternoon on the Original Joe's patio. There's a pretty little water fountain that trickles against one wall, and the western exposure holds the promise of a full afternoon of sunning. I typically order beer here. They have such a wide selection of international brews, and it comes perfectly chilled. What keeps me coming back to Joe's? Well, at first it was the steak sandwich, heaped in sauteed mushrooms on garlic toast. They do it to perfection. But, over time I realized it was the side dishes: you get to choose two from a long list. Options are exciting. I always went for the mango pasta salad and garlic mashed potatoes and gravy, that is, until I discovered the sweet potato fries and their heavenly dill dip. There was no going back. Now it's all about the sweet little yam fries. Sometimes I forget the meat altogether. They have great calamari and veggie wraps as well. The place gets pretty busy, but I've never had to wait in a line. We've always just grabbed a seat at the bar. Original Joe's is among my favourite casual dining restaurants in the city.", "I used to be a big fan of Original Joe's because of the exciting atmosphere, great beer (many of the choices available on tap are exclusive to the restaurant), and large portions of delicious food. I would come here to share chicken fingers and beer. The piles of fries are something to behold, especially with the dill dip - likely loaded with calories but oh so flavourful! Other favourites of mine included the steak sandwich, fish and chips, and the salmon dinner with veggies and garlic mashed potatoes. You get to choose two side dishes with most of the meals, and usually I would go for the fries with either coleslaw or the mango pasta salad -- and sometimes leave the mango pasta salad for lunch the next day! The side dishes are meals in themselves. What annoys me about Original Joe's is the fact they discontinued takeout, as a member of my household found out rather ungraciously when he went to pick up supper one evening. After being a regular customer here for a number of years he was simply dismissed, and letters to management went unanswered. Note to all the business owners out there - customers, especially regulars, should be treated with respect, especially in today's economy.", "I went here for the first time just as it was getting too cold to have their doors open. This trapped a ton of fly's inside. My girlfriend looked over at the guy across from us and he had 4 fly's just on his pant leg of his jeans. They were everywhere. I could only imagine how many were in the kitchen. And no one seemed to care but us.\n\nDespite the fly situation, their beer was really good, for a not so good price. The pulled pork sandwich was great and I love that you get two sides with it. I tried the mango pasta salad and it was awesome.\n\nThe one thing that really pissed me off is why the steak sandwich costs $13.99 (8oz) and is an extra $1 for onions OR mushrooms. Shouldn't that come on a steak sandwich? So if i wanted both, that's $2 extra? And If I don't its just bread and steak? Pretty lame. Especially for $6 a pint of their own brand of beer.\n\nWe went back to this restaurant twice more without the fly problem and had a good time.", "I love Original Joe's 102nd avenue location. It is close to Royal Alberta museum, High Street and downtown. You can really make a day out of visiting the museum, dining at Original Joe's and taking a stroll down 124th street.\nOriginal Joe's is one of the best places to visit if you and your friends are looking for great food and fun atmosphere. This restaurant is always packed with young, noisy diners, thus the place is not good for romantic dates. Plus, the food is rather simple and calls for a tall glass of cold beer and a large, fun company of friends to share all the food with.\nThe menu consists of mostly all-American food such as chicken wings, burgers and fries as well as occasional quesadilla, jambalaya and Asian dishes in addition to pizzas and pastas. I love Thai chicken salad which is the main reason I come to Original Joe's. The size of the burgers is impressive, and they are a great deal at $11. \nIn addition to its great burgers, Original Joe's is famous for its great beer selection. There are about 20 varieties with Big Rock Grasshopper being one of my favorites.", "Any place that has Big Rock Lime on tap is awesome in my books. Original Joe's is an Alberta owned restaurant chain that has delicious pub/american style food and tons and tons of beer. Its a great place to go watch the game or get together with a group of people. I really enjoy the massive Red Tractor Nachos as well as the deliciously hot chicken wings. The restaurant is usually busy but I have never had a problem getting a table. Its a good laid back atmosphere where the draft flows very freely! You are also bound to find a good number of Oiler fans here on any given game day.", "While the menu is fairly standard, the food is excellent.\n\nOriginal Joe's makes you feel like it is a bunch of restaurants mixed into one. It has some elements of a pub with a great selection of beer on tap. It has a pool table that reminds you of a sports bar, but it's still a restaurant that could bring a date or husband/wife to for nice evening. Don't get me wrong it's not some beautiful restaurant, more of a sports lounge than anything, but it is set up nicely and allows for a cozy feeling.\n\nThe atmosphere is warm and the staff is welcoming. It gets really busy on weekends so be warned, you may have to wait a bit before they can make room for you.", "Pretty standard menu with standard prices! However, food is delicious and is a must to try!", "I think this is the best OJ's in Edmonton.\n\nMy friends and I used to go here all the time when I worked nearby. The staff got to know us, and even offered us a \"service\" discount. The place can get pretty packed, but the servers are always on top of things. The food is also really good.\n\nPortion sizes are massive and the food is fresh. I love love love their dill dip with fries.\n\nThis location has a couple pool tables as well as a nice deck. I like how big the restaurant is. It feels very spacious, but is awesome for people watching. If you manage to get the big booth on the top level with your back facing the door, you will enjoy hours of people watching.\n\nAlso try their brunch on Sunday mornings -- yum yum!", "It's a chain. That means the menu is reviewed once a year if you're lucky and the essential difference between the food here and a Moxy's, a Kelseys or a Chilis is how well are the staff following directions. There is very little actual cooking going on.\n\nFood here, however, is well put together and generally well prepared. In a city where there are a lot of affordable chef owned places, there really isn't any reason to go to a chain for the food, but the choices here while chain-standard (the nacho dish, the burger, the steak option, the fish option, the pasta option) are pretty good with generous portions and good pricing.\n\nBasically, you go to these places for the atmosphere, drinks and being out with friends. Food is more of a convenience. What I like about Original Joe's is that they have an open plan and manage a pubby feel without the cramped claustrophobic feeling that many \"Irish\" pubs have. They have a good selection of draught beers with some \"micro-brews\" that are exclusive to the chain. I appreciate that they have a good selection of ales. \n\nWhat makes me a fan is that in the Summer, I like a Pimms and Ginger. This is a relatively popular Summer drink in England, but no one here seems to know what it is. I was in the mood so I asked at OJ's and not only did they have Pimm's No 1 Cup behind the bar, the bartender knew how to make it to the point that he correctly garnished it with a slice of cucumber. If you know how to do that, you've been TRAINED as a bartender, not just know how to pull a beer tap and set up a boilermaker. So, kudos to a chain that still hires professional bartenders." ]

I was really excited when this restaurant started advertising on Instagram. I enjoyed these so much that I am changing my ritual from the chicken wings that I normally get before flying to nachos!!!! The place is small and was busy when I went on a Sunday. Short wait and the owner was there working. Can't wait until I land on Monday, grabbing nachos before I head back home. I live about 45 mins from the restaurant. I had the messy ones with chicken, beef and shrimp with chili and cheese. Chips were so fresh too! If you are over that way and you like nachos stop and and grab some. So worth the wait.", "Pros: \nGreat flavor, seasoned well (Louisiana residents will love the flavor)\nStorage containers good ideal/good quality \nFriendly staff\nLemonade/Tea awesome a little to sweet\n\n\n\nCons: \nPortion size $8 nacho with Shrimp\n $2 additional topping Sausage \n $2 small Tea/Lemonade\nWait time 45-50 mins But the food was hot and fresh\n \nOverall this was some good nachos.

I gotta stop by every time I come to New Orleans", "So, overall the nachos were really good but the experience it self wasn't the best. Trying to find the location was hard since there's no sign you can see from the street. We walked in and the people before us said they've been waiting an hour on food. We waited maybe 45 mins-1 hr. There was only 1 person working by he way and he had maybe 5-6 orders before us. We did see a friendly critter while waiting on our food I really wish we would've gotten a better experience but at least I tried it.", "I finally got a chance to make it to Sho Notchos, and I must, it's worth the visit. From the customer service, to the nachos, to the messy tea. Enjoyed it!", "I have wanted to try this place ever since I followed the owner on Instagram. True fan. So I took the long journey to try the nachos. So far I have been twice. The staff was friendly and quick. I've never waited longer than 10 mins to get my food. The first time I went they did not have the lasagna nachos, so I tried the beef nachos. They were okay.....but salty as hell. I could only eat about half before I just had to stop. I also got the messy tea and that was way too sweet. That I had to cut with water when I got home. The second time I went I finally got the lasagna nachos and they were perfect. Nicely seasoned and not too salty, but I had to pass on the tea. As for the price, I think the lasagna nachos were over priced. I paid $10.98 for meat and cheese sauce. I understand higher prices for the ones that include shrimp, but not for meat sauce. Overall, I would go back when I want a treat but you definitely can't eat this everyday or even once a week until they ease up on the salt and sugar.", "Restaurant smelled like mildew when I walked in. Even still, I said I'd try it because it is black owned. The food and smell mixture had me gagging. To add to it, I waited and the place was empty. Can't see where the food is prepared and by the smell of it, that's strategic. Overpriced nachos because the owner is a social media \"celebrity\". I tried it to support but I won't go back and I'm not going to give a good review just because the owner is funny.", "Very nice establishment! We went for lunch on a Wednesday so I think the special was 20% off. I ordered the #5 Kash Kombo in the regular size which was a great size. This comes with nachos with crawfish tails, sausage, shrimp, and topped with jalapeños and served over Doritos. I would order it again with out the sausage even though the sausage was good, they left way too much grease for me. The cheese isn't all that great but the toppings add flavor to the cheese. The hot dog was good (you can't go wrong with a hot dog). Now the MESSY TEA was delicious! It's not regular sweet tea, which I hate, it more like a sweet tea punch like they serve at weddings lol I didn't see price for refills but even if you had to pay for another cup it was only $3 for a large. I wanted to ask for a refill but they were so backed up. Idk how busy they are usually but the crowd was steadily coming in and it was the day after Mardi Gras. The food is made to order and the place is small, so keep that in mind. There is tables to eat at but if it's crowded people will be all around you when you're eating. The place is nicely decorated and I think the selfie mirror was a great touch! They have a gender neutral restroom. They have a really good playlist as well!!!\nI recommend this place and I will definitely be back when I'm in the area! I wish they had a bigger size Messy Tea!", "I was 1 of the 10 ppl that entered & left the restaurant tonight 3/30\nI entered around 830pm only to find a closed sign on the door. The hours on Instagram says -12pm-12am.......\nAnother customer was standing outside & my Bf asked if they were closed . \nShe responded they were trying to catch up on orders. We went in just to see others sitting at tables waiting. The young man & woman that were behind the counter disappeared to the back . \nI waited at the counter and still no one. After standing at the counter I finally went to sit at a table. \nI started talking to others waiting, one couple had been waiting on food since 7pm. I still decided to stay & wait to place an order since I had taken the drive from Gentilly. And because after seeing all the IG picture It had to be worth the wait !!! \nSo we waited and waited and then the clock struck 9:20pm & everyone had had enough & decided to ask for there $$$ back . \nAt one point the young lady walked from the back out the door with money in her hands as if she needed to go to the store ! That created a commotion from everyone because at this point if you are out of something just let us know !!!! \nAnyways .....\nMy Bf & I still was unable to place an order. We left very disappointed and HUNGRY ! \nI drove all the way from Gentilly to Kenner to support the business & I was very disappointed with the customer service. I still would like to try these nachos. So hopefully a few things change to better handle a late night rush .", "I absolutely LOVE nachos so I have high expectations when it comes to my food.

I love their usage of sourdough bread on their sandwiches here. It is deliciously crispy and buttery. I also enjoy all their sides but their sweet potato fries are my favorite. Service was excellent and multiple people came by and asked if we wanted refills and how our food was. Everything was kept clean and as soon as something got dirty it was cleaned almost immediately.

It took seven minutes just to be noticed and that was 4 minutes too long for the couple that came in behind us, they left. The cashiers require more training, upselling not down. The kitchen staff need to remember they are not in their own kitchen, but at their place of employment. Managers need to strap some steel to their spines and not just look the other way when the employees forget they are not at home.

Their signature burgers come with caramelized onions, mayo, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles. You can add cheese.

It came with mayonnaise. One hour later I am so thirsty from the salt on the burger. My wife said her shake was good.", "Great restaurant and prompt professional service. Period! NEVER HAD A BAD BITE. Love the menu and this place, great to see such an awesome burger joint come south. Welcome and Thank you Habit!", "It is an expensive burger joint. Our burger was greasy. It made the bun so soggy you couldn't eat it. The sweet potato fries was over cooked and hard. I had the seasonal salad which was attractive but didn't have much taste. We had 3 items and it cost $24. All that and we even had to bus our own table. We won't go back. Wish them luck." ]

The food was out of this world good. The staff was attentive we even met the owner. Hope this place sticks around", "Excellent food and service!! Great to have another choice for dining nearby. The menu seems limited, for now, but there seemed to be a good amount of dine in and take out, so hopefully word will travel and they will grow! The shrimp/mofongo was delicious ...crisp outside, tender inside and the cajun sauce the shrimp was in was very flavorful without being too spicy. My friend had the chicken breast with plantains and red beans and loved it. (and he's Puerto Rican :-) We'll be back!", "Good was great! Portions were also. \nFriendly staff! Support local businesses!!", "Amazing delicious quality and very well priced. WEPAA salad was amazing!!!!! From out of town but if I lived here, I would come all the time.", "I was so excited to see a Puerto Rican place open nearby that I could not wait to try it. I know good Rican food...and unfortunately this was not it. I wanted to give it 2.5 stars because the place seemed clean and the servers were friendly, but not halves on yelp, so 3 it is. \n\nThis place has been open only about 2 weeks so I expect and hope that it will get better. The wait was pretty long for our food, but again I expected that with it being a new place and them getting into their groove. I ordered the stuffed chicken breast (stuffed with sweet plantains and cheese) with rice and beans. The chicken was good, but could have used some more seasoning. It was however the best part of the meal. The rice was bland and too al dente, the beans needed a lot of seasoning too. My fiancée had the mofongo with churrasco (skirt steak). They didn't ask how we wanted the steak cooked so it came out almost well done and with -again - barely enough flavor. It was also a very small piece of meat (maybe 3 x 5), but I guess for $13.99 it's not too bad. The mofongo was just okay - definitely could have benefited from more seasoning and garlic and DEFINITELY needed a sauce with it. Overall - I was not happy with the food at all and it was not worth the wait. I wouldn't rush back anytime soon. Maybe we will try it again in a few months - if it's still there.", "Great service and food was very tasty. The place is very small and extremely busy (we went on a Sunday evening), so there might be a wait. They desperately need to expand and have more tables. Overall, great dining experience.", "This restaurant is going to be BIG for our community. The food is freshly prepared and is very authentic. I cannot wait to go back!", "New Restaurant Puerto Rico food. Churrasco was great! Original and great for Happy Hour, Lunch or Dinner. It has an outside terrace. Great music! Hopefully they maintain it authentic and create happy hour specials!", "My experience was outstanding. Excellent food just like back home. Magnificent service. A little piece of Puerto Rico.

[ "I always feel weird reviewing fast food places. Because, you pretty much know what you're getting food-wise, so the rating tends to be on service and cleanliness.\n\nThis review tries to cover everything. \n\nTHE GOOD:\nPopeyes makes awesome chicken. Moist, flavorful, crispy. \n\nService: brand new store, happy, young, eager employees on the front line. \n\nTHE BAD:\nThe price: expensive and the portions are miniscule. I got a family meal for 6. The two \"large sides\" were much smaller than expected, and our mac n cheese wasn't even full! \nThe 1st time I came, I grabbed their \"1/4 lb!\" Popcorn shrimp deal. There was only a handful of shrimp. \n\nService: the workers were cheerful and awesome, but management was not friendly and seemed irritated with my happy worker guy who asked (for me) if they had paper menus you take with us. Also: They still aren't taking American Express. I realize this is a technical issue, not their fault, but when my happy worker guy asked when they would be accepting it, the manager brushed me off, blamed amex and didn't apologize. \n\nThe gravy is gross. And they put it on top of the potatoes... not on the side. \n\nMac n cheese is noodles covered in processed cheese. Nothing special.\n\nTAKEAWAY:\nDon't come here without a coupon. \nManagers need to match their employees enthusiasm.\nEat the chicken, skip the traditional sides.", "I was so excited since I've never had it because the other locations are far from me, and man was I disappointed. The prices were a little higher than most places but not too bad. The food was crap, the mac and cheese was the absolute worst! So nasty like I would not recommend at all, Fry's has better. The $4 box was very small portion, which you can't really be upset since the price was cheap. We also got the #2 with the 2 spicy pieces of chicken and for $6.99 they give you 2 small pieces of chicken and like 6 to 7 fries. Waste of money, won't be back.", "I don't typically review fast food places but when I noticed this place only had 2 not so good reviews I had to step in and help! \nThis location has only been open for a few months so I'll summarize all 3 visits. The first visit was during their first week open so it was super busy and the service was a little slow, but it's to be expected. The second time we went through the drive through and we had fast, friendly service. The most recent time was last night and same with the previous 2 visits, the employees were extremely helpful and friendly. Our food all 3 times was hot and fresh and exactly what we ordered. I can't say enough about this place and the staff. Excellent addition to the area, although not healthy I know. But everything in moderation, eat at Popeye's!", "Y'all think I'm joking but I had a Popeyes party when I found out this location was opening. This place is always popping and I secretly hope it's a sign that the property value in the area will increase. I ordered 22 mixed mild and spicy wings and thighs plus 4 large sides for about $60. Love that chicken at Popeye's!\n\nChicken was excellent quality as always - crispy, hot and well-seasoned. Service was super friendly and somehow even seemed enthusiastic. I was in and out within maybe 7 minutes Unfortunately they got my order wrong. Why would I waste my choices on two large sides of just rice? There are so many better sides on the menu.\n\nIn the end, it wasn't a huge issue, but I hope it doesn't happen again. I love Popeyes and will definitely be back!", "Been to this place many times great customer service friendly environment, clean place, very organized, great taste..", "Popeyes is better than KFC any day of the week. It actually has flavor.\n\nChicken is consistently prepared well, and is seasoned perfectly. I personally like spicey. French fries are always good.\n\nAnd in the rare event there are leftovers, they always makes for a nice lunch the next day.\n\nVisits will be ongoing.", "My first time ever eating at Popeyes\nNot a fan at all.\nordered #11 fish and shrimp received 2 really small pieces of fish mostly batter and the popcorn shrimp and most of the shrimp was balls of deep fried batter that didn't contain shrimp at all \nMaybe I should have tried the chicken", "2nd time I've been here during a busy lunch flow, these employees work through the lunch rush very well. When entering it is always fresh and clean inside with a worker maintaining the dining area always. When a line forms the head cashier gets multiple registers going quickly. Chicken and sides are warm and taste very good.", "I think this is a great addition to our community. It always tastes great and the workers are always quick and friendly. It is also always clean inside as well. They hand out Mardi grad beads to the kids as well. I like their regular chicken and the spicy. Their biscuits are really good too. They have a lot of sauce options as well to dunk your food in. I liked their sweet tea too.", "Today I finally convinced my adult daughter to try the shrimp po boy at Popeyes that I've had there several times. Lo and behold today's sandwich was horrible, the shrimp were over cooked and only tasted like over fried batter, no shrimp flavor at all. I hope this is not the normal now as I'd still like to have a good shrimp po boy. I told one of the workers so that they could correct this and was told that they always have problems with the shrimp. SMH in disappointment." ]

Great job Ingrid developing this - open more please and I will get annual pass!", "This is such a cool place to come and relax before a flight. Everything is included and the staff Latasha, Leslie and Ariel are absolutely AMAZING!!! If you are are in the St. Louis airport you have to stop in!!!! Great Job Ingrid this is an absolute success!!!!", "Outstanding team. This was an awesome stop before our flight. Brandi and team provided excellent service.", "At the end of a work trip where literally everything that could go wrong did go wrong, I found myself hungry, tired, and with several hours to kill in St Louis airport. I am so grateful I stumbled into Wingtips! Within 5 minutes, Morgan had me settled into a comfy chair with a cup of tea and my devices charging. Within 15 minutes I had a full plate of breakfast and a bloody mary in front of me. They kept me fed and hydrated for my entire layover, and I can't even tell you how nice it was to have access to a clean, private bathroom after a series of the worst travel days of my life. \n\nI opted to zone out with netflix and a book instead of doing work while I was there, but I definitely took note of the conference room and various kinds of work stations that were available. There's also a departures board right in there so you can monitor your flight. The kitchen did a great job of honoring my dietary needs requests, and the food was far healthier than most of what you find in airports. A lot of the beverages and snacks are self-service (coffee/tea, munchies, sodas, etc.) but they also make dishes to order and there is a full bar. All the food and a decent selection of beers, wines, and well drinks are included with your day pass.\n\nEveryone who I interacted with at Wingtips STL was so kind and thoughtful. They checked in with me regularly but didn't pester me at all. Brandi and Morgan especially went above and beyond to help me reset and get ready for my last long flight home. But truly everyone there was friendly, calm, and relaxed... and just made me feel so much better in a truly frustrating situation.\n\nIt's a little tough to find this gem, tucked around the corner and off the main stretch near gate E29, but totally worth it to seek it out. I definitely got my money's worth in food and drinks alone, but the quiet place to relax and excellent service was priceless!", "Okay so this is only the second airport lounge I've been to, but I am really impressed with this place. The staff is really friendly and attentive. I also am here on a Wednesday morning which probably isn't the busiest time. However they have made to order food which is so awesome! \n\nI got the egg souffle. Here's the thing, they are tiny. Just be aware of that. I would order two or three next time. But they were hot and delicious. I also got a bagel with cream cheese. Standard stuff. The coffee machine was excellent. You can get a cappichino, latte, espresso, and more! I was impressed. \n\nIt's super clean and probably the nicest bathroom I have EVER been to inside of an airport. I was wildly impressed with the cleanliness and just the beauty of the bathroom. There are no showers but not an issue for me this time. \n\nIt's unlimited food and drinks. There is also someone cleaning everything all the time so you know this place is fresh. Lots of seating and even a cool conference room area. \n\nIt's $38 for a four hour pass. Not bad at all. Better then the more expensive lounge I went to in Orlando that was a dump. \n\nI would come back here again in a heart beat! Lots of places to charge and super fast wifi, what more could you want!?", "First timers and overall the best experience ever. I travel for work all the time and the staff was absolutely amazing. I can't thank them enough for the experience and the memories. Big thank you too Ariel (kitchen), Laureen (MOD), Johnny (cleaner) and the best hosts Latasha and Janotta. Literally every staff member helped us. I will definitely be ruturning. Thank you Wings Tip for the superb time. \nXoxo\nLisa Chau 720-298-9867", "I had a very long layover and needed a place to work and get out of the hustle of the airport itself. Price was reasonable. Food was delicious service was excellent and I had the space and quietness to get my project that I needed to finish done. I would recommend this lounge for longer layovers worth every penny!!!!", "Only giving it 3 stars because Tasha the hostess was so nice and sweet!! The manager turned out to be the bartender and she was awful!! She forgot to order our food and the bar was out of almost everything & got no apologies!! I wrote into the managers boss and got no reply!! Will NOT go back!!", "Pros: complementary food & drinks, free WiFi, outlets, comfortable sofas\n\nCons: very few seats offer privacy, free buffet limited, views not to the tarmac\n\nYou might be thinking \"wow, $38 for a day-pass is pretty steep\", and I agree with 90% of the time. But let's break it down: you get food and drinks (liquor, beer, wine, coffee, soda), free WiFi connection, outlets, and plenty of surface space if you need to get work done. Say you stay around the terminal: 4 bucks for a coffee, maybe twenty for eating, you don't have WiFi for your laptop unless you pay. Suddenly paying for the lounge doesn't sound so bad, does it? Then factor in how fee places around the terminal give you table space to work.\n\nLet me be clear: the food selection in the lounge is not going to get a Michelin Star, and you are expected to pay for the better brands of liquor, beer and wine. But if you're going to be at the terminal for more than 2 hours, trust me, you really want to pay to sit at the lounge.\n\nI'm giving it 4/5 because the glass wall is not facing the tarmac, and I love staring at planes come and go when I'm at airports!" ]

[ "Stopped in on our way home from Madeira Beach area. We saw the sign and the name and were intrigued. I couldn't locate any reviews on YELP or elsewhere but quickly figured out why as they had just recently changed their name. Same family ownership as explained on their menu just rebranding type of thing. \n\nWe bellied up to the bar and ordered a Guinness and a Reef Donkey. It was Wednesday at maybe 6 pm. Our beers were under $10 total. Must have been happy hour pricing? We looked at each other and said well we gotta come back here again! $10 minimum CC order also posted on the wall. \n\nTheir food menu is extensive. Taco day, etc.... And this place was hopping busy. Full of older patrons mostly. It is kid friendly as they serve a lot of food. He was pretty happy to be in the bar as he was squawking a lot. Lol. Good that they can bring their kid and enjoy. Not so good when you'd rather have it quiet. But, that wouldn't have been the case on this evening because the loudest, drunkest 70 something lady was sitting at the bar. \n\nSo, when you see an older crowd don't assume it's going to be quiet, as I did. But we enjoyed our beer. Th bartender's were all great. The kitchen staff asked us about our motorcycles. And it was nice enough we would definitely return. The place is also huge and we could have escaped the drunken sailor talking trash but we stuck it out. \n\nWe would return. We would stay awhile. We would watch the football game or whatever on their televisions. We loved it. AND, no smoking inside. Winner Winner! Wish it was closer to our house. So, if you're in the area stop in. Whether its for food, a beer or a pop. Its a great place.", "So I've been coming to Indian Rocks for the last 10+ years and have been coming to this pub that entire time. They previously were called 'Mickey Quinns' but nothing has changed besides the name. This is a fun bar to go and hang out at, eat some greasy food, and enjoy a brew. They usually have some kind of drink deal, for example last night was a $4 beach whiskey or lime drop shot. They have some of the tastiest wings I've ever had. Everything is made to order and comes out really hot. I guarantee you can't go wrong with your food choice. We tried the shrimp basket, fish n' chips, and the medium wings with their fuego sauce --be warned this sauce is not for the faint of heart, it earned its name rightfully . All the food we ordered was delicious. \n\nI love the atmosphere of this bar, the staff is super friendly and there's plenty to do. There are two dart boards and also a ping pong table in a further part of the bar. They have live music, I think usually on the weekends. I would say it's more kid friendly during the day, but there were families there on a Friday night so that's up to you and what you're feeling.There are plenty of tv's that are usually playing sports and some kind of entertainment channel.\n\n If you're staying near by come down to this pub and you'll definitely have a good time", "So I am going to try my best to give this a pass and comeback another time when it isn't St. Patty's Day. \n\nSo the place was crowded both inside and out. My brother in law and I where looking for a place to eat while cruising down the strip. We could not find an available table inside and from the look of things servers outside weren't taking any food orders. So we found two bar chairs brought them to the bar and began to order two beers. Wait wait wait. No chairs at the bar, we were told by an employee behind the bar. We asked why not and he replied, \" because it interferes with the flow of people coming up to order drinks\". And then he left. We asked the female bartender , well where do we eat? She said \" I don't know ??? We were like what do you mean you don't know? She looked confused ‍. So we finished our beers and waited for an available table. 15 minutes pass and not one person sitting at the bar top tables had any type of food in front of them, not one. Instead they had drinks. We were told by management that these tables where for customers who wanted to eat food. This was definitely poor management by the staff. Yes I know it's a drinking holiday, but damn show a little interest in allowing customers who do want to eat an opportunity to do so. Nevertheless we left and did find an amazing pizza place down the road Original Pizza that I would highly recommended. \n\nHopefully my next visit here will be better as I can tell it's a pretty cool place, but lacks in management and service on my first visit.", "This was our favorite every day stop while on vacation.

We also had the Briggite cocktail and the Sweet Caroline. Loved them both. \n\nFor food we did the shrimp with fried green tomatoes appetizer.

I was full and still put it all down. Couldn't waste a bit. Now, my friend got the shrimp and gris-gris grits. I was a little jelly after trying hers.

Can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu! The gizzards and the chicken and dumplings were unreal!", "For a restaurant that's less than two weeks old they are doing really well. Oysters were fried to perfection and I loved the shrimp and grits. My only complaint was wanting more grits. The stuffed crab missed the mark. I tasted more breading than seafood. I'd return again just for the chocolate cheese cake which tasted more like a rich mousse than cheesecake. Our server was excellent, attentive and helpful. The only hiccup was that the hostess gave us lunch menus which we ordered from so we had some sticker shock when the check arrived.", "Amazingly good food. What you want and expect from a NOLA Native. Oyster BLT is literal perfection. Sweet and tangy tomato marmalade, fatty and flavorful pork belly, and oysters fried to perfection. Oyster poboy was great as well, Cajun caviar, buttermilk ranch, and arugula. Fries were generous and delicious. Portions and flavors makes everything worth the price. \n\nWatching Chef Cook in his zone, making sure every dish that goes out is top notch and up to his standards, just makes the whole experience even better. Open kitchen is super inviting and it's always fun watching everyone at work. Service was great, wasn't pushy, kept up on refills, very prompt and polite. \n\nDefinitely going to be a new favorite and will be back again and again!o" ]

It's a family business, i'm sure things will be more organized. I've tried almost all their pastries here today. It's good, but not excellent. Some of you might find it funky. It's not a franchise. They don't have much of varieties as in NYC. No bubble tea. They do have good teas. Hope they will add more stuff later on.", "The Foundry is a new Taiwanese bakery and coffee shop that just opened in Maryland Heights. Their most popular item is the Taiwanese Bolo Bun, but they also have a fantastic variety of other sweet buns such as the Taro Bun and the Crispy Orange Bun which are perfect for a quick breakfast bite or a desert. I'd personally recommend the Crispy Orange Bun, which has the perfect combination of sweetness, tangy flavor, and the flakiness from a croissant.\n\nThe customer service here is amazing. We were immediately greeted by the owners and staff and were offered samples of tea and bread. The Foundry has an overall relaxed and comfortable vibe and I will definitely be coming back!", "Dope new Taiwanese bakery + coffeeshop here in St. Louis (best city)! I honestly like this place better than most places I've been to in LA and SF. The crispy orange bun was sooo yummy! The barista came over and gave us free samples of their oolong tea w/ honey boba which hit the spot. I'll definitely be back to try out their breads (like black walnut sourdough and chocolate cherry) and fruit teas (they have an avocado milk tea whaaaat)", "I cannot contain my excitement for The Foundry any longer! The Foundry is a bakery that makes fantastic breads and pastries, some but not all are traditional Asian or have Asian influences/twists/ inspiration. I am extremely impressed with their operations and their offerings so far. \n\nI've been to the bakery a few times already since their grand opening just last week. I've had just about everything that was available for sale at each time of visit (they sell out of certain goodies fast). \n\nLet's start off with their trademark sourdough breads: The Foundry sells whole loaves of sourdough breads of various flavors, all made with fresh and natural ingredients. So far, I've had both the chocolate cherry (cocoa powder, chocolate chips, cherries) and the umami (miso, shiitake, green onions). The chocolate cherry is my personal favorite so far - moist and just a little bit sweet, with chunks of tart cherries - I've been eating this as is and a little warmed up as a morning treat or midday sweet. The umami sourdough is probably the most interesting take on a traditionally western bread. The miso/shiitake combo flavor is very subtle but tasty. I was told that there is a lot of excitement for their longan walnut bread, which i haven't seen for sale yet, likely due to seasonal availability. They also have other flavors such as the black walnut, I have yet to try this as well. \n\nBuns, pineapple cake, other pastries: YES! I am addicted to their buns. They sell the bolo baos which are buns with a sweet topping/crust at the top. This is a classic Chinese bun great for breakfast, snack, and dessert. They also make other buns with other fillings such as taro, which is my personal favorite so far. The Foundry's rendition of these buns jumped out to me immediately because their buns are not overly sweet like other traditional Asian bakeries....and more importantly, they use REAL ingredients! The taro filling is real taro, not artificial flavoring. The buns have a slight tart aftertaste which I'm addicted to because it's a perfect balance when combined with the sweet fillings. I don't feel guilty finishing a whole bun in say 2 minutes. Finally, the pineapple cake (more like shortbread) is a classic/the most well known Taiwanese dessert. I'm not Taiwanese, but my husband is, and we've had our share of pineapple tarts all over Taiwan....and The Foundry makes a great one. The shortbread outer layer is extremely delicate and thin, and the pineapple filling inside tastes fresh and sweet, not sweet as in it's full of added sugar, but sweet like the pineapples they sourced were super sweet. Before I get too long winded and sound overly fangirly.....in short, get their buns and pineapple cakes. \n\nDrinks: The coffee and tea menu is limited, but it's because they strive to do it right. No powders/artificial stuff here. All of their drinks are made with natural ingredients. I absolutely love their green tea latte - it is absolutely delicious. The baristas are skilled and friendly. Just make sure to be patient - take your time here and enjoy their handcrafted drinks.\n\nThey are still in their first or second week of operations. They sell out of their most popular items fast! Be there early if you want to nab some bolo baos or their more popular sourdoughs. Also, expect additional items added to their offerings as they mature.", "I honestly wanted to like this place and wish them success, as I'm aware that the young couple who own this place are brand new to the business, but they really need to learn how to run a bakery, and learn that quickly, or else I'm afraid they might not stay in business very long.\n\nAll other Asian bakeries in town are located close to Asian grocery stores and restaurants. The Foundry is inconveniently located in the midst of auto repairs, small corporations, and a children hospital; their customer base (presumably Asian Americans) would need to really go out of the way to patronize them. And since they sell desserts, breads, and drinks but not lunch items like sandwiches, they are not effectively attracting workers who seek lunch in the area.\n\nBut that's not the worst part. Their bakery items are good, though not great. Tried their taro bun (above average) and pineapple shortbread (definitely made of real pineapple as I got a mouthful of chewy fibers). The milk tea tasted oily. Prices are all right. But you simply can't run a bakery with most of the shelves being empty! And I'm disregarding their absolutely chaotic opening day; I went there THREE times on that day and left empty-handed. I went there last week, which had already been several weeks since they opened, and there was still only one type of \"pastry\" (pineapple shortbread), two types of buns, and one loaf of bread (not one type, but one LOAF) on the shelves. I can understand the owners probably wanted to provide the freshest items to their customers, and I saw them running constantly between the counter and the ovens. And the 3 stars are for their efforts; otherwise, I would have given them just 1 star. But seriously if they don't take care of their baking capacity, I'm afraid they might not survive past next year. And I truly hope I am wrong about that.", "Very unique and wide variety of baked goods, while still boasting high quality on almost all of their products. Their bread is freshly made and is full of flavor. \n\nWith an interesting range and different flavors of tea as well, combined with the high quality toppings that could be added provides some of the best tea I've had in St. Louis. \n\nThe customer service is extremely welcoming and friendly. They allowed us to try samples of the different flavors of tea so we would be satisfied with what we buy.", "This is going to be one of my favorite Asian bakeries that have some great drinks I can't get anywhere else! For starters, the music selection was great and not too loud/too soft, the room temperature was not too cold/too warm, and the tables are large enough for me to bring my work and sit comfortably. They have accessible outlets too. Secondly, my favorites are the drink options - matcha tea, with boba addons, and the fruit milk was delicious! The next drink I want to try is the morning mojito. The pastries are also very delectable and satisfies my traditional Asian pastry needs. I love the innovative flavor mixes and twists in the breads that are made - the umami bread is awesome! Anyway, this place is worth a try and if you've never had it, I guarantee you will like it! Ray is great!", "Very relaxing, the pastries are delicious, and the tea latte is wonderful. The only thing I wish is that there were couches and more of a comfortability level here. Feels more like a restaurant than a coffee house. However that won't stop me from coming!!", "Awesome service! The atmosphere is very welcoming and the layout is chill. Had the Strawberry Matcha Latte to drink. The naisu milk bun was by far my favorite of the buns. Highly recommend!", "Love this place. I love Naisu milk bun奶酥包, Taro Bun香芋包, pineapple gem 鳳梨酥 and Japanese roasted milk tea! The cashier told me that they always buy the best ingredients to make their products. The milk tea is the best in town so far. They also have two bubbles for you to choose( one is like a regular black sugar bubble, and one is more like jelly. ) As the person said- this bakery uses their hearts to make the best bakery for customers ." ]

This one checks all of the boxes and I will be back for sure.", "Welcome back Jacob!! \nYour food is absolutely amazing! We had the short rib which melts in your mouth; the pork belly with habanero jelly, and of course the mussels. Wow! Can't wait to try everything else on the menu ! \nFor those of you that are going for the first time...please keep in mind that this is a NEW restaurant. Be patient because the food is absolutely worth any temporary growing pains. I recommend calling ahead for reservations. This is a small intimate place. Do yourself a favor and give the place a try.

We'll definitely be back!", "Love this new restaurant! Was here while in town visiting a friend. I'm a vegetarian, and can't always find tasty things to eat when eating out. This was an exception! I had the New Age pizza with the white sauce (minus the turkey), and they were able to accommodate me with a gluten-free crust. (Yeah, I'm a picky eater). My friend had the the Brie Chicken Sandwich. Yum! Everything was so good and the service was excellent. Highly recommend to anyone in the area. We will be back the next time I'm in town!", "My wife found this place on Yelp as she was doing a search for someplace new. We came here about 12:30pm on a Friday for lunch. We found out they opened to the public 1.5 hours earlier and today is their grand opening. They previously had a soft opening for family, friends and media.\n\nIt is not very large inside but they have about 10 to 12 tables or so. There were a couple of tables seated and we did not see a sign so we picked the table and had a seat. The interior decor has a mid-century modern feel to it.\n\nWe were immediately brought menus and our drink orders were taken and we perused the menu. They offer a wide variety of options but appear to lean towards Italian. They have burgers, pizzas, pasta, small plates, salads and sandwiches.\n\nWe decided to try the garlic bread appetizer. My wife ordered the BBQ bacon cheeseburger with a side salad and I ordered the meatball sandwich with tomato bisque. The garlic bread arrived and was delicious, I intended to save some for the soup but we devoured it before our meals arrived. \n\nOur server Chris appeared with our sandwich and burger and wow we were very impressed with the presentation and it didn't stop there, they were both amazing! We both really enjoyed the soup and salad as well. \n\nChris took very good care of us. It also felt as though the chef, Jacob has a good local following. We anticipate you may need to make reservations in the future!\n\nChris also told us that they would be serving a brunch menu as well and are only closed on Tuesday's. \n\nGreat addition to Reno and we can't wait to come back!", "Tiny restaurant with huge flavors! We shared meatballs, pork loin and agnilotti and all were wonderful.", "The food here was DELICIOUS. I refrained from photographs, but the presentation was beautiful and the price was reasonable for the quality of food. \nWe had the pork belly appetizer, the roasted beet salad, the braised short rib and the Crème brûlée to finish. Every item was stellar. I'd love to pick one to highlight but honestly everything not only looked beautiful but tasted fantastic. \nGreat new restaurant, the service was wonderful. Very nice people, cool ambience and decor. I will for sure be back.", "Love this place! Local and ALL homemade foods: pizzas, sandwiches, small plates that aren't so small, pastas, wine and beer. So so good", "I am giving 4 stars. But am being a bit generous only because there's a lot of potential here but they really need to get it together. Our dinner took just short of 2 hours which don't get me wrong I love to relax and enjoy my time but that was a bit much. No one to greet at the door and no sign to tell you to sit or wait. We get sat and wait forever just for a menu. Food took quite a while and my pork loin was hard to cut but the flavors and presentation of everything was good and nicely thought out. Bill took forever to come and finally came without the slip to sign or a pen hehe. Last a man at a nearby table dropped a glass that broke and they let the glass sit there all over the floor for far too long. Atmosphere is great and they really are trying I'm sure so we will be back because we want this place to succeed." ]

[ "Yay! A restaurant in the area that isn't pizza, steaks or generic Italian-esque fair. Recently opened in the closed 19th Hole bar, Roxborough Seafood House recently opened with a nice menu of seafood standards. I ordered the steamed mussels with peel your own shrimp. I asked the manager or owner (guy in charge) if there was a sauce. He was very knowledgeable and told me it had a butter and garlic sauce. He didn't even have to ask the cook, unheard of! It did make for a bit of a mess trying to peel the shrimp, but I was given wetnaps without asking by the delightful waitress'. Mussels were good, if a bit small, and the shrimp were well seasoned. \n\nSince they've only been open a few weeks, they made sure to let patrons know they were open to suggestions on none seafood dishes. A good linguine dish, or, my suggestion, a good Louisiana Gumbo. \n\nThe place is pretty skinny, but has a full bar with martini specials 4-7. Again, I was very impressed by the servers and the manager/owner. My drink was refilled without asking several times. The owner/manager (not sure which) seemed a bit tight like a violin string, but hey, it didn't seem to affect the staff's easy going atmosphere. \n\nNotes:\n\n-Cash Only (no sign yet)\n-Seafood Only (but will expand soon, they said)\n-Curiously expensive soup ($6-$7). They have New England Clam and some kind of Seafood Soup. I haven't tried either, but it better be darn good and in a big bowl for those prices.\n-Take-out or Dine-In\n-Got a complimentary basket of rolls. The butter pats were hard, but came with a plastic knife. Kind of strange, but probably just a small mistake.\n-Please keep your waitresses, they are awesome. BTW, I goofed and left 15% instead of 20% tip. Sorry.", "So we decided to check out the new seafood house in Roxborough, only been waiting like years for a seafood restaurant to open in my neighborhood. That being said, we ordered the fried shrimp which where Hugh and tasty! Not overly breaded!, my BFF ordered the crab cake which she said was good. Now, the New England clam chowder was another story, it looked like Manhattan and New England mixed together! I never seen that color before it looked kind of strange. My husband ordered the steamed middle necks which where also tasty but, when we asked for drawn butter to dip them in the waitress looked at us strange and never came back with it! By that time we had already ate them! We ordered a piña colada and grey goose and cranberry which where delish! The owner/manager seem a little tight and we seemed rushed throughout the meal! Maybe he will loosen up as time goes by. Overall pretty good Seafood we will be back but only for takeout! Oh I would have gave them 4 stars if I had gotten that drawn butter, and if the manager/owner? was more relaxed and not so in a hurry to give us our check before asking did we want anything else? Yes I will have another grey goose and cranberry ;) Oh I forgot to mention it's very tight! Not enough seating! Maybe in the summer they will have outside seating. Just one more thing, why serve cold bread with hard butter and a plastic knife that can't cut it? Just a side note maybe warming the bread and soften the butter then we can use the plastic knives.", "Party of 8 arrived at the worst time, happy hour! Service was slow and the fried food was way over cooked. The fish were Whitings but had no seasoning or taste at all. Just greasy. The seafood soup rates \"C+\" at best. Steamed snow crabs were decent. They may need more staff help. To be fair the take out shrimp were perfectly fried and good overall.", "Leave the babies and toddlers at home!!! They do not have high chairs or boosters. The service was horrible and the food was not much better. I had the snow crabs and shrimp and they were drenched in way too much garlic butter. The confused clam chowder was not tasty and I could not tell if it was manhattan or new england. The 3 others had the crab cake and not one of them finished their meal, and it was not because they were full. My son who eats anything spit out the mac and cheese and was happy with the oyster crackers. This is not a restaurant. This is a bar that serves subpar seafood.", "More room for IMPROVEMENT! The fried Butterfly Shrimp has absolutely NO SEASONING and is over fried! If Red Lobster can season their fried shrimp then why can't this place? And alot of people eat at Red Lobster! The mac n' cheese is greesy and has no taste. The crabcake has more fillers than crab meat. The red potatos that come with the crab legs soak up all the butter since they put them rt under the crab legs..making them not edible due to them soaked in greese!", "I found this place doing a Yelp search and was pleasantly surprised to find out that it was close to home. It was also a little confusing from the outside since there were two doors and neither is clearly marked as the entrance. However, once inside, my husband and I were greeted by a tall gentleman that gave us the option of dining area.\n\nThere are two eat-in sections: one with a bright fluorescent light cafeteria feel, and one with a neighborhood bar feel. These two sections were divided by a long hallway which provided access to the kitchen and bathroom. The bar side felt more intimate. It felt more like a restaurant to us, so although it was crowded, we decided to wait.\n\nIt was really tight in there. Not uncomfortable but a little more cozy than you might want to be with strangers...especially as you're standing pretty close to seated diners, while waiting for a table. Within 15 minutes or so, we were seated in a booth with a really nice server. We ordered two drinks, butterfly shrimp, New Zealand Mussels, fries and coleslaw.\n\nGreat: Butterfly Shrimp, Fries, Sauce and Bread served w/mussels\nGood: Coleslaw, Long Island Iced Tea\nMeh: New Zealand Mussels, Amaretto Sour\n\nThose shrimp were big and perfectly seasoned. I personally like cocktail sauce and these didn't need ANY! The fries were fried and seasoned well; crisp on outside and soft on inside (you'd better not mess up fries, though...), The sauce from the mussels (aka mussel juice aka white winy, garlicky, lemony goodness) was heaven..especially when sopped up with the crusty bread! Oh my word!\n\nThe coleslaw was good/standard. The Long Island gave me a nice buzz. The reason why the mussels were meh is because they were slightly gummy, small and they didn't give you enough. However, the mussel juice made them kinda bearable. Also, the amaretto sour was incredibly tiny. Like I'm talking gone in three sips kinda tiny; but my husband also got a coke and seemed happy.\n\nWould I go back? Definitely. \nIt was clean. The environment/mood of the place was very chill. The owners, servers, and customers made it seem inviting.\nI'd go back sooner if those mussels improved but the shrimp and fries were enough to do the trick.", "Very pleasantly surprised! It's NOT the \"19th Hole\" anymore people! The food was excellent [steamed seafood combo was delicious / the proportions were terrific] , and the staff was quite friendly and competent [kudos to the bartender for probably the best martini in Roxborough]. Looking forward to our next visit!", "In short: good service, good portions, great food.\n\nWhat we ordered: 6 butterfly shrimp w/fries, snow crab cluster with 12 shrimp combination, scotch. All were well priced.\n\nThe butterfly shrimp are really huge, my husband only ate 4. The fries were cooked perfectly, and most importantly did not taste like fish. \n\nThe crab cluster combo comes with red potatoes and coleslaw. First: the crab cluster was very large and steamed perfectly. The shrimp were also cooked to the perfect texture. The crab, shrimp and potatoes come together in a butter garlic sauce that was delicious. The potatoes were cut down and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and yummy with the sauce. The coleslaw was standard, I enjoyed it but wasn't anything special.\n\nWe went in at 6:30 on a spring Saturday. The wait was about 15 minutes for a table, sat at the bar. The bar tender was personable. My husband has two scotches while at dinner, one at the bar and one at the table. Both were good pours. \n\nThe staff overall was very nice. We did not feel rushed and both waitresses served us. The food was out quickly and our waters were kept full.\n\nThey restaurant atmosphere is nice. It's small, but I didn't feel crowded. It has fun decor, and a nice bar with a mega touch like game (different brand). I didn't realize there were two dining rooms, but we sat by the bar, in a booth, and it was nice.\n\nWe would give it five stars with just small improvements: more options of veggies (only option was corn on the cob, and they were out), wet naps, lemon in the water (I did ask for this, the waitress seemed to forget), another potato with the combo (comes with one, I would have liked two). \n\nOverall a wonderful experience, and we will be going back again (maybe even this week).", "I've been passing this place for weeks and thought we were guaranteed to be in for a treat. Seafood during Lent? Yes, please! As much as I want to give a shiny review, I just can't do it. My experience was average at best mainly because I didn't think the food was that good. Even the non-alcohol drinks were shabby. The tables are small and very close to other patrons. The bar area looks decent enough to hang out for a few drinks though we did not do so on this visit. Fortunately the prices aren't ridiculous. The staff was nice. Maybe it is just me, the place was packed on a Friday night. I may end up giving them another chance sometime. If it is better I will let you know.", "I would love to give a place in my adjacent neighborhood the glowiest of stars. This is a new establishment and I am always itching to try new places local. \n\nA Friday night during Lent (Good Friday) seemed to be the best time to check out a seafood establishment. It's cozy, in two small dining rooms of tables and booths with a bar. It was not packed but full. It looks like they upgraded it with new fixtures from the former pub (19th Hole, I think) and it seemed clean. \n\nThe menu is laid out in a placemat which kind of has a down-the-shore feel and the murals on the wall are bright, nautical and cheery. Our waitress was attentive and gave great service. There was gentleman that checked on our service, as well, prior to food delivery. (Owner?) The menu was straightforward and didn't really give descriptions of the dishes. The prices were reasonable for seafood 'delivered fresh daily' as noted on the menu.\n\nI ordered snow crab legs but the specials did sound delicious - crab ravioli in a blush sauce with sun-dried tomatoes, etc. But I was fixated on Snow Crab - kind of a Lenten tradition on a Friday with me and the boyfriend. He ordered the same thing but his was a trio with mussels and shrimp.\n\nThe food came out quickly but to my demise, it was in a pool of salted butter. I immediately thought I was at Red Lobster (if that is your thing). Of course, I did not exactly specify steamed with butter on the side, but what a mess! Slippery and crab don't mix so it took forever to eat. I don't really eat that much salt frequently but I felt a lot bloated and smelled like a garlic butter that no wet-nap or hand soap could penetrate effectively. The crabs themselves seemed fresh and large but were tainted by that presentation. \n\nMy boyfriend's dish was similar - the shrimp and mussels were tough and the corn-on-the-cob was mush, likely due to the butter content. \n\nI am sure since this place is new, they have some kinks to work out with regard to the menu, etc. There is always room for improvement and I look forward to hearing more positive reviews so that I am tempted to revisit. It certainly is cheaper than Red Lobster but the dishes and prices are not unique enough to set it apart." ]

Oh and plenty of parking in back - a must in midtown!", "Honest feedback on the shrimp po'boy combination. The food was good here, however the sandwich was cut into three sections and there was only one piece of shrimp on each (just felt and looked skimpy). Second, the fries were smothered in old bay seasoning and while I am a fan of old bay, it was to the point I couldn't taste the fries and burned my lips. \n\nI'll be back, but it'll be a while. Hoping for more next time.\n\nEdit **was corrected the seasoning is not Old Bay brand - still hoping they take into account the heart of the review.", "Excellent New Orleans style bar in Midtown! My friend and coworker, Alexis who used to live in New Orleans for many years, visited this evening for a quick drink and bite to eat after work. We were both pleasantly surprised by the upscale decor, ambiance (live jazz playing!), drink and food offerings, and friendliness of the staff. Upon seating, the bar tender who was super friendly and fun, gave us the run down on the available drinks on tap (including wine! Yes, wine on tap), and food items. We settled on a couple glasses of wine and shared the muffaletta and beignets.\n\nThe food came out quickly and was super tasty. The muffaletta was perfect IMO, although my counterpart who knows better said it needed a sprinkle of sesame seeds. The beignets were also delicious, warm and covered with powdered sugar which I was unable to eat gracefully. Powdered sugar everywhere people. \n\nThe owner, who was very friendly and clearly super passionate about his burgeoning business, was making his rounds chatting with customers and took my friends comments on the food to heart. During conversation of food and life in New Orleans, the topic of a red beans and rice cook off came up...stay tuned.\n\nOverall, awesome new addition to the midtown scene!", "Delicious! Tried the shrimp po boy. The Po boy and the fries were both on point with what you'd get in Louisiana. A bit smaller portion that what you'd get for the price in LA, but very good and not overpriced for being on the west coast. So glad to have a good Cajun spot here in Reno. It's definitely the one thing I can say the area was missing. I'd love to see a little more expansive menu, as long as they keep it authentic cajun style.", "My friend and I were looking for a new place to try out. Suddenly, Rue Bourbon popped up. I was interested immediately and we decided to come check it out! I had the Shrimp Po Boy with fries and a Blueberry Lemonade Shandy. The food was incredibly flavorful with all the cajun spice; but, I wish I got a bang for my buck on the portion size. The shandy was a great choice for a beverage! Last but not least, we had the beignets for dessert. They came out fresh, hot, and DELICIOUS. \n\nEvery element from the interior to the decorations and the music were well thought out. I enjoyed the energy and the flow of the restaurant. I'll be sure to come back in the near future." ]

The mostly white palette, dotted with touches of gold and chic baby blue benches, was refreshing and inviting. \n\nI like that the menu was clear and not over saturated. It made it easier to decide on what to eat. I ordered the Steak Frites. The shoestring fries were delicious -- crisp, and well seasoned. The steak which was meant to be medium rare, was a little over. It was also definitely sliced before resting properly as the juices had run all over my plate. It wasn't bad, but execution was lacking. \n\nMy lunch mates ordered Chicken & Waffles, and the Pickled Beet Salad. They said they really enjoyed their food. \n\nOverall, it was a nice experience.

My friend's burger was raw in the middle, and my egg was not runny at all. They also gave me 2 eggs when I only asked for one. The burgers were also flavorless and that bun kept falling apart. GET A NEW BUN, that one SUCKS.\n\nThere were other things we didn't like but I don't want to fully pick it apart.

[ "The sushi and ramen were delicious and we were given nice seats by the windows. My partner and I had just returned from Japan and were missing delicious, authentic ramen. The ramen was excellent, although I would prefer much more broth and firmer noodles. (Our noodles were a little clumpy initially and had sucked up so much of the broth.) The meat was perfectly cooked, and better than the ones I had in Tokyo. The sushi had a lot of fish and flavor, but the rice was a little thin. The portions were huge so we ended up stuffed. I would definitely come back to try out their gyoza and other dishes. Overall, Ginza is an excellent and welcomed addition to the Pennsport neighborhood!", "Just went in their first week of opening, and Ginza was a great local spot! My friend and I split a mix of carpaccio, sashimi, and maki rolls, and the fish was fresh in all of them, balanced with touches of vegetables. The wait service was prompt but allowed us time to make our choices and to linger a while after, and they were very knowledgeable of what was and could be made gluten free (and have gluten free soy sauce for those who need it!). This is a great BYOB addition to the Pennsport neighborhood, and not a far walk from Queen Village.", "Lovely new place just south of Washington near VSEC. Assorted cuisines from Sushi to Tempura to Ramen and Udon. Everything was delicious especially the Rainbow roll and Deluxe seafood Udon soup. \nAlso try the Tuna Tataki salad for a starter along with the tastiest miso soup!\n\nInterior is attractive and staff super friendly (Linda) and attentive. BYOB on top makes it s great choice!", "Really good food, generous portions, BYOB. Great addition to the neighborhood!", "Best sushi in South Philadelphia. Absolutely delicious. Got three different rolls that all were great. Also had an Udon dish which were some of the best noodles I've had in the city as well. Definitely recommend stopping in.", "I heard about a new sushi place opening in the Pennsport area and I stopped by just to see what they had on the menu... and I stayed! This place is pretty amazing, and it's not only about sushi. I don't know where these guys get the fish, but it's so fresh that you feel that you are eating it just a few minutes after it's been caught. I've been in other sushi places throughout the city, and this place is definitely going to make a difference. The restaurant has been open for only one week and I dined there twice, and looking forward to going back soon. \n\nMaki sushi is fresh and delicious, but their signature rolls are outstanding. Black Pearl roll and Twin Salmon were my favorite ones, but I still have some others left to try. Ramen is spectacular (whoever is the chef that invented King Crab ramen, they deserve a raise immediately); and they have vegetarian options for rolls, udon and ramen, which is always a plus. \n\nTakoyaki and Spicy Garlic Edamame are fantastic as appetizers, but if you want to go crazy, you have to order Miso Black Cod. I couldn't believe how freaking good it was. It is the most tasty and smooth piece of black cod I've ever had. Aside from that, Gyozas are so good. I repeat: SO GOOD, perfectly cooked, perfect texture, not excessively soft. PERFECT. Especially the ones made with edamame, delicious!\n\nI didn't mention anything about the environment itself because I was so focused on the food! The decoration and illumination are ideal to relax (but not one of those places in which they want to play it so romantic that you end up eating almost in darkness). The service is very nice, flexible and prompt but not stressful. If you are on your lunch break, they will take care of you fast, but if you need to take your time or you need to catch up with your dinner mate, they will adapt to your night's plan. \n\nThat's all I can say about this wonderful place. I am so happy that there's a new authentic Japanese place in South Philly, with a lot of delicious options for a more than reasonable price. The restaurant is also family owned (the manager kindly explained to us all about the restaurant when we asked him), which is always something that I really appreciate, especially with gentrification and big corporations taking over some parts of South Philly. \n\nAbsolutely recommendable!", "Where to start? I was really excited to try this place after searching for a local sushi restaurant in the area, and I would have to say, it's not bad, pretty good. It's a new spot that just opened up in the neighborhood. The quality of the fish was good, exceptional. Dishes were presented beautifully. Man I would love to give this place 5 stars but they allowed kids of their own to yell and run around the restaurant. I literally had a kid hiding under my table and hanging onto my chair while I was eating. Sadly my miso soup & seaweed salad came after the appetizers and i don't know why, because those are the two fastest things to make. There's room for more improvement here. I would've enjoyed my dinner here more if it wasn't for them loud kids. I'll definitely be back, stars going down by one if these are back here doing the same thing next time.", "Absolutely delicious!! Ordered the seaweed salad, sushi, sashimi and a few rolls. Everything was fantastic and the service was good too.", "Ginza is a new restaurant to the neighborhood l, and I'm so happy that it opened. My husband and I have come here on two different occasions together, once opening week, and the other on Wednesday night. Adam has come a few additional times for lunch and ordered the Bentobox. Wednesday night we had readily fresh sushi. We ordered three different rolls off the menu, and sashimi. The rolls were different than I have had at other places, and would definitely order them again. Additionally, the house salad with ginger dressing is delicious too with lots of fresh vegetables and lettuce.", "Absolutely delicious!! Ordered the seaweed salad, sushi, sashimi and a few rolls.

They offer the normal NY style pizzaria items on the menu plus a few surprises that you won't find elsewhere such as the strawberry and & mandarin baby spinach salad or the Vinny's Vegas Pie. The slices of cheese I had were delicious here. The sause to the perfect crispness of the crust and the flavor of the mozzarella, all were on point. There are some small tables inside and outside for you to sit at and of course you can take your meal to go if you need to. I will be back to try other items on their menu, so far this place is off to a good start.", "Great spot for a slice! Authentic New York style pizza and right now they are doing one dollar slices for the grand opening. Pretty extensive menu that I have yet to try but I will be back.\nIt's mainly a takeout place very limited seating inside. I do think they will have a patio area at some point. The area desperately needs this kind of restaurant so I hope my neighbors go and patronize Vinny's Pizza frequently.", "This place is very unassuming and modest, but exactly what Downtown Largo needs right now. Ordered a large plain pie for takeout the other day, and oh my goodness. The flavors exploded in my mouth. This is legit New York Style Pizza. Cannot wait to visit this establishment again and again. Support your local pizza shop, people!", "I tried a couple of slices from Vinny's today & will be back. The crust was nicely done: crunch at the outside but chewy towards the middle. Sauce was very nicely seasoned, and the cheese was legit. If the quality holds during future visits, I'd put it on a par with Super Sardo's, and probably ahead of Westshore Pizza. \n\nI like the fact that Vinny's does traditional pizza like a white pizza, cheese, etc., but they also venture into different types such as Buffalo chicken, BBQ chicken, etc. \n\nVinny's is definitely worth a try. I'd urge locals to support our small, local businesses; in this case you won't be disappointed, and it's a win-win for all.", "Grabbed 4 slices on way to the beach and 4 more on the way back. Kids had cheese and loved it, while I had the pan sausage, it was the best slice of pizza I've ever had. Got it twice just to be sure. Fresh mozzarella and patches of bright tomato sauce, with fresh basil and a perfect crust. All as it should be but rarely is. Great prices as well.", "Finally stopped at Vinny's since it opened. Have been looking for a place on Largo with decent pizza. . Got the 2 NY slices and a drink for $5. Meatball and other pepperoni/mushroom. Nice size, barely finished. Loved the crispy thin crust. Place small enough where I saw the guy making the fresh pizza orders. For sure will be back and trying other toppings.", "Finally a New York slice or whole margarita pizza that I don't have to drive all the way to st pete for.\nYes before Vinny's I would drive 45 min each way for a real pizza\nThe crust! The melt in you're mouth pizza crust I love it\nIt's my only Florida go to pizza now", "Happy to have a good pizza place in town. This is delicious NY style pizza. The Opening Special for $1 a slice between 11-4pm has drawn us in twice now and enjoyed both times. We will definitely be back.", "This is an awesome Pizza joint. Just what I was looking for, a nice local pizzeria in the neighborhood.", "Yum,yum. Born & raised in Jersey, along the shore, moved to Pennsylvania, let me tell you this is the shore pizza I've been longing for. Close to home, inexpensive and ever so tasty.

[ "Hanks definitely has some positives and negatives. I feel that three is a generous star offering. \n\nPlus - tasty food, and quick service, large selection of items (at least for breakfast), cheap\n\nMinus - the long wait for a table, the unfortunate seating in the pathway of the door on a cold morning, the lack of space, CASH ONLY, the hurry up and get out of here attitude from the wait and bus staff. \n\nI'd recommend coming when you think no one else is -- waiting and being hurried sucks - especially when you're only eating eggs and pancakes.", "Okay, this place was a disappointment. I read about it in a golf magazine, and their mushroom omelet was recommended. I made a point of going here and should not have. We had breakfast at 7AM on Sunday right when they opened up. The waitresses seemed groggy and tired. We sat at the counter...I noticed the floor was warped and so my chair was unsteady! Anyway, the omelet was $6.95, which I wouldn't mind paying if it was really good...It took awhile...and when it was presented to me I knew right away it wasn't going to be very good. The eggs were overcooked and were brown on the surface...It obviously was made on the grill as opposed to an omelet pan...so there was no fluff...just only a flat layer of egg. There were barely any mushrooms inside and the mushrooms were tired and blah...didn't taste fresh cooked...barely any shitake mushrooms, a couple of standard mushroom pieces and a few pieces of portobello...UGH! OH and this region is a mushroom producing region!!! The omelet had a little provolone cheese. Oh, and the home fries were undercooked and tasted like dirty grill...I didn't eat them. Then two slices of toast were served already with magarine on them (I really dislike margarine). The coffee was standard diner coffee with creamers---it tasted okay...but really should be deemed coffee water rather than coffee! I will not return to this overated place!", "I have to say that Hank is rolling over in his grave right now. I am appalled at what the \"new\" owners have done to the place. I am also upset to the fact that they give no credit or kudos to Hank who started his place back in the 40's!!!!!! Hank and his wife Virginia (Jenny) ran that place. Jenny went in every morning at 3 am to make everything from scratch, even after Hank got too ill to keep manning the grill in the late 80's. I think that if Hank knew Greek food was being served in his home-cooked meal themed restaurant he would be so angry. I just wish I had the money and time to buy the place and bring the \"authenticity\" back to Hank's place and also have it back in the family.", "We have often passed this place on the way to the Antiques Mart and thought we should go in and try it someday since the parking lot is always full no matter what time we come by.\nSo since we knew we were coming this past Saturday to see Antiques we made time for breakfast.\nThere was a little wait for a table and we were lucky the sun was shining and the weather was not too cold. I really had no idea what to expect, but good country cooking came to mind.\nWhen we got indoors it was packed. Every table was filled with people and more. The waitress had to walk around to the end of the row in order to turn and come back up our aisle to deliver our water glasses. And each additional item.\nMy husband got an egg/mushroom Frittata and I got the corned beef and hash (something I had never had before, but always read/heard about) with eggs.\nMaybe it was the wrong choice? But I no longer ever have to pine away for corned beef and hash. NEVER! And now that we have been to Hank's we never have to come back either.\nYes you get a good amount of food. \n2 eggs, corned beef hash, hash brown potatoes (that I asked if I could have them well done) that came brown on one side and lily white on the other. And two pieces of bread.\nMy husbands' OMELETTE was not bad. I'm not really sure what I expected their Frittata to be.\nThe waitress never came back to ask if everything was okay, never came back to refill my coffee and we had to ask for the check.\nThat's it folks, Moving on.", "Even though the reviews here were enough to dissuade me from ever stepping foot into Hank's, I agreed to go when some of my people insisted on its merits and invited me to breakfast. I got there about 20 minutes early so I stood in line to commandeer a table for us. After 15 minutes or so waiting in line, I was coldly & summarily dismissed with a \"we only seat full parties!!\" , and a swift turn of the heel. \n\nThe others eventually arrived, and we were eventually seated (fade-in to clock, another 30 minutes have passed). Our booth was filthy, little egg bits and toast crumbs scattered to all four corners by the single harried wipe of the busboy were menacing us and our elbows. My ears were filled with the din of the packed restaurant...cacophony & clatter, complete with children screeching. (My least favorite noise in the world). Hank's was terribly stuffed with people. And I really don't know why, because the food wasn't anything above the label of \"sustenance\". \n\nOthers may like it because, as they say, it's \"an institution\" , but I'll never go back. At least it was relatively cheap.", "Hanks is a great place to get breakfast, if you do it at 2pm on a weekend afternoon. I have been there a dozen or so times and have enjoyed the food each time. They have a huge selection of non-breakfast items, but I always go for breakfast. If you get in there after 10 or so, they have already switched to the lunch menu. If you ask for breakfast they point you to three lines at the top of the menu, but they won't give you a menu.. You end up paying more, since you have to order every item individually instead of the breakfast menu which has combo pricing. They write the check when you order and leave it at the table and walk away. Food and initial drinks are pretty quick. Usually within 7-10minutes. Sometimes they come around and actively refill coffee and water, other times you have to ask three different people. Overall the food rating for breakfast is a 3 stars. The service is a 2 star and the wait is a 2 star, since they recently (2009) expanded the place and added 6 or 8 tables. Yeah, cash only sucks, but the food is good. As others stated, they should put it in big print on the front door. It would help if they installed an ATM, but that would take up another table space..", "Decades of Wyeth painters have patronized Hanks - a wonderful stop for breakfast or brunch.\n\nThe most imaginative omelettes, waffles and pancakes, often featuring mushrooms from nearby Kenneth Square.\n\nYou sometimes have to wait a while on Sunday mornings, but it's well worth it. Prices re reasonable and the place is fun to visit. \n\nMake Hanks a stop before visiting the nearby beautiful Brandywine Museum of Wyeth and Pyle works!", "The food is pretty good. I have been for breakfast and lunch. I have no complaints about the food. I even don't mind waiting in line on a Sunday morning, which you will do. But the service is so terrible. And everyone who works there is so rude. i once ran into a friend and my aunt at the same time there. They stopped by my chair at the counter to say hello when a waitress promptly barked at them and told them to go sit down. I have never seen a smile on anyone who works there. I am so glad another breakfast place opened up down the street so I don't have to go there anymore.", "For years, we were always intrigued by the long lines every time we would drive by. On a rainy Sunday in March, a friend was in from out of town so we figured we would give it a shot in the hopes that people wouldn't want to wait out in the rain.\n\nLuck was on our side as we were seated right away - the breakfast menu is HUGE!!! So many choices - and then there are even specials! The wait staff is friendly but one can tell that they are nearly militant in their procedure= they must be used to \"Wyeth Vacationers\". Get 'em in and get 'em out type of thing.\n\nNonetheless, the food was down right delicious and very fairly priced. The coffee was plentiful and piping hot.\n\nMy advice:\nGo early and ALWAYS expect to wait no matter what time you go.\nIf you can't stand children or a diner atmosphere don't go.\nIf you have a large group, please spare the rest of the guests and the wait staff - it's a small place!\nTry the fritattas - they are yummy :)", "Stopped in here on mothers day for brunch. To say they were busy was an understatement. I'm told there's almost always a line here. There was a line today too, however Hank's was up to the task. \n\nI had an outstanding skillet breakfast with eggs, home fries and some sausage chopped and added to the mix. For as busy as they were service was quick and our orders arrived shortly after they were entered.\n\nThumbs up. I'll definitely go again. \n\nBefore I forget, they are Cash Only at Hanks.

These folks then gathered up their \"stuff\" and walked back out the side door. \n\nI'm not going to jump to conclusions about what was going on with the visitors, but I find it deplorable that any restaurant would be in this disgusting and unsanitary of a condition while serving food to their customers.

This place already feels like a well oiled machine- hopefully they can keep that up and continue to staff as heavily as they did for their soft opening! The chicken is so good, it's juicy, it's tender and the breading on it is really delicious! The biscuit is flaky and buttery! The sandwich I got had cheese and pickles and they loaded on the pickles, which I'm a huge fan of!! I also got hash browns, which are big, they are alright, I'm not a fan of the spices in them but that's definitely a personal opinion! The coffee is just alright, wish it were better and they didn't have sugar in the raw as a sugar option so I had to use white sugar. Donuts are pretty good, I got the maple bacon, which I repeat what I've said in another places review-I wish places would have a plain maple as well. I like bacon but I'm one of the few that doesn't love bacon on maple and maple is my favorite donut flavor so just leave a couple plain! This location is downtown so not sure I'll be back anytime soon- you know because of the crap downtown parking situation but if they sign up for a delivery service I could definitely see my lazy self ordering a chicken biscuit to my house!

And yes the maple bacon donut has bacon bits on it!", "Super impressed by their grand opening preview day!

Looking forward to trying their other biscuit and donut options! \n\nThe staff was friendly and service was incredibly quick, which is great for people who work downtown to be able to grab breakfast on the go.

The total came out to be $12.11 (I added a 15% tip on it). A little more pricey but its downtown and the food looked good. The biscuit itself was $4.75 and if you add the hash browns it takes it to $6.70.\nFood came out quick as I was in the middle of pouring my coffee from the thermal carafe when they called my name.

I know in our society, everyone wants the most food for the most value, I also understand that obesity is an issue and overeating can be a problem. these hash browns were very good. crispy on the outside and soft and fresh on the inside. They also had some more ingredients on the inside - they call them \"hash puppies\". I enjoyed them. Some will cry foul that there was only 4 in the bag - they were bigger than tater tots. \n\nAll in all - good food - I will come back and try the other biscuits.", "Great venue! The food is excellent ! Perfect southern biscuit , it is flakey and soft , the bacon was crisp to perfection . My children got donuts ( which were devoured in minutes). The workers are friendly and the place is clean. I would definitely come back the next time I am in Nashville .", "The chicken biscuit was perfect! The tater tots are freakin huge! I wish I would have added gravy to the biscuit but even without something covering the chicken on the biscuit it was great. This will easily become the best breakfast place in downtown Nashville." ]

I can't wait to go there again so I can try one of their cheesesteaks. They also had some delicious broccoli cheddar soup. Yummy! The community needs to support our local businesses so if you haven't tried them yet you should make it a point to stop in and enjoy a delicious sandwich.", "Had the pastrami. It was very good on a roll.... not rye. I don't think there was a choice. Get lettuce and tomato and some mustard with it. Also, whatever that pepper relish is..... try it. I took mine home and put it on my italian sub the next day.... it was perfect. \n\nOwners very nice; place is new and clean.", "Good eating! Quick and good subs... check out their daily specials... for the pulled pork (cooked for 17 hours)...", "As someone whose experience with Roast Beef went about as far as Arby's, I was a bit hesitant in trying it here since I've never really had good roast beef.\n\nColor me impressed when I unpacked the sandwich and took my first bite. Was the beef, dare I say, actually tender? This was possible?? I don't think I've ever demolished a sandwich so fast!! I 100% recommend this place and I'm definitely headed back again soon.\n\nP.S. make sure to ask extra on the horsey(horseradish) sauce too!" ]

[ "CAVEAT: I WAS THERE ON OPENING NIGHT SO GIVE THEM WHATEVER SLACK YOU ARE INCLINED TO GIVE THEM FOR THAT.\nOur visit was mostly a train wreck. Place has a nice decor but nothing too spectacular. It is noisy, even by modern standards.\nWe started with shared apps of meatballs (very good), stromboli (good), and roasted peppers (poor). \nSpecialty cocktails were flat and too sugary. \nService was laughable. We had to ask three staff for bread while others had it automatically brought to their tables.\nMy companion had the veal parmigiano. It came out (no exaggeration) 8 minutes before my entree with no parmesan cheese anywhere on the plate. When this was pointed out to server, he offered to sprinkle parmesan cheese from the shaker on the table. We, um, declined that offer. Server then mumbled some sort of apology and an assurance that he would \"look into it\", but he never acknowledged the error again nor was any further action taken or offered to correct the error. I had the Lobster Fra Diavlo. Lobster was horrible. Virtually inedible. \nBack to the service:\n- water glasses sitting empty\n- dirty plates left sitting on edge of table for exceedingly long time as empty handed staff walked by\n- we were brought wrong entree (above) and a wrong dessert\n- your \"check\" is brought to you on a tacky handheld credit card reader. Small screen display that the server scrolls thru for you quickly \"in case you want to take a look\". Your card then scanned and you're presented with tip options, the first of which is 25% LOL! \nThis all came to $30O for 2 people (5 drinks total).\nDespite all this, I'll give it another shot and hope this was just opening night kinks.", "Visited opening night but I am of the belief -- don't open until you're ready. Perhaps limiting the amount of covers you allow opening night would've fixed the following issues:\n- poor service from start to finish \n- badly executed food\n- two bad reviews in the first 24 hours of being open. \n\nPoor service\n- We made a reservation and were told that the wait would be over 30 minutes. Hostess prompted us to get a seat/drink at the bar. There was no room to do so as the bar was full. Approached and was not acknowledged by bartenders. There were some open tables, and I do understand pacing the kitchen but very poor taste from the very beginning \n- Server clearly was green. Stumbled over her spiel. Did not offer to answer questions. Rhythm was off. She would disappear for long periods, clear food while still eating, and ask how the food tasted as soon as it had arrived. Um we haven't tried it yet? \n- Of the two managers, two bussers, and one server hovering to clear our dishes (always as soon as there was just a bite or two left) we were never offered clean share plates or silverware. Three courses of saucy food all mixed together. Did not expect at such a place with entrees ranging from $15-50 I'd have to ask for a common place service. I didn't ask so I didn't get it, I suppose. \n- we ordered wines by the glass and both rounds took a while to arrive. Second round took over ten minutes even with manager checking. \n- only one food runner described our dish, not even the manager who ran food. Would have appreciated more info since it's so dark you can barely see what you're eating. \n- after our dessert was the only time no one hovered to clear. Sat and waited while five managers stood by the server station conversing. Server had also disappeared at this point. We did get a food runner try to drop off veal on top of our cannoli though. That was weird. \n- I'm familiar with handheld payment system but awkward that server hovers as the tip screen pops up. First prompt is 25%. Are you kidding? I left 20% because I'm not a d-bag. \n\nBad Food\n- support staff brought us with basket of stale Italian bread. Insisted on putting our bread plates on top of menu as I moved them twice. \n- pasta was surprisingly pedestrian. You know when you ladle sauce on top of pasta out of boiling water? That's what it tasted like. No sharing spoons or spoons at all offered with pasta. \n- entrees were grossly over cooked like eating at your mother in laws house. Definitely jersey style. Broken sauce with oil separating. Not appetizing. \n- cannoli was fine. Just fine. Tasted like cream cheese. Would have preferred ricotta but that's just my taste. \n\nHey, the restaurant is a beautiful, transformative, bi-level experience though! One that I won't ever repeat.", "It was their first night... Give them a break. Atmosphere was great and the food was delicious", "Came here on night 2 with a group of friends and it was great. Ambiance, menu, service, all fantastic. We sat at the bar and our bartender was super attentive. The manager (I think it was the manager?) was there behind the bar and was really nice and conversational. I appreciated how much everyone made us feel taken care of. The place is beautiful and they did not skimp on architectural details and decor. I can't wait to come back for dinner one night soon!", "Very good food, service was very good as well. The tasting menu well worth it. The restaurant is beautiful, great ambiance.", "The food reminded me of having dinner with my family on Sunday. Everything was delicious. We had the crab and macaroni and the gnocchi. Service was outstanding. Our server Ace was friendly, helpful and fun. My only hiccup was the food was room temperature. Would definitely come back", "Went for dinner on Friday night and was very impressed with the ambiance. Great atmosphere and not noisy at all for being such a large space. The food was also very good. The waitress told us to order five dishes which was a little too much for only two people. We ordered the meatballs, buffalo mozzarella, the Stromboli, the boar bolognese and the chicken parm. The meatballs and the Stromboli were both good and very generous portions. We absolutely loved the chicken parm and the bolognese. Next time we would probably only order the pasta and the chicken parm with a salad to share as the dishes come out haphazardly when they are ready similar to harp and crown. The cannoli that we ordered for desert was fabulous. We will definitely be back and excited to have another great new restaurant.", "First off we sat for 15 mins before anyone offered water. Finally after flagging down a server, and requesting drinks multiple people came over to get our order wrong and be almost overly attentive in an attempt to make up for poor service. \n\nFood was pretty bad. Had been hoping it'd be good, at least to make up for bad start. Meatballs overall salty. Lobster fra diavolo was a hot mush mess. \n\nNot worth a 2nd chance. Would give 0 if I could.", "I don't often feel motivated to review restaurants, but I will in cases when the meal is truly memorable for good reasons, rarely for bad reasons. In this case, this restaurant was memorable for all the wrong reasons. I will say that the space is incredibly well done. It's one of the best looking restaurants I've seen in Philadelphia and this is not surprising coming from this restaurant group. My only issue with the design is it's almost too quiet. Despite being a packed night you could barely feel this because you feel like you're being hidden from seeing the entire dining room and sound just does not carry. Usually my issue is when restaurants are too loud so this is a bit odd. \n\nI found everything else about this restaurant to be uninspired. I can't remember the last time I went to a restaurant in Philly and being disinterested by the menu alone. I get that this is supposed to be a classic Italian restaurant but still the menu is a bit...boring. This wouldn't be the end of the world if the food was well executed and, unfortunately, this is far from being the case. The complementary meatballs were a nice touch but were fairly bland (and not the right dish to send out when the other person with you said she can't eat meat). Their stuffed artichoke dish is the first artichoke dish I've had a restaurant that I truly disliked. The flavor was just off. The pasta, in general, was just decent and nothing to write home about. Their red sauce is just lacking in flavor for me. The service, in general, seemed well-intentioned but basically every course we ordered was thrown at us at once. \n\nOverall, this is a beautiful restaurant that feels as though most of the thought went into the decor and not the food.", "Checked out Giuseppe and Sons for lunch today. Not too crowded on a Tuesday around 1pm. Actually saw Mark Vetri there buying some cannolis. \n\nThe space itself is really nice. Very cute, spacious, with lots of seating. \n\nThe menu features about ten sandwiches, two salads (garden or caesar) and a soup of the day (today was lentil). Prices are reasonable for center city. About $7-9 for most sandwiches. \n\nI got the meatball and escarole and my friends got the eggplant parmesan. Both sandwiches were tasty and filling, but we all agreed they could use more marinara sauce. But we just asked staff for some on the side and they were quick to accommodate. The meatball was definitely solid but I think I would try something different next time. Maybe the tuna or Italian. The bread was just so so, and I actually noticed another patron just eat the inside and he said he hated the bread! I wouldn't go that far but there you go. \n\nThe desserts all looked beautiful. I watched one employee fill cannoli shells from a huge pouch hung from the ceiling. Truly artistic. I ended up getting the pecan bar which was aptly described as a pecan pie candy bar. Really rich and decadent but tasty. Would get again. \n\nFinally we got a half carafe of house white for $18 which is on tap and has a little fizz to try. About enough for a hefty glass for threw people. The tap poured very slowly and we ended up having to wait about ten minutes despite the restaurant being nearly empty. Staff was very nice about it but I was hoping for a free cannoli or something for my trouble. Hehe. \n\nOverall I thought it was a neat new place and I would return again. The service and atmosphere was excellent and the food was not bad for price." ]

The restaurant was very clean and the wait staff and hosts were all very friendly. We will be back.", "So delicious! Meet Noodles is a welcome addition to the neighborhood! The pork chop noodles were my favorite and I could eat multiple orders of the pork and chive dumplings.", "Wow! It is so nice to have a noodle place that is not Pho! It brings me back to my childhood. It was delicious, quality, comfort food! Can't wait to come back.", "Very delicious! Taste of home! Finished them all! The best Chinese noodle place in the town!", "Taste of home! I definitely love Chinese noodles better than ramen! Would be better if the beef were a bit tenderer and fresher.", "So happy a Chinese noodle place opened! Came in yesterday and loved it! Got the pickled veggie/Swai noodle soup, and the broth tasted just like my mom's. Will definitely be back to try their dumplings and other noodles! \n\nThey have the option to create your own noodle bowl as well.", "It was pretty good, but the beef I got was very chewy and the broth flavor was a bit off. The pork and chive dumplings and the basil chicken (basically popcorn chicken) were pretty good! Was hoping for better.", "My husband and I were dreading coming back to Nashville from San Francisco because we ate so well in Chinatown. We finally found some awesome authentic Chinese/Taiwanese food at Meet Noodles. The broth was the bomb! So much deep flavors and a hinge of spicy. We only tried the pork steamed buns and they were delicious. The sauces are house-made. The noodle portions were huge! Meet Noodles is our new favorite noodle place!", "We were so excited to try a noodle place in Nashville! We arrived around 7PM on a Friday night and waited about 5 minutes to be seated. The ambiance was so niche and small, but airy at the same time. Our waiter was very attentive and quick to serve us. Our food came at a faster than normal rate for sit down restaurants. We ordered the cabbage s d pork dumplings as a starter and they were so good! I've never tasted such savory meat except for the real deal! We both got beef noodles. My Steak Noodles has a more peppery soup. We loved the flavor and the ultimate goodness of our noodle bowls! I was very impressed with how tender my steak was and how flavorful the broth was. I ordered spicy but it was not overwhelming. This is my new favorite Asian place in Nashville. We will be returning again and again. Soda comes in cans but they gives you a glass with ice." ]

Get one of the bruschettas to start, probably the great Buffalo Mozzarella one ($8) and then get a bunch of pastas and you will leave happy.", "What a wonderful night! Warm and friendly host with perfect portions of plate scrapingly scrumptious family style food. It reminded me of being back in Tuscany. We devoured all the small plates. I suggest everyone get the full round of small plates to share because you don't want to miss out on any of it. Everything is so reasonably priced that you don't have to feel guilty doing that. The large plates we shared were memorable too, but the small plates were the stars for me. I can't wait to go back and try the chicken because the Branzino was cooked perfectly. We are talking about having our next company holiday party here because the atmosphere was so comfortable and relaxed, but the food was elevated and beguiling. It was everything I like about going out to eat.", "We are so excited about this new addition to Queen Village. We went on one of their first weekends and it did not disappoint! The pasta was incredible (I got the cacio pepe and my partner got the rigatoni). It was perfectly cooked and tasted very fresh. Our cocktails were excellent and we had some of the house red wine that was delicious. Atmosphere is very cool, and service was great (especially considering they're still a very new operation). Very welcome addition to the neighborhood and looking forward to returning!", "Cry Baby is fantastic! Whether you're looking for a night out of excellent Italian cuisine or meeting friends for drinks and appys, this place has it covered. In addition to the wonderful management and staff, the space is warm and inviting. We tried several dishes, all very tasty with some really unique flavors...no disappointments. The meatballs (w/ smoked ricotta) and grilled artichokes were delicious...the best I've had. The rigatoni (w/ smoked chicken) was another stand out, as was the branzino my wife ordered. You can get wine, beer and cocktails at the bar (great before or after dinner). On top of it all, it's very reasonably priced. Great vibe and fun people. Definitely a spot to try.", "Had dinner with hubby & friends at Cry Baby, and we were all WOWED with every dish we ordered - from the meatballs with smoked cheese to the amazing artichokes, bruschetta with buffalo mozzarella, fresh rigatoni with chicken (with the perfect amount of a nice spicy kick) and the char grilled branzino, and some other dishes (we shared all of them).\n\nThe food is mouth-watering & delicious - so happy to have this new gem in the neighborhood!\n\nThere's NO crying with pasta or CRY BABY -- it's 5 STARS all the way!", "Love the chicken riggies, greens are on point, a great redo of a formerly dark decor, light and airy new vibe, great wine selection, priced right for neighborhood. Every meal so far has been terrific.", "Something to write home about. Everything was amazing- food, service, drinks and atmosphere. \nA++++. Have been recommending and will continue. Do yourself a favor and eat here!", "Had an amazing time, food was outstanding and authentic italian, the decor is fresh modern and unique, and service was very personal and knowledgeable - we will def be going back!", "We started the meal with the fritto misto and buffalo mozzarella. The fritto misto came out first but I wish that it never came out. This was terrible the seafood was overcooked and felt terrible in my mouth. The seafood also had a stanky odor which detracted from the taste. \n\nBuffalo mozzarella was served on nice thick slices of toast which was quite good. The basil honey was a quirky color and is surprisingly good on cheese and toast!\n\nThe pastas came out and I laughed my ass off. The tortellini looked like the world record holder for smallest bowl of wonton soup. This was $20 btw. I'm a pretty tiny human but I could actually eat ten bowls of this. Please reference my photo attachment.\n\nThe tagliatelle was not great. The noodles were left to boil in the water a bit too long and were tough to chew through. \n\nDessert was a fun little treat. But nearly impossible to cut apart with a fork. I should have asked for a knife or chainsaw. No real flavor in the custard. \n\nService was great! Drinks were brought out in a timely fashion and plates were cleared between courses. Bravo!\n\nNot sure what others ate here to warrant the rave reviews. Maybe I just ordered all the wrong stuff. If I ever come back I'll just order four servings of the buffalo mozzarella, I'll pass on everything else.", "Growing up in downtown philly, living in government housing, I had quite the limitations on the food I could enjoy. Eating a mayo sandwich, ramen noodles, and plain rice were my daily entrees. So when eating out in a restaurant, anywhere I eat seems like an explosion of flavor and bliss in my mouth. Naturally, due to my demographics and cultural background, I have been in and out of prison a few times. The day a man gets out of prison and into the halfway house, you start to appreciate life because of all the hardship you have been through. Crybaby pasta reminded me of prison. Unfortunately, the food was not quite as good though. The upsetting part was that Freddy from cell 28 wasn't there to make a hookup. But just like getting out of prison, when I got out from this restaurant and got home, I appreciated my wife's cooking so much.\n\nP.s bruschetta is supposed to be toasty, not burnt." ]

[ "This place only opened two days ago so expectations need to be set before you go there. It's always tempting when you see a new menu to order all the wild and crazy items on their menu. Experience has taught me to do the complete opposite order things that you know you really like and see how well the new restaurant does those, so that said Chicken wings for appetizer!!! The menu certainly is expensive $14 for chicken wings and when they arrived there was only 8, At 1st bite you could tell that they been boiled or baked so the flavor definitely was not what I would call a great chicken wing. The kitchen confirmed that the the wings were boiled. The spice was OK but overall didn't like the wings. Not off to a good start. We ordered a Ridge Burger($15) to split, ordered medium rare. When we got this it had been split on to 2 plates(thanks) and along with the fries and onion rings things looked to be improving. The Burger was cooked perfectly and the bacon jam was awesome, they claim to be really well known for their ketchup,and it was incredible, you need to try their ketchup even if you don't like ketchup try their ketchup. It was really good. WE WOULD BUY THEIR KETCHUP. . The fries were good, the Onion rings were crispy. They definitely made up for the lackluster wings. All entrees are ala carte, so be prepared for that too. Our friends ordered some of their Gorgonzola fries and ir was a huge portion and came out steaming hot, the macaroni bites look really good too. Overall a good 1st attempt and considering this is still day two for them being open I would recommend giving them a try, we certainly will be back..", "I was a big fan of Fat Cat Bar & Grill at Tahoe City, so as soon as I saw that they opened one here, I couldn't wait to try! \n\nThey are located at Midtown and it is a new construction building, meaning, looks super cool and modern! The decor was very appealing and the food was amazing! We both ordered the lamb burger, mine on greens and his with the bun. To go along, we also got fries; sweet potato and garlic Parmesan, one of their signature fries. \n\nService was excellent and we even got a visit from the owner making sure we were enjoying our meal. \n\nIf you have not tried this place, pay them a visit!! They are a must go restaurant for Burgers!!!", "While we enjoyed our meal here, I probably won't out this place in rotation. We ordered a few beers, the Buffalo Mac and Cheese balls (the main reason I'd come back, SO good) a sandwich and a salad. The chicken on the salad was dry, and the salad itself was small, but it was good. My bf ordered the Roast Beef Melt and while it tasted good, it was also very small. The sandwiches and burgers also don't come with fries, which was odd.\n\nAll of that I could forgive if it wasn't more expensive than any place similar in town. They're asking Tahoe prices from Reno customers. If they didn't cheap out on the fries I'd be more inclined to go back, but there are plenty of good burgers/sandwiches in Midtown (that include fries!) for cheaper than what we paid.", "Great outdoor seating and wonderful food. And Alisa was a fabulous waitress that chatted and took care of us.", "Excellent burger. Prepared exactly as I wanted. Fries are wonderful. For you Midwest folks, even Pabst Blue Ribbon is on tap! Worth a visit for sure!", "This is a great place to eat the food is awesome and plenty of it. Great service and music.", "Options, options and options abound in MidTown! Another great addition just opened and Fat Cat is it's name. \nThe ambience is very open with an outside patio that will be most welcomed this summer. \nOur server, Tommy was most gracious and very attentive even on a busy night. He kept our beers full and our drinks coming. Even more impressive was Clint, the owner, taking orders and delivering entrees. ( Leadership from the front- awesome) \nThe entrees we had were a Mac n cheese with blackened crawfish and a surf and turf burger with a 1/2 pound patty topped with crawfish. Both were perfect, full of flavor and the burger was cooked to perfection- med rare. In addition, the side of fries were light and salted nicely. \nLocal business, great atmosphere and fantastic staff, this will be another new go to in MidTown.", "Interesting entrance from the front. Long hallway with bathrooms and a door to kitchen. Parking in the back is better. They have a nice outdoor area to eat and spoke of doing concerts during the summer.\n\nThe staff was friendly and the atmosphere was very warm and inviting.\n\nThe food however was a bit disappointing. The crawfish mac & cheese was just OK. Nothing really exciting or flavorful about it. And at the price of $15 I expected to be wowed. The fat cat style fries sounded amazing but unfortunately were not. They were overcooked to the point the fries had no insides just dust. I managed to choke a couple down. A simple fix though. The glazed doughnut burger again sounded like it would be flavorful and amazing. I asked for my burger to be medium but it came out on the rare side leaving my doughnut bloody. No real great flavor in it either. The meat had been worked to the point the burger was tough. A tough rare burger is very interesting.\n\nWith a few tweaks to the food I think it could be turned around. I look forward to going back and trying something else.", "I guess I've been avoiding S. Virginia due to the construction because I wasn't aware this awesome restaurant had opened up! Thanks to the suggestion of my friend we met here for a double date. Happy hour runs till 6:30 PM so I was able to get a $5 well whiskey to start the evening. The drink menu also boasted some classy cocktails, wine, local beers on tap and a rotating nitro tap. It was a beautiful day and the rollup garage style door let in fresh air and sunshine from the patio area. The outdoor seating did look inviting but we wanted to keep our eye on hockey playoffs so we chose to sit inside. Our server gladly put on games for us on the two large TVs near the bar. \nI was torn between ordering the chicken and tofu lettuce cups, an entree salad or the veggie burger, but chose the burger on a bed of greens (an option for all the sandwiches and burgers). The patty was firm and tasty with grilled smokiness, topped with cheddar and pickles. This was definitely not a cardboard microwaved veggie patty. I'm not a mayo fan so I asked for the herb mayo on the side just to give it a try and it turned out to offer great flavor and moisture. Other items enjoyed at our table: buffalo fries, mac & cheese, Brie and fig grilled cheese, and the burger of the month (a Tex burger on Texas toast with bacon). \nThe laid back vibe, indoor-outdoor feel, friendly service and tasty comfort food will definitely keep this place on the Reno food map.", "Great food and great service!

They were delayed a bit from their initial plans with opening in 2018, but based on how great the place looks, it was well worth the wait. This place is very nice and one of a few restaurants in the Downtown area to specialize in seafood. They have 500 seats on two stories. Everything is hand carved out of Tennessee lumber, even the front doors. \n\nFull menu is still pending and they'll be working things out over the first couple weeks, like being super busy. They currently don't take reservations, so it is first come first serve.\n\nAs I just swung by to take a look at the interior, I will be updating my review as soon as the food is tested.\n\nOne of the initial challenges of this restaurant is going to be parking. Basically everything around it is paid parking. There is a garage for the convention center (although during the day this often fills up). There are a couple lots across the street, along with some street parking a bit further away (pay at Central meter or on app). The free trolley from Ybor stops right nearby.", "The food, the Drinks!!

We were all asked to leave because one person in our party had another state address on his legitimate Florida address. First time after hanging out with him for years this has happened.

The restaurant has a vintage country cabin feel with modern upgrades. You don't see a lot of that in Florida and especially in Tampa. I have to say this is the biggest restaurant I've been to in Tampa and I have been to many restaurants all over the Bay Area. It's connected to the convention center which I thought was going to be annoying and a problem to get to but there's a parking area directly in front of it and they offer valet for a small charge. \n\nFood: The food items that I had on the menu were very delicious, prices are a little expensive very similar to fine dining prices. I really enjoyed their roasted gulf oysters and oysters aren't a food item I typically order. I'm very picky with where I eat them due to the lack of freshness but the bartender Linda recommended them, and they were some of the best oysters I've ever had, and I've aten oysters fresh out of the ocean. \n\nService: I sat at the bar one because the set up of the bar is comfy and casual and two because all the tables were giving me anxiety, when I tell you this place is big, it's BIG. There has to be hundreds of tables (lol). The downstairs bar is really awesome because there's a vintage truck that sits directly in the middle and holds all of the liquor, gave me Nashville feels but I decided to sit upstairs because I wanted an elevated view and I was not disappointed! I had the pleasure of having Bartender Linda take care of me and she was so full of energy and wanted to make my dining experience great which I feel has been a problem lately which a lot of good restaurants so it was really refreshing to have someone give me their full attention. Overall I had a great experience and if you ever decide to go sit at the Bar ask for Linda, she was great!", "I was looking forward to a seafood restaurant in downtown Tampa and was excited for this to open. The atmosphere is comfortable, for such a big space it was still inviting. That is where my complements end. With two beers, a specialty cocktail ( very small ), 2 undersized cups of clam chowder an appetizer and a roll we left 80$ poorer, hungry and unimpressed.", "Wonderful opening night January 24th.\nCame for a birthday celebration.

[ "Boxyard is pretty cool, I guess. I went to check it out over the weekend and it was packed! Granted, it was a Saturday night but I guess if all you offer so far is booze, then definitely expect a lot of people to be there on the first weekend it opens. Anyways, the layout of the place is pretty unique, it's like being outdoors inside. They have a rooftop/balcony facing 4th ave and there's another slightly smaller in the back. The ground floor was covered with fake grass and there's plenty iof seating both downstairs and upstairs. Since they just opened, they're not serving food yet. When I asked for a drink menu, the bartender said they don't have one yet but I can order \"anything\" and they'll probably have it...it's a cool concept of a \"bar\" but personally, I can't wait til they actually have a set menu both for food and drinks, cause right now, it's a little too soon to rave about it not having really \"experienced\" what they're trying to offer. It's also a little difficult what kind of crowd they're targeting/hoping to be there as there were just a hodge podge of folks and not that dictates the experience but it's a bar(--kinda nice if it is LGBT-friendly.) The location is spot on, and the layout of the whole place is cool, it's just a matter of whether they'll take it to the next level so that it'd be a nice place to hang out at. That said, I would like to come back soon to see what it really has to offer.", "Really cool spot for a weekend afternoon! I was recently here after an early Saturday of sporting events, and really dug the overall vibe. \n\nYou can find a drink there whatever your taste may be (they had cans of White Claw at the time I was there, and three different flavors!). They've got a nice selection of taps, I went with a local brew - Barrio Porter and it was delightful for a winter afternoon in Arizona. \n\nNo food is served as of yet, but the plan is to serve food in the future. \n\nI'm looking forward to checking this spot out in the spring time, and curious how they'll accommodate for the hot as heck summer months. \n\nFriendly staff behind the bar. Will most definitely be back and recommend to anyone wanting to check out a new spot for drinks!", "Super cool concept. They are still working on the food station (coming soon). The place is beautiful and the staff is friendly.", "This place was pretty cool. Nice setup outside, we didnt even make it up top to the patio area. The drinks are decently priced, and they even have happy hour. We didn't get a chance to eat there, but the 4 food options sounded great. I was told 2 of the places haven't even opened yet", "Everything you need in one place. Great concept and design. This place is so lively. Let's start with decor. Bright shipping containers converted into bright little shops along with benches and tables on the green turf. So colorful!! It contains a full bar with nice selection of beer on tap. Friendly bartenders. This place also includes a Mexican restaurant. I tried the pork and the steak tacos and they were really good. Also be sure to try out the chipotle sauce. Two more food places are supposed to be opening soon. Overall, this great place to hang out with friends in a relaxed, chilled outside environment. It has everything you need music, food and drinks. I will definitely be back.", "Went during the day and it was such a cool spot. Bartenders were all very friendly, and there was a good amount to choose from whether your preference is draft beers, wine, or drinky drinks. Lots of nooks to sit in. Upstairs you can catch a great sunset and people watch below. downstairs too was spread out. I imagine it will get packed on the weekend nights but if you're like me and actively avoid large crowds, stop by during the day/early evening. I recommend it.", "Great ambience. Cool, open place. The bar has a solid beer selection. The BBQ place was decent but not particularly remarkable.", "Ambiance is mellow. Bartenders a friendly and well educated on drinks. The format is unique. More akin to a tapas style of dining but in place of shortlist portions received in a meal you get to experience this with entire restaurants. While affiliated I would like to take the time to point out that I am reviewing Boxyard itself and not the restaurants inhabit space within the venue. I maintain that it is a relaxed atmosphere that is quickly growing in popularity with locals so expect it to be more populated on your average \"going out\" evening. 10 out of 10 would recommend.", "This place has potential to be good... I've been a few different times... couple things... \n\n1. I felt like I wished someone stabbed me in the earlobes prior to entering the bar... the music is terrible... I don't know if it is the bartender's choice or what but the hipster soft emo Jazz rock or whatever isn't doing it. \n\n2. We went once on an evening where it wasn't busy at all, which is no problem... except for the fact that the lady bartender that night seemed to be super annoyed and inconvenienced that we were there and ordered drinks... isn't that what this place is for? and is your job? Hmmm... we got two canned drinks... I easiest of choices. Cheer up lady.", "This is an awesome concept of a place to go get drinks with people. When I went I didn't get food, but they have three different areas where you can order food and it seemed pretty legit. They have a lot of drink options for good prices. Got 2 shots and 2 drinks for around 20$. Not bad at all. Only thing was I felt like the bartender was catering to the crowds he thought he would make more money off of. But that just is how bars go. Highly suggest checking this place out!" ]

[ "This place is a great addition to Broad Ripple! Friendly service and delicious food!!", "Got invited in to try their menu free Sunday evening for serving testing. Entering in, the environment is cool, but I'm eager to see how it will work on regular business days. Nice decor, with a LA/West coast vibe with all the comic strip like murals and spray paint tags throughout the restaurant. \nI was hoping for another cool bar atmosphere, the bar seemed very small so I'm also waiting to see how they'll handle the college aged customer's desire for bar crawls and just hanging at a Ripple bar for sports or etc.\nThe servers were nice, some kinda stumbled on the menu and the floor layout when delivering food, but they still have a few days to prepare for the grand opening!\n\nThey \"don't have appetizers, just chips and dip,\" said my server...(guacamole/queso/salsa) with a nice variety of each. Gave a try to the tres amigos which allows you to sample one of each or double up on a dip. Tried the pinneaple salsa, it was amazing & I highly recommend it! Also gave traditional guac which was supposed to contain cilantro, onions, and jalapeños; it was bland at best, could use a touch of life with a lime squeeze or a seasoning blend added. Tried the Dirty Queso, which was said to have pollo, black beans, cilantro onions. When I first dipped it was just queso, I then realized they just poured queso over top the supposed mixed ingredients and it was on me to stir together. So mix it before you dip it or just try a different one because there were more beans than anything and if I pay $8 I want more than a side saucer of dip.\n\nOn to tacos, they give you the option to customize your own or order from their suggestions which cannot be altered. I gave the ones they'd put together a whirl. Tried over 5. None stuck out more than the most basic ones. Like Georges Dirty Taco, it was a homage to a traditional burrito/taco. The Broad Reefer, which was said to come in a \"firecracker shell\" was a disappointment, they dusted the outside of a hard corn shell with a cayenne pepper blend and called it different. It was hard to keep the spice on and off of my hands.\nThe Sweet Lucy shell is merely a hard corn shell inside a soft flour shell with queso blanco in between, also not the best.\nI didn't like that most tacos came in hard corn shells or soft flour shells. For a more authentic or flavorful plate I'd like corn soft shell and serve your tacos with lime wedges, or a salsa on the side!\n\nAll in all, this place will most likely do well. It's not a taco place for authentic taco connoisseurs, but it'll help fill the same Mexican cuisine void Qdoba already taps into for this area.\n\nDidn't get to try drinks, since it wasn't technically open, that'll be what I return for. To give the margs a go! Try for yourself, but I'd only go back if nothing else was seating quickly in area.", "I will preface this review by letting everyone know that I attending on what was dubbed as a \"VIP\" night, but was actually a kill the kitchen night. \n\nI arrived with a large group of friends. The build out looks fab!! the murals are gorgeous. You get to pick a taco from their menu or you can create your own. There seemed to be an issue with the kitchen and their timing. Some tacos came out within 15 minutes.. others not for 45 minutes or an hour.\n\nGo for the Lucy taco. Don't order the shrimp ceviche. I had two shrimp in my taco.\n\nBanana marg was great!\n\nAsk for Whitney - she was a stellar server. Meanwhile, other servers were storming around and saying \"ARE YOU WAITING ON TWO TACOS OR NOT?\" Good grief. Hopefully that was the last stressful night because they could not handle it.\n\nI might give this place another try. It seems to be popular in Columbus.", "So happy they brought Condado here! I had visited in Columbus and loved it, so when I heard they were coming here, I anxiously waited for the grand opening. Luckily, I got invited to an exclusive preview event a few days before the grand opening, and got to sample their menu of food and drinks. Love the decor inside featuring cool taco-inspired wall art. I ordered my favorite blood orange margaritas, chips and dips appetizer, several of their taco suggestions and the \"late'chos\" - which were yummy and came with a pile of toppings. They also have a create your own taco option. \n\nStarted with the El Tres Amigos - which comes with chips and one of each guacamole, queso and salsa dip. I fell in love with the dirty queso and had to order more!\n\nAmong the tacos I tried were El Santo (my favorite), Ooey-gooey (also good), surf n turf (good option with steak and shrimp), bubba kush and el traditional (my least favorite of the bunch). \n\nOverall, I know I will be back to get more El Santo tacos and dirty queso, and also try creating my own tacos. Their margaritas are delicious and they have $5 specials on weekdays. This will be a great spot to hang out and they stay open late! So glad Condado is finally here!", "My friends and I were really excited to try this place, but we were very disappointed. Our server was great and the atmosphere and decor are fun but there wasn't much else we enjoyed about our experience. I of course know this was opening night, but there is definitely room for improvement here. The margaritas were very very artificial tasting...the house margarita being the worst out of the three we tried. Our margaritas actually ended up being on the house because neIther of us could drink ours. We ordered the trio of appetizers - going for the chorizo queso, traditional guacamole and roja salsa. The guacamole was really oily for some reason, the queso didn't have much chorizo in it at all and there was nothing special about the salsa. We also tried the bacon refried beans but they lacked flavor and had a weird texture. I went for the build your own tacos (I prefer soft corn tortillas which aren't on the menu but available on request). The shredded pork taco was lacking in flavor even though I added verde salsa and cilantro lime aioli. I found the pork to be really dry and tough. If you are looking for authentic tacos this isn't the place, but might be a good option after a night of bar hopping.", "Friendly staff..tasty queso ...good taco size..tasty pear margarita! \nSo glad to finally have a taco place like this in Indy will definitely go again!", "I was impressed! It was the first night it was open. I forgot how large the space is. All of the art on the walls is pretty cool. The staff was friendly. The seating is \"community\" tables so you might share a table with other people. The strawberry margarita was delicious for an extra $1. You can build your own taco and it was only $4 and there was a lot in it! I'd definitely go back and try it again. Glad something opened up there!", "I came in on opening day around 5:30 the place was packed. Luckily there was an open table, but from the size of the tables I can see communal seating being a thing here, but hey it's broad ripple so why not? I was seated quickly and the table was wiped (onto the floor ) today the margaritas were only $3. The waitress told me the favorite of the staff so far was the banana jalapeño (Banana flavor and muddled jalapeño). Any mixture of flavors is only $1. Btw the flavors are not syrups and all natural fruit flavored. Oh, it just arrived. Hmmmm. Yummmm. Spicy just enough for a great flavor and then the banana comes to save you and mellow out the spice.\n\nAs far as food I had the dirty queso which was actually pretty good!! The chips provided with the queso were nice and fresh. Lightly salted. A few others around me had the guac which looked pretty good, I will have try upon return. I also had the El Santo taco, and it was....... a $3 taco. The two shells weren't amazingly interesting nor the fillings. The sauce added a little something but still was barely above average as a taco. \n\nFour stars based on basic but above average food, the dirty queso pulling the weight. Then again with the customizations available their may be many combinations and possibilities. The wait staff was quick and eager, even when delivering to the wrong side of the communal table. Margaritas and natural flavors are a win and give reasons to continue to try the menu.", "The service was wonderful! Everyone was very outgoing and friendly. \nOur food was average. The queso was oily and my chicken taco was seasoned weird. But my friend loved his brisket!", "Great atmosphere and awesome servers. Everything else was mediocre at best. Very disappointed in the margaritas and food. Weak drinks, bland food." ]

I couldn't find any crab in them and they just broke down into some flaky mess on top of the pasta that kinda tasted like Kellogg's corn flakes I'm gonna be real I was so disappointed after waiting so long to try this place and seeing so many good reviews on fb, hubs was upset he wasted so much money but made me happy by taking me out to eat at a favorite place of ours instead.", "Ordered the call balls and pasta.

Trust me, these crab cakes are delicious", "After hearing about this place by word of mouth for months, a discount on Postmates that was too good to pass up urged my mother and I to finally place an order. Just WOW. We ordered the seafood disaster with an extra crab cake. Now I'm not a huge fan of crab cakes being as they're either too dry or bland, but these just became my new seafood obsession. They are unlike any crab cake I've tried before, rich with lump crab meat and flavorful seasonings. These cakes practically fall apart and melt in your mouth, so delicious!! We love pasta, and that was right on as well as the catfish. My mom said the fish was just like she likes them, batter and all.\n\nUnfortunately the kitchen ran out of lobster, so we're going to have to wait till next time to vouch on that one, but if it's anything like what we've tried so far, I'm sure it'll be great! \n\nI work as a bartender downtown, so in the future I'll be sure to recommend this place to patrons as my top choice of quality seafood. I'm already planning my next visit for the 2 can dine for $30 coming up soon. \n\nDisregard the poor reviews, and just try this place for yourself. If you disagree with me, just call me crazy. From now on Pee Wee's Crab Cakes will be our new exclusive choice for takeout when getting our seafood fix.", "This place is bomb!!!! Seriously. It's a little hard to find. But it is a must visit.

Why not start with food since that is my favorite subject! Took a day off from work for self-care and ordered two dishes to take to the lake.

We ate here on a weeknight and they had ran out of a few things... not a big deal since we were open to try the other options on their menu.\n\nWe started with the chicharron which was sprinkled with cottage cheese and scallions and super oily. We also shared the pig tails which tasted pretty good but was a lil hard to eat with silverware. Then came our main course the pork knuckle which was laid on top of the creamy leeks. The creamy leeks were delicious you could taste lemongrass in it and I wished it was a dish on its own. The pork knuckle on the other hand was very difficult to eat and cut, and was probably 40% fat, 30% bone and 30% meat. Other than that, service gets an A+, our server was very attentive and helpful, she recommended that we ordered 2 small plates and one entree, which was more than enough food for the two of us.", "Had a pretty sub-par experience with this new place.

Didn't believe that it was really worth the value per plate. The lamb shank in particular stood out for me because for a shared plated, we were only afford maybe 70% of the bone and 30% of it actual meat, that's on the generous side.\n\nWe left feeling hungry.

Wanting to try the chicharron, but they were sold out (at 6:45? bummer). \n\nThe desserts were unremarkable - the halo halo wasn't too high in flavor, but the other dessert - the turon - was like nothing. I don't even know how to describe it except that no one finished their bites.\n\nUpon leaving, we had (six of us) each spent $40ish each and found ourselves wondering where we could get some other food. \n\nThe one saving grace was the whole chicken, which was tender, flavorful, and enormous.

[ "Why 4 stars? Because the tacos were light and delicious.\n\n --- --- ---\n\nFor anyone else planning on visiting Sparkman Wharf shortly after they open, please expect the vendors to be adjusting to the massive influx of people that's sure to descend upon them. I visited about an hour and a half into day #1 and waited 27 minutes for my tacos from the time I ordered until I had them in my hand, to give you an idea of what you're probably in for. But that kind of time frame is completely understandable as these folks get used to the timing of a live audience.\n\nThese are the same guys responsible for The Rooster & the Till, so I knew that the quality of these tacos would be high, and they did not disappoint. My only gripe is that they are $4 each and can be scarfed down in a couple of bites. I suppose a bit of an up-charge is to be expected when dealing with something as wildly popular as Sparkman Wharf is about to be, but it still just feels a tad high.\n\nWhen it came to choosing which tacos to order, once I saw that they were pretty small, I opted to go crazy and just order one of each. \n\nThe star of the show was absolutely the Duck Carnitas. If I were to come back, I would have just ordered four of these and maybe tried out the street corn as a side. If you're checking out Gallito, do yourself a favor and order many Duck Carnitas tacos!\n\nThe remaining tacos were all very solid, but the duck carnitas definitely stood out from the rest of the pack. The carne asada and pork belly were probably next in line in terms of my favorites, followed by the barbacoa and the chicken.\n\nI'd been stalking the Sparkman Wharf social media and planning to visit on day #1 for a while. So many of these vendors look amazing, but after careful consideration, I figured that The Rooster & the Till guys doing tacos should be my first stop and I was not upset with that decision!", "Gallito Taqueria is a new Mexican Restaurant in a shipping container at Sparkman Wharf in the Channelside District of Downtown Tampa. \"Gallito\" is Spanish for \"little rooster\". \n\nGallito Taqueria serves Duck Carnitas, Carne Asada, Pork Belly Pastor, Chicken Tinga, and Barbacoa Butternut Tacos for $4 per piece, street corn, mango with chili. \n\nTo drink, Gallito Taqueria serves Modelo Especial Lager, Victoria Lager, Pacifico Pilsner, and Corona Familiar Amber for $6, Sangria, Pavo Real Red Blend Wine, Pavo Real White Blend Wine for $8, and Jarritos flavored sodas for $3. \n\nYou have to stand in a long line for 45 min to place your order and then stand in another line waiting for another 10 minutes to get your order. We ended up ordering 3 tacos which included the Duck Carnitas, Pork Belly Pastor, and Chicken Tinga. The tacos were so small, they're about half the size of regular tacos and about half the size of my phone. The Duck carnitas was my favorite followed by the Pork Belly. The tacos sadly didn't come well marinated and to my shock there was absolutely no salsa or hot sauce available, which really left these tacos quite dry and lacking flavor. Sadly, we left still hungry. If the tacos were better we might have ordered more, but with how long it took to get tacos, we didn't bother. When we placed our order, the server should have warned us that the tacos are tiny and we should order more. \n\nI judge all Mexican restaurants based on their house made chips and salsa and house made hot sauce but sadly Gallito Taqueria didn't even have store bought chips and salsa or store bought hot sauce so for that reason, they're gonna get a low score in my book. Add the wait time to get food, poor flavor of the tacos, no table service, no hot sauce, visiting this Mexican Restaurant was just not an enjoyable experience at all. We didn't even have a table to sit at. We had to sit on the steps which wasn't the most comfortable.\n\nIt's a shame that a real full service sit down Mexican Restaurant with an extensive menu and mariachi band, Hablo Taco, had to be bull-dozed to make way for this concept but it did bring back new life to the area. If you want a real sit down full service Mexican Restaurant in Downtown Tampa with decent sized tacos, house made hot sauces, house made delicious salsa and chips, I highly recommend going to Urban Cantina or Taco Bus instead of this place. \n\nManagement, please stock some hot sauces, chips and salsa, offer table side service, offer larger tacos, and add better marination and more toppings to your tacos! If I do come back and see some improvements I am open to raising their score.", "I was excited and hungry as I waited in the inevitable long line. Sparkman Wharf has been hyped for months, and so has their food vendors. Operating out of shipping containers I'm expecting good food and reasonable prices, since overhead is low and tips are subsidizing wages. I ordered two butternut squash tacos and a side of street corn which I paid for w a CC as no cash is accepted (no problem there for me.) Despite the huge line the food was prepared quickly and the wait was less than 10 minutes. The tacos were good yet diminutive in size. A friend asked if he could try the tacos to which I laughed and told him NO! as one bite would take out half a taco. That almost ended our friendship. So the total after tax and tip for two baby tacos, street corn and still having hunger pangs? $14.77. Yes, $14.77 spent on street food that leaves you hungry. I just read the tortillas are flown from L.A. That seems overkill considering I didn't give a second thought to them. There are plenty of local places that could provide fresh tortillas for cheaper and without people noticing a difference.", "I had the carne asada and chicken tinga tacos. The tacos themselves were delicious, which is why I'm giving 3 stars. However, the price point was ridiculous! $4 for the tiniest street tacos I've ever seen. While street tacos are usually on the small size, these were still smaller, just about two bites each. 4 tacos for two people with two bottles of water was $24 ($4 each for the basic nestle 16oz bottles. Yikes!)\nAll this to be still hungry when finished. It would probably take more than 5 tacos to feel satisfied for one person. At that price point, there are many other places in Tampa I would rather go. I'm willing to pay for spectacular food, but this just wasn't worth it. I honestly won't return here unless the pricing or portions change.\n\nI did have a wait, but not much, probably 15 minutes or so which was expected.", "I had the pork belly, carnitas, duck tacos, and mango chili. My experience is that the food is okay. The pork belly way too crunchy and had less of a flavor to other pork belly tacos I've experienced in Tampa Bay Area. The mango chili I also wasn't sold on. The best thing so far on the menu was the carnitas", "Waaaayyyy too small of servings to satisfy the appetite. I ordered a Esquites (street corn), which is mostly corn pieces topped with chipolte crema and citija (a hard crumbly cheese) and a chicken tinga taco (same kind of cheese with chicken and cilantro). The tinga was okay tasting but not much for the price. The taco was super runny with red liquid dripping all over and is the smallest sized tortilla they make (picture so small you can barely put anything on it). This would be great if I was doing tapas, but for $8 I had to go to another restaurant for an entree just to fill up. Drinks are jarritos (several flavors) from Mexico for $3. Oh, and the worst part was that the computer checkout, which you can't see in the sunlight, forces you to tip a minimum of 15%, as there was no option for no tip. For a place with basically no service this is ridiculous. The only positive was the meal was ready pretty quick (4 minutes). I will not be returning to this container restaurant. However, the venue of Sparkman Wharf is a cool concept.", "The food is okay but the fact that they charge $4 dollars for a taco at the size that they serve is absurd. Being Mexican it's almost insulting, that alone ruined this restaurant for me. May be my last time eating at this place.", "Unfortunately this did not meet up to the standards that I imagined. I have been to a ton of Mexican restaurants and this was one of the worst that I have experienced.\n\nI would try it again but I would be hesitant.", "I'm not sure I've ever given 1 star, but this was that bad. Zero meat in the Barbacoa taco, 5% meat in the duck taco, sufficient meat in the carne asada taco, but it was absolutely cold. $26 for 5 street tacos and a soda, and left hungry. Man, do I so miss Texas!", "Paid a good amount of money for cold food and a screaming lady at the window. Garbage" ]

So my girlfriends and I had to come out and support.\n\nThe dining area is located on the 2nd floor on the corner of S. Randolph and Washington. Still small, but not as cramped up with more tables/seating provided. Casual ambience with simple traditional decor. \n\nWe ordered fried shrimp, papaya salad, prahok ktiss, and hot & sour soup with pork ribs. All the dishes were good. One thing I was disappointed in were our green syrup drinks. Not as good as you can get from the street vendors. \n\nGiving that the place is still relatively new, service will be awhile.

So, I ordered the sweet chili wings bc it looked amazing when I seen the other table order it and when I took a bite into my wings, it was still red and blood was still dripping! I told the waitress and she addressed it to the kitchen and maybe 10 minutes afterwards, the waitress offer me something else and at that point i really wanted to just walk out, bc the food takes a very long time to come out.

My biggest pet peeve is asking them to refill my cup of water!!!!", "Although the food was ok, the service ruined it for me. When we arrived we were told to sit wherever. I don't know about anyone else but I think it is polite to seat your patrons. The tables had no utensils or napkins. We had to ask for all of it, including water. It took an hour for our food to arrive, even though there were only three parties there, all the while the waitstaff never came over to let us know why it was taking so long or to check up on us. Also, the grilled chicken that I ordered was actually fried chicken. It was over cooked and greasy. \n\nI have been a server before and must say that the waitstaff need some serious training.

Maybe my expectations were too high but it was a rather disappointing experience. I ordered my two favorite dishes - the grilled steak and lok lak (shaking beef stir fry) and both were over cooked and not as tender and flavorful as Khmer Kitchen. We asked for medium rare but half of the steak was well done and dry. Also, it took over 30 mins for our dishes to come out and although both dishes should've came with rice, they didn't bring it out until we asked. The rice was delicious though! Perhaps it's because it's still new, food and service were both a little disappointing.

This was their first time trying Khmer food so they couldn't compare it to other Khmer restaurants/dishes. I couldn't believe they liked the tuk prahok sauce! They especially raved about the Thai tea. \n\nMy opinion: their thai tea is fresh brewed so it was delicious. The flavor of the food was a little on the sweet side but good (of course, I'm comparing the food to my mom's cooking and no one can beat my mom's cooking). I especially loved the crispy shrimp.

First thing we heard upon entering The Metro Diner was a \"Hi yall, how was your day?\" That greeting and the hostess' big smile was delightful in a way that reminded me of when I would visit my grandmother on a Sunday afternoon. The warm welcome was the first of many surprises of this charming diner. \n\nTheir decor plainly displays their values with signs that boast of memories and food and friends. Kennedy was knowledgeable concerning the menu and requested that we come back next week to have their hearty breakfast platters. \n\nWhat we didn't know was that we came in on opening night and boy, was it ever busy with managers, trainers, a numerous cooking staff and servers galore. Many times someone would stop by and ask if we were satisfied with our food and if they could make our dining experience any better. It is so refreshing to see people smiling while working as well. \n\nAfter many decisions, I chose a simple spinach salad with grilled chicken, and my friends ordered a BLT sandwich, grilled salmon with sautéed broccoli and an avocado spinach black bean wrap that won the prize for BEST MEAL AT THE TABLE. \n\nWhat stood out was the ultimate beverage station where you could order a range of adult drinks to espresso milkshakes. Ask to sit there to get a great view of the restaurant and take in a baseball game on the big screens. \n\nOn the way out to the parking lot, we were already deciding when our next visit would be.

I really wanted the Charleston shrimp and grits but was not that hungry. I saw one though and portions are huge.\n\nThe biscuit was good reminded me of Popeye's but not as fluffy or greasy. The chicken was also fine, coated with a Tabasco and honey combo.\n\nMy first pancake had the essence of onion from the griddle so they were gracious enough to give me another. Asia, the waitress, is quite personable. The manager Mike/Dave? got points for complimenting me in having the taste buds if an executive chef since I tasted the onion. Staff is new and didn't clean the griddle well at first. I understand.\n\nThe second pancake was typical diner: kinda spongy in texture and how it absorbs syrup. It had a but of flavor (then I just got a hint of cinnamon in two bites) but nothing I'd crave later like I've had elsewhere.\n\nThe staff's friendliness and attentiveness earned the spot an extra star. I'll come back for the shrimp and grits and find out if my 3 stars becomes a legitimate 4 or 5.\n\nAnd I do applaud how widely they've advertised to get a crowd like this on the second day.

As a restaurant that actually has a tag line on yelp with gluten free in the first few words you would think they would post on the door the lack of a of one of their core promised ingredients. \nWe did in fact go their specifically for a gf option do to actual medical issues.\n\nAdvised them they may want to post the lack of availability of a gluten free option on the door to reduce frustration and walked out. Never ate anything at the restaurant so this is a customer service review.\n\nInstead we went to Burger Me and low and behold they had a gluten free option and wonderful service.", "Soooooo disappointing!! Waaaay over priced for the quality ! Waaaaaaaay! I can understand paying 12.00 for a sandwich that is amazing!! But don't charge me another 3.00 for a drink and bag of chips, then another 5.00 for a small bag of reheated French fries!!\n\nThey do have vegan sandwiches here... so that's a plus , but they are mediocre at best. And the French Fries!!! Yuck!! I mean the French fries aren't even vegan!! I mean .... where in the wild world of sports can you find a non vegan French fry?? IKES!! That where! \n\nOk.... my husband and I saw a show at the summer then headed over to grab a sandwich , easy dinner option for us.... and they have been open for 5 weeks ... so we wanted to check them out. So.... here we go! \n\nFirst the side door was \"broken\" so we had to go around. THREE people were working and not one of them greeted us, oh we were the only people in there by the way. We , after a very painful Q and A , some confusion and a total mishap with the POS.. finally placed our order. \n\nOur order came soon enough but when my husband asked for his \"combo \" fountain drink he was handed a rinky dink clear plastic cup. When my husband was not having that, the cashier gave him a regular cup ( only one size available ) ... you remember there was just the two of us there AND three of them. The guy couldn't even remember we ordered a combo... I mean come on! \n\nOk... moving on, This place has been open for five weeks. What a mess!! The seats were ripped the counters were dirty and there was paint and fingerprints all of the windows and curtains! \n\nWe asked to have the table wiped down and at least that was done right way. \n\nWhen the food came out it smelled and looked delicious.... NOT the case. Totally underwhelmed. The meat is under seasoned and bland.. my vegan fried chicken tasted like a super dense slimy piece of tasteless cardboard - YUCK!! With amazing sandwich places in town... this is my LEAST FAVORITE! \n\nSkip the disappointment and head to a different sandwich place, or at least head up to the location by UNR! That one was at least has a good staff and fresher products.", "The bags of chips are always so skimp. They literally have like 8 chips in them and they charge like $3 for a bag. They need to change their vendor for chips. Lastly, the people working there took a very long time to make the sandwiches because they seemed inexperienced. They acted as though they weren't trained. Whack because I like the Ike's in the Bay Area.", "Best vegan sandwiches in town!! They have so many options and this is a great place for lunch catering/delivery. Service is always fast and friendly", "I wanted to love this place but at the moment, I'm not. I was slightly confused with the menu as they have unique names for their sandwiches and finally when I decided on one, I was let down by the sandwich itself. After reading the description, it sounded awesome but what I got was a little underwhelming. I feel the gluten free bread over powered the sandwich. I barely tasted my dry thin cut ribeye. For the price the sandwich was pretty small. Customer service was nice and the only saving grace. I also forgot to mention for being slow, the sandwich took a while to get made. I will give them a shot again and hopefully get to improve the rating. Maybe I made the poor choice of trying to go healthy. I will try their most unhealthy sandwich next time.", "So happy to have finally found a good sandwich shop in Reno! I had never been to an Ike's before. My boyfriend and I ordered custom turkey sandwiches on dutch with Ike's \"dirty mayo\". They were so good! The dutch was perfect and all of the toppings were great. I also really liked the dirty mayo- it was like mayo with a bit of a garlic-flavored kick. \n\nThe only downside was that it took 20 mins for us to receive our sandwiches, but there were 5 people ahead of us, so it's understandable. I guess the fact that I was starving made it seem like a long time. \n\nFor two sandwiches and two cans of soda, the total was around $20. Reasonably sized sandwiches for the price. \n\nHappy customer, will be back!", "Sandwiches are always good, the price is to be expected for the quality and type of ingredients used. Having vegan options for folks is always welcome as well. \n\nMy only gripe is I do agree the value of the \"sidekicks\" isn't there and won't be plunking down $5 for the fries again. They are tasty but hard to justify when then sandwich commands a (deserved) premium. \n\nThis isn't Subway or Jimmy John's, if you want precut slabs of whatever tossed on bread or don't want to pay more than the mentioned places, just don't come.", "Amazing sandwich amazing speed, say good-bye to subway. So hard to get sandwich combos right without making them confusing or making them hi yet piles of stuff, this place breaks through this limitation and hits it out of the park. They have unique meats like rib eye, and fried chicken. They have unique in house sauces like \"yellow BBQ sauce,\" \"orange wasabi sauce,\" and a \"steak saufe.\" This is not a place you eat at because it is close, no, it is a place you drive the extra mile for." ]

The place looks amazing with all the little updates they did. The menu is awesome and the staff is super friendly. We are really looking forward to being regulars! \nThe food... Everything we ordered was awesome. The chef really knows his way around the kitchen. We had the grilled Octopus and literally the best I have ever had. All the apps were great. \nDinner, we had a chicken gyro platter... It's was great. The horatiki salad was beautiful! And finally dessert... Mmmm it was so good. \nThe outdoor seating is really nice and having a BYOB is always a plus! OPA!", "This is probably one of the best Greek restaurants I have eaten at in years. The food was excellent. The service was great. Amazing atmosphere and relaxing environment. Both indoor and outdoor seating. It's BYOB so come prepared with your own wine. Prices are reasonable. Portions are generous. My compliments to the chef! We will definitely be back in the future.", "Welcome to Glenside! We have been looking forward to a robust Mediterranean menu and Elia does not disappoint. Our server Judy was helpful on the menu and very pleasant. The restaurant was slammed because of a show at the Keswick and yet they maintained a calm and relaxing atmosphere. \nWe look forward to returning and pairing salads with entrees.", "Went on a Saturday summer evening around 7 and was not crowded. Seated immediately. I try to stay away from new restaurants when they open, but fail. We were greeted by our waitress Xrisanthi (got it off the receipt), and she was very helpful. Started with the saganaki flabe. It's quite a sight to see when they light it up table side. For our main course, we ordered the Kodosoufli for 2. It was really good. It was a platter of a variey of foods. Chicken, lamb, greek meatballs, greek fries, and pita triangles. There was enough for 3, possibly 4 people if you had appetizers. For desert, we had some karidopasta. Delicious and moist. Ordered 2 greek coffees and learned 1 lesson. They ask if you want sugar for a reason. I asked, but wanted to add more. However, there is sediment settled in the bottom and when you stir, it all separates. So, DON'T stir the coffee! :) Very reasonably priced. Atmosphere is nice. Meal got cool kind of quick as we were sitting under a ceiling fan that worked really well. Will certainly go back to try more dishes. Some of the dishes may take a while. Not because of crowds,as it wasn't crowded this night, but overheard the waitress tell others that one of their chicken dishes take about 1/2 hour to make. So, bring extra alcohol just in case.", "My husband I went here for a date night and couldn't have had a better night! The waitstaff was respectful and attentive. The atmosphere sitting outside was lovely without too much noise or loud music. We shared an the loukaniko sausage appetizer, the melitsanosalata spread, the greek summer salad, and a seabass entree. Everything was so fresh and prepared perfectly. We will definitely be back soon!", "Wife and I stopped in by chance, I couldn't decide what to get, it didn't matter everything was wonderful. Authentic Greek salad, the meatball appetizer they light on fire table side and the feta in the dish is delicious. I'm a dessert guy before dinner and the baklava was insane!!! The gyro I had was great but be more adventurous than I was because everything on the other tables and my wife's stuffed chicken dish looked great. I really can't say enough good things, seems like a very nice family from Greece and obviously we will be back.", "Excellent service, excellent food!! What a pick!! I was in the area visiting and needed to pick up something to eat for home. I did a search on Yelp and found Elia's. I ordered the horiatiki (greek salad) with grilled chicken. Please note that there is NO LETTUCE in this salad but it was so tasty!! It's small but packed to the rim. I also got the Avgolemono Chicken Soup, very good. A little expensive almost $27.00 for both, but the service was well worth it. Next time I will go back and sit in rather than take out.", "Just had the most fabulous lunch. Great service, fantastic food and reasonably priced. Cant wait to go back!", "My friend and I went for lunch. Everyone who was working was very warm and friendly and they all greeted us. They brought a really yummy small plate to the table which i loved. We both ordered salads and were surprised that the salads didn't have lettuce, but the waitress had informed us that all of their dishes are prepared in the traditional style. They were delicious regardless. Maybe they would consider offering an \"American greek salad\" for those of us who are accustomed to lettuce on our salads. The salads were really pricey ($14 before protein). I think that's an expensive bowl of tomato, cucumber and feta. When the check came it seemed really high for what we had and we informed the manager that they charged 9% rather than 6% tax. He explained he was unable to change this and it must be wrong in their system. Hopefully they fix this error, I won't be paying an extra 3% to the state the next time I dine here.", "Awesome addition to Gside! Service was great as well as the very fresh food.

I ordered a basic cheesesteak with cheese wiz and it was huge! $7 and I was really full after eating half (yes, I ate the other half anyway). \n\nThey do have some more unique cheesesteaks (Far East) and Vegan cheese\"steaks\" too. It's a great deal and a good excuse to grab a beer!", "Came across them at Courtyard Brewery over the weekend and was so glad to see vegan options. I ordered two of the vegan cheesesteaks. The wait was quite long (about 25 minutes) but they were busy. I would say it was worth it! We absolutely loved the cheesesteaks. My husband loves a good one and has missed them since we've been eating vegan. Definitely impressed and will miss them in Houston.", "I love Trillys. I've had about 8 sandwiches from them over the last few months. They are always consistently so delicious. This is an amazing value. These guys provide excellent customer service.

So much meat on my sandwich, perfectly cut steak! I had the pickle fries and I recommend them too!", "Love that they have vegan options! Tried the regular vegan philly last night but look forward to trying the others. Especially since they moved to my neighborhood. Too Hungary to stop for a pic.", "I know this place is fairly new, but my review does not discriminate on new or established businesses especially when it comes to their taste and service. \n\nSetting: As mentioned above, this place is fairly new as the building was once Mid City Pizza so they are in the process of remodeling the interior. There are about 5-6 tables inside that each seat 2-3 people each with 1 picnic table outside. There is a small table holding condiments and napkins. Other than that there is nothing else staged or placed around the interior. \n\nService: You would just walk into the building and order from the small cutout in the wall. From time of order to actually receiving my order was about 25 minutes. Now granted - this wouldn't be as bothersome if it were a normal sit down restaurant, but these are essentially sandwiches. To make matters worse; during the waiting period to receive the food a total of 4 other individuals would go order and receive their entire order within (~5) minutes! Aside from ordering the normal Philly... I had already received my side (now appetizer) of pickle fries within 5 minutes of order. Had to go up to the window and ask on the status of my order and they assured me that 'it's on the way'. \n\nFood: The pickle fries are good because they don't have an overpowering dill flavor it and its batter remained intact and was well dressed onto the pickles. It would have been a great compliment to the Phillys if it weren't cold. The Philly was a bit disappointing as the portions of beef seem a bit stingy in contrast to initial observations as underneath the meat was more peppers and onions than the meat itself. The meat was fairly average and the onions/peppers was disappointing as it was bland, cold and soggy. The two didn't go well together as it was similar to have refrigerated onion and pepper microwaved placed underneath a freshly cooked beef. The main highlight of the Philly cheesesteak was the bread!", "Cheesesteak was delicious and the price was right. Well stuffed but didn't fall apart. Counter dudes were chill too. Will definitely be back, nevermind the fact that I live much closer to liberty.", "Really pleasantly surprised by Trilly. Called in an order at 11:50pm (10 mins before closing...sorry) and not only was it ready within about 8 minutes, it was also DELICIOUS. Split the original cheesesteak and buffalo chicken. Original cheesesteak was almost on par with ones I've had in Philly, and though the buffalo chicken tasted more like chicken + that garlicky sauce they put on gyros than buffalo sauce, it was delightful. I will most certainly be back.", "I got the vegan philly. It was real good. Bread was perfect, peppers and onions were nice. It could have used some jalepeno but thats just my personal taste. The seitan was good", "Originally being from Philadelphia, I was suspect about having a true Philly Cheesesteak. Lots of attempts, but most fell terribly short, usually the bread was just off. Trilly's actually has the bread shipped from Philly, Amaroso's which makes a true cheesesteak. Not only the bread they actually have wiz!! Well done Trilly, well done!" ]

To start, we had the street-style paneer which had triangled paneer with a spicy coating and some fried vegetables... This was delicious and spicy and the paneer had a wonderful bite to it. We also got the Manchurian, which was made of cauliflower coated in a delightfully crispy batter and drenched in a delicious sticky spicy sauce. My friends couldn't believe that there was no meat in this dish as it was so flavorful. And finally we got the Bombay sliders, which were my favorite. The patties were made from potato and tasted kind of like the filling in a Samosa... And they came with delicious sauces! For dinner, I got the Paneer masala which was heavenly. My friends got the chicken tikka masala and the lamb masala which they both really enjoyed. What I think elevates this restaurant compared to a lot of the Indian food that I've had in St. Louis was not only the appetizers, but the excellent cocktails we had. My friends both had the Bomberry mules, which were delicious blueberry mules, swirled with a stick of cinnamon... It all came together very nicely.

In the meantime, go try Turmeric but bring your patience - you won't be sorry - the food is definitely worth the wait!", "Second visit to try some new items on menu and was suitably impressed.\nSome initial hiccups with service as the restaurant is new and staff seems to be in training. \n\nBut the food is phenomenal- the New Zealand Lamb chops on point and Chilli cheese nan was just amazing. \nBar was extremely busy but Zach was trying to keep up with a smile! \n\nBe patient guys and you will not be disappointed..", "I'm from the Baltimore area and have yet to find anything close to this in Maryland. Best Indian food I've ever had. The flavor...so rich and complex. All fresh ingredients...and the garlic Naan! Holy smokes. Talk about melt in your mouth. I plan to come here again before I leave." ]

[ "4.5 stars\n\nRestaurant is at the new Rosewood Miramar resort on the beach. Amazing view restaurant... its almost on the sand. Heaters keep you warm outside. Had the cioppino. It was good but well short of the best I have ever had. Shrimp was a bit mushy and the soup base was a bit too watery and the flavor was a little off. Still worthwhile given the great view. Also had the filet which was tasty but not steakhouse quality. Book early on opentable as I think the best times might be reserved for hotel guests.", "Carusos is a new restaurant in the Rosemont Miramar. Carusos is a white table restaurant that has room for improvement. Upon our arrival to the hostess counter a waiter or a busboy told us someone would be there shortly. It seem like it took five minutes before we saw the hostess. We had reservations and asked for a table inside because it was chilly. Instead of working with us first the hostess took the couple behind us and sat them first. After we finally sat at a table no one brought water to the table until I asked. It took forever for someone to ask us for drinks and discuss the menu. Staff was walking around our table attending other tables and not paying attention to us. This was a disappointment for what's the supposed to be a caliber restaurant. There is a lot of room for improvement for a white table restaurant.", "I made reservation at 6:30 on Sunday. We came on time, the restaurant didn't look busy, however, the host was chatting with someone. We waited for 5 minutes to be seated. After we sit down, nobody brought water at least for another 10 minutes until we asked for water and waiter. The food was good, the service was very disappointing. From the time we sit down till we got water or waiter, it took 15 minutes. And the staff walk around, the restaurant was not busy. We felt like we got ignored or not welcomed. That's not the service we expected.", "Beyond amazing! I have extremely high standards when it comes to fine dining and Caruso's exceeded them all! On par or exceeding my previous personal favorite local dining experiences which were at San Ysidro Ranch and Lucky's. We tried a wide variety of drinks, starters, main courses and deserts and everything was to die for. The service, food and atmosphere was truly five star! I highly recommend the NY Wagyu, Baked Alaska and the sea bass crudo, but from our experience it's impossible to order wrong. A special thanks to the amazing staff who were beyond attentive, friendly and fun and thank you to Dan and Wyatt. And to the Chef, all I can say is WOW! I'll be returning as often as I can.", "I wrote a review of Rosewood resort's Malibu farm restaurant a short time ago and I was a little negative on the service, but Caruso's is a different story. \nCaruso's has some really great food and service quite good (Francisco was our waiter). The food came delivered by the chef with some good information. My wife's strawberry gazpacho was world-class. Impressive wine list too!\nThe prices run high, but one must accept this; with the fantastic ambience, elegance and dining in comfort nearly right on the beach in Montecito.\nI had the Caesar and Cioppino (certainly not your basic soup & salad). My dessert (pictured) should speak for itself.", "Entree served late and cold. Indifferent service. Entree came back still cold. They left it on the bill. That charge became the indifferent waiter's gratuity. Would never go back to this over priced and mediocre restaurant. Too many other excellent places to eat in Montecito and Santa Barbara. Nice hotel though. Hotel tries really to please but Caruso's is a miss. Way too loud too!", "I want to thank Chef Mossimo and the staff for an amazing dinner experience. The steak filet was one of the best we ever had. The other meals, pasta and black cod, were also 5 star. Thank you Team Caruso!", "The whole ambiance is beautiful, but the food was disappointing for the price we paid. I ordered the tuna tonnato, which consists in four slices of a seared tuna, green beans and a reduction sauce, as well as a cream-based foam. The green beans were extremely cold and undated, whilst the fish was way too salty. Even the seared part of it was cold too. For main dish, I ordered the lasagnette al pesto. I was not surprised with what I got. The pasta was perfectly cooked, but the dish as a whole was blend. We ordered the Johny walker blue dessert to share, which was the high point of our dining experience. Really good. I would go back just for that, or just to have a drink with a nice view. Unfortunately, not for the food.", "I enjoyed dining at Caruso's, there was even free caviar during the meal. You should dress up if you are eating here and try to get an ocean view seat. The staff was attentive and made good recommendations. The gnocchi was my favorite dish of the night.", "We had a post Fathers Day family dinner here last night and it was absolutely wonderful. We were so impressed with every single dish (and we ordered 3 courses each!) and the service was unbelievably top notch. Mauricio was so polished and poised and helpful throughout the entire meal, we could not have asked for better! He made great recommendations, timed out courses perfectly, and had a fantastic knowledge of the wine menu. He was friendly and courteous and oh so kind. We will be back because the food was superb, Mauricio was magical, and we live right up the street! We also were very impressed with the lovely valet staff. They were attentive and aware, and had our car waiting for us when we made it back to the front drive to depart. Very impressive anticipatory service and attention to detail! They have clearly been well trained by a great management team." ]

The food is oh-so on point and juicyful(yep, just made that 1 up special for this description)! I had the chicken sandwich(stop, drop, n roll heat), whiting sandwich(cry baby heat), beans, and turnip greens. Everything was seasoned to perfection, no need for the salt and pepper shakers here, palette mastery is their specialty . You need nothing but your appetite and napkins for this foodgasmic(yes I did it again) excursion. I was left feeling fully satisfied in the end!", "The food tasted just like the Franklin location. However, they are very slow and unorganized. I still gave four stars because I understand they just opened. I received my order exactly forty minutes after I called it in. I was quoted twenty to twenty five minutes. There was live entertainment that was pleasant, but as I waited I noticed that only about 4 people had their food. The other twenty or so people were looking towards the kitchen waiting for their food.", "So delicious!!!! The cry baby seasoning is the perfect amount of heat. The catfish is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! EAT HERE! It's delicious and fresh!!!!!", "I've been eating Big Shakes for a while now. Sorry but the chicken tastes nothing like the Franklin locations. I've been three times just to see if they needed to adjust. The Franklin locations are full of flavor and the meat tastes marinated. This Rivergate location lacks flavor and everything is TOO SALTY. My fries have been cold every time I've gone. Today was a fifty minute wait for my food. I'll just stick to the Franklin location when I'm craving their style of hot chicken.", "Clean restaurant and friendly staff. Good choice of varied items on the menu at very reasonable prices. Parking is limited, so I hope that doesn't deter people from visiting. Plenty of seating inside with TVs around to watch. \n\nWe orders the 3 tenders with 1 side (French fries). Tenders came out hot and fresh, and fries were crinkle cut with mild seasoning. I ordered the \"stop, drop and roll\" heat level. It's supposed to be their medium, but I would say it's a little bit hotter than a normal medium. Regardless, it was very good, and just the right amount of heat (translation - sinuses were opened but not a full on running river). I would classify the spice level as more of a peppery type heat versus a cayenne or wet type of sauce. \n\nOverall, a good meal for a good price! I'm anxious to go back and try out more sides.", "I love hot chicken and Big Shakes does not disappoint. Huge portions that you can mix and match for a tasty meal. The hot fish was a surprise as was the milkshakes and deep fried oreos. A treat for the whole family", "This place is jumping, as soon as you walk in you can feel the energized atmosphere. The room is set up so you que around the outside walls, which is smart.

Because if they can make food taste good then the spice is just an afterthought. The strips were juicy and full of flavor. The portions are large enough for you to have leftovers of your not starving.\n\nLeg Quarter meal $7.49\n**Both meals are served on a piece of toast to soak up the extra spice and sauce. With the leg quarter meal we got greens as a side. They were ok though on the salty side, which I like, my companion did not.

Next time with the extra flavors!!\n\nPics attached, enjoy.", "During Super Bowl, we saw their commercial (which was hilarious).

Pretty yummy\n\nOur kid wanted fish, but their kids meals don't offer that, so I just ordered a piece of catfish on the side.

Take out breast quarter was better than the rest.", "Spicy and good. Atmosphere... great music like a hang out spot for those that find spicy soul food as hip as a coffee shop.

Food made with love and attention to detail. Mouth, stomach and eyes find pleasure here. Fresh and flavorful ingredients go a long way when you add magic. Great new local place ensconced between a cocktail bar with outdoor seating and a coming brewery. Order at window and they bring to you. Great place to meet up with friends and people watch.", "Cubaneo has just opened a few days ago and every time I drove by the place looked popping. So I came by last night to grab a bite. I don't remember when was the last time that I got a decent meal and a good cocktail after midnight in Santa Barbara. So heck yes I love the place.\n\nThey open from 4pm til 1am, also have late night menu serving from 10pm til 1am. You order food from Cubaneo and drinks from Shaker Mill. There are two separate counters. There was no hostess so I was a little confused at first but it's not hard to figure out. \n\nWe ordered the Medianoche sandwich, a side of mama's beans and rice, and a pina colada. The sandwich was delicious, soft, melted in your mouth. I like the soft sweet brioche bread very much. The rice and beans were really good also, came with generous portions. They tasted so good with their homemade hot sauce and garlic sauce. We brought some hot sauce togo in the end. \n\nWe also tried the Ropa Nueva - braised beef short ribs and Plato Mixto with marinated chicken and shrimps. They were all amazing. You got beans, rice, protein, fried plantains and yucca, and a side of salad. That is an ideal meal right there for me. \n\nThe place overall looks great, with tropical vibe decorations. There is some remodeling in the back, maybe another business soon will come later. I see a lot of potential in Cubaneo and Shaker Mill and so glad to see they are doing great in this location since it had been left empty for a while. \n\nI will return and bring my friends here to try out the rest of their menu.", "This place is great! The ropa neuva dish is outstanding. Well balanced and the short rib is cooked perfectly. Cubano sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I've had in Santa Barbara.

Great cocktails to compliment from the Shaker Mill up front!", "A much needed addition of quick but quality food. You can definitely tell they thought out all the dishes. Going to be one of my go to places from now on.", "This is the late night food spot Santa Barbara has been waiting for!!! \n\nCubaneo is serving up fresh, tasty, and quality Cuban inspired dishes for a price you can't beat. I have been three times since it has opened about two weeks ago and I will definitely be back for more. So far I have tried the plato mixto with grilled chicken, the medianoche, as well as the ropa nueva--all to die for and super affordable pricing! And the house made hot sauce...WOW! I can't wait until they start opening for lunch soon! \n\nSuper cool atmosphere from day to night!", "I stumbled upon this place while I was having a drink at Shaker Mill. They are located in the same building but are two seperate businesses! I've only had cuban food a few times but have never had it in Santa Barbara, so I'm excited to have a new cuisine in town! They are open currently from 4pm-1am so they are open late night which is awesome! From 10pm-1am they have a more limited late night menu but they still have a cuban sandwich and the Plato Mixto on this menu with other sides as well!\n\nI looked over the menu and had no idea what to get. Everything looked so good on the menu it was hard to decide! I ended up going with the Cubano sandwich since I was told that was the most popular. My friend got the Plato Mixto with shrimp and we got a side of the Yucca Fries to share. After we ordered we grabbed our silverware and then headed to a table. They brought the food to us which was super nice!\n\nOur food came very quickly even though they seemed fairly busy. The Cubano sandwich was delicious!!! It was fresh and tasty! The ham and cheese were so good together I loved the sandwich and mustard aioli added a nice kick to it. The Plato Mixto with shrimp that my friend got was huge! It came with yucca fries, a salad, rice and beans. She asked for no beans because she didn't want beans but typically it comes with beans. The Yucca Fries were my favorite part!! They were cooked perfectly soft but sweet and had this creamy aioli to go with them. \n\nThis place was so delicious I love it! I can't wait to come back here soon to try other things on their menu. Once they open for lunch I know I will be coming here all the time. I'm excited to have a Cuban restaurant now on state street! :)", "Long awaited, this new Cuban restaurant is just what Santa Barbara needed! The food is amazing; very authentic with perfect seasoning and balance. The Arroz Con Pollo, Ropa Nueva and Plato Mixto with the pork roast were all delicious. And the Yucca fries and platanos Maduros-YUM!! The black beans are the Real Deal! It's counter service, and then there's plenty of seating for both the cocktail bar, Shaker Mill, and Cubaneo customers. Super fun vibe, lots of great energy and great music.", "Their \"Pollo y ajo\" sandwich was delicious. Their Cubano sandwich with pork was ok; pork could have had more flavor.

I personally they have the best brisket in town, and TG this new location seems to run out slower than their other more established locations...\n\nSERVICE: great, very friendly. They are happy to answer questions about their favorite cut of meat as well as how hot their hottest sauce is (btw pretty hot but no Shut the Cluck Up level)\n\nEXPERIENCE: really great, happy they opened up a new location that's super central but actually has a decent parking lot (cough cough downtown). Sit at the bar or the beer garden, this place is a fun place to hang out w friends or family.\n\nVALUE: great, as BBQ tends to be. You can get a sandwich and side for $8-10 or meat plus two sides for $12-14ish. Definitely leaving full!\n\nSUMMARY: the new Martin's locationdoes BBQ right- real flavorful food in an accessible location at a great price. Would definitely come back", "Staying next door and came in for dinner because i was exhausted and it was convenient. I had the pulled pork shoulder dinner platter and it was amazing! Very juicy and tender. The Devils nectar is an amazing spicy BBQ sauce! Prices are reasonable and the bartenders were very hospitable. For just stumbling upon this place I was pleasantly surprised! Would definitely recommend it! Yum!", "Came here on a Thursday afternoon for take out. There was already a line when I arrived at opening time, which I thought was a good sign. The manager was friendly and greeting people at the door. She let me know there is a separate line for take out, which was helpful. When I got to the takeout line, I asked the cashier if they had burnt ends, she replied \"no because they take too long\". Not exactly something you want to hear from a BBQ joint. I understand them not having them, but someone needs to tell her to give a different reason. I ordered the brisket and smoked turkey. Each came with two sides, I got hush-puppies, mac and cheese, Cole slaw, and baked beans. I thought everything was good. Not great and certainly not worth the $16 and $15 price tag respectively. I felt as though for that price, I should have probably had enough leftover for another meal. The sauces they have are good, again, nothing that blew my mind. I will give credit where it is due, the smoked turkey really exceeded my expectations. It was tender, juicy and delicious. I would go back for the turkey, but get my sides elsewhere. Overall, after hearing how highly others talk about Martin's, I am not sure if I missed something or was just there on an off day.", "I got the brisket tray with cornbread hogcake and potato salad. He got the whole hog sandwich with broccoli salad. We both enjoyed our food and service was on point.", "My husband and I came to Nashville wanting to find a perfectly smoked brisket. We had tried 2 other places before Martin's where the brisket was terrible, but we were thrilled with Martin's! The brisket was perfectly cooked, and we also had some pork, Mac and cheese, and broccoli salad. We probably will even go back again before we leave because it was so good! The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because the bartending staff was not friendly at all.", "For Tennessee BBQ, Martin's BBQ is not so great to me. Tried it again tonight for the 2nd time. It's dry and isn't even tasty without dousing it with sauce. TN BBQ is even good without sauce on it. The beans are good. Slaw's okay...but you have to \"doctor it up\" with salt and pepper. Meat was like that too -- not seasoned enough.", "I stopped in here for dinner with my friend while visiting Nashville after we smelled the delicious meat cooking outside! The servers and line were all extremely efficient and quick to get people's orders and then seat them. The food also came out reasonably quickly so we didn't wait long. The smoked chicken was amazing as well as the broccoli salad. The pulled pork we shared was a little bland, but the sauces to put on it were so great that it totally made up for it. I'd recommend a visit in!", "I've frequented several Martins locations and, perhaps because it's still new, this one did not meet normal Martin's quality. Also, it would be great if there were other bbq sauce options out and available for people who do not want the kind on the tables.", "Worse BBQ I have ever had........I see why the have gallons of sauce at the table...... The pork was dry as hell", "I got the big brother sampler. It had 4 baby back ribs, 6 oz of brisket and two sides. I got the Cole slaw and green beans as sides. Ribs didn't have any flavor. They came off the bones but didn't fall apart which is nice. They were a little dry also. Brisket tasted good. It fell apart nicely, nice color but way too much fat. I like a little fat on mine but it was almost half. The green beans were bad. It was almost like they mixed pulled pork in with them and sprinkled pepper. The pepper over powered all of it. The slaw had a nice crunch but that was it. No flavor and a little runny. Over all it was pretty bad." ]

The restaurant really reminded me Tibet and made me miss being there.", "I visited White Yak w/GM & JJ during their soft opening. I've had Himalayan before, but hadn't seen any in Philadelphia. Needless to say, I was excited hear not only is it in Philly, but a stone's throw away from my house!\n\nUpon arrival, we were greeted by the owner. Of course, we had to ask advice and recommendations and there were plenty. We each started with the Butter Tea since that seemed fairly unique. We also shared the sausage appetizer and each order an entree.\n\nIf you like butter, the butter tea is designed for you. I'm glad I tried it, but probably will not be getting a second cup. As for the sausage, it was certainly a fair portion for the 3 of us to share and a dish I would recommend. It was tasty in a way I can't quite describe and unlike other sausages I've had. It also came pre-sliced, making it easy to grab a bite at a time.\n\nI went with the Momo Khotrak - basically a momo sampler. It comes with 2 beef, 2 chicken, 2 spinach, and 2 potato. To my surprise, the potato may have been my favorite. The beef and chicken would good as well, however, I wasn't a fan of the spinach. Going fried (vs steamed) is the way to go (imho). The house sauce that comes with them adds a little kick, but isn't too spicy. Considering my late lunch and share of the sausage, this dish was enough to fill me up.\n\nGM enjoyed her Lentil soup based on her not leaving a single drop. You'll have to wait for JJ's review to judge the ThukNgo, but again the clear dish is probably a good sign. The beef curry dish is next on my to order list, as it came stacked with beef.\n\nRounding out the review, as you can judge from the 5-star rating, the rest of our experience was excellent. Good service and a clean restaurant to pair with excellent food!", "Really great food and service! We came for lunch around 2pm and had the chicken momo and the momo Khotrak. The dumplings were very nicely filled with good quality meat and vegetables. The Khotrak is served fried and they came out delicately browned on one side - perfectly done. The steamed momo was nicely firm, not watery or doughy. I tried the buttered tea since I've never had it before, and it was delicious! The server described the difference between how they prepare it here versus Tibet. Apparently here it is with a lighter butter with red tea. I thought it was delicious. We'll be back for dinner and to try dessert!", "Today was spent helping my grandparents. Their air conditioner conked out, they did not want to get a repairman in or buy a replacement, so I was off in the wilds of Roxborough, purchasing fans of various sizes for their home against my better judgement. Elderly folks can easily succumb to heat stroke, but who heeds my advice?\n\nListening to my grandfather bitch about my inability to repair their dead a.c. due to 'the poor schooling you kids get these days' did not add to the joy of this day. I won't say how long I have been out of school, but even if I was still in high school or college, I know of no body of higher learning (other than vocational school) that offers HVAC classes as part of the regular curriculum. \n\nMy grandfather is bedridden and has been for some time. I knew that my Nan needed a break from him so I took her out for a bit to pick out fans. A kind neighbor helped us move him to his wheelchair and she took him into her air conditioned place for some home made cobbler, ice cream and a few icy cold g and ts that I knew he would indulge in on the down low while he could. \n\nI'd already read some of White Yak's reviews last night and since we'd been to Stanley's Hardware to price air movers and planned to go back again after Nan looked at more elsewhere, I asked her if she wanted to get a little wild and check out some Himalayan food. She said she did not want to be away too long because she just knew that Thaddeus (my grandfather) would be \"sneaking the sauce with THAT woman,\" so we opted for a quick snack at White Yak along with a to go order as a break in our errands. \n\nWhite Yak is very clean and minimalist. We were greeted right away and told to sit where ever we wished and given a menu. I ordered the La-Ping for us to nibble while we decided on food to go. This is an appetizer and is described as 'chilled mung bean starch noodles served with garlic vinaigrette and spicy sauce.' The sweet, soft spoken waitress said it was spicy and asked if that was okay. Fine with us. \n\nShe was not kidding. The chilled, thick, house cut broad noodles bathed in a semi-firey thin red sauce garnished with parsley or cilantro had us reaching for our water glasses but going back for more of the spicy, chubby noodle carby goodness. For $4.95, this is a generous sized app that can easily be shared by 4 people. We asked for the rest to go since the portion was way to much for just the 2 of us as a nibble. \n\nWe placed our meal order, talked about the marital foibles of the neighbors and the insufferable heat, then in no time at all we received a nicely packed white paper carry bag-with a handle-and we were on our way. We ordered enough to share with the nice neighbor aka That Woman. \n\nOur 'main' was Phaktsee ($13.99) described as pork bacon stir fried with green garlic and cilantro. It comes with white rice. We also got an order of Tibetan chicken satay. 3 small skewers for $4.95. Pass on this. The chicken was very dry, there was no sauce or discernible seasoning. \n\nMy now tipsy grandfather ate one satay (I slathered it with the plummy sauce) and a few spoonfuls of rice. He commented on how The Ridge was changing and asked why we did not bring him a hot dog with sauerkraut and a cold beer. \n\nNan ordered the steamed Momo with vegetable filling and house spicy sauce. For $11, we got 8 dumplings-odd green dough holding a spinach and egg mixture that was earthy and vegetal. Next time, I'd opt for fried rather than steamed and I'd pick potato or chicken as the filling. These were just okay. Not bad just not special in any way. Two sauces came with the dumplings-a plum type sauce and a reddish orange, mildly spiced one. Neither really complimented the dumplings. The dumplings were not a big hit but they all disappeared. \n\nThe ladies loved the Phaktsee and my Nan said next time she would go for a double order. I did not find it extraordinary but it was satisfying and comforting with bacony, porky goodness. Everything was made with very fresh ingredients. \n\nThe neighbor lady went all swoony for the La-Ping and eventually went for a slice of white bread to mop up all the chili laden sauce left in the container. We finished up with her warm cobbler and vanilla ice cream, then got my grand situated back home in bed with fresh sheets, cool, clean pajamas and several fans circulating the air in his room.\n\nI really liked White Yak. I don't feel like my Nan and I choose things that best show cased Himalayan cuisine but the proprietors were courteous, humble and helpful, the space had a nice, serene feel and it was very exciting to see a totally new kind of ethnic place on a stretch of Ridge Avenue that always makes me feel has been permanently frozen in the late 50s/very early 60s. I will certainly be back for more food from The Kingdom of the Sky. \n\nPlease try this place. I think the other reviewers and myself really and earnestly want these folks to succeed.", "Very good! My first time at a Himalayan/Tibetan restaurant. Good flavor, not overpowering. I had the beef curry over rice which was good and we shared an order of dumplings which were also very good! The staff was friendly and dinner for two ended up below $50 with tip included. Would go back again." ]

Good things come to those who wait. I waited a long time for my meal like everyone else has...and it was worth the wait, so stop your fussing, Smyrna peeps. I will wait for my chicken. The staff is friendly, place is clean. I was greeted at the door! I was attended by great people. And the food did not disappoint. Congrats to Mack's hot chicken on their Chicken crack because my husband and I are hooked. The sides are delicious and have y'all tried their banana pudding?! OMG! That right there is bomb. (sorry, New York native here) We had their potato salad and it was terrific. I'm so happy that this place opened so close to home, now i can get my Hot chicken fix whenever I want! My husband was also happy that the spice of the chicken was not vinegar based but a delicious cayenne dry rub! How awesome is that! Wonderful staff, great food! Don't like to wait, place your order, run your errands and come back. That's what I did. WWe will definitely be coming back.....often.", "Went twice in their first week. Had the Mack Attack-level chicken the first round and switched to the catfish the second time. Both were really good. Like, exceptionally good. I just had Hattie B's last week when a friend was visiting downtown and I think Mack's is simply better food. The Mac and cheese and those collard greens are crazy good. \n\nBoth times there was a wait. But, they're a brand new restaurant, getting their rhythm. The quality of the food far outweighs the frustration you might feel while waiting. You won't be disappointed.", "Wow, amazing food. There were about a dozen people ahead of me and I waited about 25 minutes. The food we had was well worth the wait, perfectly cooked & prepared. Definitely the best hot chicken in the area.", "The chicken is excellent and extremely spicy probably the hottest in middle TN area. Mac and cheese is on point and everyone who works here is extremely nice. It's cooked to order so call ahead if you're in a hurry", "Simply great! Some of the hottest chicken I've had, and it was right off the fryer. There's a level of heat for everyone, which is always welcoming. I'm from Memphis so I'm not that used to Nashville style hot chicken. I had \"hot\" and it's probably the hottest I can stand to eat. Also, the baked goods are phenomenal. I had cheese cake after hot chicken. Finally, there's usually a wait so don't expect to have hot chicken in a pinch. However, as with most things in life, good things require a little wait. Needless to say, it's worth going.", "You guys rock. Great customer service, clean dining area, and fresh food. If you haven't tried it, try it today. The food is definitely cooked with love. I'll be back.", "I am very fussy about my hot chicken. Mack's Hot Chicken was \"right on\" for our dinner tonight. I am so glad they got shop near my home. Good job!!!!! Order the tenders hot. Its hot enough plenty" ]

[ "I would love to give this place 5 stars but being so new there is still some room for improvement only because I think they are getting their footing. Give them some time to figure out their flow and they are going to be awesome. They have a large bar, a huge dining area, and an outdoor patio. I love their decor. They clearly spent a lot of time and money with decorations and \"feel\". They are an Irish themed pub so 90% of the beers on tap were of that nature with a handful of your typical domestics. They had a nice looking menu left over from their St Paddy's soft opening. Another patron who has been to Ireland multiple times to visit family spoke to the authenticity of their food. More food options to come, they say. I'd like to check them out again in the near future.", "A group of friends and I came to their soft opening. Not only is the staff very friendly, but the food was delicious. Everyone cleaned their plates. We plan on making this a monthly hangout/dinner for the group.", "Giving 3 stars is generous as I sit here writing this while we are waiting for the check, which was requested over 30 mins ago. The place is cool inside. It looks like the previous restaurant The Mill, left a lot of the decorations behind. I was a little disappointed in my experience here (first impressions mean a lot). First, the menu was small and the server stated that they will add to it overtime. I don't really understand how you open a place with an unfinished menu. However, I had the mum's chicken curry. It was ok. The only issue was the portion was extremely small and the rice was under cooked. We were going to order more food, however, the service was extremely slow that by the time he came back to the table we were just ready to go. Wait their is more, we had to wait on our second drink so we were not going anywhere. It took the waiter well over 20 mins to bring them and we asked him to bring the check with the drinks and he failed to do so. He dropped the drinks and ran. This place has a ways to go if they want to be successful here. I felt like the service could have been a lot better considering it wasn't too busy. I just don't think there is anything really that would entice me to return.", "The service was slow paced, however, everyone was very friendly. The owner (I think) stopped by all tables and checked in, which was nice. The mashed potatoes weren't made yet so the wait was even longer. I got the calamari and forges pie (ground beef and root vegetables with mashed potatoes on top) food was served at very hot temperatures! Like let it sit for ten minutes before eating. But it was great! IDK if they had an off morning, but I'm sure give them a little time and they will be perfection.", "A solid new restaurant in the Bloomingdale area. It's just opened, so the menu continues to grow; however, everything they already offer already will have you making hard decisions on what to try for your first visit. \n\nI'm glad to see the decor from the Mill survived! It's a very cool venue to dine in. They have a solid selection of Irish potables at the bar and there's enough menu offerings available that will easily satisfy those diners not looking for traditional Irish fare.\n\nThe Gaelic football is one of the seriously better pretzel and beer cheese dip combos I've ever encountered. Your tastebuds will wholeheartedly affirm that there's beer in there! Those pretzel sticks...warm, soft, fresh and salted just right...well, it definitely evokes the urge to form a pile-up on the field and fight over the last one left.\n\nThe bangers in the bangers and mash are seasoned amazingly well and the brown gravy that accompanies the dish might well have been forged (wink wink) in heaven. Everything dipped in there (veggies, fries, my burger) seems blessed to my tastebuds afterwards.\n\nThe farm house burger is a very serviceable pub burger that hits all the right notes for the hearty eater - high quality beef, ample bacon, sautéed onions, mustard, lettuce, tomato, an enveloping egg topper, and a warm brioche bun to hold things together. The Irish ale I ordered paired beautifully with it.\n\nWhile there's minor things that keep me from saying it's a five-star venue just yet (service is still getting their rhythm established, it's not quite on par yet with the beer and entree offerings found at Stein & Vine up the road, and I really miss the old quirky denim-covered Mill seats after sitting in the less forgiving new ones the Forge has), I'm thinking things will only improve for this great new local hang out. I'll be more than happy to keep working my way through the menu in the interim!", "Great atmosphere and carefully crafted food. Still in the soft opening phase. The owner is gracious, stopped by every table and made all feel welcome. There will be live entertainment. Our amazing waitress Logan made the entire dinning experience charming and fun. This will be a go to spot in no time.", "Walked in 7:30 on a Saturday night. They were very busy. We wanted to get a drink while waiting for a table. Walked to the bar. We waited about ten minutes. We had a gentleman who let us slip in by his seat while we stood. We never got any of the bartenders to even acknowledging us. One of the bartenders was putting away glasses and very involved with his conversation with a couple at the bar. He was not making any drinks or taking any orders. Really wanted to try the place because they just opened. Not going back. They didn't give customer service. The previous restaurant that was there didn't make it and if you can't wait on clusters that come in you won't make money.", "The best food in Brandon! With! Out! Question! Shepherd's pie, fish & chips, and even chilequilles(yes, I said chilequilles)! This place is an absolute gem in the Bloomingdale area; just a short drive from Riverview, Brandon, Valrico, Apollo Beach, and Tampa. Life-changingly good food for a really reasonable price. Great staff and service, and the best thing to happen to the Brandon area since highway 60 expanded from a two-lane road!", "Came here tonight wanting to love this new local pub, and left very underwhelmed! With that being said they did just open, they are still ironing out the kinks... however, I will still leave an honest review based on my own personal experience tonight. \n\nWe arrived at around 9pm tonight (Tuesday), the place was half full, full enough where you thought okay this place must be good. We stood at the door not sure if we seat ourselves or wait? We waited just in case. After a few minutes we flagged someone down to ask and she sat us, mind you at a HUGE ROUND TABLE that seated 6, and there was 2 of us. There were smaller tables around so we were confused? After looking at the menu she came back to check on us and I asked her if we could move to a smaller table, she said she sat us at the big table because because none of the smaller tables had been wiped down? Long story short she wiped a smaller table off and we moved. \n\nI will bullet point the rest, \n\n-service was mediocre\n-industrial feel decor, I believe this used to be where The Mill was located. \n-For starters we ordered 8 wings 3/5 stars not amazing, not horrible ($9.99) & The pretzel sticks with beer cheese 4/5 stars the beer cheese was pretty bomb! ($10.99 a little overpriced in my opinion for an appetizer and you only get 3 pretzel sticks, the price point should be around $7.99-8.99 max if you wanna keep the price at $10.99 add in 1 or 2 more pretzels) \n- For our meal we ordered the Forge burger $10.99 + bacon ($0.50 cents extra) and it came with chips (fries) it was decent, the bread was a bit soggy on the bottom, and bun was over toasted on the top and the burger was medium rare, prob could've been cooked just a bit more and the fries tasted as if they had been sitting for a while. The bacon was very thin. Overall I'd say 3/5 stars. My friend got fish and chips which she said the fish was over cooked, and the coleslaw was very hot as if it had been under a light she spit it out, our waitress did bring us a replacement but my friend still wasn't a fan of it. \n- They brought our meals out prior to the appetizer which confused us? So that was a turn off. \n\n***Please note they close at 11pm, but their kitchen closes an hour + before. They do a last call on food at 9:30, as we tried to order something to go around 9:45 and were unable to.***\n\nWith that all being said the owner/manager Robert I believe his name was (very handsome guy I might add) did come to the table and ask how everything was, we did share our experience and brought up the kitchen closing early, our food temps, ect and he did apologize said he would make a to-go order for us even though the kitchen was closed but at that point we were already turned off. He did offer to buy us a round of shots, which we declined, and explained that they were still getting into the groove and hopes we will come back and give them another chance. What would have been nice was maybe taking our appetizers off that came after our meal had been brought out. Over all it was an okay experience. Not sure if I will return right away, or ever. Possibly down the road after they figure out their groove. I would however suggest not closing your kitchen so early if you stay open to 11pm though and notifying your cooks, and food runners to bring out appetizers prior to meals.", "After seeing the reviews on Facebook and Yelp my friend and I were pretty excited to try this place. Upon arriving around 9pm it was still half full...good sign right??? We weren't sure if it was self seat or not....waited a few minutes before flagging someone down to seat us.\nThe service was mediocre. Definitely slow. After our waitress dropped our drinks she said she would be right back to take our order.....we waited a good 10-15 minutes before she returned. However I saw her cashing out a few tables so I just assumed that was the hold up.\nOnce we placed our order, wings and pretzels to start and The Forge Burger and Fish and Chips for the main course. The entrees came before appetizers, the fish was wayyyy over cooked, the chips (fries) were old and cold, the coleslaw was hot...like burnt my mouth hot so that was completely unappetizing. My friends burger looked good but her fries were also old and cold. Then when I asked to place a to go order I was told the kitchen had already done last call....at 9:45...last call...but they stay open until 11pm so that's weird and makes no sense. The manager I'm assuming, Patrick did offer to make my to go order after hearing how unpleasant our meal was but by then I was just ready to go. I get that it's new and he said they're trying to work some kinks out and I hope they do because it's a cute little spot. But the kitchen closing an hour before actual closing time makes no sense and is kinda inconvenient for anyone wanting to get a late bite to eat." ]

[ "Awesome breakfast! Went in for their soft opening today and was yet again impressed with their delicious egg breakfast and breakfast potatoes ( I always get them at their original cafe). My hubby loved his waffles and my son was beyond pleased with their breakfast tacos, saying \" its the best meal I've ever had for breakfast!\"", "Amazing food! Maybe the best chicken fried steak and roast pork shank I have ever had! Try the pork egg rolls too! Sooooo good. Im so very happy to have a new restaurant this good in the neighborhood!", "We stopped in tonight for dinner. What a wonderful addition to the neighborhood!! The service was great, food was on point and the atmosphere was perfect. We had the brisket loaded potato, pulled pork sandwich, fish tacos and buffalo chicken wrap. All were delish! Though they are still going through growing pains, we were very happy with this visit. When we asked the server what he recommended, he said, \" Oh I ate before I came to work. I'm not hungry.\" ...We all had a warm hearted laugh. He was young and will learn. We most definitely will be back. Thank you Candor!! We enjoyed the visit!", "The menu on the website is wrong. They don't have any thing I want. They should not have opened until they were ready. Won't be back anytime soon", "Disappointed. Was really looking forward to the new addition to the area. First off they are not offering all or even most of the items that are on the website. \n\nServer seemed very inexperienced. She took our order came back about 5 minutes later to confirm the items ordered, referring the the penne pasta as a panini. She was very slow to bring out drinks and refilled us only once.\n\nGuacomole was flat and lacking flavor. When we asked about how it tasted I told them. It was noted that it appeared not to have pico de gallo, no offer to replace, just told she would mention it to the chef.\n\nMain course was not good in so many ways. I ordered the Sauteed Shrimp with Garlic Lemon Sauce, that was described as a velvety lemon and garlic cream sauce. There was no discernible garlic. The cream sauce had separated and was a pool of butter. I did point this out when asked and was told that is how it should be. \n\nThe Grilled Chicken Penne Arrabiata was indeed spicy, but lacked any other inspiration.\n\nThe Garlic Toast was burnt, appeared not be be seasoned or buttered at all. We mentioned the toast was burnt, the response was it is done on the grill. So I guess that means they were going for charcoal inspired taste.\n\nVery disappointed in the whole meal and service.", "We arrived right about 11am on Sunday...I was looking forward to giving breakfast a try. Unfortunately I was advised I just missed the cutoff. Given the Sunday Church Brunch crowd...11 Am is too early for a hard transition to lunch. To add to that the table next to us was served some delicious looking breakfast food well after we ordered off the lunch menu. I ordered apple pie with a coffee...closest thing I could get to breakfast like food. Then to further my point another couple was seated near us left moments after being seated, said there was nothing on the menu they wanted.\nAnd just now while writing this another couple got up and walked out. I sure hope management takes note. There isn't a place within a 30 minute drive serving breakfast right now that isn't on a wait. This place has 8 of about 20 tables with customers right now. My wife was served her Cobb salad and my fried Apple pie came a few minutes later. On a positive note they were both tasty. And now about 45 min later a family of 4 just left without ordering. Not sure why...but would wager...they wanted breakfast", "Food was delicious. Management was quick to ensure everything was great. Wait staff is young, but seemed to be learning the ropes quickly. No complaints, great experience. The meal was a Saturday evening dinner.", "Food: very good\nAtmosphere: very nice\nMenu: good variety \n\nService: slow, especially when we were only one of 2 tables seated in the entire restaurant.\n\nOverall: I'd go again, but it's a solid \"meh\" for the experience.", "I gave this 1 star because we walked out after 10 minutes. We were promptly seated but ignored after that. We would have been happy with a comment of some sort. The manager even walked by, glancing at us as he went into the kitchen. Get your act together! We really wanted to like this place. It's beautiful inside. By looking at the other comments, it seems that the food is good. I recommend getting experienced wait staff, stay away from the teens. Good luck!!", "My family and I have been patrons at this dining establishment since its opening. Our first meal here was a date night dinner for my wife and I. My wife has allergies and asked about some items on the menu. The Lead Chef came out and discussed what kind of preservatives were used in the food which helped my wife with her food selection. Also, we asked about items which were not on the menu we were given, but on the website. He advised us the number of items would be increased as the business grew. Our waiter was very helpful throughout our dining experience, and aimed to please. I enjoyed the brisket sandwich with the house made potato chips. The brisket had a nice smoked flavor and was moist and tender. The chips were nice a crispy. My wife enjoyed the southwestern spring rolls. Which were large, fresh and tasty!!! There are not many good eateries in our immediate area. This definitely fills that gap. Do not hesitate to eat here. The food is fresh and they aim to please. The Candor Grille is for you if you are looking for great food at a reasonable price!!! The breakfast is especially tasty!" ]

[ "This was their Grand Opening night. I look forward to coming back. I normally don't like to go to restaurant's grand opening nights as I have had bad experiences. In fairness to the owners, it takes alot of work to get the kinks out and develop rhythm in the kitchen. This was not one of those occasions. The staff was friendly and attentive. The menu was diverse with interesting options. I was not feeling adventurous and stuck with Pad Thai, which was very good. I ordered medium and it was quite mild. However, my experience has been that the better Thai restaurants don't make \"hot\" overwhelming and that seems to vary, so I wanted to get an idea of their spice level before choosing hot. It was quite flavorful. I also got the Tom Yum soup and it was probably one of the better Tom Yum soups that I have had. Although, I did not have wine, they have a good wine selection and the interior has a very pleasing \"new\" appearance. This was a chance dining encounter as I had just made to decision to eat out and happened to see the restaurant. I hope to come back again. I definitely would recommend it.", "Thai station is the destination of your craving for gourmet Thai food. You will have smiles as your appetizer when you walk in and plate full of love within your entree then desserts are serving layers of good vibe, friendliness, and delicacy. An experience full of flavor that you can only find it here at Thai station restaurant.", "This is the nice restaurant and atmosphere. Their foods are so great. The coconut soup is the best. I will recommend come to try their foods.", "Thai Station is a very nice upgrade from the previous Thai restaurant. I didn't mind the look of the old place but you can tell they put some real effort into cleaning it up and making more a dining experience than a buffet. Nice place for a business lunch in the keystone area.", "Yes!!! Finally!!! A wonderful Thai restaurant near me in fishers!!! This is a new establishment so I couldn't wait to try it out with a friend. Small, lovely decor, and quick service, I love their lunch specials they have for 8.99! I always start at a Thai place with pad Thai and move on if I trust that since it's easy. I got it medium. The spice was perfect but I may try not next time. I absolutely loved the soup salad and spring roll too!!\n\nI took some to my co worker who was equally impressed too. Can't wait to go back!!!! Best Thai on the north side of Indy!", "We tried Thai Station as a recommendation from a friend and loved it! The staff is so friendly, the decor fresh and very current, but the best part was the food. The drunken noodles was amazing!! This may just be my new favorite Thai restaurant. Will definitely be back!", "This is a great place to eat Thai food everything is fresh and delicious greet place to take friends hang out and eat", "Great new restaurant! The basil salmon was beautifully presented and delicious with a wonderfully complex and subtle sauce. And the service was quick and attentive.", "I came here after a tough day of holiday shopping and it was worth it. Overall, the atmosphere was quiet and felt like home.

The straw was shaped as a rose and it was just amazing. If I could give them more than five stars I would.", "Totally delicious and a great experience. We stopped in for lunch & they have so many specials for $8.99. The specials include soup, salad & a spring roll.

[ "So excited that this cute Filipino food spot has opened in The Bourse!\n\nMy belly screamed for Inihaw (grilled pork with atchara over garlic rice) and Lumpia Shanghai, but I took a risk with the seasonal Shrimp Roll ... and didnt regret it! Omg those lovely chips are perfectly salty.\n\nThey have short hours (11A-4P, M-Sat) for now, but they expect to stay open later (7P) in the next few weeks.\n\nAny chance of mega bags of honest to goodness chicharon with suka? Please?!\n\nPrices are reasonable, location is accessible, staff super friendly, and food is delicious. I'm a fan!", "Was really excited to see this place open in the Bourse! The decor was fresh and colorful, the staff were helpful and friendly, and the little toys they gave out with your order number on them were fun and unique. I was surprised by their prices, which I guess may seem fine for tourists but are high for locals who are in the surrounding areas.\n\nI got the shrimp roll and my friend got the grilled chicken over rice. Both portions were tiny for the price - not really enough food for a filling lunch unless you're a bird. The chicken was two small skewers over a small serving of rice, and the shrimp roll was also very small, with a few chips. The shrimp roll was very good, served cold - light and well-marinated. The chicken skewers and rice were fairly bland. \n\nAll in all, we enjoyed the food but probably would not return at this point unless the prices and portions shift. Still leaving a 4-star review within the Bourse because if you're set on eating lunch there, this is a great place to go and the lunch prices at the Bourse are generally higher than average for the area for what you get.", "So excited to have a Filipino place so close by! The shop is cute within the newly renovated Bourse. Staff was friendly and they give you a cute toy with your order number on it. The wait was 5-10 minutes for my order of the hot dog and lumpia. The lumpia was really good! The hot dog was pretty small and for the price I expected a lot more. I shared this with a friend thinking an order each would be enough but we were both pretty hungry after. Worth a try, especially with the lack of Filipino places around but a bit on the pricey side for the quantity.", "Among the new eateries in the revamped Bourse food court is this Filipino spot. La Lo is a play on words in Tagalog for Grandma and Granddad - both of whom have inspired the owner of this eatery. The menu is not very long and indeed a few familiar Filipino dishes that I think could lend themselves easily to fast food status (e.g. Pancit) are not included. In fact there are only five items currently on the menu. Fortunately the one I tried - Lumpia Sariwa - was very good....(though I wasn't quite sure if I was to use the crepe underneath to roll up food in it and then eat it.) To me Lumpia are kinda like spring rolls so this def looked different. But it tasted good and had a very nice flavor mixture. A Gina calamansi juice was the perfect beverage to go with my dish. If you've never tasted refreshing Calamansi Juice, this is your opportunity.\n\nAll in all, it's nice to have something different in a food court and this Filipino café is indeed just that!", "Tried the special today. \"Tabaching\" consisted of garlic fried rice, 3 fried egg rolls, bbq chicken, bbq pork, lumpiang sariwa for $15. Overall, it tasted fine. \nThe bbq lacked the traditional flavor of pork or chicken Philippine bbq. Maybe it need to be marinated longer. It was a little dry too. The egg roll was good but needs a different tasting dipping sauce. The sariwa has different vegetables than the traditional sariwa so expect something different so you're not comparing. The garlic rice was flavorful but kind of dry . It seemed some rice grains were hard or not fully cooked. Also, $4.50 is steep for canned juices and $4 bottled soda. \n\nPS . The Filipino barrel man should be glued to the base. Filipinos will get it but could be very offensive to other cultures and tourists once the whimsical of it is discovered.", "Favorite place for filipino food when I can't eat home cooking. Long time fan of their inihaw. Just tried their aroz caldo and leche flan, can't wait to order again!", "The new Bourse is already looking promising! I've been following LaLo since they announced they snagged a plot in the new food court so I was super excited to make it down for the soft opening. I got the inihaw and took a bite from my boyfriend's longanisa dog. Admittedly, I can't pick a favorite between the two! The bun on the dog was grilled and anything super garlicky is a winner in my book! The chicken skewers in the inihaw dish were cooked to PERFECTION and the sauce was unlike anything I've ever had. My only critique is the rice was a bit undercooked so it still had a mild chalky texture. The portions themselves are also more of a snack size than a meal, so I hope in the future there are sizes added for us hungry folk", "It was my first time at La Lo (and at Bourse food hall) and my first time eating Filipino food. I was with a friend, and we didn't know what to order. We went with the Tabaching combo option which consisted of garlic fried rice, 3 fried spring rolls, bbq chicken, and lumpiang sariwa for $15. We wanted to get a taste of everything, and this was the perfect dish to share for both of our first experiences. \n\nSo I cannot speak to the authenticity in form or taste of La Lo's food, but I really enjoyed my first Filipino food experience there! The chicken skewers and fried spring rolls were really good. I really didn't know what to expect with the lumpiang sariwa, but it was similar to a crepe filled with sauteed vegetables and overall, pretty good! \n\nI'd definitely be back to try some of the other things they offer!", "First time at The Bourse and was excited to see this, especially as I saw a list online saying that this was the best offering at the Bourse. Overall, I think this place is probably the most interesting and unique vendor that I saw. \n\nAnyway onto La Lo experience, I ordered the Longanisa dog (sweet garlic pork sausage) for $10 and the mango juice for $3.50. The person working at the counter was pleasant and kind. However, they worked at a snail's pace to get my food. It was a bit past the peak dinner hour, and I was the only customer waiting. I really was not sure what they were doing, and I was seriously considering reminding them that I had ordered some food. However, I don't mind lackluster service if the food is good.\n\nOnto the food. The longanisa dog was quite pleasant. Certainly quite a departure from the traditional kielbasas, sausage, and hot dogs with the longanisa dog having more of a sweet more gentle flavor with notes of savory meat. While it is not the same thing, it kind of reminded me of Chinese roasted pork (Char siu). The bun was sweet with a bit of a chewiness that worked well. The entire sausage was seasoned with a creamy sauce and garnished with some scallion. The sauce added a much needed savoriness to the sausage and the scallion contributed a nice refreshing crunch. \n\nThe order came with a bit of chips that had a nice satisfactory crunch but was a bit under-seasoned. They did have spicy chili vinegar and fish sauce as condiments; the chips were improved with the addition of the former. \n\nThe mango juice ($3.5) was just from a can. It was good, but wow, was the markup steep. You could get it for a fraction of that cost from Amazon or from Chinatown.\n\nMy biggest complaint about this was the price. The entire $10 meal with the sausage+bun with the chips was contained in a paper container that would normally be used to store a small order of fries. Was the food good? Sure. Was it phenomenal? No-- it was okay. If the price point was lower, this would have easily been a 3 star review. I get that this is in a touristy part of town, but so is Chelsea Market in NYC. At least the food there is generally at least really good even for the price.", "This past weekend my boyfriend and I went to the Bourse on Saturday around 2 pm. I ordered the Filipino beef stew (Kaldereta) which came with garlic rice. It was really flavorful and delicious. Plenty of chunks of beef but the overall dish was a bit on the small side. \n\nA while back I also tried the longanisa dog at a festival. It was also very delicious and I would like to try it again at the bourse to see what the actual portion size is like. \n\nThe bourse is a really nice place to grab food and I'm glad to see places like La Lo here!" ]

[ "Angelos relocated from Haddonfield, NJ to South Philly. From their pizzas to their sandwiches to their Sunday Gravy- everything is awesome! The owner, Danny, puts his heart into his business and it shows through his connection with the customers and desire to only serve the best food. Try it out, you won't regret it.", "New pizzeria that relocated from Haddonfield. We tried a grandma's pie with pepperoni and a tomato pie. Both were great - it looked like some of their Jersey customers followed them across the bridge - the place was packed on its first Saturday night.\n\nWe'll be back.", "My friend was a huge fan of their pizza when they were in Haddonfield so I was eager to try them at their new Philly location. The cheese pizza with mushrroms was $19 before tax, and the wait was about an hour long (Friday of opening week, ordered around 5pm). There is a little bit of standing room, no tables, but some counter space around the edges. I would say this is definitely meant to be enjoyed as a take out spot for people in the area. Cash only for now.\n\nPizza was delicious. Quality ingredients, great crust and cheese. I'm excited to try the upside down pan pizza another time, and I'm hoping they can scale up/cut down the wait times since I'd love to be able to eat here more easily.", "Completely lives up to the hype. A week or so into being open and this place already stands out in a neighborhood with easily the best food scene in the city. Try anything and everything.", "Food was great minus the Caesar salad (they forgot the croutons). Hoping they get their shit together soon though. No phones yet. Walked in and placed my order and was told it would be ready in 30 mins. An hour later my order was finally ready.", "Went to Angelo's the Sunday after they reopened earlier in the week, from their unfortunate post-launch fire. \n\nArrived early afternoon ~1pm and there were already plenty of customers (although no line) and orders currently in the works. I was quoted 30min. for my order to be ready (the guy taking orders/manning the register was a great guy and total pro). I ran a couple errands (for some cannoli) and when I returned exactly 30min. later, my food was ready, as promised (off to a good start!). \n\nNow the important part...\n\nTHE FOOD:\nMy order:\n-Cheesteak, Cooper sharp w/ onions\n-The \"PFD\" sandwich\n-The \"Looch\" sandwich\n- \"Upside down jawn\" pizza, half pepperoni\n\n(All sandwiches served on famous Sarcone's seeded roll, one of my favorite in the entire Northeast). \nThe cheeseteak was great. Good steak portion, quality meat. \nThe two chicken cutlet sandwiches were amazing. You can taste the quality. You can tell everything is handmade and nothing is frozen. The chicken cutlets themselves are beautiful - perfectly thin (like grandma made), nice light breading, flavorful, not fried too dark or dried out. Portion was big, about 2 cutlets per sandwich, cut up. Secondly, the mozzarella is homemade and delicious. Has a great firmness/texture and flavor. The other components of the sandwiches were equally high-quality. \n\nThe specific pizza I ordered was a thicker crust variety. The dough was really impressive. The really nailed this, a delicious (sourdough?) starter that you can tell spent some time developing. Both in flavor and subsequent bubbling, etc. yielded impossibly dense yet airy crust, with great ratio of at bubbles, deep flavors and perfect sponginess with exterior crispness. I love bread and this was one of the finest examples I've come across. \nThe rest of it was great too obviously, flavorful stringy mozzarella, tangy tomato sauce, fresh basil, and my favorite example of pepperoni - the tiny kind that \"cups\" the grease when baked. \n\n\nIn summary, if I had to describe Angelo's in two words those would be \"quality\" and \"fresh\". Their quality ingredients sets them apart. You can honestly tell the owner loves this food and doesn't sacrifice anywhere. Portions were generous, prices were fair. I assume they're still working out some kinks with operations (and hopefully accepting credit cards soon) but their food is already flawless. \nI wish the owner, family, and employees all the best and I cannot wait for my next visit (I will definitely be a regular!)", "Been here twice in one week. Easily the best pizza in the city that doesn't require a dinner reservation. Anyone who give less than 5 stars should be kicked off yelp for life. While we waited for amazing mamas pie with fresh ground parm and basil on top they gave out free slices of some other amazing pizza. Cash only. Praying for delivery to get added to mix.", "By far the best pizza I've had! Theres no number or delivery service which can be a pain, but its well worth the wait.", "Pizza is my favorite food. I have had it all over the world from Italy to India and from the streets of Naples to the streets of New York. I moved to Philly four months ago and was waiting for great pizza. And, after trying the rest (or at least a few,) I found the best.\n\nThere were people there from South Jersey, Italy and Ohio waiting in a small area in front of the counter for steaks, chicken and the amazing pizza.\n\nThe first thing you taste is the quality of the toppings and cheese. The sauce is not overpowering but not too sweet or tart. The crust was crisp and reheated well. \n\nThis is not cheap pizza, nor is it really expensive. It was about $20 bucks for cheese and sweet Italian pie. The sandwiches looked great as well and run about $11 for a sandwich which will feed to hungry people.\n\nThis is worth traveling for.", "The cutlet sandwiches are seriously out of this world. I got the looch which came with long hots. Every bite just screams quality and fresh ingredients. I cant wait to try the \"drunk\" cutlet sandwich that comes with their vodka sauce. The fries were alright but their sandwiches can not be missed out. I've looked everywhere for a good cutlet sandwich in philly and finally found a home." ]

On top of all that, the food is very affordable, it is a great spot to grab a quick bite!", "Big, tasty, well made portions with friendly service. The one thing that I appreciate most from them is the fact that they are not skimpy on the protein--always a strong portion in every platter. The people are quick and attentive here. The restaurant itself is clean and well-maintained. I've never had a bad experience coming here. This place is definitely better than most restaurants of its kind in Chinatown\n\nBest soup/noodle: spicy beef ramen", "Great new place. Dirt cheap and CLEAN (Helps that its new). Great WonTon Noodle soup for $7 and their duck is plump, fat, and juicy.", "Went here for mid-week lunch with work colleagues. It was a solid 3 stars. Our table ordered various noodle soups and and a beef chow fun. The chow fun was pretty good. Noodles were cooked well and everything was flavorful. The duck was not as well flavored as some of the other duck places in C town. The soup broth was kind of bland. Service was pretty quick. There are probably 25-30 seats and the restaurant is on the small side. I think they may prepare whole roasted pig, too. There was one staring at us from a neighboring table during our meal (Chinese new year time). It was okay, but with so many choices in the neighborhood, don't know that we'll be venturing back anytime soon.", "Excellent food, fast service. Prices were on point. The duck was exactly how I remembered it tasting in Hong Kong! Will definitely be back!", "I've happily ordered from this place two days in a row! Yesterday I had some finger licking duck and honey roasted pork that was out of this world! Today I had sweet n sour chicken, my gf had the general tso chicken and fried cheese wontons. The sweet and sour and the wontons are easily some of the best I've ever had. Hopefully this place keeps the same energy and doesn't change things up because this place is a sure fire winner! I haven't raved about a place in Chinatown in quite a while. They're a hidden gem and I'm excited to sample the rest of their menu", "I don't know where folks got \"excellent service and food\" but with one waitress it took forever to get our order, plus don't think anyone even checked up on us the entire meal. Kind of just here's your stuff and here's your check. But besides the lackluster service, the food is key. The duck was all right but the menu is enormous. Not sure why or how this place sells everything from scallion pancakes and soup dumpling to duck, roast pork, chicken beef to Thai food and Japanese ramen. Would explain the lack of guidance in their food. I'm no food expert but I ordered a Beef Chow Fun and expected some beef. Instead we got 2 pounds of beans sprouts on top of super greasy noodles with a few pieces of beef. Also the green onions were still raw. Also, got the duck and roast pork combo platter. The duck meat was decent but the plate was just full of rice, not proportional. Plus lack of sauce just made it taste like eating a giant bowl of rice. Lastly, why are the floors super slippery? Almost fell.\n\nProbably not coming back again, eating in most of Chinatown Cantonese places would much rather go to M.Kee or Ting Wong. Might not be the cleanest but at least you know their food is good.", "Requested a meat and string bean in garlic sauce for $12-$13. Accompanied 6 little bits of hamburger. I have heard beneficial things from companions however, so perhaps a fluke.", "After trying all these duck places in Chinatown, I finally found my favorite restaurant for Cantonese noodle soup! \n\nFirst of all, the service is better than most Chinese restaurants. Secondly, I've been to this place quite a few times so far, it's always nice and clean. And the food - much better than restaurants like TingWong or SangKee! The meat is more flavorful and the broth is less salty but tasty. I highly recommend their noodle soup and lunch special. \n\nThis is not a place for date or group of friends hangout, but more suitable for casual dining and a quite bite. I'm a repeat customer.", "My family and I ordered takeout duck recently and enjoyed it very much, so we decided to come here for a casual meal last night. We ordered several entrees to share. Below is my review of each dish: \n\nShrimp Dumpling Soup - The shrimp dumplings are prepared Hong Kong style in a thin yellow wrapper. This is my absolute favorite way of making/consuming shrimp dumplings. The broth wasn't too bad either, it wasn't too salty and there was a peppery aftertaste. \n\n1/2 Peking Duck - The restaurant was running a special - $15.00 for half a Peking duck. The duck skin was crispy, flavorful, and the duck itself was lean. I really enjoyed this. They do duck very well here!\n\nSeafood Pan Fried Noodles - This was a \"miss.\" There was too much imitation crab and there was no flavor to the sauce for the noodles. \n\nTriple Delight - This was a dish combo of salt baked squid, shrimp, and scallops. The batter was light and crunchy, and has a bit of a sweet aftertaste. \n\nSauteed Snow Pea Leaves w/ Garlic - The snow pea leaves were incredibly tender and sauteed well. \n\nPig Stomach stir fried hot pepper style - When we eat out at any Chinese restaurant, the one thing we immediately look for in taste is what is known as \"Wok Hei.\" It's that distinct aroma and taste that you only get from a well-heated wok with the combination of ingredients/sauces. My father was once a restaurateur and really enjoyed this dish, because he says this dish is notoriously difficult to make at home. \n\nShort ribs with black pepper sauce - This was served on a regular plate, not on the sizzling hot skillets that I'm used to seeing at other restaurants. The meat a bit tough to chew, and the sauce was on the saltier side. \n\nEven though the short ribs and the pan fried noodles were a miss, the service was attentive (especially for Chinatown), and the other dishes were flavorful. Definitely come here for the duck!" ]

Will be eating there a couple times a week.", "Tried this new Indian restaurant last night, and found the food to be delicious! I am giving it five stars based on the food alone; the ambiance could be improved if they would simply dim the lights a fair bit (felt like I was eating in a hospital wing with bright fluorescent lights). With that simple fix, I'd certainly enjoy going back, as it really was great food, and the byob element is always great. Otherwise, I think it may just be a takeout destination.", "Incredible flavors. Nice portions. Can't beat a BYOB. The garlic naan and the mango chutney were amazing. We will definitely be returning.", "We accidentally ended up here for lunch after seeing the advertised lunch specials on our way to get pizza. So glad we ended up here instead. We ordered the paneer makhani and chicken korma lunch specials with veggie samosas to start. Everything was so flavorful. The lunch specials are a real deal - for $20 we were full and happy.\nKind service, flavorful traditional Indian flavors, and a killer lunch deal. Definitely worth checking out!", "Below average food compared to other Indian restaurants in the area, made worse by the fact that it arrived lukewarm. Will not be ordering from this one again.", "Ok. I admit it. I'm biased. I had a taste of the food here during their soft opening. I was impressed then and am still impressed. The food is consistently good, fresh, tasty and flavorful. I not only enjoyed my impromptu lunch but the outstanding customer service I was provided. I didn't have to ask for anything but what was on the menu; my table was set, high end bottled still water waiting... and the sites and sounds of a high end yet cozy \"Indian\" restaurant. \n\nI had the Chicken Vindaloo and it did not disappoint. It's easy to make it too vinegary or not spicy enough or simply \"wrong.\" THEY did it right, and I'm very satisfied. Highly recommend not only the dish, but the lovely rice pudding at the end. A great end to a wonderful meal.\n\nIf you're in this area (Old City), skip the \"other place.\" Just come here and get fed well. I wasn't drinking but I heard they are BYOB which is cool, and they're an old cigar shop across the street if you want to \"digest\" a while before going home.\n\nThanks, Makhani!!!", "My fiancé and I came here Saturday night. We order the tandoori chicken wings for an app which were very good. The entrees were disappointing. I ordered the mango chicken and my fiancé the tikki masala. The chicken was dry and over cooked. The sauces were pretty flavorless and the rice bland. The service was pretty slow for the amount of people on the restaurant. Probably wouldn't come back", "Makhani is a wonderful addition to the Old City restaurant scene. It occupies a space that has turned over with different restaurants several times in the last year alone. I hope Makhani enjoys wonderful success and occupies its space for years to come.\n\nThe food is all fresh and made on site. Service was generally attentive and certainly welcoming. I had Muglai, lamb in a thick nut based sauce. It was accompanied by rice, presented with a bit of creativity, and we ordered Nam the bread made on site, which arrived at the table warm. \n\nThe owner welcomed us as we completed our meal. The space is small enough that he may be able to greet all guests over the course of an evening.\n\nI am a Luddite when it comes to Indian cuisine, but the menu looked pretty extensive to me. Several dishes allow the guest to choose between lamb and chicken as the meat for a dish.\n\nMy wife and I really enjoyed Makani and we will return. The reason for rating the restaurant a 4 rather than a 5, is that many Indian dishes are hot--we were asked whether we wanted our dish mild, medium or very hot. We were served water, although our glasses were not refilled as much as I would have liked. It would be wonderful, I think, if a bottle of water sat on every table. This is a BYOB restaurant--we recommend beer over wine to accompany the meal. The restaurant might also consider putting bottled water, carbonated preferably, on the menu. Having a beverage always ready to address the wonderful \"heat\" of the dish would be a low cost, wonderful addition\nIt is a pleasure to recommend Makhni.", "This place is really good. A block from the office will make this a regular go-to spot for us. Had the Lunch special (under $10) and it was solid. Good addition to the neighborhood. Takeout was presented well and utensils were included! Friendly guy at the counter.\n\nThere's a few tables in there and the atmosphere seems nice. Recommend!", "Decided to try Makhani today and am so happy I did! They've put some serious love into the decor and design of the interior, the service was warm and helpful, and the food was outstanding! Not to mention, the prices for their lunch deals were very fair, especially considering that this is a nice dine-in experience! Not knowing what to expect, when it came time to order, I just asked, \"what are you guys most proud of?\" He suggested the mango chicken and I'm thankful that he did. The dish sounded sweet, but in reality it was surprisingly balanced with a fair amount of spicy-heat (I went \"medium\", if hot food is not your thing, go \"mild\") and I would list this as one of my all time favorite Indian meals in a restaurant. My colleagues both loved their meals too. One got the Makhani/butter chicken and I think my other friend got a paneer. I also took the servers' advice on the mango cheesecake. Another killer dish, but after all of that I was completely full. Fairly large portions." ]

A U shaped bar with 3 tap stations will come in handy with all the seating they have inside and on the patio. You may see some of your favorite dishes from other locations but I'd check the seasonal list for something unique like the Shrimp & grits that was quite tasty. Did I mention the patio is pet friendly", "Really good food. Liked the French fries. Nachos were a little dry. Nice gluten free and vegetarian options. Really liked the gluten free bun. Nice draft list variety and good easy drinking beers. Would strongly suggest they hang sound baffles. We felt like we were yelling at each other.

If you are a fan of sours you. will. love. this. place. We sampled more sours than I can count and I really enjoyed them all. My husband who isn't as big of a spurs fan even said that he really liked them as well! The space is huge and so beautiful. It definitely has the modern, funky fountain square feel. But honestly I'm a sucker for a great patio and this one seals the deal. I loved that they built up wooden pallet type walls to separate you from traffic and kept true to the buildings roots with the mural on the outside wall. Looks like there will also be access to the bar from the outdoors as well! We got to sample some of the menu which honestly wasn't mind blowing brewery food but I think there will be much more diverse offerings after the official opening!", "Fantastic beer and wide variety. When I visited there were at least 8 sours available. The staff was friendly and helpful. Very clean and upbeat vibe.

We put our name in for a table, but were lucky and got a few seats at the bar. We got a couple beers; the dragonfly and the coastbuster, both were great! We also ordered food and got the hot chicken sandwich and the tenderloin with the brewfries. Both sandwiches were fried to perfection! Other than the the fact that it was crazy since it was the grand opening, everything was great! We'll definitely be back!", "What did I like about Upland's newest brewpub? Let me see:\n\n1. Despite it being opening day, everyone who was working was making sure customers were being looked after. I was greeted with a smile, and when I sat at the bar, I had a team of folks swing by to see if I needed anything. Special shout out to Steve who was my main server.\n\n2. The space is huge and even though the parking lot was nearly full at 4:30, I never felt crowded.\n\n3. The Cuban sandwich was delicious! It's not an authentic version, but it is one of the best I've had. They use Smoking Goose City Ham (great on its own) and a spiced & smoked pulled pork along with melted swiss cheese and house pickle chips. Delicious with a bit of heat, just enough to let you know it's there.\n\n4. The Exploration flight which allows you to pick two of the their standard beers and two of the sours/barrel-aged beers to make your flight. Sure it is more expensive than other places, but if you know about brewing, you know you have to keep your sours away from your regular beers which means having a separate facility for the brewing. That costs money. But if you want to try a sour or a barrel-aged sour, you won't find more choices than at Upland.\n\n5. The patio. This is going to be a deal changer for the area. Understand that despite the efforts of a few brave businesses like Kuma and Revolucion, nobody was drawing the crowds that Upland was doing to the east of the fountain. With the new apartments going in across Prospect, Upland is moving the restaurant/nightlife area across that Shelby Street boundary. The patio had lots of tables and with the open garage doors to the brewery, felt very much a part of the business, not just stuck out there. \n\nFive reasons = five stars. Check this place out!\n\nReview #2846", "I've been watching and waiting for Upland to open! I had the pleasure of visiting on a Friday night of opening week. In addition to 19 draft beers they also offer Kombucha, wine, and a full food menu. I was expecting the service to be rough (as every new place usually is) but I was pleasantly surprised. Our server was kind and despite being extremely busy, checked in on us often. I ordered the paw-paw, oak and rose, and two of tarts (all sours). The beer was crisp and I love their wide selection of sours. \nTheir patio is scattered with picnic tables, plenty of standing room, AND it's dog friendly. So excited for this new addition.", "Upland brewery was such a cute and fun brewery! Went on a Saturday night and the place was packed! It took awhile to receive a drink, but other than that it was a good experience! The beer was very good, I ordered one of my favorites and my sister ordered a flight and honestly liked all the beers she tried!

The rose menu is pretty expansive so that's huge focus there. I opted for the frose which was peach flavored. For eats we got a sourdough bread board which had salami, blue cheese and pesto, surprisingly a good combo. For my entree o got the chicken salad blt sandwich, which was good but not anything to rave about. Eating it was a lot messier than I expected and could be due to it being served on a small board. I wasn't crazy about upgraded fries, I should've stuck with the chips it came with. \n\nOverall the experience was good, the check took a long time to make it to is but they've just opened so I can't hold that against them too much at this time. I recommend making a reservation for when you're ready to check this place out!", "We had dinner at the Hampton social and it did NOT disappoint! We were extremely impressed with the aesthetic and decor- very chic! The menu was diverse and had something for everyone. My friend and I split the South Hampton pizza, lobster Mac and Cheese, and the chicken wings. The wings stole the show- spicy, flavorful, crunchy, and served with a creamy cilantro sauce. It was so good! We both enjoyed the cosmopolitan- delish. Our waiter Chase was delightful and helpful when trying to decide what to order. I can't wait to go back and try the steak frites!", "Such a beautiful space situated right along the river. We got a sneak peak of the rooftop, which is going to be amazing once it's opened. The staff was great, and the drinks were tasty. We didn't have time to eat, but everyone's plates looked yummy. Looking forward to coming back on our next trip to Nashville!", "Food here was delicious. My boyfriend and I came in to mark the end of our weekend trip and were thrilled with the service and food. We had the baked Brie with apples and grapes as a starter and it was delicious. We also ordered the fish and chips and shrimp tacos which were great as well, the portions were just right not too little and not too much. They have a good cocktail list but I ordered mine off the mocktail list and added vodka and was not disappointed. We will definitely be coming back next time we're in town. Also if you're looking for a cute Instagram worthy spot the whole place is made to look like perfection on Instagram we didn't get to take any pictures but we saw quite a few people taking them!", "'Twas a great experience! The atmosphere was vibrant and relaxing. Felt like a vacation! Food was amazing. I had the crispy redfish and it was phenomenal. I don't like rose but their brand was dry and super easy to drink. I can not wait for their rooftop too open!", "We just found this new Gem in Nashville and had a wonderful dinner. The waiter I think his name was Aldo was a New Yorker and was fantastic. He was on top of his game. We had the calamari, brussel sprouts and deviled eggs for appetizers and all were delicious. For the main course my wife had the Mahi and I had the lobster roll and both were out of this world. Others at the table really enjoyed the Kale salad and the spicy thai shrimp salad. We cant wait to go back as the food is amazing and service was wonderful. I cant wait for the rooftop bar to open as it looked absolutely beautiful and bet it will be an amazing place to sit and have a drink while a concert is going on across the street at Ascend. Guy the manager was very nice and personally took us up for a tour of the rooftop bar. We cant wait to get back and try some new things and also try the brunch that sounded spectacular." ]

[ "Went here for dinner on Wednesday night (I think that's the first night they were open?) Great dining experience overall. I had the 18 oz boneless ribeye and it was delicious - definitely one of the best I've had in the city (and I've been to all of the top tier steakhouses.) My wife had the filet mignon which was also very good. Cocktails were excellent as well. We'll definitely be coming back.", "Wonderful meal. Ordered the dry ages porterhouse and it was . Service was great, very cozy, they ran out of the steak tartare so I'll be coming back in the next few days. The bone marrow toast with veal cheek is a deal breaker.", "Schulson restaurants always find a way to make the customer feel special over the years. There's a sports bar down this alley next to the Asian fusion spot! There's an underground dining room in this elevated coffee shopt! This New American restaurant has an underground bowling alley! That Italian lunch spot we did lunch at has a whole larger restaurant downstairs! That's been the run-down for the empire, so far and you can now add \"reservation STRONGLY suggested, entry only by doorman's discretion speakeasy/steakhouse hybrid\" to the list \n\nAlpen Rose just opened and I stopped by on a whim. Staff members had warned me to make a reservation ahead of time, but I just happened to be in the neighborhood and hungry. First, you gotta ring the doorbell, 'cause the front door (with no sign, so if you know, you know...) is locked. My guest and I got lucky that tables opened up early, so we were welcomed into the cozy dining room that maybe seats 40. The bar is tucked off to the side, but the whole restaurant has a view of the open kitchen and its flame pit. \n\nService was amazing top to bottom (the Schulson team called in their heavy hitters from the other restaurants for this opening stretch, so no \"learning curve\"; these are the best of the best running the show). The drinks program is organized in layers of menus for cocktails, beer, and wine. The food program is similarly layered with multiple pages of options. As first-timers, It took a while to read through all the options, but the staff was helpful with their own suggestions and knowledge of the best-sellers. We went with the Beef Wellington (listed \"for two\", some of the ounces on the chop and steak menu was daunting)--amazingly tender and flavorful, the creamed spinach--rich, with just the right crunch from breadcrumbs, and the octopus salad--sous-vied and then grilled to lock in flavor while still providing a satisfying crunch. Drinks were great with a nice selection of whiskey cocktails with balanced flavor and booziness. After dinner coffee from next door Double Knot and some sweet bites served as dessert and by this point, we were stuffed. Alpen is off to a great start. Half of the fun is just getting in the door and the rest is traversing through the deep menu. You do pay for the experience, though so keep your budget in mind when you go.", "Went there Friday March 29 as they recently opened on March 27 and from the outside there is no signage only a black canopy, the number 116 and a small rose. Small sits only 40 people and gives you that cozy feeling that yeah this is going to be good. We were seated promptly for our 5:15 reservation and from there it became a night my wife and myself will not forget. I started with the #76 cocktail that was sweet with a hint of lemon. We had the smoked bacon as an appetizer that was sweet, spicy and wonderful. My wife had the dry aged beef rib eye and I had the dry aged NY strip boneless with onion rings and mashed potatoes. Neither of us needed a knife to cut through the steaks and they just melted in your mouth. It was the best steaks we have had in a long time and we have been to many famous steaks places in Philly and other areas. Our server Laura was fantastic, cheerful and had a great beer recommendation for my steak. The general manager Toby stopped by to check in on us. For desert we had the strawberry rhubarb pie which was also fantastic. Toby finished off our meal with a small plate of almonds, chocolate bar and piece of fruit. You will not go wrong by eating there and next time we will try the beef wellington. Forgot to mention each place setting had a different type of plate design and different serving glasses for water that made the whole dining experience even more amazing. Truly an amazing dinning experience with my beautiful wife!", "I was not impressed by the food at this restaurant. I love all of the other restaurant he owns, but I felt for this price, the food was way below expectation. Shrimp was lacking flavor and steak was chewy and lacking that savory taste. It is hard to compare to places like Barclay Prime in this city. Otherwise, ambiance is great. Would go back for a cocktail.", "Small place with a great atmosphere, premium food, and killer cocktails. Going to be hard to get in.", "One the best and most unique dining experiences I've had. Speakeasy theme complete with a discreet entrance where you ring the doorbell and someone opens a small panel in the door to see if you have a reservation. Inside, the restaurant is small and beautifully decorated with maybe a dozen small tables and rounded booths for larger parties. There's a small bar that seats maybe 4 and a see through open section to the kitchen and flame pit. \nThe service is impeccable. Wait staff know what they're doing and know the menu completely. They are very good at recommendations, wine pairings, and will go out of their way for small accommodations here and there. I can't think of a single flaw in the service. \nThe food was outstanding. I had the bone marrow and toast with shredded veal cheek for a starter which was a first for me and one of the tastiest things I've eaten. Candied bacon was perfect. Beef Wellington for two was incredible. It will easily feed three. They carve and serve it table side for you. The filet was prime, tender, and perfectly cooked. Not an easy dish to make perfect but they nailed it. Baked Alaska for dessert is flamed table side and placed in front of you to blow out at your leisure. Texture, flavor and presentation were flawless. \nIt's pricey but well worth it. Highly recommended!!", "This is the most pretentious restaurant I've been to anywhere in the world. The food was good enough, but the entire concept is ridiculous. First you have to ring a doorbell. Then a panel in the door opens, and a host waits for you to speak. If you have a reservation they open the door and usher you in. If not, they close the panel while they determine if they can accommodate you. \n\nOnce inside, the decor signals the concept: a version of an old-fashioned men's club: all dark wood, tufted (pleather) banquettes, dim lighting. The servers are polite to the point of obsequiousness, and the descriptions of the menu items range from useful to totally unnecessary. Did I need to know the swordfish was harpoon caught? \n\nIn a true fine-dining restaurant, the music- if any - is soft, and no plates are removed from the table while anyone still is eating. Not so at Alpen Rose. The next time I'm in Philadelphia, I'd rather get a sandwich at Wawa than spend my money at Alpen Rose.", "We loved everything about our dining experience at Alpen Rose! Ringing the doorbell to have a small door open with the hostess greeting you was a fun introduction. When we walked in, it felt like we were at a speakeasy or a large dining area in someone's elegant home. I loved the decor all the way down to the lovely plates and glasses. Our waitress was welcoming and prompt. And then came the best part....\n\nI ordered the No. 76 and my husband ordered a Manhattan -- both were fantastic after a busy workday. I enjoyed being able to see the steaks being cooked over the fire and the bartender prepare drinks with surgical precision while we waited for our food to arrive. We ordered the smoked bacon which was perfectly cooked and flavorful, and the bone marrow toast which was heavenly. We split the Tomahawk which has so good my husband carved as much meat off the bone as he possibly could. For a second I thought he'd pick it up and gnaw on it! I loved the way the potato wedges were presented. They were crispy and complemented the steak nicely. They also had a very good but not overwhelming selection of wine -- mine was a cozy Cabernet Franc. \n\nWe finished off by sharing a coconut cream pie, oh my goodness it was so good. I can't think of one negative about this place, we had such a nice time. Well done Chef! Next time we're bringing some friends.", "Immaculate dining space like you can expect from any of Schulson's restaurants. Service was very attentive. We didn't get crazy with some of the more expensive stuff but everything we had was great. The filet mignon was incredible, (1 was overdone from what was asked) but they promptly brought out another. The NY Strip was just as good. The sides were all delicious, we had the grilled asparagus, a well thought out avocado salad, & mashed potatoes. They are small portions to make sure the meat is the star of the show. The only thing I found lackluster was the Swordfish, it was a big piece but very thin. Just a matter of preference but I like when swordfish is thick & juicy to make it emulate a steak. Pretty stellar drink program that's heavy on the whiskey cocktails to pair with your choice of seafood or meats. I had the No. 21 & the No. 15, riffs on an old fashioned & a Manhattan with deep complexity & dangerously smooth. Overall great experience, cozy space, & delectable food. A few more trips could move me to a 5 star review." ]

[ "Yesterday was my second visit to Los Arroyos, after having been a year ago. I was interested to see their Yelp page had disappeared when it seems like their other locations are still up and running. Knowing that their downtown location offers 20% of your meal for checking in, I asked the server if this offer was valid at the Goleta location and was told no. \n\nMy experience at Los Arroyos wasn't bad and there were quite a lot of positives. Firstly, our waitress was incredibly attentive and accommodating. Our order also came out surprisingly fast (maybe 5-8 minutes after ordering). The salsas and chips were fresh and tasty. \n\nI truly debated between three and four stars, but ultimately decided with three for the general lack-luster of my enchiladas. By charging $13-14 an entree I would hope that there would be something more to it, rather than putting grilled chicken in a tortilla and tossing some sauce on there. My friend ordered the Fajita burrito, which is her standard, and wasn't disappointed. I would not be opposed to coming back and trying something different and potentially changing my review then.", "Excellent! I'm a big fan of the Los Arroyos downtown . We just moved to Goleta and this new location is the Best!!!! The food is great. I love that there is full table service. We came in a big group with two insane toddlers who were singing jumping and being silly and he staff was so nice! It was amazing! Thank you everyone for making our dinner great! We love it!", "I found a new place where I can get great pozole! Great flavor and the hand made tortillas it comes with completes the food experience lol. Good customer service and like the leather menu covers, makes it feel authentic somehow.", "I was trying to rush away from Santa Barbara to avoid traffic for my 130 mile drive home the last Friday before everyone returns from winter holiday vacation. I needed to drop off boxes at FedEx and this place caught my eye as I drove to the strip mall across the street from it. These narrow strip malls mean tighter parking than your typical mall in Long Beach but I still found a space at lunch time in front. \n\nI didn't need to bother though. I walked in and the man serving customers near me never looked my way. Neither did the one at the bar nor the next waiter that serviced guests in the other aisle. I waited at the podium that said \"Please wait to be seated\" for about 5 minutes but no one ever said hello, let alone came to see what I wanted. Granted it was busy but I'll never know what the food is like because I'll never return.", "Delicious Mexican food, although a little pricey. This is a nice sit-down restaurant with friendly service. It's a bit slow, but they're pretty new so I'm sure they'll get better with time. My sister and I had the sopes, which were crispy and delicious, and the Arroyo burrito. The seafood in the burrito was a little overcooked, but the other fillings, the guac, and the side salad with passionfruit dressing was all delicious. They served us delicious complimentary chips and salsa (we got the mild and it was great) before our meals arrived. Overall, nice place for some higher-end sit-down Mexican food.", "Overpriced for what you get. These are Santa Barbara prices for just ok mexican food. If your cool with paying 20 bucks for a burrito then this is your place. The service nor the food warrants these prices. You can pay have at any other place", "Ordered the quesadilla with chicken, guacamole and sour cream. Not everyone masters the quesadilla because it takes the right amount of cheese and you don't want it to be all messy when you're eating but they did good. It came with a small salad side. I ordered on Uber eats so I'm not sure their service but the food is absolutely delicious. \n\nThe portion is okay since it's a restaurant you pay a lot for less, so that's a given. I got a decent sized plate for about $21 using a $5 discount but if you go in person, I am not sure how much it is! I gave 5 stars purely based on the flavor and presentation of my order, and I'm not sure if it would be the same had I gone in person but I gladly recommend it anyway!\n\nAlso I am not sure if the quesadilla automatically comes with guacamole and sour cream because I ordered it and got two sides and inside the box too? Either way they're so good!", "Great food and nice place.. The wait staff aren't always very friendly though...", "The two of us had lunch yesterday in Goleta.April 25/2019 around 11/ or 11:30.Didn't feel very welcome and our server look like he really didn't want to be there.I,m also a server and I try to make everyone feel welcome.My honey got some tacos,wanted the shrimp on the side.Shrimp was in tacos and everything else was on the side. Myself I had the steak,wanted it cooked med rare and got well.I had the server come over and showed him.He did offer to take it back.We didn't have time to start over.Second time my steak has came out that way.Paying that kind of money for food that really was prepared right.I played the bill and nice tip and we probably won't be back.", "Home of the best carnitas in Santa Barbara! I wish this Goleta location was here when I lived around the corner, especially with the full bar and outdoor patio. \n\nMy must have order is the carnitas mojado burrito with a side of their fresh homemade chips. Another great alternative is the pastor tacos (or the mole tacos when it's on special).\n\nTheir salsa bar is the best in town. If you can handle it, try the habanero salsa. If not, the que mada and avocado salsas are my favorites. \n\nAnother bonus about this location is the super friendly service. They forgot my chips with my phone order so they gave me a fresh batch for free, even when I offered to pay!" ]

[ "Located in the spot where Vietnam House once stood, Shi Miao Dao is a new Chinese, more specifically Yun Nan noodle chain, that has finally made its way to Philadelphia. We came here for its soft opening with friends and only three of their appetizers were available. We opted for the garlic fried chicken, which tasted pretty good and was nicely fried but I don't recall tasting any garlic flavor. It was also our first time trying Shi Miao Dao, but you pretty much order a soup noodle, which is brought to you piping hot along with a tray of different ingredients that you empty into the hot soup on your own, which adds to the fun of it (I guess). My friends and I had the noodles with tomato soup base, while my husband had the chicken noodle. The tomato base was very flavorful, and the beef parts in the soup were perfectly braised and soft. I would definitely recommend this over the chicken noodle.", "Very good and authentic YunNan rice noddle place（云南米线） place in Philly. I read on other review site said that their service is not as good, but I didn't experience any bad service myself. The waitress even offered to help my add my dishes and noodle to my soup. I ordered the original flavor soup base which I liked a lot, and my husband ordered the tomato flavor soup base.", "Been here 3 times. Every single time whatever I order they miss something. At 3rd time we didn't even get water. Everything seems to be slow. But they get the check to you extremely fast.", "I came to this place on the 2nd day of the soft opening. They were def not well prepared. The food was good. But I would give 1 star for the rest. I never post negative reviews for Asian food that's on this level (not shitty fusion but pretty authentic). The line was pretty long when I got there. But then I noticed there were like 3 open tables inside, the waitresses just didn't let ppl in for some reason. When I finally got in, i waited another 10 min to get a menu. Then another 10 min to order. 35 min later I got my noodle soup. Cmon it's noodle soup, why do I need to wait for half an hour? Then when I asked for vinegar, the waitress w/o checking with the kitchen told me she believed that they didn't have any. I was like okay. This is the first time that I know a Chinese restaurant doesn't have vinegar. And of course it's cash only. In a nutshell, the waitresses were just useless.", "This is my 3rd time having noodle soup at this place!! First time I had pickled pepper noodle soup, and second time I had sour fish soup based. This time I wanted to try something different, so I go with the pork chop one with plain, not spicy soup base. Even the soup was not spicy but it was still very flavorful, and I added some Szechuan chill pepper oil and boy, the oil brings the soup to another level!! It was amazing!! Super legit!! I would definitely come back to place for some more noodle soup! Currently it's my go to place in Chinatown!!", "They want cash only!\nDidn't like it and won't comeback again because of the wait and the food was not worth for the wait! \nMy order was a chicken noodle, it came with only a little ingredients. I personally don't like the chicken breast and the taste of the soup. Overall it was too salty.", "The famous east village restaurant recently expanded to philly! I went there around 1pm on a Monday and there is a short wait. The place isn't very big but a lot of customers came with families. Right after I ordered, they brought a tray of colorful tiny dishes and a bowl of rice noodles. A bit later, they brought a hot stone bowl of broth and put all the side dishes in. I had the tomato broth and it was flavorful. The meat which served raw was cooked instantly in the hot broth. \nThe place is cash only but you will only need to spend $15 to have a nutritious big meal.", "I was super excited to try this new noodle place! My friends went to their soft opening and I immediately messaged them asking where this gem was. \n\nIt's a new business located and the corner of 9th and race, a little bit before terakawa! But, this place is one of the places I've been looking for! I've been in search for a meaty, spicy broth.. and I think I've found the place that i will be going to on a cold winter day. \n\nI got the spicy sirloin, and it came with all these cute little assortments of condiments.. corn, pickled cabbage, tofu skin, black fungus mushroom, etc. the presentation was absolutely beautiful! \n\nThey bring the soup in a hot stone bowl, so your food doesn't get cold. They offer to add all the condiments in for you, but I opted to do it myself. The broth mixed with the meat and the noodles was fantastic. The broth needed a little more meaty-ness to it, but nonetheless, i was super pleased. \n\nIf you're in need of something to warm up your stomach and satisfy your noodle cravings- hit this place up! \n\nThey're a cash only place though, keep that in mind :)", "Seems more like a novelty restaurant to me. After you order, the servers bring out our broth, noodles and an assortment of toppings. Then they asked if you liked them to help assemble it which is literally just adding all the ingredients into the broth. Honestly, I don't think there would be too much of a difference between adding the toppings in front of me or in the kitchen before bringing it out. \n\nThe dish itself was good but nothing special. The broth was also good but the flavors could've been stronger and the noodles were alright. Worth checking out but probably won't be back for more.", "I came in here 3 times every time only couple piece of meat in there, and one time I order a beef tomotato noodle to go for my mom, my mom ask me where's the meat it's all broth, so not worth for the price and way worse then the flushing, not recommended" ]

My friend had the soup and a salad, both were good portions and flavorful. The staff was attentive and polite. My water was filled often which I always look for. We sat by the open doors and enjoyed the breeze while we ate. I'd like to go back and try the croque monsieur which I eyed up on another table.", "We have been excited for Felly to open since we saw the signs go up in our neighborhood. We tried dinner on Thursday and went back for brunch today. Both phenomenal meals! Felly is just what Queen Village needs.", "We were looking for a date night spot and decided to try out the new place in the neighborhood. We had a great experience at Felly. The restaurant was busy but we were able to get a seat without a reservation. The menu had a good variety of options. The food was really great and we enjoyed being able to BYO. The chorizo and shrimp starter was amazing. I got the salmon and my partner got the beyond burger with fries and a Caesar salad. We're looking forward to our next meal here. It's a great addition to the neighborhood.", "The empanadas are amazing and so was everything we had for dinner. Very friendly staff and met the chefs! The desserts were also fantastic. A must try place for dinner especially if you are local.", "A new Queen Village gem! The food and service were both excellent. Definitely worth trying.", "Perfect little BYOB in Queen Village. The service and food was top notch. I had the chicken risotto and loved it. The staff was friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend!", "Felly opened in our neighborhood - Queen Village - a month ago but we finally got there last night,\n\n Here is my \"subjective review\". I call it \"subjective\" because we all have different food tastes and preferences and economic situations. (We do not eat spicy foods and prefer BYOBs because we can choose from our own wine selection). With that said:\nWe made reservations for 7pm for last night (Saturday) - though , for now, you don't need reservations. When we arrived there was one table of four just finishing up, but otherwise we were it. During our 90-minute meal two other tables became full. Felipe (the chef owner) has done no advertising and so it's still an undiscovered gem IMHO). When we entered there was no air circulation but as soon as we requested to the \"hostess\" that it needed air, it was turned on and the temperature was perfect. Felipe had repainted the walls and it looked nice. The building owner put in sound damping panels on the ceiling to allow for conversation and this seems to have helped a lot. (It was always a hard noisy space, even with just a few tables. ) \nOur server (one of two last night) was Ted, (the other is Jack) who apparently worked with Felipe in a restaurant in Bordentown. He is personable and described the specials in detail. (I did have to request that he include the prices, as they were often higher than other items on the menu, but he did that. BTW, Ted also plays saxophone and - unknown to me (though we were away anyway), Felly (which BTW is named for Felipe and his wife Kelly) had two jazz nights (one was on Father's day) with Ted and another musician. \nOur wine was opened and water - tap water - was brought. The menu is really wide ranging. Yes, there is a steak (mid $20s) but also a burger ($15) so it fills a wide range of prices. We started by sharing one of the two salads ($7 each), the one with arugula, blue cheese, slivered almonds and some other things. It was delicious - though the blue cheese makes it a bit salty) and fairly priced. For our entrees we had two chicken dishes: The chicken (boneless) risotto ($16) and the chicken (with bones)($19.) over a white bean cassoulet. Both were beautifully played and substantial in size and well-seasoned. I would easily order either again. \nNo bread was served or ordered so I asked. A toasted baguette is always available \"on request\" and I found it worth getting to sop up the juice of my chicken cassoulet. I left nothing in that bowl. \nThe desserts are made in-house by Kelly - a pastry chef - and I asked her to pick one. She recommended the Cheesecake, which is shaped like a large cupcake and was really intense in flavor. The size is deceptive. This is a filling dessert - and fairly priced at $7. We passed on coffee.\nThe dinner was under $30pp (with BYOB), so you are not breaking the bank. And with a burger and salad or dessert you can eat reasonably here It's a tough time to open a restaurant in this district. Competing both Olly and Village just two blocks away - and the slightly pricier Fiore a few blocks further. But I think that - if the neighbors support it (and soon!) - it will succeed. I like the fact that there are NO TVS (and the music is at a quiet level), that it's BYOB, fully CHEF-owned and run, and Felipe and Kelly (who commute from Hamilton Township, outside Trenton, but want to settle in our neighborhood with their two young children) want to be good neighbors. \nSo, don't wait. Pick a night - or a weekend brunch - and try them. If you like it, go back again. If you have questions or feedback, just ask for Felipe. He's open to ideas. I know I'll be back and hopefully I'll see other neighbors here. \n\nOh here's the menu\nhttps://fellybistro.com/menu", "A new largely undiscovered gem. Each dish prepared exquisitely with wonderfully tasty sauces and great presentation. Large portions, well priced with a good range of pricing from burger to steak. Will be back!", "Felly is amazing. Very kind people and the food is outstanding. I totally recommend the Burger with the truffle fries. The first time I went my waiter was Jack. He is very descriptive of the menu choices and specials. He was very nice the entire dinner. Look forward to trying Brunch. Signed G From the neighborhood.", "Tonight I had another terrific meal at Felly. If memory serves me correctly tonight marked my third meal here since it opened. My partner and I live in QV and are thankful that this restaurant has opened in our neighborhood. The FOH staff is pleasant, welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. While I haven't met any of the kitchen staff yet, except for Kelly (the pastry chef) who is so sweet and always smiling, we've yet to have a meal that was less than superb. I'm a creature of habit so I've had the Sirloin steak as well as the NY strip special and the burger. All fantastic! I personally LOVE the Felly salad too - that blue cheese just makes it ridiculously tasty! Regardless of what you order from the fairly diverse menu I'm certain you'll enjoy your meal and the overall experience. Felly is BYOB so come prepared with wine in tow! They also serve Sat/Sun brunch. Just make sure you go as it's a great place and I for one hope it's successful and remains open for many years. I'll be back next week!" ]

The restaurant isn't open yet but I can imagine how busy it will get. \n\nI came during their opening weekend and their bakery/lunch items were available. Everything in the bakery looked amazing - items included spanakopita, baklava, Bougatsa! They had a full range coffee bar with cappuccino, fredo (iced espresso with foam milk), Turkish coffee (yes mixed in the sand)!\n\nTheir lunch menu has pita bread, souvlaki skewers, mezze, salads are a few to name.

Our favorite was definitely the souvlaki platter with fried pita and a HUGE chunk of Greek cheese!! The skewer was cooked to perfect with good spices and the fried pita was amazing!\n\nThe only down side would be the prices - the mezze was $5 per pita dip so babaganoush and tabouleh was $10 and didn't come with pita bread.

Visited the bakery July 3rd around 11am and ordered from the menu- 2 Baklava's, a Bougatsa and a fredo. After paying for the order, about 5 minutes goes by for the cashier/server to tell me they are out of Baklava, if I would like something else-there were no other real options but an apricot cookie or almond paste cookies-so I said ok one of each. The price difference between the cookies and Baklava is $1.25- I wasn't offered a refund or an extra item to make up for the amount I'd just spent. Sorry-but $5 sub-par cookies after spotty service was extremely disappointing. The Fredo was great, though!", "happy to have a delicious and affordable mediterranean place in st pete!\n\nthe goods:\nSOUVLAKI: order the chicken thighs (it is delicious), comes with fried piece of dough (who doesnt love that) + cheese. only $6\nCHICKEN PITA: it was a bit smaller than i expected it to be, for a pita sandwich, but it was delicious. \n\ncons:\n-a bit confusing with the ordering. order at the bakery (the front smaller shop) and then go sit anywhere you want with your table number. \n-the menu was kind of confusing, especially under the souvlaki part. basically the first paragraph tells you what you get, and the second paragraph tells you the options you can order with (meat choices: chicken, pork, etc, or eggplant). \n\naffordable, fast, and delicious service! will be looking forward to coming back to try more things on their menu. didnt get the baklava but will definitely be coming back for it!", "Great food, but they're still working out logistics. We ordered the Baba ganoush, Chicken Pita, and Lamb Pita. The ganoush was a on the tangy side with lemon juice and does not come with Pita bread, so you'll have to ask for it. Chicken Pitas yogurt sauce was high quality with grilled chicken. Lamb Pita had a different marinade with a salad inside the pita- lamb was perfectly cooked \n\nIt did take about 30 min to get our food. They need to have waitresses in the future since they default their tip to 20%. \n\nWill be back when they've had about 3 months under their belt.", "I picked up an iced latte early one morning. Coffee was great. There wasn't a coffee menu to look at, but the barista said she could make what i wanted.\nThe staff was very friendly and welcoming. \n\nI went back for dinner. The staff remembered me and were friendly. I arrived around 7:45pm (on a Friday) and got the last seat at the bar with no wait, although the place continued to fill up quickly. I ordered the 'Baba' cocktail. Waited a bit and ordered food, which came out at an average pace. No complaints on timing. \n\nI chose the Orzo, which I enjoyed. The menu says \"large plates\" and the dish was entree sized. \n\nThe food others had to my left and right looked good, too. I will visit again!", "Such a wonderful place! Our dinner was delicious, the staff was friendly and the decor transported me to an Island somewhere in Greece. So delighted by the Lebanese rosé, can't wait to have it again. The bakery is beyond charming, and the cookies are to die for.", "Loving this new gem in st.pete! Decor and ambience are the best and coolest I've seen in the area, fits in perfectly along central! Lunch at the bakery is a must, affordable and delicious pitas, baba ganoush is a fav, along with the tatziki and hummus. Chicken was so good I was craving to come back! Hit the dinner menu their second night open, slightly pricier than expected but still a great experience. Pics attached. Baklava dessert is a must as well!", "This new place is fantastic. We've been looking forward to it opening; it's better than we could have hoped. By far the best Mediterranean restaurant in the area. It's as good as Zaytinya in DC, and just as cool. Ask to be seated in Rhiannon's section, she has such great energy." ]

[ "Really enjoyed our evening tonight. Only second night open and this place already feels established. A group of around 15 enjoyed drinks at the bar before dining. The bar staff were fantastic, friendly and down to earth. The wait staff were attentive and the food was exceptional. The \"white barbecue\" wings are really unique-delicious! Great with the local IPA. The burger was also exceptional and others raved about the oysters (both raw and baked). No question they are still finding their feet, but this place has legs. Go check them out....", "WOW! Was I amazed today! I dropped in to see what this place was like, not realizing that this restaurant had just gone through an ownership/management change. I was greeted with such delight! I sat outside with a view of the bay channel across the street. The host was darling and the server was a shining star. I met the new owner. Very smart gentleman! Then the food. OMG! Are you kidding? I have NEVER had grouper prepared like this ANYWHERE on or near St. Pete Beach that compares with my experience today! Council Oaks at the Hard Rock does not have a fish dish that even holds a candle to what I was served today. I shall go back to this wonderful restaurant and will make sure that everyone I know in central Florida, makes it a stop when they go to St. Pete or near there. Thank you.", "Originally wanted to go to Willys Burgers next door, was a bit of a wait, ended up next door here. Glad we did. Really good burger, nothing too crazy, but just perfect enough. Simple. Juicy. Could tell it wasn't a frozen hockey puck burger but fresh beef. Got a spot on the patio with a nice view. Good spicy margarita too. Worth the stop in.", "This place is absolutely phenomenal. Recently renovated with new ownership and it shows in all the right places. The restaurant is clean and beautifully redone. Food is delicious and beers are cold with a great selection. I was told every Tuesday is all you can eat crab legs- I mean come on!! Also a great view near the water. Do yourself a favor and come in anytime you're near!", "This restaurant just reopened and is completely different than it was before. We had the Grouper dinner and the fish and chips and they were both excellent! Clean dining area and friendly staff. Our new favorite beach restaurant.", "This place reopened about a month ago under new ownership and changed the name to Oyster Shucker Craft & Draft. This is one of my favorite new spots. I usually get the burger, fish and chips, or the broiled chorizo/apple oysters. Everything is always fresh. I brought my mom who has dietary restrictions and can't eat a lot of processed foods. She loved the grilled grouper and said the crab cakes were the best she'd ever had. The staff is great too, FUN and very knowledgable. Oh, did I mention the view.....Definitely one of the best restaurants on the beach.", "Place has been open only a month and they really have their act together. Very attentive staff. Great beer selection and the shrimp po boy was outstanding. Off the beaten path location too. It is a comebacker.", "All You Can Eat...if you only want one plate\n\nI've been a frequent diner at Oyster Shucker prior to the new management, because of their 'All You Can Eat' special which was offered daily. When they no longer offered that special, I was forced to look elsewhere so imagine my excitement when on a whim I called to find out they offered the 'All You Can Eat Crab' on Tuesdays!! Stepping back into Oyster Shucker (now added Craft & Draft) the new design and decor looked amazing - they have upgraded to a more refined look and provided more table top spaces. The new Staff is welcoming, knowledgeable about their menu and extremely accommodating. The menu choices has been revamped and will make the inner foodie in anyone do a little happy dance. However, the 'All You Can Eat Crab' night needs a lot of improvements or simply does not need to be offered. All the positive things I listed about the remodel, Staff and menu was immediately overshadowed due to the confusion, lack of quality and inability to satisfy customers who want eat crabs until their belly burst.\n\nThe first round of crabs my group of four received were cold. However, by the time we received food at the table I was so hungry a tear almost fell from my eye because I had waited almost 25 mins. for my food to only be sent back because it wasn't hot. The Manger on Duty addressed our table and attempted to apologize and I am thankful for that, but apologies do not fill empty stomachs. I was starving and spent the whole day dreaming about my reunion with Oyster Shucker's All -You Can Eat Crabs. After my friends and I ate our first round of crabs, there was no refill! From my past experience, there was a Staff member that was dedicated to passing out crab legs to those who had ordered AYCE. We sat and waited for our waiter to ask if we were ready for more, but by this time it was too late - I was frustrated. I shouldn't have to find a Staff member to request more food. After the first round of crab were delivered to the table, the waiter should have taken an order for the second round. I understand it is a busy night and there are several demanding customers, then you need to adjust and plan for a crowd. \n\nI hope to return to Oyster Shucker on another Tuesday after they have mastered their AYCE.", "It's wonderful to have a place on St. Pete Beach that serves a nice craft cocktail. I had the Hemingway; my husband had the margarita. Tasty!! The burger was awesome as was the calamari. We'll definitely go back - soon!", "We checked out a couple other restaurants in the area and this one was far better.\nThe food was outstanding and the service was great as well. We will be returning for sure to oyster Schuckers." ]

[ "Phenomenal. I got the pork steak and it just fell apart and the seasoning rub was just amazing. My friend got the brisket and pulled pork and it was melt in your mouth good. Same goes for the sides. Can't recommend this place more. The decor is modern and inviting and they also have a butcher shop attached. Must try!", "Yippie! I no longer have to drive over to Belleville to enjoy the best Pork Steak in the metro area. Now that the Beast has opened in The Grove, their Pork Steak can be billed the best in the state of MO. \n\nTheir Pork Steak is so delicious from the seasonings of the dry rub, there is no need to use any sauce. It is also so tender, there's no need to use the steak knife that is provided. I was able to pull and tear it apart into small bite size pieces without using the knife. \n\nThe sides are sold separately. To accompany my huge pork steak, I choose; Bacon-Mac and Brussels Sprouts with Belly. How could I go wrong with either of these. The Mac was rich and creamy with cheese and then adding bacon made it even yummier. The Brussels Sprouts were crisp and served with pieces of pork belly. What a great way to get your green vegetable in for the day. \n\nThe restaurant is order at a counter and find a seat with a table marker. Runners will then bring you your order on sheet trays. Ambiance is retro contemporary minimalist (if that can be a thing). The staff is friendly and attentive, very similar to that of the original location in Belleville. \n\nI'll be back? -Yes, I love that Pork Steak\n\nWhen: June 15, 2019\nWhy: Grand Opening", "Quite possibly the best bbq in St Louis, and an excellent location as well. Ribs were incredible. \n\nThe chopped brisket cheese steak sandwich was also spectacular. Super excited about this place, and David hasn't even opened the Skullery private dining room yet.", "The is the best addition to The Grove in years!!\nToday was opening day and things appeared to be going without a hitch. I tried the pulled pork sandwich and was not disappointed. They also had an amazing peach bread pudding, which they had run out of at around 1pm. But I waited about 10 minutes for a hot out of the oven batch and was, again, not disappointed!!\nTreat yourself and go to a great new venue.", "Awesome place. With great potential. Came in for the opening and as they settle in they will get their service in and process so be patient. The food overall was awesome. We walked in and greeted with the cheddar hot link taste so I would consider it in the future. In terms of the food, I had the ribs, brisket, and pulled pork. ORDER THE PORK STEAK. Thats what they are known for and it will not dissapoint. The brussels were outstanding, the mac was great, and honestly didnt even get to the beans. Come get it.", "Grand opening day will have it's hiccups, but the food shines through. We went there after the Blues parade. 3 rooms to the place. Main dining area, a Chef's table area that you rent the whole room and do a pairing meals or for an instructional meal and a butcher shop. While waiting to order they were sampling the Garlic cheddar hot link, great for an appetizer.\n\nI had 4oz pulled pork and 4oz turkey breast with the sprouts and belly. Meat was smoked to perfection (moist & flavorful)and the brussel sprouts were like they were deep fried and gave a nice crunch. The wife and boy had the Cheese steak Sammie. It was delicious and probably my favorite item on the menu. As far as the sauces I went with a 50/50 mix of the Standard & Texas Chainsaw. \n\nA decent selection of Craft brews. All in cans. They do have a draught box but I don't think it was set up yet. They have the local soda Excel doing 8 or so flavors.", "St. Louis has a new BBQ champion. The pork was amazing in every preparation (belly, pulled, bacon...), the brisket was excellent, the turkey was moist and flavorful and those sides.... usually BBQ do a few things really well and everything else is just okay. Not BEAST. Literally everything we ordered was amazing. And I haven't even mentioned the ribs yet. Oh. My. God. Just do yourself a favor and go now with a group so you can get away with ordering everything on their menu. You won't be disappointed.", "I thought the food was excellent . However, I saw one of the worst management / customer interactions while I was eating on Father's Day . A family was ordering food and the dad sat down at a table, a waitress came over and said you can't sit down until you get your food. The guy was trying to explain that his family was actually already at the register ordering, she leaves and get \"the manager\". He proceeds to tell this customer how \"rude\" he is and needs to get up from the table. He gets up from the table, as he's getting ready to walk away the family shows up that their number and drinks and sits at he exact table. I can see if the guy sat down for a hour while his family is ordering. (That's how long the line was) but this guy sat for probably 5 minutes. \n\nI really did enjoy the food but I'm not sure if I'll be back anytime soon. There's too many good bbq options in St Louis to get an attitude from management.", "Mmmmm mmmm mmmm...! \n\nI had heard \"through the grapevine\" that \"The Butcher...\" had just opened. I had parked in their parking lot to hit the Grove last weekend and saw the name. I was hungry and felt adventurous, so what the hell?! Why not? \n\nI glided in and walked straight to the far counter and the To-Go attendant chased me down. (FYI, the To-Go counter is closest to the doors and what will be the butcher shop). Luckily, she was really friendly--like, really friendly--I could tell she appreciated that I had visited and wanted my patronage.\nI was initially drawn to the Bacon Ranch Chicken Salad sandwich because I had a taste for a chicken sandwich. And just so happen, the owner/chef randomly walked up and explained what it really was with down-to-earth friendliness and humor. Even though the sandwich didn't fit my tastebuds, I wanted to see what they had to offer. I had hoped to find more turkey options on the menu though... The attendant was extremely helpful in helping my indecisive a figure out what I wanted--the Sauced Pork. \nY'all, okay... I hit the fries first. They were cool until I dipped'em in that sauce and fell in love! The sauce has a little heat and tang to it. Full of flavor. I ate all the crumbs too... \nNow, I tasted the pork by itself--nice, sweet, flavorful taste. Mmmm... I'm not a huge fan of slaw; this one tasted pretty good though, and it gave the sandwich a different kind of something. Then the sauces, the Original (?) and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, both made me salivate and say \"Oooh!\"; Texas won though. I poured a little Texas on the sandwich and........... Another piece of Heaven was met! Y'all, get into the sandwich bread! I think that's the secret--well, I am kind of a bread-fanatic ‍!!! I DEVOURED that sandwich, sweaty and all! One of the best pulled pork sandwiches I've ever had. (Really, y'all, taste the bread )\nGet plenty of moist towelettes!", "I came to Beast with high expectations after reading rave reviews on their original location. I got there 30 minutes after opening and asked for the hot link which they said they didn't have. That was slightly disappointing since I came early but I got the 4oz turkey instead. I wanted to try some sides but at the steep price of $4-5 per individual side I opted for just the Mac and cheese. You pick up everything for your meal by the soda machine. Even the BBQ sauce which I noticed they don't leave on the tables. I had to go back up and get those. They offer a sweet, spicy, and vinegar based BBQ sauce. I tried the first two. The turkey had great flavor and I liked the BBQ sauces. The Mac and cheese was good but I still think $5 is steep for the portion size. Overall I think it's good BBQ and I would like to come back with friends that's definitely the way to do it so you can try a variety without spending a lot of money." ]

The new owner is turning this place into a new Apollo Beach gem! The fact that it's so close to my neighborhood doesn't hurt either. The new lunch items they just added may just have to bring me in even more often. I need to try their Rueben next! Keep it up Apollo Beach Diner!", "We just ate here today for the first time and we absolutely loved it! We ordered their steak skillet along with a chorizo breakfast burrito to share between the two of us - both were delish! And huge! We left FULL and have already raved to our local friends about it! They were friendly and fast - we definitely enjoyed our breakfast and we will be back very soon!", "This place is excellent. Being from NYC I miss going to a diner and this place brought me back home with a flavor of the South Shore. We showed up 10 minutes before closing and Victoria, our server, was courteous and constantly checked in with us. There was no rush whatsoever! They have a great menu and lots of diner favorites to choose from without being overwhelming. Their homemade onion rings are a must...crispy and delicious. Their homemade chips were just as delicious..crispy until the last bite. The food was not salty and very flavorful. Hubby's cheeseburger was cooked to perfection! I had a BLT with crispy, not burnt, bacon. Delicious! We will be back. There's so much more to try! Give this place a Chance. Bet you'll agree with me!", "Best Diner in the area. Fresh food and family atmosphere. Each meal was amazing, sausages taste freshly made prices are very affordable. Only thing was they have no deserts but no big deal.", "A dear friend recommended I try the Apollo Beach Diner. He is pretty picky about his restaurant recommendations. He said their breakfasts were great and their hamburgers were spectacular.\n\nMy wife and I had breakfast there this morning. My friend was right. The diner is excellent. Nice ambiance. Excellent, prompt, friendly service. Food was excellent. Nice presentation. Reasonable prices. \n\nWe are certain to go back often.\n\nMy one recommendation is that they add some \"heart healthy\" items to their menu. Fresh fruit and low-fat yogurt would appeal to the health-conscious​ crowd.", "Wonderful breakfast at our new favorite spot. Great customer service, friendly staff and cute ambience.", "This diner is a quaint little hole in the wall place where the food is great and the service is super friendly! It has a very homey feel to it. Definitely come here if you're looking for a delicious low-key breakfast experience!", "Been here a few times, it is very close to my house and one of the few breakfast spots around town. The coffee here is great! The food is good, I have had the omelet, the corn beef hash, and the steak and eggs. The steak for the steak and eggs is more of a ground burger patty, it was still good but not what I was expecting. The corn beef hash looks like it came right out of a can and was really oily. I would love to see them make real homemade corn beef hash. I would also love to see them have some healthier choices on their menu as well (fruit, yogurt and granola, etc). The recently remodeled it so it's got a very cute, clean look and a good diner atmosphere. They do a good job seating people so there is hardly much of a wait, I have never waited to sit myself, typically going around 9/930am on a weekend. The service is on point for drinks when you first arrive, food orders, the drink refills could be faster but overall great staff. I will continue to come back to this local breakfast spot and recommend to others", "This is my GO TO breakfast place several mornings per work since moving down from Atlanta.

[ "Such a different flavor to bring to the downtown Boise area. Food was AMAZING, the service was great, and the atmosphere is great for a fun night out with friends, or date night. Recommend the fried green tomatoes, fried buttermilk chicken and any dessert they have on their menu (it's all good)!", "I ate here for brunch on Sunday for the soft opening...YUM! The biscuits are amazing, and the sweet tea chicken was so good! My favorite part was the peanut butter mousse they had!!!", "Boise is no stranger to great food and good service, but this place is a welcome addition and will definitely be one of my go-tos. Stopped in for a soft opening and was actually really surprised. It seemed like the staff was on point, everyone was friendly and knew way more than I'd expect for a newly opened and staffed restaurant. \nThe bartenders were awesome, and the food was really good. Service was ideal.\n\nBetween my friend and I, we tried a bunch of random dishes and everything was great. I had just been talking about how much I missed the fried chicken down south when I took a trip to Savannah so when a southern food spot opened up here, I was stoked. I'll say this much. The fried chicken at Tupelo was as good as any I had in Georgia. Maybe even better. \n\nThe Bloody Mary I had with bacon in it was great as well. Beat Bloody Mary I've had in a long time.\n\nWill definitely be back many times.", "Loved it! We took our family opening night and enjoyed everything! The atmosphere, service, and food were all on point. Such a perfect addition to the downtown Boise dining scene! Can't wait for patio brunches in warmer seasons! Loved the pecan pie and fried green tomatoes.", "What a fabulous experience. Truly! From beginning to end, I didn't want to leave! We came here on a Tuesday (I think it was their grand opening? I'm not sure. Hubby never really has the correct info tee hee) but it was quite busy! The atmosphere was super beautiful and quite unique! I loved their macrame chandeliers! What an interesting idea! The entire staff was just so lovely. We had different managers and waiters asking how we were, and if they could get our table anything. The staff genuinely cares about you and your opinions. They want you to have the best experience possible. I honestly felt well taken care of. Here in Idaho, the only thing \"southern\" here is crap Bbq restaurants which is just a bunch of dried meat smothered in bbq sauce. I was a little skeptical of Tupelo honey because I thought it was just going to be the same thing! I am so happy I gave it a try! If this is what true southern food is, then I am all about it! We started off with their tacos and egg roll appetizers. Oh my word! I could have had a few of those for my dinner and totally been satisfied! Sooooo delicious! They have a great selection of alcohol. I had the Telaya from Washington and The Federalist from California. My husband had a whiskey which he very much enjoyed. I ordered the salmon. Oh! Such flavor! Really, the best salmon I have ever had! I don't know why people feel that only garlic butter and lemon can go on a fish but Tupelo really steps out of the stereotype and cooked a wonderful entree. The quinoa was the best too. My husband has the shrimp and grits, and he was very impressed as well. We brought our two babies. This is definitely a kid friendly place. Tasty macaroni and cheese and French fries to keep the kiddos occupied while the grownups want to enjoy their dishes. We finished off with a banana pudding. Also the best I have ever had as well. Such a delicious crust and not overbearingly sugary (I don't know why people overdo it with the sugar, but once again, Tupelo perfects it!) From start to finish, our experience was so wonderful. One of the owners that we were talking to gave us a lovely history of Tupelo honey. He invited us back to try their biscuits and gravy. I am so taking him up on that! I definitely want to be a regular here. Absolutely wonderful. I recommend this place to everyone, whether it's a family outing, anniversary, birthday, any of it, this place is the best for all occasions. Outstanding job to Tupelo Honey. Also a shoutout to our waitress, I totally forgot her name, but she was absolutely terrific. 11/12/19", "Very impressed. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic. Tried the fried green tomato, Brussels sprouts, crispy cauliflower, and their house shrimp and grits. Everything was tasty and awesome--great attention to detail. The drinks were fantastic too--great bartender. Happy hour has great deals and is great for sharing.", "We made reservations for opening night on Tuesday and were happy to experience Tupelo Honey's brand of Southern hospitality. I was surprised to see the North Carolina-based chain with 17 other outlets (none farther west than Denver) come to Boise before Portland, Seattle or countless California culinary destinations. Oh well, their loss.\n\nWe started with a pair of cathead biscuits. They were good, but I was surprised how dense they were. Southern biscuits are superior to those found elsewhere because of the soft flour that is available there. It has far less gluten than flours found in the rest of the country and that makes for a lighter biscuit. I expected a fluffier biscuit from this Southern restaurant. The blueberry compote and honey were very good. The very cold butter made it difficult to spread without tearing apart the biscuits.\n\nI ordered the low country catfish advertised with blackening seasoning. Blackening seasoning, apparently, is different from blackened catfish. Cajun chef Paul Prudhomme caused a run on Louisiana redfish after inventing the blackening technique. This catfish was good, but it really wasn't blackened fish. \n\nFor the first time in my life, I ordered Brussels sprouts. Salt and pepper crispy sprouts. I had avoided them all my life because of the horrible smell that came forth when mom boiled them to death. Horrible! These were quite good. They remained crunchy and had none of that foul odor.\n\nI also had a side of goat cheese grits. Most people outside the South who say they don't like grits, I suspect, have never eaten them. They badmouth them because their parents and grandparents did the same. My family was like that. I discovered how good they could be during a trip to Indianapolis years ago. The best grits are stone-ground, from a time when many small towns in the Carolinas had their own grist mills. Tupelo Honey uses grits from Adluh Flour (I asked), a company from Columbia, S.C., that has operated since 1900. They were excellent. \n\nMy birthday was last week and Tupelo Honey sent me a coupon for a free dessert. I went for the brown butter pecan pie and it was wonderful. That was the first time I have had a pecan pie served warm, but our waiter Christian, who comes from Tennessee, said that was traditional in the South. it was very good.\n\nChristian, who already worked for Tupelo Honey before the Boise restaurant opened provided excellent service. He was friendly and came by quite often to see how we were doing. \n\nFor opening night, everything went surprisingly well. I was surprised when I made my online reservation it asked when we wanted a traditional table or a high-top. I was surprised we were taken to a high-top, when I asked for regular seating, but that wasn't a big deal.\n\nI'm glad no one was sitting out at the outdoor tables. A young son of one of the out-of-town executives was wiping off tables. He was cute and I can imagine he'll grow to work at Tupelo Honey for real.\n\nAll in all, we were quite pleased with our visit.\n\nOne odd thing about the Yelp reviews written so far is that out of seven previous reviews, three five-star reviews came from people who have only written one review. Another came from someone with two reviews. That always seems like a red flag. They were eager to review a place that just opened but not other places they have eaten at. Strange.", "Finally a freaking place with daaaaang good fried chicken! Tupelo Honey as they write it is \"a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina mountains we call home. Our recipes are simply crafted and made from scratch with responsibly sourced ingredients that bring the best of every season. For over 15 years, we have infused our Southern spirit into every bite.\" Honestly I could not agree more!\n\nI got to try their lunch chicken sandwich with some fries. They offer a large variety of different items from breakfast to dinner. I honestly cannot wait until I try all the different variations of flavors! They have flavors like honey dust, sweet and spicy, and bleu buffalo. I tried the sweet and spicy and I dont know if ill need anything else because it was so dang good! \n\nThey also offer just the fried chicken in similar flavor fashion with the customization of types of meats (dark meat vs white meat). If you're really feeling it you can also order half a bird. \n\nThis place did just open so it is really busy. I would recommend a reservation but if you just want to stop by you may have to wait a bit. I just came in and they said the wait was about 20 minutes but we got in about 15 minutes. The bar area is free seating so if you're over 21 that is a great option to sit right away.", "Came to Boise on business. I've been here for a week and I'm kinda upset I waited until my last day here to discover this gem. All the places here in Boise are great but this is probably my favorite taste because I'm a sucker for some good southern food which brings me to mention there aren't a lot of other places solely dedicated to southern food. The sweet and spicy fried chicken was crispy and seasoned to perfection. Tomato soup so creamy and flavorful. Mac and cheese was just ok but I also got the Mac and cheese balls which were wayyyy better and tasted like it included more cheeses. The crispy Brussels and they were perfect in every way. And lastly the drinks were not only very aesthetically pleasing they tasted just as great. So really overall everything was literally 10/10. Our service was quick and prompt but this place does get packed (rightfully so) so you might want to get there at an early time. Everyone was kind and friendly and multiple people checked on my table to see if everything was great. Wish I could take this place back home to nyc, they'd make a killing there!", "I've eaten here three times already and love it. All three times I came in for lunch by myself and was able to get in, order, eat, pay, and leave within 30 minutes. Pretty good for a sit down restaurant.\n\nThe first two times I ordered the Honey Dusted white meat fried chicken. The chicken was delicious both times.\n\nThe third time I got the fried chicken and biscuit. It tasted great, but the few shreds of greens it was decorated with seemed a little browned/wilted. I would have been happier with them them off. Overall I was still happy with the meal despite that.\n\nI definitely recommend checking this place out if you want to try some southern food in Boise." ]

I had a whole half to take home. \n\nService was quick and our waitress was very friendly. By the time we were leaving the diner was slammed. I highly recommend visiting Olga's! It's a great addition to our community!", "Olga's is back in marlton. This is their third day they were open so we figured there would be some growing pains. The decor is beautiful. Very modern very nice very good atmosphere. Service was fantastic. The food was good. Nothing really wowed me this time, but there were some items on the menu that looked good. Definitely want to go back after a few weeks to see how things have changed for the better. They're dessert bar looks great although I did not have any dessert. Nice big dessert case showing all of their cakes and pies and other sweets. Only real complaint, is the food could have been hotter. It was warm but just not hot. I wish them luck and we'll see how my review changes on the next visit.", "Excited to have Olgas back in town. The new restaurant and more gourmet menu are a big step up from the original. I love that they brought back the original script Olga sign.", "Service wasn't bad, forgot to ask what kind of toast I wanted with my meal... never got any toast. (Breakfast food). I had the south philly omelette. The sausage wasn't much, very fine crumbles and could not taste it. Hubby had burger, it was okay. If you're looking for meat in the omelette, don't order the South Philly... disappoints", "We went to the new Olga's for brunch. After walking through the wind tunnel front doors, we were immediately seated. I recognized the waitress who worked for many years at the Medport Diner in Medford. Her service was excellent keeping the coffee and tea cups always filled and the dirty dishes immediately removed.\nWe both had different types of omelettes which were very good.\nMy only complaint about the new Olga's is the pricing of the menus. It was very over priced.$33.89 plus tip is a lot of money for two omelettes a coffee and a tea. Think about it. They charge $2.75 for a tea bag and hot water. At those prices, I think people will go there once to see it but not rush back. They will continue to eat at there local favorite spots!", "Just opened a few weeks ago so I will not degrade them on service. It was packed and I think they were struggling to keep up. As to the food, there were good things and bad. The hummus appetizer was really good. The hummus and Babba ganoushe were great. The Greek salad was pretty mundane and the dressing was not good. Just tons of oil. If you are going to be a diner then make a great Greek salad. That is so important! Chop it, add some dill and lemon to your dressing. Make it zesty. My salad tasted undressed and when I got more dressing it was just oil. My friend's loaded BLT did not have enough bacon. He showed me and I was surprised. It looked good, but it was all bread. More bacon! The wrap my other friend ordered kind of fell apart. The truffle fries were the best thing we got. They were decent. Other items looked good at surrounding tables and the desserts looked really strong. The roast turkey at the table next to us looked delicious. I just don't think the food overall was very strong at our table. We will give it another try but I would not call this a great diner yet.", "Went on Sunday morning amd was sat pretty quick. After us the line was insane. The waitress Helen, who we know from her last job is the best! Got coffee out to us and took our orders! The problem was the kitchen. We didn't get our order for over 40 minutes. My husband got a healthy omelette and enjoyed! My egg white cheese was ok Much bigger in other diners!\nThe prices are way out of order!! We may try in the new year after they iron out kinks. \nIt's a beautiful restaurant and I hope it does well, but with the prices so high people won't be back!", "Very good! With a very friendly staff (especially Chris and Mark!), great food and great prices- I was not disappointed and I will be back!", "This is a place where everything on its menu is $2-4 higher than expected because it tries to be a diner with a gourmet twist. The service is overall good but the kitchen is overwhelmed; they ended up sending out a basket of (sublime) cranberry & walnut bread that had cross-contaminated with rosemary & roasted tomato flavors. My red velvet pancakes were bland, nothing like Grand Lux used to serve, what a drag. Crispy chicken wrap was reported as being 50% raw onion, sadly. The fries were OK, nothing dream-worthy.\n\nUpon leaving we spotted the owner oddly parking and quickly visiting the place thru the back kitchen. He was driving a newer Bentley Mulsanne (MSRP ~$304K+). If you wanna know why Olga's prices are so high, THAT'S why.\n\nWe'll stick with the Kettle & Grille...but might come back for that bread basket, though.", "I had been anxiously awaiting the opening of this new Olga's; it's just minutes from my house which is so nice. I'll start my review by saying, yes the other reviews that mention that the prices are higher are correct but 1: it's a brand new restaurant that when you walk can tell us nicer than your average Jersey diner 2: everything is definitely freshly made and not frozen and reheated, again like an average Jersey diner and 3: the portions of the dinners are insane. So if that extra $2-3 per item is a deal breaker for you, then drive a little further down 73 in either direction to a diner that's more your cup of tea, no need to continue reading about how great their food is. \n\nI had been craving greasy, hearty food which I generally stay away from during the week so we decided to try out Olga's on a Wednesday night. It is huge inside, and the wait was around 10 minutes which wasn't too bad at all. Our waitress clearly had a ton of tables but she was quicker to say hi and take our drink order than a lot of other places in area that overwhelm their staff. \n\nWe started with their mozzarella wedges that were delishhhh. Freshly made with the prefect amount of breading and their marinara sauce is not overly sweet and doesn't taste like it's from a can. I got the Parmesan chicken over linguine in a blush sauce. I got a salad to start, which my only real critique is that the dressing came on it when I always prefer on the side, but I didn't specify so I'll just make a note for next time. My meal was so good, the portion is huge and it comes with a fresh piece of garlic bread. The piece of chicken is so big I barely touched my pasta. My fiancé's chicken parm meal was also huge and equally as delicious. We didn't get dessert but they looked great in the case. \n\nWe will 100% back to try their other menu items. It's not the largest diner menu in the world, but I honestly would call this place a \"diner themed restaurant\" with plenty of options rather than just another diner." ]

[ "I went for lunch and got the Korean Fried Chicken half bird with the original sauce. I also got the kimchi fried rice and street corn as my sides. It was amazing and very well presented. The original sauce has that nice combination of sweet and heat. The chicken was tender and the sides were great. I would highly recommend them to anyone and they will be on my regular list of \"go to\" lunches!", "I've been waiting for this place to open for months and was really excited to see it was open today. I got the fried dark meat chicken with their original sauce and it was great. the skin was fried perfectly and really crispy. the Original Korean BBQ sauce was really good too. its brand new and I cant wait to try all their food.", "Absolutely delicious chicken, however I got the chicken tenders as they were out of wings, and the tenders were too small. I finished the rice and chicken expecting more.", "I was extremely hyped for Kimchi Guys to open. Korean-style fried chicken has been on my list for a while. Overall, however, my experience was good, but with some issues.\n\nFlavors were extremely tasty. I had the 2-pc White with Honey Butter sauce and Hot Fries and a 2-pc Dark with Original Korean sauce. With a drink, this rang in at just under $22. As it was opening night, I expected crowds and a wait. Luckily, the wait for my food was bearable, and I enjoyed the atmosphere.\n\nUnfortunately, there were some key issues with my overall experience. The biggest was that I didn't leave full. Even with four pieces of chicken and a side of fries, the small portions left me wanting more. I can understand running low on meatier pieces of chicken because of the crowds, but the wing with my White order was extremely disappointing. Looking around, I also saw a lot of inconsistency with the amount of food people were getting, especially the fries. Quality per piece and quality of sides should be maintained more. For the price, I would expect a more filling and satisfying meal.\n\nI admire this restaurant for bringing an underrepresented style of cooking to the area. I think if these concerns are addressed, I will happily return for more. But as they stand, I think re-evaluation is needed for either the prices, portions, or both.", "Came in not knowing what to expect, and I was blown away! I'm not one to veer much from the American standards when it comes to food, but I was apparently missing out. Clean, great service, and amazing selection of Korean drinks! Definitely coming back! And the WINGS!!!!", "The food is amazing!! Try the Bibimbap bowl with the Spicy Pork, it is fantastic!! The Kuban is also very good, so different from anything else you will try.", "STL has definitely been in need of a KBBQ spot and Kimchi Guys delivered.\n\nI was happy to see three different vegan/vegetarian options on the menu. While the vegan /chicken/ is a well-intentioned journey away from the usual tofu option, it wasn't as appetizing as hoped. If you've been to Costco, it is the same plant protein they use in their salads. Fairly salty and gummy. Hopefully fried, marinated tofu will be an option in the near future! I'd love to see tofu treated in a similar way to the rest of the fried chicken on their menu (similar to Southern). \n\nA comment that kept hitting my ear throughout the dinner was that the portions are small for the price point. A few of my friends and customers around me expressed that they left hungry after spending $20+. I hope that this was simply an opening-day supply concern and portions will grow to better reflect the prices in the future. \n\nI look forward to watching this fun, friendly new business grow!", "TL:DR - A new or first Korean fried chicken fast casual joint on laclede's landing. Chicken is very on point. Sauced chicken that is still somehow super crispy and juicy on the inside. Hot fries are perfect in everyway, crispy and perfectly seasoned. Paid parking lot across the street. Price is a bit high for the amount of food you get, but quality and flavor more than makes up for it.\n\nA new Korean friend chicken joint in STL. They say they're the first, but I don't know what constitutes a \"Korean fry\", but I do know the owners of o-wing plus are Korean... Anyways, coming in on opening day at 2pm, the place was decently packed. The interior reminds me a lot of Seoul taco's in that there's a lot of wood decor, menus on TV's, a snake around line, and they call your name to pick up your order. It's very upscale fast casual. Parking wise, I'm not very familiar with laclede's landing, but there is a paid parking lot across the street that's like $3 for an hour. Not sure of there's street parking nearby.\n\nBut on to the food! I got the two piece dark with original sauce and a hot fries combo. The chicken fry is perfect. It's super crispy and the sauce is somehow coated on there without making the skin soggy or soft and the inside of the chicken is ridiculously juicy (I almost used the m-word). The original sauce is a great Asian sauce with some soy sauce undertones, some sweetness, and a little bit of heat from what I'm guessing is Korean gochujang? Heat wise, it's most comparable to bdubs medium sauce if that helps. But one of the managing partners told me they will be coming out with a hotter sauce soon. The fries are also amazing. Crispy like those from Rally's, I'm not sure why they call them \"hot\" fries though. I was told is that it's because they have a hint of spice to them, but when eating some hot wings it doesn't really come through, which I'm ok with. The other sauces on the menu did look amazing though (Korean buffalo, soy garlic, and honey butter) and I will be back to try them all.\n\nMy only small gripe is that you don't get a ton of food for what you pay. My meal was about $10 but the chicken pieces weren't particularly large, fries were good for the amount of chicken though. I hate when you have like 3x as much dudes as the main. But while I didn't walk away hungry, I didn't walk away full either, which I usually expect to get close to for $10. This wasn't enough to take away a star though.", "The chicken is quite tasty but not moist. The food portion is also very small. Expect to pay at least $20++ to be full.\n\nThe other items on the menu are okay, but the mandu are terrible. The fries has a very similar taste to Arby's fries. The fried rice is good.", "Portion is wayyyy too small for the price. $10 bowl gets you very little. The original wings are more sweet than savory or \"spicy\" as they say. It's just meh.\n\nConsidering how little food you get, how much of a pain to park, and the fact their wings are covered with syrup, I probably won't come back." ]

This place has some serious issues, and I would be surprised if it is around long.", "I second that, Chad! Very disappointing. I'm not sure if the recipes changed or if the meat was just not good that day but I will not be going back.", "If I could rate this in negative stars, I would. Went last night, ordered a curry potato dish and my companion a curry chicken dish. No appetizer. Only four occupied tables.\nWaited 50 minutes for food. Water glasses were empty for 15 minutes before a refill was offered. Had to send back the potato dish as they were undercooked. My companion was brought the wrong chicken dish at a spice level way above what she ordered.\nI can't understand why they feel comfortable charging $14 for a lunch sized portion of five marble sized potatoes after 6:00pm.\nNo apologies were offered. Will not go back.", "I was told there are new owners, which may be why my experience was completely different than the previous reviews. My husband and I love Indian food and have been to many Indian restaurants from New York to Florida to London. This is the best we've experienced. The vegetable Samosas were lighter and less fried than we've had before and full of flavor. My husband's lamb dish was perfectly spiced. And my chicken dish was out of this world. The chicken was high quality. Everything was. Our server recommended we order light to medium spice id we wanted not too hot or light - great advice. She and the other staff were super nice. Our only complaint is that we couldn't order a wine by the glass except the house wine, which I tasted and didn't care for. But the by the bottle selection was decent and somewhat reasonable for a restaurant. I highly recommend, and I suspect we'll be regulars.", "Went to their noon buffet, good atmosphere, lots of variety in the buffet, excellent rice and naan bread, masala tea included in the buffet, nice people, typical Indian buffet price, quite a few customers, plenty of parking. Big menu. We liked it, will go again.", "This is my favorite Indian restaurant in the Clearwater and possibly the entire Tampa Bay Area. The food is fantastic and I order take out from here regularly. After trying to find a good local Indian restaurant I think we have found a gem. I keep going back. Highly recommended if you love Indian food!", "Great family owned restaurant. Very accommodating to me and my husband - I don't like spicy food and he does. We both left very full and happy. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend.", "Been eating here regularly since it opened. I pick up large order of takeout every Friday night. Last week they messed up part of my order. We called and they promised to replace the incorrect meal (the part they got wrong) the next time we come through (it is a one hour round trip to go there). This week we came in and they reversed on their promise and instead took only 15 % off the replacement meal. \n\nSo if you are a loyal customer who comes in every week they will NOT take care of you when the screw up. I'm taking my business to Dheeya on Gulf to Bay as I am not stepping foot in Little India again. The food isn't good enough to put up with terrible service so Dheeya gets my weekly takeout budget from here on out.", "My husband & i go here on our date nights. Our server is always pleasant. The food is outstanding, my favorite so far is the chicken green marsala. Love this place!!", "This was my favorite restaurant under the old name and now even better food with new name. I love the lunch Buffett with the most selection on a buffett. \nThey even have the fusion food Indo-Asian. I have yet to try because I can't get past my favorite dishes.\nNOTICE: PAY no mind to most of these negative reviews. NOTICE they are FAKE by no friends and new account." ]

Once looking over at the table next to us a plate of what was supposed to be calamari came out and I wanted to order some but was SOO happy I watched there's come out first, it looked like dry frozen garbage. I'm used to good Italian food and NOT 1 single item we received was good. Plus the check came out with mistakes on it and we saw the owner apologize to multiple tables along with there young kids fighting and running around the restaurant all night.. Waste of money, will never return.", "All right, 2nd visit here. Had the Veal Parm & it was excellent. Brought 3 other couples with us tonite and everyone was very happy with their meals.

It's a total gem and you should make a reservation.", "Had dinner with 2 friends on a Sat nite. The owner made us stand outside even though his open sign was on. Dinners were good. I went back the next week with my nephew. I had veal parm that looked like shoeleather. Tasted like it too. I should have sent it back but we were having a nice time and I didn't want to be confrontational. I gave it to the wildlife the next day. Moral: If it doesn't look good it probably isn't.", "The restaurant was very busy, which is always a good sign. The waitress was young and learning. I ordered chicken Parmesan and my wife got the special of lobster ravioli. My chicken was good but the marinara sauce on the spaghetti was so watery and bland. If I had done a blind fold test I would have thought there was no sauce on it. \n\nAs for the lobster ravioli it was very good. The sauce was flavorful and the ravioli was tasty. \n\nOverall.

We got a meatball poboy which came with cheeses, a quite sweet marinara sauce, and homemade meatballs; and a side of chips. We also got the shrimp and grits which was very well seasoned.

I came here cause honestly, with everyone panic buying I was kinda afraid to go to the super market to make my own and I'm really tired of getting them with pizza. I just want wings. And this place hella hit the spot. Great selections, I probably shoulda ordered more tater tots cause that was the bomb. And, I really do love coleslaw done right. And these guys can do it right. Although, I did make a crucial mistake. I shoulda probably got my whole order as Thai peanut butter (as it was in my honest opinion the best) but, I only read the lime part of the chipotle lime rub flavor and my tongue is still on fucking fire. So, if you're masochistic and want really good spicy rubs, this is the place to go. If you wanna satisfy your wing craving, this spot is your medicine.", "Santa Barbara is missing a good wing spot and Wingman hits it.

Wherever you get your wings, you're getting a false sense of what a buffalo wing is supposed to be. You're supposed to have a nice hearty bite into a chicken wing. It should taste cooked, and it shouldn't feel rubbery. For all you \"wood fired\" people I don't think you have any input. These guys nailed it. I admire the guys for asking if I wanted Blue Cheese or Ranch. I know you west coasters are loyal to your ranch but wings are served with blue cheese, period. Take it from a guy who grew up in BUFFALO, NY. We invested this stuff. I was fed wings with breast milk as a baby. This place would do well there. Please try and consider blue cheese. Thanks.", "CA doesn't know good wings, Santa Barbara's even more lost on that front. Luckily a good Texas boy finally moved out here and saved us. Their fried chicken sandwich, the wings, the tots, and even the slaw is awesome. Definitely recommending this to place to lots of people, I'm from the south myself so trust me when I say I know good southern foods. These guys are brand spankin' new and worth every penny and second of your time.", "This place is where the Shop Kitchen is on Milpas St. \nWe did the 40 wings + 4 sauce deal. They didn't have the chipotle lime on their website to order, so I had to call in my order. I was told they were still working on the chipotle lime cuz it was spicy. I am not sure if they made my chipotle lime less spicy but spice level was less spicy than hot Cheetos. I will say it ended up being my favorite flavor because it had a nice spice level and the lime was not overpowering. We also had buffalo wings which are like your standard sauce and the Sichuan tingly was a little too sweet for me and it had that famous Sichuan pepper tingly/numbing feel (I think they nailed it well). We ordered the Cali red bbq sauce and Thai peanut sauce on the side. The Cali red bbq sauce was not overly sweet or overly vinegary I thought it was ok. The Thai peanut sauce made me want Thai and I think they captured the flavors well. It had that peanut sauce flavor with some hoision? Or some other Asian flavors in it. Their ranch sauce was creamy and flavorful and the blue cheese was super chunky and stinky (blue cheese is known to be stinky). The coleslaw was a little on the sweet side for me but well seasoned. The tater tots were your standard tot and I liked dipping them in the different sauces. I will say they season their wings really well and didn't find the need to dip them into any additional sauces.", "Just what sb needed. A late night grub spot, Awesome wings and friendly staff!

This will be a regular!", "This place is so, so delicious! Such great ingredients and so fresh. Amazing Chicken Tikka Masala, Palak Paneer and garlic naan! Will be ordering very, very often.", "Our new favorite Indian restaurant! We loved everything we ordered (for delivery during Covid), which included: coconut chicken curry, beef kabobs, samosas, and naan. It's not the cheapest Indian food, but it's very nice quality.

Just picked up lunch which was a good deal (and they were kind enough to throw in some complimentary dal). Hope to see them survive, it must be hard to open during SIP - welcome to the neighborhood! We had:\n\nlamb korma - finally a korma in the city that isn't to sweet! loved it. \ncoconut chicken curry - loved this one's deep flavor and will get next time instead of the tikka masala - definitely has visible fine shredded coconut in the sauce\npalak paneer - good flavor but texture was more pureed than we are used to, would still order again\nchicken tikka masala - our only miss: too sweet for my taste \ngarlic naan - so good! lots of fresh garlic and ghee, thin but tender and bubbly, looked just like the main picture posted.\nmango lassi - not too sweet, packed perfectly to withstand carryout", "An excellent addition to the neighborhood! I went to pick up tikka masala and chicken manchurian gravy. The food was flavorful and ready quickly. I highly recommend the food and look forward to eating in the restaurant!", "Whoa. We ordered delivery from here per the recommendation of some nice folks on Nextdoor. I grew up eating desi food, so I know what good desi food tastes like. I've been really disappointed with most Indian restaurants here in Philly, but the food here was phenomenal! So much flavor, great texture, not oily. I'm so happy to have found Lazeez!" ]

[ "First off, my family is good friends with the owners here and they are the best people. With that aside, even if I didn't know the owners, I would highly recommend this shop. It may look like a little pizza shop in a strip mall (it is in the Ivy Ridge Shopping Center in Rox), but their pizza and non-pizza items are to die for. They offer a wide variety of non-pizza entrees and at the front of the store they have a whole bunch of pizzas out so you can just choose a whole mix of slices. \n\nI'm very much of a snob with pizza and their pizza is one of the few places that meets my standards. \n\nAs for the hoagies, for me they are ok, but I have definitely had better. Their steaks are ok too, but not quite up to my standards either.", "best pizza i have ever had in philadelphia. good pasta dishes and a decent cheesesteak. i am a regular.", "Really good italian food and some of the best pizza in the neighborhood. With a good 30 or so pizza shops in Roxborough it's saying a lot that this is one of the best.", "great place to stop in for a slice or two. one of the best mushroom pizzas around, and also a wide selection of the more funky toppings.\n\n\nupdate: got a pie to go and its still good, but very different, fresh out of the oven. if you want the same great taste and texture as their by the slice stuff you need to let it cool off and then reheat later.", "This is a decent place for grabbing a slice or two of pizza. The pizza is good and they have nice selections. The rest of the food is mediocre. I've definitely had better. My advice would be to drive a 1/2 mile up Ridge Ave (toward Conshy) and try Pina's Pizza. They have great pizza, excellent stromboli and large portions.", "Ever since my husband and I first visited this restaurant the day we were apartment hunting in the area, we have been fans. We get pizza to go at least once a week, and are always satisfied. We both tend to rotate among several of the same toppings, but every kind we've had is good. I definitely recommend the buffalo chicken or the chicken bacon ranch (it's an added bonus if you can get a slice with both on it).\n\nWe also enjoy that the employees recognize us and take the time to see how we're doing. It's a very friendly atmosphere, and I will be sad to be further than walking distance from it later this year.", "Good food, scantly laid out inside, has that 'ordinary \" pizza shop feel. Waitresses are great", "Will not be going back! Maybe the pizza is good (never had it), but the pasta is BAD. My chicken parm was bland, with almost no sauce or cheese. My boyfriend's ravioli came with 5 small raviolis and several cups of sauce. You had to go fishing for the pasta. Iceberg salads unremarkable. Overall a total let down after we read the reviews.", "The best pizza in Roxborough and Manayunk. The crust is not too thick, not too thin, just perfect. There are so many toppings to choose from. My favorite's are any of the white with veggies, but the red pizzas are great, too. Excellent sauce and cheese. Delivery is a little slow, so order with that in mind.", "I am always so impressed when I get a young wait person and they are super customer service oriented and attentive. Maybe I am just being ageist but it really does stand out to me, as did the young woman who was our server here. \n\nThe food was a solid four star. Pizza was fine, the pasta was copious and nicely garnished. My husband got one with olives, capers, and anchovies and loved it. I wish they had real mushrooms instead of canned. Can't have it all.\n\nWe will be back." ]

Quick summary:\nWings/brisket - 10 out of 10\nTurkey sandwich - bacon was 12 out of 10 and turkey great but sandwich fell apart\nBaked beans - disappointing too crunchy \nStaff was great and love the idea of order and find a table - Staff guy who came over at end was super cool and said other great things to try are ribs, chicken sandwich and pastrami sandwich - I will be back! \nBeer - great but no surprise it's LaCabra - watch out to the snobby beer buys brewing in 19003\nBottom line - Meat and beer lovers paradise", "Chef Luke is a genius in this new live fire kitchen. The wings, rabbit leg, ribs, chicken and pastrami sandwiches are some of my favorites so far. Pair that with some tasty beers from La Cabra and you have a match made in heaven.

You have to try this fantastic new spot right on the main line across from the Bryn Mawr Hospital!", "Went to try it out as I like La Cabra brewery in Berwyn. First I am happy to have a place in my neighborhood I can easily walk to. Then the beers are awesome although pricey at 8$ a pint. This easily adds up to 10$ with a tip!\n\nFor food I had a nice mixed salad with fruit and cheese and paired a small piece of tasty brisket with an excellent water melon salad. Will definitely be back, nice crew of people but no table service and a little pricey makes this a 4* for me.", "Great food and some of the best beer in the area. What more could you want? The new spot has its own distinct feel, with all the warmth of the Berwyn location. Oh, the pit sauce is an awesome Memphis style, vinegar based dip. Just great all around!", "Bit pricey, but the food is good and it's so close to where I live. \n\nMy girlfriend doesn't like beer too much so it is pretty cool that they have wine options. \n\nI like 93.7% of the beers I tried. \nDef worth checking out. Always happy to see new places with tasty food & drinks sprouting up.", "Really awesome concept- upscale \"faster food\". You can order items Togo from a kiosk which is super convenient or you can order at the bar. Serving La Cabra beer plus wine, you can't go wrong! Some of my favorites so far are the chips and dip, hot chicken sandwich, steak salad, and ribs! A must try!", "The ribs and brisket are out of this world. The beer selection is awesome. The staff is very friendly. Can't wait to try the burnt ends next time. This is the best BBQ on the mainline by far.", "Looks like I found my neighborhood microbrewery. Stopped by at 4:30 for an afternoon lager", "Go for a beer, maybe it will be better than the one I had (the porter). Under no circumstances would I order anything to eat. It is not ready to replace Biga as a place for eating dinner. Perhaps the sandwiches are good but EVERYTHING our group of four ordered : ribs, half roasted chicken special (hah) Bar Board and several sides were just awful, seemingly cooked long before we got there. Hard to believe this is related to the Berwyn La Cabra where I enjoyed several meals. Despite being so close to home, I'll not return.", "This place was a bit expensive for the portion size (at least the salads) (however the sides were generous). Not much in the way of vegetarian entrees except for a couple of salads. They were out of half of their appetizers when we were there. The margarita beer was pretty good." ]

[ "I was incredibly lucky to be able to check out Fabrika before they official open next week! At their open house/preview, they were previewing 2 cocktails, wine/beer, a smattering of menu-item minis, and most importantly, the entertainment that makes Fabrika a dinner \"theater\".\n\nFabrika would perhaps be more aptly called a dinner cabaret or variety show, with entertainment ranging from burlesque style to opera! With a high ceiling, industrial-style sculptures and voluptuous chandeliers, it's the perfect backdrop for the central stage that raises up and down. The lounge-type seating throughout provides views of the stage from every angle -- it's the perfect setting for your next happy hour or date night.\n\nThe food hits on the trending Middle Eastern cuisine, and leans towards tapas with a number of small plates as well as entrees. The flavors were complex and intriguing, and paired perfectly with the extensive cocktail menu. I also tried a few bartender-created mocktails, and the slightly bitter juices elevated the flavors on our plates.\n\nI'm very excited to head to Fabrika when it's officially open and sample more of the menu and entertainment!", "I can't say enough about this jaw dropping new dinner theater in Fishtown. I read an article in Philly eater about this place opening 2/4 and decided to make reservations ASAP to see if it live up to the hype. So....it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life and the most incredible birthday celebrations of my life. Upon entering this redone ice cream machine factory, you are mesmerized by beautiful chandeliers and steam punk decor. Next you are escorted to your table, which all seem to have a great view of the stage that rises and falls during the performances. Mediterranean food was served family style for $55 a person. Dishes that were served included pita bread, hummus with pine nuts, Georgian salad, meatballs with a yogurt dipping sauce, grilled octopus (the best), falafel, and lamb chops with a pistachio sauce. Everything was amazing. The wait staff was incredible considering it was opening weekend and packed. Before the gender neutral bathrooms was a common place with the massive swanky chair, tub filled with rose petals, and a piano, this soon became the ideal place for snapping pics for social media. Entertainment included burlesque, contortionists, and everything in between. These performers were extremely talented and had the crowd riled up. I can't remember, if ever, the last time I've been so highly entertaIned and never had I had such a memorable birthday. I'm actually pretty sure the rest will never live up to this night. Just when you thInk I can't say more, Fabrika also has an amazing drink list, can be rented out for weddings, has VIP bottle service, and is probably a great place for bachelorette parties. Okay, I think I've given you the low down on this snazzy new place that I probably won't be able to get into again because there'll be no reservations available, so I'll stop wasting your time so you can go make your own reservations. Enjoy!", "My wife and I really enjoyed this experience. Great food from an experienced top Philly chef. The ambiance and entertainment was very impressive. The manager and staff all seemed very passionate about trying to create something unique. I recommend an open mind and giving it a try. The food isn't cheap but you are also paying for the entertainment.", "It's amazing. Food was great, drinks were great, and entertainment was different, interesting, and great.\n\nIt's definitely an experience!", "ASK FOR DOM! Food was incredible. Ambiance was definitely something to write home about. Will be back!", "Recommendation: book the latest possible dinner. The later it gets, the higher quality the entertainment.\n\nThe interior is tastefully decorated and this is the perfect place to grab dinner and stay for drinks. Different performers come on stage periodically while you eat progressing in frequency as the night goes on. Drinks are unique. The food was good, but you come to this place for the atmosphere.\n\nUnfortunately my only complaint is that the entrees are appetizer sized. If you came for a feast this is not the place to be. 3 bites of pork and fish is not an entree. A hot dog sized skewer of lamb is not an entree. At an average $30 a plate, there is no excuse to be conservative on the portions. \n\nThe entertainment includes a diverse variety of performers separated by 20 minute intermissions. \nBefore 9:30PM - PG\n9:30-11PM- PG13\n11PM + Results may vary!", "Let me start off by saying - this place has SO much potential and I'm excited for them to grow. I definitely will be returning and will update my review after another dining experience. \n\nMy fiancé and I came here for Valentine's Day dinner. I was really looking forward to experiencing all the great things being said about this place. I was immediately in love with what they had done with the space. The ambiance was energetic and the entertainers were phenomenal. I couldn't believe I was in fishtown experiencing this. I would give it a 5/5 for entertainment. \n\nHowever, everything else fell below average. I would give a 1/5 for the rest of the experience. \n\nWe had purposely booked a 10:30pm reservation from advise we had received and we were told they had RAN OUT OF FOOD!!!! I'm not talking just some food, ALL food from their dinner menu! I couldn't believe it - how could the restaurant not prepare for Valentine's Day crowds?! On top of that- they had us even put down a credit card for our reservation so they should've been prepared! We asked if we could order off the late night menu which technically did not start until 11:00pm...and we were told no! In fact, she would not take our order until 11:15pm. We were starving at this point...only to find out items on the late night menu were also out of stock! At this point we were just frustrated and annoyed at our dining experience and how they were very un-accommodating. \n\nTo be fair, what little food we did get was honestly pretty good. The falafel was delicious. But 20 minutes into us eating, our server hands us the check. We had to remind her we had ordered a dish that had yet to even come out...I was even a little more irked our waitress was not already aware of this. When we finally finished, she handed us the check and said \"I tried to find my manager to comp your drinks but I couldn't find him, sorry.\" I was so annoyed by this...why even mention that? We didn't even ask for free drinks, but It made me feel she didn't try hard enough to accommodate us for our failed Valentine's Day \"dinner\". We went to grab some late night food after because we were still hungry. \n\nHonestly, I'm hoping they will fix these problems because like I started off saying, this place could really be something great.", "We got here early at 8 p.m. so I wont be able to comment on the club atmosphere that begins at 10 p.m.. During the earlier hours there is still some softer music as well as performers. The mime and magician was especially fun to interact with. The decor was very interesting. It was elegant and modern but had an industrial feel that fit well given the area we are in.\n\nThe food was alright. I'd suggest coming later for a cocktail or two and the late night menu. We were there for dinner and got the spiced baby eggplant, grilled lamb short ribs, and the beef sirloin kebab.\n\nDefinately do some research into what the dishes look like. Some of the pricing felt inconsistent for what you got. For example, using my pictures that go with this review, the grilled lamb short ribs only cost $3 more than the baby eggplant. That being said eggplant was still delicious. It was nicely roasted and the sauce and pomegranate that comes with it paired really well.\n\nThe lamb short ribs were a little greasy, but fell apart with the touch of the fork. The green beans with almonds and dates were a nice touch to match then heaviness of the short ribs.\n\nThe beef sirloin kabobs were also pretty good. You get three pieces of meat alternated with onions on a skewer, and a roasted potato. There is also yoghurt and charmoula served with it if you wish (felt very much like a take on steak and a baked potato with sour cream). The meat was cooked to a nice medium but one of the pieces was half fat that you couldn't bite through. \n\nOverall it's a cool place that I wouldn't mind coming back to for their late night menu and a cocktail or two (I honestly would skip sitting down for dinner again). Pair that up with the entertainment and you have a solid night in a very interesting atmosphere.", "Great place and ppl so far Nick and Chobe both bartenders who greeted us are and were amazing... offered opportunity to drink with 5mins left. Deff need to return due to amazing hospitality. You know the saying you judge a person and places in the first 5mins.... this place deserves some attention. Will return and update review", "Great New Place! Definitely fits it's billing as an \"EQUAL PARTS RESTAURANT & ENTERTAINMENT VENUE\". The food was great (Mediterranean style). The entertainment (cabaret)was eye popping and incredibly talented. Can't imagine this place not being a big hit in the Philly club/restaurant scene." ]

It's in the old Quiznos at the north end of Concord Plaza.

I just wish they would have come with dipping tzatziki. Overall they were great.\n\nI got the Chicken Donner Sandwich. I couldn't resist seeing the seasoned chicken spinning on the spit. It was delicious. I think they are making there own bread there as well. I'm not sure though. I really enjoyed the sandwich!

We only ate half of our meals (doner kebab and gyro) and appetizer (hummus). I look forward to going back to try more of the entrees. \n\nFriendly staff. Decent amount of seating. If I had to deduct points for anything is that they don't serve fountain drinks here; just bottled drinks.", "I grew up on a Mediterranean island, and it is rare to find a place in St Louis that can do a real gyro.

Easily some of the best falafel we've tasted in St. Louis, and the sandwich was huge. I had the Doner salad that was excellent with tons of flavor. Most Mediterranean salads tend to be hunks of lettuce, tomatoes, feta with lamb thrown on top. Meh. This salad was well presented with dressing, lemon, etc. on the side, and everything sort of compartmentalized. Who raves about a salad?!? Again, really nice owners, and the contemporary decor is a bonus (check out the colored crate lights). So good.", "Was in the area, and I never turn down a good gyro...I was not disappointed!

The Italian Chop salad was tossed in the perfect amount of a great, but not overpowering dressing that perfectly married the cheeses. Wedge also had the perfect amount of balsamic to accompany, not overpower the blue cheese. Both very well balanced. They were so good in fact, that when our entrees and desert came out, we just dug in and forgot to take pics. We had Spaghetti and Meatballs and Chicken Pesto Pasta as entrees.

[ "You can tell that folks in the Newtown, Bucks County, PA, area were hungry for great pizza, because Vince's Pizzeria and Taproom was absolutely jammed at 4:30 on the weekday afternoon I stopped in to check it out. There was hardly an empty parking space to be found. \n\nAnd, I understand why. Our region has a load of pizza shops, but extremely few that really know the pizza business (read, none). The people behind Vince's have several generations invested in making superlative dough and sauce, and using quality cheeses to create exceptional pies. Only the sainted DeLorenzo's transplanted from Jersey compares. \n\nLuckily for me, there was room at one of the large community tables in the back of the house. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. We ended up in extended conversations as we chowed down. There was a couple from Yardley, and another from Trenton, NJ. We were all there to sample the wares, and drink from the fountain of beers along the rear wall. It worked fairly well, although it was obvious that they were still on their shakedown cruise, this being their first week in operation. \n\nThe taproom concept is still new and not readily available. It requires the purchase of a RFID chipped card that attaches above the tap to the beer selected, releasing the brew into 12 oz. glasses which are filled by the customer. The available inventory is pictured above each tap, with brief description to help you choose. The beer card is good for 32 oz., after which you must pay for a reinfusion of funds. It all gets a bit complicated, as it seemed that the staff was repeated asking for a credit card for that, and again at check out. I handed mine over three times - there should be a better system in place. \n\nYet, all is forgiven because the tomato pie/pizza is so damn good! The crust is thin, but stays firm from first munch to last. No drooping points here. The taste is like a first rate cracker, with a little saltiness that offsets the mild sweetness of the sauce above. There is just the right ratio of red to white, so there is no excess run off from cheese oils, nor watery tomatoes. From first steaming bite to last cool belly filler, the consistency is constant with crunchy crust and easily distinguishable ingredients. These are high quality pies. \n\nAll I can say is that the other pizza joints in and around Newtown are in trouble now. The competition just jumped up a few notches. Once word gets out that Vince's is the new sheriff in town, the old boys will find themselves out of luck, and will have to improve their game if they want to stay in business. \n\nIt's about time! Thank you, Vince's!", "Stopped in on the second night after the grand opening and left fully satisfied after some of the best pizza we've had in quite some time. Super friendly and attentive service combined with delicious pizza and cold beers made for happy parents and kids alike. Brought along neighbors recently arrived from Italy and they were extremely impressed and offered that Vinces has the best pizza they've tried so far in Bucks County. Waitress brought around samples of the pear and Gorgonzola pizza and it was really good. Can't wait to go back and looking forward to being regular customers for a long time.", "Stopped in over last weekend, had a wait, which was no surprise considering the parking lot was mostly full. \nWhen we got our table we ordered 1/2 pig(sausage and pepperoni)and 1/2 white with mushrooms. The white was a little dry but the pig was delicious. \nWe loved the beer wall. Just pour as much as you want as and pay by the oz. Fair prices and good selection. \nVery good and friendly service.", "That place has amazing pizza and a pretty cool self serve beer taps. Beer is charged by the ounce and you fill your own flight or pint by using an rfid card. The pizza comes out piping hot and the sauce is delicious. The crust is thin and doughy. I will come back when in the area!", "Had high expectations....i was pressed for time and ordered to go. 2 pies,Stromboli and family style greek salad. $73 sounded fair. What i got was an average salad for 1 (not a family), a good sized Stromboli that was 90% dough, one good spinach pie and one pie that tasted like ragu on white bread. Maybe I just had a bad experience but it will be my last.", "*Update 7/10. We have to say the pizza was better than we expected! We judge off Quality Ingredients (taste) & Size that you get for the Price. With a few improvements we can see choosing & recommending here... A for Quality!\n\nPRO: Sweet sauce; dough tastes so fresh like it's homemade that day; seemingly real cheese; pepperoni wasn't oily. Overall flavors tasted fresh.\n\nCON: very little cheese (one bite & the remaining piece was completely cheeseless & not bc it all pulled off, it was that lite). One of the pics is spot on for appearance; pie is def on the smaller side for s large- not big enough for three hungry people; slices were all different in size too. $17.50 for 1 pizza w/ 1/2 pepperoni thats on smaller size? Could get quite pricey for a few pies.\n\nWe'll order again & see if the cheese improves, that would take it to 4+ Stars. Its a thinner pizza so don't expect to walk away full (which is good for me but the guys & teenagers would need close to 3-4 slices ea sitting to match a regular pie).\n ----------------------------------------------\n#1 We live 5 min away, just called to order our 1st take out order...unfortunately, it was so loud she couldn't even hear my name!? 4x I had to repeat myself (?)

First impression, congrats on the crowd on a Tuesday but please reconsider your phones location out of respect for incoming calls/orders, etc.", "Very basic menu - you can have pizza and salad. Oh, and there's a stromboli option too.\n\nThe pizza is terrific. Definitely try \"The Pig.\"\n\nStill a very new spot, so expect to wait, but enjoy the self-service beer wall. Choose from about a dozen beers and four wines. Pay by the ounce and totally reasonable. You can try just an ounce or two of each and keep going back to try more!", "Pizza and Stromboli were very good. Service was excellent \n Here's were they are blowing it. Beer is not cheep but that's ok. I don't want to pay top dollar for good beer served improperly. The problem is it's served in warm glasses that will not support a head. Glasses should be cleaned in a beer glass cleaner and rinse then put in a chiller or cooler full of ice. I want to see this place make it. I love the concept.

A little overwhelming, but once you start looking, you get the gist.\nLaura waited on me and she is a spectacular, friendly lady. Her husband Joe came out to say hello and was just as nice.\nI ordered a cheese steak with fried onions and Whiz, and I will tell you it was by far the best cheesesteak I've had in years!!! I will definitely be going back and I suggest whoever goes there will make it there \"go-to\" place.\nRosemarie", "The service was top notch! We walked in with 20 teenagers and they pumped out cheesesteaks in minutes!

This place is like a south philly shop transplanted here in fairless hills. So fresh and delicious! We had The Rocky, the BLT chicken cutlet and the Frank Rizzo and each one was equally amazing. Not to mention the owners seems to genuinely care about their business and are super friendly. Will be back for sure!!", "My husband and I were looking for a local sandwich shop and heard great things about Johnny Longhots. Boy were the reviews right! We were blown away by how well made the sandwiches are, how much food they give you and the taste is BEYOND AMAZING!! I also want to note the customer service is exceptional which is sometimes hard to find in this area. \n\nWe ordered \"The Paulie\" with chicken which includes vodka sauce, sautéed spinach and sharp provolone. When I say it was tasty, that is an understatement! I was blown away by how good it was! My husband had the \"Meatball Parmigiana\" which had meatballs, marinara sauce and mozzarella on one of the \"best rolls\" he's ever had! Both sandwiches were hot, loaded with food and again, taste AMAZING!! \n\nThe food was so good we are going back again tonight!

Seems like a family run business which is nice to see this type of business in town", "Couldn't wait to try Johnny Longhots out but once I did wanted to go back because loved how fresh everything was. They have a great menu with so many choices, it's hard to decide. Finally went back and was not disappointed at all. Again all was fresh, Very clean and a friendly staff. They also have pickles, sweet peppers and hot pepper bar all complimentary", "We order the tuna salad deli sandwich, cheesesteak with onions & mushrooms, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, don pepperoni chicken cutlets & cheeseburger. \n\nThe tuna salad deli sandwich was good, but the bread could have been toasted. The cheesesteak good. The side are okay. The cheeseburger was ok, frozen patty not fresh. We didn't get to taste what Don pepperoni chicken cutlets taste because they never pack it in our to go order. Such shame that they didn't care to check if you have received all yourr order. Especially when it was not even busy. I can see when they are pack a mistake can happen but not when it was dead.", "I'm not often compelled to leave reviews but I stumbled upon this place and WOW! I live in south philly and am pretty passionate about hoagies, I got \"the yunk\" and it didn't disappoint ! Soft bread, meat cut to order, perfect lettuce tomato onions. \nThe service was so good, the women at the register was so patient with the customers, very informative and went out of her way to make sure everyone knew what they were ordering so ensure they liked it. They also have a FIXIN BAR which brought me more excitement then I knew was possible. \nPlace was very clean and decked out in philly gear. \nI'm going to make sure to come back even though it's 40 minutes away from my house. \n\n\nThank you!!!", "Ordered take out. Told 20-25 minutes, 50 minutes later finally got my food. Cheesesteak was very fatty and nowhere near enough whiz. Gonna guess fries were done on time cuz they were cold and mushy.

With a nice variety to choose from and with quality ingredients, I believe there is something here for everyone. \n\nGreat place to stop for a quick bite. You can never go wrong with a miso soup before a meal. Beautifully presented with the perfect amount of greens inside. The rainbow roll was also pretty good. The ingredients and the fresh fish however, are what stole the show for me. I truly enjoyed the salmon. \n\nEasy to order and easier to enjoy. Can't wait to visit for more.", "We decided to try this new sushi bar and it exceeded our expectations. We tried all the specials on the board. The toro was very fresh with great texture. The owner suggested that we try the Snow Fish and it was excellent with a buttery taste. The service was prompt and polite. We travel frequently to Japan and the quality here was just as good as sushi bars in Tokyo and Kyoto. Overall, dinner was comparable if not better than local Japanese restaurants like Sun Sushi and Sakana.", "Great new addition to the public market. I really came on here to say, \"don't miss the Crispy Kama!!\" Yummmmm... \n\nOverall this is an authentic sushi place-- not a ton of crazy sauces, just beautiful, fresh fish. The Chu Toro and Bluefin Tuna were amazing. The Poke Tuna salad is bright and fresh. My favorite roll was the scampi tempura. You can't go wrong with seaweed salad, garlic shishito peppers, and carpaccio similar to Arigato's but with a variety of fish. But the Kama stole the show! Don't miss that one.", "Wow! This is a phenomenal new spot for fresh sashimi and sushi at top of the pecking order in town. Excellent quality and great service! \n\nSushi chef Buck helps guide you which fish are esp good and will make recommendations if you ask. But all great quality. I have not been disappointed with any orders yet. A special mention for Chu-Toro, for sure ! \n\nLastly, I'm anti-roll person ... and really avoid trying to order any rolls. Period. But my wife ordered the \"Don't cry\" roll, given its growing urban folklore. \n\nI tried it... and Bam ! I'm fan. Unique and sooooo good. Warning though. It's very spicy.. but it's tempura'd lightly and to perfection.. And just unbelievably that good. Must try at least once, esp if u have a palate for spiciness.\n\nFew caveats. Sushi bar seating only, which I enjoy and prefer. No formal tables but if u need a table, rest of Public Market tables are available. No alcohol license but one can get it anywhere else in Public Market and have it with the food", "Located in SB Public Market. \n\nPros:\n+Amazingly fresh fish\n+Casual seating\n+good pricing for the quality of food\n\nCons: none!\n\nBeyond thrilled that a local sushi spot opened that serves fresh hamachi. Fish that melts in your mouth. I tried both the Japanese Yellowtail and Premium Yellowtail. Difference is that premium yellowtail is $1 more as it's leaner. Rainbow roll has actual real crab meat. This will be my go-to sushi spot!", "My new favorite sushi spot in town. Buck and Nui are so friendly and make incredible rolls. The crunchy roll is delicious and perfectly crunchy. The ambiance is fun and vibrant as it is apart of the Public Market in Santa Barbara. I will come back many times in the future as I had a great time!", "Fresh ingredients, tasty food, and a sparkling clean kitchen. The owners are also very caring and conscientious! Highly recommend this new spot inside Santa Barbara Public Market!", "All I can say is absolutely yummy. Don't miss this hidden gem!! The staff is super friendly and upbeat. There is a roll called the don't cry roll - get that! Love the way they serve the edamame. Spicy \nMy only critique is that I am over drinking out of mason jars. Let's move on to some nicer glassware. Can't wait to go back!", "If you care about high quality fish more than tons of crazy roll options, then you will love this place. The fish is so fresh and simply melts in your mouth. The Chu toro is the best I've had in Santa Barbara (even better than Arigato!) and you get huge pieces of fish. The red snapper nigiri is also incredible and is served with scallions and a delicious ponzu sauce. If you want rolls go with the Don't Cry or the Shrimp Tempura Scampi. The owner is so friendly and helps recommend what is fresh that day. Great addition to the Public Market! I hope it sticks around.", "My son says top 5 restaurants ever.

[ "Ok Enza! So so glad you are here. A welcome addition to the neighborhood. Food is good, tried the meatballs, baby lettuces salad, roasted sweet potato salad oh! And the lavender infused gin and tonic is a must try.The vibe and interior are cute and I will DEFINITELY be back.", "I am rounding up from a 4.8 because although this wonderful new place is absolutely phenomenal, I do feel compelled to offer some feedback which will hopefully be taken into consideration as Enza continues to gain it's footing!\n\nFirst- the amazing. The FOOD - WOW! My husband and I have been dying to have a quality restaurant in wyndmoor and Enza has nailed it. We insisted on trying something from each category. First- the Caesar salad was a delight - extremely flavorful, fresh, and dressed well. We loved the addition of ground up croutons rather than cubes - genius! Second - the burrata and peppers, incredible! Our only complaint was that for the price, they really should offer two pieces of cheese and four pieces of that wonderful fresh garlic bread. We did end up asking for more bread, which they happily obliged. Third- the spinach and ricotta ravioli, WOW! The brown butter sage \"sauce\" was incredible. And finally - the pizza! Yum. We had the Paesan and it did not disappoint. The ingredients are light, fresh, and flavorful. Also worth noting is the atmosphere which is beautifully appointed. \n\nNow for the feedback - first of all, it's very loud. I wish they had installed acoustic tiles to absorb some of the noise. Second, the drinks really need work. Our cocktails were embarrassingly small and were nothing special. You couldn't taste any lavender in the gin cocktail and their version of a fancy margarita was...., well I couldn't even believe that for $12 I essentially had three sips of what tasted like plain margarita mix. As it stands, its just a real rip off and if they improve the cocktails it will pay off in the long run! And finally, a few odds and ends - please consider having salt and pepper on the tables. Two of our dishes definitely were under salted and rather than bugging the waitress, this would help tremendously. Also, it would be a lovely touch to either offer freshly grated Parmesan or include with any pizza/pasta/salad order. \n\nIn spite of these odds and ends.... Enza we are so happy you are here! Your food is outstanding and the setting memorable. Please know Our feedback is directed at making sure this spot sticks around, so We do hope you continue to get better and better!", "The food and atmosphere is worth a 5, the drink prices would get a 2.5. The food I had was excellent: broccoli, avocado, and sesame salad, plain pizza, and brown butter sage ricotta spinach ravioli. The food was delicious, the portions were fair, and the food prices were normal for similar items in the area. My son also had the vanilla ice cream with oatmeal cookies and it was hands down the best vanilla ice cream I have ever tasted. \n\nThe restaurant is elegant and lively: marble bar tops, oversized lighting, and brass stools. \n\n\nMy only issue was with the price of wine: $13 a glass! . There was no cheaper wine, so I went with an affordable beer instead (cocktails are pretty much $10-$12 a glass). It's hard for me to part with $13 when the same money can buy a halfway decent bottle at the state store half a mile away. I'm hoping that by providing this feedback, perhaps we can get some alternative wines that don't cost so much? \n\nOverall, thank you for a great meal. We'll be back.", "Very much enjoyed our first visit to Enza! Sean the bartender is a jack of all trades, great mixologist and conversationalist, and kept an eye standing in for the hostess greeting people, and seating them and always with a smile. This will definitely become a favorite in the neighborhood.", "We couldn't wait for Enza to open and are more than pleased with the results! Went opening weekend and knew they wouldn't have worked the kinks out just yet but what a treat. Elegant, modern, and stylish location in a new mixed use building in the heart of Wyndmoor. Large windows, white marble bar (on smallish side but inviting and intimate) open air dining room, some tables, some booths. Got pretty loud inside, nothing to absorb the sound, but it felt lively. Outdoor seating too and not just a bunch of tables and chairs set up outside but a thoughtful seating area with many planters and lighting making a comfortable and cozy setting. Got the broccoli and avocado salad, and the roasted sweet peppers w burrata to start, and then two pizzas, Margarita and The Rosso (tomato, garlic, and oregano), thin crispy crust and fresh toppings. Don't expect a super large menu but fairly simple and done right. Cocktails are inventive, a bit on the smaller side, wine menu is pretty good as you'll certainly find something you'll like but prices on the higher side, and decent beer selection. That night the service was choppy but expected, and all servers and staff were super friendly though. Overall, we'll definitely be back.", "Totally disappointed. \nHoping for a pizza joint that separates itself from all the other local pizza shops. \nNope. \nPizza is ok but nothing special. \nMaybe one click better than cosimos. Maybe.\nGood wine though, so an extra star for that.", "Ehh - nothing special. Just an overpriced pizza place. \n\nGo to Pizza City next door and support a business that has been local and loyal to Wyndmoor and is delicious.\n\nIf you want beer or wine with your pizza, try Chestnut Hill Brewery - just 5 mins away and great beer and pizza. They just started offering salads too and they are the best.", "Update: We went again this past weekend. The food was equally delicious and even better, wine prices have changed: $6.50 for a 3 oz pour or $13 for a 6 oz. pour :)", "Food we tried was excellent! Loved the meatballs and the Avocado with roasted Broccoli salad! Delicious! Lovely atmosphere, very relaxing. Wyndmoor needed a spot like that! We'll definitely be back!", "They just opened and they have late hours. That works for me. I stopped and had a small pizza. It was a bit larger than the usual small. $11.60 I think I paid. The crust was crunchy but not too crunchy. There was a good amount of cheese on it and the flavor was fantastic. It was a really good pizza. Very much like the ones I have had in Rome. I look forward to having an entree but haven't had time to go back yet. They have an outdoor breezeway that is just adorable too." ]

Charming waiter who tried to answer our questions. Menu was extensive but they have been open only a week so had only a few of the dishes. We had baba ghanoush, warm pita, and a cucumber/ tomato onion/ fried pita appetizer that was fabulous! Fattah I think. \nOrdered three entrees to share Bechamel, very tasty similar to a pastitio (pasta, ground beef bechamel touch of cinnamon). A lamb shank in a white sauce with rice toasted almonds on top (everyone's favorite) and a vegetarian dish that is very traditionally Egyptian, with spaghetti, lentils, chick peas and carmelized onions with two different sauces (tomato and lemon oil). They brought us a complementary dessert ( no baklava yet!) which was a honey cake with a corn meal base and a pistachio on top. Very enjoyable dining experience. I know we will go back and I predict it will get more crowded as people find out about it! Sorry for not remembering the names of the dishes!", "Tried this out a few days ago for lunch. They were still doing the soft opening, so it was a limited menu. We started with the house made hummus w/pita, it was creamy and delicious. I had the Fatta, the lamb was very tender, while the rustic tomato sauce on the rice and pita was a perfect compliment. My wife had the stuffed zucchini and eggplant dish, which was surprisingly good. The rice was spicy, and the vegetables had been cooked to the perfect texture. No room for dessert, maybe next time.", "Granted it's only been open a week, but these guys definitely do not have their act together. Walked in , no one greeted us. Rang bells and door buzzer to no avail. I could see people in the kitchen. But no one would come out. Waited a good 5 minutes and left.", "Excellent food, great decor! The kebabs were outstanding!!! We were just driving through and decided to give it a try. We will definitely stop there on our next drive through Tucson!", "I was pleased with the excellent service we received. I was curious to try fresh hummus, not the store bought kind, what a big difference! The waiter was helpful with food recommendations. The only thing I can remember is a broth that is poured over rice called \"gemmed\" that tastes heavenly... (Sorry, I am sure I spelled it wrong).. I will definitely be back!", "Who'd have thought one would go to a city famous for its Mexican food and wind up eating at a new African/Arabic restaurant? My dinner companion ordered the pharaoh shawarma, and the staff accommodated her eating style with an almond studded melange of cabbage green pepper, onions, rather than bread or rice. I had the Hawashi a meat stuffed bread with pickles and house preserved lemons. Both were superbly seasoned and spiced. Service is attentive. This is a soft open so our dishes came put as they were ready, not at the same time but well worth the wait.", "Great place, my friends and I ordered as a group 5 different dishes.\nKushari , kabab, Mulukhia, Hummus, Falafel, Hawawshi all delicious and the best part the house bread! That's the food!\nThe service is great, I felt like I am in my friend's house very welcoming!\nFor sure will be coming back with another group of friends!", "***This place is going through a soft opening***\nRecently saw the Mummy, and then this place shows up on Yelp?? Alright, never had Egyptian food before, and I'll try anything once. (I managed to snap their whole menu)\n\n+++ Sheesh Tawook chicken kebab. The chicken was obviously never caged and super tender. There is an abundance of bell peppers and onions, and they were grilled perfectly. \n\n+++ Hawawshi. Not only is this fun to say, it is like a pita sandwich stuff with whatever meat was in there. I have no clue what was in there, but it was AMAZING. \n\n+++ environment. The setting has a light hue of blue. There are hieroglyphics in the entrance and there is so much detail that it adds authenticity to it....PLUS...they play regional music. They played Syrian music while we were there, and that also adds authenticity, which really scores points with me. \n\n+++ garlic dip. I went with the spicy, cause I have already built scar tissue amongst my guts in recent days...and the pita slices are warm and very tasty. I managed to dip my sandwich in the garlic dip...not only did I dip...I dipped and swiped. \n\n+++ cucumbers & yogurt. Its chopped up pieces of cucumber in a watery, yet thickish, yogurt. It is such an odd combination, but it was so damn good!!!\n\nWhat an unreal place that I went to tonight. I seriously never thought I would ever try, or even have the option of, Egyptian food. Get down here and there is no need to thank me.", "I enjoyed a delicious lunch today @this Egyptian/Arabic recently opened restaurant on Stone, between Speedway & Grant on the west side of the street. Joel was my polite & efficient waiter & Carlos, the general mgr, introduced himself to me & we had an amicable chat. I took away 1 star only 'cause they only offered a limited menu, w/no lamb, fish or seafood. For a reasonable $12 I had beef in a stew- like bowl, pita wedges & tasty Egyptian rice. I also tried the 2 desserts that were available and some freshly brewed Turkish coffee. Soon they'll be offering a middle-eastern b'fast, which intrigues me. This is a welcome addition to ever growing eclectic food scene here in Tucson." ]

We said no we are just here for lunch. It turns out that the restaurant was closed and that only friends and family members were invited to give the staff a dry run to get some experience. As we began to exit the manager jumped in and told the hostess to bring us in anyway. After we were seated our server explained that they were using an abbreviated menu and there was no cost. She encouraged us to choose appetizers and entries for our bags. The basic serving is a bag that contains your choices of seafood, sauces and seasonings as well as corn and potatoes. \nWe expected typical chain fare. Boy were we surprised. The calimari was fried crisp but stayed tender without a hint of rubbery texture. It rivals the best we've ever had. For our bags we chose snow crab, shrimp, mussels and scallops. Each item was excellent. Way outshining expectations. We also tried the chicken strips. They were not very crispy and a bit soft. \nOverall it was a very impressive display of how to put out tasty and well prepared seafood and will surely find a good audience here. There portions are large so order with an eye toward sharing.", "Soft open. Interior is casual and inviting. Trying a couple of their plate dinners tonight. Appetizer of fried calamari. Generous portion served with a loose tarter sauce sauce. Time for food out of the kitchen was a little slow--but this is to be expected during a soft opening as staff gets used to menu and preparation. I had the fried oyster basket with sweet potato fries, my wife had fried shrimp basket with Cajun seasoned fries. Nothing too adventurous this time, but should give a decent quality test as calamari and oysters are easy to mess up. Once the food arrived, it was enjoyed. Oysters and shrimp done well. Fries were abundant, verging on too large a portion for the entree received . Along the way, a complimentary basket af shrimp chips was recurved. Helped pass the time while waiting for the kitchen. Looked around as other customers revived their orders--the seafood boils look great. Looking forward to trying one. We'll try this again. 3.5 stars", "The only bad thing is the bar is not open yet. I cannot say enough good things about this place! I highly recommend it it's very authentic. My friend cooks a lot of Cajun and even he said this is not your typical Midwest Cajun but is the real thing. \n\nI ordered the mussels and calamari", "We came for the soft open. We were seated immediately and our Raider came by to see us within 5 minutes. He took our orders and our order was out to us in less than 15 minutes from the time that we entered. My wife ordered the blue crab head-on shrimp and lobster and enjoyed it very much. It was well seasoned and brought in a large bag that they Shake in front of you so you can see them making sure the seasoning gets everywhere. I ordered the coconut shrimp appetizer and fried shrimp basket with sweet potato fries. The Shrimp Basket wasn't anything special but also wasn't bad. My only complaint would be, that my food came out lukewarm, and was cold in 10 minutes. All in all we would probably still come back, after they have officially opened.", "Food was just ok, nothing to brag about especially for the cost. We could have went to many other seafood restaurants and spent less on much better food. Also took 29 minutes to get a shrimp po boy sandwich. Very doubtful on our returning which is a shame as we were looking very forward to them opening.", "I love this place! The picture says it all. I order the shrimp without the hat on and the crawfish and I've been here twice now and both times excellent", "OMG! This place is awesome. I love seafood and while visiting St Louis; I stumbled across this place. Amazing sea food in the mid west? Yep! And damn that garlic-butter sauce is some amazing stuff. The staff was great and the restaurant was inviting and fun!", "Was really excited to go to this place. The seafood tasted good and fresh but it was soaked in a ton of garlic and butter it was way too much. The fried catfish was so overdone that the fish was almost nonexistent. Staff was excellent and very friendly. Might try again", "Food came out luke warm and over cooked. Corn and crab legs over cooked. No meat inside of crab legs and the manager agreed it should not have been this way. The manager seemed confused about what to do or how to handle it. I asked to have the order recooked and received the same quality of food. I was really excited to have a seafood restaurant close to home and they disappointed big time. I won't be returning!!!!!!!!! After returning food they still brought me a check!! Guess I'll be going next door Steak N Shake!", "Awesome portion, awesome food and service. Jocelyn was great keeping up with or needs.

The other 2 entrees were a good 10 minutes later with an apology from the server but no offer to make it right with a drink or something. The fish and chips were good but some of the fries were pretty soggy. Friends salmon was way over cooked and the quinoa mushy with undercooked carrots. The server was fine but didn't really seem empowered to do anything to make things right. Oddly enough the owner (or Gm maybe...not sure) was walking around checking in with many tables but never stopped at our table...not sure if he didn't want to hear about some problems or just happen to skip past us.

I'm so glad that I did.\n\nThis new restaurant has only been open less than a week. It's Columbian-Dominican, but they have items that are Puerto Rican as well. It's in the same plaza as Taste of Berlin and Allegria Italiana. They are still in the preliminary stage of testing out menu items, and will be making adjustments to their current menu. So far, I've been happy with everything I've ordered.\n\nI've been there twice this week. The first time, I had a take out order of Sancocho de Costillas de Res (special of the day) and the pan seared sirloin in wine sauce. Both were very generous portions that included 2 or 3 side dishes. The platanos maduros are cut lengthwise and fried perfectly. They were super ripe and sweet. I think these are the best maduros ever. Seriously. I'm still thinking about them today. You also get a heaping portion of rice with red beans. Also, a great choice. It comes with a salad as well. The Sancocho comes with a potato salad that my mother saved for the next day. It was a lot of food. We even split the sirloin which was pretty massive. But that's not all. We decided to go back because I saw so many other things on the menu (like Mofongo & Skirt Steak). My intention was to try the Mofongo, but the grilled skirt steak was calling my name. Oh wow, this was another huge portion. You'll just have to see the picture. It was served with a different variation of a chimichurri sauce. It was more of a parsley & oregano taste, than a garlic taste. It was very good. I was also happy that the steak wasn't overly seasoned and salty. The sauce brought out the natural flavor of the meat.\n\nMy mother had the Fried Red Snapper. It was the whole fish. Again, not a whole lot of seasoning but the flavor was all there. She was super happy. She hasn't had one since her last visit to Puerto Rico. She ate just about everything. Oh, and I can't forget to mention the empanadas. The outer part is made with masarepa. It was so fresh and delicious. It reminded me of sorullitos, but filled with shredded beef instead of cheese. It's also served with a green ají sauce.\n\nIf I had to say anything negative, it would be that service was a little slow. I was expecting that since it's a new restaurant, and the fact that all of these items are made to order. I don't mind the wait if the food is good, and it certainly was very good. The staff and owner were wonderful. We will definitely go back to try more menu items, and to get more of that deliciously bold coffee that was a perfect end to our meal.", "This is a wonderful family owned restaurant with a tremendous potential. They have an extensive menu, a really nice assortment of beverages, I really recommend the frozen cherry lemonade, a warm cozy atmosphere and a staff, very eager to please. I spoke with the chef at length and this is his first venture into private ownership. Being this was their 10th day, they have already discovered the pains of owning a restaurant. I only hope that the community gives them the patience and latitude to find their stride. My biggest concern with this restaurant is the clients that have already eaten there. The chef is already afraid to take chances because of pre-expectations of the guests. Instead of allowing him to make bold and exciting choices, instead of giving him the benefit of the doubt and allow him to experiment or God forbid, do something non-traditional, the community has already pushed the establishment toward mediocrity. The real joy of a good community restaurant is the way a chef can take something treasured and turn it into something new and exciting.\n\nWhile living in Germany, I ran into this time and time again. I fully understand that a meal is more than the food on a plate. It is memories, tradition, events and people you shared these meals both present and future. The problem here is when the traditional food lacks flavor, lacks pizazz, lacks creativity because the clients are held hostage to the past, it alienates and pushes away others from joining the meal. This was the case with my meal today. I spoke at length about his choices and was very saddened to find out that while he would love to bring these dishes into the present American pallet forte the current clients in the community would have none of it. They would reject it as blasphemy. To those folks I will say this. Your traditional food is boring and bland. It lacks flavor, creativity, it is as routine as a root canal. You need to understand that in this modern world, things change. The beauty of living in the US is the ability to modify and pay tribute to the past without being held hostage to it. What I would have loved to see is a plate with creativity, better presentation and most of all FLAVORS!\n\nIf you want traditional food that your mom made while living in the cities of Columbia, then grab a flight and head back there. Bon Appetite! If you are not just expecting but demanding this same level of food here then by your handcuffing a chef into serving something that only works in your mind is unfair to both the family that is trying to bring something new to your new community, but, the community as a whole. You moved to America for opportunities. Give this chef and his family the opportunity to take your food, put his twist on it and create something you can treasure because now you have something completely unique to not just your town, but, the world in general. If you just can't move forward and allow him the trust and confidence he has earned by investing in his own business to spread his wings and shine, then I hope you hire him as YOUR personal chef because, his job is to create new memories not live in the past!\n\nI wish him and his family the courage to break molds and set new culinary trails! If I come back this way and he has taken my advice and created something unique and exciting, I will gladly give him 5 stars!", "If you're looking for authentic, delicious, laidback lunch/dinner experience look no further! They have an amazing selection on their menu! Don't get me started on the food! I LOVED EVERY BITE OF MY DINNER along with the portion size! Love not having to pack a lunch for the next day of work! We will be regulars without a doubt! TRY IT ONCE AND YOUL WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT IM SAYING! So glad this was added to the community!", "We took my Colombian mother in law for lunch at a new restaurant called Aleida's Kitchen. I chanced upon it when looking for a flower shop yesterday. It serves Colombian-Dominican cuisine and we all agreed the food was excellent. The empanada's we had as an appetizer were delicious as were each of our main courses. Mother-in-law had a pork loin, my wife had a shrimp casserole and I had beef stew, which tasted great. The service was bi-lingual and prompt, and everything was obviously cooked to order and served as soon as it was ready. Delicious.", "Oh my goodness, AMAZING!! I had Arroz con pollo, delicious!!!! Co-worker had Colombian, it was awesome. Another co-worker had the beef stew...OMG!!! These dishes were complete happiness!!! Come check this food out and the server was awesome!!!", "Muy rico y excelente servicio. Comimos carne guisada y carne asada un sabor súper! La atención súper buena. Aprobado!", "Excellent service from the time I walked in to check out. Food is home made and very tasty. I recommend it, if you like delicious Latin food. \nI had the sancocho special and I had flashbacks to grandmother's cooking. Did I mention the server was perfect? \nAdding this place to my rotation.", "Came here with my daughter and everything was amazing. Favorite part was the empanadas, white sangria and my entree. The bandeja paisa, this is my new favorite local spot and I cannot wait to come back. A must try place for sure. You will not be disappointed and the set up is beautiful.", "Great food and friendly staff. We are familiar with the menu so they took time to explain and recommended dishes! Check them out!!", "Tonight was my first visit, I came across Aleida's on Yelp. We had seafood rice and chicken and rice. Not very adventurous I know. It tasted just as you would expect. The salad dressing had a nice tang to it. Sweet plantains were deliciously cooked. Probably the best I have had in a long time. Nice and ripe. \nSo glad I have found a new place. Simple, tasty, comfort food." ]
