[ "I used to think Cin Cin was the only place for Chinese takeout but then I started going to King's. If you want traditional Chinese then this is your place. Fresh and tasty concoctions is what this place is all about!", "What a great surprise! We offhandedly grabbed a menu in the afternoon and ended up ordering delivery on Friday night. Definitely the best random Chinese delivery I've had. The wonton soup tasted delicious and was definitely homemade. I also highly recommend the spicy green beans and the shrimp with black bean sauce. The green beans were well spiced with large slices of garlic, and the shrimp were plump and interspersed with peppers and mushrooms. We had some lo mein to round out the meal which was good but we were too full to eat much!\n\nIt took around an hour for delivery (note it WAS a friday night...) but the whole meal was totally worth it. Definitely a new stand-by for Chinese delivery/take-out!", "Very good food. I get the Moo-shoo something everytime I go and it's always a treat. They are also heavy handed with their drinks so the pina colada (though and odd choice of drink with chinese food) will make for a more enjoyable evening.\n\nThere is a fish dish that you have to call ahead to order or wait a long time--which seems weird to me, but I wouldn't get it anyway.", "I've been sidelined on my sofa since the weekend and all I wanted on this cold day was for someone to bring me some food. Visions of soup have been dancing in my head (it could be the hallucinations from a 102 degree fever, but whatev) and you know how it is...when you get a craving for something, it can become all-consuming. Since I'm all whacked out on Theraflu (and still in my jammies), getting behind the wheel of a car probably isn't the wisest decision I could make, so instead of taking my life and the lives of others in my hands, I picked up the phone and called King's Garden for a little lunchtime delivery.\n\nI was so happy to know that someone would soon be on their way with soup made with TLC that I almost said \"I love you,\" after I gave them my address. That would have been weird, but I gladly would have laid my heart on the line for the service. Before I could finish my 900th glass of OJ for the day, my order arrived - in less than 20 minutes! I was feeling better already.\n\nMy kids and I enjoyed the wonton soup (it worked wonders for my scratchy throat) and shrimp lo mein, and they loved the moo shoo pork. I wasn't feeling it for the eggrolls, but maybe my tastebuds are on strike because they haven't been getting much variety this week. I'd give this place another chance for sure.\n\nIt wasn't the best Chinese food I've ever had, but they came to my rescue when I needed them most. So for that, I'll get down on one shaky knee and ask: King's Garden...will you be my valentine?", "Much better than your standard chinese food. Wide variety on the menu and large portions. You know how a chinese restaurant has either the good (thick noodle, spiced dumpling) wonton, or the bland mediocre (paper thin noodle, iffy dumpling) wonton? Yeah, they've got the good kind. And its great for a cold evening. Anything with black bean sauce is great, and the szechwan spicy green beans are a must. \n\nI've only had take-out and delivery from here, but both are reliable.", "King's Garden is the closest to my favorite Chinese place that I grew up with (which doesn't exist anymore in emmaus,pa)\n\nBut anyway, I'm a picky Chinese food person and the cooks always make my food just right and yummy.", "Did you know there are more Chinese restaurants in American than there are McDonald's, Burger Kings, Wendy's, Taco Bells....etc. True Story.\n\nBeing that Mt Airy is not in short supply of chinese food, you wonder how one place could stand out. King's Garden manages to do it and do it well! There are staples at every Chinese Restaurant like sesame chicken and dumplings that you know are good, but at King's, they must sprinkle it with drugs because the standards are raised to new tasty heights. I am sure it isn't drugs...but you know what I mean. \n\nMy bf likes to go to the restaurant and order take out because they have a tiny bar inside where he partakes in brews while he waits for his food. Staff is great and I think its adorable inside.\n\nI have to say, this is probably my second favorite chinese restaurant. Again, with all the options out there, that means a lot.", "Wow, we hadn't eaten all day. We had 11 people in our party and they had absolutely no problem seating us at 7:30 on a Saturday. \nTheir food was absolutely worth driving the 30 minutes from west of Norristown. \nOur service was very quick and polite, the waitress was extremely knowledgeable about the menu, even knowing the number that the meal was (ie 42 = Jumbo Shrimp and Scallops with vegetables in a garlic sauce)\nThey have a bar there and you can get drinks at your table. \nThe portions are large too, enough to split between two people and still have room for ice cream from down the street.\nOverall a very delicious experience at King's Garden.\n\nThey are open till 10 on most nights I think.", "This place was so clean! Staff was friendly and attentive, and obviously take pride in what they do. Me and my sweetie stopped there last Saturday on a whim, and for $33 total (25% tip included) we were happy and full! Try it, you definitely won't be disappointed.", "I love Kings Garden! Their food is really good and the service is fast. The Yin Yeng Chicken is excellent... I can't wait to go back!" ]

[ "It kills me how many ways there are in St. Louis to eat 'pizza' without satisfying your craving for 'pizza', like greasy, sloppy, delivered, Papa John's style. \n\nThank God for that.\n\nI found The Good Pie by accident, just checking it out because it is near my house. \n\nWe were instantly greeted by friendly staff, who sat us comfortably and introduced us to the bartender, who in turn introduced us to their beer on tap (not many, but well-chosen) and wine list. \n\nWe had a meat and cheese plate, which was amazing. Don't let the Italian menu or the fact that you may have never heard of some of these cheeses before intimidate you. All of it was amazing, presented by someone who obviously took pride in the plate that he just created. \n\nMy pizza, served Neapolitan-style ('cause that's what they do here), had three things on it: olive oil, pancetta, and basil. That's it. It was one of the best pizzas I've had...one of the best meals that I've had. Dessert was great, too.\n\nThis is one of those places where everyone who works there is passionate about what they do. The decor is cozy, typical loft/brick/wood, with fun touches. I almost don't want too many people to know about this place, it's so good. I have a feeling that, once the secret's out, there will be lines out the door.", "Truly excellent Neopolitan-style pizza (very thin crust, cooked very quickly in a very, VERY hot stone oven). Possibly my favorite pizza in St. Louis. Excellent, flavorful toppings; nice little wine list; fantastic cheese. Service is friendly and the pizza comes fast. If you haven't been, you are missing out.", "We decided to check out The Good Pie after our friend from Italy gave it high praise. The place is located Downtown on Olive and the area there is really developing so it's a great spot.\n\nThe inside is very welcoming and casual....lots of brick and wood and decorated with vintage bicycles. This is not a large place but there were plenty of tables and even a nice patio outside where we noticed that they were growing fresh vegetables and herbs.\n\nOur waitress seemed a little new but was very nice. We ordered 2 pizzas and a starter of an olive sampler (yum!!)\nThe pizzas were The Good Pie and the Mushroom. The crust is made there in their oven and is thin but soft and airy. \nThe Good Pie was our favorite since we LOVE the sauce....and the mushrooms were heaven on the other one but there wasn't any sauce, only cheese....so maybe next time we'll combine them if that's allowed.\n\nEverything was wonderful and we'll definitely be back! I'll post photos later tonight.", "If you're not adventurous when it comes to food, then this is not the place to go. They have an interesting variety of appetizers, salads and pizza toppings. It's a small restaurant/bar, but has a great atmosphere.", "The Good Pie is one the best, if not the best pizza place in St. Louis. It brings me right back to Milan every visit.", "Good pizza, good beer with some micro-brewery selections. Meat and cheese plate was great too. We had \"The Good Pie\" pizza, which was delicious. It's not your typical pizza dripping in cheese, instead it's slices of Mozarella, a great sauce, on some awesome bread. So it's slightly different, but very good and fresh.", "When we visited The Good Pie, we were expecting good pizza baked in a stone oven. What we got was mediocre pizza burnt in a stone oven. \n\nA group of three of us went on a Saturday night around 5:30. Everyone in said group has dramatically different tastes, so we knew that perhaps one or two people might like the place and the other/s would either be \"meh\" or hate it. It turned out we all had something in common that night- a bad experience involving pizza.\n\nThe Good Pie had a fantastic ambiance and the waitress was attentive and pleasant. The menu looked enticing: basil and cherry tomatoes with buffalo mozzarella on a pizza baked in a stone oven- huzzah!\n\nBut when the food got to the table, we all looked at each other as if to say, \"Really?\" The crust was burnt in several places, and while a stone/ brick oven adds \"character\" to a pizza, is there really any reason there should be blatant scorch marks and undercooked areas?\n\nAnd when the menu said the pizza had basil and cherry tomatoes on it, why were there only three leaves of basil on it and just as many cherry tomatoes? \n\nI realize that this is authentic pizza, the way it's made in Italy, but still, three basil leaves and cherry tomatoes, on soggy oven-scorched crust? The sauce was decent, but by no means memorable. If the goal was to serve understated food, The Good Pie has hit its mark. But good understated food it was not. And getting hit with a thirty dollar check for two pizzas that were, at the end, disintegrating into mush, was too much for all of us. \n\nNever have we ever agreed on a meal, but unfortunately we were unanimous in our disappointment.", "Mixed review. I enjoyed the food but we waited over an hour for it. Upside: I liked my pizza, they have a garden (huge plus), yummy arugula salad. The service: Service not so good: one of our orders orders was mixed up (no biggie) but then when the waitress was cleaning the table she dropped all the plates on one of the people in our group. She apologized but that was it, no offer to pay for the cleaning of her clothes, no discount on her lunch, just sorry. It wasn't just a little spot, we are talking all over her shirt and pants. :(", "The Good Pie, simply put, is a natural beauty.\n\nThere's nothing pretentious nor over-the-top about this wonderful little slice of Italia. TGP's main draw is it's wood-over pizza, made with simple ingredients. However, when you go, try the salads too. My favorite is the Arugula Salad.\n\nI am becoming a regular at this local eatery...and I am delighted.\n\n(Bottom-line, The Good Pie is the best pizza in town!)", "My husband and I wanted to try this place out because it's right across from our favorite St. Louis BBQ joint (Pappy's) and we've heard good things. \n\nIt was a Thursday around 7 and there was only one other couple in the restaurant. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, though it was frigid inside! We asked to be seated outside if they had that option, we did, and we had a wonderful private meal on a beautiful night. After being seated outside we also noticed the tubs and pots filled with herbs and veggies. I LOVE when restaurants grow their own ingredients!\n\nI also noticed their menu stated their hours loosely. \"11am to close\" So.....I had to ask. Apparently they just close when there aren't any customers anymore, so if you're interested in trying this place out, don't wait too long on any given evening!\n\nThe pizza was thin, pretty geniuine Italian from what I've been told. Very tasty, but one pizza for 2 people without anything else probably wouldn't cut it. We ordered some bread to start and we finished everything, but left very satisfied. The food was good, but I'm not raving about it. \n\nNot too pricey, and the service is good. The pizzas only take a few minutes in the oven, so if you're lucky, you'll only have to wait about 10 minutes for your food! \n\nA tasty find in mid-town and if definitely worth a trip. I'm sure we'll be going back again. It seems like a fun place to take a group, so hopefully we'll be able to spread the word." ]

[ "Ended up here by accident on Christmas Eve since Benihana was booked, and I'm glad we found this little gem. Hibachi show was great and engaging with audience participation. Food and drinks were good, and reasonably priced for a Hibachi place. From now on this will be our Christmas Eve go to.", "Service was good. We sat in the sushi/non-hibachi area, they have some nice HDTVs to watch the night game. As for the food, I'd say it was good overall. I ordered 3 sushi rolls which tasted very fresh. I'd recommend the Mexican roll if you're into spicy tuna. Appetizers were also okay, although I won't be ordering the shumai again. The yakitori was good, big chunks of white meat but a little light on sauce.\n\nOverall, not a bad choice if you're feeling for sushi.", "The first time was really good, we enjoyed our food and service. The second time was not that good. The food was so so the service was good though but you can't eat your server hahaha well not at the restaurant. But we really did not enjoy the food and the were 4 of us in agreement all with different dishes 2 of us had sushi and 1 salmon platter, 1 steak. Big disappointment as 2 people were there for their 1st time. We all agreed not to return since there are plenty of choices in the area. We will wait for some reviews to tell us different.", "never coming back again! We sat in the hibachi area. Our waitress was horrible! She messed up too many time with our drinks/suchi orders. The only good thing in this place was the \"yum-yum\" sauce. Food tasted like soysauce and butter. Don't waste ur money in this place.", "I've been wanting to try this restaurant since they opened last November but never had the time to until now. I'm sorry I waited so long. We sat at the sushi bar and everything we tried was fantastic. The sushi chef was really friendly as well as our server. We also tried a couple hibachi items, shrimp & scallops for me and shrimp & lobster for my girlfriend. Both dishes were good but we'll definitely be coming back for the sushi.", "We tried other Japanese hibachi style restaurants before, but nothing came as close to being \"perfect\" than this one. Mind you, we live in Huntingdon Valley, PA which is about 50 miles from this restaurant and we have been to this restaurant for 5 times already since they opened in late 11/2012. We'd go more often if it is closer to our house.\n\nFood is excellent and the staff is very courteous with services. Gotta try the \"sushi on a \"flaming\" torch... Wow!! They bring the sushi on a plate (wrapped in aluminum foil) on fire, demonstrating a really impressive presentation. Perfect for a couple on a date. 'wink, wink' \n\nAmple parking space as well as really upscale decor thru-out. If you want to go, go during the weekday evening for little more quiet ambiance as Saturdays are little more noisier from the weekend crowd. Reserve your weekend trip there for friends and family for more lively audience and crowd, if you are into those sort of events...", "We love sushi! Eat it often and know the good from the bad. Sakura's sushi is always very fresh, the rolls are inventive and delicious, and Andrew always has good suggestions for new stuff to try. Tonight was \"horse mackerel\". Complete with head, which our daughter found fascinating. :-)\n\nWe always sit at the bar and the service had been great. \n\nDefinitely try the \"under the sea roll\" for great taste and presentation.", "I recently went to Sakura since it's near my house and it was ok, not great and a little pricey.\n\nSushi/Sahimi 4 stars so if that's what you like, it's a good, fresh choice. I had some vegetarian rolls and soup which were good, not great. I wanted several other items on the menu but they were not available (pork sliders, avocado salad)\n\nThe Bad - heavy grease smell throughout from the hibachi side. Overall, it is a Chinese interpretation of what Japanese food might be so for me it was not that great an experience. For $70, I could have had a better experience and more food elsewhere.", "Over priced and mediocre sushi. Beware what you order. Ordered a Sicklerville roll and got a roll that was not listed on description. They tried to pass it as the roll and it was not what I ordered on the menu that was in my hand. No compensation was given while i had to wait for another roll to be made I had to watch while others at my table ate their meal. Agree with the other reviewer head down the street to S&P much better food!", "I have been to this place two times and it was okay. For a local spot, it's pretty decent...the drinks are questionable...but try the organic sockie." ]

[ "Cafe Provencal is one of the best restaurants I've been to in a long time. A few years ago, I was lucky enough to travel the Provence area of France for two weeks, and truly miss it. Cafe Provence invokes memories of my travels, as the food is fantastic and is true to the wonderful food I had while in France. My only wish is that they would add 'moules et frites' to the menu. \n\nThe staff is wonderfully friendly and the surroundings are fine. The food is delicious, and from the smells coming from the other tables, it doesn't matter what you order as it will all be good. I ordered the porc grille [pork loin], and my husband got the strip steak. Both were savory and fantastic.", "For the price, the decent food and mediocre service makes me look elsewhere.\n\nThe fiance and I were in the mood for a light meal and just wanted to share an appetizer and an entree. The 6 buck splitting fee is something, though not uncommon in other cities, is something that struck me as a surprise for the St. Louis area.\n\nI wonder if our light meal affected the service that we got. We sat around with some empty glasses and wondering when the waiter would step out anytime soon. \n\nThe food was pretty good. We had the pate and a braised beef. *shrug.*", "Fantistic meal, entertaining bartender, knowledgeable and friendly service. A high point was the wine list with reasonable prices that allowed us to enjoy high quality wine to further enhance a great experience. This is a gem in the St. Louis area foodscape, and I highly recommend it for a nice evening with friends.", "My husband and I had dinner here with friends on a lovely May Friday evening, enjoying the outdoor dining. This was my first trip and I was very impressed. Food was well prepared, well seasoned, service was attentive and it always helps when your waiter has a sense of humor. If the weather is nice, try to get an outdoor table; it was quite nice on this breezy evening.\n\nWe started with a bottle of wine for the table. I was impressed that their wine prices were so reasonable; as opposed to many fine dining establishments who mark up wine three times the price and up, here markups were a conservative 1.5 to two fold, which is pretty good, especially for a higher end restaurant in my opinion. The Cote du Rhone is very good.\n\nOne of the absolute highlights of the meal was the fresh baked crusty salt topped warm bread. I am a carboholic, and this was absolute bread porn. I ate way too much of this but it was so worth it.\n\nI got the celery root salad to start which was unusual and tasty with a bit of a mustardy zip to the dressing; I mopped up the dressing with, you guessed it, more bread. My husband really enjoyed his onion tart (which was very generously sized). I ordered the steak and frites; I had a very disappointing version at another establishment the Sunday prior and was eager to erase that memory from my taste buds and more. This dish did that and more: wonderful crispy super thin fries that were hot and perfectly seasoned (I think I detected a hint of rosemary), a perfectly cooked medium rare steak and wonderful artery clogging sauce..oh I mean bernaise sauce. There were nice haricot verts on the side that I ate so I could pat myself on the head for eating something green and healthy. My husband enjoyed the 2 bone pork chop; that was a gorgeous hugely thick chop, cooked nicely with a nice blueberry sauce that was not cloyingly sweet but tied the dish together well. We were both very pleased with the entrees.\n\nFor dessert, I got the apple almond tart. All of my 3 dining companions got the chocolate tart. I sampled the tart, and they made a very good choice; it simply melted in your mouth, and was some of the smoothest, most flavorful chocolate I have ever had. That having been said, the apple almond tart was also delicious---not overly sweet with a nice combination of textures and great crust. \n\nFor the quality of the meal, I thought it was more than reasonable. There is a $30 prix fixe for 3 courses (choose from any options on the menu of soup/salads, entrees, or dessert/cheese plate, some have an additional surcharge such as the steak and frites, which was an additional $4 and the cheese plate) and $34 for four courses. I was stuffed and had food to enjoy the next day as well. Their fries reheat remarkably well in the oven.\n\nAll in all, a great meal. We can't wait to go back; it's a splurge but worth it.", "It's a very simple menu. However, the food is good. The ambiance is cute and comfortable... \n\nIt's a great place for an extended lunch hour so you can sit and enjoy the rich food. We had the fries and reuben sandwhich. Yum... worth trying!", "Had a very lovely first experience at Cafe Provencal. We had an early dinner (5:30) on a Thursday night, and the place didn't start filling up until we got dessert. The ambience was very cozy and warm, but still chic. Provencal chic, if that's even a thing.\n\nWe started with the Trio de Provence, which consisted of a very unique eggplant caviar (basically a little eggplant spread... not actually caviar), a salty yet flavorful olive tapenade, a WONDERFUL tomato coulis with capers, and some AWESOME Montrachet cheese. This was all accompanied with bread and crackers. It was a very nice start to our meal! \n\nFor the main course, my mom had the salmon, which came with a whole-grain mustard sauce. My mom repeatedly described it as \"wonderful\" (I had a bite and agreed). Both her entree and mine were accompanied by the creamiest mashed potatoes I've ever had (which I count as a good thing!). I had the rack of lamb, which was very tasty. It worked wonderfully with the red wine-black peppercorn reduction that came with it; it was very bold, yet not overpowering. NOTE: If you get the lamb and a glass of wine, make sure the wine you chose is full-bodied enough to hold up to the peppercorn flavor. I had a sip of my mom's pinot noir and could barely taste it. I really enjoyed the lamb, though - it was cooked wonderfully. \n\nTo finish, we shared the creme brulee. It wasn't the best creme brulee I'd ever had, but it still held its own and was highly enjoyable! A cluster of super-fresh berries sat on top. You have to respect a restaurant that serves July-fresh berries in February.\n\nOverall, a very lovely experience at Cafe Provencal. I will definitely go back! The service was attentive and helpful, and we had no complaints.", "After hearing all these great things about Cafe Provencal, I was not blown away like I was expecting. The restaurant was def full and ppl kept coming in and out all night (Saturday), so be sure to have a reservation. We opted to dine on the large \"patio\" in front of the restaurant - it's a nice space and you aren't crowded by other tables. However, if you're not into live music, opt to sit indoors as the wine bar in the same complex (Branica Wine Bar) plays live music on wkds. \n\nFood:\n1) Salade César - delicious. I love when restaurants don't drown their ceasar salad in dressing.\n2) Soupe a l'oignon gratinée - great onion soup! One of the best we've had in StL.\n3) Steak Frites - disappointing. 3 ppl ordered this, and all 3 were overdone. The frites would've been better if they were a little bigger (matchstick-style) - I just felt like eating sticks bc I couldn't taste any potato.\n4) Tarte aux pommes - the apple tart was OK. Not anything any of us were raving about.\n\nWhile the service was great and very attentive, I was disappointed when I realized that upon leaving, they did not bring us our \"doggie bag\" (no steak for the dogs that evening!). At this pt, I'm indecisive if this place warrants another visit, although all the buzz in my ear about how good it is makes me wonder.\n\nOn a side note, the menu offers a 3-course and 4-course pricing (certain items require a supplement).", "I teeter between 3 and 3.5ish stars.\nThe escargot is really very good and priced reasonably! \n\n\"L'Escargots 7- \nsix naughty little snails swimming naked in a pool of fennel, garlic butter\"\nI love the description. hehe. \n I have been here a few times but never reviewed it because it was before my Yelp days. :)\n\nThe food is decent but nothing you will adore and rave about (with the exception of those naughty snails ;) .) The menu is not very big but they try to give a selection worth trying.\n\nI love the decor, inside and out. Really nice dining experience in decor and atmosphere alone... GREAT atmosphere! (i.e... Lighting, decor, the people there, the service, volume level, etc..)\nThey have a little patio but this is in a strip mall so keep that in mind.\nWe had good service.\nThe chocolate dessert is wonderful!\nThe main meal was ok. I had the grilled tuna and salad. The Grilled tuna was ok and the salad part was very good. I would just go for the escargot as I love that there! \nIt is worth trying.\n\nShort short verision: \nDrink some wine, eat the Escargot, and get the chocolate pudding like dessert that I don't remember the name of .. sigh.. VERY good though!\nGREAT atmosphere! \nGo for the app, wine and then go somewhere for dinner ;) \nTo be fair this is on their website:\n\"Cafe Provencal has been awarded St. Louis Magazines A-List Award! \"", "Bummer of an experience. The salad was uninspiring and the lamb was overdone and paired with mashed potatoes that were drowned in a salty gravy that reminded me of my mom's pot roast, not French fare. I had to choke it down.\n\nI knew I was in for a poor experience when the bread came out soft and yellow, covered in salt and paired with...butter! I thought it was a wedge of cheese. Duh was I wrong. Americans...sigh.\n\nI guess I'm doomed to lame bread until I can return to France again.\n\nI will not be returning.", "Went here for a quick lunch for one. THe service left much to be desired but my meal was Wonderful!\nI ordered the chef salad with beets, goat cheese, onion and an egg and a small plate of the scallops. WOW! Truly an enjoyable lunch." ]

[ "I went there on a weekday, about 130 pm. There was only 1 table occupied and a party of 5 followed us in. It took 25 min for the food to be ready and I was irritated to see that no one was preparing any food in the back. The only one there was the cashier. After about 15 minutes someone came into the food prep area and started making my meal. They had a small but fresh salsa bar area but no chips. The meal was good I ordered a Carne asada burrito with beans and rice. It was a good burrito contained Carne asada and Guacamole no beans or rice in the burrito witch is how I like it. The beans and rice were good and seemed fresh and homemade. Price was about $6 or $7 bucks. Ill give them another chance since the food was decent.", "These guys kick ass in my book. I visit Reno about twice a month, and this is the first San Diego-style taco shop I've found. Their carne asada and California burritos were better than the ones I had at Roberto's two weeks ago. And their breakfast burrito -- well, the tortilla was the best I've had in Reno or Northern California, and the inside was better than the last good breakfast burrito I had at a place on Claremont Mesa by Tierrasanta. I still need to try the carne asada/egg and the machaca burritos, but I'll definitely be back to do that. Leave a generous tip - dollars are the way to vote and encourage them to stay in business.\n\nSayonora to Super Burrito.", "Went back for a second time, I got the beef burritos plate 2 large burritos with peppers and onions. Wow! yummy! Good fresh salsa, but you have to pay for chips here. Open late maybe 24 hours.", "I was introduced to Aldertos by a good friend and I haven't had the need to look elsewhere for a taqueria. I usually get the carne asada burrito or torta. both have lots of meat and are very flavorful. Don't miss out on both green salsa's...outstanding. If you want to go through the drive through I recommend calling ahead and letting them know. The food is made while you wait so I can be a long sit.", "Food is good, portions are large but nothing to brag about! It takes just as long as a sit down restaurant but with lower quality food.", "I was not disappointed in coming here for the first time. Based on the prices I assumed I would have to order a lot of food. Oh man, I was so wrong. You definitely get your dollars worth here. The staff was super patient with us while we ordered and even gave us some helpful suggestions. Then when we asked about some of their drinks they let us sample it. For a taqueria, it was great service. We ended up with way more food than we could finish. If you're not that hungry you can totally get away with sharing a plate. I got the #4 which was a cheese enchilada, tostada, with rice and beans. The guy behind the counter even gave me a bottle of they're super spicy hot sauce. Can't say it was as spicy as I wanted it to be, but it had an awesome flavor. The rice and beans were super tasty. I'm pretty sure that they make the red sauce for the enchiladas, which is a major plus in my book. I would definitely recommend ordering it. I'll have to come back and try out more items from the menu!", "This Aldertos is the same as the Albertos in Cali, great huge orders of super fries & huge california burritos. Its a family that runs it & are very friendly & willing to make custom orders. They usually have tres leches cake & its amazing. They are open early in the morning & stay open til almost midnight & serve breakfast burritos all day. Also love the drive-thru. I eat here often because its home cooked restaurant style food at fast food prices & convinience.", "Went to the drive through, thinking it was still a Jimboy's. Ordered a bean and cheese burrito, 3 chicken tacos and a med coke. \nThe bean and cheese burrito was good, however the tacos looked & tasted like Sloppy Joe's and they were ice cold in the middle. They didn't give me my coke in the drive through, I had to park and go inside to get it. The mgr argued with me over the drink saying that I didn't order one. It clearly stated med coke on the receipt. I think ill stick to Jimboys.", "The boyfriend and I stopped in here with another couple one late weekday night after climbing at rocksport. We were all starving and this was the only enticing place open and nearby. It was 10pm and the restaurant was closed but the drive thru was open. We each ordered a burrito. It took at least 10 minutes for our order to be ready, but hey, at least it's made fresh! The food was surprisingly excellent! My boyfriend is quite the mexican connoisseur and each bite he took of his spicy pork burrito, he would exclaim how delicious it was! No fillers here - just meat, cheese and guacamole. The $6 burritos were so huge and so filling that we all struggled to finish them and there were plenty of leftovers for the next day! Really decent food, huge portions and at a really decent price - can't beat that!", "The Best Carne Asada burrito in Reno. That's what you order here. They make it San Diego style... no rice, beans, lettuce, etc...\n\nJust Guac, Meat, Cilantro, and Pico De Gallo - as I grew up on... as it should be." ]

[ "The Hive, the Hive, the Hive, what can I say about this place. Well I stopped by there for dinner the other day. I was not quite sure what to expect from this place, so I went. I walked into the door and the place was warm and welcoming. The bartender told me to sit anywhere I liked, so I opted for outdoors on their patio. The weather was nice so it was full.\n\nWell the waitress came up and she took our orders and we had a pitcher of beer since it was only five dollars, we could not pass that up. Our food eventually came. I ordered my one of my favorite sandwiches, the French Dip, and it tasted great.\n\nThe Hive is a great place to stop by for a meal. Most of the people seemed to be stopping by after work to have a drink or two and a bite to eat. Over all The Hive is a nice place to go.", "This little place is the perfect place for an after-hour drink for anyone who works in the Westport/Creve Couer area. \n\nIt definitely has the \"dive bar\" vibe going on, but most of the patrons tend to be businessmen and women with the occasional college-age person. They have great happy hour specials. You really can't beat appetizers at half-price and pitchers of beer for five bucks.\n\nThe food is your average bar and grill food; it's not stellar, but you won't be disappointed, either. My only complaint is the surroundings. The inside could use an update...everything was pretty old and worn. But, you really can't beat it for an after-work beer.", "The place is OK for a drink. Used to go\nThere several times a week for lunch because it was a friendly place (God knows, the food is nothing to brag about) but when ownership changed a few years back, so did alot of other things (not good things).", "This place is...meh. Went here for drinks after work with a few coworkers and there was no room for our group of 5. We ended up sitting upstairs in this crowded little balcony area and it was FREEEEZING! Asked the manager several times if he could turn it down, but he didn't do anything about it. The place itself is small, crowded, and smells heavily of smoke. I was in here for maybe 30 minutes and smelled like an ashtray when I came back out. The food is not that good, and overall not a great experience.", "One of my favorite spots for a drink after work. They have pretty good bar food and Their Fish Sandwich is delicious and perfect for those who observe Lent. The wait staff is very easy on the eyes as well.\n\nThe only thing keeping it from being 5 stars is the fact that it tends to be very smoky in there.", "Updating my review and adding a star for the outdoor patio. For some reason, the first time I came, I didn't see it even though it is right by the entrance. Probably because it was the dead of winter then and all I could focus on was getting inside. Anyways...\n\nThe outdoor patio is pretty nice! Small area (only about 10-12 small tables), but especially now that the weather is nice, it was a pleasant experience.\n\nHowever, this place is aptly named The Hive because there were a TON of giant bees everywhere! Maybe that's why they named it that...?", "What is there to say about the Hive? It's you're quintessential dive bar. Cheap beer, questionable crowd, poor food (if anyone has ever ordered it), and average service. It gets 3 stars because it's not trying to hide anything, and really cheap drink gets you at least 3 stars on its own. Plus in the summer time the outdoor patio is really nice, no matter what the inside looks like. I'm a sucker for a dive bar.", "I just moved in to the apartments across the street and walked over for some dinner and a beer or 2. It is your typical dive bar with no plans of hiding that fact. They had young blonde waitesses and bartenders wearing next to nothing and they were flirty and fun. They make no bones about the fact that you can smoke inside and have a sign that says if you don't like it leave. There are lots of friendly regulars along with the creepy old regular drinking water and staring at the girls. The wings were OK, but not great. Drink prices were good and all in all I will be going back since I can walk. Would I drive here for across town - no. Just can't handle all of that smoke.", "Had there been another installment, the Back to the Future franchise may have shot a scene here had Marty and Doc needed a location for the 60s or 70s. The Hive still awaits. Don't get me wrong, this is my neighborhood dive, and I'll take a dive over a pretentious snot bar any day. The food is alright, though there isn't much for veggies here. I usually get the spinach salad with bacon on the side for my critters, and something other than hot bacon dressing. The salad is generously portioned and pretty good. The atmosphere is LOUD. What?! It's loud! And your ears will usually be assaulted by wall shaking trendoid pop. The service here is dicey, unless you're a regular, then you might just get a PG rated version of a lap dance, while less recognized customers await, parched and frustrated. Nevertheless, the price is right, and it is MY dive bar.", "Great Creve Coeur dive bar. Nothing like staring at a Matador while taking a leak! (I think it used to be a Mexican joint) There are a mix of people all the way from the neighborhood drunk to some pro sports figures. Over all it is a good place to grab a drink and late night pizza. Try the hot sauce on the pizza, its great!! One last thing... Be careful when ordering mixed drinks, the tab can get pretty high!" ]

[ "Peggs is a family friendly pizzeria complete with several arcade games. It serves St. Louis style pizza and standard pizzeria fare (pasta, sandwiches, burgers, wings and plenty of deep fried appetizers). Their pizza is a sure crowd pleaser for St. Louis natives. Peggs Restaurant on the Boulevard is located in a renovated former Block Buster store. The restaurant is clean, spacious and the food runners are nice. There is no waiter, waitress or hostess. Instead, much like some fast food joints, you must make your way to the counter to place your order and pay, then you receive a number that you place on your table and empty glasses to fill at the soda fountain. When your food is ready the runners bring it to you. They do seem to fire the apps and entrees separately as they arrive well spaced. \n\nThe restaurant also has a full bar and I took note that they had a few local breweries and premium spirits featured. Still, this is a family freindly environment. As my dining companions and I were finishing our meal a 10 year old was about to have her princess birthday party at a reserved table with a dozen of her girlfriends and a young couple on an obvious frist date walked in, awkwardly held hands, ordered and sat next to a table where two middle-aged gentlemen who had just finished their pizza and beer were talking sports and watching a game on the tv mounted near the bar. The restaurant was busy when we arrived and always seems to be.\n\nThe Cheese Garlic Bread is very good. The Meatlovers Pizza needed salt and pepper but otherwise was fine. The House Salad was fine as well. The Guacamole Bites were interesting and I will order them again. Everything cost about fifty cents or a dollar more then it should but, other then fast food there is very little competition in High Ridge and few places are as good in this corner of Jefferson County. \nI will happly return to Peggs Restaurant on the Boulevard.", "Peggs has been around for years now. The food there is great. I have personally used her catering and they do a miss a beat. My personal favorite is pwggs bsked lasangna,randys is the beef french dip", "Very good food and great staff. The mildly mustard wings and pizza is awesome!! Love the new restaurant and nice bar. Better than Imo's!!", "A great neighborhood hang out. A new location for this local favorite. Wonderful pizza. Nice big salads. Very good burgers. They also have a nice bar. Last time we were there there was a group playing darts and another group around the golf game. Orders are placed at a counter and the food is brought to your table. Self serve drinks. It can be busy and loud. The lighting is low. You are not hassled by waitstaff and can sit and talk with friends for as long as you'd like.", "Great food, reasonably priced and at a great location. I have recently been working in this area and have had lunch and dinner at this location. Fast and friendly service, I have recommended Pegg 's to several people. Try it for yourself.", "Great local place to eat. Awesome sandwiches and salads. Pizza is yummy too! Great service and beautiful place. Good lunch specials though I limit myself to eating here cause it's in the high side IMO.", "Mediocre at best. You self serve. Order at counter and get your own drinks. The food is frozen microwaved. A bacon cheeseburger is 10.00 and you have to pay to add fries. By the time you add a drink you are up to 15.00 and they are not worth it. The service is slow and most of the time your food comes out at different times not all together.", "Great pizza and wings. Service is always quick and friendly with fresh beer on tap. Plenty of tvs and arcade games to choose from. Yay peggs!", "Took a chance on Peggs for a friend's birthday. Pizza tasted like cardboard with cheese, according to others in the party. I only order a trio appetizer and an ultimate trio, but someone forgot to start the regular trio. They came out and claimed they combined my order with someone else's order but no one else got potato skins or cheese sticks. And then I had to wait over 20 minutes for them to get it out to me. Never in this area, but definitely will not be returning.", "My wife and I have been to Peggs many times and have always enjoyed it, the pizza and wings never fail to please. They also have a very good Philly style sandwich ,and some tasty salads. The service has always been friendly and courteous. I do feel that the size of the wings has decreased lately. \n We like to arrive and eat early, because although I like the idea of family restaurants , it does get very loud , due to lack of acoustics , and pretty hectic once the families start to arrive for dinner hour. \n That being said we always enjoy our meal at Peggs." ]

[ "New Mexico based burger stop. Excellent Green Chile Cheese Burgers using only Hatch NM green Chile's. Also feature frys, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches etc.\nGreat quality food and reasonable prices.", "Was able to grab a bite with some coworkers on opening day! \n\nThey gave free samples for their vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry milkshakes: in my opinion, vanilla was best. The chocolate was reminiscent of a Wendy's Frosty, and the strawberry just didn't taste as good as the vanilla. \n\nAnyways, one of my coworkers is from Albuquerque, NM (where Lotaburger originated) and he recommended getting the green chili and cheese with the burger of your choice. I ordered a Kid's Burger (comes with just bun, patty, ketchup, mustard, and pickles) with the green chili and cheese. \n\nBeing opening day, there were a TON of people there to get their fast food on. A couple of my coworker's and I's orders ended up getting lost, but the staff was very polite and remade it. That being said, we did not check the orders before heading back to the office and, lo and behold, the green chilis and cheese were missing from all of our orders. Sad. Day. We ended up calling Lotaburger to let them know, and they graciously offered to comp our next meal :)\n\nAll in all, it seems like a great place with great food and great staff-- I'm excited to go back to FINALLY enjoy a burger with green chilis and cheese!", "BOW DOWN INSTEAD OF BEAR DOWN TUCSON. Im a Albuquerque native and my high school staple finally came here. The green chili is legit. hot like its supposed to be and the fries are perfect of all chains. Burgers are made fresh to order and can be customized. Frito pie is served too which is hard to find in the backwards old pueblo. Breakfast burritos are great too. No more cheap greasy Nicos for subpar morning filling. wish i lived closer. My best fav ever from my young days is a Lota Combo. Double Meat double cheese with green chili. Go repeat that order there and you wont have reason to doubt them", "Being that this place newly opened, and it takes a few weeks to \"break in\" before the food gets better, I'm gonna leave this 2 stars instead of one. \n\n...restaurant is nice, don't understand if they're going for a classic drive in vibe or a modern one... But who cares, the food is what matters. \n\nThe burger, is woefully disappointing when I compare it to other establishments that I frequent in Tucson (Graze, Five Guys). I was expecting *LOTA*burger when in fact I was served a little burger. Not my biggest concern, but when you advertise that in your name... You'd better deliver. This was not the case. \n\nTaste - these are mustard burgers, and it's hard to screw up one. The patty itself was fine, nothing to write home about either. if you've been to sonic or whataburger, you've been here. Which is sad, because they just moved into Tucson - the most burger-centric city I've ever been in - and delivered nothing new to the table. Granted, the burger tastes fine, no complaints about that, in fact the buns are outstanding. But mustard, lettuce, onions, and tomato is really all you're going to get, unless you like the green chile gimmick.\n\nFries were overcooked, average tasting. This probably will change after the new employees get the hang of it.\n\nI was excited to try out a new Tucson contender, especially after hearing others who've had it out of state rant and rave. But color me disappointed. I'll just go to Sonic if I want a mustard burger.", "Best Green Chile Cheeseburger. If you're a fan of onion rings, sub them instead of fries. Only a 10 cent upgrade! Shakes are awesome & they have crushed ice too. They were extremely busy with it being their Grand Opening week, but service made up for the wait. They were very friendly! Hopefully they add another soda machine. There was a line to get soda/refills. Can't wait to try their breakfast.", "Green Chile Cheese Lotaburger, I have missed you . Juicy, green chile that tastes like green chile, onion, tomato, hand leafed lettuce and an angus burger on a grilled bun. No mayo, no ketchup, only mustard. It was packed at two pm, so we took it to Himmel Park to eat. They were out of shakes, so water was grand. Onion rings were good, fries were excellent. They seemed to handle the crowds very well. They need to get the next one open soon. My sons were remembering their first double meat double cheese lotaburger from twenty years ago. Good memories.", "I don't get the hype. It's a regular fast-food burger that makes your mouth burn.\n\nWe ordered the green chile cheeseburger on recommendation of a native New Mexican. With a side order of the seasoned fries. \n\nThe wait was long and it was crowded and noisy for a Wednesday night. There were only two cashiers, and ONE drink machine. It's a fancy drink machine where you can customize your Dr. Pepper with extra flavorings, which is exciting. But when there is only one soda machine in a crowded restaurant, you end up resenting the kid who can't decide how to customize his beverage. \n\nSeasoned fries were pretty great, they're about what you'd expect. It's hard to ruin a French fry. \n\nBut the burger was a big disappointment, I guess I thought it was going to be life-changing, but it's really just a regular burger. They charge extra for the cheese and green chile, be prepared for that. \n\nI guess you have to be New Mexican to really appreciate this place, I don't think we'll be back.", "I visited Blake's during lunch and I understand they recently opened, but I wasn't all that impressed. First, the restaurant was crowded since the space isn't very large. There is also only one drink machine, so I had to wait in line for my soda. I sat at a table with my back to the food order line and I felt uncomfortable with strangers very close to me while I was trying to enjoy my meal. I ordered a single ITSA burger with green chili and cheese and regular fries (tasty). There were two hairs on my bun, so I asked them to make me another. It took them about 5 minutes. Two of my friends' burgers were not cooked to order. After 15 minutes, no one brought one of my friends his meal and we had to leave because we were in a rush. The green chili is spicy! The burger itself is nothing special. The patties are pretty thin and the bun was a little soggy. I would much rather prefer In N Out or Smash Burger. Blake's needs to step up its restaurant operations. It seems like their kitchen isn't running efficiently. I was disappointed because I have heard great reviews about Blake's in New Mexico. It is difficult to hear order numbers being called, too. They are having trouble keeping up with the demand and long lines, and it is unfortunate that their food quality suffers as a result.", "Very similar experience to Austin M. below. \n\nWent here last night and sat still just entering the parking lot trying to park for a good 10-15 minutes because there were 3 cars in the drive thru. I have no idea what took them so long to order but we had nowhere to go and people leaving couldn't get out. It wasn't that they were that busy - just seems like the parking lot is poorly designed. Maybe this will get better when the drive thru becomes more efficient.\n\nNow, finally, got inside....\n\nAs several have mentioned, the staff is friendly and welcoming.\n\nAs for the food.... My opinion is that any number of establishments in town has better burgers. The meat just didn't seem to be the same quality level as many other places. Grab a burger from In-n-out, 5 guys, Culvers, Freddy's, Monkey, Smashburger, or even the aforementioned Whataburger and throw some green chiles on it. To be honest, I believe I would even prefer the green chile cheeseburger menu item from Whataburger over this one. I ordered onion rings with my burger. Again, tasty / lightly battered but nothing special. I would have preferred a little better crunch on these. \n\nIt's certainly worth a try to find out for yourself but I expect a tough road ahead for Blake's once the novelty wears off. They've entered an ultra-competitive burger mecca and I'm just not sure they can cut the mustard.", "Standing in line at Blake's on this fine April evening, a 60+ guy chatted me up (drunk off tequilla, he said) and asked me if Blake's is worth all the hype. I told him simply \"Well, I'm from New Mexico, so I'm biased. Yeah, it is.\" The trouble with hype is that it can let you down. Did Blake's know they would be THIS popular within a week of their opening, with lines spilling out onto Speedway, and lines forming out the door? And why? I told the Blake's clerk, who came from New Mexico, that Tucson residents love hamburgers. Do we? Can it explain the insanity over In-N-Out burger when they opened- the lines, even now years later, are insane. Is Blake's a gourmet hamburger? No. Is it the greatest burger I've ever eaten? No. The fries- not amazing, but tasty. Do I really like Blake's, and the flaming hot Hatch green chili? Yeah.. I do- a LOT! Would I stand in lines or drive-thru on the street for it? N!. And I bet with that kind of hype, a lot of people are left saying \"What's the big deal?\" What is the big deal? It's new, everyone talks about it, it's from New Mexico? I hear it even now with In-N-Out burger: some people don't get it. That's the great thing about diversity and having a huge selection of hamburgers in this city to choose from. I have a few go-to places for good, really good burgers. But for fast and quick and delicious spicy green chili burgers (and an occasional burrito), I'll be going to Blake's.\n\nAnd a Nutella milkshake...seriously? Bring it on." ]

Decor is comfy, crowded, simple, but who cares, the food rocks. Awesome beer selection and total kick ass burgers! Very inventive between the buns, quality everything, and great selection for pairing.", "I was excited about eating at a Kirkwood restaurant that does not source their meat from factory farms. As we sat down our very congenial waitress informed us the kitchen would be closing in 20 minutes so we ordered quickly and didn't linger over our meal. Food and service were very good but we were barely on our feet donning our coats to leave when the bussers swooped in and starting clearing the table. I can understand wanting to get out of there at the end of the night but at least wait for your diners to exit the table before bussing it.", "We are big take out people so decided to give this place a try, we never made it to the Clayton location. We got the blue ribbon burger, green chile burger, fries and onion rings. The burgers were both good, we both agreed the fries were great and could have done without the onion rings. Our order was not quite done when I went in to pick it up but by the time I paid it was ready to go. As soon as I got into the car I tried an onion ring and it was cold and hard so it wasn't the travel that did those in. Burgers were cooked to the requested temp and my husband thought the pickles were delish.", "Just ate at the new location. Just as good as the store in Clayton! Not much to say accept this the BEST BURGER you can get other than on my grill. Tasty beef probably 80/20, cooked just right. Rings are great and my son said his sweet potato fries were good.", "The burgers live up to their name - they are hormone and antibiotic free, fresh-ground and hand formed. I particularly like their buns which, unlike some other burgers I have, don't overpower the sandwich with too much bread. They were perfect! \n\nThe fries (both regular and sweet potato) were excellent as well.\n\nI noticed that the salads and some other sandwiches are also focused on being organic, and/or come from small family farms. \n\nThe also have a good craft beer selection and offer up some ice cream.\n\nMy one daughter doesn't like burgers (which is all they have on the kids menu - hamburger, cheeseburger, turkey burger) but they were awesome enough to make her a grilled cheese as an option. I'd like to see a non-burger option on the kids menu, but definitely not a major concern if they're willing to make something else if asked.\n\nThe decor is simple and clean. The service was top-notch. I look forward to going back when I get an appetite for a great hamburger. A nice addition to Kirkwood.", "I decided to eat at Five Star Burgers on the fly tonight. Being a native Kirkwoodian I was excited to see the new establishment on Kirkwood Road. However, the service turned out atrocious. It took us 15+ minutes to get any service from these unprofessional high school students. Waitress after waiter and no service. Finally the manager offered to buy us our dinner while we were on our way out. Finally after about 25 minutes we got our food and complementary fried pickles. The burger was more four star and lacked any uniqueness. The sides we coldish and the prices were high. This was really unfortunate, I was excited for a new venue in downtown Kirkwood. I do not recommend Five Star Burgers.", "I went into Five Star on a Monday night around 7pm. It was busy but we had no wait on getting a table of 3.\n\nThe service/waitress was great and accomodating. You must ask for ice water per a note on the insert on the table.. to \"conserve.\" They could have been a little faster on the refills of our drinks since you have to request water in advance.\n\nWe ordered cheese curds as a appetizer. They were overcooked, with the cheese pretty much spilling out and hard due to being in the fryer for too long.\n\nI ordered a cheeseburger and side of fries. I asked for well done, but received just below medium well. It was average. The fries were great. The mexican cane sugar cola I received was great.\n\nMy wife ordered one of the burgers and sweet potato fries. The burger was cooked as requested, but the sweet potato fries were overcooked.\n\nThe deserts are great, although it seems like Serendipity ice cream took care of the deserts for them.

Two ladies had fish sandwiches which they said were delicious. A couple that had salads said were very good. I personally had the magic mushroom burger and it was wonderful.

Great new burger option in the area.", "Food - B+\nService - A-\nAmbiance - C\n\nI was so excited when Five Star Burgers announced they were opening in Kirkwood. Being a fan of the Clayton location, I was glad to have one closer to my home. \n\nI tried to visit Five Star Burgers on New Years Day and they were closed. So I was keeping my fingers crossed they'd be open today on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. We arrived around 1:45 PM and the place was the place to be. Lucky for us, they were able to seat us immediately.\n\nFirst thing we ordered, was their Fried Pickles. As Abbie our server placed our order, we decided on the rest of our order. When she returned, I ordered a Schlafly Pale Ale and Brad had a Ice Tea. We also, requested glasses of water. I ordered the Bison Burger and Brad had his usual, Dad's Green Chile Cheeseburger. \n\nWhen our Fried Pickles arrived they were good, but not as good as the Clayton location. The breading and the Tzatiki sauce here were rather bland. My Bison Burger was ordered medium, and came out well done. There was no pink at all, which is not a good thing for Bison. To my surprise, it was still flavorful and tender. When I saw that it was well done, I was so afraid it was going to be dried out. Dad's Green Chilies Cheeseburger, was as good as the Clayton location. In fact, Dad's is most likely one of the best burgers in STL. Angus beef, Crispy New Mexico Hatch Chillies and Green Chile Mayonnaise is a perfect burger. \n\nA large basket of Natural Cut Idaho Russet Fries is the right size for two to share. No ketchup bottle here, it's my favorite \"Cup of Ketchup\". We finished up with a mini cone filled Serendipity Ice Cream, our flavor was Salted Caramel. $1 a cone, is a sweet deal. \n\nAmbiance is as plain and boring as it can be, but I don't come here for the decor I come for the burgers. \n\nWhen: 20 Jan 2014\nWhy: Lunch", "SERVICE - POOR! My husband and I went last Sunday night. We were seated right away, however it was at least 15 minutes before our server acknowledged us and that was only due to another patron pointing it out to the staff. We were in a corner table but , hey, is that our problem to manage?? Isn't the waitress assigned to our table supposed to look out for that? The manager came to our table once the staff alerted her, was apologetic and did offer to buy our drinks but did try to use the excise that we were somewhat hidden. Again, our issue that you put us at that table and deliver poor service?\n\nFOOD- AVERAGE and hard to say..I do not eat beef and was pleasantly surprised to see that they offered a salmon sandwich, a bison burger, portobello and a veggie burger as healthy alternatives. But guess what? They were out of salmon , bison and portobello burgers . Strike Two! My husband enjoyed his burger and by default I ordered the lentil veggie burger which was surprisingly good. \n\nWINE- House red was average, the Chardonnay below average . Stick with beer. \n\nAMBIENCE- POOR. Absolutely no decor, boring and sterile. The few televisions they had were way too small . \n\nOn the flip side I do like the green spin on local and antibiotic free food they deliver and if they could stock the healthier choices I would probably give it one more try." ]

Its also not all junk for, there are some great salads (huge portions, sometimes just the side is enough) so if I feel like eating healthier I have options. The prices are extremely reasonable so I can get my rabbit food (as my boyfriend calls it) and he can get a great cheese steak or Stromboli. Also you can order online, which is a huge plus.", "My primary reason for liking Slices is that it's literally 3 minutes from my apartment. I also like that they aren't very expensive. That being said, the pizza isn't amazing. It's good when I don't want to cook, and it's definitely the best one within walking distance. The cheese fries are outstanding, so usually I bring home pizza from center city when I come home from school and just pick up the fries at Slices. Their deals are good, and so far the staff seems friendly.", "My girlfriend and I have ordered from Slices a few times over the past couple months. Typically the food is good and arrives (delivery) within 40-60 minutes max. This is fine. Two weeks ago our experience was to this level, though the fries seemed to be bottom of the frier (literally) as we received mainly \"bits\" of fries, most of which were hard and only shells. We also attribute this to being Friday night, as our other orders were during the week. Today (Monday), I got home from work and my g/f and I were rather hungry. Instead of running to the grocery store and cooking, we decided to order from Slices. This was at 7:40pm. It's now 9:20pm and we're both still hungry. I had to call them and they could not tell me if our food has left, but said it would be \"20 minutes\" 'til we receive the food. This is quite ridiculous as their estimate on delivery time was only 50 minutes when we placed the order.\n\nThe food arrived at 9:25pm. It was not exactly as ordered, but tasted decent. Still, this was far too long to wait.", "As far as the pizza, it is a solid B+...However, everything else is amazing. Rock solid Chick Parm sandwich, cheese fries are the best, good cheese steak (could use just a touch more meat). Stromboli is a little on the greasy side but great at 2am. \n\nOverall, the prices are good and the food is solid. Def better pizza in Philly but the sandwiches are great. They get fresh Liscio rolls (seeded soft rolls - amazing) and they are open way late on the weekends.", "I like slices, but everyone likes a different pie. I would stop in and see for yourself. Not my favorite pizza but it isn't anything to sneeze at." ]

It's Louisiana, can't go wring with food anywhere here!!!", "Dot's diner, shame on you!\n\nHow dare you call yourself a diner and not offer milkshakes?\n\nWe went here after getting the urge for brinner and a milkshake. It looked charming on the outside but after being seated we realized it seemed dirty and despite the typical swag on the walls there is nothing charming about this place.\n\nThe waitresses and cooks clearly did not want to be there and simply looked miserable. Our waitress barely looked at us and although I ordered simple chocolate chip pancakes my husband's sandwich and waffle was out a good ten minutes before my two measly pancakes got to the table.\n\nIt's redeeming qualities were the fact that the food is actually really cheap and my pancakes were pretty tasty.\n\nWe'll be sticking with Camellia Grill.", "Dots is for the most part what you expect to get out of a diner experience. The food is classic American lunch and breakfast options with a few local options thrown in. I have had breakfast and burgers here and all the times have been good with fast, attentive service. This location can get a bit cramped and loud on a busy weekend so get there early but as in many diner type establishments they turn the tables pretty quick so you won't be waiting too long.", "It was very good. we order the lumberjack breakfast it was super yummy. it had a nice diner feel, the waitress was really nice and the food came reasonably quick.", "So my ladyfriend and I went to dot's after a fun night of drinking and darts (thank god no one lost an eye). One thing I noticed is that I believe it's a requirement that all Dot's need at least one lady with a raspy voice. Anywho, the service was great, the food was pretty good, and the staff has that charm and love that you expect with a place like this. I also got a chance to meet Lord Chaz, who heads up the vampire tours in town. He even showed us a neat trick where he stops and starts his pulse. Creepy? Yes, but I like it. If you're looking for some late night eats and fun, then try this place out.", "A great local (regional chain) diner with friendly staff, serving up tasty comfort food in a clean and pleasant atmosphere. The menu offers a wide selection of breakfast and sandwich items, all reasonably priced.\n\nOn a quest for a good meal from a non-chain restaurant, I searched Yelp and found Dot's. I'd driven past Dot's several times and thought about trying it, and now I'm glad I did.\n\nI found easy parking right on the corner, and was encouraged when I saw local law enforcement and taxi drivers dining here. Greeted when I entered, I decided to sit at the classic diner counter. The interior is nicely done in a semi-50's diner motif, with a fair amount of seating including booths and tables. Flat-panel TVs with CNN and ESPN gave you something to watch if the local color didn't somehow maintain your interest. The waitress promptly provided me with a menu and asked for my drink order, all the while greeting other diners as they came in, many by their first names (obviously a local favorite.)\n\nAfter reading about the Crawfish Julie (thanks Meli E.), I decided to have the seafood omelet with hash browns. Watching the cool looking cook whip up my omelet (she sure knew her way around the kitchen!), it was ready within a few minutes, and served with a buttermilk biscuit that was halved and then browned on the grill, a nice touch! My omelet was delicious, as were the hash browns. Despite my best efforts to limit how much I was going to eat, everything was so tasty I wound up eating it all.\n\nI checked out using a major credit card for under $10, and left with a satisfied smile on my face.

I was wrong..", "Wow! They have expanded! And it's still \"Standing room only\"! You just gotta love this place. The food is always great and the service is always outstanding.

It was late Sunday night so i wasn't in the mood for breakfast foods but i sure wished i got them. The inside looked like a typical dinner, everything was very clean, and everyone greeted us as we walked in and made us feel welcomed. My wife ordered mini burgers w/ fries and a short stack. She wanted me to try there pancakes said they would blow IHOP away. i ordered onion rings and country fried steak with mashed potatoes n veggies. Our food came out really fast, there wasn't anyone in there at that point. The onion rings were ok but tasted like they were store bought. I didn't get to try my wifes mini burgers but i didn't hear any complaints either. My food was great, well except for the brown gravy over my mashed potatoes. I didn't care for it, so i scraped it off, everything else was great, I asked for some butter for the pancakes and she gave me a squeeze bottle which i thought was awesome so i could add a little or a ton. My wife was right ( Don't tell her i said that ) the pancakes were really freaking good. The entire meal was reasonably priced, and we had a good experience i will go back next time i am around one i will probably update with better review once i had there breakfast." ]

Try their green corn tamale, not something you can find at every Mexican restaurant in town. The tamales are served \"pure\", not fancied-up like at El Charro's. I also loved their enchiladas, albondigas soup (meatballs), tortilla soup as well as cocido soup. They also have a nice selection of Mexican beers, a big plus! I miss Micha's!", "The best Mexican restaurant in Tucson. It close to work and easily accessible via 1 10. Fresh Guacamole is excellent and must have. Chips and hot salsa if very fulfilling. For large group I would recommend reservations.", "Some of the best food in Tucson. I am a Native to Tucson so I have eaten good Mexican food all over town but Micha's is in the top 2. I have NEVER had a bad meal from this place. Always friendly service, clean and fast to serve the correct meal, hot and tasty! My fave is the \"patty beef\" taco. Comfort food when I was a kid! Not as good as Moms, but what ever is? These are about the closest thing to Heaven I have tasted. Carne Seca is Great! Margaritas round off the meal quite nicely!", "Chile rellenos in the Tucson Area rated according to the Homeland Security Advisory System with three word descriptors.\n\nMicha's: nice canned chile. Green\n\nSee photos.", "Well, I just have to say that Micha's is one of the greatest real-deal Mexican restaurants in the Tucson area...and that is saying something because there is STIFF competition here for that particular title.\n\nFamily-friendly, great service in either English or Spanish, and the food, served hot and fresh, is among the best you will find. For breakfast, try the Huevos Rancheros...muy delicioso!", "As a Tucson native and no spring chicken, I feel I'm experienced enough to rate Mexican restaurants in town. I have tried many, and find Micha's to be mostly good, solid Sonoran fare. HOWEVER -- their seasonings on some dishes are not quite top-notch in my opinion and -- yes, I'm a food snob -- when I find fat or Unidentifiable Foodlike Objects in my carne seca or carne asado or machaca, I am not a happy camper. Micha's failed in this regard and I'm permanently grossed-out. Tucson has some great Mexican Restaurants -- go to one of them instead.", "When we approached we had our doubts. But the meal was wonderful for mexican food enthusiasts as well as non- spicy fajita lovers.", "Micha's is my favourite Mexican restaurant anywhere. The salsa is awesome, the carne asada burros are like no other. (And I've been trying to find something even close in PHX.. no luck...nada).\n\nTucson offers so many great restaurant options, but Micha's is the only must-visit when i come to town.", "Micha's opened with a dangerous salvo: salsa that tasted like ketchup and horchata watered down from a cheap concentrate. As we were reeling from this, they hit us with the entrees, which were basically salt disguised as food. The machaca blazed a hitherto unknown culinary trail into the heart of blandness. Furthermore, while machaca should be salty, there are safety limits--limits that Micha's exceeded several times over. It's hard to make cured beef suck, but there are talented magicians working in their kitchen. Depressingly, the machaca was downright wonderful compared to the menudo, an inedible saline bath reminiscent of the Pacific Ocean, if the Pacific was full of hominy. It was initially promising--the bowl was loaded with corn and tripe, the broth was thick and opaque, and there were bones floating in the depths. But a few spoonfulls lead to a spike in blood pressure and the soup had to be abandoned; better to have a bowl of cereal at home.\n\nOur experience may have been atypical, but we won't be returning to find out. Mediocre food is forgivable, inedible food isn't." ]

First course of smoked salmon bruschetta was very good as the pickled shallots(?) and fried capers really complemented the salmon.\n\nEggs Benedict was good, though the dish could have benefited from toasting the English muffins a bit longer.\n\nWIll have to try out dinner and report back.", "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH to go to the Kimberton Inn and have a table by the fireplace on a cold winters' day. How blissful. Where you don't even know that there is another table next to you because the wait staff can walk in between them without any problem there is so much room.\n\nI had forgotten just why I like this place so much. Sigh. Why does it take me so long in between visits?\n\nIt was a birthday celebration for my friend (and several other people judging by the little shopping bag presents) and we took her out for brunch. Always a special treat at the Kimberton because they make the best Sticky Buns and you can have as many as you want. The buttermilk biscuits aren't bad either.\n\nThis was a prix fixed meal $23.95pp (no longer a la carte?). And they start you off with fresh squeezed orange juice (lovely treat) and delicious coffee. (Ethiopian- Smile, I took home a copy of the menu so I could write it up.)\n\nYes I like this place. It may be a little too grown up for some of the yelpers on the board, but if you get out this way think about trying it. I think the building may actually be a national historical one? During the winter the landscape view is a little dreary, but I've been here in the spring when you can really feel you are out in the country. The grass is green, the water ripples and the flowers are blooming in abundance.\n\nFor the three of us we decided to have a taste test of\nBananas a la Kimberton\nNew England Clam Chowder\nHazelnut Crusted Chicken Breast over \"Probably the Best Salad You Will Ever Have.\nYes that is what they listed the chicken dish as.\n\nMy husband chose the Bananas- which brought a raised eyebrow from me as- HEY! We're going out to a nice restaurant and you're having Bananas as your first course when you could have ???? What can I tell you he likes them. And what he got was a banana sundae. The whipped cream was very fresh (with a touch of almond?) and the glass was stuffed with cut up bananas. I ate every last drop when I got the glass away from him.\n\nThe Clam Chowder was very tasty, filled with lots of tidbits. And the Crusted chicken and salad was very good. I had to split my portion of the chicken salad with my hubby (rolling eyes) cause I ate all his bananas. Hmmmmm.\n\nNext up:\nCoconut Rum French Toast with Fresh Pineapple and Sausage\nSeared Striped Bass with asparagus and bacon/leek beignets (hush puppy)\nProsciutto, Pancetta and Aged Provolone Cheese Omelet and Home Fries.\n\nWell I could have kicked my better half under the table again when he ordered the omelet. Laughing. There were OTHER things on the menu I wanted to taste, but it WAS his meal. And the eggs came out more puffed then I've ever had in an omelet. Does that qualify it as a soufflé? It WAS good I concede.\n\nThe French Toast (well folks it is French Toast) was very good and you get a good size portion and the sweet along with the tangy sausage, with a sip of coffee was just perfect for a Sunday brunch.\n\nIf I had to put a damper on the meal it would be with the striped bass. And that was my choice. It comes with a thyme lemon butter that was a touch to ??? bland? And this from a woman who doesn't like spicy food? Can you believe it? Or maybe I just did not have enough sauce on my piece? But the hush puppy's that come with it were divine. Next to the sticky buns I'd like those in the bread basket.\n\nPart of the quality about this place is that your water glass was never empty, your coffee cup always filled and if you needed something you were more than likely to look up and see the owner helping out at the next table as well as a staff member standing quietly and patiently nearby.\n\nThere is an understated quiet air of country elegance about the place.\n\n\nOh I forgot (give me a break) it comes with dessert.\nWe were already full and yabbering away so I wasn't sure if there was going to be dessert (not that I needed any). \n\nBut we had\n\nPecan pie with vanilla Ice Cream\nChocolate Crème Brulee\nStrawberries with Short Cake\n\n\"I\" loved my pecan pie. Am so glad I ordered that. I'm not a great crème brulee person, but you get a big portion of it. It tasted a little bit in between chocolate fudge and chocolate mousse after you got under the hardened upper shell. My husband (rolling eyes) picked the strawberries with Short Cake. It wasn't a sweet dessert and again would not have been my choice. But he ate every single bite of it and liked it. \n\nNow when am I going to go back to try out the rest of the menu?", "Ya know, there's nothing better then going here then if someone else is paying for it.\nFriends took us out as a thank you- and they like this place as much as we do.\nIt was during the week so the place was not overbooked and it was nice and quiet.\nWe had a table in the corner just as I like it and the service was attentive as always. You usually don't know they are there and just go on talking.\n\nI had the lobster bisque, penne pasta with shrimp and the apple crisp with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.\n\nI have to say I WAS a tad disappointed in the the lack of flavoring in the lobster bisque. It was just not up to the Kimberton standards that I expect. Boo Hoo.... But the shrimp with pasta was mouth melting devine. I was in heaven. Yeah really. Sorry, I get that way sometimes. \nAnd the warm apple crisp, oh how happy I was that I did not order a chocolate dessert. Can you imagine?\n\nMy husband had the crusted bass with balsamic reduction. The fish alone was good, but the reduction made it pop. My friend had the liver.................liver? who goes to a restaurant and orders liver? It was delicious. With bacon and onions and a potato mash. She also had an open lobster roll for an appetizer that also was mouth watering, but since they were paying for the meal I didn't want to put them to break the bank. Her husband had a steak with tiny shoe string potatoes that was huge. If I were a big meat eater I would have attacked it across the table.\n\nThe atmosphere makes a big difference in the food here also. It is quiet, relaxing, and you can take your time. \n\nI don't come here often because it is a little pricey, but it really is special.", "When you combine (Ambiance, Service, & Food) ~ Kimberton Inn has the Best Sunday Brunch in the area!

There will simply be \"We would hurry back\", or \"We would not hurry back\".\n\nWe are blessed to live in an area with such rich culinary diversity, and it is even better when we can sample quality food in the warmth and charm of an old country inn. So it is that my frequent dining companion and I find ourselves on the well-traveled path to this classic destination. Now, Kimberton, PA, is not around the corner, but it's a relaxing journey that takes you through Valley Forge National Historical Park, and into the rolling hills of Chester County. Trust us, it's worth the trip and you will be rewarded with a consistent combination of creative food and superior service, all set in a cozy, warm yet elegant atmosphere.\n\nMy frequent dining companion and I like to arrive early, and have a cocktail at the bar prior to dining (they have jazz at the bar on weekends). Here we can relax and catch up on the day before being escorted to our table. Knowing that we were heading to our favorite country inn, we ate an early breakfast, and a very light lunch, making room for what was to come. My frequent dining companion began her evening with an appetizer of Smoked Maine Salmon BLT ($9.50), a delightful combination of salmon, apple wood smoked bacon, micro greens, tomatoes and herb aioli on grilled sourdough bread. To my dismay I was told that we would not be sharing; an indication that it was just too good to part with even one bite. I chose the classic Shrimp Cocktail, and was rewarded with several jumbo shrimp, and the most wonderful cocktail sauce I have ever tasted. A little investigation revealed that the sauce is a blend of chili sauce, cilantro, lime juice, and horseradish. I'm thinking that I should tuck these ingredients away in my head and remember them the next time I make a Bloody Mary.\n\nWe enjoy wine parings when we dine, and this evening we chose a Valpolicella Ripassa from Zenato. A Ripassa is a wine that is first fermented in the traditional way, then fermented a second time using the pomace (grapes, skins, etc. that are allowed to dry for 3-4 months), creating a wine with greater depth and complexity, virtually bursting with flavor. This wine is currently available by the glass or by the bottle, and is well worth a try. Although I would normally pare it with meat, I enjoy it so much I could not resist trying it with my spicy appetizer, and I was not disappointed.\n\nWe each chose a Caesar Salad ($5.50) for our next course, a traditional combination of romaine lettuce and dressing. The portion was perfect, and we both enjoyed the delicate balance of flavors. If you are a salad lover though, don't miss Probably the Best Salad You'll Ever Have ($6.50), a delightful combination of red leaf lettuce and baby spinach, tossed with a sweet sesame-walnut dressing and topped with tart apples, toasted sunflower seeds, and aged Gouda cheese.\n\nOur entrees consisted of Naturally Raised Hazelnut Crusted Breast of Chicken ($24.00) for her, and Soft-Shell Crabs ($24.00) for me. Now before you ask, this is one of the only places where you can order chicken, and be thoroughly pleased. The dish consists of a good size breast of chicken with a crunchy hazelnut crust over mashed potatoes smothered with Kennett Square mushrooms in a delicate sauce. My soft-shell crabs were a special of the house that evening, and were worth waiting for. Delicately sautéed, they were melt-in-your-mouth perfect.\n\nWhether you choose a relaxing weeknight, or a busy weekend, know that the service will be perfect. The \"dance\" which is good service performs like a well-rehearsed symphony, and your every need will be addressed in a cheerful and timely manner. I'm always amazed at how flawless the service is, and how they can seamlessly accommodate a wedding reception, a full dining room, and a dinner in the wine cellar. Be sure to visit kimbertoninn.com, for more details, including their amazing wine dinner events. This is one restaurant that we will (and do) hurry back to visit.", "This is the wonderful place I chose for my wedding, and it couldn't have been more magical! Jeff is the best business owner I have ever met. He is so professional and truly cared that every detail was just what I wanted. From the planning stages to the moment I left the reception the night of, I felt completely cared for, with him always close by to make sure I was happy and unstressed. The food is heavenly, and the atmosphere is warm, cozy and romantic. We have now made it a tradition to go back every year on our anniversary.", "This place is so beautiful, historical, warm and laid back. I went around Christmas time and so the place was decorated in christmas garb, overflowing with large dramatic fresh poinsettias and naturally decorated trees. The service is impeccable and the food is traditional and delicious. The lobster bisque had a generous portion of actual lobster chunks and the \"Best Salad\" really is the best salad! It is on the pricey side, but now they've added an \"everyday menu\" that has more reasonable priced entrees. I order the beef tenderloin which came with fresh cut pommes frites and a delicious bernaise sauce. It was tender and flavorful and only $23...compared to $33 for the filet mignon. This is my new favorite place and I can't wait to go back!", "I had an amazing Sunday brunch the other weekend with family and no one left unsatisfied. Each diner had a different item during the three-course meal, which changes with freshness & availability. I had the Bananas a la Kimberton & Vanilla French Toast. Members of the family had a delicious cheese omelet, perfectly made NE clam chowder, an Asian steak salad, scratch pancakes, & pork tenderloins. \nMake sure you call in for a reservation, as this is a VERY popular meal at the restaurant. \nI spotted an outdoor patio that was under construction and it looked nearly ready to accept seating.", "Unlike the previous review which was for Brunch, this one is for dinner.\n\nUnfortunately, my dinner experience did not live up to the expectations I had gained from Brunch visits. The dishes were out of the 80s (not that there is anything wrong with that) and executed without finesse, making the end result just ordinary.\n\nI hope this was just an off day and will try it again to give them the benefit of the doubt." ]

Service was also good, friendly also. Bartenders were nice, juggled a healthy French Quarter Fest crowd. Would definitely recommend. If you're a tourist, and want to experience some affordable New Orleans burgers, this is definitely the place.", "Awesome spot I go to get a drink and a fantastic burger in the quarter. Fun bartenders too! Great authentic New Orleans bar and food, keep it up guys!", "Great location in the quarter with easy access. Love the name as you will not forget Port St. Peter is located on St. Peter Street! The food was excellent, I had the grilled chicken which was seasoned to perfection! The drinks were strong & tasty as well! Will definitely be back again soon!", "This place used to be named ya mama. New owners couldn't buy the name. Beyond thrilled we found it. Same great food and drinks. Go back- it's still here and the Best Buy in the quarter.", "I miss 'Yo Mamma's' already.\n\nThankfully it's the same (awesome) cook from Mamma's, but so far I'm not encouraged by the new management's take on the setting itself: TV's gone, jukebox volume was cranked up to ear-splitting levels, and the \"!!!WOOOOOOHELLYEAH!!!\" brodawg quotient seems to have risen along with it. This place was never a ballroom, but it doesn't have to be Lil' Razzoo's either.\n\nThree stars for the good food and genuinely friendly waitstaff. The \"new\" setting was a depressing letdown, however, and the name change is unfortunate -- it's almost as though they want to be mentally associated with Port o' Call, which this place is most certainly not.", "Went around looking for a spot to eat and was one of the only good spots open. I have to say their burgers are one of the best in Nola and the hospitality was amazing! Paul the bartender was awesome! Definitely recommend coming to this spot!!!", "Really great burger and wonderful bar staff. Bloody Mary's to die for. Just off bourbon street and open whenever I walked past it. Bar staff really good in advising what to order to eat and drink. Let them guide you, I did and was wonderful.", "The old yo mamas has a new name. Port St. Peter. We were confused walking in but pleasantly surprised by the same great burgers and friendly staff. The name has changed a bit but we still loved it!", "Totally delicious! Had the peanut butter burger, yum and my friend had nachos very tasty beef on the nachos.\nStaff was super cool and quick friendly service.", "Short version:\nOmg!! Must eat Gumbo here !\nStaff, a joy.\nService, tops!!\nLots of laughter in a laid back, quaint setting.\nSeveral t.v.'s for the guys out there. \nSeating had ample room for larger bodies, as body builder size need shoulder & ample sitting room to be comfortable while they eat.\nServing size, very large for most.\n\nExplanation:\nTried to go a 2nd time b4 we left New Orleans! But it hadn't opened yet. Food was out of sight, drinks were perfect! Service fantastic and atmosphere, laid back & fun.\n\nJustification:\nI will be calling the owner of this \"hole in the wall restaurant\"! My guy & I were hungry but very wrapped up in each other & the moment. Friend I was with is larger than average, body builder type so quality food is a preference for him. We found the food of exceptional taste & quality. \n\n$$\nNeither of us cared about the price, but it was very reasonable. Not high like other tourist Restraunt across the street.\n\n......UNTIL the big man outside, later to be revealed as \"Malcolm\", invited us in. We were NOT ready to eat or drink, we were just soaking up each other..but due to Malcolm's inviting welcome we were hooked.\n\nDynamics of the experience:\nRestaurant had a small crowd already forming (was early evening, 3pm ish). The waitress/bar tender was cute & energetic. Malcolm spent a few minutes talking to my guy outside & convinced us to take a minute & come in. He then went straight to the heart of the matter! Talking food, laughing etc., w/the Man! Definitely smart on his part. I feel they were assessing his likes so as to assist in our selection. Great sales tactic. \n\nMust know:\nWe found that exceptional service was not a priority in most touristy places of New Orleans. Very Disappointed & let down in restaurants that were selected for us by hotel staff. We found some exceptional places to spend your money if you want a laid back, taken care of experience while in New Orleans. See other reviews from me. \n\nContinuing on:\nWaitress convinced us to try her drinks. We really weren't there for that, actually wasn't ever a priority on the trip. Very much caught up in the moment instead. The waitresses self proclaimed famous creation of a pineapple/coconut Long Island tea type, strong drink was yummy. So was her Tokyo tea, not smooth but still good.\n\nThe place started getting busy and the service attention stayed pretty close to the same. \n\nFood specifics:\nThe Gumbo was beyond fantastic! I can not say this enough. 2 days later and I'm awake with it still on my mind. Friend was happily satisfied with the plump shrimp added to the dish. \n\nWe actually made the mistake of going to another restaurant for a late dinner, based on a recommendation by the hotel staff. We were gravely disappointed and let down at their recommendation and wish he had gone back to Port St. Peter. Gumbo at Oceans restr. had pinky nail sizes rubbery shrimp.\n\nThe gumbo at port St. Peter had a beef base, \"umami\" feel to it but didn't have any beef in it!! (I asked) it was loaded with quarter or larger size shrimp, andouille sausage, chicken, rice and much more. There was something special about this gumbo! I will try to attach a photo. The fresh & crisp onion tops (not chives) added to the dish made the umami \"pop\". Chef knew what home cooking was all about. \n\nI asked the chef to come speak to me (so I could find out his secret & compliment him on his creation) he was humble & appreciative. He also shared willingly- huge plus. \n\nWe shared the food,as we typically do, and the serving size was large, made for a healthy appetite. (I didn't want to get too \"full\", for reasons we won't discuss -lol-) but it was so good it was going to be either another bowl of gumbo or try something different on the menu. Friend got a burger and the macaroni and cheese. Another great dish! \n\nI will come back to New Orleans just to get this Gumbo again! \n\nI have a pretty discerning palette when it comes to food and have eaten WITH some well known food critics as well as established chefs from around the world;where \"they\" eat (when they have down time). \n\nIf your not into walking down St. Peter street from Camp street, take a ride to the river and walk the few blocks from that direction or take a bike ride buggy. It's well worth it.\n\nThis place needs to be sampled by all! You will not be disappointed. \n\nLastly, I apologize for the review being so long..but the stuff is still on my mind & people need to try it." ]

[ "Just tried The Creperie this evening - on a Friday night at 6:30 pm and the place was packed! Since this is the first review for it on yelp, let me add that they are located in the regal 22 restaurant row. And what a wonderful addition it is! Now we know where to go for dinner on our movie dates. \nThese are the same people who have the cart in the Farmers market on Saturdays (or so I read in the Scene mag). So most people probably are familiar with their offerings. Apparently people had been asking them to get a brick and mortar place and so here they are. Thank heavens! \nPrices range from $3 - $7 - sweet and savory. We tried the La Provence and Thai Chicken today - both were generously portioned so much so that even my husband admitted it was difficult to finish one on his own. And they didn't scrimp on anything for $7. We can't wait to go back to try some sweet ones. I was very happy to see th crowds there. As we all know, that particular row of businesses hasn't enjoyed good luck in the past so please Boise, let this one make it. Go try them out. After \"Square\" closed, I didn't dare hope that we would ever have another such establishment. And in some ways this one might even be better (price point). The place is on the cozy side - but laid out nicely. The staff were friendly.", "This place is awesome! We had just finished a movie and it looked good so we stopped for dessert. They have sweet and savory crepes plus homemade candy, fudge, etc. The service was fantastic too! Most sweet crepes were about $4-$5. Not sure on the savory but I think they were similar prices. They sell drinks but you can get free water in actual cups. They also have some kid foods available.", "The Creperie is a fun night out especially when coupled with a movie at Edwards next door. We have been there 3 times now. The food is wonderful! Really enjoyed the Thai Chicken, De Poulet, and the Mediterranean. Each was unique, flavorful, and just yummy! Really liked the Eclair sweet crepe too! I noticed the last couple of times we were at Edwards that lots of people were in Creperie but not too many in the other restaurants around there. The prices are very reasonable for the amount of food and very satisfying. My husband and I like looking at the menu and taking suggestions about what to try next. It's a great, new, creative eatery in Boise- love it.", "They need Grand Marnier. How can you have Nutella and Banana crepe without it? Also, need to fill the crepe with the goodies, not just on top. I give it three stars because it's the only crepe place I've seen in Idaho. If there was competition, I might be a little more harsh.", "As of right now, they are running a special where you get two crepes, two sodas, and two movie tickets for $30. Killer deal! I saw their cart at the Saturday Market but it was closing time, so my boyfriend and I went there later that evening. I got a sweet crepe (Thai Banana) and my boyfriend got a savory (The Islands). We loved them! They were very friendly and helpful on the different choices. We also bought some homemade candy which was sooooo good! The owner of the restaurant will also make your crepe to-go and you can take it into the theater with you! How cool is that!? We will definitely be back to try more.", "Will L. Thanks for the reply to my review. My apologies but I thought you were in the business of selling crepes, not your religious viewpoint. I find it prudent to update my review after just recently returning from Paris and experiencing what an authentic crepe should taste like and after unveiling your ulterior motive of shoving your opinion on coffee and alcohol down my throat (instead of your food). The crepes in Paris were stuffed full of goodies and it took nothing away from the experience. It doesn't matter how pretty your birthday cake is... If it doesn't taste good I'm not going to eat it.", "Update (2/17/2015): It seems they changed hands. The food is still good, but the vibe of the place is very different. It used to feel very family friendly, and just friendly in general. The new vibe is more like just processing people. I have not gone much lately, because of that.\n\nThere used to be an understanding with Edward's theater where you could take a Crepe in, it seems that has gone too. \n\nOriginal review: 7/25/2011 One of my favorite places to eat in town. My 6 year old daughter even has it as one of her all-time favorites. It is difficult to find this combination anywhere else in town. Fancy, up-scale food at a VERY affordable price. Great for both a date, and for the the family. The owners have done a spot on job. \n\nI have yet to send anyone here to eat, that didn't love it.", "I'm so addicted to this place! I always go for the crepe deluxe (it has strawberries, bananas, a cream cheese, and crema cream, and nutella) and then buy a few more to take home. \nI'm a big foodie, especially for desserts, and this place is amazing. I've gotten all my friends addicted to it and they 're so nice. If you have any new recipes for them, they're always happy to try them out, too.", "I will concede a certain amount to Jason. Personally, I'm a fan of alcohol in cooking and I do love a good cup of coffee. That having been said, it is patently absurd to give a restaurant a low rating for what they DON'T have. By that rationale, I should be rating nearly every Chinese restaurant in town as one star because most of them don't serve dim sum. The fact remains that I enjoy the food at The Creperie, have never had a bad meal there, and continue to go IN SPITE of the fact that they don't serve coffee, which to me is a testament to just how good the food is. Furthermore, to lower a rating from three stars to one on the basis that you don't like the fact that the owners of an eatery let their religious beliefs inform their cuisine is pathetic and childish. It's a good thing we don't have any kosher delis in town...", "LOVE! Good Prices. Great Food. Fun Experience. Will be back.\n\nTried 4 different crepes and all were very good!\n\nMy favorite crepe was the Spicy Jamaican Chicken Crepe unique flavor, and the level one spice was warm and wonderful in the mouth!\n\nWe also enjoyed the Ma Province crepe it tasted like garlic chicken pizza at papa murphys.\n\nThe De Poulet crepe would be great for bacon lovers and would be better for breakfast in my opinion!\n\nFOR DESSERT we had the bananas foster, with creme brulee on top and added strawberries!\n\nThey were super accommodating, and the guy who looked like Antonia Banderas was super hepful, and willing to answer all my picky questiona!\n\nWe also tried the tomato basil soup it was good well worth $2 for a cup." ]

[ "Stopped into Empire Deli today, heard a lot of good chatter on the street, so I thought I would check it out. So glad I did!!! Tried a slice of their deluxe pizza, being from the east coast originally, I would have to say it was one of the best slices of New York style I have had outside of the city, Crust was perfect! Toppings were fresh and the cheese was 100% mozzarella!!!!\n\nMy friend had the King Louie sandwich, (love that they serve sandwiches here too!) which was outstanding. The meats were stacked high and sliced right in front of us. The bread was fresh and she kept raving about the sauce on it. \n\nLooking forward to going back soon!!!", "We were downtown this weekend and ran across Empire Deli and Pizza for a quick lunch. I was blown away with the quality of the pizza and deli sandwiches! I had a slice of the peperoni with a mildly spicy coppa and a slice of 'the works'. I was impressed by the amount of toppings and mozzarella cheese, the crust was perfectly done, thick enough to chewy but thin enough not to be doughy. My wife had a muffaletta sandwich which had a very generous amount of meats and cheese with a great olive mixture. The half sandwich was way more than she could eat so I got to try some and we both enjoyed it! \n\nThis will definitely be my goto place for pre-sporting event lunches and late night snacks!", "Ninja says, This is one of the best pizzas he ever had period. Ninja been all over the world on \"ninja business\". Just came back from Rome, Florence, Pisa, Sienna, Milan etc . He had some of the best pizza ever there. Ninja had Shakespeare's Pizza, 2 Amys in DC, Di Fara in Brooklyn....Ninja even prides himself on cooking Brooklyn-style pizza. This pizza is so good it makes Ninja want to give up being a ninja and turn to Buddhism because he find Nirvana. If Ninja find whoever it was that rated this 1 star, they must be very careful because Ninja is very angry with them.", "Really good NY style pizza, as well as a delicious sounding deli menu (I just keep getting the pizza, so can't speak from experience). For a taste of St. Louis, there's even a slinger pizza! \nReally fun, modern feel to the place. Prices are reasonable, slices are big. A single flat screen TV is hung in the perfect spot for all patrons to watch the Cardinals play.\n\nThis would a four star review easily, except the pizza is a bit lacking on sauce. When I got a cup on the side, the flavor wasn't particularly good.\n\nI will definitely keep coming back here, and eagerly await the opening of their sister restaurant next door.", "I am surprised no one has reviewed this spot yet being there is a lot of late night and lunchtime foot traffic downtown so here is my two cents. I am from the east coast and walking into Louie's really took me back with the large pizza's in the display case and the wonderful fact that you can buy by the slice. In fact when I walked in the guy at register says to me \"Wanna slice\", just made me smile. I actually went with two sandwiches, the KING LOUIE and ANNA MAY'S CHEESE STEAK. What, I'm from Philly, I like cheese steaks and hoagies!! The King Louie is Hard Salami, Hot Capicolla, Pepperoni, Mortadella, Roast Beef and Provolone Cheese with Italian Aioli, Shredded Lettuce, and Tomato on a 7\" Hoagie roll. I was a nice blend, the hot Capicolla really stood out, with a nice garlic spike. The roll was toasted, not really a fan of toasted sandwiches and it doesn't state that on the menu but all in all it was very good. One thing, they were out of provolone, I went with American, no big deal. \n\nThe Anna May is thinly Sliced Italian Roast Beef Braised in Spicy Giardinara and Garlic Au Jus with melted Provolone on Toasted Ciabatta Bread. You can smell it before it comes out, wonderful, wonderful grilled beef scent. It's a little fancier than the Philly cheese steak, again no provolone and the bread was buttered and grilled, great idea. Both were very good, service was great though I must say I was the only customer. At $9 bucks a sandwich, well not really that great, thank you Groupon. Talking with the staff be for warned on weekend evenings they are super busy and being it's on Washington ave I can see that. I hope they last for that corner has not been the most friendly location for businesses.", "Arrived at 1:45. Ordered at 1:55. Paid at 2:10. Was told they would bring my food. Asked the manager/cashier at 2:35 where my food was. He asked a line cook, who them pointed at a deli case. Apology. Barely. Once they figure out the late night crowd, it will be awesome. The cheese pizza and turkey club were amazing!", "This is pretty legit pizza. Like pizza the size of your head. Or paper plate. I was comfortably full after one piece. But it was too delicious to just eat one. So I ate another slice.\n\nWe ordered half sausage and half cheese. I only ate the cheese, but it had some pieces of sausage on the side, which was good. But oh my goodness this cheese pizza. If ever you wanted a nice greasy, cheesy, not too thin or thick slice of New York style pizza pie, and you're NOT in NY, this comes pretty close. I don't like too much pizza sauce, it was perfect. The flavor of the cheese and the texture of the dough was a perfect match.\n\nPizza by the slice, beer, and Avengers. Can you think a more relaxing scene?", "Recently stopped in with my sister and two nieces. The interior was bright and the decor is casual. I had a Greek salad that was just \"so so\". It was not like any Greek salad I have had before, it had lots of banana peppers and black olives (yuck, seems like the cheap way out), and the dressing was blah. \n\nMy nieces had a slice of cheese pizza each. This was the strong point. I admit to sampling since my salad was such a disappointment. One slice is plenty for one person, the crust, sauce, and cheese were all delicious making for a pretty damn good slice of NYC style pie. \n\nMy sister had a pasta salad that she liked, but didn't make a big impression. \n\nI would happily try a sandwich or have a slice, but I'll get my Greek salads somewhere else.", "Had lunch here with a couple of other folks. We sampled two fifferent slices, cheesesteak sandwich and salad and found all to be above average. You order, pay and the food is delivered to your table. The task of getting the order from the kitchen to the table seemed to be too much for the fellow who was rersponsible during our visit. During luch that's not a good thing.", "I'm a big fan of this place and have been 2 or 3 times already. I've only tried their pizza by the slice. It's really solid! Their pepperoni is shredded, which I've never seen before. It's really spicy and yummy! \n\nI've also enjoyed their cheese and a combo that included jalapenos. One slice is plenty filling for me! And a good price!\n\nCan't wait to go back." ]

[ "I am psyched to see a cafe in the Dutchtown area!!!! Urban Eats looks to be very promising. They have a great selection of Chauvin coffees, pastries, and muffins in the morning. Their small lunch menu offers paninis, wraps, and flatbread pizzas with your choice of toppings. I had an Italian meats (Volpi's on The Hill) panini which was spectacular. Full of veggies,meat, cheese, and tapenade. Oh boy...it was delish! The Asian slaw is cool and tangy, and the Summer salad is wonderful (full of greens, toasted walnuts and dried cranberries.) Plus, this is just a really cool space. Very relaxing, and free wi-fi! And now with the liqour license, they have BOOZIES! Yes, smoothies with booze. Drink up!", "My friend took me here the other day, as it has become one of her favorite places to eat out. I can see why. Urban Eats does healthy scrumptious eating right. As you walk in you are enveloped with wonderful scents of yeast, meats and more, leaving your stomach screaming for some of their food. \n\nThe set up of the menu is really to my liking. You can choose panini, wrap or flatbread pizza with listings about what is in it, you then decide what you want in it: chicken, veggies and the like. There are many options, and all of them are good options. \n\nI got a wrap with herbed tomatoes with the chicken breast. This is one of the best wraps that I have ever eaten, hands down. I cannot wait to bring my husband here, he is going to love it as will all of you!", "John and Caya are just an amazing couple and it is no surprize that Urban Eats is just as amazing as they are! Everything they do, they do to their very best and that includes dancing. They are two ot the best dancers in St Louis. So do yourselves a BIG favor and check out Urban Eats the first chance you get!!! Uhmmm.....dance and eat.....now that a concept to think about......", "If you live in or near Dutchtown, you probably already know this place. If you don't live in or near Dutchtown, drive there and eat here immediately.\n\nThis is amazing food. I mean, completely amazing. I have yet to have anything here that isn't totally and completely amazing actually. There are a ton (and I mean a TON) of veggie and vegan options. There are not a lot of really vegan friendly restaurants in St. Louis, so I am always happy to find places that will cater to my friends that have forgone cheese and eggs. The paninis are amazing. I mean, totally and completely amazing. I am hooked on these things. \n\nAlso, the entire atmosphere at this place is divine. It is relaxing and upbeat and just a great place to hang out. Get lunch, get breakfast, get brunch, get coffee, read a book and hang out. No matter, you will enjoy your time here. This is one of the best additions to this neighborhood and hopefully not the last great restaurant to plop itself down here.", "This is a great place in Dutchtown. The place looks great and provides an atmosphere to just sit, use their WiFI and enjoy the food and drinks. It is an oasis.\n\nThey have great food and reasonably priced. The inside is clean and hip!\n\nIf you are in the neighborhood, stop by, it is a must", "This week my friend Emily and I had a coffee date, and she was more than excited to introduce me to a new spot. And as a resident of the Tower Grove neighborhood, I usually don't venture far from the many coffee options we have in the area.\n\nUrban Eats Cafe was a perfect setting for our conversation on community, the arts, and the future of St. Louis. This establishment supports local non-profits, offers conference room for next to nothing, has its own gallery showing local artists, and has plenty of information on the Dutchtown neighborhood and area non-profits as soon as you walk in.\n\nThe decor is slick and urbane, but still incredibly comfortable. The service is very friendly. Community, decor, hospitality, all these elements combined make you feel as if you have been transported to Portland or Seattle.\n\nThe food is phenomenal, good for you, and incredibly cheap. Other than fast food restaurants, I can't think of anyplace in St. Louis where you can get a sandwich for under $5. That's right, FIVE DOLLARS. I can't wait to go back.", "This place is as good as the other Yelpers make it out to be. No, really. It is. \n\nI went here for an early 11AM lunch on a Saturday. I wanted to beat the lunch rush, and it looks like I did. Aside from a few girls headed to a wedding, I was the only one there. \n\nThe inside is SO cute. Tables and chairs everywhere; even a sofa to relax on if you so desire! Free wifi. Lots of newspapers and magazines. Outdoor seating. I even noticed free doggie treats for your furry friends! I felt completely at home here. \n\nAnd the service! SO friendly, from the moment I walked in the door. They made me feel like I was doing THEM a favor by walking in their little shop. Yes, it's that kinda place. LOVE LOVE LOVE the service. Super sweet, helpful, and friendly. You don't get that often nowadays. \n\nAnyway, the food. I ordered a southwestern chicken panini on 5-grain bread. It was absolutely delicious! Fresh chicken, baby spinach, cheese, tomatoes, chipotle sauce, bacon...OMG. Wonderful. \n\nI am a sucker for bread pudding, so when i saw it on the menu, I had to order that as well. It wasn't the best bread pudding I've had in my life, to be honest. But it was a good effort. And they served it piping hot, so that was a plus. \n\nI took my food to-go, so I didn't get to fully enjoy all that Urban Eats had to offer in the way of atmosphere. But I will DEFINITELY be back. They have a vast array of yummy smoothies and boozies (smoothies with booze!) as well as an impressive lineup of local beers from smaller breweries. Yum. \n\n5 stars all the way. If you haven't visited this little gem of a place, do it. NOW. \n\nDid I mention that the food really is cheap? You can get delicious food at a really reasonable price. So seriously. Stop what you're doing RIGHT NOW, and go.", "Add me to the list of people who love this place. Our meetup group has a monthly event hosted here and it is hands-down my favorite venue. Great food and a wonderful atmosphere combine for a perfect place to meet friends. \n\nThe menu allows for very flexible ordering. Pick your particular style (wrap, flatbread pizza, etc.), your main ingredient (I suggest vegetarian), and your flavor (Italian, Greek, etc). For $2 more add a drink and small side or a larger side and drink for only $3 more. The sesame ginger noodles make a wonderful side.", "Affordable prices. Healthy, delicious food. Free Wi-fi. Cool tunes. Cozy atmosphere. Coffee and espresso drinks. Boozies (smoothies with booze) and beer and wine. Homemade hummus. Spiced pumpkin soup. Flatbread pizzas. Iced chai lattes. An art gallery attached. \n\nWhy the hell aren't you here?", "This is going to be a weird circuitous review. Stay with me.\n\nAlso, I realize I'm going way against the grain with the lack o' stars, but everyone else seemed to have real food. This review is for the coffeeshop crowd.\n\nSo I see on my favorite website stlmealdeals.blogspot.com that Urban Eats is offering free hot chocolate with whipped cream and chocolate sauce on this extremely cold day. There's nothing better than hot cocoa on a blustery day. Except free hot cocoa. 5 stars\n\nThe woman working at the counter was super nice. 5 stars\nBut, service was really really slow. 4 stars\n\nNot wanting to be that person that just gets the free thing, I added a cookie onto my order. As she goes in back to get the hot chocolate she tells me to grab one off the shelf. Hmm...I don't remember seeing saran wrapped homemade cookies mixed in with the chip bags.\nOh. Oh no. It can't be. Really?? Grandma's packaged processed cookies. Like out of a vending machine. 2 stars.\n\nI just can't do it. I read the list of ingredients trying to convince myself. But no. Even though I've already paid, my new year's resolution was no processed food and it's only like a week in. There was no way I was wasting my precious calories on vending machine cookies while at a cafe and *ahem* bakery.\n\nScanning the menu, I inquire about the gooey butter cake. She says it comes from a company. Still 2 stars.\nIs that company perchance Park Avenue Coffee? I ask hopefully. She goes into the back to check. Haas. Well, at least it's local. 3 stars.\n\nThere is a $1.50 price difference between the cookie I ordered and the gooey butter cake. She doesn't make me pay the difference. 4 stars.\n\nThe hot chocolate was pretty good. I guess. Like the kind you get at the ice skating rink. And no whipped cream or chocolate sauce. 3 stars. \nThe gooey butter cake was the dreaded gooey butter danish. But, that's really Haas' fault, not Urban Eats. \n\nSo, there we have it. A 3 star experience with a few ups and downs along the way. It is a cute place and the real food did look good, but the place calls itself a cafe and BAKERY. Meaning one can expect homemade goodies, or at the very least, goodies that look homemade.\n \nThe cookie situation was a major disappointment. I suggest Urban Eats takes the money it's paying Grandma's and invest in some tubs of Pillsbury dough." ]

For a second I thought Denny's owned V.I. because you have the Denny's green and the menu looked like theirs as well. \n\nThey had eggs Benedict but there is something scary ordering e.b. at a diner...so I opted for the chicken fried steak that came with pancakes, eggs, and potatoes and was pleased. \n\nSo if you're craving diner food, come here.", "Poor service.

A bad experience all around.", "I just thought after the remodeling it would a great place to go but i was shocked that at 1:30pm that the staff would be asking me add my name to the waiting list of 3 other names.

We use to go here but now we will pass up this place. No customer service and a rude staff. Remodeling only goes so far.", "Took a long time for someone to come and seat us even though the restaurant wasn't that full. Wait staff was nice and fast once seated. Food was good and came out fast. Overall not bad.", "Service was horrible! Had about a 15 minute wait, which isn't bad. Waited another 15 minutes for waiter to acknowledge our presence. Had to ask for refills. Took over 30 minutes to get food. Tables left uncleared for long time with people waiting.", "Have visited Village Inn on Sundays with my family for many years, many times at the location near Busch Gardens. Enjoy sunday breakfast there but really am disappointed by the \"hostess\" who always seems to have a bad attitude. It isn't rocket science to seat someone and doing it with a smile would go a long way!!", "I'm not sure why this place has bad reviews. We've been here a couple times and its always good. Our server Michelle always is very attentive and is a wonderful server. I had no idea that they offered a free slice of pie on Wednesdays with any purchase. Not all pies are eligible but they do have a huge variety to choose from. I got the triple berry the crust was flakey fresh and delicious. My husband got the strawberry rhubarb and he said it was also very good. Our daughter got the coconut cream and said it was very tasty. The coconut cream is not eligible for the free slice of pie. Just a very good place to come for breakfast...it is served all day." ]

[ "It has been a long long wait since George and Jennifer Sabatino left Stateside. But it was definitely worth the wait. Amazingly inventive cocktails, creative (and more importantly, delicious) small and large plates makes this my vote for the Best New Restaurant in Philly for 2014. Hands down.", "It looks like I missed the first review by a few hours, but that doesn't change the experience we had on opening weekend: hit and miss.\n\nWe were massive fans of Stateside and couldn't wait to give Aldine a try. The entrance is not marked and easy to miss, so make sure you're familiar with the surroundings when you stop by. Upon climbing the stairs, we were excited to see the relaxed, warm, somewhat romantic ambiance, and we were thrilled with our two-top window seat.\n\nThe service was on point all night, but still a bit awkward and a little unsure of the menu, which is very simple and nondescript. It's the the kind of menu that really forces you to trust the chef. I felt the same way at Serpico and Noord recently, and both times, the chef won, but it wasn't always a success here.\n\nWe started with the saison draft, which was not too cold and a little flat, which wasn't a great start. To pair with it, we had the rabbit and raw beef plates. Each of us loved one and not the other, which was unusual. I preferred the beef with it's jarring contrast of soft meat and crunchy quinoa, while my partner enjoyed the more cohesive taste of the rabbit terrine (never would have guessed it from the menu description). \n\nThe star of the night arrived next, which was the sunchoke soup with apple crisps. It was extremely flavorful, smooth and perfectly seasoned. I will note that we asked for more apple chips, because there were only three on the plate, and they added a wonderful contrast that was needed for the entire dish, not just the first two bites. Along with this, we had the squid/pork belly dish. I felt that the pork belly was a little over and the squid wasn't featured at all. It's really a pork belly dish with squid shavings and black rice crackers...not my favorite.\n\nOur main was the duck, and if we would have had just this dish and the soup, this was an easy five-star review. It was incredibly tender, spicy, and packed with strong duck flavor. I really enjoyed it, but we should have stopped there. Instead we went for dessert and two after-dinner cocktails.\n\nThe cocktails were great with the vodka slightly beating out the gin and pear. I thought the price and the size of the vodka drink were very fair, and it seemed to get better as the ice melted. Unfortunately, the fennel fritter with maple ice dessert was a serious disappointment. It was five small fritters over unflavored snow cone shavings. It was hard to finish, and after explaining our disappointment with our server, it should have been removed from the bill. On the flip side of that, the apple/coconut/caramel sundae was delicious. The best way I can describe it would be a high-end deconstructed apple pie a la mode.\n\nWe fought over a three or four star review, but the old method of: would we return or not settled the score.", "This was a heck of a meal. 2 friends and I sat at the bar and ordered several things to try. The portions were great for this plan. Over the course of the meal we had the oysters, crab, rabbit, cappelletti, and hangar steak. The least favorite being the crab. Everything else was agreed upon to be superb. If looking for a fancy meal in Rittenhouse you should go here.", "Creative and edgy creations using terrific and sometimes unusual ingredients. The use of textures and flavor contrasts is particularly impressive. As some others have mentioned, the sunchoke soup and the duck preparation are outstanding, as were the beef carpaccio and an awesome truffled cauliflower item. I might like a few more carbs and some more hotter temp and spice dishes. I thought the crab dish was lacking and kinda salty. Service teamwork was among the best I've recently experienced; which is pretty cool two weeks in. Nice second floor space accessed by some pretty weird steep steps and a non descript entrance. Limited, but real nice international wine list. Couple of awesome desserts too, especially the ice cream dish. Come with an open mind and you'll experience a very talented chef and enthusiastic staff.", "Drinks were great, very tasty bourbon cocktail to start, followed by a nice rose that went with well with many of the dishes. \n\nHighlights included the pasta with duck sausage, skate, and the sunchoke soup in particular. Menu is approachable and flows well, will return.", "Dropped by for a meal on a weekend getaway. Aldine was amazing. Service, food, employees great. amazing courses of small dishes, plus the recommended plates were perfect. Drank... Whatever was the drink of the night ... Tequila-based, perfect , and i don't usually even drink tequila. Pasta and octopus the standouts. Plus that Carmel desert. Go here.", "My husband and I stopped by for an impromptu dinner and it was AMAZING!!!! Nicki was so attentive at the bar that we ending up staying there and enjoying our whole experience. I am not sure if there was anything we didn't like :0 We started with the BEETS , then the CRUDO, then the PORK BELLY, and then the CAPPELLETTI. \nThe whole experience was a TASTE EXPLOSION and I can't wait to go back!!! The service exceeded our expectations...We even met George and Jennifer who were hands on throughout our whole experience!!! Don't miss this great location just two blocks from the square!", "I got taken again! $50 person for dinner and I left hungry. The food tasted great but $10 for three forks of cauliflower. I could have gone to China town and had food that was as tasty and half the price. The only reason they get two stars was the service and the look of the place.", "Great meal, Aldine should be way more busy than it was on a Saturday night at 8.\n\nThere are 13 items on the menu -- we ordered 10 of them.\n\nThe pasta and duck breast were incredible and our waiter paced the meal really well. \n\nThe dishes are meant to be shared, but some of them were a little awkwardly presented if that's the goal.\n\nWhat's most important though is that the food was awesome, and likewise for the cocktails. I hope Aldine makes it.", "Easily the best meal I've had from George Sabatino yet! Definitely on the modern side of the fence, which don't usually impress me much, but the flavors were so direct and uncomplicated that it ate like soulful comfort food. Just really good creative food. I can't recommend this place enough and can't wait to go back again!" ]

[ "Retirement homes sort of scare me. Even so I adore old folks, there's just something about the aura surrounding those places that keep me away. I don't know why. \n\nI think that's why I stayed away from Guo Bin for so long. Although tons of people said it had great food, the fact that it's attached to a retirement community, albeit a lovely one, kept me at bay.\n\nBut one day I finally took the plunge. And I'm glad I did. \n\nIt's a lovely place. Really large and bright. And everyone goes there. Families with kids and people on dates. Even some of the adorable elderly folk who inhabit the building next door.\n\nThe waiters are a bit brash at times, but still very accommodating.\n\nThey even assembled our moo shu for us, which were very delicious. They had a snap from the green onions and a sweet kick from the plum sauce.\n\nMy favorite were the cold sesame noodles. Not too sweet and not too sesame-y, they were a bit nutty, a bit tart and a bit sweet all at once. \n\nI hadn't been in a sit-down Chinese restaurant in a long time, and this was actually a surprising treat.", "If anyone has ever gotten off the exit ramp at Delmar and 170 your eyes will always seem to drift towards the giant red doors of Guo Bin. For years I have gotten off at that exit and driven past it. Then one day while a couple friends and I were going to go get lunch I suggested that we go there and we did.\n\nWalking through those giant red doors was like walking through the Great Wall of China and stepping into a most wonderful place made of food. The smell just comes all around you and stepping into the restaurant you can't wait to sit down and order. The food comes at you pretty fast, but that is okay because it taste great and you'll be done before you know it.", "You should go to Guo Bin for one main reason: the POTSTICKERS. \n\nSeriously, Guo Bin's potstickers have set the standard against which I judge all other Chinese restaurant's. Their potstickers are definitely authentic and homemade and their strength can carry the entire restaurant.\n\nAsk for vinegar, not soy sauce, to dip them in (or at least mix vinegar into your soy sauce). Why? It's what us Asians do with potstickers; the acid really brings out their flavor. \n\nPotstickers aside, I also love the friendly staff and atmosphere. The hostess/owner would ask me why I don't come by more often and the waiter would always try to give me life advice.\n\n(I've moved out of STL 6 months ago. I wonder if they still remember me...)", "I'm not sure why other reviews are so interested in the physical location. It isn't glamorous, but it isn't strange or a problem. Typical Chinese decor, both inside and out.\n\nThe food is great. Bear in mind what you're going for well-prepared Americanized Chinese dishes. Not crazy authentic, but crazy good.\n\nThe potstickers are fantastic - little dumplings full of savory pork. Alisa M's recommendation of vinegar is spot-on.\n\nThe General Tso's is a little sweet, but it has a great flavor. The Mongolian Beef was fantastic - perfect sized cuts and a soft/slightly crispy texture.\n\nI'd also recommend the fried rice. Fantastic! Also, they have several Korean dishes off the menu. They even brought me Kimchi without asking... pretty cool.\n\nThe owners are nice and polite, the servers were friendly and considerate. What else could you ask for?", "Guo Bin is a guilty pleasure here at our office. It's just a hop, skip and jump down 170. Actually, we drive down there but you get the idea :)\n\nLunch specials are pretty standard - soup, crab rangoon, and entree. Prices are fair. Entress worth trying - Chicken Lo Mein and Broccoli Beef. Both have just enough sauce but not greasy. Crab rangoons are a little small, but tasty. \n\nA majority of Guo Bin's business must be takeout or during dinner because everytime I go in there to pick up our order, it's empty! The staff is friendly and orders are usually ready in 10-15 minutes.\n\nNice place, will continue to indulge with my co-workers in the future.", "I've passed by this place dozens of times, and thanks to Yelp, I finally gave it a try (story of my life!) \n\nI'm really glad I did. Guo Bin was pretty fantastic. \n\nI was by myself, so I placed an order for carry-out. The hostess was super friendly, and handed me a menu. Their menu is HUGE. I finally settled with crab rangoon, egg rolls, and Flaming Beef (I think that's what it was called!)\n\nEverything was super tasty. The egg rolls were really good. Lots of meat. Not as good as my beloved Mai Lee, but a solid second place. The crab rangoon were good. Nothing too special. \n\nThe flaming beef (once again, I hope I'm getting this name right!) was amazing. It was spicy and very very flavorful. \n\nI will definitely be back, and next time I will dine-in. The restaurant was beautiful and looked very clean. \n\nSo why 4 stars and not 5? The price. For chinese food, this is EXPENSIVE. i guess it's worth it for high quality food, but $27.50 for the things I ordered? Not cool.", "Guo Bin is definitely a hidden treasure in St. Louis! Great atmosphere - reminds me of the old fashioned Chinese places I used to visit with my family back in Northeast Philly. \n\nI really didn't like their egg rolls, but everything else was very good... just short of excellent. We tried the cold sesame noodles, sweet and sour chicken, general tso's chicken and moo shu chicken. All were delicious and served hot.\n\nTheir fried chicken dishes are very crispy - more crispy than I've ever had at a Chinese place. Too crispy for me, actually.\n\nShu Feng in Olivette is still the best Chinese in St. Louis, but this is a strong contender for 2nd place. Also - if you have 8 or 10 in your group, they have huge round tables with lazy susans in the middle!", "So, I've lived here for about three weeks now and have ordered carry out exactly once. You see, my old apartment back in Evanston, IL had the tiniest kitchen--as someone who loves cooking and baking, it was very frustrating to attempt to do anything outside of putting the kettle on for tea due to a lack of counter space. I've been having a field day with my huge kitchen here...I'm pretty sure I'm in love. Sometimes though, you need to let someone else do the cooking.\n\nI was craving Chinese in a major way the other day and turned to Yelp to find decent Chinese that wouldn't break the bank. I wouldn't call myself a Chinese connoisseur, but I know what I like and y'all, I liked this place.\n\nI ordered the General Tso's chicken and crab rangoon, two things I usually get when I order Chinese. The chicken had a nice kick and was pleasantly spicy. I know the dish is supposed to be spicy, but there have been several times in the past when the chicken has left something to be desired. I also liked that it wasn't swimming in sauce. The rangoon was good as well. Smaller than the ones I'm accustomed to eating, but I think it's a good thing. Also, they went easy on the cream cheese (HUGE PLUS...nothing worse than having heavy rangoon).\n\nAll in all, I was quite satisfied. The woman who rung me up was super sweet. I think many places need to take a lesson in service from this place--polite, helpful, and very friendly. My food also was ready extremely quickly. It was piping hot when I picked it up and was still hot when I got home. I'll definitely be eating here again in the future. Some reviews mention that this place is pricey. No, it's not Chinese at rock bottom prices, but I'm used to paying a bit more and honestly, this is way better than the Chinese I've been eating for the past four years.", "A very good Chinese restaurant, in more of the sit-down-white-tablecloth Chinese variety than the quick take-out-for-a-rainy-evening Chinese.\n\nThe style here is slightly (emphasis on the slightly - this is still a Chinese joint with fried rice and chow mein) more \"French\" than other Chinese restaurants. The sauces seem more complex, as do the seasonings. They have some lamb dishes. I don't think it's quite right to call it Beijing-style cuisine, but there's definitely a more aristocratic feel to the food than what you'd get at Mai Lee or Shu Feng or Wonton King. As an example of how they put more effort into their food, they make their moo shu pancakes there, so they're thicker with more air pockets. Personally, I'd rather have the thin translucent pliable ones that you can get everywhere else.\n\nThis isn't to say it's bad at all, it's just a little different than your run-of-the-mill takeout place. The food quality is consistently excellent. The Peking Lamb and Yu-Shian pork are delicious. The Guo Bin Beef is fantastic as well. Note that none of the really good stuff is on the lunch special menu; unless you're a really big tightwad or don't care what you're eating, it's probably worth the extra couple of bucks to order off the real menu if you're going for lunch.\n\nI've never eaten in, but the service for take-out has always been splendid and quick as possible. Also dig that it's next to a retirement home.", "Guess what..... Another Chinese review!!!\n\nNow, this was a tough one. The very first time I had Guo Bin, it was amazing. It was like I found Neno Brown's New Jack City. To put more basic... The food was like crack. I kept trying to stop eating my order of General Tso's chicken in order to save some for future consumption.... It was alot easier said than done. \nNow, I ordered from there again about 4 days later, Same thing. It was different. Not necessarily a \"bad\" different. Just.... Different. \nNow two weeks after discovering Guo Bin, I ordered from there tonight. Guess what I had!!!!.......\nIt was DIFFERENT than the last two. How many ways can General Tso's chicken be made in the same eatery?? \n\nThree so far.........\n\nWould have given 4 stats... Maybe even 5.. If they can bring some consistancy with flavor." ]

It was something with pork chops and loaded mashed potatoes. I remember having some green beens sauteed with garlic that were good.

They fixed it quickly.4 stars.\nService Not friendly, but service was ok. Restaurant was pretty full. Good welcoming hostess. 2stars \n\nTime #4 1-3 months ago. Myself and son. \nFood We both ordered jambalaya with grilled pork chops. The waitress came back and said there was only one chop. I let my son get that and I ordered shrimp pasta. My pasta was horrible, milky tasting with flavorless chewy shrimp. My son's pork chop was scrawny and was less than grilled being very whitish in appearance. 1 star. \nService Not friendly, but service was ok. There was one other table seated, two ladies and a toddler. We could overhear them complaining to their waitress about something with the food. It was 8:50 when we arrived (see hours of operation). We were immediately told we couldnt get anything fried. When we wanted iced tea we were told that it was out at the moment. I ordered a coke which tasted horrible. When I told the waitress she shook her head and said, \"I told them it was going out.\" and removed the drink from the table. I told her I wanted the tea. After a while, it came out looking funny and didnt taste good either. She should have offered to bring me something else between time of waiting for the tea to be brought out. 1star \n\nHours of Operation\nDon't go if its close to closing time. My son wanted to go on a weeknight. It was about 8:45, I wasn't sure if they were open so I called. The female who answered seemed confused when I asked, \"so you close at 9:00pm, do you seat until 9:00 or is it too late to come now?\" After being told to hold on for a second, I was told I had to be there before 9:00. \nCall before you go, as they can be closed unexpectedly. Twice within the last 6 months, I have went on a Saturday around 8pm. and they have been closed. I live in the area but in both instances I have left from the westbank specifically to go to Sassafras. Yesterday when I went I invited someone to meet me there. They got there first and told me there were no cars and there is a permanent operations time sign with a closing time of 9:00 for Saturdays, but there was a temporary sign that said closed due to a wedding. Read my review of The Dish on Hayne because that is where we met up next, but we were turned around... \n\nPet peeve:\nSome young wait staff dont have the savvy or training on how to engage with the customer. They follow a script at best \"Hello, my name is ___. I will be waiting on you today. These are the specials.....Can I start you with something to drink.\" Then they continue to go through the motions in such a robotic way. Please train your younger wait staff on how to acknowledge and recognize returning customers, be friendly with kids, be upbeat/cheery, and share opinions and suggestions about the menu. A good question to ask starting off is \" Have you dined with us before?\" \n3 of the 4 times I have been there its been my son and I sitting in the same section with the same waitress with the same lines. I can't say the wait staff is not experienced per se, so that's why I use the word 'friendly' .", "I had been waiting FOREVER for this location to open, because Gentilly deserves it. Finally, the doors opened not long before I left my beloved N.O.; and I had a great meal, as I anticipated. \n\nThe first time I went, I had stuffed peppers which did the trick. They were very nicely cooked and seasoned, just like a Creole food fan wants it. The second time I went, I had seafood pasta, which was also predictably delicious. Obviously, every time I visit N.O., Sassafras is going to be one of the places I'll have to try to hit. I want to get the smothered okra next time I'm there. The prices are very reasonable, too.\n\nThe only thing that drives me nuts is the place is so small and the parking is a little inconvenient. Neither is a deal-breaker, obviously. :-)", "I've eaten at this place once while visiting home. It's really good and the prices are very reasonable. Very tasty gumbo for a restaurant.", "My husband and I made a stop here when an relative made the recommendation. The food is amazing and the servers are outstanding. They really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and at home. I know that sounds like it goes without saying, but that's often not the case. Sassafras is a must if you are ever in New Orleans.", "While I was a UNO student dining options were always slim. Campus dining got boring quickly which had most of us going down the street to a shopping center with a Subway and a Quiznos. For what seemed like forever a storefront right by that Quiznos was being remodeled and had a \"Sassafras Coming Soon\" sign. Time passed and I'm sure Sassafras opened but I only seemed to have enough time between classes to get fast food.\n\nFlash forward to this week when I find myself going to campus in the evening to meet with some professors in a professional capacity. I had an hours or so before our meeting and decided to relive my college days and have a sandwich. Soon as I pulled up by Quiznos I saw Sassafras and decided give it a try. I'm glad I did. The restaurant itself is small. There are four or five booths next to three or four tables on one area and a smaller area just off that with a single large table for 6-8 and some smaller tables for two. Decor is slightly upscale from most of the restaurants in the area.\n\nSassafras bills itself as \"Creole and Soul Food\". I'd say that's a pretty accurate description. The menu is filled with things like red beans, fried catfish, and shrimp every way you can imagine. I was immediately drawn to the fried oyster plate, but alas they were out of oysters that day. Instead I got a dinner special, chicken parmesan. The incredibly large chicken breast was lightly pan friend with a very peppery batter. It was served over a bed of spaghetti and marinara along with a salad and a roll. The salad was more than just the usual house salad that looks like it came out of a bag from the grocery. It was well composed and plated. The chicken breast was juicy and delicious with the peppered batter complimenting it well. The spaghetti and marinara were pretty standard, nothing special there but not bad in any way. The roll had some kind of honeyed butter on it that was delightful.\n\nMy entire meal, including an ice tea, was under $15 after taxes. For the large portion of good food and great setting that's a killer price.", "For months I've been contemplating visiting this place cause I stay so close I never came because I didn't know what kind of food they served. Well, hunger, noting wanting to cook, and a desire for something close and non-fast related drove me to this visit. \nSevice: Friendly\nEnvironment: Small, but neat and pleasant. \nPrices: Reasonable\nFood: I loved it. I found exactly what I was craving which was a stuffed bell pepper. The food was a good size...more than I could eat. ( I think I might've gotten a extra stuff bell pepper). The only reason why is not 5 stars is because the bell pepper was cold in the middle. I didn't expect them to be made to order because they are a lot of work but I was still disappointed my the coldness.\n\nOverall, it's a great place to eat and I definitely will visit again.", "First off, thanks Yelp! 4.5 stars in 7 reviews? What do you people eat? Air and water? \n\nI wouldn't take my dogs here (okay, I love them more than most people, but still... they would probably be content to gnosh down some viddles from this joint... if they ever received them). FSK THIS PLACE, IT SUCKS... now on to the more eloquent review:\n\nWhy would I not return? I'd love to tell you it was because the food sucked, but that's not the case. The problem is that 50 minutes after ordering I still didn't know what the hell it tasted like.\n\nOur waitress took the drink orders promptly. We ordered promptly. We were on lunch and expected to see food promptly. 25 minutes after we placed our order, we had nothing to show for it... I asked about the status of our meal and was given the classic,\"It's comin' right up, yours is next!\"\n\n5 minutes later I prompted our waitress again with a polite inquiry,\"We've got to be back to work within 30 minutes (we had a web presentation for which we could NOT be late). Her response this time was,\"Okay, 3 of the 4 plates are ready. I can bring those out now if you don't mind waiting on the fourth.\" I said sure... now this is where the story gets amazing.\n\nThe four plates were as follows:\nLiver and onions with corn and mashed potatoes.\nOyster Po-Boy with french fries\nJambalaya plate with fried chicken wings\nCheeseburger with bacon + candied Yams (substitution for french fries).\n\nWhich 3 out of four would you expect to see when she returned from the kitchen another 5 minutes later? Speculation was rampant amongst myself and the out of towners I took here on business (silly me).\n\nOut of the kitchen came everything but the hamburger, which I was assured would be right out. 10 minutes later I asked about the hamburger and was told that it would be right out. Finally, the burger arrived and it was a burger on a bun with veggies. No bacon. No cheese.\n\nI was the lucky recipient of the burger (at least my out of towners didn't have to go hungry... I picked this place based on Yelp! reviews, I should bare the burden most heavily). I immediately explained that this was not what I had ordered. At this point we had to be back at work in 8 minutes. The check was already paid for and I told them to keep the damned burger since they couldn't get anything right with it.\n\nSo I write this review with an empty belly and nothing but venom to spit for this place... the real kicker? Our waitress' excuse was,\"We've got someone new on the grill who's never dealt with a lunch rush before.\"\n\nReally? You're telling me that this incompetent individual at the grill couldn't comprehend the concept behind dropping a meat patty on the hot surface and flipping it once? Screw this place. I won't be back. They didn't even offer to discount the meal items we actually received. Screw this place... my empty belly encourages far more repugnant thoughts to wish on the establishment, but my brain's got me in check.", "I don't know...I ordered the crabellini and the watery pasta noodles thinned the sauce which already wasn't rich tasting as described in the menu. The crab cakes on the crabellini dish was meh at the best. Bland and smothered in oily sauce that it lost its valuable crispiness. I felt sick from overwhelming oil that did not mix with the watery pasta. Fried pickles was okay. Grilled catfish wasn't impressive. A side was a few steamed broccolis and bland potato salad. Noting fancy at quite fancy price. I give one more star for the nice waitress.", "hmmm, no I don't eat air and water (although that would work for some detox here and there)...truth is I had a great experience and a very surprising at that when I had lunch here (I was visiting UNO and this was the only walking distance restaurant around, not counting chain fast-foods). \n\nOrdered the special catfish and butter beans, plus a side salad. Everything was tasty and well cooked, but most importantly genius in its simplicity. The night before I was at Antoine's where a side salad priced at $8 tried too hard to be gourme-ish and it lost the battle big time. This one, just green leaves and a nice, light balsamic dressing reminded me what the purpose of a salad is or should be (not to mention that it was $2.95, but they ended up not charging me for it although the meal did not come with it in the menu). Honestly, you may not get why I am making such a big deal about a side salad, and I don't exactly know either.... but I must be unconsciously responding to a certain kind of restaurant-salad deprivation I have been subjected to throughout my years here in this wonderful, not very green-centric country.\n\nAs for the rest, well, I am no big fan of deep fried stuff, so I reluctantly ordered the catfish and I am so glad I did: it was crispy on the outside, flaky on the inside, not a hint of grease (wondered if it was baked! No, I don' t think it was, wishful thinking!). The butter beans were also very good...I had tried this before somewhere else and I didn't see the big deal, but I guess, butter beans are like grits: you appreciate them only once you taste some pretty good ones.\n\nThe service was excellent too, and the manager was greeting everybody and making sure all was running smooth.\n\nI think you should give this place a try" ]

Their original location is very popular in Washington, MO and I think selecting Maplewood as their STL location was a good move. My visit was on their fifth day of being opening and I so wish Yelp had a program where I could give a half star. My visit truly was between a 3 & 4 Star experience. As they get acclimated to their new city, I'm confident it will be a solid 4. \n\nI started out with a craft beer and was impressed that the bartender asked if I wanted my glass to be chilled or at room temperature. I choose chilled. As an accompaniment to my beer, I selected; Fried Brussels Sprouts from the \"Starters\" on their menu. They had a bourbon pickled mustard glaze and were tossed with bacon and parmesan. I instantly was in love. These are by far the best brussels sprouts I have had at a restaurant and I eat them all the time. \n\nThe sprouts were a large serving and easily could have been my meal, but dining at a new restaurant I pushed on. I was torn on what to order next. Should I do a burger? Or my favorite seafood, Sea Scallops? Or even better yet, Smoked Fried Hot Chicken? The \"hot\" chicken won. I couldn't say no to a chicken that is breaded in Red Hot Riplets. It was two boneless breast, covered in a crisp coating and served a side of smoked fried potatoes. The pickled pepper gravy, did not impress me, but I was okay with just enjoying the chicken. I like it when a \"hot\" chicken makes me sweat. For me, that it is a sign that it is good. \n\nI was too full to try a dessert, but I gotta come back and try the Gooey Butter Cheesecake Shake. It just sound delicious. \n\nThe ambiance is very minimalist. It's very stark and plain. When I return, if the burger and Sea Scallops win me over, I wont mind sitting in a minimalist environment. After all, I'm coming for the food, not the ambiance. \n\nAs time moves forward and word gets out that The Blue Duck has opened in Maplewood.

Beware, this chicken is really spicy! \n\nMy mom had the quiche as suggested by other reviewers and liked it.

Tender and full of flavor from the bourdon mustard seed glaze. Oh, my! The shirred egg was a pleasant surprise. The eggs were baked to perfection covering an layer of savory ham. The glazed carrots and smoked potatoes rounded out an unforgettable meal. My wife also raved about the chicken club sandwich which was the size of something she'd usually eat half of and save the rest for tomorrow's lunch but it was so tasty she couldn't resist finishing it off right there.

You can go wrong with anything on the menu!", "We went on a Sunday night and the place was not real busy but the server was very friendly and quick to get our drinks and order. My husband had the burger and chips and I had the quiche with spinach and feta cheese. Both were very good. My daughter had the duck sandwich and her husband had the spicy chicken. They also really enjoyed their meals. The side dishes were, as they say comfort food with a flair, and it was a very nice change of pace. We will go back, I want to try the duck sandwich next time.", "As another reviewer pointed out the pork chop entree is pretty amazing. Actually probably one of the best I have had ANYWHERE that I've been. Everything on the plate tastes good and it all goes together perfectly. I will be going back just to get that every time probably. I want to try something else but the pork chop entree is so good not sure I even care to. Had the corn bread for an appetizer. It was pretty good and the apple butter that came with it was delicious. Can't wait to go back.", "Had a solid good meal here on a Saturday night. Apps: Falafel, Brussel Sprouts, and cornbread. Desserts: Vegan Strawberry Cheesecake and Opera Cake. Beet LT sandwich was good, but needs to have a lot more beets. I'll be back for another try.", "We went to the Blue Duck for an early dinner on March 4th. It was not a good experience. To begin with,our server was not at all familiar with the menu. As this was our first visit we had several questions and he had no clue what they were serving.\n\nMy wife ordered the quiche of the day which was chicken enchilada. The serving was good sized, but lacked flavor and was dry as a bone with way too much pie crust. For her sides she ordered the yogurt parfait and soup of the day which was supposed to be tortilla soup. The server came back to say they were out of the yogurt parfait (it was only 5:30). As an alternative she ordered the chow chow. The server described this dish as \"like coleslaw\". He had no idea what it was. When the dinner arrived and my wife tasted the soup she asked what it was (expecting it to be tortilla soup) and the server said it was some kind of golden beet soup. When my wife pointed out that the chalk board said the soup of the day was tortilla soup, he said they ran out of that and somebody forgot to change it. The sign still wasn't changed when we left. Needless to say she didn't eat the soup. She hates beets.\n\nI ordered the blue cheese burger with deviled egg potato salad. The burger was over-seasoned to the point it was down right salty and the blue cheese was a runny mess. The potato salad was tasty but it was a runny mess also. \n\nWhen the check came, we were up-charged for the side they didn't have and the soup they ran out of. I asked the server if he had even looked at the check?\n\nOverall, it was lousy service, disappointing food and not a great dining experience. And the ambience one might expect was absent. We won't be going back." ]

[ "Some of the best sushi I've ever eaten. The wait staff was great. The sushi chef came out to check how our meal was. When we told him how much we loved it he brought us four extra pieces of octopus. The volcano roll was the best variation I had ever had of it. My wife always goes with the basic Phillie roll, but her eyes lit up when she ate the first piece. With tip it cost us about $75. Well worth it.", "Really good sushi and wait staff was fabulous. The price was reasonable too. About the only negative was that for some reason, the place had a really strong odor of pine sol. It was a little distracting from an otherwise great experience.", "The best sushi I've ever had. \nVery fresh, great varieties. I didn't know what to order and the waitress (Becky) suggested the Sassy Mexican, which is now, my favorite roll! I also suggest the Tampa Roll. \nMy BF got the chicken fried rice and win win noodles. We liked the fried rice better, but the win win noodles were still good. \nSeriously, I crave IRB Sushi... So good!!", "Best sushi I have ever eaten. Very awesome service and great price. Made second reservation for last night of spring break. Kid friendly", "Let me start by disclosing that I am a sushi snob. I have not found a sushi restaurant in Tampa Bay area that I love. To me, once you have had what I call 'big city\" sushi, in NY, Vegas, DC, Cali, it's just hard to eat the local stuff again. However, I don't live there and the places I love are absolutely outrageously expensive, so...\n\nIRB Sushi is on my top 3 for local sushi, mainly because the fish is just so fresh and delicious. I'm talking very high quality, it comes very close to that big city sushi clean fresh flavor that I love. This is not your average run of the mill sushi: the tuna has been so red, so clean. Yellowtail when it is the least bit old gets such a strong flavor, but their yellowtail has been light and delicious every single time. A sign on the wall says they fly some of their fish in from Hawaii. But there are some fairly important elements that they could work on in this place to really get it right, and it frustrates me to eat this really delicious fish and know they are so close. For example, the chefs are not consistent and just not real sushi chefs, they are kids. So the cuts are uneven sometimes. other times great. I've eaten there 5 times and only seen the same chef in there on 2 occasions. Some chefs drown the rolls in sauce, so I always ask for light sauce. And the decor is close, they tried with some really cute Asian looking booths, nice red colored fabric draped, but the bathroom and the carpet are sooo run down--- the decor makes you feel you are in a hole-in-the-wall sushi joint with 3 day old fish. Their fish is sooo good, bring up the rest of the place to this standard. The rolls are creative and fun, the Crunchy roll fantastic, every roll I've tried was amazing (with light sauce). My complaint on the rolls is each of them has either cream cheese or is fried. With their great fish, they do not have to mask it in fried batter or cream cheese, and sushi eaters want some healthy options. The servers are nice, but again they are just kids and doing a job. This is evident throughout the Crabby Bill's family - not bad service, just a high turnover and not GREAT service, a very lax style. We have been served hot plates to eat our sushi on, this is a very basic No-No. I've had sushi over warm rice, bringing the fish up to a warm temp. Ew. \n\nInsider tip: look all around the place for the various special rolls posted on the wall that aren't on the menu, there are some great ones. (they should print these out for us)\n\nSo though I have some issues, I don't want to give the impression I don't like the place, because I obviously keep going back and leaving having eaten some delicious sushi! I just wish Crabby's had hired 1 or 2 very experienced chefs and cleaned up the place a little more.", "Sushi is very fresh, but their options for rolls is extremely limited. Almost every roll they have comes with cream cheese or fried fish or both. I had the tuna tataki and the pad Thai. The tuna was overcooked and came swimming in some kind of really, watery sauce. The pad Thai was okay, kind of dry and not tossed well.", "I have to admit I struggled to write this review. Let me preface this with the fact I have eat sushi in Japan, San Fran, DC, etc. We also host visitors from Japan from time to time and feel I have developed sense of taste for great sushi, that being said I am usually hard on sushi places. Most are owned by koreans or americans and their chefs just do not have an appreciation for shari, which is really the basis for excellent sushi and sashimi.\nWe ordered an assortment of of sashimi and rolls. While the fish itself was exceptionally fresh, the shari was horrid. Portions were sizeable and prices were decent. I certain do not feel we over paid...but the overall quality was not that good for this sushi aficionado. I think the average american would enjoy this place..unless of course you have had sushi prepared by a Japanese chef that trained 10yrs, then you will be disappointed.\n\nWould I go back again if I were in the area? Probably. But I wouldnt go out of my way to do so.", "Another sister place of Crabby Bills. I swear these people own the whole block. Like everyone of the Crabby Bill related restaurants Nothing is OMG fantastic but everything is good enough at a good price that keeps you coming back time and time again. This is true of IRB Sushi nothing spectacular but good enough. SOlid 3 rating is appropriate.", "If you are looking for fast service then go to McDonals. But if you are looking for good sushi and layback beach place this is it!! We go a lot on Wed nights for happy hour 4 to 6. Oh oh soo good....", "Update 7 months later. \nI've been coming out 1-2x a month the past 7 mos, and most of my concerns below have been resolved. The chefs are now the same chefs every time, and their cuts prove that they are honing their craft. And they are friendly. I have not had warm rice or a warm plate any more. The servers are more knowledgeable, and settling in and more friendly. (ask for Cheryl) \nThe manager is around every time I am there, interacting with the tables, genuinely taking pride in the establishment. \nMost importantly, the fish is still very very fresh, without exception every time I am here, the fish itself is high quality. I have tried a handful of other similarly priced/styled sushi places locally, and they just aren't getting the quality of fish that IRB Sushi is getting. \nYou can opt out of cream cheese in a roll, no problem, just ask.\nWhen you ask for light sauce, I do think they are some of the best rolls I have had.\n\nSushi happy hour is quite a bargain if you can make it between 4-6p tues-thur.\n\nThey still have these mystery secret rolls available not on the menu, you have to ask or read the signs in the place.

[ "I just recently made a trip out to Texas from California and happened upon this place.\n\nI love truckstop diners and roadside cafes, greasy spoons, breakfast hotspots and pretty much anyplace that serves traditional morning foods be they American breakfasts or any other part of the world (I've had an amazing Thai porridge that makes me want to travel half-way around the world just to get another bowl).\n\nThis is in fact the type of place that makes you want to return! So much so that I did. Originally I had planned to take Interstate 10 on the way to Texas and then take a more northerly route on the way back. Time constraints and a hankering for this place's delicious homemade biscuits and gravy make me take the same way back. I timed it out so that I could get breakfast at this place (which meant driving a bit later into the night than I should have... but totally worth it).\n\nThe servers were happy. I mean, that's odd to say I guess. Most times you'll say \"The servers were nice.\" or, \"The waitress was friendly.\" etc. Friendly and nice they certainly may have been, but I can't imagine a better way to start my day than with the infectious, genuine happiness of another human being.\n\nMy coffee cup never ran dry (important on a road trip). My eggs were perfectly cooked (I got over-medium which some places seem to have trouble with... either they come out over-hard or far too runny to be considered anything other than over-easy). The bacon was crisp but still chewy, which meant it hadn't been drying out in a pile for hours.\n\nThe last thing I'll say is that the prices are the most shocking part of this place. I got a \"steal\" my first meal by getting one of the early morning specials (served until 9am or 9:30 I believe). I saved enough and was enjoying my \"vacation food\" that I decided it was appropriate to have dessert with breakfast. Apple Pie ala mode. While it wasn't fresh Apple Pie, it was freaking awesome. Having to choose between the \"fresh\" Apple Pie I had in New Mexico and the frozen reheated pie this place kept on hand, I'd choose this place's pie any day of the week. Come to think of it, this pie was better than the last home made apple pie I had a few months ago. Maybe they do make it and just don't serve enough of it, so they freeze it. Anyway, I digress.\n\nIf you're on the outskirts of Tucson you have to have breakfast here! If you're on the opposite side of the city or still a ways away on the interstate, HOLD OUT for this joint!", "Old Times is amazingly great! The waitresses seem to really enjoy their work and are constantly around to check on you, refill your water/ice tea and will bring a carafe of tea if you are really thirsty. \n\nThe menu is so diverse and full of diner/truck stop food! Huge, I mean HUGE portions of food. The breakfasts are amazing (they are open until 2 pm) real potatoes, massive eggs, just a ton of food. I've had the Chef Salad for lunch and it's a huge pile of lettuce, eggs, turkey and ham, just an onslaught. Breakfast omelettes that go on and on. You can find shrimp here, eggs benedict, chili omelettes, Italian style. So good! Huge real pieces of texas toast.\n\nAnd the prices are so low for the quality and quantity. \n\nIt's relaxed here and nice. Lots of families come in. Feels like you're in a house, and it sure seems like it was a house once. There's a back patio for smoking.\n\nWonderful place for a hearty meal. Can't wait to try their burgers and sandwiches and soups. Nothing has dissatisfied me or any of the people I've brought with me. Huevos Ranchos hmmm. \n\nThe reviewer who noted the bathrooms: not sure, never seen a problem in at least 10 visits to this place. Clean everywhere and it's been operating for years.", "Seriously, the name of this place sums it all up. This place looks really, really old! The food however is very decent and at a good price. It's your simple, all american breakfast. The favorite thing I ordered was the silver dollar pancakes.....soooooo good!", "Food isn't bad. They DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ANYTHING! So, something like a \"Grand Slam\" from Dennys that everyone else serves on earth, Old Times does not. So the same breakfast exeeds $9.50. This place is no where good enough to be so staunch about such things. \n\nALSO, it's filthy. It's a dive place which is fine, but it's just filthy dirty, carpets, it needs paint, walls are filthy dirty and have been for years. No attention to cleanliness, DOES concern me about the back of the house as well. Never gotten sick there, but one would wonder why not.", "The restaurant and both restrooms were filthy and were saturated in a foul smell. The food was sub-par, ...barely edible, which may explain why they serve large portions (quantity over quality) . The service staff were as friendly as they could be having to withstand the stank emanating from this dumpster of a restaurant.", "This is a pretty good little place, I would give it more stars but there are too many things that make me say \"next time I might go somewhere else\". I have been here twice because it is really close to my work and convenient but here is the positive and needs improvements: \n\nPositive: The prices are pretty reasonable, the portion sizes are generous, the food reminds you of something you would get in your grandma's kitchen\n\nNeeds Improvement: They are so super slow, the place looks really dirty (not sure if it is just all the antiques that don't look like they get dusted or if it is just not clean), the people who work there seem friendly enough at first but then it is almost like they forget you exist after your first encounter with them, the place needs to be updated (carpet, light switches... they were cracked and broken, I mean come on how much do those cost? I thought about going out and buying them new ones, chairs seemed like they were something I would have seen when I was growing up in the late 80's)\n\nOverall I will probably go back because I dont have to actually eat their because they do pick up and like I said it is really close to my work.", "Hanging out with friends this morning at this fine eating establishment.

We arrived at 1:15 and weren't sure if we were going to be served because of the closing time at 2 o'clock. The service was pretty slow. We ended up having to eat pretty quickly to be finished by the time they closed. Coleslaw had something like Thousand Island dressing on it rather than coleslaw dressing. Fries were good.

[ "Outstanding Sushi! I have been to many sushi restaurants in the area this one is by far the best! Great atmosphere, and great patio dining on a gorgeous day. Try the Mizu special roll....you will not be disappointed!", "I have found it, after years of searching I found it. \n\nIt's no surprise that the worst sushi dinner of my life was in St. Louis. Why did I even bother trying sushi I knew would be bad? When you're almost 1,000 miles from the nearest ocean, how can any raw fish be \"fresh\" or \"good\"?! But it was 99F out with equal humidity, and raw fish sounded refreshing. I did not exercise the best in judgment that night. \n\nNot only was the meal terrible, it was expensive! Here's a breakdown of my meal:\n\nLarge Asahi - $3.50, it's beer, it's good. \nYellow Tail - $5.95, it tasted like frozen nothing.\nJapanese Snapper - $5, it tasted like frozen watery, nothing.\nMackerel - $3.95, it tasted like frozen, watery, fishy, nothing.\nSweet Shrimp - $7, this was the only item that seemed okay.\nFresh Water Eel - $5.95, hard to mess it up when it's saturated in unagi sauce.\nClam - $4.95, this was the chewiest, toughest, most disgusting \"clam\" I've ever eaten. \nFatty Tuna - $15.95, pure robbery! The color was dark red and the flesh had zero fat. \nSalmon Egg - $5.95, mushy, slimy, and no satisfying pop.\nSmoked Salmon - $5.95, yeah I can put some lox on dry rice too.\n\nAfter Tax, before tip - $70.\n\nFor that price I could have, and should have, walked the extra mile to White Castle and gotten 120 burgers for the same price. \n\nIf you think this place is good, or has any merit as a sushi bar, you need help.", "As a sushi restaurant in the midwest, I'm a big fan of Mizu's over other restaurants such as Wasabi, Tachibana, Fuji's, etc. \nMizu has a completely different ambiance, the dim lighting and spacious dining makes it less traditional-Japanese and more modern and chic. And since they are relatively new (opened summer 2008 I believe) they are very clean. \n\nI have been there a few times now and I have to the the Sex and the City, Hurricane, and their deep friend rolls are my favorites. Their appetizers are also great (monkey brains- spicy stuffed mushrooms and soft shell crab). Their fish are surprisingly very fresh for being so far from the ocean. But if you'd like to try something different, their Korean dishes such as their Bulgogi and BBQ ribs (prepared in a Korean traditional way) are also a good way to go.\n\nAs for service, the servers and owner Eugene cannot be any more friendly. They immediately recognize you if you go more than twice and they treat you like family.", "My review: Mizu is pretty good and relatively cheap (for sushi)\n\nThis is a rant to the first guy to review Mizu.\n\nTo sum up your review: I'm from California and sushi sucks in St. Louis because you don't live near an ocean.\n\nMan do I love those, thanks Eli for your insightful look into how you'rre from California and that makes you cool and a sushi expert, by the way, what is Lawndale, CA anyway? \n\nI feel I can comment on this as I lived by the ocean in CA for years so I once too was cool and knew the taste of magical California sushi. Let's take a look at the fish you ordered Eli, how many of those fish came off the docks in Lawndale? Wait Lawndale doesn't have docks, but regardless, looks like none to maybe one, so that awesome sushi you're eating in Lawndale, is yes, wait for it..the same freaking fish flown in! You see, they have these things called planes now, what they do is, they load a plane to a glitzy metropolis called Lawndale and another for St Louis. Our plane probably arrives a few hours later, so you do have us there. Some of the best sushi restaurants are in NYC (I've been to this magical place) and guess what pal, they ain't pulling those fish out of the Hudson River.\n\nTo be fair, I have no basis on Lawndale sushi, because I have never been to Lawndale, let alone hear of Lawndale. I work in Santa Monica some times, perhaps I will avoid those places to try the magical Lawndale Sushi that tastes like you're eating it out of Zeus' butthole.\n\nPerhaps you can bring that cool yellow hat, I am very interested in it as my sister loved Strawberry Shortcake and it seems you shop at the same hat shop as her. I guess it must be a California store.", "Ambiance - Perfect. With a high ceiling and slightly darkened lighting, it feels like an upper class sushi house. The bar has large flat screens to allow access to those oh so special blues/cardinal nights. \n\nLocation - 5/5 There is street parking as well as parking structures all around. Although it is quite surprising to think you would find this little gem of a restaurant on the side of the street.\n\nService - 6/5 Perhaps I'm being bias because I am asian. However, there is a cultural familiarity that I can sense when I walk into this place. The heart behind the staff is that of servitude and humility. This is expected in asian culture but is also welcome to see they bring it to their restaurant. Being born and raised in America I have both affinity for different parts of all kinds of culture.\n\nPrice - 5/5 For what you are getting the price makes sense. Now I am more of a dollar menu guy to be honest. However, I did not feel any regret paying what I did at Mizu. The food was well worth it and comparatively it beats out much more expensive sushi restaurants.\n\nFood - 5/5 My mom ran a sushi restaurant in Naperville, IL for a long time. I understand the difficulty of sushi in the midwest. It is true that coastal sushi is the best. That being said, if you want sushi in the St. Louis area, Mizu is it, bar none. The sushi itself is excellently prepared. I got to speak with the sushi chefs for a while during a break in the Cardinals game and the amount of preparation time almost doubled the time the chefs at my mom's place worked and it shows. I have had over $400 worth of dishes from here over my many visits and I have to say the thing that sets Mizu apart from other places is the inventiveness of the chefs. They strive to try new combinations and displays to entice the taste buds and eyes. This is not a fast food sushi spot.\n\nFinal Thoughts - I truly enjoy my several visits to Mizu. The kicker for Mizu is the inventiveness of the chefs as well as the polite welcoming staff that work there. I would suggest since it is in the metropolis area that this is a perfect spot for business professionals that need a break during lunch or after work as well as those blue collar folks (like me) that sometimes crave a bit of different culture and fun.", "I've been in the 'Lou for almost a whole week now! Having relocated due to my husband's transfer and promotion, we are now permanent St. Louisers or St. Louisians... whatever you want to call us.\n\nTo be honest, I'm not sure how I felt about the move from the suburbs of Washington, DC to the Midwest. I just keep hoping for the best.\nI kept waiting for a sign... for something to tell me, you're not alone... you belong. That's when we stumbled upon Mizu, conveniently located right downstairs from my loft!\n\nI'm not gonna lie. I was disappointed when I read Eli's review. I started doubting how likable this place was, I started thinking to myself, do you even KNOW sushi?! But the fact of the matter is, everyone's a critic these days, and sometimes, it's unfair to review a place after just eating there for one lunch or one dinner. Which is why... I can review Mizu, because it has become my staple this week!\nOkay, okay... I'm not a sushi master, but I do know what tastes good and their rolls are delicious!\n\nBesides their quick, friendly service and their warm, clean and high ceilinged-loft style decor, their food is actually really good!\nTheir appetizers consist of your traditional edamame and fried calamari, as well as soft shell crab, Monkey Brain- lightly fried mushrooms stuffed with spicy tuna and crabmeat, and my fave, the Fire Cracker- spicy tuna mixed with chopped tomato and served with deep fried egg roll chips- spicy, savory and sweet all on one dish to allow a beautiful symphony in your mouth!!\n\nAs for their Rolls, I've had their Crunch Roll- spicy tuna, avacado with little bits of fried panko on top- twice, their Ram's Roll- spicy tuna, cucumber, avacado with avacado on top, their SamurI Roll- shrimp tempura, avacado with kani salad on top. None of them disappointed.\nIn addition to their rolls, they also offer Nigiri sushi, lovely selections of bento boxes, salads, rice and noodle dishes and \"dinner specials\" consisting of Teriyaki selections and Bulgogi-type meats.\n(my stomach is growling... just to let you know)\n\nAnd... get this! Happy Hour is 2:30pm - 7:00pm, Monday through Friday! Half price appetizers, beer and wine! WHUATTT?! I know. I thought the same thing. It's not even like Mizu is pricey: their appetizers range from $4.50 to $8.95 and their rolls range from $6.95 to $10.95.\n\nI've also ordered take out from Mizu. How great is it to hear that your food will be ready in 5 minutes? That's pretty amazing!\n\nAll in all, I give Mizu two thumbs up! Thanks for the warm welcome!", "Bottom-line-up-front (BLUF)--If you live downtown or nearby, you can't go wrong with Mizu.\n\nI'm gonna pile on the Eli-is-a-douche-bag bandwagon before I start my review. I've lived in Japan (and been treated to sushi elite), CA, RI, VA, DC, FL, TN, MO and IL and enjoyed sushi in every one of my adopted cities at a local favorite sushi bar/restaurant. I've also enjoyed sushi in dozens of cities around the world as a one-time visitor. What I have found, is that sushi is sushi is sushi...and it's all pretty great (save for my first ever visit to Sushi-go-round in Sasebo, Japan...which almost ruined sushi for me forever). \nI have spent over $100 for one or as little as $29 for an all-you-can-eat experience...and it was all just about delicious.\n\nI will say, that because of my above opinion, once I find a place that is close by and relatively low-cost, I'm not going to be too anxious to run all over the city looking for a better place. They are all within small degrees of each other and driving 15 miles for minutely better but pricier isn't going to do it for me.\n\nIf you walk in the door with a chip on your shoulder, you're gonna find a way to be a hater. So...stay home Eli.\n\nMizu is great to outstanding. I've never been to Wasabi or Drunken Fish. I suspect they are good/great too. I just don't want to wait in line or drive 5 miles and sweat parking when I can walk or cab downtown and find ample parking. \n\nMizu goes way above and beyond to ensure a great dining experience. As mentioned, the daily Sushi Happy Hour means half-price drinks and apps from 2:30-7 p.m. Large bottles of Asahi or Can of Sapporo for $3.50 is a great draw.\n\nPlenty of interesting original rolls or standard sushi items. Everything tastes great to me and I have brought in out of town sushi fans and they loved it too.\n\nDarn it...I'm feeling a sushi crave coming on.", "The most impressive part of Mizu is the excellent hospitality and service. The wait staff is as good as it gets. The atmosphere is great too. Good music playing, but not too loud so it's easy to have a conversation. They also have a big screen projection tv. \n\nThe food was good and not too expensive. I got the crunch roll which was very good and the tempura udon which was HUGE and good. The owners are Korean so they serve Korean bbq as well. The short ribs were good but too fatty for my liking. \n\nBe sure to ask for the spaghetti pretzels. They're good and also fun to munch on before your food arrives.", "I am a sushi fanatic and was so please with the atmosphere, service, and quality of the food. It was the best sushi i have ever eaten and I will continue to dine here!", "I lovvvve this place! The atmosphere is so open and comfy! And the sushi is awesome!! Not too pricey at all and the appetizers are half off before 7. We got the fried calamari and it wasnt chewy like some others ive had. And it comes with this sweet sesame sauce. Yum. You can also get any roll deep fried for a dollar more. We took advantage of this and got a philly roll fried with the california and alaska roll. The salmon is so fresh and tasty! And service was soooo fast! I think we got our food in 5 minutes! 3 rolls in 5 minutes!! I love this place. Hands down. And our waiter was extremely helpful and friendly. :)" ]

Yes, please! Staff is friendly. Food is good. Eat here.", "I loved the garlic naan, butter chicken, and saag paneer. The food had a lot of spices used, which I really enjoy. Service was good, fast & courteous. Will be back for sure. \n\n$10 for all you can eat lunch & a drink.", "Amazing Indian food in downtown Indy. The food is first rate and very fresh. Great service.", "love love love that there is a new indian place downtown! yippee!!!\n\nthe food is great! a nice selection on the lunch buffet both times I've visited. both veggie and meat lovers will be happy! garlic naan is to die for. nice thick and tasty paneers and masala. great opportunity to try some new dishes such as turnip or cabbage or chickpeas.\n\nVERY nice and prompt service. hopefully they're working on atmosphere, but everything else is top notch! don't let the \"interesting\" storefront from the previous owners scare you off!\n\nhopefully I can try something off of the large menu soon, but the buffet is a win!", "Finally! Good Indian food in downtown Indianapolis. Hilarious placement by the bars though haha.", "Nice addition to downtown in the former Sushi on the Rocks site. Though I will forever miss my sushi spot it's nice to have a buffet so close to my daily work digs. I am highly disturbed that they replaced the previous interior with what they have now. It's pretty boring and bland and they have flat screens. Just weird overall vibe with strange lighting. But hey. You're not here to hear about the interior. Food- overall got about 3.5 stars. It was decent but I still prefer the Indian Place over off of Delaware Street. They do have a lot of choices and the tandoori chicken was pretty stellar. I'll be back soon as you can't beat the price and quality of the food.", "I love me some Indian food, a friend said this new place was good so I gave it a try. Pretty comparable to India Garden, I would say it's slightly better, I think the price point is the same. The only thing that's kinda off is its location, you got to know it's there cause it's where a lot of bars are. All and all a really good buffet, definitely worth a try if you like Indian food." ]

[ "Went to this new location during the it's 1st week . 40 minute wait with a text message to tell us the table was ready. We could walk around the mall while waiting. Big crowd but very well managed. Our server, Christa, was fabulous, always attentive to our needs. The food came as as ordered fairly quickly for such a large crowd. We had the BBQ Chicken sandwich and the Teriyaki Chicken sandwich and substituted for sweet potato fries. Both sandwiches were very good, and the fries great. Had a second helping of fries.", "My first time at a Red Robbin -- and this was opening weekend in Clearwater.\n\nThe place was crowded, but they will send you a text when your table is ready, so you are fee to walk around the mall area (just watch to bad cellular reception areas).\n\nOnce inside the service was good and the food came quickly even with a big crowd. The burgers were very good, and lots of choices. All burgers come with bottomless steak fries -- and they are generous with them. Some speciality drinks are bottomless too, including a Barqs rootbeer float, which is only $3.19 for as many as you want--and they even offer you one to go.\n\nThere are lots of non-burger options too, including chicken, salads, and even hummus.\n\nBiggest problem here is parking. This end of the mall has been really over-developed at the expense of parking spaces. There is a lot of free parking, but you might not be very close.\n\nThe prices are reasonable, but not cheap -- remember this is not fast food. All in all, a great experience and we will be back!", "Location just opened and this was our first time ever at a Red Robin. As packed as it was for lunch, the wait was only about 15 minutes for 2 of us. We were sat at a table barely a foot away from the table next to us, so the lack of privacy was a little uncomfortable.\n\nBeing vegetarians, we were pleased that there were 2 different veggie burgers (Morningstar Veggie or Boca Vegan) that could be subbed on any burger! I tried the just the regular Veggie which had carmelized onions and zucchini on it....delicious! Next time I will try subbing a veggie patty on one of the other burgers. Fries were also fresh and piping hot. Was a big portion, so I had leftovers for dinner.\n\nMaria was our server and was terrific, especially given how busy it was. Overall, we thought it was a little pricey - cost us almost $40 for 1 appetizer, 2 sodas, 2 burgers and tip. But we will be back since the food was good and it is difficult to find restaurants that have such great vegetarian options....which says a lot since this is a burger place. :)", "I've been to Red Robins before, first time at this one. It was packed!! 45 min to an hour wait. They took our name and my cell number. They NEVER called!!! So don't brother leaving your number.", "This location just opened few weeks ago and the service is wonderful. I've been here twice now and the staff is on top of things. The food is wonderful and it's a fun time. I think it was a fantastic addition to Countryside Mall.", "Went to Red Robin yesterday afternoon after seeing Resident Evil: Retribution. Wonderful!!! Best hamburgers we've all ever eaten!!\n\nThe hamburgers are not the biggest out there, but they are the tastiest! The steak fries were hot and taste real good with that Red Robin special seasoning (that we purchased, by the way, for $3 for a huge bottle). The sweet tea was very good! (It's hard to find good sweet tea out there!) \n\nMy son got one of the beer milkshakes and he was completely impressed. He actually wasn't expecting it to taste so good. He did say that he'd ask them to leave off the caramel next time around though, it was a bit much as far as flavor clashing. They did tell us that they also do a milkshake using Bailey's and that was tempting, but my hubby was driving and I didn't wanna drink it in front of him...lolll. The milkshakes are $4.95.\n\nIt wasn't crowded and since it was so cold in the mall, we opted to sit outside. The outside patio was nice and clean and the server kept regular check on us. Our food was at out table in less than 15 minutes, good and hot!\n\nI had the double cheeseburger and steak fries for $6.99, which as far as I could tell is one of the cheaper meals, but it wasn't disappointing!", "I have always heard those weird commercials that say hmm Red Robin with the little chime at the end and have always wanted to give it a try. I was happy when they opened this location close to home and couldn't wait to check it out. My party of 4 all went with Bacon cheddar burgers which comes with unlimited steak fries. I love steak fries. The location is cool with the new Bar Louie next door. Overall regardless of the long wait it was great and we will return.", "Don't get the smaller tavern burger! It's a different patty that taste like the 49 cents McDonald's special.", "I love a good burger and Red Robin makes a fairly good burger. But I have trouble giving a restaurant that serves its food in plastic baskets and charges 10-12 dollars a meal more than 3 stars. \n\nI ordered a burger with a special set of toppings and it came out exactly as ordered. My wife the vegetarian even was able to get a vegan burger (made by boca) with avacado and other toppings. The food was delivered almost to quickly. We were barely able to enjoy our drinks before they arrived. \n\nOverall we had a good experience and we just wanted something cheap and quick so it is a winner for that reason.", "As many times as I've seen the commercial for Red Robin in Orlando, we don't have a location. I happened to be in Clearwater for a mini getaway and saw one at the Mall. Incidentally, I had to try it. Unfortunately, I was not impressed. I ordered the Red Robin Classic (I think that was what it was called). I like other burger establishments better. But glad I satisfied my curiosity." ]

[ "My absolute favorite restaurant. I love the atmosphere- right on the water, outdoor eating with cute lights. Sometimes a band plays. They have a killer selection of exotic drinks, and an awesomely broad dinner menu. Great seafood dishes! Decorations- adorable.\nTip: don't miss out on the beautiful photo-op by the large palm tree. I have dozens of photos with the sunsetting behind me. The photos almost look fake. Take it all in while you're there. Wonderful place.", "This is one of my favorite Key West style seafood restaurants in the area. It's very laid back and the food is outstanding. On weekends they usually have a Jimmy Buffet style or Reggae band playing in the huge outdoor deck area. They have a total of 3 outdoor bars if you count the one by the pool which might be for hotel guests only but I don't think they care. This is a great hotel/resort located right on the water. Great scenery and the price is always right. Check it out if you're in the area!", "This is a very nice pool bar and restaurant at IRB. the food was way better than expected, and its a great place to watch the boats cruising down the waterway. The pool is nice and crowded every weekend. You can come by car or boat.", "Great place to eat. It is one of our 2 favorites when we stay in Tampa area every year. They have a band or acoustic guitar. Great outdoor sunsets with a fantastic view. Food & service is great. Ask for the drinks strong & they will blow your mind. We have been enjoying it for years.", "Great service, great food, and great atmosphere! Fish fry on Fridays are endless and you can try it several ways!", "My husband, 4 year old son and I stayed at the Holiday Inn because we were in the area to see a Spring Training game. We arrived late in the afternoon on a Fri. and decided to have dinner in the hotel as we've never been to that area before and decided it would be the quickest thing. It was great weather so we decided to sit out on the deck area which was quite large. They had a live band and a bar outside as well. When we went out, we asked the bartender if it was okay to sit anywhere and she said yes~someone would be right with us. We sat by the water which had a nice view. It was the only empty table by the water. We sat there for a good 15-20 minutes~there were plenty of waitresses that kept walking by to service other tables but nobody bothered to ask us if we'd been helped yet. It's like we were invisible! Mind you, we were ready to eat as we'd just had a 4 hour car ride! Finally, my husband got up and asked the girl at the podium if we could get some menus. She basically came over and threw menus and utensils on the table, said nothing and walked away. We sat there for another 15-20 minutes and still nobody came to our table! I had had enough when a new party just got seated behind us and they got service right away! I was about to get up and go complain when my husband flagged down a passing waitress and asked if anybody was going to take our order. She came over right away but did not apologize or introduce herself~just made some excuse of how they were switching shifts. That does not make up for over the half an hour we were sitting there!! However, after that the food and drinks came right away and she was good with our son. That was seriously the WORST service I have EVER experienced! The food was good and they had a decent menu. The food runners seemed very inexperienced also on how to serve food~they seemed quite timid. Everybody working there seemed pretty young so maybe that had something to do with it.\nThe next night, we got back a bit late from the baseball game so we decided to give the restaurant another try. This time we decided to eat inside. It was pretty empty but filled up before we left. The service was much quicker and again the waitress was very good with our son.\nWe let the front desk know of our experience before we checked out. The girl said the manager wasn't in but she would let him know as they like to receive feedback.\nWould've given a better score but the lack of service we received on our first night there really left a bad taste in our mouth.", "It was a hit or miss for us. I ordered medium well hamburgers and got well done. Our table mates, who joined us 15mins later, ordered hamburgers as well and their order was perfect. The very next day we were back for a table of 20, there were no orders sent back and staff was on the ball. Be sure to get the coconut bread (we think its cake), it's tasty. \n\nIt's in a great location, on the water, in the inter-coastal waterway. They have 2 restaurants, indoor and outdoor with live music. A large swimming pool with a tiki bar. For sure next time, we will stay the night.", "My God stay away. Stay away for your children, stay away for yourselves.\n\nStay away from the Friday night fish fry. FOOD POISONING. My wife and I joined some friends here for their Friday grouper special....it has become apparent these special fish fries are to push fish that is turning so they don't waste product. What a mistake we made. \n\nAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the poisoning was right on time...6 hours later we were taking turns for the toilet. \n\nHmmmm...exactly six hours prior my wife and I ate \"fresh\" fish at Jimmy Guanas. Coincidence...? There is no excuse in 2011 for restaurants to be sickening people - there are way too many regs to follow.\n\nOf note, the grouper was horrible.

[ "#SomethingsHeatingUp. That's what Rostizado's social media's been taunting us with. This whole \"something's heating up\" at Mercer Building has gone long enough and now you can actually go gorge yourself on Tres Carnales' latest venture, a modern Latin-American rotisserie, focusing on local produce! Don't worry though, there's still #TacoForThePeople over a few blocks.\n\nFirstly, I apologize for the lack of photos of the space. I just can't focus when there's an open kitchen and a full rotisserie of local Four Whistle Farm pork butts and chickens rotating in front of me! Seating is divided out into unique dining areas, some with long tables, a living room couch area, a sectioned off area for VIPs surrounded by a glass wall and where we were seated - the bar-style table in front of the kitchen. Just the way I like it. Who wouldn't want to be in front of all the action? Decor is an amazing mix of mid-century with old school televisions, books, and memorabilia; grand wall murals; outstanding woodwork. Cozy and welcoming! \n\nWe started off with a couple of \"Entradas\" or appetizer dishes, all running at $16 but large enough to share with a group. Dani had given us the heads up that they only had two ceviche dishes left from last night's friends and family soft opening... so we pounced on that. If you don't like lime juice, then the cured Chilean sea bass might not be your cup of tea. You can tone down the lime juice with a bite of the orange slices and avocados and once in awhile you'll get a hit of the habanero chiles. For me, it was ah-maaaaazing. Really enjoyed all the different notes and textures! There's a reason why there was only two dishes left.\n\nCousin numero uno eyed the smoked salmon sopes, which conveniently came in threes! I'm not even the biggest fan of sopes, mostly because every time I've tried them, it's been a mushy corn flour mash with a slightly under-fried texture. Not these ones! Crisp exterior, light and airy inside full of flavor. The tequila cured smoked salmon and avocado cream spread were killer! I could probably order a few plates of these and just call it a night.\n\nBut what do you do when you want to try everything? You order platters. Rostizado has a platter for two with a combination of their rosti-pollo (chicken) and rosti-puerco (pork), served up with some rost-papa (potatoes) and tortillas for wrapping.\n\nPlatter for two is a slight exaggeration as none of us thought that we could finish it if there were only two of us. Then again we're three small Asian girls who already ordered appetizers. And wanted dessert. But we went all out anyways and went for it. Leftovers are your friend! \n\nThe Rosti-Pollo is a dry rubbed chicken, roasted for an hour - an hour and a half, until crispy on the outside. Huge flavor on the skin, so much so that I wished rubs would penetrate more into the meat! So delicious though and in addition to the pasilla-tomatillo salsa, it can do some serious damage to you.\n\nAlongside our platter, cousin numero dos also ordered the rosti-puerco cemitas, or sandwich. It's the same pork on the platter, slow roasted and sliced to order. The pork was my favorite, packing a whole whack of flavor, seasonings, and spices. There's even a fresh chimichurri, a green Argentinean sauce, to top it all off.\n\nNo, I lie. What topped it all off was the pulled cheese! It wasn't oozing or anything but it was an awesome addition to the cemita! Drippings and a fresh sesame baked bun made the sandwich a home run in my books and also the best value for your wallet at $16. Like the platter, it was also served up with some roasted potatoes with roasted cloves of garlic (sooooo good!).\n\nNothing could stop us (or me) from ordering the churros con dulce de leche. I can honestly say that these are the best churros I've had. Ever. Crispy on the outside, perfectly cooked and slightly chewy on the inside. Dipped into the dulce de leche, it was AMAZEBALLS. Dani believes it's because of the Mexican cinnamon that they use. Maybe it's the fact that I can see my order of churros being made in the back corner to order. Or maybe they're just magical and we'll leave it at that. SO GOOD.\n\nSo so so happy that Rostizado is open now. A great addition to Edmonton's dining scene, wonderful staff and service for opening night (it was packed!). You need to try it out. For those on a budget, highly recommend their cemitas (sandwiches) as their rotisserie can run a little high. But for a family-style meal, you have to get the rotisserie! Will definitely be back for the pork and to try out the rest of the appetizer menu (the Albondigas, a meatball dish, looked amazing!). Save room for the churros, thank me later. They don't take reservations, so you better head on down for dinner before people figure out they're open. Lunch service will be starting Wednesday, August 12 in addition to dinner service. You can even order take out and expect the meal in a few minutes. Something's heating up all right.", "I drove from Vancouver to Edmonton earlier this week, and was told by all my friends here that I had to eat at Tres Carnales. \"Or, wait! Try their new restaurant!\" So, the new restaurant it was. \n\nI met three friends at 5:30pm and we were immediately seated. Our server gave us the spiel on how the menu worked and offered some great recommendations. We split an order of the bass ceviche, which was everything I'd hoped for and more. If you like citrus, you must order this dish. For my main, I had the Rosti-Puerco Cemita. I basically licked my plate clean. And even though I didn't know if I could fit in anything more, we got an order of churros for dessert. Split four ways, that was the best $2 dessert I've ever had.\n\nIf I lived here, this would be a regular stop for me. Go now and enjoy. :)", "Man, you know when you see someone's food pictures and all you want to do is run to that restaurant to try it? Welcome to my world. I saw Cin's pictures and couldn't get Rostizado's chicken/pork/churros out of my mind. Too bad the pictures were better than the meal we had. Not that Rostizado's is bad or anything - unfortunately, overpriced is the word that keeps popping into my mind.\n\nAs a group of 5, we decided to check out Rostizado's during their opening weekend (another bad idea as I generally wait for a restaurant to get the kinks out). We arrived at 6:30pm and were told that we had to wait for about 30 minutes. Not a big deal as they have two comfy couches to chill out at and you can order drinks/appetizers while you wait. They bring you out this small bowl of chick peas/nuts/other stuff (a satisfying bowl of bar snacks, if you will) that is SO good. I could have ate a couple bowls to myself...but I'm nice and shared it with the group.\n\nThe place itself is gorgeous and everything is open concept style. Take a peek at the kitchen where you can see the chickens roasting in the background. Wow. I also like how they use the old school vinyl's to play music. You are most definitely paying for the trendy, cool atmosphere.\n\nOther things - one friend pointed out the logo looks like it came from Tinder (that cracked me up) and the way the servers use iPads to take your order is very efficient but lacks a bit of warmth/customer service. As well, I found it odd how the server kept on having to come back to our table to refill our glasses for water. Why not just leave a bottle or two on the table, it would make life easier for everyone.\n\nWhile we waited, my friends ordered a couple bebidas (beer, lemon, and a couple of their specialty drinks) and perused the menu.\n\nFor food, we split our table in half for sharing and so that we could try a few more dishes off their menu.\n\n- Rosto-pollo ($32.00 half order) - one pair of friends shared this and had to order more tortillas. They weren't very impressed with the chicken but did consume all of it. No chance you're wasting $32.00 for half a chicken!\n- Chips and salsa ($10.00) - you get to select your two sauces. My friend went with the pico de gallo Yucateco and salsa de rabanitos. A nice dish to start our meal off.\n- Platter for 2 ($55.00) - combination of chicken and pork, roasted potatoes, and tortillas. We split this between the three of us. Again, they don't give you enough tortillas! We had to order more ($1.50 extra) and we also ordered a Manzano hot sauce (they charged $5.00! For a sauce.). You would think $55.00 would cover at least having enough tortilla wraps, but apparently not. The pork was great - tender, flavourful, just the right amount of fat to it but the chicken, we sadly weren't blown away by. It was good but it seemed like the rub/spice that they used didn't fully penetrate the whole chicken. The roasted potatoes were delicious though!\n- Roasted cauliflower ($13.00 for full order) - Chile de arbol, garlic, cumin, sea salt, lime juice and cilantro. It was nice to have a vegetable dish to go with all the meat we ordered. I like how they put whole pieces of roasted garlic in it! Yum.\n- Ceviche de robalo ($16.00) - Chilean sea bass in lime juice, habanero chilies (gave it a nice hint of spiciness to the ceviche), white onion, oranges and avocado. It was flavourful but the dish was TINY. It also randomly came with a small bowl of chips.\nChurros con dulce de leche ($8.00) - these were great. Churros came out piping hot. Nice crunchy texture. The dulce de leche sauce was good but seemed overly runny? We all agreed it would have been better if it was thicker.\n\nI'm happy that Edmonton is finally opening up new restaurants and wish nothing but the best for Rostizado's. Hopefully, they work on a few things and make some changes price wise, otherwise I can't see myself going back anytime soon.", "AMAZING. One of the best meals I've had out in ages.\n\nThey don't take reservations and they don't seat you until your entire party arrives so if you are not one of those people that is ok with the fact that you may have to wait a little bit for a table please go somewhere else so I can have your table (a group of 4 of us waited less than 10 minutes on a Saturday night, though, so really you may not have to wait long).\n\nThe wooden floors and glass tile give the place a comfortable and modern feel and the record players that play the music that fills the background are a fun choice.\n\nThe cocktail menu is all tequila based and the beverages have a kick, a perfect counter to the rich, unctuous pork platter that two of us shared. The platter for two feeds two people VERY generously and still leaves you with a few bits leftover, so if you are going to choose that definitely bring your appetite. We started with the cheese and mushroom dip (which I could have bathed in it was so good) and ended with the churros (which had I not been so full I could have eaten 2 more orders of). My other two dining companions had the pork sandwich (which was literally the size of a newborn) and two of the fish dishes (the smoked salmon one has a kick, really unexpected and delicious). One of my friends was so disappointed that they were out of tamales (she's a southern girl and looks for them wherever she can) but now that means we just have to go back another time to try them... darn.\n\nMore than the food and the ambience, the service was great. Our waitress, Samantha, was just the best. Friendly, chatty, great sense of humour and all around fantastic at her job. Five extra stars to you Samantha, you rock.", "The newest addition to the Mercer Building and the successor to the Roast Coffeehouse space, Rostizado opened its doors to the public on August 11th. The restaurant is the latest venture of the Tres Carnales trio: Daniel Braun, Chris Sills, and Edgar Gutierrez. While Tres Carnales has a brighter, more casual atmosphere, Rostizado is its grown-up counterpart. The modern Mexican rotisserie restaurant specializes in roasted meats offered in a classy, low-lit dining space. The eclectic Mexican touches are still there, but they sit amongst darker wood elements-a distinct difference from the bubbly, colourful Tres Carnales.\n\nI attended their VIP media event recently and everything was great. We sampled the albondigas, meatballs made from veal, pork, beef, and rice, tossed in tomato and warm chile de árbol salsa. One bite of these meatballs unveiled a variety of herbs to complement the meat, followed by a spicy sucker punch to tease those tastebuds. They were so good, I went back for seconds and had to stop myself from diving for thirds.\n\nThe gorditas with pancita (braised pork belly) had a unique combination of savoury and plenty of lime, all tempered by the fluffy corn flour gordita. The queso fundido gave fungus-lovers the taste of wild mushrooms paired with smoked gouda, monterery jack cheese, poblano chile strips, and sauteed onions. For those who prefer subtle, rich flavours, this one's for you. Slow roasted and flavourful, the rosti puerco (roasted pork) slices sat atop a tortilla, paired with pickled red onion, avocado, and parsley.\n\nAnd the churros-oh, the churros. I would order this dessert in a heartbeat. The chefs served them up fresh, hot, and overflowing with sugar. The insides were still soft, though the exterior had been fried to a perfect, golden-brown crisp. Delicious, sweet, and well worth the third trip through the line.\n\nRostizado has definitely raised the bar. I look forward to returning soon and trying one of their roasted meat platters, which are served with roasted potatoes and tortillas. Oh, the meats! The flavours!", "Unlike next door at the Mercer, the Tres Carnales guys don't open a restaurant/bar and plan on getting by on their looks alone. \n\nThat's not to say Rostizado isn't pretty, hell, it's gorgeous. The atmosphere is very hip but even more so, comfortable and inviting. I can see a wide variety of urbanites sitting down to enjoy a meal here (whereas you need to be of a certain kind of clientele to really feel at home in the mercer). \n\nThe food, naturally, is great. You can expect nothing less from the Tres Carnales group. Their dedication to authentic Mexican fare is still apparent, though you can see them taking their own spin on it here to differentiate not only from everyone else in town filling a burrito, but from their own flagship restaurant; the excellent Tres Carnales. \n\nWhere they stumble a little is in the customer experience. Some of this is, obviously, because they are so new. The wait staff seems a little overwhelmed and inconsistently directed: they are ridiculously fast to refill everyone's water, but slow to bring you a paid drink. When one person's dish in our group was very late while the rest all had theirs, they didn't acknowledge it until we pointed it out, then they got weird and defensive, quick to shift blame to the cook staff. Poor response. \n\nOther things, like the menu itself being very brief in its dish descriptions with a lot of Spanish, is the owners being tied too tightly to authenticity. Every one in our group had our smartphones out, using google translate, just to figure out what was what. This problem, again, could be filled with the wait staff being more present and on the ball. It's a shame because the original Tres Carnales was very good at this, having staff devoted to greeting and briefing new customers in line. Given time and more staff, I hope they are able to bring this same level of service to their new eatery. \n\nOverall, a great addition to the Mercer building. Great food. Great atmosphere. Most of the issues they do have are do to newness in the staff, but whereas the Mercer would ignore you outright, these guys are obviously trying to strive for more.", "The guys from Tres outdid themselves when they opened up this place! Walking into Rostisado took my breath away. The decor is gorgeous. Lots of long tables to sit at for bigger groups and this like 70's themed living room to dine in with two super large couches. (Though, I really don't enjoy eating off of a couch, though I'm sure that if you came just for drinks and appies it'd be alright).\n\nM and I came for dinner around 7:30pm on a Saturday night and the wait was going to be around an hour and half they said for a table. Normally, that would suck, though they have the technology to text you and let you know when your table is ready. This is done a lot in the states and I think it's fantastic. Fortunately, we didn't have to wait as there were two seats at the bar we could sneak into right away!\n\nOur server/bartender was Joshua, and he was freaking fantastic! Introduced himself, and called us by our names the whole evening. A great personality and knows his beverages too! We tried a few of their tequila based beverages and for $10-$11 they include 2 oz of liquor and fresh squeezed juice. It was fun watching Joshua make them all!\n\nWe shared the Queso Fundido ($14 I think) to start and it was superb. Cheese and mushrooms with bread and chips. Definitely recommend! We decided to share the Combo Platter for two which included rotisserie chicken and pork, roasted potatoes, tortillas and a jalapeno ($50). This could have easily fed 3-4 people - the platter is HUGE! We ended the night sharing Churros ($8) and man were they good. M had come the week before for lunch and had the pork sandwich ($16 if I remember correctly) and up until yesterday hadn't stopped talking about it, so really if you chose the platters or the sandwiches, you'll be satisfied!\n\nOur bill was a little on the pricey side as we had 3 drinks but the food prices are definitely worth the expense. It was a great place to enjoy a Saturday night date night for sure.", "My boyfriend and I decided to drop by for dinner a couple days after opening. Just as I had expected, the restaurant was packed on a Friday evening at 5:30 PM. We managed to snag the last two seats facing the open kitchen and had some housemade bar snacks while perusing the menu. The little dish consisted of a spicy, tangy mix of chickpeas, yam chips, corn nuts and tortilla crisps. It was salty, crunchy and super addictive. I could eat it everyday.\n\nAlthough not mentioned on the menu, we ordered a black coffee ($3.50) and we were surprised to get coffee with a Tres Carnales twist. The coffee had an addition of a housemade syrup with notes of cinnamon, cloves and orange among other things. Definitely something unique to try. \n\nBetween the two of us we decided to split the Rotisserie Platter for 2 ($55) which featured their rosti-pollo (chicken) and rosti-puerco (pork) with a side of rosti-papas (potatoes), tortillas and salsa verde. This platter was one glorious pile of meat. The roasted chicken was tender but the breast was a little drier than I would have liked. The clear winner on this platter for me was the pork, as it was juicy, tender, and well seasoned. The potatoes were roasted with the drippings from the meats, making them absolutely delicious. The spicy flavour kick, crisp skin and tender interior made these potatoes the perfect accompaniment. The meats combined well with the fresh kick of the salsa verde, but we wished more tortillas were provided on the platter given the amount of meat.\n\nWorried that we wouldn't have enough food, we decided to order a side with our platter. It was a tough choice but we chose a half size of the Charred Cebollitas ($7): grilled spring onions marinated in soy sauce, salsa maggi, lime juice & black pepper. The description of the onions really stood out to me and the first bite into one confirmed that we had made the right decision. The charred outer skin gave these onions a great smoky flavour, but biting into the crisp, sweet flesh was the best part. The soy-based marinade really soaked into the onions and every bite was a juicy flavour explosion.\n\nTo finish off the night we had to get the made-to-order Churros Con Dulce de Leche ($8). When I was in Mexico I always slathered my churros with dulce de leche so these ones had a lot to live up to! The churros at Rostizado came piping hot to our table coated in cinnamon sugar, ready for dipping into the dulce de leche. The first bite into the churro was so satisfying! The crispy exterior gave way to a creamy, chewy centre, and the caramel flavours of the dulce de leche paired perfectly with this deep fried treat. I found some pieces to be heavily coated in sugar, but that was easily remedied with a light tap. I do wish the consistency of the dulce de leche was a little thicker, but only so that I could get way more coated onto my churro with each bite. Mmm. \n\nRostizado is definitely a hit here in Edmonton and a very welcome addition to the downtown dining scene. The space is modern, staff are friendly, and the food is fantastic. I really enjoyed the upbeat environment, but the dim dining room allows for intimacy as well. In terms of pricing, the rotisserie on the menu does run on the more expensive side of things but they offer some great sandwich options at a lower price point that feature the roasted meats. So what are you waiting for? Get on down to Rostizado, and quick. They don't take reservations!", "Went here for a quick lunch with a girlfriend, we both got the rosti-pollo cemita, food was so tasty. The side of roasted potatoes were delicious. \n\nThe only issue we both had (maybe it just wasn't picked through enough) but we both ended up picking bone-type pieces out of our sandwiches near the end of our meals, so it wasn't just the meat in there, which we didn't appreciate at all.\n\nEverything else was amazing, the service here was much friendly than their other restaurant Tres Carnales. I will be back for dinner, as I feel it was a bit on the pricey side for lunch.", "I have to say I am really impressed with the overall atmosphere and ambience here. The service was fast and impeccable. Our server was very knowledgeable which made us order EVERYTHING. She was really enthusiastic about the food which was infectious. \n\nWe ordered the queso fundido, the gorditas, platter for two and more. There was so much food, however these three were the highlights. As for the queso, not really that authentic queso it's more like veggies with melted cheese on it. Not exactly a dip. The flavours were good just the didn't come together. The platter was amazing. I have to say it was so moist and seasoned perfectly. Really impressed with the portion size to. Platter for two should be called platter for four. Oh and I saved the best for last. The gorditas were the best I have had in a long time. The outer corn shell was cooked perfectly and meat was juicy. \n\nOf course the server convinced us to try every drink and have the churros. 13 dollar drinks and 8 dollar churros were ridiculous but have to say well worth it. \n\nA huge step up from Tres Carnales" ]

We both ordered the All-Star Special Breakfast with eggs, waffles, coffee, toast and grits. It was okay for the price but nothing special, including the waffles. There were also some annoying flies bothering us while we ate.\n\nConclusion - This is not a bad sit down breakfast choice but don't expect more than you would get from a McDonald's Breakfast Platter.", "This is the best Waffle House in town.

I usually get the nothing fancy standard: eggs over easy, hash browns, a waffle, what have you.

The food we had was just ok. That won't stop me from visiting another Waffle House in the future because most of the time the food is good. \n\nThis location however will not be my choice for late night dinner.", "Turrible. Service was weird to say the least. The system of ordering when I went was all messed up and they kept messing up people's orders. They just verbally told the chefs what the order was but they kept messing up... The food was mediocre at best. I was expecting some bomb hash browns and a nice juicy steak. Instead I got some burnt hash browns and an overcooked steak (asked for medium rare). Just go to IHOP next door.", "Excellent food and service, where I get my pre and post ultra marathon grub.

The looks and overall mood/atmosphere are close to being the same but I would say this one is a bit more kid friendly. The menu doesn't have as much of a selection either. The food, especially the entrees, is not even close to the quality. \n\nEven though I wasn't overly impressed the pasta I ordered was really good. I can't remember what it was called but it was penne with grilled chicken, shrimp and a cayenne sauce. It was the one thing that saved this place.

Making a reservation for a weekend would be a good idea as we got the last table available around 5:45pm.\n\nThe decor was quite cheesy, paper napkins, plastic table covers, fake planets. Our server was quite nice, however was not the best at describing the menu. We were specifically wondering if a pizza would be good for one or two people. She had said that she could share one with a friend, but her 13 year old son could eat 1.5 to himself. I'm not sure if her son is 250lbs or what, but each of us ordering our own pizzas was a mistake.

Drinks wise, they had a decent wine/beer menu, nothing to write home about. \n\nI would go back again only because I have yet to find a really amazing pizza place.", "I went to the Sicilian Pasta kitchen on Jasper ave after they opened and never went back until recently because the food was pretty forgettable.\n\nThis is a typical casual dining pasta place (I wouldn't say Italian) like the olive garden. They bring you fresh bread while you are waiting for your food and there are many meat, vegetarian and seafood pasta options to chose from. \n\nI had the gnocchi which was average but my friend had ravioli with a cream sauce and snow peas which was yummy. The service was a little slow but friendly. I might come back here again but prefer the smaller more authentic Italian restaurants in Edmonton.", "First of all, I'm not a huge fan of Italian restaurant food so I can't comment on authenticity but I have been to this restaurant quite a few times and have always liked it. My husband and I went tonight and the service was quick especially considering is was packed and they got us in quickly without a reservation. I had the muscles and caesar salad which is usually what I get when I go there and it was good. Caesar salad wasn't the best I've ever had but decent and fresh. I really like the muscles in tomato sauce though. Garlicky, which I like, flavorful, well cooked and served nice and hot. My husband had some kind of creamy seafood pasta and he liked it although he mentioned it was kind of bland. He says he would still give it four stars. If I could, I'd give it three and a half. Overall, a good staple place to go and we will be back!", "My partner and I decided to check out the Sicilian Pasta Kitchen to celebrate New Years Eve. I really liked that they posted their set menu online ahead of time so we didn't have to wait until we got their to find out what was actually available. They also offered a good range of seating times compared to other restaurants I have considered for the evening.\n\nI started my meal with the Insalata Arancia. I found the dressing to be a little too sweet for my liking, but the vegetables were fresh and I still enjoyed it overall. The only vegetarian main course offered was a butternut squash ravioli which was faaaantastic. I was definitely impressed. My favourite part was that for dessert you were able to choose any of their regular menu items. I was pretty full from dinner so I opted for one of their gourmet ice creams; the perfect finish to a great meal.\n\nEven though it was completely packed, the restaurant still had an intimate atmosphere.

I have had better pasta at Boston Pizza for the same price.", "The Sicilian Pasta Kitchen was a pleasant surprise. There were lots of options (I even spotted a couple gluten free dishes!) and the pasta dishes were all reasonably priced. \n\nFor an appetizer we ordered the Scaccia Aglio (thin crust pizza brushed with garlic herb butter then topped with parmesan cheese, prosciutto ham, and mozzarella served with a garlic dip) which was delicious! My boyfriend, who is not a big pasta eater to begin with, loved his Penne All' Arrabiata (penne in a spicy tomato sauce with finely diced pancetta ham and crushed chilies) with the homemade italian sausage. My order of Linguine Miscuglio (linguine tossed with a medley of shrimp, sliced chicken, and crumbled Italian sausage with roasted peppers, onions and zucchini in a Cajun cream sauce) was very tasty. \n\nThe only thing I was bothered by is the dishes were quite oily.

[ "I was excited to hear about a new BBQ joint in town but it turned out to be a bland disappointment.\n\nI got a 3 meat combo - brisket, tri-tip, and ribs - with garlic bread and hush puppies. I was thrilled to see hush puppies on the menu, as those are a rarity around here. I would have liked to see beef ribs on the menu too, but I won't hold that against them. How'd it all turn out?\n\nHush puppies: My friend stole one as the waiter set my food down. He quickly expressed his dismay at how bland they were. I was hoping he was overreacting, but on tasting them they appeared to be completely unseasoned. No more than bland nuggets of fried dough.\n\nGarlic bread: Not bad, but not good. \n\nBrisket and tri-tip: I couldn't tell which was which, because both came out as 1\" chunks of sliced grey meat in little cups, and both were close to flavorless. No seasoning on either of them as far as I could tell. One of the two had BBQ sauce poured on it, so I'm guessing that was the brisket (sauce on tri-tip should be a no-no), but the sauce was very mild and barely added anything. Neither of the meats were tough, but at the same time neither were melt-in-your-mouth tender like a properly cooked brisket should be (but that would be a rare find indeed). \n\nRibs: Because they were smothered in sauce (I chose the hickory) they at least had some flavor. Again though the sauce was very mild, and the meat didn't have much of any flavor of its own to contribute. On that alone I'd not recommend trying them. What was unforgivable: the ribs were cold. I'm not talking \"room temperature\" cold, I'm talking \"this was in a refrigerator and someone made a poor attempt at warming it up\" cold. Why is a BBQ joint storing finished ribs in the refrigerator? You'd think at least on their opening week a restaurant would try to serve fresh food, particularly one of their prime entrees! (And if you're going to try to fool us, at least serve it HOT.)\n\nThis would have been a 1-star review except the prices were good and the staff was very courteous. I try to be forgiving of new restaurants (everyone needs an opportunity to make mistakes and learn from them) and I'll definitely be back in a couple months to give this place a second shot. I really hope that by then I'll be able to bump this up to at least 4 stars.", "Good food, friendly service, reasonable prices. We will be back! Much better than pastavino!", "So Robert T's review is spot on! Just went here to try and branch out from Hollister Brew Co; spoiler alert, was not impressed.

(I uploaded a pic of it as ordered)\n\nBrisket- Room temperature, uninspired. If you have had real BBQ from a legit place, you will be sorely disappointed. Comes in a salsa container. A joke.\n\nRibs- 3x pork ribs, room temperature, I always order sauce on the side to really see how the ribs were done. Ribs appear to have been flash cooked in a broiler or something from being half cooked. They had way too much heat right before serving (black, charcoal) then served room temp? Heresy! SERVED DIRECTLY ON THE STAINLESS TRAY. Not even in a fry basket???? I can only imagine the nasty mess directly on the tray if I got sauce on them too.\n\nPulled Pork - Uninspired, not flavorful, some fat chunk, and since it comes in a salsa container, thats a large percentage fat! Served room temp. Comes in salsa container.\n\nCornbread - Room temp and bland.\n\nHush Puppies - Sounded neat to try, room temp, bland, no cheese seen as described.\n\nBeer - Ninkasi IPA, OK, not my fave, but i don't hold that against them. I like other brand IPA's better. Again, not part of the rating overall.\n\nWife's Gaucho Sandwich - Room temp pulled pork sandwich, with a warm onion ring. Didn't finish it.\n\nWife's Arnold Palmer - Soda fountain mixed \"Nestea + Lemonade\" or something. I couldn't drink it. She drank half.\n\nAlso like other reviews, I give the staff good marks, they were more than helpful and attentive and friendly. The waitress acknowledged the food complaints from the last several days and says she keeps telling the kitchen. The food tray was delivered as a 3 item combo without the brisket, had to ask for it!

I ordered the two item plate with tri-tip and baby back ribs and my husband ordered tri tip and pulled pork. The tri tip was inedible. The meat was served lukewarm at best and was as tough as shoe leather. The baby back ribs had no flavor and were a big fatty mess. My husband took a bite of the pulled pork and had to spit it out.

The sliced chicken was cold, meaning, this was frozen chicken that was sitting in the freezer and served still cold to a customer, who had already paid because they make you pay before you even get your food.\n\nI called a server over and told her the chicken was cold, she took the food back and brought us a new one 10 minutes later.

We moved to Goleta from the Midwest a year ago and when we saw the opening of a BBQ place we were happy to see something familiar. We deliberately went at 2pm so that it wouldn't be too busy. We got a chili-cheese fry appetizer. My wife ordered the pulled pork, corn on the cob and garlic bread. I ordered pulled pork, smoked sausage, baked beans and corn bread. I don't mind a moist pulled pork but it should be warm this was closer to being a cold soup than it was being BBQ. The 'smoked sausage' was some off brand kielbasa that someone threw in a smoker for not nearly long enough to qualify as anything but the barest of smoked flavor. The single BBQ sauce at the table (the menu lists 3) was mostly empty and while it had a hickory flavor it wasn't anything to write home about. I've had better baked beans straight out of a can at the grocery store. The corn on the cob was so cold it couldn't melt the butter. The thin tasteless stale garlic bread seemed like someone literally thawed something from Costco. The chili cheese fries despite being an appetizer came at exactly the same time as the meal though I must admit they were decent. The single bright spot was the corn bread which was decidedly good in flavor, temperature and consistency. \n\nOn top of the lack luster food the set up for the service is not a good thing. You order at the counter as you come into the place. I don't mind the notion of something like this but if I want to tip and I'm paying with plastic that means I need to tip before I get food or service. I saw a server once during our time there and that was when he delivered the food. In general it's just a bad set up for a BBQ place.\n\nDespite being a lover of BBQ I've got no real reason to return. The set up is bad and the food is dismal." ]

I have been here for lunch before (a few years ago), and it was good (though not especially memorable). Went for breakfast on a lazy Saturday morning; it was not too crowded, we were one of only 4 or 5 tables. We ordered one eggs benedict, a ham and cheese omelet and a pork roll benedict (pork roll instead of canadian bacon - genius!).\n\nUnfortunately when the food came out, the omelet was not fluffy, rather rubbery, with too much ham and too little cheese. Quite sad. On both of the benedicts the poached eggs were cooked way beyond the point of having any yolk run out when pierced. The hollandaise was just ok - it was a good consistency but didn't have that nice little tang that a great hollandaise does.\n\nHowever, the breakfast potatoes were great! Perfectly seasoned, perfectly sized little chunks of potato (the size is key so you get the right crispy exterior to potatoey interior ratio rather than having potatoes that are quartered or hash browns that are soggy). Service was just fine, a little absentee for how not busy it was, but the place is very diner-like for breakfast, so what can you expect?\n\nNevertheless, I would still like to give dinner here a try sometime.

I would say he does not have a good business sense. Their food is barely adequate at best so for me it is not a great loss.", "I've been to Goose creek a couple times and have left satisfied each time. The app. menu is not necessarily rare but certainly not typical. The seafood platter blew me away the first time I had it but I was a little disapointed on the secoond round. The pizza is fantastic but a little pricey. Can't go wrong with brick oven. A few good beers on tap and the staff is friendly and attentive. It would be nice if they had a bar but the large outdoor seating more than makes up when the weather is right." ]

Gumbo very flavorful and seasoned to perfection. Sautéed jumbo crab claws are a must. Definitely a must try. Music compliments the time of day and makes the visit entertaining. Definitely need purse hooks under the bar...", "I had really high hopes for Morrow's! However the customer service was horrible (our waiter) and the food was not as grand as I expected. \n\nWe had to wait for food that never came. Another waiter had to bring some of our appetizers and drinks to the table because our waiter forgot. If it wasn't for another waiter I'm sure my friends and I would have left. Our appetizers were gone and we waited before another waiter had to come take our order. I could go on and on about her service but just know hers was very bad and maybe it was her first day. \n\nThe gumbo was sent from heaven And touched by God after the angels made it! The crab claws were pretty good as well! The crawfish etouffee was not the best; the crawfish tasted fishy and/or frozen. The crawfish pasta was slightly dry! \n\nOverall the ambience of the restaurant was good but the waiter coupled with the hit or miss food will not result in me coming here again when I'm in town.", "They have a lot to learn about service. The male bartender was super apathetic and seemingly annoyed by our existence...ex: when taking our brunch order he just walked up and said \"Food?\" In general he couldn't be bothered to interact with us, let alone do it with any hospitality. \n\nLousy drinks -- the mimosas are a ripoff. We ordered a carafe, but it was 90% juice, only the neck was topped off w/ sparkling wine. We're not ordering juice here, people, we're ordering drinks! A mimosa should be mostly sparkling and topped w/ juice. I asked if he could add more but his adjustment made no difference. But here's the kicker -- when a friend of the apathetic bartender sat next to us, she was welcomed with smiles and jovial hospitality, and when she ordered a mimosa guess what she got? 90% sparkling wine, topped with juice! You know, the way they're supposed to be made.\n\nClearly there's no front-of-house manager to oversee and ensure good service.\n\nFood-wise, it's meh. The forgettable $13 & $15 entrees didn't come with sides, so you gotta pay extra to have potatoes or grits or bacon w/ those eggs.\n\nSorry guys, but New Orleans is a food and hospitality town....You aren't even trying. I don't imagine Morrow's will be around unless you step up your game in a major way. (and writing yourself fake reviews wasn't the solution -- glad Yelp removed them!)", "EXCELLENT FOOD AND CUSTOMER SERVICE! I will def be back really soon, probably tomorrow! Can't wait to try everything else on the menu", "They really need to step up their game if they want to stay in business in such a competitive city. Service was absolutely TERRIBLE!. Went here for brunch on sunday. Menu is overpriced and entrees don't even come with sides, you have to pay extras for potatoes. I ordered a crab Benedict and it was a very thick cake (that could have easily been split into two) topped with the tiniest poached egg and they weren't kidding when they said \"drizzle\" of hollandaise. My friend ordered the sweet potatoes pancakes and they arrived 20 mins after my order came ( i had already finished my plate), with no silverware,no syrup or butter, but more importantly, his pancakes were RAW. Our glasses of water and coffees never got refilled and when we asked the waitress to take back the inedible pancakes and get us the check she came back after a looong time and acted like she did us a favor by taking the pancakes off the check. Suffice to say, we will not be returning. It's a shame because the space is really nice.", "So I came to town from Indianapolis Indiana and everyone kept talking about Morrows. From the lady at the rental car counter to other people. We tried it and it was absolutely delicious. We met Larry Morrow in person. He is a true gem.

Our server was excellent as well very attentive.", "This place came well recommended and didn't disappoint. In fact it superseded it. The hospitality was great, the food was great, the environment was great. I had the gumbo and oysters. Our waiter was Rory, she was was fast, friendly and courteous.

Nice atmosphere and a GREAT FRIDAY HAPPY HOUR ( LIVE BROADCAST FOR THE SPORTS FAN). Food is prepared perfectly and the owner takes charge personally of the management of the restaurant keeping the standards high. Service is Friendly and very good. Next door is an Authentic Italian Market complete with hard to get Italian Delicacies, Meats, Cheeses, Bread & Rolls and prepared food. Extra Parking across the street. Your Place for Italian in the Swedesboro area. Be sure to call for Reservations for dinner and check out their daily events.", "Botto's is a traditional family owned Italian restaurant. A restaurant like this is typical in the Chicago area, to be honest, while they are probably very common along the eastern shore, this is the first time I've entered a place like this near the east coast. The restaurant is divided into two parts; there is a fine dining area featuring linen table cloths and sparkling glassware, and then there is a lounge area with several television screens and more of an informal atmosphere.\n\nMy party opted for the lounge area. We were given two menus, a dinner menu with a large selection of Italian dishes and fine wines, and a lounge menu which primarily had sandwiches, pizza's and appetizers. I went for the Italian Sausage and Pepper sandwich and a spring salad. The rest of the party had veal parmesan, baked manacotti, and spaghetti balognese. My salad was nice and fresh, the viniagrette highlighted the taste of the greens very well, the sandwich was huge, about 15 inches long, the sausage was split before it was grilled and had large pieces of cooked red and yellow pepper. The sausage itself had a bit of heat and was nice and lean, not fatty like some sausages. The rest of my party enjoyed their meals with the general observation that the portions were huge.\n\nAn enjoyable side note; the owners wife and family were having a family dinner at a long table nest to us. It was fun seeing a large family (About 20 people) bantering and having a good time. The owners son, who was five had come out of the kitchen wearing his apron and told us he was having his first cooking lesson. I guess they start them young in Italy. I demanded that the kid cook my meal and his grandmother had him present us with a platter of fresh parmesan cheese. \n\nAll in all, it was an enjoyable experience and the staff was very friendly and attentive. It strikes me as the place to get Italian food in this part of New Jersey.", "Great Italian place. We had the antipasto and stuffed mushrooms (stuffed w crabmeat) for appetizers, which were both great. The Italian wedding soup was excellent, not too salty or greasy or chickeny like some places, and the meatballs must have been homemade. I had the Pasta Granchia for dinner - linguine w tomato sauce (could have chosen garlic/oil and any pasta shape) with sauteed crabmeat, it was fantastic. A little pricey, but totally worth it -- the food was excellent, they didn't cheap out on the amount of crabmeat or other seafood, and the service was friendly. We're pretty critical of Italian food but we have no complaints about Botto's.", "Had dinner here with my colleagues from work to wish our summer intern well. The food was delicious! I had the Rigatoni with crab meat, scallops and peas in an Alfredo sauce. The portions were very generous. The service was excellent. . . . and leftovers made for the perfect lunch the next day. \n\nWhat a great time had by all!", "On a recent visit I sat in the back dining room for the first time. Recommend sitting in here as to opposed to the casual bar area. It is much nicer. Portions are really generous. My chicken francaise was delicious and could have served two. Good service too.", "I have been known to do ridiculous things for good Italian food. Botto's could easily make me take on a triple-dog-dare. \n\nEnjoyed a meal in the back room on a first date. Heard after the fact that this is *the* first date location for the locals-and I can see why. The back area is a dimly lit, linen-clothed, intimate room. The ceiling is peppered with twinkle lights and the walls have a strange assortment of picture and paintings, which, in any other setting, may lend themselves to tackiness. Somehow, however, it all seems to not only *work*, but to give it some class. Who knew sailing ships and Christmas lights could be so upscale?! (They ARE.)\n\nThere is no question, however, as to whether or not the menu works. The food is sublime. The portions are huge. I thoroughly enjoyed the Bruschetta and my Penne alla Vodka, as well as my date's Chicken Francaise. We shared Tiramisu for dessert which I ordinarily avoid (it's a texture thing), but this was fantastic! And even at 10 pm, the coffee was top-notch.\n\nI would have liked to rate this 5 stars, but the service was pretty slow. The server was friendly and helpful, which went a long way into making up for it. \n\nIf you're looking for a place to try to spark up romance, give Botto's a try. Regardless of whether you're diggin' your date, you'll definitely be falling in love with the food.", "The best Italian restaurant in my area.

The 32.00 dollar crab cakes were ice cold, the pasta fagioli was bland and not very good. my wife got a meatball sub. now you would expect a damn good meatball sub from an ittalian place, right? not here, they were hard and dare I say \"pre made\"? the service didnt make it any better either because the regulars got all of the attention. My wife and I waited so log for the dessert tray that we wound up begging for the check instead for fear that we would be stuck there well into the night. if your from out of town, please do not judge swedesboro based on this place, there are several other good places to eat right nearby.", "We did not have reservations. They were swamped, but they made room for us. we didn't have to wait. As busy as they were, they were very attentive. Our waitress, Alexis was amazing. She helped us make good choices for our meals and kept our coffee cups, water and drinks filled at all times. Their Wedding soup was superb. I had the fusilli with chicken, sausage and grilled asparagus. It was a great combination. Their noodles were home made and delicious (almost like a long spaetzla) , The swordfish was moist and mild. cooked to perfection. It was so good we went back the next evening for another great meal." ]

[ "Visited Mojo during their grand opening weekend. The menu covers a lot of ground. We ordered the following: garden salad, salmon gravlox, baked goat cheese with tomato sauce, roasted pork empanadas, and swordfish kabobs. The swordfish kabobs were by far the best - cooked perfectly - although they were the last to arrive at the table. We also took advantage of the 1/2-price lemon basil mojitos, in which the bartender substituted basil for mint. These were really tasty and refreshing.\n\nI found the tapas to be a little too sweet for my tastes though. For example, the empanadas had a mango sauce that tasted fresh but was very sweet. My ideal tapas lean more towards the salty and savory and I didn't see much of that on the menu. And even though this is not an authentic Spanish tapas restaurant, it would be nice to see some sherry on the wine list. We did not try any of the desserts; the bread pudding sounded good, but all the other options seemed very \"basic\" and typically American, not inspired by Spanish or Latin-American cuisine in any way.\n\nThe service was odd... Our waiter was very nice but seemed a little out of it. Maybe just nervous or inexperienced? We didn't realize until we had left that he actually undercharged us for our meal. Everything we ordered was on the check... but somehow the total amount ended up reduced and I have no idea why.\n\nDo I like what they've done with the space? NO. The exposed brick has been conserved on one side but covered up with plaster and an orange-ish/pink-ish paint on the other side. Hopefully they will get some art up on the painted side. The raised stage area has been converted into seating, so no live music here, I guess. What really bothered me was the ugly divider they put down the middle of the restaurant between the bar and the main seating area. Our table was right next to the divider, and we felt our seating area was cramped and dark. My date and I would have liked to see the bar from our table.\n\nI am tempted to only give 2 stars, but they just opened, and I have a history of being very hard on tapas restaurants (I was spoiled by José Andrés in DC). The swordfish kebobs and mojitos were excellent, and I look forward to going back and trying some more items.", "We stopped in for a late dinner on friday night at Mojo and just couldn't leave. We love that its non smoking, it makes it feel especially clean in there. The decorating is tasteful, not too over the top, and our server couldn't have been more gracious. We had the trout salad, crab empanadas, edamame hummus, the house cured and smoked pork belly, a cup of gumbo and finished with an apple turnover. \nAs we were relaxing after our meal, just about to the bottom of our pitcher of lemon basil mojitos (to die for), we were dissappointed to see a D.J. walk in the door. WE WERE WRONG! The D.J. was able to spin the videos on the TV's over the bar and we were laughing all night at the gaudy fashions in the 80's videos.\nWe'd come again for dinner or late night drinks. Actually, we already stopped by again for lunch. The salmon club on a PRETZEL BUN is out of this world!", "I work on South Grand so I might be a little biased... But here's my take on Mojo Tapas Restaurant & Bar:\n\nIt's nice to have a tapas restaurant that not over-the-top pricey and has accessible food both in price and flavor. It's even nicer to have a place like Mojo in my own neighborhood.\n\nI love how the tapas menu touches on a variety of flavor palettes, with the dishes just large enough for a small group to taste. When I visited, we sampled the roasted pork empanadas, lamb sliders, sweet potato/andouille hash, seared ahi tuna, edamame hummus, and shrimp & \"sexy gritz\".\n\nI could elaborate on each dish, and tell you how tasty they were, but that should go without saying... It's all delicous! I highly suggest the \"Sexy Gritz\" and any of their empanadas. After another visit, I also suggest the veggie cakes and smoked trout salad: awesome!\n\nOur sampling, plus drinks and dessert (Banana brioche bread pudding and apple turnover w/ vanilla ice cream!!!) our bill was about $70. Not bad for a tapas dinner for three.\n\nOur service was very helpful and knowledgeable of the menu; which is nice to see in a restaurant in its opening stages. Just remember to let the bussers know that you're not finished with that last bite of hummus, they might be a little aggressive.\n\nAgain, it's such a pleasure to be in such close proximity to another restaurant that cares about its food, its customers, and its neighborhood.", "This restaurant has been open just about a month and I have been there twice already. It is so delicious. The lamb sliders on the tapas menu are my most favorite - they are seasoned perfectly and served with a sweeter relish on delicious soft rolls. Crab empanada was very good as are calamari and tenderloin dishes. \n\nHad excellent service each time, friendly and proactive. We never had to ask for drink refills or new plates. The servers made recommendations when asked and knew the menu. \n\nSat at the bar one night and bartenders are just as service minded and attentive. \n\nAnd the french martini is perfect.\n\nSo glad Mojo has found it's way to South Grand. Will become my new go to spot.", "While I was only there for dessert tapas and cocktails, I must attest to their deliciousness.\n\nThe mango empanadas were insanely delicious. And only $4. You get four half pieces to share (if you're feeling share-y. Next time, I'm not so sure I will be. )\n\nI could also say similar things about the apple turnover, but it wasn't out of the ordinary. Also the mexican chocolate/kahlua creme caramel was really good.\n\nI tried a lemon basil mojito which, as you might expect, substitutes basil for mint (which instantly elevates it to awesomeness). If I weren't such a damn lightweight, I might have drank them all night. I also had a Haiku-- a gin cocktail with chambord, lemon and mint. Very sweet, but delicious as well. I think I preferred the mojito.\n\nOh-- I also got to sample a friend's bacon wrapped dates. My god.\n\nFor a Friday night at 9-10 it was a bit slow, with approximately 20-30 people inside and out front. I didn't mind-- the service was great! It might behoove them to have a less cliché name, but ignore the name and check this place out. Tasty.\n\nAlso happy hour starts again after 10 with $3 Schlafly drafts.", "I met up with some girlfriends here. \nI didn't order any dessert tapas but I tried four different types that were ordered by my friends, all were delicious! \nThe real star of the evening was the Lemon Basil Mojito! Possibly the best mojito I have ever had outside of Miami!\n\nThe place wasn't too busy at 11 pm on a Friday. The crowd was young and laid back. Right when we were about to leave a DJ showed up and played an 80's music video mix that was Awesome!", "I was dying for a mojito on Friday, searched Yelp for MOJITOS and this popped up! and the mojitos are OUTSTANDING!!! if I could, I would have one intraveniously connected to a vein in my arm ;-) I had the lemon basil mojito and my friend, the traditional. YUM, YUM, YUM. They were super refreshing and not overwhelmingly sugary-sweet from the simple syrup. 2 big thums up.\n\nWith regards to the food, it was pretty good; pretty standard tapas, I'd say. Our favorite was the roasted summer squash with tomato sauce and pesto. IT was delish. The garbanzo bean, red pepper and goat cheese hummus sounded promising, but was just OK. I liked the salt cod and potato cakes, but they were a touch dry and honestly, the best salt cod fritters are at Modesto. (Sorry, Mojo)\nCalamari=good. Liked the spicy dipping sauce and the phyllo wrapped salmon was also very tasty!\n\nThe ambieance is decent, it's a very open space and not a lot to absorb the noise/echos of others. SO, it was loud - and we were there early. I suppose keep that in mind if you're looking for a quiet dinner space;-)\n\nAll in all a great experience and I'll be going back for sure for those mojitos and some chow, too!!", "Looking for dinner on a Tuesday night, my friends and I turned to the trusty Yelp app to find something new. Mojo Tapas was nearby, so we went for a try.\n\nAfter being seated immediately, we selected a variety of tapas and didn't have to wait very long for them to start rolling out. Overall the plates were so-so with some being tasty and others a bit disappointing. I've listed the plates in order from good to not so good: \n\nPistachio encrusted aged provolone with Creole tomato sauce & pesto, $8. How can you not love a big piece of deep fried cheese covered in marinara sauce? \n\nSlow cooked Chinese five spice pork belly with black vinegar sauce & jasmine rice, $8. If you like pork fat, then this one is for you. Avoid if you don't like pork fat! \n\nCrab empanadas with mango mustard mojo, $8. Deep fried and stuffed with crab, they we so-so, but nothing special \n\nCalamari with chili lime aioli, $7. Your usual calamari, but the chili lime sauce had a very nice flavor. \n\nBleu cheese stuffed bacon wrapped dates with balsamic reduction, $6. Ohhh...this one sounds so good, but a bit of a disappointment. The bacon was overcooked and the dates were a bit small. \n\nBeef & peppers with chimichurri (mojo on a stick), $9. Nothing special about this one, I thought it was a bit lacking in flavor. \n\nGarbanzo bean, roasted pepper, & goat cheese hummus with pita bread, $5. The hummus was lacking in any wow factor, just average. \n\nSwordfish with squash salsa (mojo on a stick), $8. Recommended by the waiter, this plate has potential, but our fish was dry and lacking in flavor. \n\nTotal cost: $63 for 8 plates. I must say I was a bit disappointed in this place. I've had better tapas in St. Louis, but it beats those deep fried pig snouts in Barcelona! I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and maybe give it another shot someday. Overall though, I give it a very average 3 stars.", "I went here kind of reluctantly tonight, and am so glad I did. It was so much better in all ways than I expected. Everything was being run super professionally, interior was clean and nice. Service was prompt and attentive without being intrusive. Our drinks were filled when they emptied. \n\nWe tried the goat cheese in tomato sauce app... i love a similar dish from Barcelona, and it was just as good though not as large of a portion. I also tried the shrimp and grits, garbanzo bean/goat cheese hummus, veggie cakes....the shrimp & hummus were tip-top. The veggie cakes were good but not unique, it reminded me of similar tapas around town, try something else. \n\n We live in the area & usually drive all the way to Barcelona for tapas-not anymore! I'm excited to have such a good restaurant within walking distance.", "Some girlfriends and I were looking for a bite to eat on a Friday night with a good atmosphere and decided on Mojo. We sat outside which was good people watching and started off with a great glass of white sangria. \nWe proceeded to order several tapas for all of us to share. We got the goat cheese hummus which was good, not spectacular, but a good staple. The bacon wrapped blue cheesed stuffed dates were the bomb! It was unbelievable how well the flavors all went together, we were fighting over these! We also had lamb sliders which were perfect! Shrimp and sexy grits were absolutely delicious! \nI am a big fan of tapas and these did not dissapoint, the service was great as well!" ]

Everything is fabulous (very fresh) and the service is great (never had to ask for a water refill). \n\nThey also have an impressive menu with numerous specialty rolls.\n\nI can't wait to go back!", "This Wasabi location is great. I've been to the Clayton and downtown locations numerous times and was very happy when they moved in to this Warson Woods adddress. In fact, I think I like this Wasabi the best. It's small, cozy, and warm inside. The sushi chefs are all very nice and service was stellar. Their menu includes a very large selection of rolls, and nigri. It's also a nice place for beginners as they have a pictoral menu of their rolls and nigri as well. On this visit, we tried the Spicy Scallop, Caterpillar, and M&B 2 rolls as well as the seaweed salad. Everything was fresh, well made and very good. \n\nWasabi still isn't my favorite sushi destination in town, but I bet I frequent this place often since their newest location is so convenient for me. \n\nTip... The waitress noticed I was intently watching the chef make the rolls and said that the first Monday of the month during lunch they offer a sushi making class for $20.", "This place was on it's way to 4 stars, but I just can't give a 4 star review to a sushi place that is overpriced. Wasabi was only slightly overpriced, but if I wanted to pay too much for decent sushi I'd go to the drunken fish. \n\nThe restaurant had a calm, clean, comfortable ambiance. There was a large picture menu of all the rolls which was extremely helpful. Our waiter was attentive as was most of the staff who was continuously walking around clearing tables and refilling drinks. \n\nWe ordered 4 rolls which were all relatively tasty. A slight warning to those who are not a fan of spicy, every single roll they make has a touch of wasabi in it. Standing right by their name, but something that may turn some people off. The spicy scallop and dragon roll were very good.\n\nThis is 4 star sushi at a 3 star price. There was nothing overwhelming enough about the rolls or the restaurant that pushed me to a 4 star. I'd go back, but it wouldn't be my first choice.", "I really hoped to love Wasabi, but I have to say it was just ok. \n\nAlthough the place looked great, was clean, and delivered stellar service, their sushi was not good in my book. Both rolls I ordered had a little wasabi in them and they were just too spicy for me. Granted, I am a total pansy when it comes to even the mildest spiciness, so I just can't handle even that touch of wasabi they put in there. I would have to say I did enjoy the Rainbow Roll, but it was $11. Way over priced for the amount you receive. I do recommend the chicken kabob app though, that was very tasty! And the picture sushi menu was very helpful! \n\nNext time I'll be sure to ask for no wasabi! Other than they satisfy my craving for sushi, they are a-okay.", "I add another location to my 5-star choices - the latest Wasabi location on Manchester in Warson Woods just west of Rock Hill and Brentwood.\n\nWhen we arrived last Saturday before Valentine's Day at 6pm, it was a 45-min wait! Wow! We couldn't wait that day, but the hostess told us as we left that they do take reservations. (I haven't made one yet, so I can't confirm this.)\n\nSo without reservations, we tried a slower night and were seated without a wait. We started with the house green tea. We received two cups, a sand timer, and a clear pitcher full of tea. When the sand runs down, you're ready. You place the pitcher on top of your made-to-fit cup, and it dispenses the tea from the bottom directly into your cup. Replacing the pitcher on the table amazingly leaves no ring or moisture at all. The tea was good with a particularly nutty smell and contained brown rice among the tea leaves. Later, they did offer to refill our pitcher with more hot water, and it seemed like it wouldn't be an additional charge.\n\nWith an order of only 3 rolls, our salad was a la carte. (The server mentioned it was possible to get soup/salad free with 4 or more rolls.) I LOVE these salads with ginger dressing.\n\nThen an appetizer of gyoza, which was perfectly done.\n\nFinally, our sushi rolls arrived on a platter in the middle of the table. Upon friends' recommendations, we chose the M&B II (with barbecued eel) and the Clayton from the \"Latest Menu Additions\" insert. Both were very good. The description for the Clayton mentions \"spicy\" but it's extremely tame, and that's coming from someone who tops out at Del Taco's mild sauce.\n\nThere was a 3rd sushi roll. The local special at this location is called The Manchester, which we had to write in on our order sheet. You can view the description on the sign near the front. It is jam-packed with tasty ingredients, and we both liked it more than The Clayton or the M&B II.\n\nIf I remember correctly, the tea was around $5 and about the same for the gyoza. I don't recall the salad price, and each roll was around $11. They have less expensive rolls, but they just contain fewer ingredients and toppings.\n\nService was friendly and attentive. Great experience! Looking forward to coming back!", "Some of the rolls weren't done tight enough. If you picked one roll slice up with your chopsticks, they would fall apart. Lack of tea variety was left to be desired. I couldn't believe that they didn't have chrysanthemum tea, but then again not many Asian restaurants have that tea. The sushi wasn't bad. Great service. Decor & ambience was awesome.", "The rolls were pretty good and the price was fine but maybe a tad higher than it should have been. The service was reasonably prompt and friendly. Was able to get a table right away at around 8pm on a Saturday. Ample parking and relatively easy to get in and out of the parking lot. Overall I was pleased and would visit again.", "Sushi is my favorite food and in St. Louis there are a handful of really good places. Wasabi is one of them. I've tried the Manchester and Downtown locations -- both were quite good, but a little expensive. There was no wait for a table of 7 on a holiday weekend and service was good.", "Went to the Manchester in Kirkwood location, place was very busy for lunch during the week, We had good service and good food. I would not say it is the best sushi I ever had but for a neighborhood place not bad. Expensive for what you get.", "The location is a little cramped - if you're wanting an intimate dinner, don't dine here because the close tables make you feel like you're eating family style. Clean and bright, but if you're ordering tea you get a fancy infuser...with no tray so it drips on the table? Seems like an cheap fix to just buy the coaster instead of losing the classiness.As for the food: Hands down, the best scallop nigiri I've had in St. Louis. Fish was tender and silky. Maki (rolls) were a little skimpy on the fish - stick with the nigiri...although nigiri was also expensively priced per piece rather than per two pieces." ]

First things first. The shrimp and oyster poboys are stuffed. Especially the shrimp. And they're $2 cheaper than anywhere else. There are other places that stuff as much or even slightly more onto the poboy, but the union of price, quality, and quantity are in perfect harmony at Zimmer's. The bread is very airy always fresh, even at 5pm when they stop serving. They are well aware of the three main ways people like poboy dressings altered, so you don't need to explain yourself. They offer to put the hot sauce on there for you, which is just the icing on the cake. (Maybe there's a little room here to coin a new phrase, \"thats just the hot sauce on the poboy\".) They also have huge boiled turkey necks. No dining in.", "They still get it done in Gentilly.\n\n3 years after the storm, Zimmers is still surrounded by nearby half houses, house stumps, and freshly rebuilt places with kids playing outside, it is always a reminder of the rebuilding that is still going on out here, and worthy of a drive or leisurely bike ride out just to see parts of New Orleans that shouldn't be forgotten...Brad Pitt ain't out here, just ordinary folks still trying to get their neighborhood together...and luckily doing it right by one of the top 3 Po Boy places in town.\n\nConveniently located right next door to the Gendusa Bakery (Po' Boy historians know it was that families bakery that made the very first oversized po' boy loaves 80 odd years ago) so there is no doubt the bread is going to be fresh. Because of the bread, the po boys never get the dry taste that some other places otherwise decent can suffer from.\n\nThe menu is small. They don't do much, but they do it well. Fresh shrimp, oyster, catfish, half and halfs and the never to be forgotten french fry po boy. Mmmm, fried potatoes stuffed in french bread with lots of mayonnaise and goops of gravy...and as good as it sounds.\n\nThe place is a seafood store also, so pick up something to go, like marinated crab salad...in fact going out there just for a pint of that would be worthwhile.\n\nOwned by the same family for decades, it's worth a trip out,,,supporting Gentilly while eating a Shrimp Po Boy that will go head to head with any in the city can't be all that bad of a thing to do.", "I can only give Zimmer's 4 stars, because I've only tried their shrimp poboy. I've been there at least 10 times and I've never changed my order. The shrimp poboy is to die for and the prices are lower than most other poboy shops. It is overflowing with shrimp. I always put half in the refrigerator hoping to have it a few hours later, but somebody always gets to it before me. \n\nI'll be back to give an update and probably another star when I try something else off the menu.", "While visiting New Orleans to watch the Patriots play the Saints- I hunted for the best po-boy around. Unfortunately, I had to exit the French quarter but that was expected after ordering a po-boy at a local tourist trap. Zimmer's was a quick 10 minute ride and recommended by a local. Simply put this was an absolute treat and must visit. Being made to order it took some time but I appreciate that. I choose the shrimp and oyster however the ham and shrimp sounded good, still does. The combination incredible bread with hot sauce, lettuce, tomato, pickle and mayo creates a perfect storm for my belly. The sandwich was served just after it was created and down it went. They do a great job wrapping these beauties- however that didn't matter for me. I give them 5 stars because a po-boy can't get any better than this and make an effort to stop here and don't waste your money elsewhere.", "Been going here ever since the place open. The customer service is good..prices and food are great. They are not opened on MONDAY but they are REALLY GOOD.try it out. YOU wont be disappointed.OYSTER SHRIMP PO-BOY is so good", "Oyster Po-boy (dressed) and marinated crabs. OMG! It is one of the best kept secrets in the city. When you visit N.O., seek out this place in lieu of the commercial locations downtown. This place is definitely worth the drive.", "Really can't go wrong with anything here. Lunch menu is tops, plus there is plenty of great fresh seafood and their boiled crawfish is some of the best in the city. I like the oyster poboy dressed w/ hot sauce (which they will put on for you along with ketchup). The marinated crab salad (pint for $7) is so so good. Goes great between a couple of slices of bread.", "Zimmer's Seafood, located at an underdeveloped pedestrian friendly intersection in the heart of Voscoville, prepares arguably the best dressed shrimp po-boy in town (Castnet's are very good as well). You pay for quality here as Zimmer's is not the cheapest but we want real shrimp not the dried bite sized variety right? Of course. My only gripe is that they are closed on Sundays in opposition to my stomach's occasional Sunday po-boy craving. Check it out!", "No. Legit, this place is really as good as it gets. The staff is ALWAYS sweet and helpful, the food is ALWAYS delicious, there's ALWAYS a line (well, I could do without the line but it's telling) and even when things are out of season, the prices are ALWAYS decent. \n\nThis place is less than half a mile away from my house and I literally have to stop myself from skipping like a school child when I go: it's that great. \n\nOnce, when I was homesick for the Caribbean, one of the (owners? managers? associates?) told me a good place to buy exactly what kind of crab I was looking for to cook. \n\nMy ONLY gripe is that it's a part of the neighborhood that's less than desirable but, this is New Orleans. . .it's always a mixed bag.", "My one and only place of choice to get a Po-Boy! I also love their boiled seafood, and the service is great!" ]

[ "This place had just opened a few days Earlier and we fell upon it walking by. Very nice Boutique hotel located just up the hill from broadway in an old bank building. Friendly and attentive staff and quaint new rooms. The room was spacious and modern. Each room has a well equipped snack and wet bar with wine, beer and liquor. Excellent assortment of snacks! They pride themselves on this evidently. Each room is amply supplied with bottled water as well. They have a rooftop bar that is not open yet. Supposedly at the end of May. There is nice bar and a quaint little street side cafe that had a delicious breakfast.", "Pros: Really awesome vibe and atmosphere. Good service. Sweet roof top bar. Cons: the elevator was broken, the food wasn't good and took awhile to be served. I would definitely come back but hopefully they iron out some of the kinks from being a new hotel.", "I have a guilty pleasure. I LOVE staycations. I love having the opportunity to explore the city that you spend the most time in from a different view. I've been driving by watching Bobby Hotel being built for what seems like an eternity. I finally found the opportunity to snag a room over Memorial Weekend. This place is definitely not your average 4 star Marriott.... it is so much better! \n\nCheck in is supposed to be at 4pm, but our room was ready by 3. We dropped off our bags and decided to explore the hotel grounds. You can tell right away this is an older building, transformed into a super modern hotel. Everything was very clean. The hotel is also dog friendly! We didn't see any puppies when we checked in, but the following day we did see an adorable pup in the lobby. All of the hotel staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. You can tell the owner went above and beyond to hire a staff that represents this cool hotel vibe. Every single time we entered and exited the lobby, someone was there to great us and open the door. \n\nOur room was on the 5th floor and had an amazing view of 4th Ave. All of the bedroom goodies (TV, robe, mini fridge) were hidden away in a closet, I'm assuming to maximize space. The king bed was super comfy. At night I feel asleep in what seemed like minutes. \n\nThe bathroom has blurry glass walls. Parts of the glass in our room were completely see-through. Hope you are staying with someone you are comfortable with! You can definitely see and hear everything going on in that bathroom. \n\nThe hotel has a bar downstairs, but the weather was so nice we skipped that and ventured right upstairs to the rooftop bar. We were greeted by friendly (but busy) bartenders and chatted with people at the bar. We quickly found that we were not the only locals to come enjoy this trendy new bar. The view is absolutely amazing. A ton of people were taking pictures of the city. \n\nBobby Hotel screams Nashville. I will definitely be recommending this as the place to stay to anyone who wants to visit the city, but doesn't want to sleep in my cramped spare room.", "What a beautiful hotel! Great atmosphere and vibe from the time you walk in. The inside interior decor and design were beautiful. The drinks on the roof top is a reasonable price. Plenty of seating area to sit back and hangout with some friends. The rooftop will be a great place to hangout on a hot summer day. I can't wait to do a staycation and check out them rooms!", "All the trendy hipster fluff in the world can't replace internet that works (it never worked for 3 days), or a desk. There really isn't a proper desk at the Bobby. The furniture is not functional. Also, ridiculous prices at the hotel bar and restaurant. C'mon $10 Jameson (1 shot/pour)?!? Nashville may be hip, but this place is taking advantage \nGet the internet working, put AC plugs where people can see them, give them a proper space to work from, don't screw them at the bar/restaurant.\nI do have to say that all the staff is very kind, helpful and professional.\nVery vibey, but not functional. Depends on what you look for in a hotel...", "Went to the Bobby spa... they were excellent great relaxation massage and deep-tissue the ladies were superb and professional", "This hotel is so beautiful from every angle, inside and out. The view on the rooftop is amazing. Loved the touch of the bus on the rooftop. I need to stay here one night!!!\nThey basically have like 3 restaurants in there, one once you enter to the left there is a dine in with patio seating. I didn't look at the menu since it was closing. They also have a food on the rooftop bar but the kitchen was closed there as well so we dined in the first floor of the hotel which is for the Tavern It was so beautiful. The food was good and we got lucky bc they made an extra shrimp and grits and gave it to our table. And let me tell you that was some good shrimp and grits!!! Steak was cooked perfect and the sides really complimented the entree. I will definitely have to try other foods. Everyone must come here at least once. You will not be disappointed.", "I mean, come on! Coolest Hotel I've been to in quite a while. I loved the vibe, the room was huge and extremely well equipped. The staff couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. The less corporate boutique feel was perfect. The drinks on the roof were excellent and the breakfast in the cafe was really delicious. I can't wait to go back!", "One of a kind hotel! Best experience in Nashville! Great restaurant, cafe and rooftop bar, wonderful staff and spacious rooms!!", "They charge for internet and roll their eyes when you ask questions about tequila. It was 90+ degrees and one of their bartenders rolled her eyes when we asked for water. We know Nashville is a cash grab but yeesh." ]

[ "Went there 2 years ago, so can't say wahat it's like now. But when we went there with a group of people into an empty restaurant, we waited for nearly 1.5 hours for our meals and were served a side salad eacha nd when we asked about themeals, the one woman in our groupt hat went up to check on the meals, was told to sit doawn and wait, while brandishing a knife at her - we left while leaving the money for our salads\n\nNEVER AGAIN!", "Personally, I don't think it's fair to review a restaurant based on one visit two years ago, but that's just my opinion. This neighborhood favorite, located in a restored plantation style home, used to be little more than a beachside pizza joint, but it's now a good place to enjoy very good hearty food, prepared by a creative chef, at reasonable prices. I highly recommend the spaghetti with white clam sauce, the chicken with mushrooms and peppers, and the white pizza with asparagus, shrimp, and lots of garlic. We like to eat on the front porch if the weather isn't too hot and humid. They operate an ice cream store next door that features delicious tropical flavors. It can get noisy when it's crowded and parking is limited, but this definitely is worth a visit.", "Service is slow and staff don't appear to be trained. When you talk to TJ he has an attitude, I think he believes everyone is a tourist and he doesn't need to care or help. Well TJ, welcome to the internet, everyone has a voice and it's about time you listened. We've had to wait 75 minutes to get a drink and then another 30 minutes to order food, and that was just a table of 4. Last Friday we had to wait 80 minutes for pizza delivery and then he was rude when we called to find out where it was.", "I've only ever had pizza here and it's a little more expensive than most places on the beach for a pizza but it was really delicious. We got it take out, so I cant really speak to the service, but I would definitely come back here again for a sit down meal.", "Great food, good prices. The guitar music was a nice bonus. The place was very busy and the wait staff seemed a little overwhelmed, but it was a great dining experience.", "I love TJ's food! Everything is made fresh to order; you won't be eating meals just warmed up in a microwave, so don't mind the wait. It is well worth it. Their early pizza specials, and early bird specials offer very good deals if you find their full priced menu expensive. Personally I don't, considering quality and quantity.", "THE best pizza I have had in a LONG time. Forget about Pajanos, this place rocks. Awesome antipasto appetizer, and did I mention the pizza....ohhh my.\n\nWhile we were waiting on our pizza and chewing on our antipasto, the chef was nice enough to send out complimentary Oysters Florentine...what a guy.", "Went for the Cheese Steak and was not disappointed. Best part was the bread. It was all soft hot and crunchy at the same time, guess that's because it's BAKED ON SITE. Also tried the calamari. It was tender and the marinara was a tad spicy ( which I liked), it was also showered ever so slightly with fresh parm. That was a nice touch. This was my first time here and you can bet I will be back. Only wish... wish the beer selection was a little bigger.", "I've been going to TJ's for many years, and I absolutely love their food. The Old Fashioned Tomato Pie (a traditional Margerita pizza) is outstanding. We are moving away from Indian Rocks Beach soon so we wanted to go one more time. It was as good as ever and we were happy with the outside patio. Gone are the umbrellas for each table and they have a beautiful cloth canopy covering over the whole area, and added some fans. Nice touch.\n\nWe also got the goat cheese bruschetta appetizer, which was really impressive. Although, I'm not sure why the chef fried the whole basil leaf instead of leaving it fresh on top of the bruschetta. It removed all the flavor from the basil. Just a suggestion, but overall it was very tasty.", "Great pizza every time. Fresh crust. Can't beat the 50%off lunch pizza pricing either!" ]

Sam, the owner, really spent time talking to the customers and answered many of our questions about doing parties there. The happy hour is killer and we are excited to return and try their food!", "We will return (might increase stars) to this just opened restaurant. The \natmosphere and staff were very pleasant; open thru afternoon, so a leisurely late lunch was not a problem.\nWe had and recommend Arancini, eggplant mezze (fried with tomato sauce), cannelloni and mushroom risotto.", "The space is very nice and I enjoy the semi private booths. Short but good draft list, I especially enjoy the Murphy's Irish Stout. The wine list left a lot to be desired, short but adequate size glass list but the choices were mostly big name brands. We tried a white and a red, the red seemed to have been opened a bit too long, or just not good. Lamb sliders - good and much better with the sauce, my only complaint is that the bun was a bit too big for the filling and therefore a little difficult to eat. Carpaccio - fairly good for American carpaccio and loaded with capers and parmesan so it felt a bit more substantial. Lobster ravioli was a little fishy and the edges of the ravioli were a little thick and therefore undercooked. Overall flavor was quite nice though. Veal, unfortunately I can't remember if we got the cutlet or the marsala - it was a thin cutlet with what seemed to be a red pepper mushroom sauce. This was the least favorite of the night, the sauce tasted a bit like sweet and sour sauce. I will definitely return to try more dishes or just to have a nice Murphy's draft.", "Ya gotta check this place out!!!\nAwesome service and great food. Started with Arancini that was fabolous and moved on to the steak burger. I shall be back....", "Great, great dinner this evening . . . Pan D'Olive at 1603 McCausland - near the Olympia House Greek Restaruant in midtown St. Louis. Sam Kacar, owner, and previous owner of Trattoria Branica of Frontenac and Kirkwood, has created a masterpiece. We ordered the Pan D'olive flatbread (pizza) which comes with chicken, mushroom, olive, shaved parmigiano, spinach & pesto. Normally $10, but during Happy Hour - until 7 PM each evening during the week - only $5! Absolutely delicious!\n \nAlso had the Phylio Cigars - phyllo dough stuffed with feta and herbs - they were only $1 each during Happy Hour. Our great neighbors, Steve Gant and Emily Howard joined us too and had the mushroom risotto - cremini, porcini, arugula and also the baked cannelloni, consisting of bolognese & bechamel. Great atmosphere, absolutely delicious food, and service out-of-this-world! Get over there before it becomes VERY popular!!!!\n\nWe will be back soon and often . . . just such a great environment, amazing food, and Sam, the owner, has the BEST people skills of any restaurant in St. Louis, MO!!", "Located just down from Olympia on McCausland, Pan D'Olive has its own parking lot.

Tried a few different dishes with some friends, none of them were unique or interesting. Very average in every way.", "So far my boyfriend and I been here twice and it's quickly become one of our favorite new restaurants! Both times the staff and cuisine of Pan D'olive have been absolutely sensational. They were very accommodating and helped me out with my last minute New Years eve reservations and made sure the table was well taken care of, very helpful when making menu recommendations and always greet you with a smile. \n\nI particularly love the Phillo Cigars - but anything you try at Pan D'olive is guaranteed to be simple, yet thoughtfully crafted and full of delicious Mediterranean flavor :)", "Incredible lunch, that totally blew my New Years diet and I am totally fine with that. After lunch today, we can not wait to go back and experience their dinner menu. Pan D'olive may well be on its way to being a favorite. \n\nAfter receiving our ice tea, a basket of fresh house made breads and olive oil was served. The baguette was great, but the olive bread was the star of the basket. I'd love to know how Sam makes it, it is that good. The olive oil was very light, making it a perfect accent to the olive bread. \n\nWe then ordered two small plates; Calamari and Mussels. The Calamari was the best I have had in the metro area. So many other restaurants over cook Calamari, leaving to dried out and tough chew. Here it was done to perfection, it was tender and an easy chew. We also shared an order of Mussels. Yippee, I have another addition to my, \"I Want Mussels\" list. I could not resist the garlic, tomato, clam jus. The extra slices of baguette came in handy for soaking up the broth.\n\nOur two lunch entrees were true Mediterranean fare. I had the Grilled Salmon with lemon and capers with a side of sautéed spinach that would have made Popeye happy. The SO enjoyed the Trout which was Walnut Encrusted and also served with that amazing spinach that makes Popeye a strong man. I am not a fan of walnuts, but it added an incredible flavor to this trout. It almost made me nutty for this trout. \n\nWe were filled after our small plates, but pushed on and still enjoyed our entrees. Being truly filled after the entrees, we knew we couldn't stop. Being true Yelpers, it was our duty to try a dessert so our review of a new establishment was complete. I wanted Creme Brûlée, but the SO is over Creme Brûlée, so we went with the Hazelnut Tiramisu. Once again I am not a fan of nuts on my food, but I liked it. Normally I find Tiramisu to be too sweet, but not here. It had just the right amount of sweetness. Next time, I'm getting the Creme Brûlée and enjoy it all by myself. \n\nWhen I go back, I'm trying the Lamb Sliders.", "Great service + great food = return customers\n\nI recommend the house salad and the grilled pork chop. Coworkers also had house salads with either lamb burger or grilled salmon. Everyone left very happy.\n\nCan't wait to go back!" ]

Our server was really awkward and couldn't recommend anything, BUT it was a soft opening and the food definitely made up for that! \n\nWe had the fish dip for an appetizer. It was one of the best fish dips I've had! There was plenty of dip for all three of us, but it came with six pieces of cucumber, not enough to accompany the dip. I highly recommend it, but ask for extra cucumbers! \n\nI had the crab cake sandwich, my friend had the grilled mahi sandwich, and my other friend had the fish and chips. All of the entrees came with a lot of food! None of us finished our meals. The crab cake could have used some sort of sauce, it was a little bland, but the portion was huge and it was very good. All three of us would recommend our entrees! Two of us also got the sweet potato tots...DEFINITELY GET THEM! They were the perfect kind of sweet! \n\nDo not leave this place without getting dessert! There are two options and we had both. The bread pudding was, no exaggeration, the BEST bread pudding I have ever had! I do not like bread pudding usually, but this was phenomenal. It came with vanilla ice cream and covered in cinnamon. I will dream about this dessert. The second option was key lime pie. I LOVE key lime pie, and this was delicious, it came in a cup which was cool. I am allergic to nuts and the crust is crumbled nuts, so I just ate the key lime. This dessert was amazing, but i wouldn't ever leave without getting the bread pudding! \n\nI can't wait to go back and eat there again!!", "Bad, bad, bad. Do not waste your time going here. Prices are high for the quality of food they are serving. Service was extremely slow. They were out of several things that we tried to order. It took 40 minutes to get our food and they weren't that busy. Ordered the Grilled Salmon and the Wasabi Tuna. They both tasted horrible. Took half of our meals home with us but they tasted so bad that we ended up just throwing it away. Total waste of time and money. Never again.", "The food was great! We ordered crab cakes and chicken & waffles. The Cesar salad has a lot of dressing, which I like ;-)\n\nService was ummmmm...... Interesting. Server was as sweet as the day is long, but..... I'm not sure they required prior experience of their new hires.... \n\nThe manager really should check on customers. Also, manager should probably put a bit more time in to training. Little things like reminding servers to provide bread to each table.... Serve the salad before the meal... Bring the drinks before the meal....", "The food came out cold the first time, but very good when it was hot and fresh. The service was aweful, but the manager made up for it. The servers and manager are overwhelmed and inexperienced.", "First impression was not good. They were out of the signature appetizer, but sounds like this was a vendor issue. However, I ordered the Mahi with black beans and rice. Soggy, cold fries were substituted for the rice. I was not informed that there was no rice in the back, nor was I given a choice of what vegetable I could have as a substitution prior to my dinner being served. In addition, the servers and hostess crew were disorganized and confused. It took a long time to get out food. There were no apologies for the food or service from the staff. Having said this, other than the fries which I substituted broccoli for, the food was good. I would try again, but I hope that our next time will be memorable for all the right reasons.//\n\nSince original review have been back. I see some improvement has been made in service. Overall still about average on food, but glad to see them moving in the right direction.", "Wow, worst experience I have ever had. Service was extremely slow took an hour to get food and appetizers came out after food. My food came out 20 minutes later than everyone else's and my wife didn't get rice that was supposed to be a side, later told us they ran out but never offered her a different side. We were never offered bread they told me they ran out, yet I'm watching bread being delivered to other tables! The grouper I ordered (21.99) supposedly market fresh, tasted chewy.

The restaurant wasn't busy so they could have figured out a more comfortable seating arrangement but at that moment it wasn't really that big of a deal.\nI'm just going to write a list of the issues . . .\n- 11 chairs at the table - this was fixed once they were informed.\n- 7 place settings - we requested more, 4 different times. One of the times they said \"yeah, they're working on that.\" - what does that mean, I didnt ask for souffle, maybe they didn't have enough?\n- They had two servers servicing the table - Unfortunately they didn't communicate so half the table got their food and were finished eating before the other half got their food.\n- As soon as the other half of the table got their food one of the servers asks if we're ready for dessert. Once we stated that we just received our entree they ask if we're ready for our checks.\n- I personally ordered a caesar salad and was told they were out and had to order a different salad - when the food came out it included a caesar salad - this was actually good.\n- The servers never came back after the food was served.\n- As I said we were there for my nephews 9th bday and had brought a cake so we had to hunt down a different server to bring us plates and forks.\n- They arrived at the table with a plate and it was hot and the server couldn't get it off the carrier and was just standing there so I ended up offering to get it even though it was hot. Not a big deal but as soon as she saw it was too hot she should've gone back to the kitchen and got an oven mitt or napkin to get it served.\n- The food was okay, not bad, not great. We had the coconut onion rings and they were a little over battered but not a big deal. The chicken pasta and the crab cakes were good.\n- One person didn't get something they ordered and then just asked for it to be cancelled and removed from the check.\n- Since the servers never returned we were left with empty plates for a party of 12, finished appetizers and entrees left on the table. We ended up taking the empty plates and moving them to another table.\n- We had to ask for a togo box 3 times.\n- We explained we wanted separate checks when we were seated, before even ordering - they arrived with one.\n- When they arrived with the one check we asked for them to separate it - they returned with separate checks but they were all wrong.\n- We were seated in an area where we could see the register and it seemed like the staff just hangs out there while either waiting for the register or in between duties. This area had 5+ people in it for most of the night.\n\nAfter getting with the manager about separating out the checks the meal was comp'd but it really wasn't about the money.\nI know its a new restaurant and I can understand working out the kinks with the system and kitchen but just common sense. . .\n- If your staff isn't busy with their own tables have them help the other sections of the restaurant.\n- Ensure you have silverware prior to serving food - always, or don't bring out food.\n- Communicate with servers if you're sharing a big party - You should never have half of a table finish eating before the other half even gets their meal.\n\nManagement - really comes down to you guys, if you have inexperienced servers - train them or pair them with experienced ones.\n\nYou only have one time to make a first impression - we won't be coming back.", "The most horrible service I've ever witnessed!!!

Although it was slow, we had to wait 20 minutes for a server to take our drink order, the appetizer we ordered was not available, and they are also out of the beer we ordered. The meal was okay....just OK. There was not a manager in sight. Once again, not impressed.", "A disappointment to say the least. The food is not bad, just not what I hoped for, which was a great seafood restaurant in Brandon, FL. The wait staff is lacking, like many of the other posts I think they hired absolutely no one with prior wait experience. The service was just ridiculous and not in a good way. After our drink order was taken it was 10 minutes before the drinks returned and they were just dropped off and then he was gone. Another 5 minutes and he returns asking if we're ready to order, by this time I've read every word on the menu, so we ordered. So I ordered the Raw Oysters (I know never order shellfish in a month without a \"R\", so shoot me), the oysters were small, which was expected since they were out of season, but for as long as I've been eating oysters I've never seen them served without horseradish, and cocktail sauce, crackers, lemon, or even a cocktail fork. I think this goes to the lack of training for the wait staff. My wife ordered the Smoked Wahoo Dip, we've never had this before, and likely will not ever have it again. It was very fishy, and while I know it's fish dip it was way to fishy for my liking (maybe that's the way it's suppose to be). It took nearly 20 minutes for our appetizers to come out. For our entree, my wife order their Fish and Chips that they claim is one of their signature dishes, it was just okay. The fish was a bit on the greasy side and the fry were nothing special. Of course the Fish and Chip might have been fine, but it looked and tasted like it had sat under the heat lamp for awhile before being served. I ordered the Pasta Morada, which is described as \"large shrimp, scallops, clams, and calamari rings tossed in a fresh clam sauce over linguine with a touch of marinara\". It's priced at $21.99. What a joke, 3 shrimp, 3 scallops, I could not find any clams, and the calamari was tough as rubber and the only way I could tell the difference between it and the spaghetti was it was tough as rubber. Don't waste your time on this dish, until they get serious about not over cooking the seafood and bring the price down to where it should be maybe $15. Oh did I mention it took nearly 45 minutes for our food to come out after we ordered(?).\n\nThe manager never checked on us, he was too busy chatting it up with one table of four, it appeared to be his friends or family. It was painfully obvious the wait staff was under-trained and from the way the food was cooked perhaps the cook staff too.\n\nI'm sure we'll try it again in six months or so, I hope it improves." ]

[ "Its located conveniently just off Route 295 on Route 73. Owners are from South East Asia and hence the name of the restaurant. \n\nThey serve mainly two types of food:\ni) Sushi\nii) Singaporen-Malaysian\n\nI've been there twice in 3 weeks and I must say that its one of the best sushi places in this area. Sushi is fresh and good. Prices are competitive ($17 for 15 pieces of sashimi). The tuna carpaccio is very nice. Most of the patrons tend to gravitate towards the sushi menu. I think its probably due to the fact that the people around here are not familiar with Malaysian/Singapore cuisine yet and hence it will take time for that to change.\n\nAs for the Singaporean/Malaysian dishes - I've only had the opportunity to try one basic dish (was too full to eat when I arrived there). The menu does boast some of the well known Malaysian/Singaporean dishes (curries, roti canai, satay, curry puffs etc..). I'll definitely will have to give those a try as the nearest 'Malaysian' restaurant is in downtown Philly.\n\nAs for the chef/owners - they're very accomodating and nice. Always giving out free appetizers for people who wait for take out orders (or even to the regulars there). \n\nI personally think that given time and some publicity, this place will definitely do well and will be bustling with more patrons (they are still a relatively new restaurant).\n\nUpdate 8/29/07:\nOk I just came back tonight after giving the Malaysian/Singaporean dishes a try (needed a break from sushi). I'm upgrading the the Rating to 5 stars. I had:\n1) Chicken Satay - Its really good - and they use chicken thighs (the right way to make good satay). I'll be trying the beef satay the next time\n2) Chicken Rendang (dry chicken curry) - Felt like eating @ home in Malaysia. \n\nI must say that since I'll be coming here to NJ for the next few months for work, I'll definitely be spending at one night a week at this place as its just located near my hotel as there are so quite a few dishes to try.", "Simon and Lee are the best!!! What a great spot. We have eaten at a few other local spots and this FAR exceeds them. I drive 40 minutes once a week... Yeah it's that good.", "I can't say enough wonderful things about this restaurant! The food is fantastic - Everything is fresh and top quality. The owners are extremely nice people who remember your name even if it's been months between visits. They're very willing to help you choose something new off their fairly extensive menu, and have also been known to give free samples (yum!). The sushi is some of the best I've had in this area, and their menu selection ranges from Singaporean/Malaysian to more standard Japanese fare. The desserts are delicious (I've tried them all) and the Singapore iced tea is amazing! Honestly, regardless of what I've tried, I've loved everything! The restaurant is somewhat small, but it doesn't feel cramped -- In fact, the atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing - It's easy to spend hours lost in conversation and good food. Suffice it to say, I highly recommend Singapore - It's not to be missed!", "I've gotten takeout here a couple times, and think this place is a solid option. Their menu is one part sushi, the other part a hodegpodge of Malaysian/Thai/Japanese/ entrees.\n\nSingapore Restaurant has good sushi/sashimi, while the entrees feature big portions and are decent but didn't wow me (though there's plenty on the menu I haven't gotten around to trying). \n\nThe takeout's a bit on the slow side, so call ahead if possible. Singapore's run by a sweet old Asian couple, especially the friendly woman who will get you a complimentary snack while you wait for your order.", "I came here with my parents, and I have to say that the food is absolutely fantastic. Simon, the sushi chef, is so creative and incredibly talented. All of the appetizers on the menu are absolutely delicious, and the sushi options provide so many unique and different flavors. I don't think I've ever tried anything at Singapore I didn't like. I would highly recommend Singapore to anyone looking for delicious and beautifully crafted food.", "This place has the best sushi/sashimi I've ever had. I've been here a few times while visiting family, and it is always one of the highlights of the trips.\n\nSimon makes tasty, flavorful rolls that are artistically presented. The Green Dragon Roll is my favorites - it's so cute AND tasty! I don't know what he does to his avocados, but they are creamy and delicious. His rolls are well balanced, never too much rice, and from what I can tell, the fish is high quality.\n\nHe also makes very creative appetizers, a different one each time I've been there. One of my favorites is the Tuna Shumai - like butter! It's a play on traditional shumai with tuna instead of a dumpling wrapper.\n\nIn short, this place is awesome.", "Great place to eat! The sushi is awesome and the cheese cake is amazing. Everything was soooo good, great flavor in everything.", "The hidden gem of South Jersey for sushi. This place looks like nothing from the outside and when you enter, your surroundings really make you wonder whether it is okay to order raw fish from such a place. Well, I'm here on yelp to assure you.... it is. \n\nSingapore is great. The best spicy tuna rolls I have ever had and the entire menu is very reasonably priced. The staff is some of the friendliest around. Could probably use a larger soup selection but now I'm nit picking. If I got a call from a friend to meet for lunch over at Singapore, I would cancel any plans I had and be there. Highly recommended.", "Good sushi. Cute little place. Decent prices. Music played didn't fit the ambiance but was nice anyway.", "This place does not have much space, but boy oh boy is the food good here. While working in Jersey I ate here almost every day for dinner. They knew me by first name basis already :) \n\nI love how they greet you with a small concoction of salads. Its a small salad of anything, it could be lobster with shrimp or crab meat with ginger sauce... its endless. They give that out instead of the Miso Soup your probably used to when eating sushi. \n\nI was also fortunate enough to have tasted other items on their menu, spicey chicken, 3 meats, Crab Salad, all of their Sashimi and rolls including their specialty rolls. \n\nIts a small location but it really does a good job of taking care of you especially if you become a frequent visitor. I came just about every night and talked with their Chef and had a great time always. I'll be back!!!!!!!!!!" ]

[ "A very unique experience! We went there a few weeks after it opened for our anniversary and it was a really good time. They have a very good salad bar, but try not to take advantage of it. The real attraction is the meat. You get a coaster-like sign that signals the waiters roaming the dining room if you want them to stop at your table or not. If the green side is up, they cycle thru to offer you various cuts of meat ranging from filet mignon and prime rib to pork and bacon wrapped chicken. There really is no menu other than to explain the different cuts of meat available and it's all you can eat. Be aware that any and every addition to your basic meal which is the salad bar and meat, is added cost, like the after dinner liquor for $7. The meal itself was very good and reasonably priced, but after a few drinks and dessert, it did get a little pricey. The dining area is also very crowded and with the tables placed so close together, felt a little cramped. Not the quite romantic dinner for two we expected, but the atmosphere is fun and unique and glad we went. It's the not the kind of place we'll go to regularly, but uniqueness of it certainly will have it on our list for fun (if a bit pricey) night out with out of town guests.", "I've frequented a couple of times this interesting Brazilian Steakhouse establishment, a.k.a. Boizao. Love their Salad Bar, very fresh with a good selection of items from which to choose. Their dinner rolls are also very good, and their smoked selection of meats are well prepared. I recommend going for lunch and getting the pork (sausage and cutlet) and chicken - two meat selection option. Otherwise the price is too high. This place is good for two or more, and ideal for a holiday office gathering. \n\nI should also mention that they are a bit sneaky when is comes to tallying your bill...so check your bill - They charged me a 20% gratuity for a party of four and for the wrong lunch selection. Remember, this is a buffet-style restaurant. Manager was a bit cocky and should have just apologized. I will forgive them and give them another try next time I'm in Tampa.", "Not bad for a Brazilian steakhouse in Tampa (If this were in a city such as Chicago or San Francisco, where there are more Brazilian Steakhouses, this would probably be average or below average). I've been there two times so far and I find that their salad bar which includes smoked salmon, cheeses, and some warm items is more exciting than their meat selections. Of course, you're coming here for the meat and I'd rate the meat quality and taste, 7.5 - 8.0 out of 10. \n\nI was disappointed to learn that Boizao does not serve plantains. Instead, they serve breaded (fried?) banana. My guess is that they do this because bananas are much cheaper. \n\nThey also do not serve baked pineapple (which is purported to have enzymes to help with digesting meat!). If they can add plantains and pineapple, I'd give it 4 stars. \n\nFor dinner, expect to spend at least 60 dollars a person.", "Overcooked, worse than dog food quality, waaaay over salted, stringy, tough, butter soaked, under and over seasoned, dry meat. The waitstaff were extremely attentive and accommodating. For the cost of eating and drinking here, I would have expected some type of minimum dress requirement, but I guess that's just the low class Floridian way.", "This was my first experience at a Brazilian restaurant. The salad bar had nice quality vegetables. Make sure you don't fill up on those. I agree with another post that the meat was way too salty. They use the coarse salt and must throw it on by the handfulls. With some bites you get so much salt it burns your tongue. And, they start out with the cheap cuts of meat to fill you up. At the very end, when you are full, they bring out the filet. Some of the cheaper cuts were very tough. There was 15 people in our group. Some must have liked it because four of them went back 2 nights later. I passed on that opportunity.", "the salad bar alone is worth the trip. i made the mistake of loading my belly on artichokes, hearts of palm, and mushrooms before the meat showed up.\ni found that they start with the OK meats and work their way up to the really nice stuff, which is to be expected. but i was a little annoyed when the filet showed up and i was full. but, with that said, everything i had was completely yummy. the sides were awesome too - try those cheezy breads! mmm. \none complaint - there was bacon on everything. why?\nmy dining experience was fun and delicious, i'd definitely go back. best steaks in tampa!", "I have to admit, the food is terrific. Service is so-so. However, lately I have been changing my mind about going back, and tonight was the last straw. When you pull up to the restaurant, they usually have valet. They will tell you that the valet is complimentary, but it isn't because you are supposed to tip. That, I don't mind. However, I don't like to valet park my car. I insist on parking my own car. I have had problem with valet damaging my car in the past. Tonight, I was joining three other people for a birthday dinner. I pulled up and told the valet guy that I wanted to self-park my car. He told me that I couldn't because the \"self-park lot\" was filled. Even though I told him that I really would rather not valet my car, the valet guy told me I couldn't. I know the answer is BS. He is just looking for $$. So, when we walked out of the restaurant to leave, I told the valet that I wanted to retrieve my own car. He told me that I couldn't. That really made me mad. So, when I left I called the manager. He basically made excuses as to why I was wrong. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! If you don't have enough parking for your customers, that is your problem not mine. Also, the service tonight was awful. My little sister was there and she was charged full price for her meal, which was wrong. We told our server of the mistake, and it was taken care of. Then, they put the wrong desserts on the wrong bills. It was just a mess. But, the thing that was the last straw was the valet. He was lucky I had cash on me to tip him. My friend went to the restaurant last weekend, was forced to valet park her car, and when she started to pull away to leave, the valet guy knocked on her window and said, \"Maam, we work off tips.\" She had to explain that she didn't have any cash on her because she never anticipated being required to valet park. I thought that was the rudest thing I ever heard. Also, I think they raise and lower the price whenever they feel like it. I just went about a month ago and it was $10.00 per person less then than tonight. And, they add auto gratuity to the bill and don't even tell you (even with just two people). Luckily, I always review my bill.", "I can't believe this place only has 2 1/2 stars! When I'm home visiting my parents, we always come here, and it is by far one of my favorite places to dine in Tampa.\n\nI'll admit that I am not educated at all on what Brazilian food or a proper Brazilian BBQ should be. But I am a meat-lover, and I was very surprised to see people complaining about the quality of the meat here, because I've always been thoroughly satisfied. Their salad bar is also incredible, and their little cheese rolls are addicting, I can easily finish off a whole basket by myself!\n\nAlso, their signature dessert, the papaya cream, is a perfect end to what will inevitably be an extremely heavy meal. It's light and not too sweet, just perfectly refreshing. It's the perfect cure for a red-meat hangover.\n\nI love this place, and really couldn't recommend it more. Like I said before, I can't speak at all for Boizao's authenticity, but with so much food that's so delicious, who cares?", "This is one of my favorite restaurants here in Tampa. \n I'll try to eat here at least once a month, and every time i visit I get exceptional service. \nMy wife also loves coming here for the Salad bar and desserts, which makes this place perfect for our date nights.", "Oh, dear. Es no fun complaining, so I will make it short. It was not a busy night, there were 6 of us, and we were ready to spend all night eating and drinking. Some of us had sort of _fasted_ that day in preparation for copious meat consumption, you know? Alas, it was not to be. The salad bar was alright (except that I really don't like salad bars), and the bread was good. It was a little strange that they brought out the vegetables as soon as we sat down with our salad plates--a little bowl of mashed potatoes, and another of fried plaintains--long before we were ready. That was generally the theme of the service that evening, let's see how fast we can move this group along...and for a group that was in the mood to make a night of it, that was just not the right pose to strike.\nThe meats: the sirloin was good, the lamb was not, the chicken so-so. And I really don't want to say anymore: after all, it could have been a bad night. But bad luck for them to have one when a hungry group of foodie people show up. People that talk about food--and where they had a great meal. Instead, we went home, deflated and disappointed. \nBoizao, you missed your chance." ]

[ "My husband and I came here on a Sunday morning. It appeared to be very busy but we decided to stay anyway. They had coffee and tea while you waited so that was a nice touch! We were seated probably within 10 minutes or so. The staff was very nice and friendly and the food was delicious!! We'll definitely be going back!!", "This place is a decent greasy spoon. They seem to focus on Breakfast. The place was exactly what I expected. It's basically a diner that makes a good traditional breakfast. It's not anywhere near the quality of Goldy's but it is sufficient.", "If you look up 'Greasy Spoon' in the dictionary, chances are, you'll find a picture of Express Cafe right alongside the definition. \n\nNothing flashy at all, just a room filled with bright florescent lights, cheap silverware, friendly servers who've likely worked there for 20+ years, and not a single item of fruit to be found anywhere on the menu. If you're trying to eat healthy, look elsewhere. But if you're looking for a meal that's bound to slay even the mightiest of hangovers, pay 'em a visit. \n\nWith breakfast items like biscuits and gravy, country omelettes, waffles, pancakes, hash browns and the like... it's the kind of wake-me-up that's sure to make you want to take a nap about 45 minutes later. Great if you're planning on watching the entire Star Wars trilogy with the remainder of your day, but if you have any important business to attend to, stick to the home pantry for brain food like oatmeal or blueberry yogurt.", "I've been to this restaurant at least 30 times in the past 10 years... When we have the day off of work and we want a nice filling breakfast or lunch, this is the place we go.\n\nLove their scrambled eggs, soda is awesome, waiters are always friendly, but the best thing is the homemade donuts right when you walk in the door.\n\nRead the daily paper, watch the people come and go and enjoy the meal. \n\nWISH they were open for dinner!", "Good, fresh breakfast in a diner atmosphere. I had the chicken fried chopped pork patty (not it's real name but I can't remember so... that's what it was) that was crispy, flavorful and tender.", "one of my absolute faves! GREAT PRICES, LOVELY FRENCH TOAST!", "After reading the reviews, we decided to try this place out. We ordered takeout. When we called in the kid that took our order sounded confused over everything we asked for (toast, eggs - sunny side up, hash browns and french toast). They were fast. They said it'd be ready in 5-10 min. When I arrived to pick it up I think I dealt with the same kid. When I asked him how much he looked confused and then when I gave him a $20 he didn't seem to know what to do with it and I wondered if he knew to bring me the change. I get home and the eggs were scrambled, they forgot the toast and the french toast came with no syrup! The food wasn't anything to brag about but filled us up. I would consider going in and ordering and trying it out in house but would never order out from there again. The customer service that we received deserves NO stars. I'm giving 2 stars because the food didn't taste bad, it just was mediocre. I've had better and will probably seek out another diner/cafe if I decide I want a little breakfast fix and am not in the mood to cook. $15 was way too much money for what we received and our experience.", "My wife and I have been here around 5 or six times now. The service has always been fast and friendly, and the food is great, especially for the price. There are other places to go for breakfast in Meridian but this is the only place we go!", "My new favorite place to eat. Always good. Always fast. Always friendly!", "Usually when I go out for breakfast I use chicken fried steak and eggs as a benchmark for how good the place is. You can tell in one bite if the chicken fried steak or gravy is pre-packaged junk. Not here. Also in my eyes a skilled line cook should be able to make sunny-side up eggs with all the yolk runny and none of the whites. I very...very rarely find this but they hit my second mark here. I love nothing better than sopping up a mix of gravy, yolk, and tabasco on toast at the end of my meal. Coffee was never more than half empty. But that's just the food. \n\nThis place has been here for over 20 years and you can tell. Not because it's worn down and dirty (which it isn't) but because you can see a steady stream of regulars in and out of the door. You can tell they've been coming here for over 20 years with their families and friends. Great small town feeling in this place and the staff is warm and welcoming. Quite possibly the best meal I've had in Boise." ]

I tried the veggie omelet which has onion, mushroom, spinach, and green peppers. It comes with a side of potatoes and toast. I substituted in the cinnamon roll, which was somewhat disappointing (and not a true substitute as they charged me without saying they would). The omelet was delicious - the ingredients seemed fresh and the onion had gotten just mushy enough for me. It was a nice place - not my favorite but still quite yummy.", "superb, priced right BYOB. Went here on a friday night for dinner, arrived at 7:30 and only waited 5 minutes to be seated. I went with the waiters suggestion for the entree and he was right! It was the most delicious salmon dish ever. The special lobster crab over capellini and equally the chicken with portabello and artichoke dishes that my guests had were as delicious. There gave nice portions but still had plenty of room for the fried cheesecake with ice cream which was over the top. Great wait service too. Fabulous dining experience , highly recommend.", "Ryan Christopher's (formerly Caviston's) is simply the best restaurant in Narberth. They've got great food, whether it's brunch, lunch, or dinner. Everything on the menu is terrific, the prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is welcoming. The servers are all nice, and you're likely to end up sitting near your neighbors because it seems like most of Narberth ends up in this adorable BYOB on a regular basis.

So check it out next time you're in the neighborhood.\n\nFYI - If they have a dessert tray when you go, order one of everything!", "What a great surprise!\n\nWe remember way back in the day when it was Lou's.

It's been beautifully redone and updated, any trace of Lou's is pretty much gone other than the re-done lunch counter...\n\nWe stopped in for lunch today. The meal was really great! I had an Asian pork sandwich and the wife had a Turkey sandwich that pretty much looked like Thanksgiving on a roll! Both items were superb as well as the mushroom barley soup that we shared. The french frys, both regular & sweet potato were awesome! We saw the dessert tray and all available items looked fantastic and very edible, hand crafted, not the thawed junk that a lot of places will put out, especially for the lunch period!

We had a luncheon that included salad, guest choice of a crab cake sandwich, chicken parm with a side of pasta or a turkey waldorf panini. The guests all raved about the food. Not only the taste but the presentation was perfect! The waitresses were all so nice, they treated us like we were family. The atmosphere is very comfortable and inviting. It's the perfect place for a special lunch or dinner party.", "We are new to Philly and the Mainline so this place is still funny to me. It is in the middle of a neighborhood and it looks just like the surrounding houses. The main draw of this place is the food. We've only been for breakfast but it is fantastic. I do not understand how this place does not make the various \"best of\" lists that you read in Philadelphia magazine etc. The wait staff seem like a bunch of local high school kids and are subsequently inattentive at best but the quality of the food more than makes up for it.", "I wanted to go here since it opened because I drive by it four times a week on the way to the bustling metropolis of Narberth. I also tend to like BYOB's. Then I read the reviews and they were good, so off we went. Well I don't think Ryan Christopher's is that great. \n\nMe and my wife got there 5 minutes early for our reservation. It was very busy and the place is quite small. We were there for breakfast once when it was called Caviston's so we knew it was a small spot. There is no hostess area so when you walk in you just find yourself looking around the room for someone, anyone. There were people in black scampering everywhere. We apparently picked the wrong person to talk to and found ourselves standing around for almost 20 minutes. In between she told us we would have the next available table. That was the last we spoke to our black dressed friend as we became invisible, only a floating bottle of wine remained where we once were. \n\nAfter finally sitting down we began the \"Meh. I've experienced better.\"\nWe had the spring rolls as an appetizer and they were ok. The plum sauce that came with it was quite good. I ended up getting the soft shell crabs. I haven't had them in so long that I really couldn't compare them to anything. After eating them I can say that I wouldn't order it again. I just didn't like them. I thought I did at the beginning of the meal but toward the end I just wanted the crabs to become a hamburger. \n\nNow the desert kicked some butt...oh wait our waitress. Yeah that's about how much contact we had with her other then her taking our order. A speed walk \"How is your meal!\" like being shouted out of a moving car was a pleasant treat. \n\nAnyway the desert was \"bangginn!....yO thAtz wuZ $4$ mY girlZ 4eyEZ!\nI had the pineapple/coconut cheese cake and it was great. It was light and tasty and the best part of the meal other then trying to figure out how much younger we were then the other patrons. My wife had the turtle cheesecake. It was really good as well but it was just a huge slice that was very rich. \n\nI was just disappointed about the whole situation from start to finish but I had fun with my wife so we win, you lose.", "I love this place!

What a nice surprise!!\nWe split the hummus dish which came with multigrain pita....excellent!\nEntrees were the cranberry crusted salmon with sweet potato hash (a must if you like fish). My husband had the grilled veal parmigiana which he thougherly enjoyed. Ask for side of red sauce and also ask for the olive oil infusion for the bread!!!\nOkay here is the best part...All homemade desserts....We had the SNICKERS PIE! ! OH MY GOD, ONE OF THE BEST DESSERTS I'VE EVER HAD! I can't wait to try the others!! \nRun don't walk there!!", "This is the kind of place that you want to have in your neighborhood.\n\nOh wait, we do! We have been here on numerous occasions - with kids and without - and have never been disappointed in the food. The service runs the gamut - but they try. I certainly didn't ever feel deserted, it's just not the quickest dinner (which really, if you are in such a rush, go out for fast food!).\n\nIt's great that you can BYO - certainly makes this a very affordable meal. Our first time there we chatted it up with the owner-wife as we sat at the bar. She was so proud of the food that she brought us extra stuff from the kitchen just to taste - very endearing. \n\nTheir pasta dishes are fantastic. We had scallops that were done with an Asian twist that were very memorable. Oh, and the desserts...save room. They are as tasty as the are beautiful. We did not care too much for the key lime pie, as it was too sweet (we are tart key lime pie eaters) - but I will happily try something else next time we are there. \n\nThis is a great place to bring kids - sitting outside you don't feel like you are infringing on anyone's meal and they were very accommodating. My son's chicken fingers were actually real chicken breast that had been breaded - not greasy, soggy lumps of breading. Impressive. \n\nThis is not a fancy-schmancy place, nor is it trying to be.

Hopefully this will get better with continued experience. \nRestrooms and seating are available and the menu choices are varied and many.", "they may be a bit slow, but the ice cream speaks very loud and is worth the wait. I have seen over 10 cars waiting to get that good stuff . I will wait for a good quaility ice cream.", "I actually aged a year waiting in line at this place....seriously, they are so slow it reminds me of molasses in winter (up north.)\n\nBut these little twisty treats are so worth it...first, the prices are so amazingly cheap compared to the stone and marble places in the area.\n\nThe ice cream / frozen yumminess is creamy and delicious. Not just a flavor or two, but the whole place. I almost want to sit on the roof and eat the big ice cream looking building.\n\nJust pick and off time to go...like a Tuesday morning in January.", "There's often a line but I don't mind the wait. There's an army of teens working inside so the order do come out fairly fast once you placed it. \n\nTheir regular ice cream includes strawberry, vanilla and chocolate. You can also order from a few dozen of specialty flavors, like pina colada, blueberries, espresso, etc. They also have twirls which is like Dairy Queen's Blizzard. They have several cones to choose from.\n\nI love their ice cream, it's very creamy and smooth. I usually like to pay 50 cents more for the specialty flavor, there are so many to pick from I always have a hard time deciding. However, I don't know if it's the lack of consistency with the staff about how much syrup to add. One time my espresso is really flavorful, another time I can hardly tell the pina coloda in mine.", "There were two service windows open when we walked up. One had like 20 people in line the other had 2. So doing basic math I was served almost immediately. Why on earth so many people wanted the longer wait...Idk.\nI had vanilla with cherry hard topping and it was just as blissful as I remember it from my childhood Town N Country Twistiee Treat location. That hard cherry topping is just perfect with that cool, smooth, silky vanilla.\nHubby had medium twistiee with Reese cups. He had more than half to take home. Our friend had a vanilla cone with chocolate sprinkles, she loved the smooth silkiness of the vanilla. \nOverall, great childhood memory revisited. \nThanks!", "Much better the second and third time around, but the line is still rather slow and the gap between ordering some items and receiving them seems longer than necessary. \nGood atmosphere, though, with shaded seating and a variety of good menu choices.", "They have so many ice cream/dessert choices that they must have something for everyone! They serve out of two windows, but they have more staff in the back to make the orders, so even when the line is a little long it's not a very long wait. \nI'm a traditionalist when it comes to ice cream so I have a soft vanilla on a sugar cone with rainbow sprinkles. It was just the way it's supposed to be: not so soft it melts right away and they roll the cone in the sprinkles for maximum sprinkle-ness. \nMy friend had a blizzard-like ice cream concoction and it was really good. They had lots of options and the portions are big. \nIf you don't like ice cream or have a lactose issue, they have lots of flavored slushies too.", "Okay, this is a really mixed review. My wife and I love the ice cream here and the prices are very fair. The service IS AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL! They hire teenagers (which is fine) but they DO NOT CARE! \n First time I went there was a decent line,(no big deal) my wife order for the two of us and they gave her order to her imidiatly. ( which was awesome) However, they didn't give me my order (not as awesome) so we moved over to the side to let people order. After waiting and seeing other people get their orders after me I knocked on the window and asked for my ice cream. The reply I got was \"we aren't taking orders from this window.\" I had to tell them I ordered 5 min ago and nothing came out for me, only for my wife and they looked confused and made me my order.\n Second time my wife and I decided to use the drive through, it was a really hot day and we were looking forward to ice cream but I was thirsty and wanted some water. They tried REALLY REALLY hard to get me to buy a bottle of water, but this is against what I personally believe so I declined and when I did they informed me that they would be giving me tap water. No problem. I get to the window and pay, they give me my ice cream and a small Styrofoam cup (please if you read this use recycled cups). I tried the water and it was HOT, like from the hot tap, and no ice. I asked them and they told me they don't give ice with water! WHAT!???? I tell them that the water is HOT and not just tap water, again being teenagers they were easily confused. I told them not to bother and left. \n\nTL DR Great Ice cream, HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE service. \n\nUpdate: I added a star as I have gone back and the service was fair.", "Twistee Treat in Tarpon Springs is a super great place to get dessert! The ice cream tastes great and they have so many different flavor and toppings it's hard to choose. \n\nThey are more than generous in their serving sizes, and the prices are super reasonable. You can eat there, or take it to go, and they offer both walk up and drive thru options. \n\nThe best part? They're amazingly friendly, even when they're crazy busy! My kids and I have ONLY had good experiences here and will definitely keep coming back.", "After a -really- long day, the husbeastie and I decided we'd stop for a treat.. We've waited to visit the Twistee Treat because there's -always- a long line. The line today was not terrible, but it still existed in the drive thru. \n\nOur order was simple, A dish of Strawberry and a medium vanilla dipped in chocolate cone. We were both surprised at how large the servings were. Sadly the cone had alredy started to melt when they handed it out to me. *le sigh* \n\nThe ice cream was delicious, very smooth and creamy. I will certainly have it again, Diet permitting." ]

[ "Holy cow, I am so glad I stumbled upon this place. The food here is better than anything I've ever eaten in the French Quarter (and I'm not exaggerating). The seafood cheese dip, shrimp and grits, and seafood fettuccini were all incredible! I plan to stop here first and foremost the next time I stay in Midcity. Seriously, bravo to the chef here! He knows how to cook!", "Reallllyyyy good food!!! My husband and I had the boiled crawfish, BBQ shrimp, a bowl of gumbo, and bread pudding. All so delicious!!! So glad we stumbled upon this place. Hands down superb food! Amazing experience", "This place is awesome. Great staff too. Get away from the tourist areas and get some real New Orleans food here!", "Great customer service and it felt like home! If you can, try the bread pudding! So yum!!!!", "Omg! Only 11 days young. Working bugs out, so we we're told. But, it was a great find. The staff is awesome. We are told that the menu is a trail. But I say keep it. The BBQ shrimp is slightly sweet with a nice subtle heat. The shrimp and grits were awesome. So creamy, I thought it was something else. Delicious. The shrimp stew on a bed of white rice. Again fantastic. Prices were a pleasant surprise. I hate to say it, but I'd pay more. We will definitely be back.", "We were gonna eat next door at Neyow's next door per recommendations from a local but the wait was so long and it was pouring and we were hungry and ate here. Food wasn't bad, but we probably don't know the difference since we're not from around here. I'm sure a local could name several places similar to this that are better. The service was terrible. We had a table near the kitchen and I kept looking back into the kitchen and would see employees just bantering and not doing shit. It took way too long to get our food. I also had to ask for paper towels THREE TIMES before someone brought them. Horrific service.", "Oh, the challenges of finding lunch on Lundi Gras! Too long a wait at Lil' Dizzy's, Willie Mae's, and Neyow's; Bayou is right next door to Neyow's and they had plenty of room. That always makes me wonder, you know, but we weren't disappointed.\n\nFor some reason, I've been craving fried chicken this trip. It was miserably chilly and gloomy today, and Bayou offered red beans and rice with a side of fried chicken-they read my mind!- for a ridiculous $11. The RB&R are solid, but oh, that chicken! The crust is pretty thick and crunchy, and not at all greasy. The breast meat is tender and juicy, and also not aggressively seasoned, which I like-I want to taste the chicken, not 11 herbs and spices! \n\nWhat cost them a star, unfortunately, was our server. I know, it's the day before Mardi Gras and every service industry person in the city is ready to run screaming for the nearest beach. But while all the other staff were smiling and friendly, this girl just wasn't feelin' it. She had to go to the bar twice to ask about what was available, and didn't seem happy about having to do it. She wasn't unpleasant, but just not up to the standard of warmth you expect in New Orleans. The food, however, definitely is.", "I stopped in on a Saturday night and we were seated right away. We ordered the crab cakes, shrimp and grits, and the seafood fettuccine. All were so good!!!\n\nThe crab cakes were seriously just delicious lumps of crab with no filler stuff taking up space like most restaurants have. \n\nShrimp and grits was really flavorful and not too spicy which I like because I'm pathetic and can't handle spicy food\n\nThe fettuccine was amazing and comes in a big portion so I had enough leftovers for a whole meal later on. The seafood fettuccine is a must-have. \n\nOur server, Alvin, was sweet, funny and so knowledgeable about the menu. Prompt, courteous service. Give that man a raise! \n\nI'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in New Orleans", "CRAWFISH! \nStumbled on this spot accidentally after the nearby place we had intended to go to didn't have crawfish boil. After our other place fell through, we circled back to this one, remembering they had a sign out front advertising crawfish. We are so glad we did! The crawfish had amazing flavor, and a great kick of spice. We also tried their fried chicken, and mac and cheese. The chicken was perfectly battered, crisp, and juicy. The mac and cheese was excellent, with rich, homemade flavor. Everything was seasoned perfectly. Prices were very reasonable, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Nice indoor seating with a wall of big windows - great for feeling like you're dining outdoors, while still enjoying the AC! There were also a few outdoor tables outside the restaurant, in the front along the sidewalk.\nWe found out they just opened recently. We are so thankful that our dumb luck led us to this hidden gem. I doubt it will stay hidden for long!", "What an absolutely incredible experience. Call me dramatic but this was the best restaurant I have ever been to in the 23 years of my living and it's not from the food alone. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed by a man who I believe was the owner, Alvin. He took us to our table and as we ordered drinks he made conversation with us. When we were not sure on what to get he asked one of the waitresses to bring out samples of drinks we might like and he surprised us with a huge plate of crawfish. My friends and I were new to the area and have never experienced eating seafood such as this so he gave us a little lesson on how to eat crawfish lol. We ordered our food which, by the way, was very affordable especially for seafood. When the food started coming, we were all amazed by how big the portion sizes were and the aesthetics of each dish. And my god...the food was INCREDIBLY amazing. The flavors were all so unique and as Alvin had mentioned, everything was made to order so it was incredibly fresh. We all got dishes to share including the BBQ shrimp appetizer, shrimp alfredo, gumbo, jambalaya, shrimp and grits, and the fried chicken with Mac and cheese. Jambalaya was deff our favorite, but we did not have a single complaint about any of the food. In the middle of our meal too, Alvin brought out a sample of crawfish bisque he wanted us to try because it was his favorite and that was also amazing. At the end of the meal, he talked to us about how the place has only been open for 3 weeks, and discussed his plans on how he wanted to expand the menu. He ended our experience by giving us some complimentary bread pudding to share amongst all of us, which was also amazing. \n\nNot sure if Alvin spent so much time entertaining us because it was a new joint and he wanted us to spread the news of this place, but regardless we were all blown away. No doubt will I be coming back to this place in NOLA and I will for sure tell every person I know that they need to stop by here if they're ever in town." ]

The best part about this Green Pizza Franchise is the option for gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan options! Plus they use recycled materials for the table, the bar, and menus. The personal pizza is pretty big also and a very good price! An Amys Pizza can run you almost $10 at a store, here you get even a better pizza and bigger for $8! The appetizers rock try the stuffed mushrooms & the meatball sliders. Overall excellent!", "Great food and a great concept. I can't give it 5 stars though, because the service wasn't the best. They're friendly, but still working out some service issues. We had to wait quite a while for our food order to be taken. I'm sure they'll be able to work through this though.", "Love this place, can't wait to go back and try another pizza! Get the large pizza, you'll want the leftovers!", "We ordered over the Internet. Pizza was ready right at the time promised. Very, very good .", "Hi, thanks for making sure your tables are clean. And by making sure they're clean, I mean....well....Oh, wait. They weren't clean. Every table that wasn't occupied (so all but 3) were covered in crumbs and dishes.\n\nThe staff stood and stared, gape-mouthed at us for about two minutes before doing anything. They seemed to be rather busy discussing to complexities of how to clean tables. Like, should we move the plates first or the silverware? And then, like, how do we wipe up the crumbs??? Oh nooooo, ugh.\n\nSo you know, after a few minutes we confirmed that, yes. We are a party of two. The party of two that entered the restaurant after us also confirmed that they were a party of two. And then the waitress said \"So....six of you?\"\n\nCOME ON. COME ON. How do you have a job if you can't add? Furthermore, how do you have a job if you fail to notice that my party of two has been in the restaurant for longer and is not associating or even standing near the OTHER party of two? COME ON. \n\nThe menu is beyond boring and uninspiring. Whoa, cheese pizza? Whoaaaaa pepperoni. OMG NO WAY a Greek pizza? With olives? How cray-cray! And let me just say that ONE freaking vegan pizza does not a vegan restaurant make. If you're vegan and good at being a vegan, you know there are so many other options in Tampa that can do it better and cheaper. \n\nThe dough on the pepperoni pizza tasted frozen and the pepperoni was actually really gross. And I looooove me some sliced tubular meat. The cheese blend was pretty decent, and I was a fan of the tomato sauce. \n\nAnd to those who are OHHHH MI GAWD GLUTEN FREE...I hope your delusional hipster asses noticed that the sausage isn't gluten free. Know why? Cuz it's made with fillers. So please just go live on a remote island somewhere and take your idiotic fad chain restaurants. Yeah, Pizza Fusion is an effing franchise. How trend setting. \n\nWhat concerns me most is the false belief that a chain restaurant that overcharges for mediocrity is somehow better than an independently owned busines. It's time people riding on the back of the \"organic\" movement get their heads out of their asses because it's become so suburban and mainstream that I might as well be eating at a damn Applebees, except the people sitting next to me at a place like Pizza Fusion are more annoying because they are so self-righteous and believing that they are treating mother earth right by eating this pizza. Come ON. \n\nThe only reason to come here, really, is to drink. Their beer selection is good and affordable. And the service, though awkward, isn't inherently bad like some places.", "Promising concept. Execution poor. Pizza came out and the wifes behaved like it wasn't fully cooked.

Their lunch special of a personal pepperoni or cheese pizza and a salad is priced just perfect at $5.95, it is plenty of food to fill you up and it is delicious! Their meatball sliders, big kahuna pizza, and their trio dips appetizer are so tastey!! We love eating there. They have the multi-grain crust options and also serve a variety of tea! The atmosphere is great and the service is also great! Pizza Fusion is new to the downtown Tampa area, but should prosper well!! It is great for kids, family or a casual lunch with friends! I highly recommend trying Pizza Fusion at Skypoint. It is a great spot for pizza and salad!!! Enjoy!!", "Ok so I work around downtown and I was really excited when Pizza Fusion opened. I went there twice for lunch, the first time I went it took forever to get my single person pizza, someone who came later than me got there pizza and salad before I did (granted I did ask for a specialty pizza but still). I decided to go back because I thought Hey they are new maybe they are still trying to get things situated well I went there again for lunch and got the lunch special for 5.95 (pizza and salad) but still the waiter never came around when I needed more water and wanted the check. \nThen I went there again today but I decided to call in from work and order it so that I just had to go in, pick it up and go, so I didnt have to deal with their horrible slow service. \nIts really sad because there pizzas are really tastey and the location is great and I love the outdoor seating but going there and dealing with their service is just terrible. \nWell when I called in I got a hold of this lady and she put me on hold, well I was on hold for a while and no one ever got back to me, so I hung up then I had to re call them and finally got some guy to place my order (which went quickly, so I have no idea what happned the first time) \nThen when I got there, they forgot my drink so I asked for it and they gave me the wrong drink, then I told them that and the guy (very rudely) said that it just said tea on the order slip and not tropical fruit tea...umm thats not my fault...it took a while but I finally got my lunch...but was it worth all that trouble? and having to deal with rude, slow, service? no, its not...the food isnt THAT great to have to put up with all that \n\nSo in other words, the service is terrible and sadly its just not worth going there.", "A fuel-efficient Hummer.\n\nCrazy, right? Hummers were never meant to be fuel-efficient. Nevertheless, they are rolling off GM's assembly lines.\n\nA healthy pizza.\n\nCrazy, right? When God invented pizza, I don't think He meant for it to be a healthy food. Nevertheless, Pizza Fusion is making healthy (healthier*) pizzas.

I ate here over the weekend during the Cigar City Criterium and was pretty impressed by the quality--especially the freshness--of the pizza.\n\nAnd a random/embarrassing/weird side note: be sure to wash your hands before you eat here because Pizza Fusion has the most AWESOME hand dryers I've ever seen. Way better than Dyson or Xlerator. They use the Blue Storm dryers (http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Free-Blue-Storm-Dryer/dp/B002VURTOC).

[ "Please forgive me and correct the info if I have the address or exact name wrong. I haven't been able to find any information as to whether this is the same Zen as the one downtown, but there is no \"Shabu-Shabu\" in the name that's outside the restaurant, though I think there is \"Grill\". It's located on the west side of Calgary trail, in a little strip mall just north of the 7-11 at the corner of 76 Ave. I'm pretty sure it's where David's Burger Bar used to be, because they still use the same drinks menu...\n\nAnyway, they have a $15 lunch and $25 dinner all-you-can-eat deal. Two hour sitting limit, and they reserve the right to charge for any uneaten food (as most AYCEs do). We went on a recent Saturday night for dinner, and my boyfriend, who has been there for lunch, said that the only apparent menu difference is that sashimi is not offered at lunchtime. The menu is not too big but it's pretty tasty. They have a photo version of the menu as well, which is fairly accurate in terms of the way the food is presented, and serving size.\n\nFor sashimi, they have salmon, surf clam, red snapper, and tuna - limit of 15 pieces per person but it's unclear if it's 15 of each, or 15 in total. The salmon was nice and fresh, but unevenly cut - the first 5 pieces I had were long and thin-ish, the next few were a little thicker and half the size as the first 5 pieces. The surf clam pieces were small but tasty - good texture. The red snapper was nice and resilient, quite fresh as well. The tuna was a little fishy, but I'm starting to think that I just don't like tuna sashimi as much.\n\nI didn't order any nigiri so I can't comment on that. There were about 10 choices for maki - the spicy tuna and spicy salmon ones were very small maki, whereas the soft-shelled crab and california ones were more normal-sized. I didn't think there was anything too special about them. I prefer when I can see the small chunks of salmon/tuna in the rolls, which I couldn't in these rolls. There are about half a dozen temaki (cone) roll choices, including eel and salmon skin. I ordered my favourite, chop chop (scallop), which I quite liked. It's too bad they are so hard to eat.\n\nThere's quite a few other choices that are not sushi. The miso soup was pretty good. They have edamame beans, gyoza (pretty good), tempura (shrimp and vegetable, batter was a little heavy but still good), teriyaki chicken (skinless; I'd pass on this - it's kind of boring and fills up your stomach!) and new york steak with teriyaki sauce on it (a little overcooked for me). They also had stir-fry veggies (mostly cabbage with a little bit of broccoli and carrot), stir-fry udon (this was quite tasty, reminded me of shanghai stir-fried noodles), udon with soup (clear tasty broth with some wakame and lots of resilient udon noodles), and my favourites, barbequed short ribs (a little chewy but right up my alley, very Korean-short-rib-like) and grilled squid tentacles (looks gross if you don't like squid, but it was perfectly grilled, not rubbery at all, and drizzled with a sweet-salty teriyaki sauce).\n\nService wasn't too bad, though they did make some mistakes even though it wasn't too too busy (including bringing a rose wine when we pointed to the sauvignon blanc on the menu - the waitress exchanged it without any issues). For the most part they pretty much brought what was ordered, though one time I received the wrong sashimi, and another time they doubled our maki order. They didn't force water on us like many AYCEs do (to get you to fill up on water); in fact, I had to ask for a glass of water. Overall it was a good experience and I would definitely go back again (especially if I had the chance to go for their wicked lunchtime deal!). Fyi, they are open until 10pm on Saturdays.", "I really enjoyed my meal at Zen all you can Eat Sushi. The tuna sashimi was my favorite - so fresh and delicious! I liked the tuna roll as well. All of the rolls were good in fact.The tempura and green onion cakes were fresh tasting and not too greasy. The avacado sushi for some reason was ultra delicious. I also liked the teriyaki beef, but I would skip the teriyaki chicken. Basically - there's a ton of stuff to pick from, and it's all really good. Something for everyone. And the service was really good - fast and friendly. I would highly recommend, and I will be going back.", "I went with my sister last week for dinner. I would definitely return. The dinner price seems a bit steep ($26.50, I think) but I haven't been to a ton of AYCE restaurants in Edmonton. Lunch would definitely be better value for your money, I think. The menu seemed to have slightly fewer items than you might expect, but has all the standard fare.\n\nAll the food came out hot. The tempura especially was burn-your-mouth steaming and seemed less greasy than other tempura I've had.\n\nGood miso soup, little heavy on the seaweed for me. Edamame was good. Excellent teriyaki chicken, flavourful, tender. Steak also looked and tasted like steak, had a distinct grill flavour. Pork cutlet was also awesome; great light, crispy breading on it.\n\nThe stir fried rice was rather greasy. Ditto the mixed vegetables (which was mostly bean sprouts).\n\nCan't comment about the sushi, as I don't eat it. They do limit the number of pieces a person can order.\n\nDecor is nice. Service was generally good, though a tinyyy bit faster bringing more order sheets would be nice, especially since there's a 2 hour dining limit.\n\nOverall, I would recommend this as a southside AYCE restaurant.", "Okay, before you read my review you should know this about me: I don't really care for Japanese food. I've never been a fan of it and don't really care for sushi much either. Most of it tastes disgusting to me. I guess I just don't really care for putting raw food in my mouth and I can be damn sure I don't like seaweed anything! No disrespect intended to any Japanese person who may be reading this, the taste of the food has never really been suited to my palate.\n\nSo why am I giving this All You Can Eat sushi restaurant four stars? Because I love this place! \n\nI practically had to be dragged like a lion into this restaurant fighting tooth and nail to go anywhere else, but after tasting the fine cuisine I was purring like a kitten with a satisfied stomach. Granted, I didn't try all of the sushi offered to me because I just don't care for seaweed wrapped tofu, but the pieces I was willing to try tasted delicious. The salmon and red snapper were really good and so was the tempura. Everything came to the table hot from the grill and I nearly burned my tongue it was so fresh! Just to clarify, I ordered some beef short ribs, chicken teriyaki, and green onion cake. My companions I was dining with were singing the praises of this establishment as well. They, being Asian, absolutely loved the samshi and other sushi items that I wasn't going to try. \n\nThe price for dinner did seem a bit steep at just over $26/person, but we went for lunch which was a lot more reasonable at just over $16/person. I was very satisfied with the level of customer service I received here. The waitress was attentive and prompt and brought out our food as soon as it was ready so there was always a steady stream of food coming to the table. There was a bit of a delay in getting some of our dishes, but I would think this is normal for well prepared sushi. The atmosphere was clean and comfortable with a nice ambiance that I enjoyed as well. \n\nOver all, I have no complaints, and I would recommend you give this place a try. As a person who does not care for Japanese food Zen won my heart and my palate!", "AYCE sushi and grill is great to enjoy sushi, sashimi, and hot food as well. The ordering is quite easy, mark on a sheet how many of each item you would like and there's a menu with photos of each dish. Since we had never been before and didn't know the portion size of each dish, we decide to be cautious and just order one or two instead of having too much food to start. \n\nI started with some of the hot food; noodles, teriyaki chicken, dumplings, and tempura. The noodles were my least favourite so we tried the rice but it wasn't very good. The tempura had a light batter and was delicious. Next I tried the sashimi, sushi and cone. The sashimi was fresh and yummy but I wasn't a fan of my cone. Since there were 10 of us, we were able to share and try more of the hot food including the fish and tofu where were good.\n\nI'm not sure why I didn't enjoy this experience more than I did. I like the concept but maybe the combination of sushi and sashimi and the hot food didn't quite work for me. Nothing was exceptional and I have had better food elsewhere. The decor is nice,, there was a tv to catch the latest Olympic action, and the washrooms clean. Service was friendly and quick.\n\nLikely I will stay away from AYCE and stick with ordering off the menu next time.", "9 people on a Friday evening eating AYCE amounted to $300. This is the only acceptable AYCE sushi place in Edmonton to my knowledge. The sushi wasn't crap like you'd expect for prairie AYCE sushi (majority of orders were very tasty; don't order the crabstick) and service was attentive. For the amount of quality food for a large group of hungry university students, I give this place a solid 5/5 for serving my purpose fully. This place isn't your high end gourmet sushi but it does a good job for its intended purpose. I'll return if a group hungers for sushi. \n\nLarge group for good sushi? This is your venue.", "I've only been here 4 times, and every time i come i get the same good service and food. I can kinda tell that the waitress dislikes when me and my friend ask to sit in the bar area away from everyone else and the door, cause in the winter it gets pretty cold when people open and close the door frequently. So its a plus that she sucks it up and allows us. haha. Another great thing is the speed. When you finish your order on the order sheet, they pick it up, and within 5 minutes your food will start to come. I wish we could order some items from the dinner menu especially sashimi. But you could always order the ones that come with rice. I swear every time i go there i have to order like 6 orders of the beef, they end up putting it all on a big plate and it looks mountainous. Great place to go to grab lunch if you're super hungry, gotta get there before 2 cause they close at 3 and you wont have enough time to eat and enjoy it!", "Who says you can't get good sushi in River City?? I had a great time at Zen, and boy oh boy do they feed you! You sit down, sip green tea while you look over the menu and pencil in the items for round one. When they deliver it they drop off the sheet for round two, pick it up 5- 10 minutes in and this cycle continues until you feel as though you are going to pop! \n\nThe owners are sweet, old and so funny. I met two of my best girlfriends there, and as girls do, we gabbed nonstop for at least 45minutes before placing our first order. The gentleman whom I assume owns the place pointed to the 3 hour time limit and joked we would end up \"pay for air, talk so much, no order!\" ha ha, it was funny! \nI love the idea of an AYCE, because you don't feel bad ordering something you have never tried before just to see if you like it. And, I pretty sure I loved about 95% of what came out! I will definitely be back again soon.", "This place had already spammed my review, therefore I am re-posting as I am telling the truth and would like other people to read before going, as I came her because of the good reviews I saw on this site.\n\nI went here with my friend for lunch. Before going I have read the reviews and they seemed to be fine, but I REALLY regret going to this place. One, it was VERY dirty and unclean. The cucumber salad I ordered had soggy old cucumbers in a very unclean bowl, the forks I had asked for were also very dirty, as well as the staff all had dirty unclean aprons on. When I go to all you can eat sushi restaurants, I usually always have very little left on what ever I order but here it was just impossible. The rice in the sushi and some of the fish was very soggy and the food that they had cooked such as the squid that they gave me was burnt. Also, I sat at the back facing the kitchen to where I saw all the chefs plus the waitress from time to time, gulping down some food in between cooking and serving.\n\n After we were done eating the poor food, the waitress even had the thought to come up and tell us that next time if we leave some of the rice or fish that we would be charged to what I had thought and had not said \"There would not be a next time.\" I understand that you have to finish everything on the plates and I always do whenever I go to at least a decent enough AYCE place, but this was just unacceptable and the food was AWFUL. I would not go here again. If you are looking for a good place for AYCE sushi, I recommend the Sushi Garden or someplace else.", "Worth a shot. \nI came here with a friend and we were overwhelmed. We were warned by the server to not order too much on the first turn. We should have listened. The dishes came out faster than we could eat them. All of which were fresh from the kitchen. No reheating here. I LOVED the fried tofu. You will get a good value for your money here. I suggest going with a party of 4 minimum so you can try a wide variety of choices without getting loser stuffed." ]

[ "I really wish I could separate food & service/environment reviews here. I know San Jose just opened in this location, so it makes sense that some of the logistics of the location were still coming together. With that said, here goes. \n The food was really good! 4.5 stars. Nachos were fabulous, great amount of meat & cheese. The meat had something delicious with it ... Perhaps with cheese sauce? Either way, very good! Burritos were delicious and fresh, with great sauce. Pollo yucatan was okay, but dry. Clearly fresh ingredients, but nothing special. \n\nService & systems at a restaurant were lacking. 1 or 2 stars max. This is San Jose's 2nd restaurant. Yet, the logistics of running a restaurant seemed very daunting & not planned well. The shape of this front door & host stand are tough; you walk in the door and *BAM*, there's the host stand. Where you also pay. And also wait. It's not a well laid out lobby area. there was a wait, although it took 3 people to tell us that. We were given a number (why??), and we went to the bar to wait. My question was, why give us a number instead of just taking our name? I know my name; I don't remember my number without glancing at it every time you come by. \n Bartender did not notice that we were there until I pushed the dirty dishes up to the bar,are eye contact when he situated by, and loudly said \"Hi, can we get a drink?\". Then yes, yes we could. :)\n Our server was very pleasant, but didn't understand much English, and was not present often. We had to ask 3 separate people to find her so we could get our check at the end. However, the young host and other servers were very helpful in tracking her down. She was not at our table or present in the dining room much, and our waters didn't get refilled, and we didn't get asked for another drink, or dessert. \n We had to pay at the host stand, which seems out of place with a sit down restaurant that can charge up to $20 for an entree. I hope when they get a POS system, the server will run the check for you. It seems necessary for the price point and ambiance. It also may help their servers find a rhythm and be more present after dropping off food. \n It is worry noting that their changing table in the bathrooms was an actual changing table, and well maintained! I was very impressed. \n Overall, I'm going to come back in a month or so to see how things are, and try again. With some more restaurant basics like frequent service and better systems, this could be a great reasonably process Mexican restaurant.", "Best Mexican I've ever had... I always judge all Mexican restaurants hard. I grew up eating El Maguey in south county and it's amazing but, I'd have to say this place is better. Perfect queso, crispy crunchy chips, flavorful food, and the Don Juan Margarita. That drink will knock you on your butt if you're not careful, a frozen margarita with a sangria floater, everything you never knew you were missing. All for a completely affordable price... I'm talking 6 people for under $100 (including drinks!) I would recommend to everyone!", "One of the best Mexican restaurants in town. Authentic food and great people and service!!", "Excellent selection of lunch specials for right around $6. Great salsa, atmosphere & overall excellent quality everything. The service is courteous & quick. This restaurant is all around better than the Mexican restaurant that was previously in this location & is definitely worth giving a try.", "We had more fun trying to think up a concise review title for our visit to San Jose than we had eating there. In the end we decided two words were sufficient - never again. There is not a lot to like - the salsa is okay, the beer is relatively inexpensive and the rice serving was generous (although pretty bland.) \n\nThe chips are thick and tasteless which helps ensure you don't eat too many and they don't have to give you a refill. The beef, cheese and bean enchiladas barely had any filling. The chicken enchilada was filled nicely but the meat was dry and tasteless. The enchiladas were drenched in a soupy, tasteless ranchero sauce with a couple of dollops of sour cream on the side and nothing else. If you like cheese on top of your enchiladas that must be an extra-cost upgrade at San Jose.\n\nThe fish tacos were also light on filling (imagine a tilapia fillet cut into 1/4 inch pieces after being fried and getting one of those in your taco) but that was okay since the fish tasted so bad - more like old, Mississippi river catfish than tilapia. Most fish tacos include fillings to compliment the fish but at San Jose all you get is a hint of fish. \n\nThe service was friendly but inattentive. We had finished our meal before the waiter wandered by to ask if everything was okay. He apologized when we told him the food wasn't very good but did not offer to do anything about it.\n\nIt is hard to believe anyone would think San Jose is one of the best Mexican restaurants in St. Louis. Even if their only points of comparison are Quedoba and Taco Bell it is hard to understand how they came to such a conclusion. With Milagro close by San Jose should not be in business very long and the good citizens of Webster Groves can hope for something better in the space.", "Blech. Gross, sub par Mexican food. San Jose is categorically NOT \"one of the best Mexican restaurants in town\" I roughly have Doug Gs' take on the place. Experienced funky bad tasting fish, as well. Got the Tilapia and fries for my 5 year old. He wouldn't eat the fish and after I tried it, I could see why. Past any \"fishiness\" really really seemed like past its storage prime.\n Mildly flavored, carelessly prepared, my Tacos Al Pastor were uncharacteristically slimy and not sporting enough of the under seasoned, and gristly pork to keep up with the huge chunks of pineapple. Kinda wished I got what my youngest got, kids chicken Taco/beans and rice. By comparison to my dish, the taco had some genuine savory qualities, and of the three dishes, was hands down the winner\nPerfectly perfunctory beans and rice all around. They have two tomatillo based salsas(Rojo/Verde) that that are decent enough, but really couldn't help the sub par food much. Also experienced friendly, innatentive service, but really that's no kind of deal breaker in my book.\nLike Doug G., I really don't think I'll be back. Milagros is going to prove some stiff stiff competition for my \"Mexican food dollar\" in the immediate area.", "Very friendly greeting and good service. We were seated at a table by the window, which was nice, but it was situated quite high compared to the seating. Luckily, it didn't present much of a problem.\n\nComplimentary chips and salsa were pretty good.\n\nMake your own combination was only $9.50 for two items with rice and beans. I got the chimichanga (smaller than I expected but extremely tasty) and a hard shell taco. The meal was good and quite filling.\n\nMy co-diners were able to order from several of the lunch special that ranged in the $5-7 range mostly. Very reasonable prices. We'd definitely come back.", "Bummer because we wanted to like it. Absolute worse margarita we've ever had in a restaurant. It was not fresh and clearly was made with some pretty cheap mixer. The cheese sauce appetizer was dripping like it was watered down. The shrimp dish was pretty good and the kid's burrito seemed okay. The spinach enc made you wish you were somewhere else. The service was good and friendly, so it would be great if they worked on their food and drinks.", "This place has a great patio and I would suggest lunches here. Dinner was a little bit different (and we ordered the same thing we had at lunch before). Food seemed fresher and service was more on top of it. Spicy salsa!! Yay! Stay clear of the margs unless you want a 2day severe headache. The chimichangas are outrageously good! This place is very clean (although, staff should attend to the family bathroom upstairs. Yuck!) \n\nAll in all though this is one of our favorite casual Mexican food spots.", "Wow, what a lovely place to sit and watch trains! Great name too since I'm from San Jose, CA. I really loved the chicken chimichanga. The beef wasn't quite as good, so I will order chicken next time. Everyone in my 6 person party liked their food. The cheese dip is really good." ]

[ "Yeah, I know what most people are thinking, fine dining at Club Cal Neva? Home of the $4.99 steak and eggs? Yeah, when I first came to Reno and didn't have much money, I went to Cal Neva, but their new steakhouse is a nice little hidden gem. I like tapas style restaurants where you can get a whole variety of foods, kind of like sushi. This place has a large appetizer menu including seafood stuffed mushroom, scallops, even escargot! They also offer small portions of steak, a 6.0 ounce filet for about $11, so you can mix and match. They have a cool pasta menu where can literally mix and match pastas and sauces. Mushroom sauce with mushroom ravioli or pesto sauce with cheese ravioli or linguine. Every Italian restaurant should be mix and match. No, this is not a cool, trendy, upscale indie restaurant with handmade food, but I would call it a value restaurant with quality seafood and steaks. There is very little competition in this category in Reno. Gold'n'Silver has great daily seafood specials for $11, but service is spotty and so is the food quality. Sure you can get $24 seafood at Rapscallions but I challenge you to compare the lobster bisque sauce at Rapscallions with this place. BTW the lobster bisque is a soup here and I just use it as a dipping sauce. It's all about food snobbery these days, but if you want a simple, economical, quality seafood or steak experience, this is a great place.", "If you're looking for a bargain then you have found that place here in Casino Cal Nevada.

We came on saturday night around 6:30pm and it was 10-15min wait. After we were seated the line grew to 20-25min wait so it's full house for the whole 1.5 hr dinner service. Seems to be understaff during a busy dinner service but staff were friendly.", "Old school Reno deliciousness! How can you beat a $5.99 8oz. Prime rib with fries and soup?!!

I can put up with loud boisterous lawyers and other self-satisfied suburbanites if the food is really good, but that wasn't the case.", "To the point:\n- the hostess forgot to check us in, so we waited for our table for an hour. \n- the service was incredibly slow and we saw waiters throughout the night confused on which table ordered what food. \n- we were never asked about ordering drinks and had to stop the waiter twice as he passed to order more wine. \n- I had to ask multiple times to get a water refill. \n- the food presentation was nice, the appetizers were good, but every component of the main dish lacked flavor. (I rarely reach for salt and pepper). The lobster was over cooked, the risotto was a heap of flavorless mush and the fried spinach was heavily soaked with grease.\nThe most enjoyable bite was the salad. \n-all in all our dinner turned into 4 hours.\n- I will not be back.", "I have loved Herbies since it's rejuvenation in the CWE and Balaban's before that. So I was most anxious to go to the third generation in Clayton. It was just OK. The service was great and the food was fine but we made early reservations for a side room and they didn't deliver. They had one poor valet for a pre-holiday night. This isn't a new restaurant so the lack of prep seems odd. \n\nI understood that they were going to try and recreate the CWE location but it felt like Cardwell's with Herbies paintings and one lone banquet. \n\nGlad to see the corner of Clayton and Maryland bustling again but this isn't the greatest...it's adequate.", "Love the herbs!! Food is always amazing and they make a mean martini! I like the old location best ! This one is okay, but I feel like the food has improved! I will most certainly be going back for another experience.

This was my first time to Herbies and my waitress was prompt, friendly and professional. The atmosphere was perfect for my girlfriend and I and I would recommend the restaurant to any one. Not to mention, the food was perfectly prepared and delicious.", "I'm going to start with the best part of the evening and work my way down, so here we go; \n\nServer - 9.5/10 \n Josh A.; very personable, was able to make short conversations and was very pleasant. Professional server for sure.\n\nFood - 5/10 \nFirst course - Margarita flat bread; exceeded my expectations, presentation was good and flavor was good as well.\n\nMain Course \nI was disappointed that they were out of the Wellington, especially since we ordered food at 8:40pm or so on a Friday night. Just wanted to put some context into that we didn't order food at 11pm or near closing time. Went with the filet instead, the inside temperature was correct, but it was not hot off he grill IMO. Had the temperature that it was cooked earlier in the evening and then put into a warm box. The mashed potatoes were plopped onto the plate and the green beans tasted fine, but again just thrown onto the plate with no regards to presentation. My girlfriend got the flat ribs and I would say the flavor was above average and the presentation was slightly below average. I had short ribs at Deer Creek Club just a few nights earlier, and the chef over there, Ryan, makes the best short ribs EVER so probably not a fair comparison, but just my honest assessment.\n\nFor a restaurant in Clayton, I overall was underwhelmed with the food. \n\n\nHostess - \nWhatever your lowest possible score is, multiply that by 10 and apply to this \"thing\" that appeared to have two X chromosomes that seated us. I hate to sound juvenile, but I am just trying to give feedback so that ownership and management can make improvements where necessary. When I think of the word \"rude\" from now on, I will think of this \"thing\" that appeared to have two X chromosomes. We were told on the phone that if we got there early we would be seated within 15 minutes. We went ahead and took reservations for 8:15pm just to be on the safe side. Arrived at 8pm, and weren't seated until 8:35 or so, not the end of the world, but do what you say and attitude goes a long way. Back to this \"thing\" that seated us. There were three couples waiting in the front along with us, and \"it\" talked with each one of them besides my girlfriend and I initially. After \"it\" seated all the couples, \"it\" came over and talked to us in a way that was very demeaning and rude. Told us to grab a seat at the bar and order some drinks and our table would be ready soon. We told \"it\" we were fine and would wait. This nonhuman like thing tried to make my girlfriend feel like she was beneath \"it\". I actually felt sorry for this thing. Mid 40's, making $26,000 a year, and being a hostess was probably not \"its\" life goal back in elementary school but that's just where \"it\" is in life. \"It\" even went to the bar and started gossiping about us with one of the bartenders. At this point I refused to even look at this bitter thing. So much in fact, that when one of the ladies who was waiting forgot her jacket once she was seated, I waited for \"it\" to walk away to tell the gentleman host that the previous customer forgot their jacket. Best part, \"it\" actually stopped walking away and eavesdropped on our conversation to make sure we weren't talking about \"it\". \n\nThe front of the house sets the tone for the rest of the night. I would get this bitter, 40 year old thing away from your customers. \"It\" is what is wrong with our society today. I almost asked our server if he had to split tips with the hostess, because if that was the case, I would have rather mailed him a check for the tip. This \"thing\" should never be around real humans. \n\nOverall a 2/5 star rating. Would't go back unless I had a friend that made reservations for some kind of special event. Even then I would try to talk them out of it.", "This place was so disappointing. I'd never been to the old location in the CWE, but the new spot is right near where I live, so I had high hopes that it could be a go-to spot...not so much.\n\nWe were greeted by an unfriendly hostess and two other gentlemen who seemed bothered by our presence- like we were interrupting them or something. After we told them that we had a reservation, the three of them clearly had a discussion about where to seat us. The hostess then took us to their side room that faces Maryland Ave, and sat us in the corner by the water station/menus for the servers, despite the fact that there were several other tables open in that room (and the main dining room), including better options by the window. Because the server station was so close to our table, we had to face sitting that direction, otherwise the servers would bump into our chairs. Also, the side room itself is just a weird space- it seems like they barely revamped it from its Cardwells days, and the chairs in there were really uncomfortable!\n\nSo as you can see, not off to a great start. All of that could have probably been forgiven though if the food had been better. First of all, the bread was super lame- it was clearly an afterthought (which is a pet peeve of mine). For apps, we ordered the shrimp dumplings and some salads (caesar and mixed greens), all of which were fine but nothing special. My husband ordered the beef Wellington for dinner, and it was overcooked (he ordered it medium-rare and it came out medium+), and the carrots and green beans on the side looked like something you'd get at Applebee's. It also did not come with any sort of potato or starch, which I thought was weird. I had the bacon wrapped quail, which was very underwhelming- the spice rub was not the right combination of flavors and the mushroom stuffing on the inside was really soggy. \n\nThe one bright spot of the evening was our server. I didn't catch his name, but he was very professional, pleasant, and helpful. He even brought us a free dessert! Of course the dessert (flourless chocolate cake) was also not very good, but at least it was free!\n\nSo other than our server being great, this was a total letdown and definitely not worth the price. You can get a much better meal for these prices (or cheaper) at other places in Clayton.", "We had dinner there on Saturday night with friends. It's a very nice place and was very crowded (especially in the bar area). However, we found it to be very loud and difficult to carry on a conversation. The food and beverage service was slow. We waited a long time for our salads (about 30 minutes) and then they came out warm and wilted! The entrees were just overall average...nothing special. The entrees did come out very hot and fresh. I found portions to be small and less than satisfying for the price points. It was fun to try but we won't be going back.", "Bad! The service was horrendous. It took 30 minutes after our salads were ordered for them to arrive. The other guy at our table said, \"oh my God, I forgot I ordered a salad. Then the salad arrived and my Caesar basically didn't have dressing. I didn't even bother asking the waiter for more because i knew if would be all evening before I got it. Now on to the main course... The \"filet\" was either seasoned horribly, a very low quality of beef, or it was rotten when they cooked it. \n\nBesides the service being slow as can be, the waiter was very pleasant and seemed to be trying. We didn't even complain because we were having a nice time with friends and didn't mind spending 2.5 hours on a 2 course meal, but the manger brought us out a free desert to share amongst 4 people. \n\nSadly, I will never be back. I had a client tell me that she and her husband got up and left after their salads took 45 minutes to come out a few weeks ago, so I assume Herbies won't be around long. It's odd, because when they were in the CWE, it never seemed to be a problem." ]

I'm going to try the shakes and smoothies, because I saw some of the happiest fruit proudly on display. There was bright yellow diced pineapple, grapes, oranges all freshly cut. The fish looked good, as their eyes weren't even cloudy yet. The decor was cute and informal with tons of live fresh plants and red gingham tablecloths. This would be a great place to take groups to, but I enjoyed their takeout too.

They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner and the menu is heavy on the dominican/latin/caribbean cuisine. They usually have a few specials on the steam table, such as beef stew and roasted chicken. The specials come with a choice of yellow or white rice as well as black or red beans. They have an extensive menu including mofongo, patties, stews ceviches, platters, and sandwiches. They feature a number of proteins, but seafood if prevalent on the menu. The operation is a family affair, with the owner, his daugher, and I believe a few other family members. The service has been very good on my two trips for dinner thus far. They offer delivery and pickup as well, and take credit cards.

We went with udon noodles, potatoes, beef and pork and mushrooms. The meat comes rolled up and is blanched in the liquid for a quick cook. There is not a lot of flavor to this style of cooking, which is why we liked the bbq better. \n\nFor the Korean BBQ, we had quite a few different items. We liked the black pepper steak, pork belly and the curry chicken probably the best out of everything we tried. However, there wasn't really anything we didn't like on the Korean BBQ side. We also tried corn, mushrooms and onions. None of these came out great on the grill, but you need a little something with your meat. \n\nThey also have a really awesome sauce and seasoning bar (try the special soy sauce..it's great) and a small accompaniment bar that has lettuce for wraps, kimchi, fruit, desserts, etc. I grilled some pineapple which was delicious. We also seasoned and sauced all the meat we cooked which brought it to another level. The only thing I really wished that they had different were some rice at the bar (or a bowl brought out with the meats). It would also be a good idea to have mushrooms and onions on the bar instead of having to order them each round. \n\nOverall, we left really happy and full. This is definitely a fun and interactive eating experience. We loved it and we will return.", "AYCE KBBQ returns to Tampa Bay! The short and sweet: hot pot, BBQ, or both. Automatic gratuity of 15%. Meat, seafood, and veggies to pick from. Salad bar and sauce bar.\n\nQ-pot is a 3.5 for me. My review is based on the BBQ only as I don't like hot pot. The meats included beef, pork, lamb, and chicken options. We were asked to order three meats at a time and reorder for more. The portions brought out each time were pretty skimpy. We came at an off-peak time and spent a bit over two hours eating due to waiting for reorders. The meat was sliced thin even by KBBQ standards and lower quality than I expected. Still tasty though, and the variety you get for the price is good for Florida. The grill is electric. Try the pork belly.\n\nThe salad bar was exceedingly small and only included lettuce, fruit, and a few side dishes like kimchi and seaweed salad. I am used to KBBQ with more banchan and some sort of stew/casserole, so the meal didn't really feel complete. We were given small bottles of a yogurt drink to end the meal with and those were pretty yummy.\n\nI do recommend the fresh fruit juices which are a la carte. They're kind of like less sweet agua fresca, very light and refreshing.\n\nI have long lamented the shortage of Korean food on this side of the bay and Q-pot is certainly a welcome addition. However, I'd only return because it's the only restaurant of its kind in the area.", "What better way to start the new year with resolutions of getting in shape than go to an all you can eat restaurant? Unlike a buffet though, their food actually tastes fresh as you cook it yourself so you don't have to worry about how long it has been sitting out. The taste of the food is really up to you as they have a sauce bar and a salad bar which is more of a fixins bar for your meal.\n\nWe did the hot pot which you pick the broth base you want and then meats and vegetables you want them to bring out. Almost like a build your own pho. I was a bit worried at first as the broth tasted like flavored meat water. Once you add your sauces, fixins and meats though it really comes together so build wisely." ]

[ "Had the stuffed peppers, calamari, braised pork belly, and fish tacos. Everything was incredible, and very reasonably priced. Fabulous beer list and the cocktails sound great, though we did not try any today. The interior is really open, bright and comfortable; I cannot believe this is the same building as the old Shenanigans.", "My fiancé and I went there last week we both were very excited to see what all the hype was for social. The ambience and Decour were beautiful but that's where it pretty much ended.we were seated by the waiting area which felt a little odd .. Hungry people watching you eat...we ordered the Carolina fried deviled eggs as an appetizer when they came out they were warm at best we weren't sure if they were supposed to be like that so we didn't think too much. We were seated to where we could see in the kitchen and I noticed that there were two dishes sitting in the window that weren't being taken out but all the other entrées were.I was thinking in the back of my head please don't let that be our food still sitting in the window. And sure enough it was 18 minutes later our food that was sitting in the window came out.I had ordered Baja fish tacos they were extremely cold covered and the heaping pile of guacamole and avocado was runny. The fries that came with them tasted like they were a day old and reheated.my fiancé got the fried bologna sandwich and macaroni and cheese.The Mac & cheese was okay but the fried bologna sandwich was also cold to the point where we couldn't even finish it. Now I know some of you are probably reading this saying why when you just send it back... well the both of us have worked in the restaurant industry when we were in college and it's just a rule that you don't send food back. The line cook was not wearing gloves and was touching all of the food while wiping the sweat off of his head. most of the cooks seem to have duck dynasty beards and those were not covered. But aside from the food what bothered me was as a new restaurant and designing a restaurant you would think that there would be more than one server station we noticed that there was only one server station and multiple servers were waiting in line to put in their customers orders.it wasn't all that busy when we were there and we noticed that the server station is right by the hallway where they take out the food to the customer so the servers were bumping into other servers pretty regularly. I normally don't mind paying $20 for an entrée if the food is great but I was pretty disappointed that our bill was $50 and I left still hungry.", "Went to Social Saturday of opening weekend. Immediately walking in I was quite impressed with the renovations that took place. The inside looked great, especially the bar. The small courtyard section with outside bar was just as awesome. I loved the incorporation of picnic tables outside. \n\nWe were seated immediately and while it was not very busy it still took 10-15 mins until we were greeted by a server. I actually had to stop someone and ask if they knew what server was assigned to our table and the person acted quite annoyed. Never the less it was opening weekend so I expected some confusion and early hiccups. \n\nThe draft list here was exceptional. Great variety and the prices for pints was awesome. I hope this continues as it was one of the biggest draws for me coming in. \n\nMy wife had the buffalo chicken sandwich and fries. Sandwich was pretty dry but the bread was great. Fries were really good as well.\n\nI ordered the burger special per the recommendation of our waitress. My burger was average at best. The mac n cheese was awesome but unfortunately cold. This did not stop me from devouring it and I would certainly eat it again. \n\nEntrees on the menu looked pretty good but this is not cheap restaurant by any means. 2 Beers and two sandwiches still put us in the $40-$50 range.\n\nOverall not a bad experience at all but certainly room for improvement which can be expected from any restaurant still in its infancy. Will certainly stop in again in a month or so.", "We've been twice, and can't wait to go back. Delicious food, great cocktails and nice atmosphere. The pork chops are my husbands favorite and I love the mac and cheese! I recommend making a reservation just for convenience.", "Paid too much for a dry, tasteless egg salad sandwich and very salty fries for lunch today. Not horrible, but not great, either. The music was so loud that people were shouting, which made it even louder. It was hard to have a conversation.", "Went to Social for the first time last night with my cousin. First impressions of the place were exceptional. It's a far cry from what the place used to be. Loved the patio with the outdoor bar. The crisp chrome look resembled Chipotle. The place was not busy at all, which I didn't mind. There were several servers just standing around as they seemed to be over staffed for a Tuesday night. I went to the bathroom and one of the stalls had absolutely no toilet paper. Surprising since they weren't busy at all. The drink I ordered was great. I had a pumpkin cocktail that satisfied my \"everything pumpkin\" palate. Overall, however, the food was not worth my 45 minute drive there. I ordered the Tuscan Chicken. The sandwich was just ok and left me disappointed. I expected more meat and flavor from the chicken. My cousin ordered the Ugly Chicken salad. She said the chicken was bland and lacked flavor. The salad was also tossed in what was too much balsamic vinaigrette dressing. She said she should have ordered it on the side. As we sat close to the inside bar, I was shocked when I saw the bartender take a drink (with a straw using his mouth and not his finger) from a fancy cocktail he was preparing for a customer. At first I thought perhaps he was just bored and was perfecting his portions. Then I saw him serve that cocktail he drank to a customer sitting at the bar. I do not know if he knew the customer personally, however I will never order another cocktail from there again because of that. Overall, the atmosphere was great, but there are other local establishments in Edwardsville I will go to instead.", "I went with a party of 5 last night and was really excited to try this new place. The place was busy... had a good vibe. The first drinks came out very slow and even though mine was wrong, the drinks were good. This is where all the good ends. \n\nWe ordered starters and were able to order and finish a 2nd drink before they ever arrived at the table. The calamari was good... the blue cheese chips were also good. We were enticed by the description of the fried devil egg... come on, how doesn't that sound good. But to say it was terrible is an understatement. It probably didn't help that it was cold from probably sitting on counter too long before getting to us, but wow... it was just awful. \n\nBy the way - the service didn't really get any better. The young kid was trying but his inexperience really showed. So did the inexperience of the bar. I had the same drink each time and it was different each time. They had to come back several times because they were out of what we ordered, but then one drink that listed pumpkin seeds came without them and the other that promised bacon came without. Two had Luxardo cherries (favorite) but apparently they ran out of those. After pointing out, their first reaction was to lie and say it didn't come with it... then came back and admitted they were just out. \n\nAfter all this, we risked still ordering dinner. I think you get the point by now so I'm not going to even bother describing. Lets just say we didn't make the same mistake for desert. In any case, we paid a hefty price for what we got. \n\nI'll end by saying I know this place is new. I like the look and feel and really hope they get their act together because Edwardsville could use a place like this. I suspect they will, but I'm going to have to wait a long time before I try again.", "We are celebrating our anniversary and being sports fans it's a Notre Dame, St. Louis cardinals & Blues night. We love the atmosphere love the drinks I had a hot & spicy martini and the tuna my hubby had the prime rib dip. All wonderful! But the real treat of the night was our bartender Charlie ask for him if you sit at the bar you won't be disappointed.", "We drove from Effingham to take my brother out for his birthday. He is a chef and was interested in checking the place out. We made reservations and had no trouble getting seated even though it was very busy. Our server seemed inexperienced but was very nice and attentive. The management had her back when one of our entrees came out wrong and not only fixed the mistake but gave us the incorrect dish to take home. He even agreed to take my bro on a quick tour of the kitchen. \n\nAll the food we tried was outstanding. The blue cheese chips and smoked salmon dip were both incredible. I personally didn't care for the truffle egg toast, but it wasn't terrible. Our entrees were all cooked to perfection and very tasty. I could go on and on about the entrees, but dessert was my favorite part...the cheesecake...sweet Jesus...it was torched, meaning they set flame to sugar on top of it. The pie and ice cream are homemade, just as comfort food should be. It was a great evening. I will be going back!!", "We were really looking forward to trying Social Gastropub. Experience was mixed:\nAmbiance: ok. Room could be broken up a bit to give it a warmer feel.\nCocktails: awesome. Tasty and interesting.\nBeer list: looked interesting, but waiter couldn't explain much about them....the list on \"receipts\" was cute but not helpful.\nAppetizer: calamari was hot, unique, and yummy.\nDinner: both of our meals were barely warm. I didn't care for the salmon tacos. Too much cold, gloppy sauce. Fish tacos should seem light and fresh. These were heavy and saucy. Boar sloppy joes were just ok. Fries were tasty but not hot, and side house salad was nothing special.\nService: waiter was nice but seemed overwhelmed. Nobody ever refilled our waters.\n\nWill give it one more try---hope to be impressed next time." ]

[ "When I was a kid, growing up in New York - there was an Italian Deli on every corner (just about). Not so, here. Actually, kinda hard to find a good one in these parts. But, I did. Cesarina's is a small Deli, that makes BIG sandwiches. Everything is delicious - they even bake their own bread! Hot & Cold sandwiches, Salads, Specialties, Pasta, Cold Cuts and Imported Cheeses (which is why the place smells so good) and homemade desserts. Forget Subway (which is in the same little strip Mall), this place STUFFS their 12\" Hoagies and charges LESS than most other places! You can even get a Muffalata for $5.99! This is just a great little place. They have a couple of little tables, but it's mostly take-out. If you go for lunch, call ahead - or you'll wait on a line! P.S. If you like eggplant, their eggplant parmigiana 12\" is REALLY good!", "My friend took my husband and I to Cesarina's and I have been going back again and again. The Tiramisu was excellent. The best I have had in Florida and Maryland. I also purchased my Bialetti coffee maker there. The owners are warm and friendly and the food is pure quality.", "I wanted to update and add a star. This deli is just a great spot for an excellent Hoagie and fresh made Italian salads, pastas, cookies, bread, etc... They have recently added some very nice wines - so now they have everything you could possibly need for a nice Italian meal, all in one shop! They have a couple of little tables, but it's really best suited for take-out. Well worth the stop, though - I LOVE this little place!", "You're never going to beat this place for lunch. The food is absolutely SUPERB. And the prices are downright cheap. Try a $5 12-inch Italian hoagie. But, unless you are a really big eater (and I am), you might as well have them wrap half of it so that you can have it for dinner. It is that good and that big. I have also had their meatball sub which comes with four HUGE meatballs.\n\nThey also have a case full of yummy-looking desserts although I have not yet tried any. And they sell a variety of Italian grocery items such as tomato sauces, pastas, etc. They make their own Italian sausage, too, which is out of this world. I took some home and used it in my homemade spaghetti recipe (made with San Marzano tomatoes which I purchased at Cesarina).\n\nThe place is small and they have only a few tables for those that want to eat-in. But even at noontime, I have never had a problem finding a place to sit. I found it odd that they are located in a small strip center right next to a pizza restaurant which I have not tried - and why WOULD you when you can eat at Cesarina?", "Very good food for very good prices. I had their Italian sub and while I wouldn't say it was the best I've ever had - it is a close 2nd.", "Excellent sub shop! I have to admit I would have never stopped here without a recommendation, but I am glad I did. I had the Italian 12\" sub. This sub was large, the meat was excellent and the best was the bread. \n\nI would definitely recommend stopping here if you are around for lunch.", "Absolutely incredible Italian deli. It doesn't look like much, and it's in a strip mall, but the food is fantastic. I usually get the Eggplant Parmesan sub. They use by far the best bread of any deli or sub shop I've been to. I have also gotten trays of their hot prepared food for parties. I don't know what else to say - the food is just awesome.\n\nIt is a small place and it gets crowded and a little hectic during lunch. But I think that adds to the traditional Italian feel!", "Great sandwiches at an even better price!\n\nI went here to get a sandwich since I've been reading reviews on this place for a while now and never made it till recently. I decided to go with the 12\" Italian since that seems to be what everyone recommends and it was spectacular! all the flavors blended really well in this sandwich and nothing overpowered the other but I would say the best part of the sandwich was the bread. \n\nThe place is also a bakery so the bread was freshly made there and it was awesome! you can't beat a sandwich on fresh bread you just can't. \n\nThe place is authentic Italian wish pastas and pastries as well, I'll most likely go here to buy pasta and see how it compairs to store bought brands. \n\nEveryone working there was really nice as well and I was in and out pretty quickly but not rushed in any way.", "Note: the food section of this review is for the sausage & peppers sub, as I've tried nothing else. \n\nCesarina Deli is a simple but nice dining location on East Bay. While it looked like most coming in and out were there for the deli sandwich choices, they've got a few shelves of the most popular Italian grocery items. In the deli prepared food section they carry cured meats, cheeses, olives, about half a dozen pasta choices & and some more cold salad dishes. They also have several cases with bakery items, bread & cookies.\n\nIf you want to dine in there are tables to the left that seat ~20 or so. But I was here to taste test one of my favorite subs, the sausage & peppers.\n\nMy order at the counter was taken fairly quickly even though there were about 5 people in line. It was well-wrapped in foil to keep it take-out hot and I appreciated that. And the size of the wrapped sub quickly showed that Cesarina definitely delivers an extremely large sub for the price.\n\nBut while it was still hot when I arrived home, when I opened up the foil wrap I found the sorriest looking sausage & peppers sub I've ever seen in my life. The green peppers and onions were cooked to death in heavy oil to the point they had virtually no flavor. The oil almost completely soaked the sub roll, and the dry portion of the roll I did manage to taste was not that flavorful and a bit tough to chew. To top off this sad collection was the sausage link. While I'm a huge fan of meat in tube form, and I've had many sausages in different ethnic cuisines, most all Italian sausages I've ever found have been a nice mix of full meat flavor and spice. But this link was the most bland taste with only spicey hot flavors. Worse yet, the inside of the link was just ...well, just a disgusting grey color. I'm not foolish enough to think sausages are made of any prime pork cuts, but hey, if you're going to leave out the flavor at least throw me a bone with some red dye #3 like a hot dog so it resembles something that might be meat related. Sure, it's a carcinogen, but I'd trade that even up if at least fooled the cro-magnon portion of my meat-eating brain into thinking I was dining on something edible.\n\nCombining the tasteless grey sausage link with likewise sad, soggy sausage and peppers, after two bites I found the entire sub completely inedible and tossed it in the trash. And I can't think of hardly any food I've ordered in a decade or two that turned my stomach as bad as this sub.\n\nAgain, this food review is for one sandwich and nothing else. And while this experience would normally make me write off Cesarina completely, the other reviews of the cold subs or prepared foods would not stop me from stopping by again and trying one of them. If I do, I'll update my review and scores accordingly.\n\nMy scores on the deli scale are:\n\nAtmosphere: 3\nService: 4\nFood: 0....and that may be too high\nValue: 0", "We usually go here for lunch at work and I know a bunch of regulars that like to stop in on Friday's to get their fix. Sandwiches have always been good but I think I am stuck on their muffaletta! It looks like a pizza, with its round shape, if you order the large and is pressed like a panini. The thin layers of capicola, ham, pepperoni, salami and cheese are delicious with the olive salad and crispy crust! Some of the side salads are not bad either. Definitely worth taking a look...or two ; )" ]

I've never been to the Brookhaven location.\n\nJohn's offers a standard array of hoagies, cheesesteaks, chicken cheesesteaks, etc. They are consistently good, fresh, and reasonably priced. The one in Wayne has no frier and no real seating, except a tiny counter with 2-3 stools.\n\nIn all- a reliable hoagie!", "A 5 star rating is not something you want to come to lightly. I always hesitate because you really want the restaurant to prove it to you and you don't want to be one of the people who will give it out like the transit authority gives out parking tickets. But this was easy.\n\nI've been coming to John's for lunch for about a year and have almost run the gamut in their menu, choosing mostly between BBQ pork, chicken salad sandwiches, tuna sandwiches, tuna melts and Italian subs. Everything, all of it, fantastic. I even got the pizza once just to see if I could get a bad meal. Not even close. It was better than one of the pizza shops down the street.\n\nThe prices are reasonable: You can expect to pay between $4.50 and $6.50 for most sandwiches with pizzas running you a little more. Parking can be somewhat of an issue and the inside crowds up quickly, but this place earns its 5 stars for how well they do so many sandwiches.", "I have been going to John's for Hoagies since the early 80's. I can honestly say that John's Roast Beef Hoagie is my favorite sandwich anywhere.\n\nThe bread is delicious and the hoagies are filled with excellent meats and vegetables.\n\nI now live in Northern Virginia and I make sure that I get my JVM Hoagie whenever I am in town.", "Came all the way from Los Angeles, Ca and ate at John's Village Market and Deli :) It is amazing and they have delicious food! My fiance is in love with the Cheestakes and of course the hoagies!! We will be coming back!!", "This place is awesome. I have been going to John's for years and years. Great for large orders too. You can't go wrong. Great food, nice people, they TREAT you like the customer which is rare today. REVIEW UPDATE: had to make it FIVE STARS. The is awesome - only bad thing is they're closed of Sunday.", "When I was in high school this was a regular market with a meat counter and limited groceries. Now they specialize in take out sandwiches and I have to say the the quality of the rolls, meats and cheeses are top rate. The large hoagie is enough for two and they will package onions, peppers etc on the side so you can share and still get your half the way you want it. Our favorites are the Italian and the turkey with oil instead of mayo. Call ahead as they can take a while to make, especially if you order several (we had four on Saturday). Just wish they had brewed ice tea in addition to the bottled version.", "Like Captain Noah and Jim O'Brien (weep), John's has a special place in my hometown heart. \n\nOne of the best places to get a hoagie and, obviously, they have lasted a long time.", "Before you patronize anywhere else in Wayne for a hoagie, support these guys. It will be way better and faster. This place has been around forever and needs to stay.", "Incredible place!!\n\nI'm a foodie, and don't tolerate crappy food. This place has awesome take-out italian hoagies, roast beef, and pork sandwiches, as well as pizza (haven't tried) and other take out items. I'd Always heard about it, but never tried it because of it's outdated appearance--then my friend brought me an italian hoagie--I'm hooked.", "John's makes the best hoagies around. All the hoagies are excellent. The cheesesteak hoagie is one of my favorites. Instead of the typically grease-steak where the meat is cooked on a griddle, the Johns location in Wayne broils the meat. Something I have never seen done before and it is amazing. Just wish they were open on Sundays for my own selfish reasons." ]

[ "Stopped in, had some pho, korean tacos, and bahn mi.\nThe service was good - nothing to complain about there.\nThe bahn mi is good, a bit more dry than what i'm used to. It's also got less vegetables than most other bahn mi i've had.\nThe pho was pho. I've never had a pho I didn't like. This particular pho had an anise-rich, unusually sweet broth. One of the people I went with likes their pho that way, the other isn't a fan of anise or sweet in their pho and wasn't as happy with it.\nThe \"Korean Tacos\" are a sweet, bahn-mi like appetizer wrapped in small flat sweet puffy rolls.\nThe decor, however, I didn't care for in a big way. It's clean and tidy, but the lights are dim and yellow and the walls are dark green. It was very dim, and the lighting was, with the reflection off the wall, an awkward color. I couldn't see my food and it was difficult to read the menu. Until that changes, I won't be going back after sunset,", "The Lower Garden District finally gets an authentic Vietnamese restaurant! No longer do I have to travel to the Westbank, Metairie, or the greater beyond to get a great bowl of combination pho. Please understand, while I am not opposed to the urbanized combination pho served up in Vietnamese bistros and cafes around NOLA composed of various cuts of meats and meatball- this is not the real deal to me. On those days I'm in need of comfort food, I want my combination pho to have those savory bits that make others cringe as I pluck them out with delight- tendon and tripe. Thank you Pho Orchid Uptown for finally giving me what I want so close to home!\n\nLOCATION- Pho Orchid Uptown is located just off St. Charles and Jackson Avenues, right off both the St. Charles streetcar and #91 Jackson-Esplanade bus lines. Parking in that area tends to be tight, but can be found- especially if you're open to walking.\n\nMENU- Pho Orchid's menu is EXTENSIVE. In addition to pho, they offer spicy beef noodle soup, and soft or crispy egg noodles. There are Orchid tacos (even roast duck!), spring rolls, rice dishes, noodle bowls, fried rice, and banh mi (Vietnamese po' boys). Oh yeah, chicken wings, Torpedo shrimp, and Vietnamese crepes. Their drink menu is just as diverse.\n\nPACKAGING- Yes I'm taking the time to mention packaging. In the world of take-out, especially of delicates like rice noodles, packaging is everything. At Pho Orchid Uptown, they get it. My spring rolls (and sauce ramekin) came wrapped on a recyclable styrofoam tray. The pho was beautifully packed in two containers. The broth came in a paper soup container (lid recyclable) that kept it nice and hot. The meat, noodles, and herbs came in a 100% recyclable, microwave-safe, and reusable plastic bowl big enough to eat the soup in. The additional fresh herbs (bean sprouts, jalapenos, lime, and Thai basil) were in a plastic bag.\n\nMY LAST EXPERIENCE- I ordered take-out, fried tofu spring rolls and an Orchid combination pho. \n\n My test of any Vietnamese restaurant is to order tofu spring rolls and see what comes out. In most restaurants, this equates to an unseasoned 3/4 inch thick slab of firm tofu wrapped in rice paper with rice noodles and herbs. Not so at Pho Orchid- the fried tofu, while not seasoned, was the ideal texture to compliment the spring rolls other ingredients (bean sprouts, lettuce, rice noodles). They were moist and not sticking together, obviously fresh. The sauce was delish, a sweet peanut flavored mix drizzled with chili oil. My only thing- I wish there were fresh herbs and veggies in the spring rolls (cilantro, thai basil, pickled carrots and radish).\n\n The Orchid combination pho... Starting with the broth- you can smell and see it's beefy goodness. In a city where some Vietnamese restaurants no longer make their own broth, Pho Orchid Uptown has remained true to pho tradition. On to the noodles- PERFECTION! Usually when ordering pho on the go, I get a styrofoam hinged box complete with herbs, meat, and a gelatinized pile of rice noodles. This time around, my noodles weren't stuck together in a crippled mass. At the bottom of my take-out bowl, topped with my combination of meats (eye of round, brisket, meatball, tendon, and tripe) and herbs were perfect rice noodles- not stuck together, not in need of a major soak before consumption, but individual noodles. I was in pho heaven!\n\nMy body wiggles in delight at the thought of future trips to Pho Orchid Uptown to try out other menu items. Finally a convenient local spot with an intense Vietnamese menu to constantly tempt my taste buds!", "I'm a big fan of the other two Pho Orchid locations in Metairie but this one needs serious intervention by management ASAP! I'm done with this location until at least the end of Carnival and I had been excited about it as it is near my home and I had planned on eating here often BUT this is not up to par with the other locations. They have a limited Mardi Gras menu with jacked up prices and only are doing to go orders. I wasn't happy about discovering this after walking down from my house! Next on arriving home and opening the package I find I've been given a mostly uncooked \"Pho kit\" with raw meat and noodles with the broth separate. I stir fried the beef and noodles as the broth had no heat to cook it. Thank God I was home and not trapped on the street trying to eat this mess but I think I need a refund after having to cook my own food. Unfortunately it seems I didn't cook it enough as I've had non-stop stomach issues since eating this worst pho experience of my life and it has ruined my Carnival fun for the weekend! I'm not happy and I hope management takes rapid action to fix the unacceptable situation at this location!", "No complaints about this place! My group ordered pork/shrimp & shrimp spring rolls, beef \"tacos\" (which are really steamed buns), a banh mi, and chicken bun. My favorites were the beef steamed bun and banh mi! The bread was perfect. The service was fast and efficient. I definitely suggest giving this place a try!!!", "On a cold, rainy day during mardi gras, my friend and I just wanted to grab lunch near our place and started walking down St Charles. Most every place was closed or just not that veg friendly for me. As we walked down, catching some items from the parades rolling by, we happened to notice this one open and I'm so glad we did! I ordered the veg pho noodle soup which I usually don't seem to find anywhere and boy was it just what the doctor ordered for the cold I caught. They brought fresh basil, and not the American basil, bean sprouts and lime which helped add a little freshness and flavor to the soup. I tend to like my soups a little sour so I added some vinegar to it and of course sriracha sauce to spice it up a bit. Service was great at the place and being that it was mardi gras, there was a security guard sitting in the restaurant to make sure none of the drunk partiers were getting rowdy.", "This is a welcome option on St Charles Ave. Hop off the streetcar at Jackson and grab a bowl of pho, or their Spicy Beef Soup (Bun Bo Hue) or their Vietnamese Crepe (Banh Xeo). Everything is good. Really. Full bar and attentive service round out this great new place!", "Had a late dinner here one evening around 10pm. The restaurant is a bit small, with not much room to feel comfortable. Our server is nice, so no complaint there. Now on to the food. \n\nOrdered: duck tacos appetizer, fried wings, Bo ne, and rice with grilled pork. \n\n-Duck tacos were ok. Had better elsewhere (pho bistreaux).\n\n-Fried wings with butter is a disappointment. I was expecting wings to be deep fried and then cook in some kind of garlic butter sauce. Instead, I got regular fried wings top off with burnt onions. It tasted quite bland. My bf and I each ate one piece. The rest I took home for my babies(dogs).\n\n-My bf order the rice with grilled pork. Entree came with white rice,vegetables,and two pieces of grilled pork. Total waste of money. He took one bite of pork and didn't even bother to try another bite. I took one bite myself and that was enough for me too. No seasoning on pork. No flavor.\n\n-I had the Bo ne dish. And I must say this is quite tasty. Chunks of beef and two sunny side up eggs cooked a hot skillet. It also came with bread, butter and pate spread. The sauce on the skillet is hot and flavorful. This dish is the only thing that I would recommend trying. \n\nSo to sum up my experience. Decor C, service B, food C-. I probably won't go back. There are so many other better vietnamese restaurant to choose from in the city.", "Won't come back due to the horrible service from the lady bartender. Many times I came in to pick up my carry out, she always forget my sauce for my vermicelli bowls and rice platter. I have to consume my food plain. If I can give 0 stars I would.", "This was my first experiment with pho. It was ok, I very much liked the aromatics in the soup that open your sinuses. I think that this is just average pho and that there are better versions out there. I hope to try them soon.", "This is not the same pho orchid as in Metairie. That place is amazing. I knew this place as it was before and the same mediocre food. Don't be fooled by the name change. It only hurts the reputation of pho orchid in Metairie, which by the way I've been once and highly impressed." ]

However... they've only been open a short time and their prices have increased by 1 and 2 dollars. Their gyro plates are a good deal $$ wise and feeds over 2 people. \n\nThe wings are a little expensive for not very much - if you're going to order something, order the value meal that has a side and a drink added onto it - the cost difference is so marginal it's like pocket change extra for a soda and a side to be added.", "My boyfriend goes here all the time because it's right across the street from where he works (Boeing). One day he brought home some like gyro platter or something so you could make your own gyros at home. He brought home chicken ones, and it was very delicious. I don't think it was too expensive either, and it fed both of us. It came with fries, which were kinda bland, but I was able to spice them up with some seasoning salt I had at home. I'd give this place more than 3 stars if I'd gotten food from there more than once. I hear they have limited seatin, so that is also why I gave it 3 stars. All in all, the food was good though.", "It's a total dive and full of Boeing and blue collar workers. However, I've only been here once. I wouldn't go here for anything but a GYRO. I got my order to go and quick. For $8 I got a gyro with more meat than the sandwich required. I was pleasantly surprised at the quickness of my meal, the value, and the quality. I was more than pleasantly surprised. The meat is seasoned just awesome and not too much sauce. They have a Gyro plate for around $10 that the previous reviews mentioned. Not a lot of seating but it has a big to go lunch crowd. If you went after lunch you wouldnt have a problem with seating. It supports the Boeing crowd (like me) and it does it well. I CANT GET OVER THIS LIL DIVE SURPRISE! Going there tomorrow. Love it as do most of the men at the Boeing bldgs. I'll ahve to try a burger someday but in the mood for a GYRO FIX.", "I went here of my own accord today. As expected, the place is small, but most people get their food to-go so it doesn't matter. They did get my order wrong, but not terribly wrong. I ordered the chicken gyro meal and they charged me for and gave me the chicken gyro platter. When they realized their mistake, they offered to pay me the difference and give me what I ordered, but I told them I was ok with the platter. In the end, they gave me a free drink. I would have probably given 5 stars had they not gotten the order wrong. The food is really good though, so they get 4 stars from me this time instead of 3.", "My Gyro overflow-eth.\n\nI stopped in here for lunch and it was great. I asked what they were known for and the gorgeous woman behind the counter said, \"our gyros, the hot dogs....well pretty much everything.\" So I went with the gyro with fries and the homemade baklava. The gyro was very good and very full of meat, the fries were part of the combo deal and were pipping hot, and the baklava was a perfect sweet and flaky finish to my meal.\n\nAll in all I recommend this place to anyone looking to have a quick bite to eat that is great.", "OK, so I'm going to start with the feature you will see last - the \"Letters to God\" wall. Inside the restaurant one of the walls is covered with what look like to be children's letters. It is on the wall for at least 6 months, and possibly longer - it took me some digging to figure out what they were. Apparently they are for this movie called \"Letters to God\" (Which came out in April). It has just horrific reviews, and obviously none of the letters from Chicago Taste made it in. Sorry kids, the Pony Express missed it's stop :)\n\nSo the food... they serve Gyros, Dogs, Tacos, and other quick greasy food items. I'll mention the standouts:\n\n- Chicago Style Hot-Dog - great! It has a pickle, peppers, tomatoes, and hot peppers. You can request kraut. It's just great.\n- Polish - large polish sausage + onions on a hoagie. Also excellent.\n- Gyro - They have two types, the traditional and the chicken. Don't get the chicken. Excellent street-food type gyro.\n\nThe standout amongst the standout: *Gyro Platter*. They advertise this thing as a \"mound of meat\" and \"feeds 3 people\", and man they do not lie. This is an easy 2-3 artery clogging meals for me, and a great value. The regular gyro meal comes with a portion for 1, and costs $7something, the platter is $10.51 and is easily 3x the size. You can share it between 2-3 people.\n\nThe atmosphere is sort of what you would expect from a Chicago grab and go place... kind of dingy, eat on a wrapping paper type situation. There are a few tables around to eat in, and over lunch a constant stream of people getting take-out.\n\nMy only gripe is that (aside from the gyro platter) the place needs to be cheaper, but on the other hand there is not a similar type of eatery nearby, and their business seems good, so they are probably not going to drop their prices.\n\nIf you like the standouts I listed above, definitely go visit.", "This placy may not be fancy or very big, but I don't think you need fancy when the food tastes great! The only thing i've ever gotten here is the gyro (and on limited occasions a side of fries) and it is amazing. Overflowing with meat so much so that it almost falls apart--ps that's a good thing! It's a delicious filling meal in itself--for me at least. Just one person behind the counter, it's usually the same lady, possibly the owner but I'm unsure (they may staff more w/ the lunchtime rush from boeing and surrounding businesses) in the late afternoon, but food comes out quickly and they bring it to you. Not the best fries ever (thick cut but not crispy enough for me), but like I said the gyro by itself is definitely enough.", "Ok so this is the first place I went to based on Yelp reviews so this will be my first review on Yelp. \n\nHad the gyro platter, fries, drink and balaclava. Yes it was enough for three maybe even four people. Everything was hot (well not the sodas) fresh and tasty. Was nice to be able to make your gyro just the way you want it and the sauce was good too. The fries were great and seasoned just right. The lamb was good and the onion and tomatoes fresh. The balaclava was a nice finish to a great lunch. Definitely worth it for two people-even three. If you like gyros this is one place you will want to give a try. Will stop in again sometime...soon.\n\nThe place itself is somewhat small but there is enough room for a small group to enjoy a lunch together.", "I think this place has a solid hold on good Chicago style sandwiches and dogs. I have tried several things off their menu but I usually stick with the gyros. This place is a staple for many of my coworkers because it is so close and it is unique to anything else in the area.\nI believe it is family ran which I think is a good thing. I believe they take pride in their food.\n\nUnique and good! I like it." ]

I told her to put it in the freezer and call them immediately. She called the store and they told her to bring the salad back and they would give her a new one, strike one. Then corporate emailed her back and said they were sorry and told her that the store is a franchise and the owner would be contacting her soon, strike two. Noone even tried to contact her since. No manager or owner, or even a clerk to say they were sorry. This was one of the worst things I have ever seen at a restaurant, and I have worked in many dirty restaurants.

No, the pepperoni we ordered was perfect. Unfortunately, that is the end of the positives. Yes, on to the slagging already!\n\nThe sauce seemed like it was going to be promising. It looked quite tasty. It was red and thick, not orange and runny, like many a pathetic pie of my past. The extra sauce they provided on request sat on top of the pie, but did not drown it and turn the delicassie into pizza soup. However, when the sauce hit my mouth, it was quite underwhelming. For a moment, I wondered if I had come down with a cold, such was the dearth of taste sensation. This insult was only magnified when I realized that these money-grubbing heathens charged the extra sauce as a topping. Sauce can NEVER be treated as a topping!

The sauce and dough had good flavor and it was cooked well. The cheese steak was good - not too greasy and the right amount of ingredients.

The fried chicken hit the spot, but it's hard to screw that up, right? The grinder was the surprise of the night, as it was the perfect, greasy, comfort food I was seeking.

The order taker rattled off a half dozen named stromboli's and I cut her off after the first 5 or 6 and asked if I could just get a large one with italian sausage, meatballs and pepperoni, and a 99-cent bag of chips. The total bill came to about $18.50, not bad I THOUGHT. It was chaotic when the driver arrived because my dogs were running in circles, and I could not get the door myself, being wheelchair bound at the time. After tipping the driver a little over $5, he left and I took stock of my food.\n\nWhat arrived was a SMALL stromboli, about 1/3 the size of a large. I looked at the receipt and saw that I had been charged extra for the meatballs, extra for the sausage, and extra for the delivery. When I saw the delivery charge, I realized I was dealing with the kind of business that steals from its own employees. I know this is becoming more and more common nowadays, but stealing is stealing, no matter how many people do it. A shop owner who CHARGES for DELIVERY and does not give that fee to the driver who bears THE ENTIRE COST OF THE DELIVERY with his or her vehicle, fuel, time and effort is a petty thief. The fee for delivery originated because shop owners looked greedily with resentment on the tips their drivers received, and decided to appropriate the tip for himself. Since most people reduce their tip by the amount of the delivery fee, often reducing the tip to 0, and thus the driver's pay to 0. What was that word that means working for nothing? Oh that's right: slavery.\n\nI called and spoke to someone about the order, expecting to at least be offered a store credit for my next order, as most sensible businesses do. Instead I was told that I got what I had ordered, and even if I had said \"large\" (which I did) the price for small was correct and I received a correctly priced order. They agreed to remedy the problem by SELLING me a 2nd small stromboli and waiving the delivery fee. If I had just gotten the large I ordered in the first place, BY THEIR PRICING, I would have been charged $20. So their offer was to ultimately charge me $28 for 2/3 of a large stromboli instead of $20 (their price) for a single, correct, full-size large stromboli.\n\nWhat a shame. Because I order delivery ALL the time, and through quibbling about a price difference of a few dollars, they literally lost themselves about $500 of business for the year.", "i ordered a large half cheese half mush pizza and by any other standards it was at best a medium..the delivery took 54 minutes..the guy was nice though so he gets 5 stars..when he gave me my pizza i said are you serious this is a large pizza and lo and behold the delivery driver says yea there tiny with that knowing look of this place sucks. so long story short crappy pizza..forever delivery at 1.75 charge and a bottle of soda cost me 21$ w/ tip and lost kosmos a customer", "We've been in this neighborhood for about a year, and Kosmos is almost a weekly thing.

Overall, the rest of the menu is decent. You've got your basic fried foods, sandwiches, wraps, larger dinners, etc - We've only ever had our order botched on a Friday (and seriously, it's a friday - things happen) night and thankfully (and since we live right across the street) someone from the shop was willing to literally WALK the rest of our order to our door at no cost and they comped the forgotten part.

Can you...\nYL: I can give you samples of stuff.\nMe: Thanks, but what I really would like to know is...\nYL: It's all on the board if you want to try it.\nMe: What is the...\nYL: blah blah blah blah blah\n\nI finally gave up.\n\nThe chicken and mushroom etoufee tasted like someone had rushed to make milk gravy and accidentally spilled some rice in it. Imagine gravy made with too much flour and then undercooked. This is so far from a roux, that I thought we were at Bob Evans.\n\nThe seafood gumbo looked and tasted like beef barley soup, complete with shredded beef and rice instead of barley. Still can't quite figure that one out. We sifted through it, looking for something that resembled seafood in the peppery beef broth and finally gave up.\n\nThe jambalaya was watery, bland and had no cajun flavor characteristics. It was literally like someone made uncle Ben's rice and at the last minute said, \"darn, we forgot the sausage and all that other jambalaya type stuff. Quick, throw some in it before you serve it.\"\n\nThe crawfish casserole was...um...well, just read about the jambalaya above and replace \"jambalaya\" with \"crawfish casserole\". \n\nShrimp Po'boy. It's supposed to be on a hard bun, not a soft one. The shrimp and the side of hush puppies had the same flavor. I'm assuming there is deepfry'omatic 3000 in the kitchen where everything goes in one end and comes out the other. It was about the only edible thing in our meal. Certainly the only thing we finished.\n\nTea is out of the fountain, not brewed and tasted like a mud puddle.\n\nLong story short, it get's one star only because you can't give a place negative stars. For $7 less, we could have gone to Yats and had larger portions of the best cajun creole food outside of New Orleans. No offense to Mia, but this is not what cajun creole food is supposed to taste like.\n\nWe really hoped this would be good, because it's so close to our home compared to Yats. We'll happily make the extra drive.\n\nI need to add this after the fact. i went to their website and looked at the menu. The pictures of the dishes are nothing like what was served to us. Extremely misleading to say the least.\n\n\nEdited on 6/27/08 to add the following:\nI'm not affiliated with any restaurant, let alone a competitor of mudbugs. My taste buds are just fine and able to differentiate between all kinds of flavors, textures and consistencies.. When I was there almost a year ago, both the food and service were horrible. Perhaps in the last 11 months they've gotten their act together. If so, kudos to them. They had a long way to go and it wouldn't have been easy. Judging by the other reviews, you'll either love the place or never go back a second time.", "What Rob said.", "i didnt want to give up a star but... the place sucks!", "Over the last few months I've been hearing more and more people talk about how disgusted they were with Mudbugs. I just stood back and let them vent. I knew how important it was for them to let out how horrible the place was. I could relate with everything that at least a dozen people had talked about.\n\nHow the service was pathetic. \nHow dirty the place was. \nHow they hardly got any seafood or no seafood at all in their seafood gumbo. \nHow soupy the jambalaya and crawfish casserole is. \nThe majority of people even chuckled about the hush puppies. Saying they had to spit them out into their napkin. One person even added they almost spit it out on the floor because it would have blended in with the filth.\n\nIt is just sad that this place is taking up good space in downtown Carmel.", "My poor taste buds will never be the same. I've had some pretty horrible food, but never food so horrible that I couldn't even bring myself to finish it.", "Mudbugs is a refreshing change to Carmel's \"old town\" area. It's easy to compare it to other New Orleans style places around Indianapolis like Yats and Gumbo A-Go-Go (which are also great places) but Mudbugs branches out a little further with its delicious Corn Fritters, Crawfish Casserole, and assortment of Po' Boy Sandwiches.\n\nDon't be mistaken, creole style food isn't for everyone. If you are sensitive to spicy food or don't generally like sauce-and-rice dishes, you probably won't like Mudbugs. I, for one, love this kind of food and think Mudbugs is a great alternative to your typical Carmel lunch.\n\nRecommendations: Corn Fritters, Gumbo", "this might be my favorite restaurant in all of Indiana. The Crawfish Etouffee, the hushpuppies (best I've ever had) the pulled pork, are ALL absolutely delicious. I am addicted to this place, and I Can't wait to move back to Indy so I will have constant access to it.", "We love this place! Food is good, decor is cute and, on any number of times I have been there, I have NEVER seen the place messy, let alone dirty. \n\nIf you know anything about Cajun food, you know this place is authentic. (You can tell by all of the Louisiana State Alumni that eat there!) Crawfish Boil was great...but those are only on specific dates. Next time we will get there earlier.\n\nI find it kind of suspect that the two negative reviews seemed to be able to comment on every item on the menu. That seems kind of fishy to me, since they only ate there once and thought it was disgusting. I would never even order from a place that had floors that were supposedly so dirty. I think competitor is written all over those reviews, which is sad. \n\nI would suggest you just try it for yourself. We keep trying to work our way through the menu, but get stuck on our favorites. Pork Po\" Boy, Jambalaya and Hush Puppies are our standards. The two desserts we had were \"WOW\". Just tried the bananas foster with ice cream that won best fair food. YUMMMMMM!!! There is a reason they win these awards!", "I've never had New Orleans style food, so I have nothing to compare it to. My husband & I couldn't decide what to get so we just got 2 samplers which let us try 6 entrees. The food was good & flavorful...some things were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband liked them. Not sure if this is typical of New Orleans food, but all 6 dishes were blends of meats & vegetables in a rich sauce or soup.\n\nI agree with several others on Yelp...my favorites were the Crawfish Casserole and the Corn Fritters. Nice change of pace from my usual fare.\n\nWe also had a good experience with the staff. There were two teenage (or 20 something?) girls working there and both were very nice. It seemed more like a cafe where you order your food at the counter and the staff leave you alone after you get your food. I don't know if it was just because it was our first visit, but one girl came to our table a little while later to find out how we were doing. It was nice because she seemed genuinely interested in what we thought of the food." ]

[ "Only been once, but the coffee was excellent! Service was a little slow, but I'll chalk that up to it just opening. Glad to finally have a great coffee spot in Westhaven.", "Authentic, snooty, or snotty? Your experience will depend on your tastes.\n\nLocated in the Westhaven Town Center overlooking the lake... this is a coffee aficionado's paradise. Southern Americana meets European cafe. High quality, small portions - sip, relax, slow down and enjoy.", "Hubby and I love living in Franklin, and while we don't live in Westhaven, we frequent this neighborhood for the great little Chinese place next door. This past weekend we noticed a new neighbor to our stir fry haunt, and had to pop in. \n\nIt seems they only opened two weeks ago, and Hi Brow is a coffee place, a pastry place, and an ice cream place as well. It's a small little shop, but the coffee aroma triples its square footage if the front doors are propped open like they were on the night we visited.\n\nWe enter the front door and see this HUGE farmhouse type table with this amazing chandelier and glass domed cake stands, wire baskets of pastries, and random other goodies with comfy benches to prop up a seat. On one side there's a cooler with chilled beverages, and at the back there is a small ice cream freezer sporting about eight flavors and a helpful, smiling barista.\n\nWe had just eaten and of course were not hungry at all, which means I got ice cream. I picked a buttery caramel traditional cream based something or another flavor, and it was yummy. It was rich, way rich, I could tell I've been on pinkberry for a while now... a nice little treat.\n\nA plus for some would be that they serve you ice cream in a cup with a wooden spoon, felt like a balsa wood or something. I'm all for saving the planet, and I get that plastic is practically forever, but I gotta say the sensation of that wooden spoon in your mouth with ice cream... not a fan. It was just weird.\n\nWill we stop back in another day? I'm sure we will. And I'll opt for a cone, and probably pick a less rich flavor for my palate, but cute nonetheless.\n\nThe barista/ice cream scooper lady said the name Hi Brow comes from the name of the farm the owners also own. And if you're thinking that huge neon sign is just an HB and not Hi Brow, you'd be right. Signage isn't big here, but in a community like Westhaven, that's OK. Cute place, independently owned, stop in for a visit.", "Good coffee. Great cheesecakes and ice cream. Awesome to be able to walk / bike to get a cuppa.", "Very knowledgable baristas who make excellent drinks! Great ice cream, pastries and biscotti, too! Wonderful atmosphere with a nice breeze from the little lake - with very cute duck families!", "I always stop here on the way to work for an iced tea, probably the best iced tea I have had in a long time, I need to ask what brand they use. I love the decor of this place, it feels cozy and modern. When I am feeling super hungry, their biscuits with various fillings hit the spot. I deducted one star for price ($4 for small unsweet tea seems a bit high, although I do appreciate the food quality), lack of large to go tea glasses (notice a trend here?), and lack of lemons for tea drinkers. Do not go here expecting a later breakfast, as they often run out of items, but I noticed they have been adding more options so this may be changing. Overall great experience!", "The all black decor is a bit much, as I sat at the bar trying to see my phone from the glare coming off the single window at the front of the store & the hanging lights. I'm sorry guys but i just couldn't see. It's a small shop so you can hear everyone else's conversations. If you want to sit out side, there are a very few tables allocated to the \"High Brow\" store.Ii tried to sit 5 feet away to allow the people next to me more privacy, but the worker from the Asian restaurant next door immediately came out and asked me to move, even though there was no one else out there! Now for the coffee - I ordered a double shot latte. Service was slow, coffee was overpriced, and it just wasn't hot. There was nothing but turbinado sugar in a huge jug that was difficult to get out without pouring too much. Overall, I just wasn't impressed. I won't be back. The search for a quality, HOT latte in Franklin/Brentwood continues.", "I was recommended to this coffee shop. It was a ways out there for a drive for coffee. Hands down best vanilla mocha I've ever had. It was amazing! The iced tea was absolutely delicious as well. I wish I could bring back some iced tea back home! Very friendly staff who made my mocha so cute with designs in it. It's definitely worth the drive out there to visit this coffee shop. It also has a cute little area out front for nice days!", "Parked myself inside High Brow Brew this morning- a quaint little shop with pallet walls & homemade sausage biscuits inside the Westhaven community. It might have taken me a little drive to get here but it is divine. The baristas are passionate about their coffee & they make a great slow pour.", "Excellent coffee, ultra friendly baristas. Quaint decor and quiet atmosphere. \n\nEgg pies are delicious. Quite flavorful. \n\nThey need better signage, as we knew it was here but the sign was totally missable. Beautiful carved wood, but... Almost unreadable. \n\nHow about a small, subtle lighted or LED coffee cup in the window?" ]

[ "I was surprised to find such a small menu at a Red Lobster. Usually Red Lobsters have many pasta dishes and alternatives to plain fish dishes. The food we had was okay, but nothing too exciting.", "And Another One Bites the Dust!\n\nA couple of stories, to remember the next time you see those commercials:\n\nI was never happy with Red Lobster, except for those amazing Biscuits. I always said, \"I know they microwave their food!\" Well, on a layover and change of planes in Dallas, TX. I happened to be standing next to Executives from Red Lobster. One of them asked me if I had any matches, ( this was before 911 ). I dug some out and said yes, but can you answer me a question? She said yes. I said, \"Do you microwave your food?\". They all looked at each other and then she said, \"we are only supposed to do that when we are busy and we suspect some restaurants do it more than they should.\"\n\nI KNEW IT!!! and they all do. Unflavored, not sauteed or baked or broiled Seafood. Bland and just un-good! Yes that is a new word. ungood!\n\nAnother Story, to remember, after watching those commercials: \n\nWe sat in the Bar area and a Server broke a glass right down into the ice. I then watched several servers use this ice, after the culprit walked away. I told my server and the Bartender saw it, but ignored it. Here she was the manager! Someone could have died!\n\nNo one cares. Not the lazy cooks or the lazy servers or the lazy managers.\n\nThis is why Red Lobster is ungood!\n\nP.S. I have the simple Biscuit recipe! \n\n 2 cups Bisquick\n 2/3 c. milk\n 1/2 c. shredded cheddar\n 1/4 c. butter melted\n 1/2 tsp. garlic powder (or more if you prefer)\n \n Mix baking mix, milk & cheese until soft dough forms, beat vigorously 30\n seconds.

Bookmark it or jot it down. It is the only good remaining from the Red Lobster Restaurant!", "If you've never been to a Red Lobster, then you've obviously been living in some sort of cave or out in The Arctic Circle or something.\nRed Lobster of course is the preeminent middle scale seafood chain restaurant. I went there last Friday night with 3 of my friends and my friends 5 year old daughter.\nI was shocked when we were seated right away, even though it was already about 8:30 PM, because the parking lot was jam packed as usual. We of course helped ourselves to the fantastical other-wordly Biscuits they are best known for. Then it was on to Salads (I had a Ceasar), which was fresh and pretty good (might have had too much dressing on it for some people, but I like that).\nFor my entree I decided to go with a newer item over my usual Ultimate Feast because I had just eaten an Oreo Ice Cream Sandwich an hour before we got to the restaurant. I went with the Peach Bourbon BBQ Shrimp & Bacon Wrapped Scallops Skewers. They were shockingly delicious. The sauce was just sweet enough that it was a perfect match for the salty Bacon on the Scallops. The Shrimp was also cooked as good as it gets at Red Lobster. My gigantic Baked Potato was also good with its salt rub and sour cream. Hell, Red Lobsters pretty solid for a chain joint. The service was also pretty good, and quick for a Friday night. I wanted to get the Chocolate Chip Cookie with Molten Chocolate Center because it looked AMAZING, but I just didn't have the room for it. Plus the whole aforementioned ice cream sandwich. Anyways, good stuff all around.", "a fan, especially loves the biscuit...", "Cashed in my Mother's Day gift from hubby and went out to get some lobster last night (Saturday night) .Again we got a babysitter and were out to get away from the kids.\n\nWe didn't have to wait because I snagged a seat-yourself table for two in the bar area. No kids there!\n\nDrinks:\nRed Lobster is usually the only place I can count on before I walk in the door to have Parrot Bay coconut rum on hand for a piña colada. Well, wouldn't you know they were OUT of it this night. GRR. So I tried the Sunset Passion Colada with some Bacardi O and it wasn't that great. The strawberry garnish was overripe and I couldn't even eat it. I made up a drink and ordered Alizé Red Passion liqueur on the rocks with a splash of cranberry and ginger ale. The bartender didn't think I'd like the stuff but I did...it's made with passion fruit, of course I like it!\nIt was nice and strong, had her garnish with an orange wedge and that was old too...I advise they restock the fruits or not prepare so many before hand as I do like to eat them with my beverage.\n\nAnyway....\n\nThe Food:\nI just had to try the lobster nachos...I'd been craving Mexican food but had a gift card to Red Lobster, so it was perfect. They were delicious! I liked that and I'm a native Texan, so that's saying a lot.\n\nI was starting to get full though so I didn't really eat much of my salad.\nI had the Rock Lobster tail...HELL YEAH, that bad boy was perfectly cooked and delicious. The bartender/server cut it off the tail for me and tried to take away the shell but I told her to leave it cuz I wanted to pick off the little morsels LOL! I almost tried the live Maine Lobster but I didn't want to do the work and it only had about 6oz of meat in comparison to the amazing 12oz of Rock Lobster tail. \n\nMy husband had the Ultimate Feast and he was quite happier with his Maine lobster tail, although smaller than mine of course hehe, and the fried shrimp was as expected (I like mine crunchier than they do it there, but I digress), he substituted grilled shrimp for the scampi (less buttery saucey stuff) and they were really good. Unfortunately the mashed potatoes were instant. You can totally tell and what a shame. The seafood was consistent and good, but even Outback uses real potatoes...I was better off with my steamed broccolli (which was thankfully not coated in butter). \n\nThe woman serving us (and the people behind the bar) was on her toes all night and she was very knowledgeable on the food (how I got my weight stats above) and super friendly in a non-annoying or fake manner. She was great and so we left a well-deserved tip. I had a great time sitting in the bar area and I didn't miss anything about the dining room area...we could even see the Phillies game on. :)", "I know I promised my stomach that I would avoid chain restaurants if I could help it, especially around my neighborhood. I'm not saying they're bad, but just too commercialized for my taste. Red lobster is usually always packed with cars, as well as the Olive Garden next to it so maybe it wasn't too bad.. It was rainy that morning after our adventure at the driving range. We were starved and chose Red Lobster on a whim. Bad idea..It was like shopping at the grocery store with an empty stomach. A total mouthful of regrets. \n\nOur eyes were bigger than our stomachs. We started off with the stuffed mushrooms and the lobster bisque. The stuffed mushrooms were okay, not anything to excite my taste buds. The lobster bisque was too salty. Of course, all I really wanted were the biscuits. I used to crave these biscuits. Now that I had them...it seems like everything is tastier in our minds. \n\nFor entrees, we ordered the Lobster Lovers (it was lobsterfest). The rock lobster was rubbery and overcooked. The Maine lobster tail was decent but small. The pasta was creamy (not that that is a bad thing but it doesn't present itself well as leftovers). We also got the NY Strip Oscar. It was topped off with lobster bits. The steak itself wasn't seasoned; good thing for hot sauce! \n\nWe also had the Strawberry Smoothie..I wonder what's in that for it to be curdling so soon after... \n\nAll in all, we spend $100 for lunch...and left quite unsatisfied.", "Sucked all the way around. Bartender ignored us for at least 20 minutes. Stuffed flounder was soggy and tasted microwaved . Biscuits were great n so was our waitress. But the overall experience just flat out stunk,", "Since our birthdays are back to back, we planned a fancy dinner to celebrate. On my actual birthday, I chose a casual meal at Red Lobster to celebrate. I know, I know. What was I thinking? Whatever. I haven't been to RL in years and I was craving some cheddar bay biscuits. I had a Caesar salad and the make your own meal with fried shrimp and grilled salmon. T had the grilled shrimp, scallops and lobster. The shrimp were crunchy, the salmon tender. The lobster sweet and buttery. Is it the best seafood I've ever had? No. But if you go in with the right (ie, non-snooty) expectations, I don't think you'll be disappointed." ]

[ "I can't believe no locals have reviewed this place. Delicious food. Huge portions. My husband and I went here the first time because of word of mouth. The only disappointment was that we were riding our bikes downtown and were uninformed enough to order the large cubans. We couldn't possibly eat it all and had no way to bring leftovers home. \nThis is really a take-out place. The cuban is outstanding and generous although not a \"typical\" cuban. It is pressed, but usually cubans don't have quite so much meat. It also has lettuce, tomato, and the wonderful special sauce. They have some specials that look and smell great (and everyone raves about them -- especially the meatloaf), but I love this cuban sandwich so much (I also love traditional cubans). If you want a dainty meal, this place is not for you. You could not make this food at home for this price.\nIt is family owned and they are a warm bunch. I do miss Papa J (Joe, I think) who passed away a few years ago. He really knew how to work a crowd.", "Tiny hole in the wall. Word to the wise, cash only. Otherwise, you will have to use the atm, no doubt to the financial benefit of this crap shack. Strange they don't tell you that to begin with. Now on to the most important thing, the food, if I dare go to that extent. The 'Cuban' was a disgusting and sorry excuse for one. I have no doubt that not one person in there has even 1% Cuban ethnicity. Personally, I felt sick for the entire day and night after eating only two bites. What kind of Cuban has two mounded piles of Walmart brand ham and boiled pork. Then, rather than mustard and pickles, it comes with a spoonful of mayo, lettuce & tomato? This place needs to have the health inspector come shut it down immediately. .", "I say this without hesitation: the single best sandwich I've ever had is the cuban sandwich here. It is unbelievable!\n\nDo yourself a favor and go to this amazing place and try their cuban. You will never have one better. Make sure you are hungry, though, and bring cash.", "The roast beef on their variation of the cuban changed my life! Every bite was just amazing! I use the word variation because their cuban is not traditional as far as mustard and pickles go, I would not change one thing about the sandwich by any means.The employees were welcoming and helpful. This is my kind of food!", "I've been going to this place for a long time - since they were at their previous location. My Grandpa actually introduced me - he used to bring Papa J his produce.\n\nAll I have tried are the sandwiches. And they are HUGE. I mean, the small Cuban is bigger than your head. Serious. You will be full for days after eating a sandwich from here. Not really a cuban, but whatever - I get mine fully dressed with their special sauce. So good. But seriously... the sandwich is HUGE.", "The best Cuban sandwich in Tampa bay. Huge portions, the small sandwich is more then enough for one person. Cash only.", "they have a great non-traditional Cuban with lettuce, tomato, onion and a garlic aioli which is extremely good.", "This could be the best Cuban sandwich in St. Pete. The pork is delicious and very plentiful. They put a non-traditional sauce on it, but it is really good. I need to venture away from just getting the Cuban here. I hear the meatloaf and the salads are awesome (the chicken cordon bleu salad looked awesome). One of my buddies saw me check in on twitter, and decided to go there the same day.\n\nThey do not have seating, so it is pretty much a takeout place. It can also get pretty slammed at lunch time. The owners are there everyday and are very friendly. The best way to describe this place is a diamond in the rough.", "Great small takeout, HUGE sandwich. Great bread, fantastic pork, soft delicate lean meat, the sauce is the best! Hidden gem really.. Run by kind simple Mom and son...\nGreat for the worker guys lunch. Also the salads are amazing meat extravaganza!", "ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! We had a\nLarge Cuban, it's a total gut buster! This is the biggest Cuban I have ever been served. Granted, I did order a large, but still, I'm a big eater and this filled me up. The Rice and Beans with a meat (we had pork) is OUT OF THIS WORLD! The pork is some of the best I have ever had.

So excited they opened a second location.", "Indy finally has a standalone vegan restaurant! \n\nThe food is amazing - we had mac and cheese croquettes, the pulled seitan sandwich, and the rich girl cornmeal crusted tofu on a baguette (both sandwiches came with fries). Oh, and chips and guac! They also have a bar if you are so inclined to have adult beverages with your meal. They don't have desserts at this time, but I'm hopeful they'll eventually start serving the chocolate chip cookie dough cheesecake bars they have at their City Market location. \n\nThe staff is super friendly and cool, and the vibe is just amazing with all the enthusiastic veggie/vegan diners. This would be a great place to take any carnivore family/friends who scoff at your plant-based lifestyle. Three Carrots definitely proves that no animals need to be harmed in the making of a delicious meal!", "so happy to have this special nice fun place in the neighborhood. friendly faces and killer food. things are nice here and everything is good. i recommend eating the food and drinking what they have to drink.", "Full disclosure- This review is for soft opening. So excited that this location is finally open & absolutely thrilled with the menu! Carnivore husband would not stop stealing bites of my country fried seitan & loved the Mac n cheese croquettes (totally didn't realize it wasn't actually cheese).\nHands down best app was the poutine- that mushroom gravy is ridiculous. Mac n cheese croquettes were good but need consistency in sizing. One of the 3 was very large & frozen in the middle. Needs to be 4 balls honestly. The hot sauce served with them was fantastic & we drizzled it all over a sandwich as well. Polenta fries were good but have had them many other places with similar flavor profile.\nI want my last meal to be the country style- think chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes & Mac n cheese smothered in gravy. The Bahn Mi was my fave at the city market location & still fantastic. Something about those fresh sliced jalapeños. Friend really enjoyed cauliflower steak. Only disappointment was the pulled sandwich- it needed a sauce or maybe some slaw, tasted dry and missing something. We were served salads with the meals that had some really great dressing options. All the food looked amazing, the restaurant has really taken the next level with Three Carrot's food.\nThey have lunch & brunch menus so we will def be back to again. They will also have craft sodas (wasn't working first night) which is a fun addition. Healthy selection of wines & craft beers too. Service is still learning- they will figure it out but plan to be patient the first couple of weeks.\nThree Carrots is a gem because they do comfort food that isn't just vegan- it's legitimately honest to goodness food pure & simple.", "Finally! I love Three Carrots, and I am so happy it finally has a place to call home. I know once they work out the kinks, this place will be amazing. We went during their first brunch service this morning, and the Country Breakfast was delicious. Service was fantastic. Go here. Go here now.", "I love Three Carrots so much!! So glad they have finally opened a stand alone restaurant! I went for brunch on the second day they were open with a bunch of omnivore friends- all had a great experience!! Of course they are still working out some kinks as they're flooded with business and brand new, but the food was amazing and the atmosphere peaceful. I got the loaded B&G (biscuits and gravy) with tofu scramble and loved every bite- I didn't think that anyone could beat my homemade tofu scramble, but this was pretty close. I also had some of the eggs Benedict and roasted potatoes and really enjoyed that. The wait time was a bit long, but the price was definitely right. I will be back many times in the future. Thanks to Three Carrots for making it easy to spread that vegan love!", "Some things just make sense. You want good steak? Go to a steak house. You want a good burger? Go to a burger place. (I hate reviews that order some obscure menu item and then complain that it wasn't the best they had ever had. Really???)\n\nSo it seems to make sense that if you are a meat eater, but want to try something Vegan, then go to a place that specializes in Vegan foods and has a lot of options for you to try. That was the case for my visit to Three Carrots' new sit down restaurant on Virginia Avenue, on the Fountain Square side of the interstate overpass. My visit came during the first week and the sign wasn't even up on the outside and the roof was being worked on. It may not look open if you drive by, but trust me, it is and ready to serve!\n\nSo, after finding free street parking, I entered into the newly refurbished building. The interior was a mixture of artistic ceiling lanterns and art work with bare concrete floors and unadorned tables. There were a number of two-top and some longer tables, and in the back on the left side, some bar stool seating.\n\nI was greeted promptly and sat at one of the two-tops. The waitress brought me a menu of lunch items as well as beverages (including alcoholic types) to choose from. \n\nBeing curious and having had little exposure to Vegan cuisine, I thought it best to order something that had meat and dairy counterparts out in the restaurant world. I started with the \"Mac and Cheese Croquettes\" and then ordered the \"Seitanderloin\" as my sandwich.\n\nThe croquettes are made from what looks like mac and cheese, then rolled in breading, and deep fried. I got five croquettes, somewhere between the sizes of golf balls and tennis balls, and my choice of BBQ or Buffalo sauce. Too big for even my big mouth, I cut each croquette and dipped them into the sauce. Wow! Very nice texture and flavor. The BBQ sauce had a little bit of heat (mostly in the aftertaste) and really complemented the M&C. I still don't know what binding agent they use instead of cheese, but whatever it was, it did a fair job of looking like cheese and mostly held the croquette together. Note that once you break the outer breading, there is enough moisture inside that the noodles may not stay in place. At least they weren't dry and pasty, so chasing a stray noodle wasn't too much to accept.\n\nMoving on to the sandwich, it also did a fair job of taking on the look of a breaded tenderloin, even extending beyond the bun as all good tenderloins do! The sandwich comes impaled with a steak knife for those who like to slice their sandwich in half. Here I encountered one of the negatives. The \"meat\" part of the sandwich was a bit overcooked and made slicing through the sandwich neatly a bit difficult. The sandwich also comes stacked with tomatoes, lettuce, red onion, mustard, and garlic aioli, and maybe some pickle (I don't recall seeing them, but they are listed on the menu.) I ended up toppling my sandwich halves during the carving, but quickly reassembled the halves and took my first bite.... and I liked it! The bit of overcooking made for a delightful crunch which my teeth had no trouble cutting through. The flavor was very similar to a seasoned breaded tenderloin and provided a satisfying chew. (I've had an under cooked bean burger elsewhere before and it fell apart, so I recommend erring on the side of crispy, not soggy.) \n\nThe sandwich also came with blue chips and salsa on the side. The chips were crisp and the salsa a bit tangy, but served in a very small round dish. Since the salsa was not thick, it tended to fall off the pointed end of the chips. I ended up breaking my chips into smaller pieces to better scoop out more salsa. Hopefully, the mgmt will figure out a better way to make salsa dipping easier.\n\nService was friendly, welcoming, and prompt. Water was iced in pitchers and was topped off during my meal. Noise level was moderate with a mixture of music styles playing over the speakers.\n\nOverall, even if you aren't a Vegan, they have very approachable options that are available if you want to expand your palate exposure. I did, and I liked it!\n\nReview #461", "Excellent! Everything was absolutely delicious from the wine to the fries to the sandwiches. Service was great too. Coming back tomorrow before we leave for breakfast!", "YAY-VEGAN HEAVEN!-My wife and I had brunch and my Country Breakfast ($12) was delicious. It was vegan egg, deep fried seitan, roasted potatoes and kale smothered with vegan gravy. My wife had the B&G ($8)-rosemary biscuits with white gravy and roasted potatoes. The biscuits were sweet tasting, which might be by design. Both of our potato dishes were cold and my 'egg' was also. Given that they opened very recently, I will give them a pass on the temperature and the slow food delivery. The portion sizes were generous. Gender neutral bathrooms-another yay! The stools could use backs. There is a bar area and wine and beer is served. Open kitchen, right up front. Our server, Rose, was friendly and attentive. I will be back anytime I possibly can.", "Delicious. Great service. Dishes that even a meat eater would love. And run by wonderful people!" ]

[ "This place caught my eye as I was walking down 104th Street. It looked very unique and it drew me in.\n\nIt's a cozy spot with black furnishings and beautiful burgundy walls with black trim. There are huge windows on one wall covered with gold curtains with burgundy details. Along the wall with the windows is a long bench seat with lots of decorative throw pillows along the back. \n\nJust inside the door is the tapas kitchen area. At the back of the establishment is an impressive wine bar. \n\nI was fortunate to get a table in the nearly full hot spot. The sommelier, whom I expect was also the owner, recommended the Casa Girelli Syran which is a Sicilian red wine. I was very pleased with the selection. \n\nI felt very inspired by this place. I could see myself writing here. \n\nThis would be a great place to take a date you're trying to impress.", "This place is great. The food is good, the wine list is great, the atmosphere is cool. It's so small it is like having your own secret hideout. Every time I go here I feel like Edmonton is getting to be a decent place to live.", "I went here on Saturday and had a glass of wine. My boyfriend ordered a Stella but the owner brought him out the same glass of wine as me, (we think it was due to the music being too loud) it was really hard to have a conversation due to the overpowering music and the fact that your 3 feet away from everyone else, and have to compete over their voices as well. \n\nIt was very tiny, basically the size of a 4 stall washroom... \nThere is no room to move around, but the interior is nicely painted in a deep red and there's modern black furniture.. \nI don't think I would go here ever again due to the fact that 2 glasses of wine (one my bf didn't even order) came to $40.00 and it was just to tiny for my taste! -", "I stopped in here to meet some friend's. I had never heard of it before and had no idea what to expect. It was a very nice looking place, very fancy on the inside and they had a very cool wine bar at the back. \n\nI actually never tried anything here because I only came to meet friend's and we were leaving right away. I would love to go back and give it a try though.", "Always friendly service, good drink recommendations (especially if you're not sure what you want) and overall good tapas. They always do their best to accommodate your group despite their small space. As such, I enjoy the weeknights for a quieter drink that some of the other bars downtown. Note that they are closes on Mondays. Great spot!", "I wish I could live here. The only thing missing would be a few lighter menu options. If you can't eat meat, or dairy, you're kind of screwed. Just order some more wine and you'll be ok.\n\nOn market day, however, we checked it out for brunch--surprisingly yummy!", "Went here last night, wtih fellow yelpers. Although this wine bar is sort of small it has a warm, homely, yet chic atmosphere about it. Not too loud, decent music plays in the background and the occasional sound of grilling meat with eruptions of fat burning. The wine selection is really good and they have a unique color coding of wines with corresponding food pairings, making it easy to get the most of your wine and tapas evening.\n\nNow, the menu is exquisite with every tapas being intriguing, yet mouthwatering. I do feel, however, that the list of tapas is quite small (perhaps 10 items) and is generally a big serving to be shared. A good comparison can be made with Lalola Bar, a generic tapas bar in San Francisco:\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz/lalola-bar-de-tapas-san-francisco-2\n\nHowever, it is worth mentioning that for a small room that fits perhaps 7 tables, the menu is fine. The steak crostinis (and mushroom crositins) were excellent and so was the antipasto platter. The serving sizes were good too, for the price. \n\nComing back to the wine, the server who also seemed to be the owner, knew a lot about his wines and served us some interesting wines (petite sirah, syrah, tasty blends, riojas etc.). I think between us, we probably had 9-10 different wines, a few of which were the server's selections. I didn't get a chance to try the hard liquors, but they seemed to have a small but good list of whiskies, vodkas, gins etc. \n\nFinally, it is worth saying a word or two about the washroom. It's a single, common washroom which is loaded with personal accessories like, hairspray, tampons, hand lotions, mouthwash etc.; apart from the regular soap and toilet paper. It sure feels like you're visiting someone's home!", "I LOVE Tzin!! My favourite wine bar in the world thus far (ok, so I haven't gone to all that many), Tzin is a tiny and intimate spot that's just bursting with good food, good wine, good staff, good decor and good atmosphere. \n\nTzin is going for excellent quality in small doses, from their 10 item (but delicious) tapas menu to their 1 bathroom that looks like something out of a home decor magazine for the rich. Expect to be crammed in and not have much elbow room, but expect it not to really matter as you enjoy the company of good friends and the knowledgeable and friendly advice of the servers and owners. \n\nThe wine menu changes frequently, so be ready to try something new - the servers have a wealth of information and are great at helping wine newcomers like myself find something new they'll enjoy every time. If you're hungry, go for the steak or mushroom crostini - both are heavenly. \n\nThe one concern is that Tzin isn't cheap - while it's easily affordable if you want just one (half) glass of wine, if you're planning to make a night of it there or to eat enough tapas to constitute dinner, things may get expensive fast.\n\nThat said, it's definitely worth the expenditure, as the quality found at Tzin is difficult to find even at places that cost far more. Just one word of advice: show up early if you actually want to get seats - Tzin is relatively full of the after-work crowd until about 7pm, but then fills up for the evening by 9:30 (but they do take reservations).", "If I could live in Tzin everyday, without becoming a total wine-and-tapas hedonist, I would. Just knowing a place like Tzin exists in our city, makes me love it a little bit more. \n\nWhenever I'm craving great wine and delectable food, served in an intimate and decadently draped hollow, located on 104 St (next to deVine Wines) I now know where to go to satiate the lover and tzinner in me.\n\nThe owner, Glen, knows not only his wines, but your wines. He listens to what you like, then if you're open to his picks, he will take you on a tour de grapes you won't soon forget! \n\nFor me, he chose the 2004 Gloriosa Rioja, forever altering my view of the Spanish red. Next, the Glen Carlou Grand Classique from South Africa, followed by Dierberg Three Saints Syrah (U.S.A.) Both: exquisite. \n\nThen he poured a glass of the Petit Syrah Rosenblum 2006 and I fell a little deeper in love. All of this, with tasty tapas, including sirloin and mushroom crostinis and a delicious antipasto platter. If you're looking for a special place to hold a small, intimate gathering, this is perfect. Also great for a third date or anniversary. Reserve to avoid disappointment. It doesn't take much to fill this place - seems lots of other Edmontonians also love living in tzin.", "I wandered into Tzin on Friday night and was instantly made to feel welcome by the wonderful crew there. Even though the place was packed, the beautiful and charming Kelsey convinced me to stay, found me a place at the bar, introduced me to fantastic locals and made me feel totally comfortable. The selection of food and wine was great, service impeccable and warm, I could have stayed all night. I have travelled all over the world, Tzin has got a place in my Canadian top 10!" ]

[ "Syberg's is in the same genre' as Bennegins, Applebees, etc. with a fishy little twist that I like. \n\nAttached to the Hampton Inn on Market, it is a casual and popular eating place for the local lunch crowd, happy hour crew and hotel guests. It has a sporty atmosphere, a bar/smoking area and the decor has local flavor. \n\nIf you are looking for a sandwich, burger, salad or plate of pasta, you are in a good spot. The appetizer menu is also decent and features the usual suspects: chicken wings, potato skins, etc. \n\nWhat I'd like to suggest to you are the two things that really sets them apart. Number one, the shark bites (available as an appetizer or as a lunch/salad combo). They are tender, lemony, seasoned and served with drawn butter for dipping. If you get the appetizer you get a fruit salad (mine was mixed melons, pineapple and a single grape. :( I really like grapes, sadly). If you get the lunch combo it comes with a tossed salad. \n\nI grew up near the ocean and let me assure you that most shark leans towards the dense and dry. But not here. Next time I go I'm going to actually try the shark steak dinner. I can't wait!\n\nWe also had a turkey club croissant. The bread was flaky and buttery, just perfect. The fries were ...eh... crinkly and could be bought at Schnucks for $1.99 frozen in the bag... but the sandwich itself was great, no complaints at all. \n\nMy Number two reason for trying Syberg's... the beer. The BIG beer. They call it the Macho. I have no idea how big it is, but it can't be less than 40 oz and served in an ice cold glass mug. The beer stays cold, even if you are a nurser. \n\nI've tried a few of the other things as well - pastas, salads, bread. All good, not outstanding, but certainly solid and reliable with regards to quantity and taste. \n\nNow, here is the thing Syberg's gets HUGE points from me on. I had to be somewhere very nearby by 1 p.m. We were seated at Syberg's at about 12:21 p.m. I told our waitress that I was in a super hurry. She said 'no problem'. We ordered, ate, paid (using a credit card), had cheesecake wrapped up and taken to go and I made it in the door of my destination by 12:57 p.m. I was beyond impressed and for that reason alone they are forgiven for the fries. :)\n\nP.S. The cheesecake was yummy. Vanilla bean and the Raspberry. \n\nP.S.S. They don't normally deliver, but I know that they DO make an exception for the poor guests over at the Courtyard Marriott, since they have no attached restaurant of thier own.", "Yeah, it's a lesser-form of the Gravois Syberg's, but it's downtown, with little or no glitzy ploys to get you in there. It's just a Syberg's. Good times will roll.\n\nI've tried their shark bites, which are tasty. Shark is a meaty fish and is a lot more dense than, say cod or Pollock, which can be found in many bar fried fish selections. Syberg's claims that they use Mako shark as their main ingredient, and I'll take it. It's pretty good stuff.\n\nWhat's really cool is the combination of awkwardly horrible and truly great karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights. Yes, you can be a part of that world, too. After a poor rendition of some Gorillaz song, I was followed by two guys who rocked the Boyz 2 Men and New Kids On The Block.\n\nIt was a drag... But at least I got my 15 minutes of \"fame.\"", "Before even being seated everytime, we are heading to this syberg's location it smells like chlorine. Why you ask? The hotel/swimming pool is next/attached to the restaurant. \n\nThe restaurant is small and service is decent. The last time I came to this location our waitress disappeared, but times before we never had a problem. \n\nFood: A decent selection of dishes if you are not a vegetarian. I had the house salad, which consisted of 4 ingredients, bland. My dinner guest had the chicken wings, and in the past before I stopped eating meat they were delicious and he confirms that they are just as tasty. \n\nGame Day: If you head here for a game, you will not be disappointed. TVs cover the joint, plus they have drink specials going on game day.", "I ordered the shark steak without the butter. Not good. The shark tasted very fishy. Not my style. The service was fast. There wasn't very much low fat fare if I can remember. But, then again, this is bar food. I agree with the previous review that the restaurant is small. They do have a wide selection of drinks.", "This place was awesome. Great vibe and the most amazing wings I have ever eaten. Get the original hot wings!", "Despite Syberg's being located in a hotel, it's not a hotel restaurant. It's restaurant located in a hotel -- pretty simple, eh?\n\nI've enjoyed by visits to Syberg's - the shark (I get it Cajun style -- I don't remember if this is officially on the menu, but I ask for it and I get it) has been consistently good. Maybe it is fishy, but it's that tasty type of fishy. Like if you were a hungry seal or otter, you'd be happy.\n\nBeers are giant and cocktails are strong. What else do you need?\n\n(caveat emptor - the house salad has Provel. You've been warned!)", "Happy hour 4-7pm. 32oz draft beer $5. The food is OK, nothing spectacular but I thought the wings were very good. Worth a visit . . . especially if you're very thirsty!", "Indoor smoking?? Are you freaking kidding me? This is 2010, not 1940. I'm floored that indoor smoking is allowed here. Secondhand smoke makes me ill, and I don't like to smell like smoke when I go home. I only want to consume food and drink, not 69+ carcinogens. Plus it was unbelievably loud. Get a clue!", "I was priveledged enough to be a guest of the Pear Tree Inn (that would be sarcasm kids) and frequented Sybergs pretty much every night for 7 nights. The food LOOKS like it should be good, but it's not. It's bland and boring. I tried the shark bites (their specialty). Not good. The wings with their 'special sauce' were tolerable. The only thing that seemed to have a tiny bit of flavor was the pizza, but still, it just wasn't that great. The drinks were ok, the service depended on the night... the night 'Snooky' was working was probably the worst. She plunked herself down at our table \"because she was off\" and proceeded to get ridiculously drunk and make an ass out of herself for the next 3 hours hitting on some colleauges. It was painful to watch.", "This Syberg's has a lot to offer and they just recently remodeled to make it look more classy in the dining area. \n\nThey not only have great food, but they offer a shuttle for $2 each way to all Blues games. I have used this service a few times and it's nice not to have to pay for parking and be dropped off at the front door of Scottrade. \n\nThey also have Karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights which is always a fun time. Great happy hour specials and nightly specials except for Saturdays are also a huge plus! The only negative I can think of is that parking is a pain due to it being in a hotel. \n\nThey had a huge post St. Pat's parade celebration where they had the local band \"Joe Dirt\" playing in the parking lot. Awesome time! \n\nI have some great memories here at Syberg's and I will be back." ]

[ "okay, im not just writing here because my daddy owns this place, but the hot wings are really REALLY good! they have different levels of spices, and the sauce is yummmmmmmmmy! its a secret family recipe! i always go for the medium sauce cause its sour and spicy enough for me to enjoy. & i love celery sticks dipped in ranch sauce. the ranch sauce is home made also, and its delicious! they offer alot of other stuff too like burgers, fries, zucchini, fried shrimps and other fried stuff, ribs, toast, shakes and alot of other variety of drinks. (but no beer, haha.) everything is made when you order so its super fresh and hot. its a good size small fast food place, but you can dine in too, it has A/C cause u know how hot arizona gets, a tv to watch while you eat, clean restrooms, and my family are very friendly! or u can takeout. there is a drive through window too. =) since i live in cali, i only see my daddy once or twice a year. everytime i do go, i cant wait to eat his chicken! i crave for it all the time! i always joke with him to overnight it to me, lol. \n\nyou should def. go in and try their buffalo wings, and you will be addicted... just like me!", "There is nothing not to love to eat or drink in this place. I drove past it for years before I finally stopped in and now I keep telling people they've got to try it. It's a great mix, awesome wings with all kinds of sauces, the absolute best beans and rice you've ever had, and I'm a beans and rice fanatic, and great variety of beverages including horchata to cool down the spicy stuff.", "I'm from Buffalo, NY area and, dare I say it, Buffalo Bell's are PERFECT and just as good as the Anchor Bar (where wings first originated in Buffalo, NY). Great job!! Gets a little pricey with no \"combo meals\" offered (wings, fries & drink for example) but I am thrilled to have FINALLY found my favorite wing place in Tucson. I will be a new \"regular\", for sure!", "Family owned business that makes great wings! I come here once a week and they treat me like family. Just replaced tables so its much nicer", "first off- I got really excited when I found this place next to my work... and then reading the reviews I got even more excited.... but then I got to eat lunch and this is the result- \n\nthe wings: they look almost home made (like something I could have made in my own kitchen), but the texture and the taste leave you wanting more for sure!\n\nthe ranch: this is the 2nd reason I eat wings (maybe the first), I love ranch, from pretty much anywhere except McDonald's.... but this ranch has got to go..... I would rate the ranch 1/5 stars... it was warm..... it was runny (wouldn't even stay on the wing runny) and the taste left something to be desired!\n\nThe veggies: I literally got a to go order and the entire Styrofoam container was filled with this \"red\" sauce..... totally gross to see the carrots swimming in that sauce, I almost couldn't eat the wings it looked totally gross!\n\nI absolutely love chicken wings, I am sure my wife will testify to that effect!\n\nSo taking into account my love, my passion, my undying need for chicken wings: this place has got to be by far the worst wing house I have even found.... the reviews don't do the place justice - my best advice would be to steer clear if you like good wings, or try your luck if you are up for a Russian roulette sort of meal..... good luck .... and never again....", "I used to like this place but the last several times the wings were tough as hell..\nI think they are made earlier then reheated..At least 3 times now the wings were like chewing shoe leather..Boy they went downhill...!!", "Some of my favorite wings in town. They offer flavors mild, medium, hot, BBQ, and honey mustard. I've only tried mild and hot, the hot being my absolute favorite. The hot flavor is actually hot (as in spicy) yet doesn't over power the taste. The sauce can be on the vinegar-y side for some, but I don't mind it. I also like their fried mushrooms. The mushrooms inside the breading are juicy and have good taste to them. Family owned and service is always friendly.", "best buffalo hot wings!! they're super saucy and delicious ! great customer service too", "Love, love, love them! Come - a - window - please .... thank you, yes I will! Only go with the the hot though and try the Buffalo fries. Mmmmm!", "You know, there is nothing worse than going back to a place you like and finding out it just sucks, I mean hoover status! Wings use to be good. My recent visit I encountered flies all over the rear of building smelled like something died! I just grossed out even still, I decided to give them a chance. Wings were soggy tasted old not fresh. A bit of my heart has been lost I guess back to the chain wings." ]

[ "Not as cute or quaint as people would have you believe. Small, spaceless to navigate inside, yes. Nothing spectacularly attractive about the Cubby Hole, just a step up from joints like Friendly's and the sort. It's got the local flavor: bland, small-minded. In a place that seats something ridiculous like ten or thirteen people, we managed to be seated awkwardly right next to some less-than-desirable classmates. This is not the charming, hidden little shop to sit around for coffee and chit chat. It's right on Main Street. I believe I had the egg salad sandwich when I was here? Doesn't matter. It wasn't necessary to remember, cos I won't bother going back.\n\nhttp://www.moorestownmenus.com/menus/cubbyhole.htm", "New Owner!\n\nLooks like Cubby Hole changed hands, great coffee, great sandwiches, friendly service.

Definitely check this place out.", "On the smiley-face side, they're serving One Village Coffee, that Philly based micro-roasters with nice single origin beans that go head to head with Stumptown, La Columbe and Counter Culture. Without the Starbucks burnt taste, these beans are at times buttery, at times citrusy, but always interesting. On the toss-up side, service can be really friendly, but sometimes too entrenched in other customers (maybe other staff?) to give you much attention. On the sad faced side, the coffee can sit a little too long in the thermal containers and the coffee can trend towards the tepid side. Of course, I discovered this as I drove away. Had I caught it in the shop, I'm sure they would have made a fresh pot. No matter, This is as good as it gets in this area, so I'll be back.", "Needing to run an errand in Moorestown during my lunch break, I figured I would pickup lunch while in town, too. I did a quick Google search before leaving the office (no Yelp access at work) and came across The Cubby Hole. Looked like a pretty good lunch spot, so to The Cubby Hole I went.\n \nThe café is small, but quaint, in typical Moorestown fashion. The girl behind the counter handed me a menu and also directed me to their specials board. I felt that their menu was a little lacking in vegetarian selections. The only cold sandwich option was egg salad (which they were out of today), and the hot selections were basically variations of grilled cheese. No vegetarian selections on the specials board either. I could have gone for like a grilled veggie Panini. \n\nNo worries, though. I ordered a mozzarella, tomato, and balsamic Panini. I went to run my errand while I waited for my lunch to be prepared. I also had to stop at an ATM because I learned when I got there that they take CASH ONLY. I ran my errand, picked up my lunch, and went back to the office. \n\nBy the time I got back to the office, my Panini was still warm, and was really good. The balsamic vinegar gave it a nice flavor, and the tomatoes were fresh. The Panini was grilled just perfectly.\n\nI give The Cubby Hole 3 stars, A-OK. They definitely lose a star for being cash only. I never carry cash. Also, I'd like to see a more extensive menu for vegetarians.

When ordering margaritas, our waitress didn't know what Hornitos tequila was (a very popular brand) and I had to go to the computer where they place the orders and show her which tequila we wanted in our pitcher. The margaritas were so weak we had to order a few extra shots to dump in the pitcher just to give it some taste. I ordered the chicken quesadilla which was completely smothered in cheese and my wife had the chicken fajita salad which was ok after they initially brought out the wrong dish. After getting the check we then learned that we were overcharged! Needless to say, we wont be going back to Hacienda", "I have been going to this place since it first opened in Reno. So my review of this particular restaurant is not based upon one single visit. In fact I would have to be honest and say I have actually been here probably 50 times over the years.\n\nThe chips and salsa are very good and the vegetarian burrito (called the calabasa) is delicious. The environment is pretty comfortable and I have had mostly good service here. The biggest complaint my friends have is that the rice leaves something to be desired.\n\nAll in all I think it's a perfectly good place to eat. So try it!\n\n*****************UPDATE******************\n\nThe other day my friend and I were sitting at work thinking about how much we felt like eating burritos.. So being less than 5 miles from Hacienda I thought we should go there! Sounds good right? Yeah.. so anyway it was Sunday and we didn't get out of work until 4pm so my friend suggested we call them and find out when they switch from the lunch menu to the dinner menu. Why pay 3 dollars more for the same thing? So I make the phone call and a man answers, I asked him specifically when they switched over the menu, he told me 5:30 or 6pm. I said, \"Even on Sundays?\" He said, \"Yes.\" \n\nSo 4 o clock rolls around and my friend and I drive over to Hacienda. We arrived not even 10 min after 4pm. No one greets us.. employees just walk past and try to ignore us... finally after standing there for about 5 min a hostess comes up. I ask her to make sure she is grabbing lunch menus and she said it was already the dinner menu. I proceeded to tell her about the phone call and so she grabs the owner. Now, having been to this place no less than 50 times in the past 8 or so years.. I have seen this man many times. I told him what was happening and he said, \"The lunch menu changes at 4pm.\" It was not even 15 min after and one of his employees told me it was at least until 5:30. What a jerk!!!!!!!\nI will never go there again.", "Poor Hacienda! I really think it deserves better ratings that what is has been getting! Yes, there are things that I would change, but nothing that would turn me away from ever going there again. \nI have always eaten in the bar area, so maybe that's what is making a difference? The service is always quick there, the food comes super fast, and they make sure everything is ok and ask if you want drink refills. \nThe bar is a great area to watch any sports that are on, because the booth face a huge TV. Also, they have a large area on the side of the bar that would excellent for LARGE parties.\nI would like a little bit more variety on the menu, however. For example, they don't have just beef enchiladas in red sauce. Why not? And I've been trying to find a Mexican restaurant that has California enchiladas (chicken enchiladas with green sauce), but haven't one yet.\nI've never had a bad experience here, and I think Hacienda deserves a second chance!", "Every time after a long day of snowboarding, we love coming to Hacienda. They have delicious Mexican cuisine with fresh chips and salsa, and great options for vegetarians as well. I have also tried chicken and fish dishes, both superb. Hacienda is almost always busy in the evening, but the servers are all very friendly and deliver food quickly. The guava margaritas are also tasty, and I've saved the best for last. The Deep Fried Ice Cream is some of the BEST I've ever had. Hacienda gets my stamp of approval!", "Haciendas to me was a great restaurant. I'm from Texas and like good mexican food. I finally found a place that measures up to what I like back home. The chips and salsa is great.(most places out west can't make salsa to save their lives). The tea was good and strong, and they serve sweet & lo. I had cheese enchiladas and the whole meal was fantastic, it's about time the rice didn't taste like it was out of a tv dinner. Salad was plentiful and fresh. The service there was prompt and friendly.", "Hacienda is conveniently located near my home, so I have tried it several times. Each meal I've had there has been a disappointment. The spanish rice is very bland. Most of the entrees are also bland and nearly tasteless. This cannot be cured by a dash of hot sauce. Rather, the food is inherently mediocre. Perhaps they have \"Americanized\" the food beyond any recognition of authentic Mexican cuisine. All that said, if you just want to meet friends for chips & salsa and have a beer, the bar area is fine.", "I always passed by this place but never bothered to try. I don't know why, but it happens. But finally, I was here yesterday for lunch with my buddy and we ordered seafood something out of the lunch menu they had. I usually make someone else order for me since I hate choosing what to eat and that was what my buddy picked for me. It was actually quite good. Chips & salsa was yummy too.\n\nI think this place is more for beer, chips, and light lunch. I don't think I would come for a dinner, but I liked it as a lunch place or a bar possibly.", "The food here is edible, but not in any way inspired. This is basic Anglo \"Mexican\" food; I'll eat it if I'm hungry and we're right there, but wouldn't go out of my way to get it. There are little storefronts in several places in Reno that serve cheaper and *much* better Mexican food.", "Had dinner at the bar on Friday, needed to watch the end of a tournament game! Salsa and chips were fresh. I had two tacos, beans and rice. The chicken taco I would not order again, chicken seemed to be just sliced up chicken breast without any seasonings what so ever. The shredded beef was good and I'd order it again. The beans were on the dry side and the rice was decent. My wife had and enchilada and a tamale, she enjoyed her dinner included the beans and rice, a preference I guess. \n\nThe service was great and our waitress was very pleasant. Enjoyed all the flat screens in the bar area as well. Will go again but still looking for the mexican restaurant in Reno that will want me going back for more.", "The food is always good and the environment is comfortable. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants some good mexican food with a nice clean environment. The drinks are also good. The prices are a little bit higher then some places around town, but the cost is well worth it." ]

[ "Beer! Glorious beer! Wide variety and well made.\n\nMaybe I'm unlucky, but every time I've been inside the place is filled with douchebags. Or maybe I'm just a douchbag in denial. \n\nBirds of a feather and all that.\n\nThey also have food. It looks good.", "The location of this place is what keeps it busy every single weekend. It's right in the midst of all the riverwalk action and so therefore I find myself going there all the damn time! \nI order wine when I go there now because I don't think their brews leave much to be desired and their cocktails are terrible!\nThe food is hit or miss.. The Southwest Caesar salad is quite possibly the worst salad I have ever eaten.. The nachos are boring and they don't even have a real salsa to go with them... The pasilla chicken sandwich is not bad and their french fries are standard but tasty.\nI don't know if I have ever had good service in this place. Which is sort of understandable because of how busy it is.. but seriously, just hire more servers!!\nWhen I go downtown.. I do the riverwalk thing and therefore end up here.. But I really wish something way better would take it's place.", "This is the 3rd time I've been here. The prices are decent and the food is reflective of the price. The carrot ginger bisque is good. This time I split the cheeseburger and it totally hit the spot. It's also been probably 6 months since I've had a burger so that might have had something to do with it.\n\nOne person in our party had the spinach salad, which he liked. Another had the chicken tacos and liked those. My martini was made well and the oatmeal stout was pretty tasty.\n\nThe service here is only ok. Nothing explicitly wrong with the service, but don't expect warm & fuzzies. A nice plus - we've never had to wait for a table the times we've been here, even though there's usually a decent size crowd each time.", "GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO THE CASINOS!!\n\nAfter a horrible experience at the Brew Brothers at El Dorado, I'm very happy that the Front Desk Manager at Harrahs pointed this place out to me! \n\nFirst off, I love the location. It's amazing what a difference a block will make. On Virginia Street, you have to trip over bums and weird guys shouting at the top of their lungs some unintelligeable comment. Go one block west to Sierra Street and a totally different story!! I saw younger people, professionals, and people just out on the town. Not one vagrant to be found. The Silver Peak Tap Room has a great urban atmosphere minus all the negatives. \n\nThe beer was something else! Their selection was incredible! I ordered a sampler and they brought about 12 different types of beers to my table! All of them were great!! The food was pretty good, big portions, and the price was very reasonable as well. \n\nThe thing that made the difference for me however was the great service! The waitress was very attentive, friendly, but not too nosy or pushy. There was a very relaxed environment inside, everyone was friendly, and overall I had a great time. \n\nBrew Brothers loss was Silver Peaks gain! I definitely recommend anyone who finds themselves in Reno and doesn't want to trip over vagrants or swim through a cloud of smoke, to give Silver Peaks a shot!!!", "The beer is glorious, as one reviewer said. I tried the sampler once of all the house brew, and I'd highly recommend doing so if you are indecisive as I am or can just settle for one. They give you close to a dozen different kinds (2~3 oz. ea.), so share with your friends unless you plan on keeping it as your drink for the night. If you want to order a full pint later, you'll be too full.\n\nThe pork tenderloin is simply delectable! They used to have fruit and cheese plate that was great appetizer paired with beer and wine, but they went away. That was a sad day. The nachos are great - big enough to share with friends. I haven't had anything that was subpar or disappointing yet.\n\nThis is one of the best brewery / bar in town, and with the prime location, it is always busy on weekends. If you want chill atmosphere and the best service, try to avoid Fri. and Sat., but I don't mind the crowd too much. It just goes to prove their quality.", "First off, there was a minor problem because I seated myself at an outdoor table instead of waiting to be seated. This could be avoided with simple signs: \"Please Wait to be Seated.\" \nI stopped by here after a movie while I was killing time waiting for my car to get repaired. I ordered a bowl of wild mushroom soup and a beer, a red ale I believe. The beer was okay. Better than Budweiser but nothing fantastic. The soup was terrible. It didn't really have any flavor and was overwhelmed by the grated dry cheese they put in it. And the aftertaste was a like mild vomit. I couldn't eat it. The waiter was nice enough to offer to let me try their other soup, but I'm not a big leek fan. I got charged for the bowl.\nI'd like it if someone else tried a cup of the wild mushroom soup some time to see if they get that vomit aftertaste with it.", "I will keep this simple because this place is simply great.\n\nThe wait staff is great, the management is great, the food is great, the beer is pretty good (I brew my own so I am pretty picky) and the atmosphere is great. Whether you are sitting outside or inside all the seats give you a good view for either visiting with friends or just people watching.\n\nI have had a lot of their meals but usually prefer to order a couple of aps since they are always so interesting. They change their menu constantly so don't get your heart set on something you had before...but rest assure that whatever new item you get will be great.", "I tend to avoid the Silver Peak because of the crowds of downtown party people that always seem to fill and surround the place, but really, they are a solid restaurant. The food is tasty and reasonably priced, and I've never had bad service. The best thing about Silver Peak, though, is its proximity to the River Walk and movie theater, making it an awesome date spot (thus the crowds?). I just tried the lamb burger this weekend, which was really unusual and delicious! They used to have a tasty little pulled pork sandwich, but sadly, it was taken off the menu. Actually, they revise their menu fairly often, which sucks when you lose things you like, but is also great because it changes things up. Well worth a visit if you are downtown.", "i had the best bloody mary in my life here, it cheap and the food is decent, its kind of a college hangout, and it cany get pretty loud but thats what i love about this place", "They are mainstreaming the menu at this place, more and more, which sometimes is not so bad. For example, instead of this sweet, Asian-inspired wings they used to sport, it is now your basic, typical fried \"Buffalo\" style. Am I complaining, not really, cuz even though I liked the other version, I'm a friggin' sucka, for a good buffalo wing, and this wasn't bad.\n\nAlso they rock a pretty decent T-bone steak for about 17 bucks, if you wanna venture out of the casino dining world. It came with grilled asparagus (YUM!) and cold, limp shoestring fries (NOT so yum). I'm not quite sure how you can manage to make super-thin fries not crisp, but they did it. No big though, savory steak and some grilled veggies is all good for me.\n\nAnd their Red Ale is STILL some good sh*t, the kind where I compare all red ales to. And to be able to use it to wash down that grubbin' steak and buffalo wing appetizer, Bomb, simply the Bomb." ]

[ "This is a virtual 5 star review, but in reality I'm only giving it 3 until it works out the kinks. \n\nTHE GOOD: The Dungeness Crabs! A full D. Crab close to 2lbs (last night) that left me STUFFED to this morning. My girlfriend and I have talked about it 3 times since getting up! At only $14.00 it was a steal! I'll also say everyone else's food looked damn good too.\n\nAlso the service. It did take a bit to get our waitress, but once the ball was rolling everything was great. They gave me a free beer to apologize for the long wait (in actuality it was probably to make up for them bringing me the wrong beer in the first place, whatev...) AND offered to get us new hot fires half way through our meal! Who does that? \n\nTHE BAD: TURN THAT FUCKING MUSIC DOWN!!!!! This place is a pub (well more on that in a sec.) but they have a ton of food business and even a steak shop, that was hopping late into the night, attached. BUT THEY WERE BLARING THE MUSIC LIKE IT WAS SOME SOUTH ST. MEAT MARKET! I can't stress enough, it wasn't just loud, but insanely loud! Everyone was having to yell at each other and read lips, including servers to customers. We complained and for a hot minute the guy turned it down, but 20 minutes later his jam came on and up it went. Also, the A/C seemed to be an issue with definite pockets of oven like heat zones that are battled by near arctic blasts over other areas, namely our table. As best as I could tell the music and a/c are not evenly dispersed throughout the place so one area is hot and quiet and the other is cold and loud, no middle ground. This will not stop me from going back, the crabs where that good. \n\nTHE UGLY: The bar is set up jenky. I don't mean the physical bar, that's fine with lots ( I mean LOTS) of flat screens everywhere. But the liquor they carry is odd. Some top shelf brands of one thing, then rock gut brands of another. They only offer Bud, Bud Lt. Miller Lite, and Yuengling on tap (and had tapped the wrong keg for the Yuengling and I got one of the two Lites to start) So go with bottled, it'll be colder too. \n\nIn short, the problems are minor and will probably be smoothed out in time. The upside is huge, with great food and good people...There is a new star in this often neglected corner of the NE, and that's a huge plus!", "When we walked in, my initial thought was - this was a winner. Not only did they serve Dungeness crabs, but Johnny Cash was pumping through the place! But then little problems began to surface:\n\n- For starters, there were definite temperature issues. It was hot outside and the air conditioning was having trouble keeping the place consistently cooled. \n- The waitress took a while to greet us though once she finally did, she was attentive and sweet. \n- The music was LOUD. The mix was great but the bass was bumpin so hard I felt like I was eating in a nightclub. Not appropriate for a restaurant/neighborhood bar.\n- NO BOURBON! Not a single bourbon behind the bar. \n\nBut the food was awesome and as far as I'm concerned, that's what really matters. The crabs were perfectly cooked and they served more than I could eat - for only $13.95! And the side of fries was massive and perfectly cooked as well. My only issue with the food was they did not provide a wet nap for clean up, just an itty bitty lemon wedge which was pretty much useless.\n\nSince they have only been open for a week or two, I have high hope that things will improve and this will become a 5 star spot!", "We stopped back this past weekend and it seems the previous issues were all magically addressed! The music was much quieter and was more appropriate for dining, the temperature was consistently cool, and they served wet naps with the crabs! \n\nAnd the crabs, I don't know if I was extra hungry but they were extra good!! This place is definitely a winner.", "Nothing makes me happier than being able to add an extra star on Chuck's Alibi. I like this place so much, that despite my moving about 30 minutes away I decided half way through my meal that I'll be making the trip back often! \n\nAs I mentioned in my last review, all the negatives couldn't keep me away from the positively great crabs. So with a bit of mental preparation we stopped by Saturday night and were pleasantly surprised to find EVERY ONE of our previous issues had been addressed! We arrived toward the end of what I would call dinner hours (they serve late into the evening though) and the ambiance was very pleasant. Frank Sinatra serenaded us at a ear friendly volume as we went to town on our Dungenous crabs. Late in our meal the clock did click passed 9 and the music got a tad louder and went to typical bar music, but still no where near the ear splitting level of before. In fact, I didn't see the guy that was running things on our last visit, and this time the manager in charge (an obvious seasoned veteran of the service industry, and an obvious positive influence on the business) made a point to go around to all the tables to check on things. The temperature problems seemed to be worked out too. \n\nIf you haven't been, do yourself a favor and give them a try. Also, they have their own private parking lot with free valet, so don't stress about parking.", "Chuck's has one of the best cheesesteaks I have ever eaten. I estimate that I have been over 30 places within Philly that sells cheesesteaks. In fact it is #1 on my list slightly before John's Roast Pork in South Philly.\n\nAnyway, I visited this place for the second time during lunch. My coworker and I arrived for lunch around 11:45 am. After we ate, we sat momentarily digesting our food when a call came on my cell phone. It was approximately 12:15 pm. Then suddenly, without warning, I hear very loud music playing from the jukebox. I found this to be extremely distracting, rude, discourteous, especially when people are trying to relax and enjoy their lunch. \n\nI'm sure the staff can find other ways to entertain themselves. The staff should have at least asked the patrons if they would like to hear loud music while they are enjoying lunch. I find it hard to find individuals and businesses in Philly who conduct themselves with class. \n\nVery poor experience although they sell excellent cheesesteaks and fries. Next time I return (if I do), I will have to politely ask that if there is music played, that it be played at a reasonable volume or not played at all. If they stammer or refuse, I will leave and never return. I still can't believe that the restaurant and its staff would be so stupid as to think it's appropriate to blast music during lunch. Stay classy Philly!", "I visited here last week and everything was perfect. They still serve excellent cheese steaks and I was afforded great service. I have recommended this establishment as a potential site for my work's Christmas party.", "Its kinda crazy. I've passed by Chuck's a bunch of times, and always thought to myself, whenever we feel like going out for dinner, but can never decide where, let's try this place. I'm not so sure I'm glad we did.\n\nWe arrived on a Friday night, where parking was completely concealed. They mention on their menus that they have a free valet service, to which would have been helpful, considering we parked a couple blocks away. Speaking of parking, the homes surrounding Chuck's must not appreciate their business, as while we were walking to our car, I could hear two urban hillbillies complaining about how we took up two spots in front of their house.\n\nSo, we actually get into Chuck's, and we approach a friendly guy and tell him we'd like a table. He responds by saying 'You can sit anywhere you want, anywhere that's available', which is kinda confusing, and leaves you staring people down who have their disheveled napkins on the their plates in front of them. It was a busy Friday night with the music being played hard. \n\nIts busy, and I get that our waitress is a bit stressed, so I'm not going to knock the service. She was nice and friendly and did the bare essentials. \n\nHad I known that this was a primarily a seafood joint, I don't think I would have gone, but it certainly wasn't a disappointment for my wife. I ordered Chuck's Famous Alibi burger and she had the butterfly shrimp.\n\nThe burger was okay, nothing fabulous or famous about it, and priced decently, I suppose, at about 6.95. The shrimp, however, were not as colossal as promised, and at 13.95 for 6, seemed to be a bit high. I was completely floored when we were charged 8.00 for my wife's rum and coke. \n\nAfter all, I don't think I'll be back to Chuck's, and I'm kinda sorry that we went there in the first place. I usually like to patronize mom and pop shops in and around my neighborhood, however, Chuck's is one alibi, I won't be using.", "I went there when they first open, food was good and at reasonable prices. Maybe the 3rd time I was there, I wasn't sure if they were short on staff but it took them 30minutes to get to us. Of course, we decided to leave after waiting so long; after that time the place just totally turned me off and I haven't gone there since.\n\nEat in: awful\nBar: Good\nFood: Delicious\nArea: Not bad, a lot of traffic since it's right in intersection\nI like the place, just hope you don't pick a rotten day to go where the staff is lounging around haha.", "This place sucks. The food is average at best, and the service is lousy. Want to eat a seafood dinner with plastic utensils? Go ahead, enjoy. Do you want to listen to unbearably loud hip hop music while you eat? Enjoy that, too.\n\nThis was our second time at Chuck's and it was actually worse than our first visit. We went to meet some friends who were going to be there watching the Flyers game. I had heard from friends that the cheesesteaks were good, so I decided to try one.\n\nI ordered a mushroom cheesesteak, and instead I got a chicken cheesesteak. Ok, one screw up is an honest mistake, but when the waitress brought out the second steak, it had no cheese on it. How can you have CHEESESTEAK without any cheese? On the third attempt, she finally got my order right, but the sandwich was average at best. The meat was dry and the mushrooms looked like they came out of a can. It was edible, but I will definitely NOT be going there for another cheesesteak. \n\nMy girl ordered mussels. The first time they came out, they were literally smothered in garlic. It was overpowering, and not in a good way. We both LIKE garlic, but this was inedible. You couldn't taste the mussels at all. \n\nWe sent it back, and the waitress brought another order of mussels in 5 minutes. My girl and I were both a little suspicious that they just scraped off the garlic and brought out the same dish, but the waitress said no, they gave us another customer's order. \n\nWe still couldn't figure out what she meant, but we thought that maybe someone had ordered the first dish with extra garlic and it found it's way to our table by mistake. No, the waitress said that was how they normally fix them. Huh? \n\nWhile it only took 5 minutes to replace the mussels, it took three times longer to get me another cheesesteak, and just as long to get the third one after the second one was messed up, too. \n\nBy the way, while the substandard food was replaced, no one offered to adjust the check, and the bartender (we were eating at the bar) still wanted me to pay $2 every time she refilled my diet coke. Considering the circumstances, I told her we should at least get free refills on our soft drinks for the rest of the evening. A few ounces of soda seem like a small price to keep a customer happy after you've made three separate mistakes on the food. She said she would have to ask the manager, and after doing so, she did refill our soft drinks for free the rest of the evening. \n\nThe shame of it is, the mussels, when they weren't drowning in garlic, were actually quite tasty. But I see no reason to go back again after the repeated mistakes, and the other things (plastic silverware, much too loud music, and zero interest on the part of management (until I ASKED for a concession on the drinks, that is). Chuck's is within walking distance from my house, but I will be getting in the car and driving somewhere else the next time I want to have a decent dinner.", "After being a go-go bar during the mid to late 1960's (The Wedge), it became Chuck's Alibi. It was a great neighborhood place during its early years. But during the years since, it has had many names and many owners. (Chuck has maintained ownership of the buildings). After being closed up for a long period, the joint has reopened again as \"Chuck's Alibi\", but again this business has another new owner. The food seems to be overpriced, not very good at best, and is served on disposable plates with plastic utensils. (Just like Wendy's around the corner). And be prepared for a long wait! The drinks are good but the prices are rediculousley high! $8.00 for a rum and coke? This is not center city. This is a neighborhood bar, although very few neighborhood people come here anymore. The music is very, very loud and it is actually obnoxious. Too much Rap and Hip-Hop. The live music is gone. No parking to speak of. A little lot tucked away in the back. They claim to have valet parking although the night I was there they had just fired the attendant. And there is a huge turnover of employees. This joint is for you If you like public transportation, poor service, high prices, loud music and having dinner like your picnicing at the park. As for me, I would rather picnic at the park. It's quieter and cheaper!" ]

With exposed brick, and bridges the restaurant decor might fool you into thinking you're in a Starr restaurant. \n\nThe menu is the same as all of the other Marathon Grills. In my opinion, for the price the food is good. In fact, the food is just good. I rarely have a problem with anything I order. The standard fare is made up of salads, sandwiches, breakfast all day, and smoothies. \n\nNow, my biggest problem with this location is that the service was SLOW. But that might be a result of just opening.", "UPDATE:\n\nI have removed 3 stars from my original review. Came here again a few weeks ago, with family and friends I had from out of town. Service was HORRIBLE.

After many requests and promises that we would be moved. We weren't moved for another 45 minutes. While parties of 2 were being seated in these huge booths. Families, and larger parties were all seated in little tables, that were way too crowded together. EVERYONE was complaining. This is the hostess fault, and I have heard from a lot of people that they also had problems with the hostess at other Marathon locations. [ Maybe they just have bad judgement on hiring?]\n\n-after waiting well over an HOUR for our food, the waitress finally came back to tell us that the computers were down and that was the cause to the delay. Ok help me understand this. The kitchen stood around for an HOUR during the LUNCH RUSH, with NO orders, and no one checked if something was wrong? FINALLY our food came out, my brother had the Chicken sandwich. I had the tuna salad, on a toasted baguette w/ provolone, Bellinda had the chicken toes.

The decor is sharp, and the tables upstairs have a couch-type seating option that seats two people on each side of the table. For large groups, you can eat a a longer sized table that will seat up to 12 people--which is great if you are with 5 or 6 people. \n\nThe menu is the same as the other restaurants--those of you who have eaten at a Marathon before know that you have a lot of options to choose from. Seriously, they have one whole page of their menu dedicated to salad options. I think it's pretty much impossible to not find something here that you like. \n\nFor dinner, there are a few options where you can get an appetizer, entree and dessert for $20. The weekend brunch also offers a good selection, and you can get a table much more quickly than going to some of the more popular brunch places in South Philly and Northern Liberties.", "I've never had a bad experience at any Marathon Grill. I tend to go for the sandwiches, which have always been good. Their beer list has a few odd-balls that you won't find at your run-of-the-mill chain restaurant. The service is generally good.

I'd recomend going there any time for a quick bite that isn't too expensive.", "This marathon has a wonderful ambiance. It is two floors and very spacious.

We had to ASK HIM to refund us for all the items he never brought out and all he could say was they dont give partial refunds. After NEGOTIATING he agreed to refund us for everything except the hot wings...except he should have only charged us for the pizza considering that was the ONLY thing that came out and on time. When the \"hot wings\" did finally come out they were plain wings with a packet of hot sauce.

This review is long overdue but came here on a not very busy night and had HORRIBLE service. Actually, horrible doesn't even come close to describing it but this place isn't worth the extra brain power it would take for me to truly describe the bad experience I had here. Bartender was not attentive at all and ignored me after I ordered my drink. He went to the other side of the bar and then never came back...and never gave me my drink...and there were maybe only 5 other people there. Not to mention their food is subpar to say the least. You're better off buying food off the street from the woman making corn and sausage...at least she has decent customer service.", "Went there last night for the first time ever, the bartender was extremely helpful. I ordered the wings, definitely in my top 3 wing spots. I've traveled all over and eaten wings religiously. The only place I know that would trump their wings is Atkins park in atlanta, they deep fry them in duck fat though. Pizza looked questionable. Im going to go back soon and try their burritos.", "I literally came here to grab a slice of pizza while we were on Frenchmen st. It was the only place that was quick fast and didn't have a wait. Pizza was just ok. Something quick and greasy for while we were out drinking.", "Favela Chic is fantastic. We live in Jersey City (just outside of NYC) and the pizza is just as good (if not better than) what we get in New York City--the crust is well-seasoned and not too think nor thin. The food is all homemade by a Brazilian couple and it's clear they put a lot of time and effort into making the cuisine special. It's the perfect place to stumble into after you take in the live music scene. Highly recommend!", "Food was ok. Our bartender was a sweetheart but I was a little taken back by the fact that the owner or MOD came down during our meal to reprimand her for changing the music that was playing. Extremely unprofessional and tacky to yell at employees in front of customers. Other than that, it's just a hole in the wall with mediocre, quick food. Not the worst place, just don't request to change the music.", "Really really really awful place. Very inauthentic and gross. Mushy everything, cold, and tasteless. The hot sauce is not at all what you expect. Not for Mexican food. It's almost like bootleg Taco Bell. The soda tasted funny too! They have 20oz plastic bottled sodas that taste like they've been on a shelf for YEARS. Asked for salsa verde and got some weird giant squishy onion and bell pepper thing. They do have BIG portions so I guess thats ok? I really haven't had such bad food in a long time. I could be drunk and not want to eat here lol. Go to dat dog instead!", "Favela Chic is an abolishment on Frenchman street. It's bad enough that they took the place of our beloved YUKI IZAKAYA which will live on in our hearts and memories forever (shout out to Suzi) BUT their attitude and vibe is purely RUDE, HEARTLESS AND UNCOOL. I went into the bathroom with a few friends to admire the Japanese anime wallpaper, the last Yuki memento still in the place and the waiter banged on the door screaming - GET OUT I KNOW WHAT YOU GIRLS ARE DOING! This is Frenchman street mister, YOU GET OUT. Down with Favela (not) Chic. Long live Yuki. Needs to come back asap. Reach out if you know how to make that happen." ]

(I guess maybe I should've asked for that to be done, but honestly, if you serve crabs, YOU DON'T SERVE THEM COLD!!!) I ate it, as I had a hankering for crabs,& it was OK, but the whole point of serving crabs is to serve them H-O-T, if I wanted to eat cold crab meat I could've gone to Costco & gotten a tub of Phillips jumbo lump. Maybe Saturday was an off night, & I have heard good things about their crabs, so I wanted to give them a shot, but I was NOT impressed @ all....\n\nGod, I miss Boncela's....." ]

LOL and the prices arent really bad at all i hope someone tries this place and let me know what you think...", "I've eaten here a few times, and I like it a lot (for being a chain restaurant). \n\nFirst, the good stuff: Service is always AWESOME. The kids working in there are just so happy to be there, it's frightening. And so knowledgeable about the menu and meat in general. Bravo. I almost feel like they may be a little overstaffed, but that's probably because they are new and just hired a million people to start out with. \n\nThe food is seriously delish, but if you don't like meat, seriously, you have no business here. I'm not a huge steak person, but I do okay with their steak tips dinner, which is very mushroomy and delicious. They also have amazingly good ribs, and the pulled pork is awesome. If clogged arteries are your thing, the cactus blossom is yum as well (think Chili's Awesome Blossom, or Outback's Bloomin' Onion - same exact thing). I think the best part is the bread they serve in the beginning, with the cinnamon-y butter. Dessert before dinner. SO GOOD! \n\nOn the downside, it's a little pricey. Comparable to Outback or Lonestar, I suppose. But it's steak, so that's to be expected. \n\nNow on to my major complaint - wait time for a table. There's always AT LEAST a two hour wait, unless you go at noon on a sunday when everyone's still in bed/at church. The first time we went, we called ahead and were told to show up in about 2 hours to get our table (when you do call ahead, you're supposed to show up 15 minutes prior to your number being called). Once we got there, we had to wait an additional HOUR and 15 minutes. They said the problem was that people weren't leaving, that they were lingering too long for them to efficiently turn their tables, but it was still annoying. While we waited, waitresses were running up and down the waiting rooms (there are two huge waiting rooms on either side of the entrance, so I guess they knew they'd have a problem while building it) with appetizers for us to pick at, so that was thoughtful (and another testament to my theory that they're actually overstaffed). \n\nSo, all in all, good chain restaurant as far as food and service. I just hope you can stand waiting. Don't even bother on a Friday or Saturday evening.", "Very good food, pricey but best steakhouse around! If you get take-out, check everything before leaving, its been 50-50 on them missing something, minor, but missing something.", "Definitely a nice Texas meat place. \n\nFirst off, the service here was amazing. Everyone was very friendly, knowledgeable and cheerful. The rolls they bake fresh are very delicious (although I didn't particularly care for the cinnamon flavored butter). They also have roasted peanuts at every table (and also two very large barrel-fulls of the roasted peanuts at the entrance/waiting area). My parents really loved the peanuts and couldn't stop eating them.\n\nThe price was really quite reasonable since most of the dishes come with two sides. We ordered a full rack of ribs and side orders of mashed potatoes and steak fries. The ribs were literally falling-off-the-bone delicious. The flavor and texture of the meat and BBQ sauce was among the best I've had in a while. The quantity of the mashed potatoes was a bit disappointing since the size was the equivalent of a large spoonful in a small dish. Also, the steak fries were only average, although they were well seasoned. It would have been much better if it little was a little more crispy on the outside. \n\nWe also ordered the grilled salmon with a side of Caesar salad and a sweet potato. The salad was very fresh and well flavored. The croutons were super yummy, although it didn't feel like they gave us enough (either that or they were just that good). The sweet potato was also very well steamed and flavorful. The only complaint is that the salmon smelled... well... fishy (not in a good way). The taste was also a little off... and definitely did not mix well with the ribs. We ended up eating only a few bits of the salmon, and thought we'd let the manager know about the potential problem with the freshness of the fish.\n\nWe asked the server if we could speak to the manager (and she immediately went to get him for us). We explained the problem and the manager immediately offered to get us another dish or to take the grilled salmon off our bill. I was very impressed with the professionalism of his manner and actions and would definitely go back (although I would probably still avoid ordering the salmon).\n\nI strongly recommend going to this place for the ribs (and the freshly cut steaks seemed yummy too!).", "Ok... so the second time was... not so much the charm. I am dropping my review by half a star, but have placed it as 3 stars to reflect the change. \n\nGot the ribs again this time. Was not as tender everywhere, unlike last time, but about 1/3rd of the ribs were still super tender while the rest were just mediocre. That being said, the BBQ sauce is still delicious.\n\nWe avoided the salmon this time (given what happened last time I visited) and instead ordered a prime rib (medium rare) and a NY strip steak. The server had told us that Texas Roadhouse was FAMOUS for its steaks, cut fresh everyday. The prime rib was very tender, although lacking in that strong meat flavor normally associated with slow-cooked food. Sadly, the Au Jus that came with it had a STRONG vegetable flavor and no meat flavors at all, a disappointing complement to what would have been a great prime rib.\n\nThe steak was the worst disappointment. We ordered it medium rare and it came out medium well. The server was no where to be found, and only stopped by after about 1/2 the steak had been cut and shared. Wasn't worth the trouble at that point, but a big disappointment given the hype about the steak when we arrived. \n\nOverall, still a good place for going out, but I will just have to keep trying different menu items until I find one that is consistently good.", "While I was visiting Atlantic City we drove here for steak. It was a quiet Tuesday night and worth driving 30 miles away from the Casino buffets. Our service was great and all the steaks were cooked perfectly.

Worth Ribeye. It was alright I guess, it wasn't as seasoned as I feel steaks should be. My dad got the ribs which were also so-so.\n\nOn a brighter note, the bread they served was pretty good! \n\nLastly, I know this happens everywhere at some point....but the ribs had a long piece of hair on it. We were able to get that taken care of, but it's just the fact that we had to be the ones to experience that...\n\nIt's not terrible, but I'm just personally not crazy about the chain steakhouse deal.", "YUMMO!! :)\nStarted with one of those Cactus Blossom things, the sauce was excellent, onion pieces nice and crispy.\nI got the 8oz.

[ "So happy to have TBBC open a location in Westchase! We really like their location in Ybor, but that is a hike from Pinellas. Went there for opening night last night and the service/quality was great. I've heard about how opening night for a restaurant can be hit or miss, and last night was definitely a hit for us. The service was very attentive with numerous wait staff milling about to see if we needed anything. The only misstep was there was a hold-up with our hummus and lebneh appetizer, but they more than made up for it by acknowledging the delay and then comping the app without us saying anything negative or complaining at all - that is service that goes above and beyond what I would expect, especially on opening night. \n\nAs a vegetarian, I wanted to get their steak and bacon chopped salad with their grilled Portobello mushroom subbed for the steak and bacon - once again, the service was great and they accommodated my substitution without any issues, which I greatly appreciated since I know something like that can be annoying for the kitchen. This chopped salad is one of my favorite salads - the combination of ingredients and the amount of dressing is just perfect. The only negative I can say about the salad is that it is absolutely HUGE. I'm a pretty big eater and I couldn't get through half of the salad, but thankfully the salad held up well enough leftover to be my lunch today. My wife's black bean burger was delicious and actually homemade (which is a rarity and they should definitely state that on the menu because I think most people just assume that veggie burgers at casual bars/restaurants are frozen premade burgers unless stated otherwise). \n\nThe TBBC beers are great of course and we really enjoyed our Old Elephant Foot and Porter. I wonder if they will have guest taps like how Cigar City features other beers in their tasting room as well. Overall, five stars for this place. We are so happy they are finally open and hope they have a lot of success!", "Excellent venue, excellent food and excellent service.

The Shepherds Pie was particularly good!\n\nThis place was VERY busy on a Tuesday night, but maybe that is because it has only been open two weeks? I imagine that will settle down.\n\nI think TBBC has a lot of potential and will become a well-known microbrewery.", "We were given an estimated wait time of 25-40 minutes by the hostess. There was no indoor waiting area so we stood outside for a few minutes in the summer heat before squeezing into some extra chairs in the hallway. After an hour had passed and we had yet to be seated, we decided to cut our losses and dine elsewhere. We were excited to try the beer and food, but didn't get that far. If you care to, prepare to wait for Christmas.", "Great beer just like the TBBC in Ybor. But the food needs some work, maybe it's because they are fairly new but the food was lacking. Two porter house orders from our table were sent back because they were at least two levels rare of the order, very rare. The Brie sticks were a tasty find, but the blue cheese burger lacked taste and was very dry. Ill probably be back but just for drinks or apps.", "Came here for my girlfriends dads birthday. I had previously come for the Bad Ass Beer Festival, and got to see the facility but was the first time I ate dinner there. The beer selection was good, and tasted fresh. I personally love IPAs so the old elephant foot was perfect. I believe everyone at the table got something different. Fish and chips is an excellent choice. I had the bomb burger, which I believe the menu has a typo. It states it has fried onion straws covered in pizza dough.. However the whole burger is covered in pizza dough. Different concept yet quite tasty. We got the Johnny's ale cheese dip which is a must!!!! Overall very nice spot with lots of TVs and great atmosphere. They also do mini samples of the beer before you make your selection, if you would like.", "Outstanding! Everything was outstanding! I've been a fan of this business for a long time, but I'm even more of a fan now with this second location practically in my damn back yard.\n\nNo matter what kinda beer you drink, they've got you covered. If they don't, ask about their seasonal options. If they have the tripel, GET IT! If they have the Summer Days, GET IT! Ask questions later.\n\nHungry? No problem. From pizza to burgers and pasta entrées, again they've got you covered. During this most recent trip, La Chica and I split the following and left STUFFED.\n\nAle Cheese Dip - Hands down the best beer cheese dip I've ever had. Lacked the awkward bitterness of most beer cheese dips. Just smooth and light, like an American lager. Comes with what seems like a whole damn loaf of bread.\n\nButcher Burger - Very, very good, but very, very busy! With 3 meats in the burger, it's a lot for my taste buds to take in. And then with all the toppings, forget about it. It should be called the sensory overload burger. And with a $14 price tag, I'd suggest sticking to one of their regular burgers.\n\nI saw someone order a calzone, and WTF? Who is eating that thing? It was the size of a small child.\n\nService was fantastic. Bathrooms were extremely clean, and they have a system in place that catches waste water, and they use it for irrigation. Being green makes green!\n\nWill definitely be returning, and sooner than later." ]

[ "My darling & I stumbled upon this intriguing new spot last night on our way to dinner in the bywater. We popped in for a quick drink and found the place packed on what we found out was opening night. We grabbed our drinks at the bar and chatted with a group of friends who were waiting on their dinner. I perused the menu and while it is limited, it offer an assortment of fresh, local dishes. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked and smelled delicious. The space is small, dimly lit and modern (reminded me a bit of Bar Tonique - which I love). We'll surely be back for dinner or brunch soon at which point I hope to give the place 5 stars. Check their website for hours.", "The restaurant's name translated means \"Being the only example of its kind; constituting a class of its own; unique.\" \n\nIt was gallery night, and we stopped in for appetizers before heading to Maurepas, which is right down the street. Everything was very fresh and good- we all just shared a salad and the ravioli because we were on the waiting list for Maurepas. Very cool and unique inside- the ceiling is covered in upside-down Solo cups, lots of odd lighting fixtures, and fun retro furniture. It was packed, and it was opening night. Despite this, the service was friendly and smooth. One of the owners came over and chatted with us while we waited. Just as the website says, he talked about how the menu would change constantly based on very fresh inventory. Very good vibe in a neighborhood exploding with creativity.", "Funky, comfortable, fresh. Everything we tasted was well done but I have to recommend the scallops with celery root puree and chocolate creme with chambord and strawberries (yum!) \n\nJust checked out today's menu and the new brunch menu (They change their menu frequently based on what looks good, local and fresh) and can't wait to go back!", "Suis Generis may well be the most unique restaurant in New Orleans - a tall order in a giant culinary town! There, you'll find a faux fireplace at every booth and a different chef every night, light streaming through a thousand red plastic cups and the owner spinning vinyl from his DJ roost, salt and pepper shakers mounted on Matchbox cars and popular rollover items from earlier in the week. And the food is, well, wonderfully unexpected. Suis G is the antithesis of a franchise. It's definitely a cool place to \"feed your soul.\"\n\nPs. I was recently there on a Saturday night. There were plenty of people, but I could still easily hear my friends, the waiter, and the music. Unlike most restaurants, the acoustics rock!", "This place is great! I've been here twice now in the past couple of weeks, and plan to go back soon. \n\nThe menu is a free-flowing, small plates, large plates structure. True to the statements on the website, there were several changes to the menu between my two visits. Last night as I came in, one of the friendly staff recommended the creamed corn topped with apple-smoked bacon. He later walked through with a box of ears of corn that he had obtained fresh and then roasted on a grill. The dish was delicious, spicy, and the bacon was nicely smoked.\n\nI ordered lamb on both of my visits. The lamb was prepared differently due to changes in the menu, but both times it was well-prepared, hearty and satisfying and carefully spiced. \n\nThe atmosphere is relaxed, warm, and artistically decorated.", "Great food. The stuffed dates were amongst the most delicious things I've ever eaten. Service was warm and friendly. We loved, loved, loved the decor which was kitschy-eclectic with an artsy thrift-store aesthetic. Awesome music. Our four-year-old daughter had a blast, but the vibe, while playful, is adult. I'm not sure I'd recommend this place for kids as a rule. On the other hand, if you're the kind of family that goes to art openings together, you'll love this.", "If I could give it less than one star I would. Bad food, poor service and dear god was it overpriced. This place, with it's phony bologna vibe (really, a dj is necessary?), is clearly run by people who have never run a restaurant. Do yourself a favor and stick to maurepas across the street. B", "The Food....\nI would give the food 5 stars without a doubt! The chef is using so many different & sometimes unlikely flavor combinations. Each bite has big bold flavor yet all of the items on the dish complement each other perfectly...mmmmmm....yummy! My mom & I tried the daily special which was smoked boar injected w/ garlic & basted in coconut & basil...I think....but what ever it was it was hands down deee-licious! The entree came w/ 4 nice sized pieces of boar, mashed acorn squash seasoned w/ a hint of Indian-influenced spice mixture & brussel sprouts braised w/ bacon. Each part of the meal had it's on distinctive flavor yet each paired perfectly w/ each other. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu! On a side note: I generally tend to steer clear of smoked meats as they are usually over-powering or have a slight chemical taste to them but this was not the case at all with this dish. To all the smoked meat haters, I highly recommend u give it another shot if this is still on the menu. \n\nThe Beverages...\nThis is the area that seems to have SO much potential but has not been embraced yet. There is a nice wine, beer and non-alcoholic selection such as teas, coffees, aloe Vera juice & coconut water to name a few. However I think this place screams for hand-made original cocktails! The waitress did offer homemade simple syrups such as ginger, blueberry & strawberry to add to any cocktail but her only suggestion was to add it to a margarita or another drink which is essentially a margarita but w/ rum instead of tequila. So it is a start but I'd love to see some fresh herbs, juices & fruits added to the cocktail list & recommendations to pair with each meal. Also the cocktails were served in these cheap plastic picnic disposable cups yet the ice water was serve in glass...it would be nice if they would switch that around. Then again they may never get rid of me if the cocktails are as yummy as the food :P\n\nThe Decor....\nI love this fun, funky, quirky & eclectic sense of style! I think the decor highly reflects the same energy that the chef brings to each dish. There are lots of unique uses of space such as a mock fireplace in a built in shelf next to a booth & the cup collage on the ceiling & the random barbie floating about here & there. However I was hoping for a little more coziness especially after seeing the pics on their website. I'm hoping they will continue to add more decor in the near future. But for now they are doing an incredible job & I can wait to try more items on the menu & see how & if they evolve. \n\nThe Atmosphere...\nIt was nice & airy & open w/ a slight minimalistic vibe. However the staff was very nice & unpretentious. I took my mom and we saw a wide range of customers from their 20s - 50s. Most seating is booth style but they are able to accommodate a fairly large party in bench section. They also had a great selection of background music & as we were leaving I couldn't tell if a DJ was setting up or if all the music was from the staff's personal vinyl collection....either way I'm backin it!", "Fresh, eclectic, relaxed.\n\nThe food is fantastic. The chef uses fresh ingredients and the menu changes depending on whatever is available. So, relying on reviews of specific dishes is not as relevant as is the style of cooking. It is all about the combination of flavors. For example, the ahi ceviche with watermelon and thai peppers was amazing. Manchego cheese on roasted pineapples with a sweet and hot (chipotle) syrup was also incredible. The seafood stew was made with a coconut milk base giving it a rich undercurrent to highlight the taste and textures of the fresh fish. Major consistent themes (at least on this night): bold flavors, pepper accents, Asian influences, local ingredients.\n\nThe decor is funky and eclectic. It may not be to everybody's taste, but it has a clear playful presence. If you go to the downstairs bathroom, you might not come out in time for dessert. I'll say no more.\n\nThe service is friendly and relaxed. Excellent beer and wine selection. \n\nCheck it out.", "Well, clearly several of the owners' friends have decided to take to Yelp to lead unsuspecting restaurant goers astray. Be sure to note, fellow Yelpers, anytime a positive review is that person's ONLY review.\n\nThis is by far the most contrived restaurant I have ever been to. I don't care how \"wacky\" or \"artistic\" your neighborhood is, you can't just slap cheap decorations together and call yourself \"hip\" or \"eclectic\" or whatever you fancy yourself as being. \n\nWorse than the decor, the food itself is contrived. Listen carefully: You do not put vanilla anywhere near scallops, let alone as a \"sauce.\" If you want to experiment, do it at home. Do not charge unsuspecting customers for that abomination. Also, how do you screw up broccoli? My broccoli was completely overseasoned to the point of being inedible. \n\nEven the restaurant's name is contrived. \"Sui generis\" is Latin for being unique to itself. \"Suis generis\" means absolutely nothing. I read somewhere that an \"s\" was added as a nod to the city's French heritage. That leaves us with a conjugated French verb for \"being\" that is out of place, and a Latin word that is out of place. It doesn't make any sense, and it's not creative. It's like when a comedian has to explain his jokes after no one laughs. \n\nYou cannot throw together a restaurant like this, be pretentious, and then get your friends to write sham reviews. No, no, no. That violates this city's proud culinary heritage in every way imaginable.\n\nBy the way the lone bright spot was the service, but because of everything mentioned above this needlessly pretentious, slapped-together restaurant gets 1 star." ]

[ "Discovered this place on my way to DD for a coolata. Unfortunately on my first go round they were closed. So I decided to get there a bit early. I ordered the picadillo, one of their specialties that change daily, with yellow rice and maduros (sweet plantains). For dessert- FLAN! I've had this dish at several other places often with it being too sweet. Everything about this dish was pleasing to my most important senses. It made me wish I had more when I was done with my plate. Next time I go back I think I will try the empanadas.\n\nThe environment was quaint with chairs and tables set up for eating in. There was no one there when I went in so the environment might be different during the day.", "Good for takeout...the seasonings are toned down for the average American taste. Portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. The hot bar changes daily, call ahead to make sure they have what you want that day.", "Really quite good if you want a home cooked hot lunch in a hurry. Meatballs were very good as was the yellow rice and the corn with onions and ham. Black bean soup also quite good. Only negative is limited menu but selection they had all looked great.", "I went there once and NEVER again. This is not authentic Spanish food. The rice tasted like Minute Rice. Not impressed at all.", "I've lived in Tampa my whole life and am very aware of our reputation for Cuban and \"Latin\" food. When this place opened in Lutz, I was skeptical, but the food is consistently great. Really good Cuban sandwich and my daughter loves the fish sandwich. We tried the caldo gallego (my father is Gallego) and it was quite good. It's a great neighborhood place. Staff have always been friendly and prompt. Great stop for lunch or to take out for dinner.", "My husband and I went there for lunch. The staff was very pleasant; however, I found the food to be average. The rice was rather tasteless, and even though the pork was very tender, it too needed more seasoning. I think they perhaps tone down the spice to suit the average American palate, but i would have preferred that the food be more authentic.", "I think an $ 8.51 lunch with either baked chicken & yellow rice, Cuban bananas or you can get the pork with onions was great.\nIt's family owned .\nIt's reasonable and very good ! I've eaten there many times and have never received a bad meal\nI recommend for it's family environment.\n\nGreat place to go !! Try it !", "Love this place, it's a casual Hispanic place with great family style food. I call it family style as I feel like I am eating at a Hispanic friend's house and their grandma is cooking. They have a bunch of fresh quick favorites in the steam table like roast pork and yellow rice or black beans and rice, but today I picked something I have had there before and loved, chicken fingers. I know crazy right? But it's the best and always fresh made. They make it like my grandma, fresh breaded and quick fried. That and a side of rice and nice big bowl of their amazing Spanish Bean soup/ garbanzo and I am in culinary heaven. This is my go to place for great comfort food. Cubans are pretty good here too. But I go there on the days when they have Spanish Bean soup and I would put theirs up against any of the good ones in Ybor City, yes it is that good, but sadly not on the menu every day. Call ahead, I do. Try it and they got ya!", "Small little Cuban cafe with great Cuban sandwiches. Cafe con leche with Cuban toast in the am Always a newspaper laying around too.", "Excellent food, and a very friendly staff. Plato Latino has become a North Tampa fixture over the past few years by sticking to that formula, and it works. I highly recommend the Cubanito sandwich, and their Cuban has recently beat out contenders from much more established Columbus Ave. and East Tampa establishments in competitions. That isn't a surprise.\n\nIt is a small, but nicely kept diner style establishment. Highly recommended." ]

[ "Staff is very friendly. Steak is tender. I recommend the kabobs. Friday & Saturday is a get there early night - Duh!", "For some reason going out for steaks can turn into a fiasco as everyone has their favorite steakhouse and quickly shoots down other opinions. We settled on Texas roadhouse as no-one had been to one lately. I usually don't like to review chain type places but this visit was exceptional. Strangely for Sunday night the place was pretty empty, we were immediately seated and the server quickly appeared to ask about drinks and appetizers. Drinks quickly appeared and the appetizer was not too far behind it. We happened to get the fried pickles(I honestly haven't met a fried pickle I didn't like) which appeared to be common sliced dills out of the jar breaded and fried. Not exactly what one may consider an award winner but were delicious non the less and a testament to their breading or brand of pickles they use . The server was VERY attentive and refills were brought promptly when your glass reached about 1/3. The food arrived and my steak was juicy and cooked EXACTLY as I had ordered. The flavor was exceptional.... no steak sauce for this piece of meat! Sides were very appetizing and I server appeared several time to check on us and offer dessert which I had to pass on. Considering steak prices today at the market, I got out for $20 for a 12oz Texas Rib-eye which was a steal in my book. It was a little cool when we arrived but someone adjusted the temp right after we got there and the dinner was comfortable. I will definitely go back to Texas Roadhouse for steaks again! Being a steakhouse I did not even look for veg options as I was too focused on large pieces of meat!", "Avoid this place if you can.\n\nMy family of 6 went here a few weeks ago, and the service was great! About the only complaint I have about this visit was that our ribs were absolutely burnt to a crisp. \n\nTonight, my parents and I wanted to give this place another go. After waiting about 10 minutes for a table for 3... and watching several big parties being seated... We were told it would be a 30 minute wait to get a table. \n\nMeh. There's just so many other great places to find BBQ, steaks, and ribs in and out of town other than this miserable place.", "I love Texas Roadhouse! The steaks are always reasonably priced and cooked well. The sides are always solid- love the baked potatoes. It's just a great, casual place to throw peanuts on the floor, eat some freshly baked bread and get a decent steak. The service is okay- not great, but generally reliable. I keep coming back, though, because the food is consistently of good quality and the prices are so good.", "I ordered cheese fries, no bacon. Friend ordered a steak medium rare.\n\nCheese fries showed up with bacon, steak showed up raw in the middle.\n\nAll I ordered was cheese fries as a note, so I got to wait about twice as long to eat and was already starving when I got there, the steak and potato was the only thing my friend ordered.\n\nSo, basically got to wait twice as long for each meal as should have, then had to wait to get tickets taken, eh... not a terrible experience, but the fries were not all that good.\n\nJust sort of seemed half-assed from the nearly empty peanut bucket, waiting on waters, waiting on food, waiting again on food to be made right, waiting for check, waiting for check to be picked up, and did I mention waiting?\n\nPlace was not busy, wasn't all any one person's fault, just a lot of screwups and delays.", "The steak tips were amazing but the onions weren't grilled at all. I've never been served fresh onions on this meal before. The potatoes tasted delicious but weren't warm enough to melt the butter. The servers were wonderful and kept up with our requests. By fast the best steak house meat wise that I've been to in Nashville.", "Finally found a new place to go on the weekend. I had the grilled salmon and it was the best I've ever had. The rolls were very hot, served with cinnamon butter. Service was fast for Saturday rush. We live in Hermitage and it's a long drive but so worth it since everything here has gone to the dogs.", "I have been going to this particular Texas Roadhouse almost every Sunday for the last three or so years, and it's one of the best steaks I've ever had at a commercial place. They've got good food other than that as well! Great chicken, even good shrimp skewers! \n\n\"You should be eating!\"", "Super friendly people. Always helpful. It's a great place to take the kids. They even like the food!!", "Easy and good food. I was in the area for business, and ate at the bar. Mike the bartender was great and attentive. The manager was really nice too.\n\nI will probably eat there again, when I am in town.\n\nFilet, baked potato, salad, and beer, under $30. Good meal and a good price. Nice folks." ]

They also incorrectly charged me for my soup.", "Chili's in general is good. Standard.. generally consistant. This location.. is terrible!\nEver since they opened the newer one in Northwest Reno, this location has gone way way downhill. \nMy last experience was the cherry on top. Time to rant.. I was meeting my friends there.. and they were sitting ata table in the bar. They had finished their meal and were just drinking. They told me to go ahead and order food and everyone would just hang out until I was finished. Ok... 15 min later, no one had come up to me! Their server was nowhere to be seen. So I walked up to the bar and ordered the grilled chix sandwich w/ honey must, grilled veggies, and black beans. I also asked for a water... He did not give me a water.. my friend walked up there after 10 min to ask him for it.\nThen a different employee comes up and brings me my meal. No beans.. I asked where they were and she didn't even know the menu enough to know they should be on there! She walks away and comes back with the beans. I take a spoonful.. they are ice cold! Really! My friend sticks her finger in and can't believe it! Also.. my grilled veggies were a couple of brocolli pieces and some green bell pepper.. I end up walking to the bartender to let him know about the beans and he gets a manager. (btw I was very nice throughout this whole process) The manager offers to warm up the beans. No thanks.", "We were on the home stretch after an 11-hour drive, but couldn't wait to get to Truckee to eat, so we decided to grab dinner in Reno. We wanted something quick, but not fast food, and close to the freeway. Hello, Chili's. \n\nI've never been a big fan, especially of the locations near me in Oregon, but this spot was just what we needed. After a long drive, a Cadillac margarita tastes so fine. And it was great for the kids to have about 12 options to choose from, plus multiple sides and drinks. I tried something new, a salad called the Quesadilla Explosion and it was great. Husband had the steak fajita pita and would get it again. Favorite part was probably dipping fries in Ranch sauce. We were total glutons, but hey it's our vacation.\n\nIt was a Saturday night and this place was jam packed. We were greeted and seated immediately. This location has a western motif and lots of flat screen TVs in the bar area. There were some mild delays in service, but the server regularly checked in and apologized for the wait. Chili's will never be a five in my book, but this time it really hit the spot.", "I frequented this Chili's at least once a week. It's decent food at a decent price. It's what you would expect at any large food chain restaurants, but their quesadilla explosion salad is amazing! Their desserts are pretty good and the service is always great.\nTheir take-out service is wonderful and you even get your own parking space if you take-out.", "mmmm.. I went here just the other day and I must say they make the best boneless buffalo wings.. I also really love the southwest egg rolls.. MMM just talking about it makes me want to go again! I love chilis I don't think you could ever go wrong by going here.. They are never too busy and you always get good food! \n\nThe chocolate chip paradise pie is the BEST dessert ever.", "My husband and I have not been to a chain restaurant in a while. We thought of one in our quadrant of Reno -- Chili's.\n\nWe ordered the Texas Cheese Fries as an appetizer. We enjoyed the evilness of cheese and bacon bits atop french fries. The quesedilla explosion salad was pretty good. The chicken tenders came with corn on the cob -- a nice surprise -- and yes, more fries. A few margaritas later, we left, having satisfied our need for chain dinner house fare for another few years.", "Every Friday we get our paychecks, pay our bills and try to have a nice dinner out with the family. Chili's is the perfect setting for our weekly wrap-up. The food tastes great and is reasonably priced for our budget. Our favorite server, Sean (at the McCarran restaurant in Reno, NV) brings his \"A\" game every time. From remembering our drink order to knowing just what to recommend, Sean makes the Chili's Experience come together. Without the atmosphere, the selection of menu options and Sean, Friday dinners would be just another meal.", "Why is this place always packed? I just don't get it. I've been forced to go here several times and the food is always bleh. When you have to hide the mediocrity of your offerings by drowning it in cheese or some other sauce, you pretty much meet the definition of a 2 star place. Yet night after night this place is packed to the hilt. Don't get me wrong, nothing I've had here has ever been awful, its just never been very good. Truly meh.", "You know what, sure it's a corporate chain etc. but I love this place. It reminds me of growing up back in Florida where Chili's was almost the only chain we had. It's just fun, family entertainment and the bar is pretty good after a long work week, too!", "I want to like this place. It's close and Chili's is generally one of the places I count on for a relatively decent meal. For some reason, and I've tried to be patient, this location is not up to par, for everything-food, service, kitchen, etc.\n\nWe've had situations (plural) where the food got mixed up and the manager wound up coming out to apologize for a mistake in the kitchen. Not that we asked for it mind you, but I guess it's our luck that our food shows up before appetizers, when the apps do make it out. Cold food, slow turn times from kitchen, lackluster service, and the list could go on.\n\nNice enough folks, and no major complaints but below the even mildly average standard I would ascribe to all chain eateries so only 2 *s.

All of the food is fresh, good quality, inexpensive, and large portioned. The turkey bacon sandwich has about six slices of bacon on it. A large sandwich with a bag of chips costs between $5.50 and $6.50. If you go, be sure to try the cookies for desert (also inexpensive). I highly recommend the chocolate peanut butter cookies.", "A quaint old-style southern restaurant. I had the brownie sundae (sugar coma!) and hubby had a malt. we got there just at closing. a lady was playing a piano and came by our table to ask for song requests. I read that the place used to be a drug store on the ground floor and a hospital on the 2nd floor-built in 1898 (?). It's got charming atmosphere and the desserts are hand made, not shipped in.", "This place is cute as can be and very historic but the food was awful. I did not experience fresh or quality food and neither did my lunch companion.", "My friend K asked where I wanted to go for a work lunch, and I replied 'the place with the cookies!'. I'd not been to Whistle Stop before but other coworkers who visit the area rave about those darn cookies, so I needed to see what the fuss was all about.\n\nThis is a soup, salad and sandwich place. They also have what appears to be a soda fountain of sorts (but please call to confirm as no one was partaking while we were there). Cute interior with comfy booths and tables (not a ton of them), a charming country atmosphere, and an older woman playing sweet music on the piano in the middle of the place.\n\nK and I ordered combos for $5.50 - she went with the BLT and Chicken and Dumpling soup, and I chose the Potato Bacon soup and a salad with Ranch. They're known for their potato soup, and I will admit it was delicious - creamy, not too cheesy (which I think ruins a potato soup), with hunks of potato and bacon. My meal came with two slices of their homemade wheat bread, which was also very tasty.\n\nHomemade bread. Homemade soup. Meaty bacon. Fresh salad ingredients. Inexpensive prices. Family-run business. They're doing it right!\n\nOK, on to the cookies. They had three choices when we were there - Coconut (chocolate cookie with a heart of sweet, flaky coconut paste), Chocolate Chip (cc cookie with a heart of warm fudge-y chocolate) and Chocolate Peanut Butter (chocolate cookie with peanut butter heart). Cookies are small, maybe 2.5\" wide by 1.5\" tall, but they pack a filling whallop. I bought all three (of course), but could eat only one after lunch... then one split for a late afternoon snack... then one heated up for breakfast the next day. I thought the Chocolate Chip would be my least favorite, but it was the best of the three. I could do without the Chocolate PB, and I love choc + PB.", "The food in this place is fresh, homemade delicious! But, it doesn't stop there. The owners make the place home to everyone who enters. They are delightful and very friendly. The Whistle Stop is the full deal - great food, reasonable prices, and outstanding ambiance. Makes me wish I lived in Plant City instead of Missouri!", "I been here twice and both times I left feeling disappointed. Don't get me wrong, the place has major potential. The old building is charming and they have a vegetarian menu, but based on my dining experiences I don't think anyone in the kitchen understands what a vegetarian is. The first time I came here I ordered the veggie Reuben it was super tasty, but midway through my lunch I discovered that someone in the kitchen had accidentally put corned beef on my sandwich and decided it would be OK to pick it off. Not OK. The second time I came here I ordered another one of their sandwiches (I cant recall which one) but it was pretty much just lettuce on dry bread. Totally disgusting. I really wanted to like the Whistle Stop but after my experiences I wont be headed back.", "The last time I went here I left feeling disappointed. I walked in to find multiple tables needing to be cleaned-try most the tables in the building-customers who hadn't been helped and the workers weren't to be seen. As a server this really bothers me. Once we were finally helped they messed up both mine and my boyfriends orders. It's rather sad, I grew up going here only to leave not wanting to go back.", "This place is a pretty cool little shop. The bread is all made in house, and you have to make sure to get your order in early because once its gone, they are done for the day.

The staff is friendly, the food is good, and the building is neat to look at. would recommend.", "This place has a great vibe, the food was fresh and healthy and environment was fun and relaxed with games to play and comfortable couches to sit on. It fits perfectly in downtown Plant City. The staff was wonderful and personable.", "The environment is great for an old building l. Sadly the food matched the decor. Food was bland, but okay. Other restaurants in the area with better food. Ground beef tasted cheap and the salads were rather unappetizing." ]

THANK YOU WAWA for being open 24-hrs when I was cramming all night over mid-terms & finals, or just doing homework when I was at school. Your coffee sustained me during those boring classes. And your hoagies fed me even till now.\n\nYour gasoline even helped me at a moment of need when my tank marked 'E' yesterday.", "Wawa is the best! Wawa coffee is the best, my husband loves their cappuccinos - they're so super sugary and in fun flavors like apple cinammon. Anytime I knew I was starting a long day of crap studying, my day would start with a trip to Wawa. It was like a fun school trip almost, up Ridge avenue in search of that perfect coffee and all the other snacks I was craving. The parking at this Wawa is tough, and pulling out was its own challenge, but I say for an occasional treat, well worth it.", "This is 'my' Wawa (or Wawizzle as my roommate calls it). The perfect blueberry glazed donuts, Italian hoagies with 'a little bit' of mayo, and a huge selection of Tastykakes at any hour of the day. The staff is usually very friendly and the deli makes my sandwiches very fast. I won't even get started on their impressive coffee selection, since I am trying to drink less these days.\n\nParking and entering/leaving is ridiculously hard, but I usually walk there.", "They moved across the street (but on the same block, just a little bit west to Cinnaminson St.) They now have cheap gas, a lot more space inside, and the same staff (from what I can tell). It's very car-friendly, as there is a light which allows one to take that elusive left onto Ridge.\n\nTo make this a true update, I now order \"a lot\" of mayo on my Italian hoagies. Excess is the new moderation.", "I love Wawa, but I hate this new location. \nThe gas today was 10 cents cheaper than the Sunoco down the road, but maybe that's because they are still in the \"Grand Opening\" phase. so, yay for that. BUT it feels like a truck stop off the highway. It's so big and the parking lot is huge and it's right next to that gigantic new CVS. Ya, I realize big companies are all over. But Wawa was always good about flowing with the vernacular of the neighborhood. Now it just feels like a typical suburban,\"big box\" location. and because the lot is so big it's like a journey getting in and out and maneuvering around cars. I mean, I like Philly and specifically my neighborhood of Roxborough because it's not the burbs. I'm sad that this new Wawa brings an ugly, generic, sterile feeling into my community.", "Not usually out to review convenience stores or gas stations, but this needed to be said:\n\n*****FREE AIR COMPRESSOR******\n\nI do believe this is now the only free air in the Roxborough/Manayunk area, so head here with your flats. As for the rest, it's a Wawa; if you don't know by now, you really need to get out more.", "I love WaWa. It's always open, bright, has something good to eat, good coffee, gas, free air compressor etc. You can't beat the convenience of stopping here for just about anything.

OH HELL YES. \n\ngo here.\nhowever, dont go on friday night or saturday night around 2AM. I warned you. it gets insanely packed with drunk zombies and you'll be waiting for a sandwich for at least 20 minutes. \n\nhowever, the fun ensues when the drunks so bat crazy and steal.\n\nother then the 2AM bomb parades on the weekend, i love this wawa.", "I so desperately want to give this Wawa 5 stars-- their friendly, hardworking employees and the cleanliness of the store deserve it. But the parking lot prevents me. \n\nSo, back when Wawa was across and down the street a ways (last year? 2 years ago?) we loathed the parking lot because it was so tiny and inconvenient. As a pedestrian, however, the small available room to maneuver meant that drivers had to be careful and in doing so, they would see us. It was dangerous, but less so because cars had to be looking out for each other.\n\nNow, unless you are coming from Ivy Ridge or headed to CVS, being a pedestrian at this Wawa is taking your life into your own hands. When they rebuilt it, they designed it so that the store is set way back in the lot and the entrance way is barely wide enough for two cars. There is No pedestrian walkway (sidewalk or white lines) unless you're willing to walk in a giant circle that covers about 300 extra yards (both ways-- and yes, I am lazy in weird ways). \n\nPersonally, I believe this was an intentional move desgined to deter the students from Roxborough High School. Perversely, since they walk in groups, they are actually safer than people like me, who present a solo target. However, since at least a third of their business comes from people on foot, (though, to be fair, that total may be less now that they sell gas), I really think they should have taken us into consideration in the planning and layout of their business.\n\nSo, while I love the food and the service and the convenience of Wawa, I loathe their parking lot and walk towards them cringing, feeling as though there is a bright red bullseye on my back and a flashing 500 points sign over my head... \n\n(special note: the lot is almost enough to make me give them 1 star, but that seems unfair since the workers didn't have anything to do with the planning and I do really like this Wawa...)", "I love Wawa. I got hooked on the one on New Jersey Ave in North Wildwood & it's been LOVE ever since. \n\nWawas are clean, have great food & fast service. They have ATMs, bathrooms & a lottery machine. They all seem to do a lot of business and sometimes get a little crowded. Since they are so busy, there are cars & people going in & out constantly. \n\n Most of the smaller Wawas have small weird parking lots. If I am going to one of these, I sometimes will park on the street further away, just to be free of the hassle. \n\nThe larger Wawas that sell gas are also super busy. One has to be extra careful and aware when moving about here. I usually head to the back parking lot at this location if I am not buying gas. It is a little less congested & more orderly back there." ]

The ingredients are always fresh and flavorful and the meat is seasoned to perfection. \nCasita continues to be one of my favorites for lunch, dinner or just a beer with chips and guac!", "I had lunch at Casita Taqueria last week. The restaurant is small and simple. The food is good and portions are respectable. \n\nService is order at counter and they bring it out to you. Fountain sodas are self serve. They also offer Jarritos sodas by the bottle. \n\nI ordered 2 carnitas tacos. They are served with traditional toppings: onion, cilantro, and lime. Yum! Do not expect shredded cheese and sour cream. I found the meat portion to be significant but the topping were lost. An extra dose of lime and cilantro would have gone a long way. The tortillas seemed a bit thicker than I am used to. \n\nMy colleague had 2 shrimp tacos. I ordered a Mandarin Jarritos. My colleague had water. Total with tax: $18.71.", "Absolutely love this place. We aren't from the area but we found this during our last trip and LIVED it! We were heart broken when we returned and it was gone. So excited that we found it again! GREAT food!!!!", "Really good food. The ingredients were fresh and they had a few creative vegetarian options which was important. The sangria was one of the better I have tasted as well. \n\nThis is not a typical 'Mexican' style restaurant, however. You order at the register and they charge for their chips and salsa, which they are quite stingy with I might add. I would put them in the same category as Tijuana Flats with better food. \n\nIf you're looking for a quick dinner with fresh ingredients, Casitas Taquera is a good option. If a more traditional sit down service is what you like with the unlimited chips and salsa, consider Red Mesa Cantina or Carmela's.", "Food in my opinion us ok, not great. Sounds much better in menu than it ends up being. They have several hot sauces you can use but they are more heat than flavor. Location is almost as small as previous one. Corn tortillas, not a huge fan.", "This is my first time at the new location and it is just as good as the one on central. I love it when second locations open and are just as consistent in quality as the other. \n\nThe ONLY menu item I've tried and do not like is the veggie flautas. They were greasy and I really didn't notice if there was any cheese in them (which in the end would have made them more greasy). This may be different with the meat version....? I couldn't take off a star though because they always have great service, they are clean, and everything else I've had is really good. \n\nPro-tip: there is parking both sides of the produce stand. The hottest hot sauce (honey habanero) isn't that hot and has great flavor - so try it. They have TVs inside.", "So delicious! It's essentially guilt free Mexican food without sacrificing flavor! #yum", "Fantastic! I had the \"Chimi-Hendrix\" special. They said they offer it about once a month, but I would definitely order it again. The chimichanga was a flour tortilla filled with black beans, cheese and carnitas and topped with pico de gallo, crema and cilantro, served with a side of chips and salsa. For $8 and change! I ate it all before I thought to take a photo.", "Delicious!!! This place has amazing food! I love everything on the menu but my favorite thing I enjoy eating here are the barbacoa tacos! So scrumptious! Also love the homemade hot sauces too! Their white sangria is also tasty and goes perfectly with your food! Can't wait to come back", "Stopping here just makes wish D'Mexican had opened up their second location here instead Baypines. \nThe food and service here is good but not the stuff I fantasize about and crave for days after. \nAfter my usual weekly stop at the wonderful City Produce, I asked the owners there \"How's the taco place next door?\" He said \"They really know what they're doing\". \nSo instead of taking all my fresh produce home to make a healthy salad, I decided to negate my barre class with chips, tacos and sangria instead.\nFirst, I appreciate that they put cinnamon on the red sangria. But I still.prefer D'Mexicans sangria.\nThe homemade salsa was just right after I added a capfyl of The Devil's Handshake (when I first saw it, I thought it said Devil's hand job). The guac is fresh but bland.\nI want to try a little bit of everything so I ordered the barbacoa, carnitas, and Pollo tinga tacos. The Carne asada was very tomato-y. Honestly, I'm not sure which one was chicken and which was barbacoa. Both were rather bland until I tossed in some.of the jalapeño honey sauce (okay, jalapenos and honey are a brilliant combination). \nOnto location: Super tempting on the commute home, directly across from Trader joes on 4th St but not much parking. You can park in the back as long as you park along the wall and aren't blocking traffic. You can also park in the neighborhood...and...you can park at City Produce. The signs say City Produce only but they have a pretty good relationship with the Taqueria so City P let's it slide.\nSangria done, gut full.of tacos...I wonder if I have room for D'Mexican?" ]

Funny thing is neither the hostess or server said anything about the wait. Neither did any of the many servers or manager walking around ask if they could help us. \nMy salad I barely ate due to brown lettuce. She took it away and brought our food out pretty quick. It tasted pretty good..... I ate one chicken crisper and a few fries, then started in on my second crisper when a nasty little black hair was found under my crisper.... Yuk. Couldn't eat any more. Server was nice. Took the plate away and comped my portion of the meal. Manager came out, looked my way, then went back in the back. Manager never said anything, never came by at all. I think this was a major fail on the managers part! You do not come out and look at your guest ( checking to see....what?) and never come out to apologize for the nasty hair in your guests food. I really think she was checking to see what color my hair is! Blonde.\n Anyway......\nWill not be back. I would only recommend this Chili's if you want an extreme diet plan! :)", "I had the best time with some friends at Chili's for lunch. I had the quesadillas and soup lunch special. It was delicious and a ton of food! The service was great and the meal was quick! Great job!", "Jesus, it's Chili's...is there truly a need to review the casual dining equivalent of McDonald's?\n\nThe food is generic and served in portions the size of pig troughs, but it gets the job done in a pinch.\n\nThe service was really good as well. That is all.", "I left feeling very unsatisfied. I hadn't been to a Chili's since my childhood and now I remember why... Tables were very dirty, had to clean the seats off myself before I sat down... The fajita's were horrible! Every single bite was was fatty and chewy. The chips were very good though, as well as the queso. The server was also very nice too. Just really hated the fajitas and for this reason, I probably will never visit another chili's again.", "Great place. Needed to get out so went here and it was the right kind of relaxation i needed", "Never been to a Chili's? Well its just like all other chain restaurants, with a Tex-Mex twist. Sidebar: have you been living under a rock?\n\nThe complementary chips and salsa are a solid start and always welcome as sometimes their food takes awhile.\n\nThis time I got the lunch combo of the Bacon Avocado Chicken sandwich and the Tortilla Soup. In short, anything with Avocado (slices of it, not that mush), you automatically get a star from me. That single handedly raised a potential two-star review to a 3 star review. Oh...and you say bacon is also on this masterpiece between bread? SOLD. \n\nThe tortilla soup was what it was supposed to be and tasty...sadly no bacon or avocado in it :( ... \n\nI'm sure I'll be back, but in no way is this my first choice for any meal...just one of convenience this time.", "I tend to agree with most of the reviewers who feel the food is very generic, however, I love the grilled corn guac with chips and have to get my fix every once in a while...to go, of course :)", "Not too happy. I got the spicy shrimp tacos. One bite and I downed three mugs of water. I couldn't eat them! I'm usually fine with spicy food.\nWe got the carna asada fresh mex sandwich. Very little meat. The second half had only two small strips of steak. It was actually funny. Then we waited 20 mins for our bill. Not doing this again.", "I love Chili's,,,Think they have great food, but this location was the worst. Im not sure who they have cooking but the kitchen needs help. I ordered my favorite burger which was so dry I could barely swallow it. As I was eating the table next to me got there food and the guy took a bite and pulled a big hair from his mouth!!!! I will never go back to this location again!!", "Can't tell you how the food is, because the service was so poor we left and went somewhere else. \n\nWe visited at 3:00 pm on a Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch. It took FIVE minutes for someone to acknowledge our party of two standing at the entrance waiting to be seated (despite the bar tender and several servers making eye contact). Finally got seated after the lady seating us took us to THREE different booths before finding a clean one (I didn't say anything, she noticed they were a mess). Granted at 3pm on a Tuesday afternoon the restaurant is almost empty and staff are standing around doing nothing. The lady seating us never said who our server would be and never asked for a drink order...just walked away after we sat down. Waited another TEN minutes at our table with absolutely no contact (other than eye contact) from anyone. FIFTEEN minutes after we walked in the door we walked back to find a place that actually wanted customers.\n\nI am a big Chili's fan but this location was horrible.

[ "I like Mumbai Bistro because it's a place you can go to when you get a craving for Indian food on the cheap ($4.95/lb bar, $1 samosas) or even something hot and more substantial than a sandwich, that's not chinese take out. I congratulate it for tapping this market! \n\nThere is a hot bar with daily meat and veg courses that rotate- stocked with all your standards...chicken tikka masala, paneer masala, chicken korma, some lentil dishes, potato and cauliflower curry. All these hot bar items were pretty fresh. \n\nThat being said, the quality of the dishes isn't quite Palace of the Ben worthy and they don't make their own naan (it's sorta weak). My favorite offering was the Chicken Korma- avoid the dry Chicken Tikka Masala. As far as Indian food goes, it's a little on the safer side with the spices pretty muted. You also have to remember that for lunch (depending on how much you load in your to-go box) you could pay just a few bucks more and get an all you can eat buffet at Palace of the Ben with amazing naan and dessert included in the cost.\n\nAs I said above though, the ability to get pay-by-the pound Indian food in the neighborhood is pretty freakin' sweet for lunch!", "I sampled mumbai bistro for lunch today and i was pleased. small, bright, clean space. \n\nI agree with the reviewer who mentioned that the flavors are a bit muted in the cuisine, arguably to be palatable to a wider audience, but the food is tasty nonetheless.\n\nI opted for the $4.95/lb buffet bar, which changes daily. the chicken in the tikka masala was a bit dry. my favorite was the navratan masala. i've never had this dish before, but it is mixed veggies with onions and peppers in tomato sauce. yum! and mildly spicy.\n\none plus with regard to the buffet is that you can take-out, which i do not believe you can do at the palace at the ben.\n\nall in all, mumbai bistro is a pleasant alternative if you are not in the mood for your usual fare. the prices are reasonable, the service friendly and fast, and the food decent. I will definitely return.", "I've been walking past this place for months waiting for them to open, and was finally able to check them out on their second day. \n\nThe other reviews that mention that it's cheap and fresh with somewhat muted flavors are accurate. The samosas were awesome; really fresh and only $2 for 2 of them. That is insane. It'd be cheaper and more delicious for me to eat these samosas than cook any meals, so there's a good chance that that's what I'll do.", "What a great value! Lunch and dinner buffet by-the-pound take-out place with seating available for about 20. There is a rotating menu and I like the variety they offer for such a small buffet. I was able to sample 3 or 4 dishes, in little 5oz or so portions in my container. There was a little spicy tang to the food but overall it was mild and would appeal to many. Only spent about $8 and got served a quick fresh 17oz lunch ($6) with a side of small mango juice ($2). This location is brand new as of July 2010 and they hope to expand to other locations soon.\n\nTheir to-go containers are self-sealing, and recyclable plastic, and that is thoroughly useful.", "After quite a bit of chatter, Mumbai bistro finally opened last week as a welcome addition to the buzzing neighborhood. The whole concept is to deliver fresh meals on a budget, and I believe delivering on a wholesome food promise without putting a dent on my wallet is a healthy proposition.\n\nThe is no décor per se, a small dining area if u want to eat in, and a fridge loaded wid goodies and ofcourse the buffet line complete the place. One of owners, Kyle manned the register and he patiently explained about the 4.95$ per pound of food, the daily rotating food menu, the vegan and the lactose free menu items. The service is absolutely fantabulous and very welcoming. \n\nIt is funny that I couldn't picture how much a single pound of food would look like, and I was pleasantly surprised to fill most of the plastic container with about a scoop of most things and a couple scoops each of my favs, all in 1.5 pounds. I am not a big fan of the buffet line, just cos I generally hog tooo much and am rendered useless for most of the afternoon but this blows that theory out of the pond.\n\nThe menu changes daily, and includes fan favorites like chicken tikka and paneer masala, but there are also some of the more homely dishes like saag paneer (spinach / mustard leaf gravy) and aloo gobi ( potatoes and cauliflower ) which hold more appeal to me. I felt some of the curries were a bit bland, but nothing too bad. Only the entrees are lined on the buffet, but not the rice, breads and the appetizers, so that's an extra as u complete the meal. U can pick one of the lassi or mango drinks from the cooler to fight the heat and a dessert to seal the deal.\n\nSo if it is gluttony on the cheap u are looking for, this might not be the best bet. But if u want curries , kormas and vegetables to taste the way they intend to and not like overused baking soda u have chosen wisely my friends. Very Wisely.\n\nCheers", "I did my usual sad little Yelp search for something cheap and vegan nearby on my phone yesterday evening, and I was surprised and excited to see this new Indian place pop up. I jumped on my bike and headed over. I was greeted by two friendly gentlemen who seemed so happy about their new restaurant that they were beaming at the customers. I was beaming too when I realized that there was not one but TWO vegan options at the buffet, clearly marked as such (gluten free dishes are also indicated). I'm not a connoisseur of \"real\" Indian food, but I do know my Philadelphia Indian food, and I can assure you this was excellent. I had the Mumbai Dal and the Gobi Masala, both of which were delicious and full of flavor, with a little hint of spiciness but not enough to overwhelm spice wimps like me. I just checked the menu on their website, and it looks like the buffet items change every day on a regular rotating schedule. Hooray! I can't wait to try the other stuff! You can't beat this place for fast, convenient, delicious food at a great price. For better or for worse, this is going to be a staple of my diet.", "I'll try not to be too harsh but originally I was going to give this place only one star. \n\nOk, I've just finished dinign at Mumbai Bistro where they sell Indian food for $4.95 a pound. The menu changes everyday and today we were greeted by four vegetarian dishes and two chicken dishes. My problems with the place is as follows:\n\n1. The location used to be a sushi place and it was relatively cool (temperature-wise), now that they are an Indian restaurant with a hot food kitchen in the open and a hot bath setting to keep the food hot. That place is a sauna, the ventilation is non-existent and eating inside is quite insufferable. \n\n2. Six items today, four of them are vegetarian, three of them are masalas that taste very much alike. By the time I get to the chicken masala, there were only two cubes of chicken left and I was forced to just get one cube so my friend can have some. Of the twenty minutes we were inside, they didn't think to replenish the food, so I guess customers who came after us won't get a taste.\n\n3. We got each a light plate, two sodas, two chutneys and shared one slice of onion naan and it cost us $19. With the selection so few and every item cost extra, you might as well pay a few more bucks and walk two more blocks to the larger all-you-can-eat buffets. \n\nThe food didn't taste bad, in fact it's nicely spiced but the heat is just too uncomfortable (maybe I wouldn't complain as much when its cold out), the value was just not good enough to make me go back unless I was famished and I'm too lazy to walk the two blocks then I might go back for take out.", "SO I'm brown. DUH. It's pretty obvious by my name and my foto. And by brown, I am implying that I am Indian. Not mixed, not really light skinned African American - Indian as in FROM INDIA. Well, not me, but my parents. Anywho, as a result of being Indian, I consider myself something of an expert on Indian food. I mean I have had it OFTEN. Most of my life in fact. And it's of course my fav cuisine in the whole wide world. So when I read about Mumbai Bistro on Foobooz, I naturally wanted to go there instantly. \n\nMumbai Bistro is interesting. I give it 4 stars - mostly b/c it's so cheap. And the concept is neat - food per pound! I can't even eat a whole pound of food - no matter what I do. So for me it works out well. \nAdditionally, they label all their food for people with dietary restrictions - vegan, lactose free, spicy, etc. Additionally, their menu changes often, and the things like raita, chutney's, pickles, lassi's, naan, and samosa's are extra. \n\nThe samosa was okay, the outer shell was great, but the filling was subpar. The rice was well cooked. The naan was not that great - it was pretty much roghani naan from the grocery store. The channa I had was also only okay, not great. \n\nHOWEVER me and my companion ate for $16 - and we each got samosa, naan, rice, etc. AND my dinner companion had meat! \n\nAddittionally, it's BYOB, which is always fun. \n\nDefinitely eat here if you are around - but if you have the chance to choose Indian food - go to Ekta or Tiffin.", "Mumbai is tasty and cheap Indian. The buffet is sparse, but fresh, and although none of the food packs a real punch, it is well-flavored.\n\nIf you're looking for chicken vindaloo that is going to scald the tongue, this isn't the place, but it's fast, not too oily, and doesn't sit like a pit in the bottom of your stomach like some other Indian take out.", "This place is 2 blocks from my house and 3 blocks from my office, so it's convenient for both lunch and dinner options if I am in the mood for Indian. Lucky for me that it happens to be tasty also!\n\nP.S. It is buffet style with rice and 4 or 5 main course options. You can order samosas or naan at the counter." ]

Also the service seemed a bit slow. The amount of time it took to cut a bagel in half, put some whitefish on it and onions, tomato and lettuce.... well it seemed a bit long.

I'm not saying I'm not a fan, but there are other places we've been to that serve bagels just as good.\n\nThe first time we came, I was a bit disappointed because I wanted the pork roll, egg and cheese, but the pork roll was out so I went to a fall back bacon (*note.. if anyone ever runs out of bacon, boycott the business until they leave town)... getting back..\nI also purchased the super cinnamon raisin bagel which tasted exactly like the regular cinnamon raisin so I'm not sure what the added adjective was describing.\n\nThe second time around, I opted to go for a sausage, egg and cheese on one of the different flavors they have to offer, probably cheese or jalapeno.\n\nThe bagels were good, but unless I'm in the area, or the Mrs. really wants to go, I don't think I'll venture out of my way for a bagel.\n\nPrices are reasonable compared to other places in the area.\n\nThe facts are... the bagels are tasty, the staff is nice, and as with any business, get there early before they run out!" ]

Though I can't there as often as I'd like, I make it a point to stop in an get my favorite dish - the Brocheta de Bistec - everytime I'm back in Santa Barbara. Unlike most Mexican restaurants, just about everything item on the menu is made-to-order. That means freshness and taste that's unrivaled by your typical burrito joint. This place isn't dirt-cheap, but it's only a few quarters off.\r\n\r\nThey're most famous for their tortas (Mexican sandwiches) but I've never ordered an item I didn't enjoy. They also have horchata which is crucial when eating spicy comida mexicana. A great place to grab lunch, especially if you're heading across the street to play some par 3 at Twin Lakes.\r\n\r\nThe good:\r\nHave it your way, but without the microwaves, excellent pico de gallo.\r\n\r\nThe bad:\r\nVery basic and functional layout - we're talking plastic chairs, people.\r\n\r\nThe notable:\r\nEasy access off the 101 and across the street from Twin Lakes golf course, long lines for tortas during lunch peak.\r\n\r\nThe Junius pick:\r\nBrocheta de Bistec (pork w/ mushrooms, green peppers and cheese melted over three corn tortillas).\r\n\r\nThe person you're dating:\r\nCan be brought here if they're a native Santa Barbaran or UCSB student.\r\n\r\nThe significant other/spouse:\r\nShould be brought here as an indoctrination to Santa Barbara food culture - unrivaled quality and flavor in the laid-back SoCal setting.\r\n\r\nThe last time I was there:\r\nFeburary 25, 2006.\r\n\r\nThe number of times I've been there:\r\nmore than 50.", "i've been to this location twice before today and i thought it was ok. i've been to the el sitio location on calle real twice (and ordered what ordered today) and i didn't like it much (too greasy). \n\ntoday, this location hit the spot! i can't recall the name of what i got, but i know it was the #8 cheese melted over beef, mushrooms, & green peppers with three corn tortillas on the side. \n\ni was craving mexican food and this place had me chowing down as soon as i got my plate. the portions are pretty big. i got hooked up with an extra corn tortilla, but there was so much meat that i ended up having to buy another one! 5 corn tortillas, a whole plate of #8, a fanta orange soda, and two cups of their green salsa later i had a huge smile on my face and was feeling content. \n\nmy friend who has been here in the past and thought it was only ok was blown away today too! he got the brocheta de bistec, but had it wrapped in a burrito. he said it was amazingly delicious and gave the meal 5 stars!!\n\nprices are pretty good for what you get. only 4 stars instead of 5 because this is the first time this place has blown me (and my friend) away. i'll have to try my dish again next time and see if this el sitio deserves it's 5th star for consistency.", "Unfortunately for this place, I don't eat meat. Their meat dishes (from a distance at least) all looked pretty good. I got the veggie burrito and it fuckin sucked. Beans, rice, and squash wrapped up in a slightly grilled tortilla.\n\nI hoped the salsa bar would be their redeeming factor, but I was let down by that as well. Not that it was awful or anything, there was just nothing impressive about it. The salsa didn't have much of a chance at improving the burrito anyways. \n\nI would've gladly given them 3 stars because their soda fountain started out pouring the most delicious taqueria coke I've tasted in as long as I can remember. I've mentioned in other reviews that taqueria coke has a certain flavor to it you can't get anywhere else. I don't know if they overdo the syrup or what the reasoning behind it is - but the coke here was seriously the bomb... that is, until they ran out!! I had about half a cup while waiting for my food, went back to top off and they were all out of syrup! Only carbonated water. Bummer! Meal officially ruined!!", "What to say about this place? I used to work down the street to this place and I love their tortas. Carne asada, Pork , Chicken it's all good. The restaurant is simple, usually pretty clean. It's good, cheap, authentic mexican food, not much else to say.\n\nnom nom nom.", "I wasn't feeling the magic here. Nor had I felt the magic in coming here several times over several years.\n\nI ordered two tacos from the cheapish menu, my friend got two tacos from the cheapish menu, and he also got a hortchata. $14. That's not very hole-in-the-wall cheapish, and this is definitely not a linen service kind of place. Think taco stand with plastic tables that just happen to have a permanent roof overhead.\n\nThe cheapish menu offers simple beef, pork, or vegetable tacos, and are in the $2.80 range. Pay $5-7, and you get a more interesting meat concoction and *three* tortillas. \nThe lunch combo, which I did not get, is about $9. \n\nThe burrito options might be the better way to go, they are around $6 with a wide selection of meat fillings.\n\nWe felt underwhelmed. The salsa selection was slim pickings, although they did have whole roasted small chiles and I hadn't seen that at other taquerieas in Old Town. \n\nI got a taco chuleta and taco de rajas. They were fine, I'm here to tell the tale, but if given the option of places in Old Town Goleta, I would probably dine elsewhere. \n\nCash only. And for people who are religiously devoted to el Sitio, there are a whole bunch of others in town.", "Usually taco shops with patio furniture indoors are pretty special so I got pretty excited about this place when I walked in. But then I got my taco de lomo which totally bastardized lomo by featuring over-oiled, over-cooked chipped pork, and not a particularly savory variety either. The taco de chile suizo was better, with a bunch of poblano strips and approximately 16 pounds of cheese, though the tortillas weren't particularly fresh or soft so I ended up leaving a few extras behind rather than gnaw on filler.\n\nAs you may have gathered, I wasn't terribly impressed.", "In a town that has no shortage of burrito places, El Sitio has got to be my favorite. Prices are reasonable considering what you'd pay at neighboring Mexican joints, and you get a side of chips and salsa with each meal. \n\nAs a vegetarian, my options are pretty limited, but their rajas burrito is a solid go-to. Grilled onions and pasilla peppers, beans, rice, and cheese in a grilled tortilla make a greasy beast of a burrito that will never fail an empty stomach. Their tortas are also great. I'm a sucker for a chile relleno, and sticking one inside a torta is a win. \n\nThe ambiance is forgettable, and sometimes a little too grungy, but you can't exactly ask for the Ritz in IV. The place fills up when there's a big game on, and their two HD big screens, reasonably priced beer, and ample seating makes for a great place to kick back and watch.\n\nIf you're just looking for a no-frills traditional style burrito, I'd recommend El Sitio over any other place in IV.", "This is a great local spot. I enjoyed two tacos de carnitas and only thing that made it better was adding cheese and onions.", "El Sitio translates into \"the spot\"...and the spot it is. \n\nI had some chorizo tacos with cheese. Awesome. All for less than $6.\n\nThe horchata was very generously sized. Seems like a great iocals spot that latinos actually eat at which is always a good sign for a Mexican place.", "pluses:\nrajas tacos\ngreasy carnitas\nthey now take CREDIT CARDS\n\nminuses:\nevery time I go to this specific location, they are out of carnitas. blergh." ]

[ "This is definitely some of the best BBQ I've had in a while. I would highly recommend their sandwhiches, but that's because I'm a BBQ sandwhich kind of guy.", "Some of the locals dig this place? I guess. The only thing I thought was good was the hot links. The beef brisket was dry and barely flavored. The chicken was uninspired. \n\nIt's another bbq chain. I am still in search for real bbq.", "I generally avoid chain BBQ restaurants - BBQ just wasn't intended to be mass produced. But tonight I made an exception, as business travel found me at a hotel a few blocks from Famous Dave's, and my appetite had one of those BBQ cravings going on.\n\nPros: Quantity and cost. I had the rib and meat combo ($14.49) and chose the hot link sausage to accompany four pork ribs. The hot link was quite good - I would buy it to grill at home. The ribs were OK - very tender but somewhat lacking of flavor. This platter comes with two sides. I chose the Wilbur beans (baked beans with brisket, jalapeno - probably the best part of the meal) and green beans. You get a corn muffin and corn on the cob, too.\n\nCons: It's chain BBQ. As mentioned above, the ribs were lacking in flavor. The green beans were not nearly as good as the menu made them sound. The corn on the cob was almost completely without flavor. Oh, and small TV's that are positioned way too high to be seen by most bar patrons.\n\nNice. Not thrilling, but nice.", "Best ribs in town. Meat falls off the bone and melts in your mouth.", "It was good! My chicken (white meat) was really tender...and moist. The brisket and pork were also good. Yummy cole slaw, texas toast,and the pecan pie was real tasty! Great price on combo plates.", "Good old fashioned BBQ! For a mass produced BBQ, I cannot and will not complain. The cornbread muffins should be against the law.... They are that good!! Will go back for sure", "I've always been against big chain BBQ, but sometimes you can be pleasantly surprised. I ordered a St. Louis Style Ribs and Brisket and Mac N Cheese. The Ribs were tasty, with a nice bark and smokey flavor, but were a little on the puny side as far as meat. I opted for the St. Louis style instead of the Baby Back's just for that reason. The brisket was very tender, but didn't have a deep flavor that i was looking for. It helps they have 6 different sauces to choose from. The mac n cheese was good too, and it had corn in it, which was very unexpected, but tasty none the less. Overall the ribs are thing to get here....", "To paraphrase the Joker - \"Why so famous?\"\n\n---\n\nService was good. Bench seating was comfy and the decor seemed clean, although I thought the particular shade of teal that Famous Dave's uses on its banquettes and ceiling was legally restricted to Florida diners.\n\nBBQ was OK. Award-Winning St. Louis Ribs were meaty and nicely sauced, but they didn't have any of the smoky flavor that comes from really great BBQ. (Do they not smoke their BBQ in St. Louis?)\n\nOther meats (brisket, sausage) and sides were also just ok - mashed potatoes seemed like they came from a mix (despite the presence of potato skins), potato salad tasted overwhelmingly of scallions. Cole slaw and mac-n-cheese were probably the best of the bunch, but mostly because they were inoffensive, not because either of them hit a home run. I did like the unusual inclusion of corn and a bit of jalapenos in the mac.\n\nUnlike some other reviewers, I didn't think the corn muffins were anything special, but my wife really liked them so I gave her half of mine.\n\nIf you like corn on the cob (I'm not a huge fan), you'll be happy since it seems to come with everything.\n\nI like that Famous Dave's offers 'mini' versions of its desserts for just $1.99. I can't remember the last time I ordered dessert in a restaurant, because I'm usually too full from the meal. But I thought I could stomach a mini, so I tried the Kahlua brownie mini topped with ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream. The brownie that arrived was larger than expected, compressed into a small sundae dish and nicely heated. Couldn't taste the Kahlua at all - just chocolate and sweetness.\n\n(For the second time, I realized you can tell how sweet a dessert is by taking a bite of dessert and trying to wash it down with sweet tea. If the tea tastes unsweetened, you know that your dessert is off-the-charts sweet and all your sugar sensors have been overloaded. That happened here with the brownie, although the sweet tea didn't taste all that sweet to begin with.)\n\nIncidentally, this is the first place we've been in a long while where the hostess assumed we were tourists. (\"So where are you visiting from?\")\n\nThat was awkward, since we're locals.\n\nBut apparently the question is understandable since this Famous Dave's is a magnet for out-of-towners. At least two of the five tables in our section seemed to be filled with people just passing through. Do tourists come for Cool Springs Mall or the office parks?\n\nConclusion: If you're craving BBQ in Cool Springs, this is not a bad option, but I wouldn't make a special trip.\n\nps - There is an actual Dave behind Famous Dave's and he has a pretty interesting life story (http://www.famousdaves.com/about-daves/daves-biography/). \n\npps - I do have to admit that Famous Dave's has some pretty good BBQ sauces. My favorite was the peppery Texas Pit.", "Meh. I'm not a chain restaurant guy & this is an example of why.\n\nI'm sure when this was a small operation with just a few restaurants that it was great. Service was polite & friendly, restaurant was very slow so it was quiet & easy.\n\nThe food was just there - very bland, not at all special.\n\nTry Roosters in Frankin, Judge Beans in Brentwood or Martins in Nolensville.", "My husband & I really enjoy famous Daves. The wait staff is always so friendly & they pay special attention to the little ones! We love BBQ & Famous Dave's is never a disappointment. We usually get the feast for 2 ( I know really fat style) but we just enjoy sampling everything. We don't usually do chain BBQ but Dave's is different :)" ]

[ "They serve breakfast all day with lunch options in the afternoon. The staff is really friendly. There is not very much space so best to get there early before it fills up.", "Sadly, this was an extremely poor experience. I take into consideration that they are new and were slammed on Memorial day but knowing that this is their second location I expect most of those kinks to be worked.\nWhen we arrived we were told 20 - 30 minutes. We waited for 45 monutes before they seated us and another 25 at our table before anyone acknowledged we were sitting there. The manager (owner?) was chatting with one table of customers and the hostess sat up front on her phone when she wasn't answering the business phone. No one was refilling coffee or water. Finally, the waitress took our order, we received our drinks and continued to wait another 45 minutes for our food. We ordered eggs with hash, pancakes and traditional eggs, bacon and hash-browns. The pancakes and eggs with hash came first. Two fluffy pancakes topped with a strawberry and \"Iknowthatwasnt\" butter, served with maple flavored high fructose corn syrup. The eggs and hash were over hashed and under seasoned. Then the bacon and eggs appeared with typical cubed potatoes, nicely browned with little to no seasoning. The bacon was tasteless. The egg-white of the over easy eggs were clear and even cool on the inside. But no one returned to ask us how our meal was until we were finished. I mentioned the eggs and the waitress said \"that's over easy\". She did offer to have them cook me new ones but by that time we were DONE. I did eat a bit of the under cooked egg and was sick for about 24 hours. Sadly, we were really excited about a breakfast in our neighborhood but this won't be it.", "We decided to try the new Breakfast Boutique in Chestnut Hill yesterday. Food was wonderful and staff was attentive and lovely. Don't miss the quinoa hash - delish!!!! A perfectly enjoyable breakfast experience!", "Made a reservation at 9:15 and were seated at 9:40. We sat for 10 minutes and were not spoken to or given silverware, water, coffee etc. We the left and couldn't even find anyone to tell we were leaving.", "Pointers - and you decide for yourself:\n\nWater doesnt run freely from the taps of Chestnut Hill - have to ask for it. When I did, only my friend got water - I didn't. Coffee - had to ask three times for a refill, they kept passing me by with the damn filled coffee jug. Food took around 40 minutes so we decide to pay for the beverages and leave. Then they say its ready. Then, my friend gets his food, I wait - again - for mine. Home fries - stay away. Very very dry, unsalted, no seasoning, zero taste. Also, cold. My banana french toast was bread \"almost\" dipped in batter, kinda not dipped, maybe semi-in-a rush-dipped. Kinda=not. I ate bread with cinnamon warmed up in some very corn syrupy syrup.\n\nStaff seems untrained. Ive never seen in all my years in the industry the waitress put down the tray full of beverages on the customers table then take out the phone from the back pocket of her jeans and answer it, and talk on the phone, while the four of them just starred at her in bewilderment. As were we, from the other table. Since the entire dining room was just starring at each other, no one had food in front of them. Just a bunch of people looking at the kitschy wallpaper, and each other, quietly, hungry, waiting, on a beautiful Sunday early morning.", "Never go to this restaurant. First and last visit today. Extremely poor and very rude service. Had to ask 3 x for coffee that was ordered when we sat. Waited 45 minutes for food expecting since everything was made fresh it was worth the wait. Food served cold and had obviously been sitting before it ever got to us. Honestly it's not hard to make an omelette. Had to flag down our waitress to tell her the food was cold - she acted shocked and said ok one minute I have to do something. Then sent a very uninterested person over to apologize who said he'd have our food remade quickly. Waited another 15 minutes and asked another waiter for the check for our coffee - he sent our original rude waiter over (who still hadn't removed the bad food from our table yet) over and she said I'm going to go check on your food. We told her again - no thank you we need to leave it had been over an hour since we sat and still only had coffee. She went downstairs got our food and put it in a Togo container. (REALLY). I didn't want the disgusting cold eggs you served the first time why would I want a cold omelette in a to go container. Told her again to please bring us a check for the coffee so we could pay. She walked away and started helping other customers and would not come near us. Finally told another waiter or said no need to pay for the coffee. Absolutely terrible service - never been treated so rudely and the food that was served to me was cold and disgusting. If you want to run a boutique restaurant then you need to invest in wait staff with manners. Oh and think about serving the food hotnifnyour gonna make people wait forever there should be a good reason! I'll stick to the Fairlane!", "Waiter Gus was awesome, good food, great vibe and decor...will return for sure...I love the look, quaint, clean and nice music", "I want this to succeed, in part because I want to see more Black run businesses in Philly. Food was very good, especially buttery grits. They were overwhelmed by the big number of customers on a Sunday morning at 8 am - 9:30, so there was a long line. I'm hoping they figure out how to speed up to handle the volume. We enjoyed our meal and will come back in a month, to try again.", "Absolutely the perfect breakfast place..\nFood is delicious, reasonable prices and cute atmosphere..", "Went there during a busy time and the service was awful and they were completely unorganized. The servers and hostess were having to buss tables since there was no busser. They were cleaning tables off with a dirty rag. The hostess barely acknowledged us when we walked in. After we were seated they were not very attentive to us. We asked for iced tea. They automatically gave me sweetened tea. My dad also asked for an iced tea and they gave him one without ice. They forgot a couple items that we had asked for and tried to bill us for it. It took about 20-30 minutes just for us to get our drinks. Then they never gave us straws. When we asked for utensils (which, again, we had to ASK for) the person was kinda rude and it STILL took a while for them to deliver. My mom's food was cold after waiting an hour. Just overall, not such a great experience. Would definitely not go back. The food was OK. That's about it... been in the food industry a while so it's hard not to be such a critic." ]

[ "The bistek tacos with salsa verde are great and they're open really late.", "So it's called Florida Subs & Gyros but insiders know it as \"the shit\" Seriously, they call it that! The best tacos around. Definitely authentic, a little greasy, no sour cream and plenty of cilantro and raw onion. The salsa verde is quite good too and hard to find in Tampa Bay. Never had a sub or gyro here and don't know anyone who has, so can't comment on that.", "So what do you do if it's 11pm Christmas night, you're driving home from the relatives, and even though you chowed down on turkey there, it's been 9 hours since you ate a thing. And what if you're driving down Gulf to Bay near Hercules, and the only thing that's open is McD's and BK...that is until you spot some lights on in a little joint in a small plaza at a place called Florida Subs & Gyros. You're not really hungry for a turkey sandwich, but you figure you've got to check it out. And then once you're inside, you find the place is half full of locals chowing down, not on subs or gyros, but.....\n\nMexican?\nWhat the....\n\nIt turns out this spot is cranking out authentic, tasty Mexican from the back by two dear ladies who believe that from 3pm-3am on Christmas, Mexican food fans will need to eat somewhere, so why not at their place? \n\nTurns out late night dining is not unusual as Florida Subs, with hours of 11a-2:30a Mon-Thurs, 11a-5a Fri-Sat, and Sunday noon to midnight. I wouldn't be surprised this place gets some significant business for the bar crowds after closing.\n\nThe interior is surprisingly big with seating for about 75 people in booths. If you're a neat freak, this place could stand a good cleaning, as the floors look like they've accumulated some significant dirt over some time. But if you're not fazed by that, and realize that a clean Mexican restaurant certainly doesn't guarantee the food will be good, then order up some favorites. Even though it was busy, orders were taken promptly with friendly service/smiles, and food served up shortly afterwards.\n\nThere's a huge menu over the counter detailing 9 salads, ~20 subs, more burgers & dogs, chicken tenders & wings, and platters of fried fish/shrimp/gyros/chicken pitas. These folks even serve up corn dogs for pete's sake! But fairly hidden on a white board just to the left of the counter is all the Mexican choices, too. Every day they serve eight meat choices for tacos, including barbacoa (lamb) which most local taquerias only serve on weekends. Tacos are served in both traditional style (2 fresh cooked corn tortillas with cilantro/onions/salsa, as well as Tex-Mex (heaping with lettuce/tomatoes/white crumbly cheese). In addition they have huaraches, gorditas, tamales, quesadillas and burritos.\n\nI ordered a traditional carnitas (pork) and barbacoa taco, and my guests ordered chicken tacos Tex-Mex style. The 2 corn tortillas came out so hot I couldn't pick it up without wrapping it in napkins. The carnitas was good/solid but not exceptional, and the barbacoa was not very good. My guests raved about their chicken tacos, so I followed up with a traditional chicken taco, which was an absolute winner, just outstanding with moist chicken seasoned well. Florida Subs also serves up an excellent salsa verde, which really pulls the blend of flavors together. I wish I would have tried the steak tacos instead of the barbacoa, but that gives me a reason to return.\n\nValue was good, with the traditional tacos at $2 and Tex-Mex at $2.50, both right in line with the competition in Clearwater, and very good when you consider hardly any other taquerias serve up 2 tortillas in each taco.\n\n\n\nI'm a bit torn on how to score Florida Subs, but on my 5-star Pinellas taqueria scale, I give it:\n\nAtmosphere: 3\nService: 4\nFood: chicken taco a 5, carnitas a 3 and barbacoa a 2\nValue: 4\n\nOverall score I'd give 4 on the chicken alone (and hope the steak is just as good).\nI'll definitely give it another visit and update my review.", "I used to live a 5 min walk from this place and I frequented it often! It's a hispanic run little hole in the wall that makes some damn good homemade subs and sandwiches plus some other appetizers. It's open late and it does quite well as it seems to tailor to the people that are getting off restaurant hours. Being that I worked the late shift on a regular occasion, it was a great pit stop on the way home when I was hungry and tired around 1 in the morning. They had great Mozz sticks and I would get the Steak and Cheese on occasion. Overall its a great little place mostly unnoticed on the Chaos of Gulf to Bay in Clearwater.", "Why 4 stars? Because they are open late in a sleepy town.\n\n --- --- ---\n\nClearwater. Not exactly the city that never sleeps. Kinda the opposite actually. It almost exclusively sleeps.\n\nBut I stay up late, and so does Florida Subs & Gyros. I was on my way back from a presentation, when I realized that my belly was empty. I sat in my car for a solid 10 minutes trying to figure out where to eat in North Pinellas around 945pm. I remember Rich D (aka Mr. Clutch) reviewing this place, and I instantly knew where to go.\n\nI ordered a chicken pita. I'll be honest, it wasn't life-changing. But I am willing to bend my rating for the convenient hours, and vast menu. It's not just subs & gyros, there's actually a full Mexican menu of items to choose from as well.\n\nI don't usually hang out in Clearwater late at night, but I know where I'll eat next time I'm in that sitch'.", "The food is good, the inside is kinda old fashioned, the price of the food is CHEAP, definitely a bang for your buck. I've had the gyro's, steak and cheese sub, and the wings, all deserve at least 4 out of 5 stars. Would have gave a 5 but the steak and cheese sub had NO CHEESE or mayo and the wings are VERY TINY, and when i say tiny i mean tiny, a wing is about the size of a lays potatoe chip so don't expect to get full off of 10 of them. But overall i will probaly go there again.", "The staff are pretty nice it has a surprisingly large seating area. Room to spread out. The place smells a bit of fabulouso floor cleaner. The food is awesome though.\n\nAmazing gyros and the onion rings came out perfectly!!\n\nThe area around this place is pretty ghetto plus right down the street from Clearwater high so if you come around the time school gets out you have the pleasure of dealing with hormonal teenagers strutting around making a ruckus. Nothing I wouldn't have done at their age though.", "This was my girlfriends go to spot before. So she wanted to take me here on the trip. She said they make delicious tacos. Hmmm but this place is called subs & gyros, well we all order tacos. I ordered the pork and steak. Both tacos have lettuce, tomatoes, cilantro, and feta cheese with lime. The steak was excellent and I should've ordered 2 steak tacos. Because the pork was bland and it didn't have much taste. I would come here often too if I lived around here.", "This place has incredible tacos! I'd love to try the rest of the menu, but the tacos are so good that I can't bring myself to ordering anything else. The staff is very polite and there's plenty of room for a bigger group of people. I will definitely be back, especially since they have late hours.", "Excellent prices, lots of food!\n\nThis place is like a hodgepodge of Mexican, American and Greek food. I haven't had all that many things off of the menu, but what I have had was really good.\n\nThere's parking in a shared lot.\n\nThe staff are very nice." ]
