Sushi is still amazing!!! I love anytime I find rolls that aren't smothered in sauce and tempura flakes. Being able to enjoy the flavors was wonderful!!! Still one of my favorites. Great sushi! Even better staff. It\'s a great place to go for "happy hour" when you want to let your hair down and feel sexy!!! The owner is a little fire cracker be prepared to dance with her on the weekends. The Firecracker Shrimp is my favorite thing in the menu. The only complaint I have is that sometimes service is slow. I've been to Nikko's several times over the years, and have always had fun while enjoying the ambiance, the food and Nikko herself! That's right, most evenings Nikko is walking around in her black or white cowboy hat greeting (and sometimes dancing with) patrons and taking pictures. \n\nAs far as the food - if you love sushi this is probably a top 3 spot in CLT for sushi. They've got a loong sushi bar w/several chefs creating a variety of unique and classic sushi options. I usually run one or two of their daily sushi roll specials. They also have your classic hibachi/stir-fry/teriyaki-style selections served with steamed veggies and rice - try the salmon. \n\nService is usually straight here, although I wouldn't say spectacular. For example, they don't hide the fact that they are closing in 45min and want you to leave - hehe. Regardless of how busy they are, food always seems to come out in a timely manner and just as you ordered it.\n\nMy one complaint is sometimes this place lacks a bit of couth. I am all for a DJ on Friday & Saturday nights - but does it have to be so extremely loud you can't carry on a convo w/ the person next to you? If you are looking for a laid-back, quiet experience this is NOT the place.\n\nComplimentary valet parking. \n\nThe food is always exceptional. The service is good. The ambiance is modern, hip and trendy. I will def be back, but could you just turn the music down a bit though? Awesome rolls and food. Should be noted on Friday nights this place has a DJ and gets very very loud so don't go Friday nights if you are trying to talk to someone !

Came for dinner and was very impressed. The food was excellent, the prices are fair, the service was good and portions were large. \n\nI saw somebody had posted a picture of a little combo plate on Yelp. It wasn't on the menu but I showed the server the picture and he said he could make it happen. So I had the combo with manicotti and baked ziti with a meatball. Their sauce was excellent and the meatball was one of the best I've ever had.\n\nWe also started with small dinner salads....nothing special but fresh and good.\n\nThey don't take credit cards....so make sure you have cash ready. \n\nIt's a family place and everybody leaves with a handshake and pat on the back from the owner. It's a great atmosphere. \n\nI would definitely come back here. Great family dining in a quaint, homey setting! Visiting family and am from Boston (so close to the Italian North End of Boston), my family brought me here. Just as good if not better! Everything was delicious and the service was great. The owner was personable and attentive! Highly recommended!! Great lunch spot...food is always the BOMB and owner makes it fun..pasta is super fresh! I think the entire restaurant was staring at me when I took the first bite of their linguini Alfredo. App entry they thought that something was wrong when I kept saying Oh My God. Pretty sure their Alfredo is one of the best I have ever had. And don't even get me started on the cheesecake that the owners wife makes from scratch. Went here for the first time and this is the best Italian restaurant I've ever been too.. Small family business that cares about making sure your visit is the best it can be

Best Thai food I have found in the Akron area! I have been driving past this place and have wanted to check it out-and finally did after reading the yelp reviews. I had an egg roll and the chicken pad Thai and both were delicious. The pad Thai had just the right amount of spice and I asked for mild. And the prices can't be beat either! I will definitely be coming back here again. I recommend it to anyone craving Thai! On my first visit, I had to call from my cell phone to get somebody to come out to the counter to take my order. Had the papaya salad, chicken larb, and tofu green curry. I waited about 15 minutes, and it came to about $21. Everything was yummy - I'll try the pad thai and drunken noodles on my next visit! I'm glad there's another new restaurant on North Hill (I miss Thai Pho and China House) and I'll be happy to order from them again! Oh my gosh! I drive past this place every day to and from work. Today I ordered some carryout drunken noodles. Delicious! I wasn't sure what to expect as far as heat level. It had no spice at all. Next time I'll ask for some spice. They had my order ready in 10 minutes and were so friendly. From the outside this place looks like they are going to try and sell me a new phone but thankfully it was only advertising for another store in the plaza. This is the worst customer service I've ever been to. I ordered the drunken noodle that suppose to be wide rice noodle but I got the egg noodle instead. I called and they said that's the kind of noodle they made in their drunken noodle which is the worst!!!! Called again cannot return or exchanged. Bad bad bad bad bad bad bad!!!!! The lady up front yelled at me and said if you want another one you have to buy a new one.. really????? I wish I can put a neg star!!! Best Thai food we have found in Ohio! We've been to Thailand and lived in Los Angeles for many years with awesome, authentic thaifoos and this is definitely up there with the best. Very, very good! Will be back.

Rude lady. Trying to order was impossible as she walked around carrying order sheets and turned her back to us. I had to leave because of her ignorance Amazing pizza. Surprisingly quick service and the unlimited topping option is the one I always go for because of their great selection of toppings. 13 bucks and i get a delicious pizza with unlimited toppings. Very good. After mexican food Pizza is #2 on my list of favs so Im very hard on pizza places. With this new pizza shop being right around the corner from my favourite H&M on bloor I just had to try it. This is the best fast service pizza Ive had in a long time !!! The unlimited toppings, the thin crust is thin and perfectly chewy ; just writing about it makes me want to go there now. Nice modern spot. Open clean environment. Straight forward menu with a hand full of items, priced well. \n\nTried the Margherita pizza, gets the job done. No skimpy toppings, fresh cheese, good crust. Has the stone baked Italian pizza taste. Overall order time was quick, would say around 5 minutes. The pizza came out of the oven with the cheese bubbling and crust puffed up. Added chili flakes, good stuff. \n\nWould go again and recommend if your into this style of pizza. To start off, the pizza is delicious. My friend and I ordered two of the custom pizzas. I would return for the pizza again...\nhowever, the gentleman behind the counter was very unpleasant. He made us feel like we were wasting his time. If he didn't already start preparing the pizzas we would have just left. \nHad it not been for the terrible service I would have gave Pi Co a 5 star for sure. \nTerrible staff can ruin an experience.

chinese

This is an excellent "to-go" Chinese restaurant. The near dozens of times we have ordered here, everything was made correctly, tasted good and still hot. This is definitely the way to go if you\'re in the Solon, Warrensville or Bedford area and want a non-dining experience. iheart the dragon rolls!! #FIYAH This has to be the worst most disrespectful place I have ever been to. They got my order completely wrong and after looking over the menu I was overcharged for the items they gave me I have been here a couple of times by now. They have a nice buffet that you pay by the pound. The food is good but the place is not a nice place to stop for lunch or Dinner . My Advice is go get your Chinese here and enjoy it at home. This is our favorite take out Chinese spot. The service is awesome and they have a great menu. The homemade iced tea is great!!!!

What a treat. Overlooking fountain park, this restaurant is a wonderful place to relax and have a tasty meal with friends. Service was warm and friendly, and the martinis were cold and generous. The calamari and firecracker shrimp are a must. Another highlight were the fried pickles. Yum! Wonderful new Fountain Hills restaurant. Fish and chips were fresh, not frozen and amazing......Kobi Burger, perfect! Ambiance lovely views and a very nice interior. Nothing like Kimmies.....we loved it. Service was great, very friendly, very busy and amazingly good. Excited to have them here. Live in Fountain Hills, we were excited to have a new resturant in town. After we were seated with menus, there were four staffers standing at the hostess station laughing and having a gay old time. Fifteen minutes was enough, as we left the employees scattered and tried to look busy. Past someone when leaving and asked for a manager, he said that would be me. He asked if anything was wrong. Told him of our experience, and he asked if he could do anything, told him no thanks. But did tell him that this would be a great location to open a good restaurant. As far as we can tell,\nthey will not be long before they will meet the same fate as Kimmies. SUCKS BEYOND BELIEF!!!!!!!!!\nDo NOT go here if you have a child or are a vegetarian. Actually do not go here at all.... First of all we waited at least an hour for our food and then the guy drops off a tuna salad sandwich and acts like I should still eat it even though I ordered the vegetarian sandwich which he couldn't even tell me what the ingredients were in the first place. So let me tell you what is in the veggie sandwich: basically what you are getting is just a burger without meat. I got raw onions, lettuce, tomatoes and salsa on french bread. It was awful. I am giving myself 5 stars though for not gouging my own eyes out at the table while starving to death and trying to entertain a hungry 2 year old that did NOT like her kid's mac n cheese. FYI kids don't like sausage in their mac n cheese. SO we waited for an hour for crappy awful non-inventive food that we could NOT even eat. The people next to me said their spaghetti was cold and the fish and chips was raw on the inside. Nobody came by to bring us water even though there were plenty servers standing around. This place will be out of business in no time I am sure. If you are actually considering going to this restaurant I would advise gouging your eyes out with forks the minute you sit down and it will be a million times less painful than going through the misery of what I just endured. #whitepeopleproblems All items on menu are fresh & fabulous taste with a view of the famous Fountain, in beautiful Fountain Hills AZ.

My sister and I were harassed by the bouncer. \n\nLast night, around 1:00 AM, a group of about 8 of my friends and I decided to go to Spirits Cleveland on W 6th. Seven of us had our IDs checked and walked in. But he wanted a 10$ cover charge for the last man in our group. Wondering if I had somehow just missed the other guys being charged, I gave the ten dollars. We went in and find out he was the only person charged.\n\nWe went back to clear it up with the bouncer and he responded by accusing the rest of the men in our group of "sneaking in." Which they absolutely had not. We were obviously upset by this and decided to leave and take the rest of our money with us. \n\nHowever, on our way out the bouncer proceeded to yell at my big sister and I that the reason he charged our friend $10 was "that he didn\'t look like could suck a good dick." He didn\'t say it once, he repeated it over and over again. Insinuating that we all looked like we could "suck a good dick" and that\'s why we got in for free. \n\nThere was a Cleveland Police officer standing by on post at the bar right next to us. My sister and I were being told to leave by the officer. When we were telling him about the disgusting sexual harassment that just occurred he actually looked right at us and said "Okay... What do you want me to do about it?" while the bouncer stood behind him flipping us off repeatedly. \n\nNOTHING that we did warranted that kind of treatment from the bouncer or the officer. It was an appalling and unfair experience. As sad as it is, the man handling and harassment that comes with going to W. 6th is expected. But what we experienced was too much.\n\nSpirits Cleveland has lost my business and I hope, if you\'re reading this, they\'ve lost yours too. This place is back open. At least it's open for Browns games. I don't know who owns or manages the place now, but having one of your barmaids wear a Steeler jersey during the Browns Steelers game in Cleveland is not a good look. We left and took our business elsewhere. I went to Spirits during the soft opening, so please take that into consideration when reading this. I understand that they hadn\'t received a lot of things on their menu, since they had just opened but some of the things Spirits has doesn\'t make sense. I\'m actually not sure what it\'s trying to be as it seems it wants to be all things to all people. It\'s a cigar bar and hookah lounge, a restaurant, a hipster bar and a nightclub, and they have a popcorn machine. They also advertise a healthy menu, but in reality it\'s typical pub fare with a selection of sandwiches, burgers and apps--not exactly the healthiest. \n\nHaving said that, the food was delicious. I very much enjoyed the turkey burger I received (one of the most healthy options they offer). Although the service was rather slow (it took 10 minutes to get mayo), but I will again chalk that up as "just opened" jitters. \n\nI think the thing that perplexes me the most is their salad bar. It\'s very tiny and hidden away in the back next to a small soup warmer. It\'s on a portal unit, I\'m guessing so they can move it at night along with the tables and chairs to turn the space into a nightclub. But it just seems unappetizing to me. \n\nAll in all, I\'m not sure what to make of Spirits. I will certainly be back at some point down the road and then I\'ll be able to edit this review after garnering a full experience, but as of yet I\'m just not sure what to make of it at all. Great new bar in downtown. I was in town for the night and use Yelp to find the next hole in the wall. Yelp led me to a dive bar that was closed, so we stopped at Spirits because we were parched from our walk. Stephanie welcomed us to this wonderful new establishment with a smile and a little bit of feral cat. Just down my alley and the Reuben sandwich was way up there in my top ten list of sandwiches. Our whole night here was a disaster. First, they missed the Cavs ring ceremony because someone changed the channel and couldn't work out how to change it back. They proceeded to play music over top of the commentary. Then everyone missed the start of the World Series because they forgot to change the channel even though everyone on the bar was there for the game. Then they couldn't get the sound working for 20 mins. They were not that busy, staff were not interested, on their phones, and our waitress would just disappear. We ordered food, waited for an hour, didn't arrive. Asked the waitress, then it arrived cold 10 mins later. The burger was actually the highlight of the night when it finally came. We will never come back here. Be warned there is a reason why it's the last bar to fill up on a busy night.

I'm a regular here because they have the best Vietnamese restaurant in Newmarket with great service. Bubble tea is amazing and pho is amazing on a cold day! The appetizers such as dumplings or fresh rolls are great for a quick bite. Definitely try! Old reliable. Great broth, fresh ingredients and skilled friendly staff. Very clean and tidy.\n\nStaff makes great efforts to make every dish special and I always love the dumplings! For my second pho restaurant I tried in Toronto, this one was just above average. I really enjoyed the staff and food here. When you order apps, they present to you the sauces and plates and bring in the apps BEFORE the meal (how it should be). The Pho was good as well as the service. I would definitely come back here again, without worrying about the quality of this restaurant. The only downside to this restaurant i can think of? The washroom smelled like it was maintained on a regular basis. Or maybe i was just there at the wrong time... Well regardless, this definitely deserves a 4 star. Eaten here for both lunch and dinner and both times were excellent. The menu has both Thai and Vietnamese selections and the options are vast. The soup broth is very nice, homemade with the perfect level of spice. Fresh rolls are amazing with a hit of mint. They have beer and wine another plus. Prices are reasonable, very good value, enjoyed our meals and will be back! Great local spot for pho! Dumplings snd Fresh Rolls are also my favorites! Service is also consistent and great.

Chipotle model, but food is consistently better for the same price. You choose a burrito, tacos, or some other main dish, then choose your meat and toppings. My wife and I had pastor; mine had habanero salsa and hers had salsa verde. Both were phenomenal. Nice attention to small details, too: the tortillas are warm and nicely browned, there are lots of fresh seasonings in the toppings, etc. Help was friendly. It's a great addition to the North Side. We'll be back. At this Habanero's, I could have overlooked the extremely unwelcoming service if the food was good, but, it wasn't. If I had known I was going to get a meh tasting burrito, I would have walked out halfway though the burrito build. The guy behind the counter was so surly, I was uncomfortable by the time I checked out. My friend was being helped by someone else, and she was asking him questions, and getting answers. I was getting blank stares and glares.\n\nI should note that this was my first time eating at Habanero's, and I have been through the other location before, and they are very friendly. This could have been 4 stars. I wanted it to be 4 stars. I came in with my family asuming this would be as good as the other location. I was wrong. When we walked in, we were not greeted by the staff at the counter. they just stared at us. We ordered 7 tacos, a torta, a side of beans and 3 drinks. The Torta was more bread than anything else. the amount of meat and toppings they give is ridiculous. The tacos werent bad but they could have used more flavor in the meat. Someone behind us came in with a punch card and when my husband asked about getting one, the guy just ignored him. When he asked again, the employee said they were out of cards and to ask next time. We asked for limes and we were told they do not have limes. What the heck? What kind of mexican restaurant doesn't have limes? Not to mention, the place is filthy. We left hungry and disappointed. We wont be back. I live very close to Warner Park in bad need of a burrito and couldn't be bothered to drive to Qdobas. A quick walk to the new Habanero restaurant later and I found a similar set up to Qdobas and Chipotles. The menu had a good number of choices but I ultimately chose a steak burrito. It was very satisfying and there were lots of toppings to put in, although the slightest bit watery. Will be back to try their other entrees. I think Habanero's has another location off Stoughton. This location is the same setup as the other one. First, you decide if you want tacos, a burrito, a burrito bowl, or a salad. Then, you choose your meat. There's barbacoa, carnitas (slow-cooked pulled pork, not the fried pork), adobo steak, adobo chicken, al pastor, or veggie. Then, there are a bunch of things you can add, like pico de gallo, sour cream, 3 different salsas, beans, cheese, etc. \n\nI would recommend you get the 3 taco deal with the carnitas or the chile pork Mexico city style (cilantro, onions, and lime). It is a little piece of heaven and reminds me of home (Texas). It's all pretty cheap (about $6); does not come with sides like beans and rice. They also have horchata and Jarritos (Mexican soda).

I strongly advise not to go to this location. The service is mediocre in general, it's rushed and it can be sometimes unprofessional. The drinks are watery and poorly made. The mint leaves used for the mojito was black and not fresh. The food takes a long time to arrive and the menu is just a combination of hardshell and soft tortilla with different meats and placed differently but after all they are all the same. The sandwiches are dry and stale and the ribs feel like drum sticks. \n\nI think it's disrespectful to the Mexican culture because the food doesn't represent it well. This restaurant is just a bunch of processed food put together and it feels like they didn't even try...... Souper un vendredi soir. Service courtois. Portions tr\xc3\xa8s g\xc3\xa9n\xc3\xa9reuses. Belle ambiance. Le paiement de l'addition a \xc3\xa9t\xc3\xa9 un peu trop long, mais dans l'ensemble une tr\xc3\xa8s belle exp\xc3\xa9rience. Worst experience ever! First, we called to see if there was seating available during a hockey game and they stated a wait time of 15 mins. Once we arrived there was a fairly sizeable lineup extending out the door. This turned into a 45 minute wait, but we just sucked it up being we were already there. After being seated we weren't served for another 10 mins after. At this point the waitress finally showed up and took our drink order in a rush, she basically took our orders and ran off without giving us an option to add anything else. When we received our drinks my wife tasted her sangria and about vomited, it tasted like vinegar. One we got the waitress to come over to replace it with a mojito she was very apologetic. That mojito tasted like soda water with lime (drinks are horrible here!) Finally we ordered our food, everyone's dish was complete garbage. My chicken mole tasted like bland chicken with chocolate syrup, my wife's steak was practically raw (she ordered it medium) and our friends both meals were one overcooked and the other cold. After we explained our dissatisfaction with pretty much everything to the waitress, it was nothing but apologies and blaming. She offered us a round of tequila shots to smooth it over and we felt this was not enough, we really felt we shouldn't have to pay for the disgusting food they served us. In the end we had only a couple meals removed from the bill and an embarrassing argument in the middle of the dining room with the manager. In short I do not recommend this place and would not be surprised they go under within the next year. Bon plat mais service horrible. pas de chips a part si on demande, nos boissons etaient toutes fondues tellement que c'\xc3\xa9tait long. service en general est vraiment lent. Was there last week for 5$ Margaritas night and figured I would grab dinner.\n\nI love the downtown located for the ambiance but this location is nothing like downtown. It's more like a family restaurant that serve tacos. \n\nThe only good thing was the service and this is the only reason why I give it 2 stars.\n\nThe margaritas were very watery and I am pretty sure they forgot the alcohol in it. I also ordered a mojitos and this one was straight up alcohol. No middle ground on the drinks.\n\nI wanted a chicken breast with mango salsa and 5 minutes after I placed the order the waitress came back to advise me that they were out of ingredients for this meal and that I had to picked something else. I believe I ordered the Santa Fe chicken with veggies instead and the plate came and it was very hot but the veggies and fries were cold.\n\nCheap drinks or not I will not be going back. I will stick to the downtown location.

This is a great new local froyo!\n\nAfter driving by several times with lines out the door, I finally ventured in, and committed to waiting it out.\n\nGlad I did, the line flowed quickly and the yogurt was great.\n\nI found their flavor and topping selection to be on par with what a froyo shop should be. This place doesn't go above and beyond, but delivers the product as it should.\n\nI found their staff to be knowledgeable, friendly and they helped. They had two people watching over the toppings and keeping everything in order and best of all clean.\n\nThey had carpeting that circled the line and ran right up to the yogurt machines and topping bar...so the floors didn't get filthy from dirty customers as I've seen recently at other shops.\n\nI was pleased to see that they had several non-dairy products for my lactose intolerant brother, and those tasted great!\n\n$.42/ounce (July 2012) is on par with what you'd expect for this area, and the quality of product offered. I was surprised to see different sized cups available. Most other shops encourage you to take a large cup and instinctively fill it. Not here, there was still a small cup available, and of course our children filled their's to the point of overflow. I have 4 kids and they absolutely love this place one of the best places to eat ice cream with kids and do something just to get out the house. The only thing this place has over other places serving frozen yogurt is the opportunity to put as much in the cup as you\'d like to serve yourself before laying on as many toppings that little snotty nosed kids have been running their fingers through to your heart\'s content. Then get to be charged out the rear for the opportunity for self service! YAY! We think we\'re in New York or Boston, not Stow, OH.\n\nSeriously, take the kids somewhere else. Other little heathens with filthy hands have been fingering the toppings. They charge an EXORBITANT amount for the privilege of self service. And they claim to be "christians". Don\'t remember ever reading any passage in any bible that says, "Thou shalt stick it to thine neighbor as hard as possible at every whimsy. Yea, thou shalt reap the toil of others\' hard work at self service." We absolutely love this place...my kids enjoy it every time we go. Facilities are clean. Flavors and toppings are plentiful. Lastly Scoop and Cookie the characters are usually there to take pictures with the kids. Mmmm, Freezing cold yogurt! Very good! Aside from the atmosphere of a cute 10 year old girl\'s bedroom, (read: "hot pink and lime green everything") the overall feeling of this new place was great! I would have LOVED the decor about 15 years ago, haha.\n\nI have to mention, for those of you out there who dislike being out-ordered like I do...make your decision carefully. With countless combinations, you are sure to have slight regret about what you ordered. I went this past weekend, and decided to go for a chocolate/coffee theme. I put espresso flavor on the bottom, chocolate yogurt on top of that, and a little sprinkle of dark chocolate bits. It was delicious! However, we then went outside and I noticed that my husband and my sister both went for the mango/tart combo...and as soon as I tasted the refreshing zing of fruit and tart, ugh, I was regretting the richness of my choice. My instincts said chocolate, but I had instant "yogurt-eater\'s remorse". Should have gone for the crisp summer flavor! Choose carefully fellow yelpers!

This is my favorite Chinese take out in Pittsburgh! You get huge portions for a great price and the food is never greasy. Quick delivery, big portions and good food. My family ate shrimp fried rice with very nice sized shrimp, General Tsao's chicken, cashew shrimp, and egg rolls. It was all very tasty for a night of take out! And I liked that I could order and pay online. Meh. The delivery was sort of quick. The sushi was edible but nothing special. Tasted like grocery store sushi and the fried tofu was awful. Soggy and came with way too sweet liquid oil or something. Won't order again. The food always arrives quickly. The avocado salad is so simple but it's always fresh and my absolute favorite. This was my favorite chinese food place to order delivery from my time living in Pittsburgh. It definitely gives the best bang for the buck, the portions are huge! Also they were very fast in delivering food.

I was excited to try this place as I had heard good things about America's from friends. Plus, having lost Baja I wanted a new place. What a disappointment! The place still looks like Baja Fresh but there the comparisons end. The food was meh. Plus having my food arrive minutes after my husband's and still be cold was kind of ridiculous. I think they actually forgot to prepare mine at first. Since there were only a few other customers there, there was no excuse. I should have known not to eat there because there were so few customers at noon. Baja used to be out the door at that time. \n\nBasically, you have four options for protein (beef, pork, chicken, and vegetables) and you can have it in a burrito, taco, vampire (tostada), or salad. The chicken had a sour taste altho it was supposed to be citrus and grilled. The carne asada was dry and flavorless. We didn't try the others, but don't really feel a need.\n\nMaybe the other locations of America's are better, but I probably won't even try. Chipotle it is! Everything I ordered was freshly made. Guacamole is excellent. I will be coming back for sure When I saw "America\'s" taco shop I thought it was meaning US, but to my surprise it\'s after the owner named America :) \n\nWhat a great surprise! It\'s quite authentic, the tortillas, the meats, the salsas, the menu items, even fresh Jamaica and horchata DELICIOUS! \n\nI wish they had more locations, I would eat here more often. Needless to say, when I\'m near by I stop by. I am a proponent of : If you do not have something nice to say - Say nothing at all. \n\nHowever - This boat is sinking and someone SOMEONE (an Owner preferably) .. America please read my review!! It is a cry for help. \n\nPlease fix this place. I REALLY want this to work out but - they NEVER have things gone well since they opened. Cold tacos - wrong orders - too long --- awkward service. \n\nI KNOW you can do better... because you are! The original location rocks. Is this some ploy to increase business at your original? OR has this been franchised out and the franchisee used to be in some other industry and thought one day "Im going to own a restaurant!" ... \n\nWhatever the origin of the problem. Just fix it. So that I dont have to pass this restaurant and drive to the 7th street location for a hot taco. \n\nHere is a to do list:\n\nStaff needs to smile. \nStaff needs training on how to answer the phone - guide the conversation and not sound surprised you\'d like to make an order for pick up. \nSense of urgency. \nHot food Hot - Cold food Cold. If the taco tortilla looks pasty white still - just let it cook a little longer - .... HOT .. \nDont give vegetarians chicken quesadillas. Its just wrong. \n\nI can come in as your consultant. Let me know ;) \n\nThanks. As the other reviewers have stated - this is NOT the same as the 7th St or 7th Ave location.\n\nFirst time in was the taco trio (al Pastor, carne asada, pollo asado) , elote (America's corn) and a large cochata (iced coffee mixed with horchata.) \nThe cochata was brilliant! My new favorite non alcoholic beverage. And the service was friendly. Those are the two stars.\nThe tacos were dull and bland. The corn was just plain sad. So many GOOD elote options in this town. So many decent elote options. So bummed this was mediocre at best.\n\nSecond visit was the same taco trio and large cochata. The pork and beef were a little better this time, the chicken was still super lame. The salsa is decent at best.\nAt least the cochata still hit the spot.\n\nThat said...there are so many good taquerias in the area. Where tacos of a similar size and better quality cost notably less. I don't see any reason to make it back to this sad little America's franchise.

Have eaten here numerous times and each time it has gotten worse than the time before.\nAte there recently with eight people. The food was unanimously TERRIBLE!\nThe service was non-caring. Staff keeps turning over.\nNo ownership or management was there.\nThe price have gone from reasonable to way too expensive for what you get. No Liquor License on Sunday...only Beer and Wine...ect\n\nCould be a great place with the correct management. Beautiful atmosphere..this place is missing the Big Boat$$$..very sparse menu..few choices..family owned and run for too long..need a corporate restaurant to come in a buy the place like Six Pence Pub..ect..6,000 people live in Sun City..Not to mention the epic growing Indian Land and this place is always 80% empty! Formerly the Blue Heron Grill, the Tavern by the Lake is under new management, has a new menu and new chef and kitchen crew.\n\nWe recently had a club dinner for the Old Stogies. It was sit-down and a set menu which ended up to be a refreshingly wonderful surprise. The New Years dinner was horrible, but we were overjoyed at just how good the Tavern could be.\n\nA wine distributor was brought in to give us information on the four wines accompanying our dinner and he was short and sweet in cluing us in and not giving us more information than we ever wanted.\n\nThe first course was a hot shrimp scampi which ended up to be lemony linguini topped with three shrimp. The shrimp were nothing to discuss but the linguine was simply delicious. The spices and the lemon made for a great appetizer.\n\nFollowing were ravioli "pillows" which we know from travel in Argentina as Sorrentinos. These were stuffed with four cheeses topped with a creamy vodka sauce. Simply wonderful and now the tables were talking about why these first two items were not on the regular menu.\n\nThe main course were short ribs atop mushroom risotto covered with a thick rich red wine sauce. Holy moly! Was this good and few could finish the portion served. The matching wine was heavy enough for the richness of this dish so it was a perfect match.\n\nCannoli drizzled with chocolate coupled with Prosecco wine finished the meal.\n\nSo if you are in or around Sun City and you think of the old Blue Heron, please think again. Something new is in town. I have eaten here several times in the past few years . A nice clean atmosphere to dine to include buffet events. The current chef aims to please and prepare food in a small limited kitchen.\n\nThe food from past and present chefs has improved but what lacks is the wait staff.\n\nThe somewhat limited menu offers foods such as a fish ,chicken and a steak dish, french onion soup, soup of the day, several salads and several appetizers.\nBasic easy desserts like brownies , cheesecake and ice cream \n\n Our meal from a few months ago was almost a turning point not to return. Our appetizers, soup salads plus main course all were served together after a 45 minute wait.The waitress had to be asked to refill our waters. As we were eating, she laid our checks on the table never asking if we wanted dessert or coffee.\nOur dining mates said the food was okay ( fried fish special, a grilled steak, soup , salad) , all nothing special though food was brought out hot and plated nicely.\n\nIn the past we attended a private party in a separate private rented room.\n6 pm dinner turned into an 8 pm dinner because one of the wait staff that was hired for the party was removed to the main dining room to help with restaurant dinner service.\n\nHowever we have in the past enjoyed buffet meals and dinners here.\nSo even though our experiences have been varied with inconsistency of quality and wait staff service, we would certainly try another time.\n\nThe new chef we met has a challenge using the small limited kitchen that probably was never intended for extensive culinary preparation. He intends to improve menu choices etc.\n\nStand by for future updates because we will try some future meals again\nUpdate: from 3 to 4 stars rating.\nWe have recently eaten here and invited out for karaoke night , an event which used to be a regular feature at Tavern on the Lakes . The place was packed . We were surprised that we had attentive waitress service since in the past service was an issue not so much the food . \nThe food was very good and tasty, came out in good portions, nicely plated, and hot. However, whatever was ordered such as salad, appetizer and entree all came out at the same time .\nThe noise level here was so loud it was hard to talk with each-other at the table .\nMenu prices reasonable, beer and wine menu, overall more menu choices added.\n We did enjoy ourselves and probably would return again.\nUPDATE: May 2018 now 5 stars. we have eaten here again, last year and this year for Passover Seder and most recently for Mother's Day Brunch. Buffets all good. Hard to please everyone but something for everyone. Salad, potato, green vegetable brisket just to name a few at March's buffet. Brisket at buffet in March tender but very salty for many tastes. Desserts usually berries and whip cream and macaroon cookies.\nToday's Mothers day buffet, one of the best so far : deviled eggs, chicken salad in croissants, waffles, quiches \nbacon, green salad, baked salmon, roast beef with, mushroom gravy, steamed broccoli and carrots, sour cream coffee cake, and a beautiful dessert table just to name the highlights.\nFood was tasty and hot. Salmon tender, beef mostly tender, neither over salted. Chicken salad delish.\nEverything cooked and baked on the premises.\nThe 4 of us thought the coffee cake was the best pastry, tender and moist\n Wait staff efficient and accommodating.\nPrice with tax and gratuity about $32 per person.\nFood displayed nicely, hot food served hot.\nAll in all a wonderful buffet. Most recent photos taken today on main page of Tavern on The Lakes Unfortunately this review will not be glowing with praise. First, our waitperson was unfriendly,to say the least. Seemed as if she would rather have been somewhere else. Food was mediocre. Whoever the manager of this place is needs to realize that just because you are onsite to a senior community there are many other places to eat that seem to be much more receptive to their clientele. Pricing here is fairly average but one thing I noticed was an up charge to split a plate. And then our waitperson said everyone around here does it. NOT TRUE! \n It is my understanding that the owners of the golf course also own the Tavern. Guess that says a lot cause they don't care about how the staff in pro shop treats residents here. \n Needless to say, I will be limiting my dining in this establishment to very few or none. Not that I think anyone cares.

A few friends and I recently came here over Memorial Day Weekend for a cabana. Finding the pool was a bit difficult, but they did have a couple of signs within the casino that helped. It's located on the rooftop of the first hotel tower, up the escalators and down the first hallway on the left. We ended up parking in the Downtown Grand self park garage and got our parking validated at the Players Club desk which was nice.\n\nThe pool itself was nice, different from the usually 2-3 ft pools on the strip. It was infinity style and a decent size to accommodate everyone. Besides the pool they had some games on the desk area like beer pong, foosball ball and bags which was cool. Seating wise, besides reserving a cabana, it didn't seem like there was a ton of available seating and it was first come first serve. As for music they had a DJ who played the violin which was interesting. She played mainly edm and some 80's rock, fitting for downtown.\n\nFor food and drinks the prices were expensive as expected, but not terrible. I ordered the Chips & Guac as an app for $12. The flavor was awesome and it was a decent portion. For a drink I ended up getting the lemon souvenir cup because I thought it was adorable. It was around $45 for the initial cocktail and $20 for refills. They also had bottles available for purchase, around $300 for a bottle of Grey Goose. (Much cheaper than Strip day clubs) They also had complementary citrus water sitting out for grabs and provided a fruit tray along with our cabana. \n\nOverall I had an enjoyable experience and would come back again. We had a blast. Place was very clean lots of open room Clarissa I think was the bartender she was great all weak we where there kept the servers amazing and the miller light coming 2nd time there this year love everything about this place will be back Great pool and area. If you are not a fan of overcrowded pools this is usually the one. Because of the location, and the reasonable room rates, it's a mixed bag of kids, families, locals and tourists (that can all be good or bad). $30 buckets (6 beers). Service could be better. Our server didn't know if they sold sunscreen when we asked, and never checked. We had to go to the bar and find out that they did. She also said that you couldn't mix the beers in the bucket - 1st I've ever heard of this (domestic-domestic)..we didn't argue. We will definitely be back, just hope for better service. Had a great time! Payed the local 15$ price to get in, but it comes with one complimentary drink ticket. Also, it seems like depending on who you get at the front you can get in for free. \n\nOrdered fish tacos for lunch nothing to complain about they were very good :) also got some caramel chocolate ice cream with a mini biscotti on top and at only 3$ I wanted to try more flavors! \n\nAll in all thought it was a surprisingly affordable fun day! The cocktail waitress's service skills were kind of lagging(had to hunt her down to order anything) , and it took her a couple tries to get the check right ,but she was the only one working the whole pool so ill cut her a break. Perfect crowd for someone like me with a varied age group and types of people. Only reason I'm giving minus one star is because the flat bread I ordered off of the happy hour menu had ZERO taste. It looked nice but the sauce was completely tasteless. I haven't tried anything else.

Food quality comparable to that of a public high school cafeteria....not a good one. This place continues to go downhill. Service is slow and food is below average. It used to be much better. What happened? My friends and I visit the Suncoast once a year and eat here frequently. Not because it's good, but because it's convenient and reasonably priced. The service is nothing short of laughable - no seriously, we break into fits of giggles at least once each visit because of how comically bad the service is. Not to say that the waitstaff isn't nice, they are always exceptionally nice - just not good. Service is SLOW so don't come if you're in a rush. There's a decent chance you'll be completely forgotten about as soon as you're seated.\n\nThe menu is extensive and oddly varied - ranging from traditional American fare to Chinese/Asian selections. I am most familiar with their breakfasts, which are decent and largely portioned.\n\nFor lunch one day last week I tried the matzoh ball soup and while the matzoh balls were light and fluffy, the broth was over salted and the addition of mushy noodles was both unneeded and puzzling.\n\nLastly, while the restaurant is no-smoking, there are no walls separating it from the casino so be ready to breath in cigarette smoke with every bite. Not sure if this is the same location because my receipt shows this cafe name with only one N in Siena.\nRegardless, this is located inside the Suncoast Casino. Beautiful west side of town, with views of the strip. Great place to go to during the middle of the week, which we did. Less crowded and better service.\n\nI went with the Tuna Melt, which was very good as far as tuna melts go. My wife went with something called Crispy Tofu. These are deep fried sticks of tofu. Though I would have preferred a thinner batter, they weren't bad. If they had a way of grilling the tofu, I would have ordered it myself. Well, my wife didn't finish them, but they did make good leftovers.\n\nOverall, good service and food. But do yourself a favor; if smoking bothers you, which it does us, ask to sit in the back of the restaurant, as it is close to the casino. Worst food I have had in Vegas. Prime Rib ordered Medium rare came out well done. Service was very slow. Took 20 more minutes to get a burger done. The only reason I gave 1 star was because the manager comped the meal. Won't go back there again.

Just got my food from this place. It is inedible. Chicken not cooked. Vegetables not cut. It is like everyone there has given up on life. I would give it negative points if I could. -10000000 I got the "today\'s special" which is pretty much "everydays special." General Tsao chicken with rice, and either a pop or mixed veggies for $5.99.\nIt comes in a big take out container and the portion looks pretty decent, a nice bed of rice and a pile of general Tsao.\nUpon eating this, I noticed that the chicken was quite chewy and the texture didn\'t seem quite right. As I cut into each piece to see, they were mostly just chunks of deep fried batter. In my entire dish, I would say that I had maybe 5 bite sizes pieces of true chicken, and the rest of the entire general Tsao was just oversized fried batter.\nVery disappointing. I don\'t recommend getting the "today\'s special" I definitely feel very weird giving this place a 3-star rating when everyone else seems to have had a 1-star experience, but I honestly really like this place! Yes it has it's faults (hence the 3 star rating), but I am a returning customer. I've never gotten sick like other reviewers have, portions are very generous, and price is quite competitive for the downtown core. This place is located underground in Atrium on Bay, so you can walk underground from Dundas or the Eaton Centre to get here. It's located right across from my school where I also used to work during the summer, so I come here year round at least once or twice a month.\n\n99% of the time, I will get their special (which they have every day). It's a very generous portion of fried rice, general tao chicken, and your choice of veggies (I always get the veggies) or pop for $5.99. You cannot beat that price anywhere near this area! Portions used to be bigger about a year or so ago, but it's still enough for me to have leftovers for lunch the next day. The chicken is not spicy like general tao usually is, and the veggies consist of cabbage, broccoli, and zucchini. It's more of a sweet (albeit, tasteless) chicken that's heavily battered. The one time I got something different, it was flat rice noodles with chicken. There wasn't much chicken in that order, but a lot of noodles. All those heavy noodles quickly filled me up, which I guess was okay because that also meant I had lots leftover for lunch the next day!\n\nI find service to be quite sweet. I ordered off Grabb or Ritual (I can't remember which) once and when I went to pick up my order, they complimented me on my profile picture which is linked to my account. You can also ask to sample their meats and veggies. This place is definitely bang for your buck! The food is delicious with very generous portions Good value for the price. Perfect when you need something cheap and filling. Usually very fast service too The cashier was pleasant - but the amount of beef I got with a Styrofoam container of bleached noodles was pathetic. There was SO LITTLE meat that I made the mistake of going back to buy a separate order of chicken.\n\nBIG MISTAKE.\n\n10 hours after I ate their bland food - I woke with a feeling of lead in my stomach. Then I spent much of the next hour on the toilet.\n\nI don't want to gross you out - but liquid was spewing out of me like a fire hose for many visits during a very unpleasant hour.\n\nI felt nauseous - but the explosion from where you shouldn't explode from was the worst.\n\nDON'T make the mistake I made of eating from this place.\n\nYou've been warned.

I was seeing a show at the Rio so wanted to eat somewhere in this hotel, and comparatively, it seems like a decent bet. I looked over all the options, and this looked like a big menu and a classy atmosphere.\n\nIt\'s unfortunate their menu isn\'t online, but luckily other Yelpers took pics of the menu. It was a little confusing, like under "scallops" they have sauteed scallops and under "sizzling" they had sizzling scallops, so it\'s hard to tell with no descriptions what the differences are.\n\nI had the shrimp and vegetables and my boyfriend at the scallops and vegetables, which were both fresh and filling even though it doesn\'t look like a ton of food. The dishes ranged from $17-$20. It cost a couple dollars extra to get rice. The service was okay. At the end we waited a while then flagged down another waiter to ask them to let our waitress know we needed the check (we had a show to get to).\n\nI was on fence between 3 and 4. It seems like a decent option for restaurants in this hotel, but if I compared it to non-Vegas restaurants, the food didn\'t blow me away. It was serviceable. Pricey, mediocre at best.\nHomemade potstickers are OK, not amazing.\nClams with ginger-scallion sauce are good quality, but the sauce is a too oily and unappealingly thick and not usable as a sauce you would actually eat on your rice. If you must, get the black bean sauce and request 'low oil'. You'll probably get 'high saliva' ha ha ;)\nHouse Lo Mein comes out kind of oily as well. Again, ask for 'low oil' if you gotta get it.\n\nManagement is a bit odd, a holdover trait from the original Spring Mountain Road location where you get a completely different menu w/no specials (and a fork) if you don't speak Chinese.\n\nDim Sum here is pretty average - it may even make you realize that you don't actually like Dim Sum. Kind of like jazz. We're told that it's good and that we should appreciate it, but the nuts of it are that it kind of sucks. Eating lukewarm food that was cooked 5 hours ago off of a rolling cart is just dumb.\n\nIf you're hankering for Chinese and are staying in the Rio, you're probably better off hitting the Rio Buffet and at least getting some crab legs out of the deal. \n\nFree tea is cool. Good on them. I was expecting to get snuck for at least $2 per tea drinker, but didn't. Used to come here every time I visited Vegas but somehow never left a review. Back in the day I'd have a comp and always thought the food tasted much better when it was free or at least prepaid if you know what I'm saying... it is in the city of lost wages! \n\nBack in the day this place would be alway packed especially on a going home Sunday. This time around my group of 10 were seated and served quickly.\n\nThe dim sum carts came by and we were eating almost immediately. We were seated in a section with a TV which was great since we all had placed our sports bets and were anxious to see if we were going to enjoy a free or expensive meal. Lol \n\nThe selection was endless and the freshness was obvious. From the xlbs to the Chinese Broccoli and even the chicken feet, everything was on point.\n\nI noticed the steam coming off of each entree as the staff pushed along all the tasty options.\n\nEventually we had about 20 different items and the table started to look like an advertisement for the place with so much color.\n\nWith help of the lazy Susan my group came hungry and left happy without breaking the bank.\n\nLet's just say my executive decision to have brunch here instead of at the buffet or even at hash house was the best decision of the weekend.\n\nWe were ready to head home after an epic bachelor party weekend.\n\nI know I'll be back for sure when I visit again.\n\nThanks KJ see you soon. So I usually am one who likes to prove other reviews wrong, but unfortunately I have to agree with my fellow yelpers. I had roast duck and expected quite more for a casino restaurant. My duck was soaked with water and wasn't cooked thorough enough for the meat to fall off the bone. Sorry, but duck isn't that hard to cook.\n\nMy second opinion is that of the staff. They speak very broken English and it was very hard to communicate about what was on the menu. I had to make an uninformed decision on what to order, because nobody could understand me. I also felt rushed to order.\n\nMy iced tea tasted stale and was never offered refills. I came here with another couple and we felt somewhat ignored.\n\nMy final complaint was that when the entrees did come, they came separate which is rude for guests who are trying to enjoy each other's company. Fortunately, I will not be coming back. Had dinner at KJ dimsum & Seafood before going to Penn & Teller when our scheduled dinner choice was unexpectedly closed. Pleasantly surprised, nice setting, despite being across from the Carnival World Buffet. Menu had good breadth of selections, quick and good attentive service, excellent value (cheapest meal we had while in Las Vegas!) Food was excellent. I'll have to come back and try the dimsum too.

My boyfriend surprised me one saturday and drove me out to Jake's. He had never been there before and was excited to try it. Once again, the food was fantastic. We ordered a wedge salad to split and they split it for us in the kitchen and brought us our own little portions. PERFECT! He got a burger (all the way) that was amazing. I tried the tuna salad and it was fantastic. If you're a sweet tea fan, I recommend trying it! Yummo. The Oyster Po Boy is the Bomb!! \nI was down in NC and had lunch here. The restaurant lives up to its great reputation. Very good. Had the shrimp po boy and pasta salad for lunch. I am looking forward to going back. Yum!!! Jake's def has some good eats! We tried this place today with a Groupon....and already said we'd be back after only the appetizer!\n\nTo start Spinach dip....fresh homemade tortillas-soooo good! Tons of flavor.\n\nNext, wedge salads. Delicious flavorful homemade blue cheese dressing!\n\nThen, pork plate. Was good, hubby loved the sauce, I loved the chips and homemade ranch!\n\nLastly, peach cobbler. Hubby loved it, I like a more crunchy version.\n\nEverything is and tastes super fresh and homemade! Cute, small atmosphere. We will be back! I've never had anything but an excellent meal at Jake's. The 3 of us had filets and they were cooked to perfection.

Located inside the Madison Concourse Hotel, this is a great intimate bar with not only good drinks but also some bar bites.\n\nI've been here a few times with some new friends I've made during my visit here in Madison.\n\nEnjoy! The service in the bar both times was attentive with drinks and water being refreshed on a regular basis. Whether or not they are busy just depends on the day and the hour but both times I\'ve been there in recent history it wasn\'t crowded and the groups I was with could talk and easily hear one another. The menu is small but it was just right for sharing with others at the table. Some soups, salads, "snacks", and sandwiches as well as cheese and meat spread options. I had a delish carrot soup and shared the beet salad and chicken flat bread. It was just right and all very good. I\'m on he fence about whether the higher prices are worth it but after a holiday martini I would say that \'yes\' it was worth it! Great out-of-the-way bar. Happy hour from 4-6 with $3 beer specials. Order a specialty drink or wine and you can get an appetizer for $6. It's a one-for $6 deal but if you're with a group, you can each get a drink/wine and order something to share.\nThe artichoke dip is good and has a bit of a bite, although my palette is very susceptible to heat. So most people will probably not even notice. The cheese plate is awesome! A 10 year cheddar, a Bleu, and a gouda(?), with small crostini and a small ramekin of sweeter, spicy mustard. (that I didn't try but I'm taking the word of one brave member of our party) The meatballs were very good, not too much spice. Tasty, and not over-cooked, with excellent crusted bread slices to help clean up the sauce.\nThe wine list is not extensive (at least by the glass), and a bit unassuming, but there's at least something for everyone. I had a decent Cabernet Sauvignon but probably would have enjoyed the Male more.\nNot very far from Overture Center, we were here on a week-night when Wicked was playing and the bar was not crowded at all. Just the way you expect a quintessential hotel bar to be. I know where I'm going before my next Overture event. This place is great. Sliders. Fried pickles. Deviled eggs. Really really good for a hotel bar. The best grilled cheese I have ever had! I added chicken & bacon. The old fashioned the bartender made was wonderful too- top 5 ever! Service was excellent! All around a great experience & one of the best hotel restaurants/bars in terms of food & drinks I've been to in a long time!

Bistro on Jane has great potential. \n\nI had a burger and fries with a salad, and really enjoyed it (the burger was a homemade patty, homemade bun, and super fresh salad). The owners are very nice, took time to get to talk to us, and introduce themselves. They also mentioned that they make their own bread, soups, and other goodies. \n\nThe hours at the moment aren't great (open at 11, close at 6 on weekdays, and closed on Sunday), so that pretty much rules out dinner visits for me, as they're closed by the time I get home from work. However, the owners mentioned that they're still trying to figure out their client\xc3\xa8le and the best hours for the area. They did just add a student's menu for the high school across the street.\n\nI really enjoyed my meal and the atmosphere when I went the first time - looking forward to trying it again soon when they've had some time to settle into the neighbourhood. Had the very fortunate opportunity to have a catered dinner from this fantastic restaurant at J&C Bistro - The Bistro on Jane at a friends house this past Saturday....OMG! Everything was to die for! I'm a HUGE #foodie and I know how to make great food too, but this lady's food was amazing!\n\nMy friend who is a food developer for a major grocery store, hint...(MAJOR Family company that makes President products), was blown away with this place too! Lemon Bars, coconut cakes, and the lasagna was the bomb! Organic meat sauce, fresh homemade lasagna noodles, proper bechamel sauce, and oodles of cheese...made for a great lasagna take out!\n\nApparently, she had another shop outside of the city too, and moved to Toronto. Her brunch is amazing too according to my friends! Great prices, and I heard that the french toast is made with homemade brioche bread, and there's amazing crepes....sign me up! Looking forward to going to the restaurant if their take out was this good! We stopped for lunch on a snowy Saturday. I had a burger and Henry had a burrito. They were both delicious and made from scratch. They even gave us some coconut tarts for later which were the best tarts! Bistro on Jane just opened. Well, it opened a week ago, but there was construction out front, so you wouldn't have known - unfortunately.\n\nJust outside the Page Ave. Stop on the 55 or 35 bus from Jane station, Bistro on Jane offers something you wouldn't expect in this location. Quality food.\n\nThey're not a fast food restaurant - even if they do sell burgers and fries. The burgers are all made fresh - and even the buns are baked on site. Everything down to the Greek salad dressing is original, and only available here at this location.\n\nFor $9.99 I walked away stuffed. The banquet burger was fantastic, the aforementioned Greek Salad, one of my favourites. And the fries? It was a delightful mix of regular fries, and thinly sliced potato ovals. \n\nAs an added bonus, the husband and wife team that runs this place seem charming, too. Stopped by today for a late lunch with my teen son. I had the Cuban bean soup and my son the student cheeseburger and fries special. My son loved the fries and burger ("it\'s the best burger I\'ve had that wasn\'t homemade"), and the soup came in a huge bowl and was very flavourable, especially once I added the salsa that was included (tasted like a strong chimichurri). The owner was very nice and even added a small serving of fries to my dish to try along with a coconut tart/muffin for desert. This place has a ton of choices from crepes and burritos to exotic burgers (camel, anyone?) and soups. Can\'t wait to go again.

Friendly staff, good chicken...sides a bit dry. The bathroom smelled so bad it made me not want to eat. That's NOT ok. I would recommend fixing that at once, major turn off. Our family always has a fun time when we visit here. The staff is nice and\nthey serve quickly. Have no trouble using our coupons here.\n\nFood is very good. Nice selection. Wish they had fish I love Boston Market and especially the rotisserie chicken and always have! If I could I would eat it every day, but alas, the nearest BM to us is too far. I was happy though to be in the neighbourhood and enjoy their chicken and corn muffins. \nI especially liked this location cause the staff was great! They helped me get the food to the table and then cleaned the table when we were done. I remember coming here quite often when I lived near. The food is always great every time. I especially like the buy one get one free Saturday promotion. It was always a given that Saturday's were Boston Market days. The staff is very nice and you have a way of developing great customer to staff relationships with the group there. They are all so nice. Highly recommend this place. This restaurant is pretty clean and fast. They are frequently out of some of their menu selections however. Location is convenient. They only serve one size soda which is like 20 oz and its priced at 1.99. You may just want to bring your own.:( \nService is so-so to good based on the dozens of times I've stopped in.

Margaritas were great, as usual. Service was sub par. Hostess seemed awkward and disinterested. Our server was OK, but a little too terse and didn't smile much. Bartender seemed irritated to be there, didn't say anything when he approached the table with our drinks and didn't smile. He did say thank you when we left. Brunch review:\nOur table ordered the Hit the Trail Flapjacks and the Corn Quesadilla.\nFlapjacks: We've eaten a lot of pancakes in Madison, and these rank among some of the most novel. They contain lots of seeds, nuts, and dried fruits, as well as topped with red chile butter (TBH, couldn't taste the red chile aspect much). Excellent.\nQuesadilla: Really liked the fact that it was made with a yellow corn tortilla rather than a standard flour tortilla. Black beans also rounded it out nicely. \n\nDinner: Sorry to say I don't have a distinct memory of dinner, ate their quite a while ago. However, my companion and I both remember that the meat quality seemed higher than most other BBQ meals. However, I could have sworn that they said their BBQ pork came from Jordandal farms. Now I don't see that anywhere on the menu.\n\nOverall we enjoyed our meal and will come back. Eldorado has the best margaritas I've had in Madison. Tex Tubb's is a close second, but Eldorado is the best. Check out their happy hour, the drinks are cheaper! You can even get discounts on neat pours of their amazing tequila selection.\n\nI've been here quite a few times and never been disappointed. The drinks are great, the staff is wonderful, and the food is fantastic.\n\nThe brunch deserves its own paragraph. It's my favorite brunch in town. Good drinks and wonderful tex-mex food. I'm reading a 3-star review on the sidebar as I write this and I can't believe it. Someone complaining about no free chips and salsa (they're really cheap), the queso (which we've ordered twice and the waitstaff always explained was not normal queso) and the lack of frozen margaritas... seriously? If you want cheap, by-the-numbers big-box type mexican, go to Pedro's. This restaurant is for people that enjoy good food and drinks.\n\nSorry, back to the brunch. I've had half a dozen items off the brunch menu and loved every one. If you come here on Sunday morning, you might want to make a reservation because everyone knows what a great brunch they have and they all come on Sunday. \n\nIt's a bit more expensive than your average Mexican or Tex-Mex place, but the quality of the food, drinks, and service is well worth it. Breakfast is the bomb.com! Great atmosphere, service is wonderful! Food is delicious, bacon blueberry pancakes are amazingggg and so are their breakfast margaritas! GO HERE FOR BRUNCH! Won't regret promise :) we came in late-ish one rainy evening for dinner, after a friend highly recommended it. the place was virtually empty but it still took ages for us to be seated. \n\ni ordered the grilled lobster, shrimp and crab enchiladas and was fairly disappointed by the lack of flavor. i don't remember what my boyfriend ordered, but he had a similar issue with his dish. the service was extra slow during our whole meal, and the waitress didn't even bother to refill my water. \n\nfor the price, you should definitely get better food and service.

Put this place on your cheap eats list people!\nPortion to Price ratio is awesome!\n\nWe came here for lunch because of the advertisement coupon for $5 off a $10+ bill (we aren't cheap we are frugal!) \n\nWe got 4 soft tacos\n2carne asana\n1 carnitas\n1 chicken\nTaquitos\nCarne asada fries\nThe bill came out to a little over $12.00 after the coupon!\n\n\n\nThe carne asada as really dry and kibble-ish in both dishes. The carne asada fries were chocked loaded with cheese and pico. They used a battered type of french fry which kinda threw me off from normal french fries (which I prefer)\nThe carnitas and shredded chicken tacos were great! Both were moist and full of flavor. The stars of our lunch!\n\nI'd dare to give this place 4 stars but I have to take a star away because the salsa bar was horrendous and in dire need of attention. The salsa levels were all low and there were plastic cups and lids in every bin. Thank goodness we didn't need any salsa since the carne asada fries and tacos were loaded with pico. \n\nFor the price, taste an portion size this is a good alternative to those taco chain guys down the road. Good food, GREAT prices! My usual place is Robertos (like the most of us), but I thought I would give this place a try. It's cheaper than Robertos and they give a ton of food! Foot long burritos? I mean, c'mon! I got the char-chicken tacos and they were delicious. Also, the food here is less greasy and very fresh tasting. \n\nI would say the only downside would be how long the drive-thru wait is. So be prepared for a good 15 minute wait; and that's only if there's one car in front of you. Watered down drinks - not enough meet in the quesadillas - way over priced for being Robertos type quality. It's one of my favorite Mexican spots to eat at!\n\n$3.99 foot long burrito is awesome. The taco platters are good too!\n\nThey have authentic Mexican food, at a very good price!\n\nI've dined in, used the drive through, and ordered ahead. Each time my food is fresh and delicious!\n\nI recommend this place to any Mexican Food lover! This place is A-OK due to the extreme value. You can certainly find more delicious, more authentic Mexican food around the Vegas valley. However, you may not be able to find flavorful, decent food that fills you up (twice) and doesn't get you sick for $4 to $5.\n\nI had a wet carne asada burrito. It was good. I only ate half. Very filling. \n\nI'm not sure we will go back...but if you are hungry and short on cash, this place will meet your needs.

Horrible! Menu had basically nothing on it, nothing my daughter, niece and nephew would eat! They decided they didn\'t want to eat there, so the lady gave me a bill for $20.82 for 3 kids drink and a margarita, which they hardly even drank, Joke! Good customer service, would have comped the drinks with out a bill! I was told to come back in a few weeks for the "full" menu that wasn\'t out yet?! So why charge me for all the drinks then tell me to come back in a few weeks? Maybe they shouldn\'t have opened till they were completely ready! For sure won\'t be back! Best authentic Mexican food in Akron, OH! Both locations are excellent (near Tallmadge on Darrow and this location in the Valley).\n\nI recently moved from Northern California, where I enjoyed many kinds of Mexican food at the copious taquerias, food trucks, and burrito joints there. La Loma and the little Mexican market at the Darrow location feel like a little piece of NorCal. They even serve the sweet rice-milk drink, "horchata," there, and you can buy it (concentrated) in the market, too! I have a hard time writing this review because I truly LOVE la loma\'s food. Some of the best authentic Mexican food I have ever had. I\'ve never had a complaint with the food and whatever those chefs are doing please keep it up! You\'re fantastic. \n\nHowever, while the food is a 5 the service is a zero. I\'ve never been in a restaurant where I\'ve blatantly been ignored the entire time. We were sitting at the bar often face to face with a worker who acted like we weren\'t there. We weren\'t offered water or menus (we had to ask for both.) I never once had my water refilled without me asking for it (when the bartender is LITERALLY 6 inches away from my empty cup) and we had to ask for more chips and salsa. My two tacos took over a half hour as well which i thought was excessive. But the flavor made it worth the wait. \n\nWe also had to sit in front of what had to be the most irritating bar tender. She sat with Tostitos chips and salsa and ate behind the bar and would leave the bag of chips and the jar of salsa out. I don\'t care how laid back of a place it is, don\'t bring party food to eat on the job? Seems like common sense? I also had to listen to her trash talk other costumers with a few of the other servers. She even said to the two ladies next to us "I don\'t care what any costumers think of me I can do whatever I want." If any management is reading this, this bar tender was pregnant. Never caught her name.\n\nTo top it off we waited for a half hour for our checks and during that whole time we weren\'t spoken to. Our bartender never returned but we caught glimpses of her eating in a back room, we had to ask for our check from someone else, then the card machine was down for about 10 minutes and we never got an apology for that either.\n\nThe service needs to rise up to meet the quality of the food. Fire the entire staff and hire people who actually care about working there. I want this place to succeed so badly, but something needs to change first. La Loma has some if the best Mexican food in OhIo hands down. The torta de cesina, the tamales, the delicious guacamole, all of it is fantastic. Ohio is plagued by terrible Mexican -- the scene is dismal but La Loma is making it a little better one taco at a time! I'm from LA and these tacos are the closest to what I used to eat out there.Their corn tortillas that don't fall apart and the flavor of the meat is great! I judge places by their rice and they got really good Mexican rice. I normally get the lengua,cabeza and carne asada. I recommend this place!

The cannolis, the cannolis!!!\n\nIt's like making love in your mouth.... Okay I'm exaggerating a tad bit, but wow cannolis here are amazing. They were gone in a jiffy! \n\nGreat local family run Italian bakery with very welcoming staff. Tons of food, if anything you must walk out with a cannoli. - spotted this place for Kingston road next to the pizza pizza \n- discovered this wonderful Italian deli with a non stop stream of people coming in for sandwiches and other goodies\n- make sure you grab a canolli. A must. Without a lot of competition, it's an easy choice, but even if there were 10 other Italian bakeries in the same plaza, I'd still come here. Amazing treats! Every time company's coming, I head here to pick up fresh canoli and biscotti, but go early so there's still some left! This place is so delicious. The pastries, baked goods, sandwiches, and deli meats and cheeses are delicious. My favorite things would have to be the cannolis and the rice balls, although the tirimisu is delicious as well. Definitely a hidden gem in ajax! The orignial is in Toronto - and boy is the Ajax one just as good. Great sandwiches too. Excellent desserts and coffee\'s ....it is VERY busy during the weekends - but I never had to wait - they are very organized.\n\nThe desserts are really good European quality - with topnotch ingredients.\n\nI tried their Shrimp Cake and Fish Cake - the cod fish cake we found to be more to our liking. The Shrimp has a nice hot kick to it - not too hot kind of more like paprika "hot".\n\nIts nice having a lovely bakery nearby - the kind you usually find in downtown Toronto - and makes for a good place to pick up goodies if you having guests over.\n\nGood quality\nGood prices\nBusy place - but service is fast and efficient\nParking lots of it in the mall

Before I get to anything else about this restaurant I have to give a huge shout out to the staff here. From the moment we walked through the door they were friendly, inviting, and helpful. And the whole time we were there they did everything they could to make the visit a great one. They even thanked us for coming out and giving them a try. \nAnd the place was nice and clean. The restaurant itself was immaculate. And even the bathroom appeared regularly tended to - along with nice polite signs posted to let people know how to behave in them. \nI liked the food too. We had a souvlaki wrap, the 1/3 lb cheeseburger, fries, and drinks. I only had a bite of the souvlaki, but it was amazing. I honestly think this is what I'm going to get next time! The burger was good, but I wouldn't call it great. Good size, and tasty, but the bun was a little wrong for the burger (a larger bakery bun that didn't give too well to the teeth, so biting it tended to squeeze all the toppings out of the burger), and it was a little short on toppings. Lots of sauces to make it messy, but I had asked for extra extra tomato, and got two small slices. \nFries were just everyday frozen Crispy Coated ones. Cooked well enough, but I'm always a fan of having fresh made fries. Especially in a place that talked about making a lot of the other things themselves. \nWith great staff, a nice place, and some pretty good food choices, we're already making plans to go back. One of the BEST Sandwich Burger and Chicken ever could have in Toronto BYTES Burgers n' Fries - TM So delicious food and friendly environment with excellent customer service plus magnificent LOCATION , right in front of high school and Major McKenzie rd. I recommend to every one try it . Many of my friends enjoy the food at this location, , I had many times delicious juicy burger with sesame seed toasted bun and chicken souvlaki on a pita as well. I really enjoyed it.my friend not only order burger also had fish also , he enjoyed the food as well. \npeople were lined up to order but I got so fast service, restaurant is so clean with fantastic interior furniture,and nice environment and very large glass view all around.\nI recommend to every one try it Great burger place. Tons of ways to customize your burger, the fries are to die for and the prices are reasonable. I've been there twice now and will definitely be returning. Customer service is also great they make you feel at home. Small tip: go there from 12-1 as it is next to the highschool and can get busy outside of that time frame during lunch hours. If you're looking for cheap, delicious food while being served with perfect customer service, look no further! BYTES is a small family owned shop that serves burgers, fries and lots of greek infusion dishes. \n\nI always come here for their crispy fries with just the right amount of seasoning. There must be some secret seasoning they use because I simply cannot get enough of it! If you're craving a burger, be sure to try some of their crazy burgers with 2 or 3 patties. \n\nWhen the owners serve the burgers they have an array of toppings and condiments you can apply to your burger. You HAVE TO ask for the BYTES sauce because it adds so much to every bite you take. \n\nOverall, the customer service is what differentiates BYTES from other competitors. As a student, it is hard to feel welcomed into a restaurant but here, the employees care a lot for what all their customers have to say. Props to you guys!! I came here with my boyfriend on a Tuesday afternoon, way passed the hour of the school across the street so it wasn't busy at all. \n\nI ordered the fish and chips and my boyfriend got the chicken souvlaki on a pita.\n\nThe fish was okay, the batter on it was quite thick. As for the fish itself it was very flakey, not sure if it was fresh or frozen. But the fries they put their own seasoning on them and it was finger licking good! Also their homemade tartar sauce is one of the best I've ever had!!! \n\nThe chicken souvlaki was pretty good, the chicken was still moist and flavourful. The tzatziki sauce was okay, I didn't think it was as flavourful as opa. But than again I only had a byte (pun intended hahaha)\n\nOverall it was a good experience, I'd come again for lunch. And I do know the owner does read reviews! A young lady walked in and he thanked her for the review she wrote.

I've never been to the actual location or even seen it but I've ordered delivery from here twice and it is great! \nThe food is fresh and tastes exactly how I crave it to taste, which is important to me with Chinese food. I ordered from another place in between both my orders from here and that place was such a major let down that I was ashamed in myself for not ordering from here. The other place offered a coupon that pulled me in but this place pulls me in by the food alone, without coupons! From what I can tell, this place is slightly cheaper than other nearby places with the same rating also.\nYou can get a lot of food from here for $30-$40. I usually order something from each meat category, and then a chow mien and crab puffs. Comes with rice, so you don't need to order that separate. They are located like a mile and a half down the road from me so delivery is pretty quick as well and all the food containers are in a cardboard box thing that makes it easier to carry vs the other place that gave me my food in a messy crappy paper bag that could barely hold everything. Also the delivery guy is very nice.\nDefinitely my go to for Chinese delivery! And you can order online! Got really sick eating the shrimp fried rice. Up all night. I Won't be back. I got really sick it was not fun at all. \n\nThe service was OK. The place is very basic and simple. One thing I don't like is places that want a tip when you don't have a waiter or waitress. From a distance you may overlook this place, dont make that mistake. It is tucked in between Subway and a hair salon. \nMy family and I have eaten here many, many times, probably 30. I like that I can call and place my order and go pick it up because if you walk in and place your order you may wait five -fifteen minutes. The wait is worth it because they cook everything to order. \nTheir food is really good and it\'s not just my opinion, my two (sometimes picky) children ask to eat here. \nThe staff is a little "hurry up what you want" type energy but I suppose it is because they are anticipating more food orders. \nIf you want a nice sit down restaurant atmosphere, this may not be your place. Yes, there are tables to sit but the ambience is more of a fast food seating set up. In other words great to call ahead and pick your food up great food but if you looking for a place to take clients to sit down with a business meeting probably not this place. I visited on December 22nd, 2015. The interior is interesting, as it has a mirror (I almost walked into the mirror believing it was extra seating). The staff behind the counter is very friendly. The Chinese food is tasty and I admire how generous the portions are. Unfortunately, their boba drinks do not consist of tea, but like most other places, liquid (water or milk), ice, and powder. The food was delicious and good portion the stars are for the service the people that where here are so impatient. I am new here moved here from Cali so I was psyched to find a Chinese food place so mind you when I got here I had to take a while to check the menu, then once I got the food I asked for soy sauce and hot sauce and this lady has the nerve to lie to me and say there in the bag good thing I checked before leaving I would of been really upset to get home and see that I had no sauce not good service

In the category of vegetarian restaurants, I feel this place deserve a five stars for their food.\nI had low expectation for this type of imitation meat restaurants, but this place did it well. The steamed dishes were great, highly recommend the stewed beef with daikon dish. The imitation fish on the fried noodles was amazing with great texture. Nice veggie restaurant, the dishes here were not too oily. Love the fresh tofu/ vegetables here, very close to the pacific mall Tried this restaurant a few weeks ago after frequenting Dynasty on Bloor (now Yorkville) for years for their dim sum. My family is vegetarian and while we love dim sum, are restricted by the amount of meat on the menus. Graceful veg was a pleasant surprise! We could order anything we wanted from the menu! The food was delicious, fresh and portions were large. We were also happy with the service, we didn't get nasty looks from the staff despite our two kids running around in the busy restaurant and generally getting in their way. And the cost, while people say is higher than the other dim sum restos in that area, was way less than Dynasty. My husband wanted to go back the next weekend! Great staff and service, the food was ok, pricey and not nearly as good compared to The Buddhist vegetarian kitchen in Scarborough. DEEE-licious! and the best service I have experienced in any restaurant. \n\nPrice is a bit high though. but overall, very satisfied.

Just moved to Henderson and have been looking for a great Chinese delivery. Last night we got Chopstix and let me just tell you! We will be new customers for sure! Food came hot, fresh and in great plastic containers not your typical boxes. Tons of goon for great prices! We had orange chicken(a little spicy which I never had before) DELICIOUS, next was the walnut shrimp which was spectacular, huge shrimps great sauce and also large portion! The pork lo mein was awesome also. We can't wait to try more from this place! Love this place. Food is always fresh and made to order. We come here at least 3 times a month. People are friendly I opened a Yelp account specifically to do this review. I read the other reviews and they sounded great!. I ordered the Pad Thai and BBQ ribs to go. The food arrived fairly quickly. When I opened the container, the Pad Thai looked like glued together super thick noodles. I had to use a knife to cut into it! It was by far the worst tasting Pad Thai I've ever had including the ones I tried to make at home using spaghetti noodles. It didn't even smell right! The BBQ ribs although there's quite a lot in one order was very, very dry and it looked like I got a days worth of their end pieces. Even the Fortune Cookies I got were super dry! The best part of the meal was the Iced Tea that I bought at the gas station across the street. Maybe they just didn't like me. I was even nice enough to let the lady on the register finish her game on her phone before placing my order. I guess I'm going hungry tonight.... Lucky me I bought TWO cans of Iced Tea, so I have that going for me tonight.... The last few times we ordered the food has been on the sweeeeeeet side. We like more savory/spicy rather than the sweet style chinese food. I doubt we will be ordering this again :(\nOrdered the General Tso's chicken (very spicy) it had a little kick but more on the sweet side. The Chicken delight was very sweet and had a lot of chicken (good for you meat lovers) we wanted more of the vegetables. I guess I should have specified less meat more veggies. The singapore noodles were ok. The fried eggrolls were very good. First time ordering from this place, and it was fantastic. We got the Mongolian beef lunch special and general tso's chicken combination plate. The lunch special came with fried rice and noodles. The combination plate came with chicken fried rice with huge chunks of white meat chicken. Both orders were excellent.

The boneless wings were over cooked and dry, there were one or two larger pieces that were not completely terrible but the rest were small bricks. The chicken lettuce wraps were made with what must have been pre-packaged/pre-cooked chicken and were very bland. The building is nice and had a lot of TVs, but it was a disappointing lunch. Nasty food, rude waitress. Not worth it. Wouldn't eat there again, not even for free. Unfortunately, many of the new restaurants in the north west valley have been disappointing in their service and food. I am forced to give one star by yelp, you know the drill, otherwise these clowns would get -100. An actual deficit of stars. That bad. If you need details read on otherwise, go ahead and order some neighborhood Barro\'s and dial in your Sunday night football. \n\nI\'ll give you the quick n dirty. \nMost important - terrible terrible food. Example: chicken lettuce wraps = a pile of cold raw cabbage on a piece of lettuce. No sauce. No anything. Couldn\'t eat it. Garbage. \nLet\'s move on to burgers - way overdone and what was left tasted like the back end of a mule. With the fur. \nPizza - terrible. What a wasted cheat meal. \n\nOk now to quality. Cold n old. Need I say more. \n\nHere comes the real kick in the shorts. Had people in town - trying to get some "terrific food from our brand new neighborhood joint". Support local they said. It will be great they said. A total and complete embarrassment. Wrong items and two people were missing their dinner completely. Can\'t make it up. Wouldn\'t want to make it up. \n\nNow - are these sins egregious? Maybe not. Maybe we can cut them some slack. Let\'s call and speak with management. Ahhhh there lies the problem. It all makes sense. Kathleen, oh Kathleen. Never again. \n\nOh and btw, this was their "grand" opening. Their best behavior. SMH. There was nothing grand about this opening. Ok- not great, maybe "good" is as good as it gets.\nWay too many tables and chairs for the size of the building. Was really excited for a new place in the NW valley but appears this is another Coldbeers & Cheeseburgers. What I mean by that is slow service and overpriced drinks. $16 for 2 mixed drinks? No thanks. I\'ll pay $8 for a drink when it\'s Angels Envy or Buffalo Trace, the only bourbon here was Jim Beam. Jim Beam for $8?! Jim. Beam. 8. $. A full liter of 18 shots is $16 across the parking lot at Fry\'s. And then to pour it light? No thanks. Very slow service and average food. Bar is small and staff is not trained well. The inside is probably the worst decorated restaurant I have ever been to. Very plain walls and no identity.

Their service is terrible. If you have the pleasure of having Kelli as your server then good luck. She made us feel like we were a burden to her so we left. There are way too many places to have a beer and watch the game with great service to have to deal with that. This is a review that's long overdue. I should be ashamed. But I must confess I have a real thing for wings. I like them extra crispy. So I go to BW3 fairly regularly. They cook mine eight extra minutes. They are delicious. Now the way I rationalize my slavish behavior toward this addiction is that I take work with me and I spend time out of my office (and away from distractions) and critique my writing students.\n\nWhat makes this place so terrific is the staff. I mean, I could go to a different BW3, or even another wing place, but then I wouldn't be treated like a queen. The server who usually takes care of me is MJ and she's terrific. She sets me up so I can get my work done in relative quiet (I know, there's music and sports but I can tune it out) and she keeps me in diet coke and delicious wings. I get a lot done. Marc, the manager, is always really kind and makes sure I'm happy. Even Gail, the owner, has taken time on more than one occasion to sit down and check in, talk about my work.\n\nThis place has it all - the great wings, the great staff. I love my occasional office away from home. If you are in the mood for a noisy sports bar with cold beers and great wings, then you\'ve found it. If this is what you love, then you will give this place five stars.\n\nBUT, if you make the mistake of ordering anything other than wings, you will be sorely disappointed, as I discovered on my recent trip to the Westgate location. \n\nI\'ve never been let down in my other experiences at BWWs - probably because I went to cool college campus locations on wing special nights - but I was less than impressed this time.\n\nI ordered a chicken sandwich and a side salad. After a lengthy wait, considering it wasn\'t that busy, a young food-runner (not our waitress), brought a burger to our table. I pointed out that my chicken sandwich appeared to be a burger, to which she replied, "Oh, no, it\'s a chicken sandwich. It just looks that way when it\'s grilled." Our waitress caught the delivery error - and my experience was not negatively affected by it - but I just thought it was funny that this teenage girl was arguing with me.\n\nMy grilled chicken sandwich was of the same quality as a fast-food restaurant. It was kind of rubbery, and it was served on a dry white bun. The side salad consisted of wilty iceberg lettuce with brown edges. At $10, I expected more.\n\nOf course, I blame myself for not ordering the wings at a place where this is the specialty, but I was still underwhelmed by the speed of the service, atmosphere, and price. First off... LOVE the fried mushrooms and fried pickles... honestly can't really find those anywhere else around - not that i've seen.\n\nWings are always good though I do have a issue with the amount of hard breading that's on the boneless chicken wings... always seems excessive. \n\nSalsa seems to change temperature, the girl says sometimes it's too hot for her, but mostly is the same. Different cooks perhaps? \n\nCelery costs extra = lame... it's frickin celery... Anyways, at least they don't charge for refills lol... (yet).\n\nLocation is great for college/pro sports as it's packed and always some good cheering going on... fun to be there during games. Place gets packed during UFC fights too fyi. Cool basketball arcade game too! Lots of TV's too What do you call it when:\n\n1. You place an order for wings from their official website\n\n2. Get an email confirmation with the price and amount that was on the website\n\n3. Go for a drive to pick-up your order and then are told that you have to pay TWICE what was on the website and the email confirmation/receipt because you are not a "member". Mind you, there is nothing on the website or the order confirmation that tells you this.\n\n4. You\'re told by the manager and staff there that it doesn\'t matter what the website says and it doesn\'t matter what the confirmation email says. It only matters what they are saying.\n\n5. You\'re told that everyone else that comes in to pick-up an order accepts this policy when they are informed of THEIR policy, and pays double the price EXCEPT for you. \n\n6. Then while waiting for owner/management contact info, a very aggressive employee gets in your face and it takes a manager to push him away when he seems to be getting out of control, while threatening to call the police on him.\n\n\nLooks like we\'ll be having pizza tonight

Everyone else has summed up why this place is awesome, but I do have one tip that will make your life better -- they have freezers inside filled with delicious Italian ice cream you can bring home with you! And individually wrapped Tartufo in a bunch of yummy flavours. Stock up and fill your freezer with them during the summer, or serve them to guests and pretend you made them. Sooooo good! Haven't been here in a while, but have some Out-of-Town'ers visiting so decided to show Little Italy followed by dessert. \n\nMy usual Mezzanotte was a 'meh' this time; there was freezer burn in my ice cream.\n\nAlso, the service was atrocious. It was a cold day and the place was hardly busy with 4 servers. WORST SERVICE EVER!\nThey don\'t even seat you! Even though the sign says "Please Seat Yourself," the servers won\'t even notice you going in. I waited for about 20minutes to be served and the place wasn\'t even packed! I won\'t deny it, thier desserts are delicious but i\'m not sure if I\'m ever willing to wait that long to get ice cream and waffles! After finishing my food, I personally asked my waitress to get me the bill. I had to wait another 20minutes for it!!! I seriously could have left without paying and no one would have noticed. This experience was the worst!!! don\'t go here usless you have alot of time on your hands to waste!! If you're going to use Sicilian in your name, you best make sure your gelato is the real thing; artisanal. \n\nTheir pistachio looked like some sort of mint concoction. The color was all wrong. I gave it a taste anyway. It was some sort of artificial or chemical attempt at a stand in for the real thing. Truly awful. An embarrassment to all things Sicilian. Oh, the enjoyment I have experienced on this patio!\n\nIf dessert is ever on my mind (which, to be honest, it usually isn't, but sandwiches usually are, and they have those too), this place usually follows as the answer.\n\nThe crepes are giant (as big as my arm- we measured one time), and the waffles even more so. But the real secret, I think, to the particular deliciousness that hides in these walls is: the ice cream. Their own special brand that is made on site (at the adjacent Sicilian Ice Cream Company), it really stands out as being the main feature of all the dishes they put it in. My favourite is the Zabajone, which they once described to me as vanilla with a kind of eggnog flavour. Oh mercy, how I love it.\n\nAnyway, they also have a pretty long list of breakfast foods, and a good choice of sandwiches. They are very tasty, but I would prefer it if they came with something on the side- other than the olives which, don't get me wrong, I love-- cuz they're not exactly huge (as my arm, of course). It's a fun place to sit and have a long conversation because you think you're just going to have a sandwich...then you have a San Pellegrino, then you split a crepe, then you have some coffee...

This is such a beautiful atmosphere! You can go to enjoy a delicious meal and look out onto the lake or grab a drink at the bar and lounge on the outdoor couches. You feel like you are on vacation! We had a lovely lunch here. Menu is small and a bit pricy but food was delicious. You come here for the view really. It's a nice place to chill with friends and have a decent meal.\nWe shared an order of shrimp tacos for appetizer (2 taccos in one order). This was disappointing; I don't recommend it; bland boiled shrimps; lack flavour. \n\nI had the haddock with salad for entree. Portion was small but food was done nicely. I enjoyed it. Roasted potatoes and asparagus were delicious. Fish was fresh and perfectly seasoned. \nCrabcake burger was just ok; won't get it again. Crabcake had good flavour but cheap bun was used which didn't complement crabcake well. Sweet potato chips that came with the burger was delicious though. \n\nRestaurant is a bit out of the way but worth the drive for the view. This place did not disappoint! After going on the cruise, I'd do anything just to sit by the waters. This was the perfect place for me as I got the waters and I was celebrating my first year wedding anniversary. I'm kind of glad I chose this place as the atmosphere was perfect and you get to overlook the lake.\n\nThe restaurant is located on the patio, so no matter where you sit, you will see the lake. Well, unless you decide to sit way far back. I booked the table right by the edge so we had the perfect view. There were multiple umbrellas opened as the day we went was scorching. There's also an area where it was covered in a tent, so it was cooler to be in there. I figured I should make the best of this and choose a table with the best view.\n\nWe ordered our drinks andy wife was completely blown away by how strong or how much booze they put in her cocktail. I mean, you get your money's worth! We started with the brussel sprouts and I kid you not I would go vegetarian for this. It was made to a crisp and had the right seasoning to it. This one is a must try, even if you're a brussel sprout hater. She had the seafood linguini and I had the beef and lamb burger. The burger was so juicy and mouth watering, even my wife ate a few bites. She usually doesn't eat burgers but not this time..\nHer pasta was good, but I thought the tang from the tomatos overpowered the rest of the pairing ingredients.\n\n5/5 so far as the service was perfect and food delicious. We will definitely be coming back. What can I say? A HIDDEN gem in Stouffville. Their Main Street location is gorgeous but their lakeside location is perfect for an evening out under the stars. Situated literally looking over musselman\'s lake their big white umbrellas shade you from the sun and at night the string of twinkle lights drape over your head over the most fabulous deck.\nThe food is fabulous. Upscale gourmet Portuguese pub food is my explanation. Their Brussel Sprout appetizer is AMAZING! I had the Crab Burger last time I was there and it is also mouth watering. My friend had the Tagliatelle which she said was delicious and we couldn\'t resist ordering a side 12" Mediterranean pizza. The menu is too delicious to not go BIG! \nThis is the most perfect date spot - expect to be there for a few hours as table turnover doesn\'t seem to be quick. Awesome location! Overall great atmosphere. The wood oven pizzas are delicious. A little on the pricer end but worth it because of the overall ambiance.

Came here after swimming classes tonight. We haven't been here in a while and it's going to stay that way. \nThe food wasn't too great but deserves 3 stars. The dishes could have been a bit bigger. The home style vermicelli was rubbish to look at but tasted ok. You can get much better from a food court stall. The place was half full and not as busy as it used to be. I much prefer Conger Queen to here. \nWhat made me give a 2 star rating was the service. Service here has NEVER been any good but tonight was crappier than ever before. Miserable, rude, uninterested staff. Looking at us like we killed their whole family. Was extremely bad, even for Chinese standards. \nWhy would you come here for food and be treated like crap? You could get away with it years ago, when we basically had few options. But in this day and age, it's totally unacceptable. I'd even go to Power King over here. This review is based on their afternoon tea which runs from 3pm to 5:30pm on weekdays and 3pm to 5:00pm on weekends. All items on the menu come with a drink and there's a decent selection on the menu. Keung's is a place I find to be really good value based on the portions and quality of food that you're getting. The place also appears clean which is a plus.\n\nOn my last visit, I had: \n\nPepper Salt Chicken Thigh ($9.95) - Delicious!! I started drooling the minute it was placed on our table because it smelled amazing! So crispy and perfectly seasoned. It's a must try but just make sure you have a rice along with it since it's considered a side order dish. Slightly on the pricey side for this one but worth it.\n\nCrispy Chicken on Rice & Groupa on Rice ($8.95 each) - Black pepper sauce on the chicken and cream sauce for the groupa, both which I thoroughly enjoyed. Not too salty or heavy. However, I did feel like there wasn't enough sauce in proportion to the amount of rice. Asked for more and they were happy to give us a small bowl on the side. Bonus points! They do their baked rice very well and I would highly recommend it. Portions are humongous. We couldn't finish it between 2 people.\n\nThe drinks are not bad either. I really like the red bean & black jelly drink with icecream. It's great during the summer.\n\nService is decent. They do their job and will get you what you need. I never expect great service from these types of places so as long as they're not overly rude or unaccomodating, I'm not bothered.\n\nThe prices have increased slightly (at least since July 2015 when I last came) which is a little disappointing but the place is consistently good so it won't stop me from coming back. Still a solid cheap eats! One of my must stops in T.O. is Congee Wong! My MIL recommended Keung's instead this time to try and because she's such an awesome foodie - we went to check it out.\n\nWe got congee (of course) in Lai Wan (very tasty) and Special (has liver chunks). The congee was really tasty and my hubby had an OMG moment over the flavorfulness of the special congee. We also got Chinese donut (very crispy), Singapore radish cake (not as good as Congee Wong, but decent), and crispy noodles (ok). My GIL says that usually the meals come with a free drink and after a simple asking of the waitresses we got free hot drinks (milk tea, ying yang milk tea, coffee, and lemon tea)! The prices are very reasonable (much cheaper than in the States for sure). \n\nRestaurant itself was clean and I can't wait for the next time I'm in town for more! So I rarely do reviews and nor do i really leave 1 star reviews, but this is one of the worst experiences I have ever had. I am not from the area and I took a trip to Toronto to meet some of my friends. They chose this spot as there were decent reviews of the place and took a chance at this restaurant. As a party of 5 people around he ages of 22-24 we were treated with the least amount of care during the dinner rush. Generally, I am a patient and understanding person who knows about the working environment and how mistakes and other unanticipated occurrences happen. I tend to overlook mistakes because we are human and we all make mistakes, however, this restaurant wait staff took it too far.\n\nI am very well aware of the Chinese culture and how some people do not care for western mannerisms and such which I do not mind at all. As we sit down and started to look at the menu, my friend remarked that he was not interested in eating much so we helped pick out something that was small, which was the beef satay in pickled noodle soup. As we wait for almost 45 minutes for our food to come out, we noticed that my friend had received an order that was different from the one he ordered. We spoke to the waitress and she insisted that we ordered this dish and would not change the order. There could've been some miscommunication so he ended up taking the higher road and just stuck with what he got. After all this waiting and such, I was eager to dig in to my beef brisket ho fun that I had been waiting for 45 minutes for. I would not have had such an issue with this problem if the food was good, but it was such a huge disappointment. Food was bland and greasy, took too long to get to us, very skimpy on the meats and the wait staff was the absolute worst as they ignored/avoided us most of the time. Even with such bad service, I personally left a small tip and got up. Unfortunately my friends did not have the same grace and did not leave a tip.\n\nAs we got up and walked through the door, the waitress ran up to us and exclaimed that we did not leave a tip. She could not get it past her head that the service that was provided was below subpar and left us with one of the worst restaurant experiences we ever had. Needless to say, we will not be back at this restaurant for the lack of service, accomodation, and care that a customer needs. We fear that because we were a young group of people that we were put last in the priority list in the restaurant and I really do hope that they fix this and treat everyone equally. We ordered from here after a major mishap with Congee queen. We waited 4 hours for delivery at CQ and nothing. Called Keungs for back up and they had our order ready in 30 minutes. Food was great. From now on I'm ordering and coming here. Thanks Keungs!

This place is such a hit or miss when it comes to device. Food is okay, onion rings are great! We got delivery service again to try them out after years of not going. Service still needs improvement. They forgot our fries, soda, and custard. Delicious food served here. This is a great burger joint for food that tastes like your at a cookout. Yummy for your tummy. Service is slow. The food is fine, and the prices are reasonable. The rewards program is run by a bunch of hacks that don\'t consider you the customer, Highway 55 is the customer and the rewards program operator\'s "hands are tied."\n\nThe wait staff checks cell phones frequently, is slow, and doesn\'t always get your order correct. This location is less organized than other locations I have been to.\n\nI wrote too much about how awful Fivestars was and Yelp removed my review. They also sent me a donotreply email. This place has the best burgers! They are large in size and have a seasoning I can't quite figure out. The wait staff are so sweet and attentive. Our favorite burger place hands down!! 50's style restaurant, burgers fries and shakes. Good service, fair prices and good tasting food.

Why wait at La Loma when you could just come here?! Exactly the same food but if you live in the falls or NW Akron this place is super close. I've been searching for authentic mexican food in Akron since returning from the west coast. I stumbled upon this little taco truck and I'm so glad I did! I ordered three tacos: carne asada, al pastor, and barbacoa. All three were delicious! The tacos had such a great flavor and were so fresh. The horchata was delicious too...light, sweet, with the perfect hint of cinnamon. Mr. Trompo, I'll be back! I grew up in Southern California so I'm very picky about my tacos. This truck reminds me of home and it's the best I've found around OHIO. The people who work there are so nice too. Yum yum yum! Doesn't get any better than this! Seriously the best tacos, they are consistently good and the people are friendly too! I was debating driving to la loma or taco bajaa fresh when I saw someone mention this place online. This is a small taco truck located in a plaza between Farmer Boy Restaurant and the USPS in North Hill. I tried the torta de lengua and it was great. There are two folding tables under a canopy if you don't want to eat in your car. I assume it is cash only but I didn't ask.\nI will be back to try the rest of the food.

Don't come here at night unless you have 15-20 minutes to spare and enjoy sitting in the drive through. This is the second time I've been to this location at around this same time and had the same experience both times! Shortly after this location opened at aprox 11pm, my family and I decided to go here. We waited at the drive thru for aprox 10min, where you order. No one ever said, can I take your order or anything. So we said hello twice and still no one answered. Finally, we left passing the actual window where you recieve your food and there was a young dark haired female worker. We will never go there again. She should have no job, and what kind of business doesnt take your order. Then on another occasion my son and his family went to that same location, because its near his house and his order wasnt right. Beautiful brand new Taco Bell!! I love that they opened one so close to our house!! \n\nGetting into the drive thru is really weird. I feel like the parking lot is cramped and trying to maneuver through is difficult. We had to go inside to order because of how difficult it was to get to the drive thru. \n\nWhen entering, it's a very small Taco Bell. The employees were abundant but they did just open. When we walked in about five employees were sitting down at the first table to your left. \n\nI ordered two items which took fifteen minutes to get and the place really wasn't that busy inside. I'll let that slide only because it did just open and I'm sure everyone working there is just learning the process. \n\nThey got my order correct and everything tasted fresh and delicious!! 3 time visiting this new Taco Bell and this was the first time going thru the drive thru. My 2 tostada were a hot mess and my daughter's nacho Doritos taco had a blue plastic tab in it, similar to those around a bag of bread. Initially she thought it was a prize and I was shocked. I called the location twice and it rang and ran then became busy signal. I took pictures of what I saw and would like to share them with you for better training with your staff. Thank God my daughter didn't take a bite without looking and nothing serious happened. I just want you to be aware of this. They messed up our order a couple of times but for all that is holy this is Taco Bell people, not a five star restaurant. When they messed up our order they always tried to give us something for free or got us the right order immediately. 5 stars because I like my tacos the way I like my woman. Pinto

A regular neighborhood Diner, with huge food portions. You will have a left over box to take home. Okay parking good service, friendly staff. If you like American Diner food this is your kind of place. Since I cannot eat heap of food, or anything deep fried this is not my kind of restaurant. But if you are hungry and want a nice friendly place to sit and eat this is a good place. Metro Diner may be a chain restaurant, but don't be fooled by that little nuance! Metro is diner food with a modern twist towards the creative extreme! Today they were featuring a Fried Chicken Benedict which was topped with poached eggs and nesting on Belgian waffles! Now many people say they serve Belgian waffles, but true Belgian will be chewier and almost a cake consistency! They are spot on!! The Holy Davoli burger is a site to behold! A 1/2lb burger that's served between two grilled cheese sandwiches, topped with bacon, shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and mayonnaise! This is a meat lovers dream! I'd be wrong to not mention just how lovely the entire wait staff is at Metro! Offering suggestions, steering you towards things you might like, and inquisitive about your reason for stopping in has lead me to believe that the Emotional Intelligence of the staff is quite high! Loving Metro Diner!! Gave this place one star because my boyfriend and I went in and ordered food to go last night. First off, the person taking the order didn't write the order down. Now I've been to restaurants where a few don't write orders down but they have pretty good memories and get the order right. This one however didn't and we had no idea u til we got home (15minutes away). He ordered a San Francisco Benny and ended up with the crab cake benny. On top of that, if it's your first time ordering from here, can't tell the difference until u bite into the food because the poached eggs and hollindaise sauce is on top. Well, not wanting to waste it since it was late and they'd close soon anyway, on top of being hungry, he ate it and the whole night he felt like s***. He got up throwing up every couple hours. Pretty bad food poisoning from that benny. I went in the following day to speak to the manager and although he said he could be refunded (I didn't have my bf's card n he was home resting, still feeling sh****), he did not seem apologetic one bit. I was left at the lobby area for a few minutes under the impression that he'd come back and call my bf for the card number so he could refund him. And while I was waiting, the two hostesses didn't ask if I still needed help. It wasn't until one of the servers came by that I said something. Very disappointing experience. Now I don't even trust they'll call and give us a refund. I don't even care about the refund but it's the principle that matters to me. First time here at Metro Diner. Our waiter was Awesome Javier. He was very friendly, helpful and efficient! We need more people like him serving! \nHe recommended the favorites. We ordered the chicken and waffle, meatloaf, country fried steak and broccoli cheese soup. They were all delicious! Fried chicken wasn't crispy though but went well with the syrup and hot sauce dip. Country fried steak wasn't crispy but good. Maybe the oil temperature needs to be a bit higher...? Breakfast done right. Their chicken and waffles is good. Chicken was nice and crispy and the waffle was fluffy. I like the strawberry butter and the spicy maple syrup. Home fries and sausage are also good and our eggs were cooked the way we ordered them.

It's no coincidence that the line at Master Wok is often the longest among the eateries in the Tower City food court. The food, while your usual Chinese mall-food fare, is a step above what you usually find at similar places. On top of that, it's relatively inexpensive: Your choice of white rice, fried rice, or noodles with a main entree item and a side entree item totals $4.75---$6.00 even with a Coke to drink. Personal favorites are the BBQ Pork and especially the Curry Chicken, which only comes out on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. The Green Beans are also very good.\n\nAnd...don't worry too much about the line. It moves pretty fast. They have the best buffalo chicken tenders on Thursday only. People line up from 11:30-1:00 just to get them. Can't go wrong if you like buffalo chicken tenders. Another Tower City jewel has caught my attention. I've had some good Chinese take out but the food I had at Master Wok in the Tower City Center was excellent. Even though the experience was almost ruined by some crackhead trying to reach over my mother and I and then trying to start a confrontation just to get extra soy sauce because puffing on the rock kills your tastebuds beyond tasting even soy sauce. Anyway the Sesame Chicken and Orange Beef were tasty and not over sauced and the fried rice was nice and tender like I like it. Now eating in the food court isn't the best way to enjoy a tasty meal but hey when you're in Cleveland take what you can get. The sesame chicken is filled with deliciousness! Obviously this is food court grub, but there's something about it that keeps me going back each Friday during lunch.\n\nThe line can sometimes be pretty intimidating during lunch hour, but this is without a doubt the quickest line of any place at Tower City It's mall food court, but for under $7 you get two main dishes and two sides (rice is a side). Not too shabby.

Delicious Chinese Classics.\nBest Egg Rolls and Peanut Butter Dumplings in MTL Ordered take-out at 5:45. Was told to collect the food in 15 minutes - arrived at restaurant and had to wait another 20 minutes. Checking the invoice, i was charged for Chow mein which I did not order nor was it included in the take-out. oops. Refunded me the $10.00\nThe dumplings were all dough and the beef in black bean sauce had no beans in it. Just bland brown sauce. Spare ribs were delicious and chicken with spinach was very tasty. Eggs rolls were crispy. \nDisappointing meal which cost more than $80. I see that one of their categories is Kitchen and Bath...makes sense I guess cause you might be spending a bit of time in the bathroom afterwards. Ha ha. I ordered this for delivery a couple months ago - I had the one of the generic combos and was really jonesing for some plain old beef and broccoli, so I ordered some of that too. After waiting for an hour, I called them back to make sure they hadn't forgotten about me. They hadn't, but it was another 20 minutes before my food showed up. Cold, I might add. Nothing was remarkable about the combo except the amount of grease and msg. However, there was something really remarkable about the beef and broccoli. There was no damn beef in it. I counted 6 thin slivers of beef in the entire order which was...wait for it...$14.50 without tax. The saving grace to this whole experience was that I opted not to go for their insanely overpriced battered prawns. I almost passed this place by due to the one solitary review of 1 star...Not only is this place open but the staff is friendly and the food is fresh , tasty, and delicious. I always use my standard selections to gauge how good the food is...in this case I got the standard won ton soup an eggroll and the general tao plate. The WonTon broth was made just right and petfectly balanced. The Egg rolls made fresh were much better than expected...and the General Tao was exceptional with a surprising amount of meat with just the right amount of batter....please discover for yourself...this place is worth your time. I have just found the very best egg rolls in Montreal.\n\nI am usually not a fan of egg rolls but Yangtze's were so delicious I had to force myself to stop at 4.\n\nThey are tradtionnal cabbage and meat egg rolls which are 25-30% bigger than the usual size. Yangtze's rolls are bursting with filling and the meat content is very high compared to any other egg rolls I have eaten. The cabbage still retains a bit of crunchiness which I like very much. The dough is the perfect thickness and very crispy. \n\nThe kicker here is their plum sauce. It actually tastes like plum. It is closer in taste to Polish paszkis filling than the usual Chinese plum sauce. \n\nAll in all, these egg rolls are not to be missed.\n\nAlso tried the won ton soup and general tao chicken that were mediocre.

I didn't even able to try out this place... Constantly got people bypassed the wait... No follow up....end up left with empty stomach! Poor customer service, probably all customers were all friends related...=_= I don't know about you, but I LOVE THIS PLACE. The restaurant is located in a corner plaza in the SW of Steeles Ave. and Brimley Rd. Plaza is ghetto af, but the food here is actually worthwhile. \n\nI have been to Lucky Pot a couple of times, and I will continue to frequent this restaurant whenever I am in the area :) I really hope Lucky Pot stays because over the 20 years of living in that neighbourhood, I have seen this spot change hands numerous of times, and never have I set foot in any of them (looked too sketched lol).\n\nRandom night, my friend and I have decided to give them a try, thinking it might be hot pot, but it turns out to be a Chinese restaurant. It is similar to Congee Queen but, like Allison Y. has mentioned, there is no congee, but more homey dishes like steamed fish, clay pot dishes, and family styled dinner combos. I enjoy the a la carte options more than their dinner combos. Complimentary soup and soupy dessert are included during dinner... combo or not.\n\nMy favourite dish at Lucky Pot would definitely be the steamed egg dish made with 3 types of eggs, topped with soy sauce and green onions! SO GOOD. The steamed egg comes out hot and is silky smooth; best paired with a bowl of white rice! But we opt for a Dried scallop & egg white fried rice, which was very light and pairs well with any dishes. The eggplant with minced meat was a nice dish too; it has a tiny bit of a kick!\n\nThe soupy desserts MUST get a shoutout too! It is different each time I went, and it is absolutely satisfying. I seriously need to ladle some home lol. I had the Purple rice with taro and sago, and the second time, I had a Pumpkin based one... so creamy good.\n\nThis new spot can get real busy. Reservations is highly recommended. They have booths and large round tables to accommodate larger parties.\n\nI hope Lucky Pot continues to do well, keep up the great work! #supportlocalbusiness In truth, 3.5 stars overall, but I want to give them 4 stars for the reason I explain below.\n\nI dined here 3 times just to ensure that I would form an informed opinion. Lucky Pot offers family dining and lunches at mid range prices. There are expensive dishes such as duck pot ($17), scallops ($22), steamed Tilapia ($20), and lobster. But there are also simple meat and vegetable dishes that are priced below $13. The portion is good in my opinion. Dinner combos have good selections. Combos are cheaper than individual ordering by a few dollars only, so feel free to skip the combos.\n\nThe deliciousness fluctuates per day of week per my experience. When I visited during the weekdays (Wednesday and Thursday, specifically), the food was well made across the board. Particularly, the steamed fish was fresh and the plating was beautiful. When I visited on a Saturday, some dishes tasted right on, while some were a little off in seasoning. More noticable was the dishes were oily. My opinion is that the chefs here are quite good, but the kitchen is overwhelmed by the volume during weekend. By volume, I mean there is a line up from before 7pm to well past 8:30 pm. \n\nIn terms of services, my experience was it was good during weekdays, but it was not easy to get a hold of a server in weekends. The service was very good once you could get hold of one. This is a small place, and likely with a small kitchen. Please expect some wait time when it is busy. \n\nLastly, mid priced family dinner restaurants that carry fresh seafood are hard to find these days. Most food venues have gone the HK cafe, noodle specialists and high end restaurants routes. The fact that Lucky Pot takes the mid range route has effectively put it in the same market as Congee Queen. But it has fresh steamed fishes and no congee. You can have a nice fish plus a few affordable meat and vegetable dishes as dinner. 4 stars from me because this is the type of family dinner I want. I have recently visited this restaurant as it newly opened in my neighbourhood. The place is clean, affordable, and is very comfortable for the usual family dinners. The staff were very polite and the service was good too. My server followed up after my meal to see how everything was, you don't usually see this type of service at typical Chinese restaurants. Each dish is around $10-$15 and the food quality was very good. Definitely recommend! Relying on Yelp, I picked this place., However, all we got was poor experience. Service in generally slow, food was over rated. Very disappointed .

We enjoyed their al pastor tacos, chicken fajitas and asada fries. We will definitely return. My husband and I wanted to try this place since we love Sonoran dogs.It did not disappoint. We had the Sonoran Hotdogs, Carne Asada Quesadilla and Chicken Burrito. Sonoran dogs were the best we've found in the immediate Phoenix area--generous toppings, crispy bacon, pinto beans, creme, and tomatoes on a torta roll. The carne asada quesadilla was flavorful and stuffed full with cheese, asada, and pico served with guacamole and sour cream on the side. The chicken burrito was tender and juicy. The atmosphere is relaxing. While the restaurant is small, it has a great patio area which is decorated nicely. Service was friendly and fast. We highly recommend Emilio's and will be patrons again soon! First time here and I gotta say, this good is amazing. It's a mixture of fastfood, but restaurant style... Definitely worth coming by to eat something. My buddy at work told me about this new taco shop he saw. He said he was going to check it out, and if it was good, he would bring me some tacos. So I'm sitting there at work on Friday, and here comes Joel with a bag of tacos. Score!\n\nHe got me 3 carne asada street tacos. I opened the styrofoam container and they smelled delicious! Small, street taco style, double corn tortillas. The carne asada was legit! Cubed up, not greasy, tender, and tasted delicious! They were topped with onion, cillantro and some guacamole. These were some legit street tacos, and some of the best I have encountered in the Phoenix area! 3 was a good lunch, but I could have definitely ate about 3 more. They were good! \n\nIf the tacos were this good, I will definitely be back there soon in order to try out their other food. It's close to work, and I was very impressed at first taste. Good stuff! Absolutely delicious! Everything I had tonight was amazing. I wanted to try the lengua taco because I've only had it one other place and wasn't a fan, it turned out to be my favorite thing I had. I could eat 10 of those things they were so good! The Cabeza taco was great also. The carne fries were a good size for the price and really good carne. They were out of pastel de elote but I was pleasantly surprised with how amazingly good the fried ice cream was they gave me instead. Friendly service and all and all really good. I'll defiantly be back.

Lei Yue Mun Steam Hot Pot is a somewhat specialized steam hot pot place that gives one the opportunity of using herbal soups as a base for an amazing night of hot pot. We ordered the 7 people special and due to the size of our group, we were given 2 different tables. By giving us 2 tables, we opted for a soup base which we went with a simple pork and tomato and potato soup as our base and a congee on the other end.\n\nOne thing this restaurant specializes is that the staff actually prepares the hot pot dinner for you and before your eyes. You will hear timers and bell chiming throughout the night as waiters and waitresses are running from table to table assisting customers with their food. We had ordered the seafood steam pot menu which included oysters, shrimp, abalone, clams and one whole lobster. \n\nThere were also plenty of vegetables including mushrooms, greens, zucchinis and corn. The staff cooked the meals in all preset times and would remove them off the platter when they were ready to be eaten. There were also 6 different types of spices and condiments in addition to the soya sauce that could be used to your food. \n\nI have to admit that most of the seafood was pretty fresh. The abalone was maybe the only disappointment of the night where it might have been slightly overcooked as the meat was a bit chewy on our end. Otherwise, for about $40 per person, the rest of the night was pretty filling and satisfying. \n\nThe really satisfying part of the evening was the end where the soup that had been used to steam the food was richly mixed together and really washed the rest of the food down. It was very simple yet so good. Although the price may have been slightly on the higher end, it was in the end somewhat reasonable given the types of food that we had. One table beside us did order the herbal soup base where we could tell that it too was quite satisfying and enlightening to that table. In the end, it was a pretty satisfying night. We also had a 20% discount card from one of our friends which made it more enjoyable. Overall I give it a 4 out of 5. Fresh food, good service. Price is reasonable. We were able to download an app called Youpinhui(similar to groupon) and get the steam hotpot even cheaper. With $29.99 per person, we got to try mussels, clams, lobster, shrimps, 5 veggie, squid, oyster, etc... Highly recommend chicken soup on the bottom. Will def come back again. Seafood platter was fresh and delicious. Took our godmother visiting from out of town who loved this new idea of steamed seafood and getting to drink the soup after from the delicious drippings and condensation! No added oil or MSG, just fresh seafood and vegetables.\nStaff serve and prep each dish of selected seafood on the steamer for you and set the timer, so you eat the seafood at the perfected time for texture and flavour. Owners and staff are also quite friendly. We (me and 3 friends) came to this new restaurant trying out its steam hot pot food just yesterday. Actually one of my friends had heard about this place and so we wanted to see what is steam hot pot. It sounds to me that it's quite healthy to have everything steamed instead of pan fried with so much oil...\nWe ordered a seafood platter for 4 people with a selection of pumpkin congee. The congee was put at the bottom level of the steam pot and all the seafood items were cooked on the top level of the pot. It's quite interesting watching the server put the food one by one on the steam hot pot and the food came out quite fresh and yummy. Overall we found there's lot of fun having this kind of dining experience... Not a small price tag but you definitely get what you paid for. This one gives you the best value out of its competitors of the same genre. The seafood is fresh. Service is friendly. Place is clean, which is hard to keep up given the high volume of steam coming out of the food. If you are into tasting freshness and the original taste of food, then definitely go for it. You don't see the yucky, murky water or back drips under your pot as in traditional hot pot places. It uses a pressurized steaming technology, so you can make soup or congee with the same pot without affecting your food tastes, and with have freshly distilled water each time. Minor complaints: the bass fillets could use more thorough descaling, the ladies' bathroom smelled like cigarette smoke, and the abalones didn't need to be overcooked. It is still a relatively new place. So given more time, they will have honed even better skills at controlling the cooking time for different types of seafood. Bonus: you come out feeling like you have had a facial!

I was in the process of moving furniture to the house I was about to rent. I was starving. This was close by....so....I ordered Gen Tso, to be on the safe side. OMG that kitchen is so disgusting. I was starving, but I don't know why I followed through with the order. I tasted something like soured grease taste coming through the chicken and then some other rancid flavor. I lost my cookies. I couldn't hold this down. You know how you get food, and the smell is just wafting through the car, and gets the flavor buds going? Not this. I don't know what to say bc some people are saying they really like the food, but I honestly would rather dumpster dive for food than take a chance on this health violation. I mean that with all my heart, not as a joke. I'm with the other older reviewer. I'm 47 years old and this is positively the most disgusting food that has ever touched my lips. Nope. Dirty and cook dude was clipping his nails at the front counter with finger nails flying everywhere. Nope nope nope 3.5 stars. I was very impressed by Pagoda. I ordered the steamed chicken with broccoli combo. The portions are huge, and they provided ample broccoli and carrots. The chicken fried rice was tasty, and the whole meal was incredibly filling. I am easily impressed by mediocre Chinese food. This place isn\'t horrible but its not good either.\n\nYou get a lot of food per dollar and it comes out quick but it just doesn\'t seem even remotely fresh. Honestly, I liked the Lo Mein, it was just that the sauce was overly salty. The veggies were possibly frozen and the shrimp was just a bad idea on my part.\n\nIts close, its cheap, and I like "Chinese" food. But Lotus on Harris is only a couple miles away so that will stay as my local go to. The worst Chinese food I ever had in my 40yrs of my life time I'm sorry it took forty dollars to find out. The service is as horrid as the food. Please do not go there. I implore you.

I wanted to like this restaurant and support a local place but why bother. If you want caprese salad you can only have it a happy hour. Instead of trying to please a customer and accommodating me they argued and said bruschetta was just as good. Caprese salad and bruschetta are two different things. Save the trouble and go to Bucca Di Beppo or Olive Garden and get what you want when you want it. I'm irritated by the fact they were so willing to accommodate me. Would of loved to have given a better rating, but we both ordered the wedge salad for lunch and there were major issues with the dressing the server and manager both apologized for the dressing and promised to address it, we weren't the first to hate it. I have eaten here several times and have always loved the food so I will return although we didn't have pasta this time it is usually great. i only had the complimentary breakfast here so the only review i can give is for the breakfast. The staff was super friendly and attentive, food was decent, that about it So we were in Cleveland for a family get together. We decided to stay at the Courtyard by Marriott across the street. Being bored and searching for happy hour, I found Bucci's and decided to walk over for a beer. What I found was half price drinks, and good selection of beers at that, especially for a hotel bar. Put it this way, the Courtyard bar was terrible and extremely over priced. Anyway, we were supposed to have dinner that night at the Olive Garden, but upon arriving there was a fairly long wait. We decides to return to Bucci's and try it out. It was an excellent choice. I had the chicken parm, my wife and her sister both had a shrimp dish. Both were very good and the service was friendly and attentive. We had chocolate ice cream and cheesecake for dessert. I would definitely recommend this place. Skip the chain restaurant around the corner. For the price - I'll take it.\n\nFor my quick overnight purposes, I was pleased to find it was clean, they offered free wifi (although super slow), and it was incredibly easy to get to and from given its location to the freeway. You could tell this hotel has been around the block though: It's ceilings were starting to crumble! You have yourself a suitable place to stay considering the price. As long as you don't go on assuming it's the downtown Hilton, you'll be in good shape.

I want to rate 608 higher but I've had so many sub-par experiences here. The wait to get a table is never long (1st star) and the drinks are pretty strong (2nd star). Unfortunately the wait for drinks is always long, even when there isn't many customers. The food takes equally long to get to your table, I've actually gotten a COLD sandwich because the turn around time was so long.\nThe view in the summer is nice, sitting on the roof people watching after being couped up in an office all day is a excellent way to unwind. It's also nice to take your food and drink into the theatre with you if you can't finish in time for your movie. It wouldn't take much to improve the atmosphere here. For starters, since it's outdoors, how about some summer flowers? Also, the metal chairs are uncomfortable -- seat pads would help. The wine selection is uninspired -- Sycamore Lane and Flip Flop -- and the food isn't great. I ordered the Mediterranean Platter and was expecting fresh cucumber slices, feta, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, hummus and olives. But it only had hummus and an artichoke dip, with pita slices and a small dish of olives. The view of the tree tops is pretty, though. And being outdoors in nice weather is always preferable to being inside. Fun, good view, and the bartenders do a good job with some fairly labor-intensive margaritas. this review is for what there calling madison_rooftop_tasteofsummer, I had the 10 dollar pastrami burger and 7 dollar calamari, calamari no red sauce barely enough calamari to satisfy a bird. Pastrami burger for 10 dollars you expect more then 1 slice, Seriously one small slice, 1 slice of pastrami are you kidding. it took me longer to read the 3 paragraph burger description of this burger then it took to eat it. I'm pretty sure this place is nothing like the real sundance except the prices.\nthis place is lost and so is there menu, good luck Went here before a movie and their food options were limited. We got Parmesan tots with spicy "ketchups" (yes, plural even though there was one spicy ketchup) and kettle chips with "dips" (guacamole and salsa). It\'s as if some guy in college was raiding his fridge to concoct this menu.\n\nThe drinks were sub par, my wife\'s mojito wasn\'t great, and our waitress looked like she was on meth. There were 7 servers behind the rooftop bar, but service still sucked.

Pizza is good but I won't Oder again \nExtremely slow delivery :( \nNot reliable at all had a good experience from mammas pizza. the delivery was fast. the pizza was soo fresh hot and crispy. the driver was really polite and humble. the person who took our order was really friendly and helpful in choosing the right pizza for us. looking forward to have more pizza from their store :) Decided to try this place out and so I placed an order online. I was called to say they have no gluten-free dough for our pizza bases and would I like to change my order. Not off to a good start. This place is not sanitary. One of the guys behind the counter making the pizza was coughing. So he covered his mouth with his hand and then went back to kneading the dough. Perhaps other cooties are included for free. I called twice, once direct to the store, and the second time navigating through the phone system. Both times the same guy answered, both times refusing my order.\n\nThe second time he straight out said \'Didn\'t you just call? Don\'t you know how to read online? We\'re closing."\n\nI was looking online, and the location closed at 12:00AM. It was only 11:30PM, yet they refused my order TWO TIMES.\n\nI continued trying to call back, but they wouldn\'t answer my calls.\n\nI\'ve never been spoken to so rudely before. I will never be ordering from Mamma\'s again.

This place is right across from Sunset Park on Eastern (between Heidi's Deli and Subway). I'd rather have the mexican food. Anyway, they had a hand full of mexican favorites on the menu like enchiladas, tacos, fish tacos, burritos, salads, etc. I'm a burrito guy, so I ordered the carne asada burrito. This huge burrito was filled with rice, beans, lettuce, carne asada, sour cream, and homemade salsa which had cilantro, which I loved. One thing you can notice is the fresh and quality ingredients. It also came with some tortilla chips that were not greasy. The restaurant is pretty classy for a mexican restaurant and plays nice music too. I like that you can get a real Coca-Cola in the glass bottle. It looked like a lot of people were ordering the fish tacos, so I'll have to try them on my next visit. The prices were reasonable and the staff was very friendly. I will be back soon. I'm hooked on Pepper's bean and cheese burrito. Awesome flavor and portion for a great price. The same girl is working there every time I go in, and she's always so friendly. She knows me by name, and she has my order down. I have yet to try another dish (aside from the cheese fries, which are delicious!), but I'm sure it's just as fresh and scrumptious as their bean and cheese burrito. Pretty good, darn fresh, and nothing's greasy. The fish tacos are wonderful, the shrimp cocktails are really good, and they serve mulitas, which I've never seen around here or in Detroit.\n\nMulitas are like a taco/quesadilla hybrid. The standard taco meat, onions, and cilantro is served with cheese between two toasted, taco-sized tortillas. Very nice dish. Great Burritos.. had a carne asada, and i told them what i wanted and they made it. very friendly and fast service. oh and if you like Salsa theirs is great. This family-owned resto between Sunset and Warm Springs serves a mean fish taco. These suckers are the perfect blend of tortilla (smallish corn tortillas which are just big enough to wrap around the delish insides), fish (flash fried and not too oily) and spice (there's both a cilantro and chipotle sauce which are used for drizzling). Also, if you get the fish taco combo (a deal for $6.99), there's yummy rice and beans that come with... One phrase: Eat it... it's worth the wait at lunch time.

The absolute worst Chinese food I have ever had. Everything was terrible including the service. I never post on yelp. This was worthy of letting people know how disgusting this place is. I have been coming here for years. The owner works hard and the food is delicious. It always comes out well coursed, as we typically order an appetizer, soup, egg roll and main. The staff is friendly and helpful. You have to get the crab Rangoon and house special soup which is wontons, pork, chicken, shrimp and vegetables. My go to place in the area if we want a sit down Chinese meal. It is not super fancy, but there is a koi pond in the back that has feed to give them. My 4 year old daughter loves it here and the owner is so sweet to her. She even asks how she is doing when I come in without her for take out! The sushi is also delicious! Take out and delivery is always spot on, hot and quick! The kids meals are unique and has a variety of kid friendly options. It is a great place if you live in the area or are just passing through! We order from this location regularly. I especially like the fact that you can make your favorite Chinese dish somewhat more healthy. They always will steam my chicken and vegetables instead of frying with tempura breading. They also put all of my sauces on side. I try to cut back on calories and use amino acids as my sauce.\n\n\n\nNow when I call they typically recognize my order and will even offer a healthier black rice that they have at sometimes. I really appreciate that I can have my Chinese food cravings cured but on a somewhat healthier option. I ate here for dinner last night with a dining companion. The decor of the restaurant is interesting with a large fish tank dominating the room over by the kitchen and various Chinese knickknacks throughout.\n\nUpon being seated they start you out with a bowl of fried wontons with both sweet and sour sauce and spicy mustard to complement it. For my entree I ordered the General Tso's Chicken while my dining companion ordered the Cashew Chicken. The General Tso's sauce here was a bit different than the sauce that you will find at most Chinese restaurants but still tasted good. I also was able to taste some of the Cashew Chicken which was also tasted pleasantly. One thing I would like to note is that although the servers were efficient, I had a general cold feeling from them that you normally do not get.\n\nThe bottom line for me is that I would come back here again. None of the food was spectacular but the price was right. Owner is always welcoming and accommodating. The food is delicious and portions are big. I love the crab rangoons and house soup! There is a neighboring koi pond with food in a dispenser for a quarter. My daughter loves feeding the fish!

A sushi buffet in Ohio? Whaa? And in Parma? (and where in the world is Parma?!)\n\nAfter being disappointed that Seoul Garden was closed on Mondays (sheesh!), we headed over to Watami...as it was 1.4 miles away. We all drove over to Watami, hidden away in a strip mall.\n\nAs we were a group of 7, I thought it would be hard to seat us. To our surprise, we were seated right away. The restaurant is quite spacious, with tvs lining one side (where Monday night football was playing).\n\nWe all went for the buffet. On one side, there\'s a sushi bar- multiple types of sushi, sashimi, etcera being made.. with lots of choices. \n\nThe other side of the buffet had the hot foods- a tad more unique- fried frog legs, oyster, mussels, various types of fishes, dim sum, your typical fried rice and random noodles, etc.\n\nThe grade of the sushi...wasn\'t the best. I mean, it was definitely cool to have all the choices- kudos to that- but grade.... the rice in the sushi wasn\'t being held together all that well, and the fish..just wasn\'t that fresh.\n\nThe hot stuff...was your typical asian buffet fried food- it was okay.. but.. not my fave.\n\nI, however, enjoyed the assortment of ice cream. Green tea, vanilla, etc..with random pieces of cake were really good! The rice pudding..not so much.\n\nNot so great. I mean, it was okay? And the company I ate dinner with were good? The food..not so much. However, props to the wait staff- they were fast and efficient. My fellow buffet-arian next to me commented on how he "liked to see the stacks of plates pile up.. to show how much you eat at a buffet.." but our plates never stacked up. Props.\n\nSo, for a buffet... I mean, it\'s what you expect for an asian buffet in Ohio. For authentic-ness, not so great..but meh, it was okay. Its not the best quality or best selection of sushi you going to get. However, if you just want quantity this is the place. Prices reflect the quality. Hot foods are a mixed of chinese and japanese cuisines. I didn't find the hot food too appearing. I usually stick with the salad and sushi. Cheap sushi, and good too! For 30 pieces of sushi for 12 dollars, you seriously can't go wrong. I love their selection, plus it's way better than store bought sushi being homemade and all. Granted, i've never been to any expensive sushi place...but why bother when it's this good?\n\nThey also have a lunch special buffet, all you can eat for around 8-13 dollars. Great deal considering they have a ton of other stuff to eat besides sushi. Another yelper called this "fast food sushi" and that is the perfect way to describe it. It\'s not the best quality but is tasty and will fix a sushi craving. This would be my choice if I\'m dying for sushi on days it isn\'t half off at tomo, shinto, or Sakura. But mostly my brother just bribes me to go here (free food) because he loves it and it\'s quick, so I never say no. \n\nThey have a lot of sushi rolls to pick from but I usually stick with the basic rolls, just my taste. One side is sushi and the other side is hot food, basic Chinese buffet dishes. It\'s not the greatest selection so I usually just get some teriyaki chicken then go right back to the sushi side. \n\nOh and I forgot to mention lunch is only $7.50.... Which is probably why the broski offers to treat. Okay, so most people cringe when they hear the words: sushi, buffet, and parma in one sentence; but the purpose of THIS review is to dispel ideas one may have about Watami's quality. The sushi at the bar is of good quality (better than sushi you'd get a grocery store, and better than many other buffets that serve sushi) -- you will not get sick from their fish. I go there at least a couple times a month (for many yeara), and never once have I experienced food-related illness -- but pizza, or Double dragon buffet makes me barf really easily, to put that into perspective.\n\nSometimes, the hot food bar is mediocre (I usually skip it), and sometimes the fried items get dry -- such is the nature of a buffet, but the sushi is a-okay and never dry or weird.\n\nTake your friends here and sample the many interesting foods available, such as seaweed salad, flying fish roe, green tea ice cream, kimchi, and more! It's pretty delicious! Take out is also ridiculously CHEAP-- Me and my boyfriend can chow down til we're full for about $16 total at the takeout prices.\n\nThe staff is mostly friendly.

Decent food court choice. Had the General Thai, chicken was way to crispy/tough. The Vegetable stir fry with sweet and sour is good on steamed rice. The chicken fried rice with basil was wicked. Very good flavor for a food court. Good for on the run. Meh, food court Thai food. Nothing special a little too greasy and very standard. I guess I'm glad it exists, but I often think hmm I should have just gone to Edo for veggies and rice as it's waaay less greasy and just as tasty. Weekday evening at 8PM and it wasn't busy. I ordered the pad sew with chicken and mild (I do like you can choose the heat level of your food) and my friend had steamed rice with veggies. Our order came to about $17. It was cooked and served quickly and hot.\n\nI was disappointed with my meal as there wasn't much chicken but some egg. It was also a bit greasy. My friend enjoyed her veggies with rice and oyster sauce.\n\nOk for food court fare but there's lots of selection so wouldn't be my first choice to eat. Not bad for food court Thai food. Quick ordering and lots of selection. I like that it\'s made "some what" fresh and in front of you. Everything was good but my entree could of used less sauce since it was a bit much and over powering. Besides that, it\'s your basic food court Thai food and is pretty good. Here is another one of my regular lunch locations. I always have the same thing. I always have the stir fry ginger chicken spicy. I always get it with no rice and just vegetables with hot sauce and hoisin sauce. It's great lunch food. \n\nthe food is always fresh. They have these big flame woks and make it to order so its always hot and fresh. They are very Thai and sometimes its hard to understand them but they know spicy so it always comes out with a little bit of a kick!\n\nThey are way in the back corner but there always seems to be a line up. that usually tells me the food is good. At least it is here!

3 star, extra 0.5 for Durian Pastry...... \n\nHealth Gourmets promoting health eating by using better ingredients, less oil, salt and no MSG. \n\nInterior deco is quite pleasant with spacious, open concept with green and white colour theme. \n\nDim Sum serves till 3:30 pm with a smallish menu but quite sufficient as it has my favorite durian Pastry!!! Price is on the higher end in the area $2.50 (VIP card holder at $2.30) and $3.50. \n\nSteamed Shrimp and Chives Dumpling ($2.30)\n\nSteamed Beef Roll ($2.30)\n\nDurian Pastry ($3.50)\n- Freshly made and I can smell its aroma feet away.. \n- So flaky and puffy.... And the creamy filling just oozing out\n- LOVE, finger licking good...\n\nThe other 2 are quite standard but the portion is good since it is the healthier version, the taste is more subtle. \n\nThey also serves Cantonese dishes during dinner time. \n\nI probably will come back again for dim sum... Healthy dim sum.... Nice Food. Good Price .pretty good service. \nWe had Roast Duck and blueberry Yam both \nwere great .there Cashew marinated beef was delicious and Garlic ribs was absolutely tasty. \nWe brought VIP card (coast us $20) which is very useful ,some item we had 20%off.\nThere looks bright and clean which had inside kids and adult hands wash place.We will definitely come back. :) The owners are so nice and friendly. The food is great and I love the fact that it's healthier (less oil, less salt, & no MSG). Just had dinner here.\n\nNeed to highlights few things, first off...they have a "VIP" membership that cost $20 to join to get special discounted pricing on the menu.\n\nIt\'s full price if you do not purchase this "VIP" membership, this involve you just paying up $20, they don\'t care what you fill out on the so call form they give you to fill out. \n\nWe had dinner for 4-6. "VIP" pricing $48 dollars, non-VIP $68.\n\nThis dinner includes:\n\nVegetable soup \nPeking Duck (2 courses)\nScallop (canned) mushrooms with baby bok choy.\nGor Lor Yuk\nDeep fried salmon belly with Salt and pepper \nSweet tofu dessert\n\nOnly dish that was descent was the peking duck itself. The garnishing vegetables the provided was dry and old. Looks to be prepared from a day or so ago, the scallions and carrots were dried out. \n\nSalmon dish was dry, very dry. Over cooked.\n\nThe gor lor yuk dish...no meat to little meat. It\'s like eating a sweet sour dough ball.\n\nDefinitely not going again, once is more than enough.\n\nAs for decor, sea foam green, plenty of empty walls... Of sea foam green. A few "chancellors" to scale up the place.\n\nCheck out the photos from other reviewers and you will get the idea. Never again.\n\nWhile the wait staff were friendly the kitchen is slow.\nIn a Chinese restaurant, the food usually comes together and everyone has a feast. This place is SLOW. The food trickles in one item at a time, the next item not coming until you\'ve finished the previous and have waited awhile.\nBeen waiting 1.5hours for our entire order to arrive. When the food does arrive it isn\'t even hot!!!\nThe portions were small and we are leaving hungry.\nThe restaurant wasn\'t even full, it was half empty.\nAvoid this place unless you enjoy waiting and leaving hungry.\n\nEdit: 2hrs now and been told we still have one more item coming when I asked for the bill. I asked why it\'s so slow and got a look that says..."I know but...."

This location is beyond frustrating. My family has ordered from here somewhat regularly and the food is actually cooked relatively well. However, when you request garlic butter on the side they only have a 10% success rate for including it within your order. Extremely frustrating. Ordered pizza and cheese bread tonight arrived 1:20 later with some type of cinnamon sticks. Long wait wrong order. Next time order Joe Mommas or Luigis and pick up my fault for being lazy. It\'s a lazy Sunday, I\'m feeling fuzzy, the Domino\'s commercial comes on, I think "Mmmmm, some chocolate lava cake would be delicious right about now..." I pick up my tablet, order some Parmesan cheesy bread bites and chocolate lava cake. My tablet shows in real time where my order is in the process. When it shows that my order is out for delivery, I gather my cash and fill my tea glass. Sure enough, a few moments later the delivery guy arrives. He\'s not even scary- he\'s clean and his uniform fits right, his pants aren\'t hanging off his butt and he\'s not stoned... it was a stellar experience! My lava cake was delicious just like I knew it would be... Thanks Domino\'s! Well done from marketing to delivery :-) Have purchased dinner from here a few times - the orders wereaccurate, food was hot and deliveries arrived quickly! Surprisingly -- the chicken was very very good. It is an inexpensive alternative to the other (rather extortionate) pizza places in the neighborhood. Love that I can order online - no phone calls on hold, spelling my name a million times, barking my credit card number. It is all a seamless process -- that ends with a decent meal! Keep up the great work! Domino\'s isn\'t usually my "go to" for pizza but my work sent everyone a $10 coupon for National Cheese Day. So I ordered my pizza online and all good.\n\nLots of choices with the web ordering site with different crusts (I chose the thin), lots of sauces (I chose the spicy) and of course lots of toppings (I chose mushrooms and onions). The pizza arrived about 40 minutes after ordering it and because I\'d paid online, I still had to sign for it.\n\nIt wasn\'t quite still hot even though I\'m only about 2.5 miles from the location and the driver did have one of those insulating bag things. A quick turn in my oven and then it was ready for eating. Decent flavor, crispy crust, enough toppings.\n\nIt was A-OK.

Simple and Easy, this is the restaurant in the nut shell, this place has been around for ages. and they do 2 things well, Buns and chili oil beef cold dish. The Chili oil for the beef cold dish is perhaps the best thing here. it is flavorful and not too spicy, and feels perfect with the beef. The Buns are fairly big size, and will be a good lunch for most people. The fried bun on the other hand is not very good, it is definitely not one expects when they order it, and i would say stick to the steamed bun. the Pickled cabbage pork bun and spicy beef bun are recommended. If you just want to eat and don't care too much about decor this place delivers. Food for two people came out to about $15 for 5 buns, soup, and chicken. I get the sour cabbage and pork buns, always tastes good. They don't speak english here and they close before 10PM I think so it isn't good for late night eating. A tiny little shop in the corner of the plaza. Makes amazing baozi with a variety of stuffings! They also have Northern Chinese style congee and soy milk to wash it down with. We drive over an hour there for them sometimes. On most weekends, you might also be able to get liangpi if you get there early enough. Knowing my love for vegetarian buns, my mom told me that i would find this place satisfactory. She was right, it satiated me..but it did not wow me....well the chinese name of the place did, as it\'s a pun that also means "forest of buns" teehee.\n\nThey have daily specials for various types of buns, but my only interest was the egg and leek bun. We got a pack of 6, my mom paid for it, and we left. The leek bun did not have rice noodle inside, and they probably could have used more stuffing. The bun itself was well made and the flavour of the stuff was wonderful. It would have been a four star if they didnt cheap out on the stuffing. Maybe I\'ll come back and try again, but i might just go to TnT and eat their vegetarian buns instead. Been here fore years! love this plae, for their tofu pudding the best in scarborough. makes me feel like home back in china. their sides are nice too, they ahve hnice aunty's workign there and are all very friendly. The service is fast and never not happy. the buns are yummy, they have seasonal specials like lamb buns!! so good but only winter months and cold noodle. The thing I do not like about this place is space... there is barely any space, people whom buy take out can come ad go but those whom want to stay in must find a corner or are in the way ( they are very busy in the mornings). Additionally, the cost off buns and other dishes have gone up greatly! a regualr everyday bun is $1.39 each.... other bun places are still at $0.89 or $0.99, It is getting more expensive. other than that nothign much changes in this shop! \n\nGOOD FOOD, GOOD SERVICE, Price bothers me at time b/c comparision to other shops. \n\nIT's not a whole in the wall or a hidden gem but it's pretty good .

Sandwich is pretty good but I honestly could make it at home. Staff was horrible. Kid was more interested in his phone than making a quality product. Don't waste your time. Buy a sub. I went in here twice now and both times my order was messed up. First time I asked for no onions, and then burnt my finger tips picking out the onion slices (can't really wait for a grilled cheese to be cold, it defeats the point). Second time I asked for no mayo and, surprise surprise, there it was. I wanted to gag, I hate mayo so much. I even watched the girl take my order and then not even talk to the person making it.\n\nAlso 2 something for a fountain drink?! No thanks. Sandwiches were bland (tried two different ones) and not worth the big price tag. Would rather spend my money getting a burger from Harvey's. They used to be much, much better. New owners at the end of 2013 and it's progressively gone downhill. \n\nWe've been here 4 times since the ownership changed, each time hoping they were just going through growing pains and that it would get better, but it hasn't. \n\nThe cheese used to be real sliced cheese - and you could choose which kind you wanted (cheddar, mozzarella, jack ..) now there's only one choice and that choice is a pre-shredded blend. You can even taste the cellulose. I don't know why but somehow the cheese is always chewy and melted, but cold. I miss the days when I'd walk away with my mouth scalded from the gooey melted hot cheese. \n\nAnd what's the point of wearing gloves to make my sandwich if you're going to use that same gloved hand to take my money, give me my receipt, and handle everything else that's in your eye line? \n\nWe used to be here at least once a week after school, but I doubt we'll be back. It's not worth the expense or coming away smelling like we dined in a deep fryer. Nothing great about their grilled cheese, it was bland, but their poutine was even worse. Cheese curds were rubbery, kept squeaking as they were rubbing against my teeth, gravy was white and watery. Would not recommend it to anyone. Save your money! I was expected some interesting cheeses......nope, just cheddar and mozzarella, the cheese was quite poor quality. I expected more variety. The "avacado" is not slices as you would expect, it is some kind of processed guacamole product. To be fair, I did not realize this was a fast food chain. When compared to others in the same category such as subway and chipotle, it is quite comparable.

Definitely see how a Neighbourhood cab change the prices of the EXACT SAME FOOD as downtown on Yonge St avec higher prices. Is that because it\'s "Bloir West"? It really IS The exact same chicken. Interesting. Nice environment but not worth the seemingly extra prices. Walking in, you'll notice no shakers of sugar, peppers, or peanuts. This is not a good sign for a Thai Restaurant.\n\nIt's dangerous to go alone - it's best to order two dishes, just to make sure you have some sort of flavours to switch back and forth with. While, not terrible, the food is bland, and without any sort of flair.\n\nIf you just want noodles, then you will be alright - but if you want Thai Food, you're best to stay away. There's nothing for you here.\n\nAnd at the prices they're asking? It's ridiculous. The restaurant has a decent price point and fairly extensive menu. The atmosphere is something like an up-scale cafeteria, boasting fairly nice furnishings and decor, but little or no privacy / intimacy. Not really the place for a date if that's what you're looking for.\n\nThe service was a bit slow and aloof, doing little other than take our order, deliver our food, and receive payment.\n\nThe food itself was pretty good, and came in large portions, leaving both my wife and I with a 2nd meal out of it. The noodle dish I ordered was very delicious, however a little bit on the salty side and swimming in sauce; it probably would have gone well with a side of rice to thin it out. My wife's rice dish was pretty good as well, with pretty generous portions of shrimp, but would have been great were it a little less oily.\n\nAll in all, if you're just looking for a decent portions, decent flavour, and a competitively priced meal in Bloor West, then the Green Mango would probably fit the bill. Just don't expect it to be anything other than that. Awesome Pad Thai, & the Won ton soup is fantastic. Takeout is super fast. I've always been a big fan of this place for a quick, inexpensive thai meal. My last visit was great from a food stand-point, but the service was so terrible that it has soured my opinion on the restaurant as a whole. Our negative experience culminated with our waiter bringing our cheque 30 minutes after we were finished eating, and then shrugging when we said that we had wanted to order dessert. Brutal. I'll try to remain objective for the purpose of reviewing the food.\n\nMy top pick: Golden Chicken Curry. Chicken, peppers, bamboo and a crazy delicious yellow coconut curry sauce. I could eat (read: have eaten) an entire order by myself. Great spring rolls and pad thai, too. I also enjoyed the cashew chicken and the fresh spring rolls.\n\nCheck it out for the $9 lunch specials (get the golden chicken!!)

My boyfriend is from Chicago, so we had to give WC a try. The inside of the restaurant is fun and kitschy and shows off loads of Chicago pride. \n\nThe food is good and there is a lot of variety. The servers smile a lot and the place has that fun-family-run-vibe, I had a dessert today cooked by the owners wife (it was delicious). After going to Yupha's Thai Kitchen and the line was out the door we needed to pick a new place and I fired up Yelp and found the windy city caf\xc3\xa9 right across the way... Upon entering the staff was really friendly and seated us right away. The menu is huge lots to choose from hard to pick just one thing... I ended up going with the beef & sausage combo (Italian sausage, Roast beef, Spicy Giardiniera on a French Roll with Au Jus Served with waffle fries. What a meal so good the waffle fries are like the east coast fires I miss and the spicy giadiniera so good. I will be back for sure to try new things off the menu. Nice staff! Server was great. The potatoes served with plates needs to be cooked more and browned on both sides. No huevos rancheros! Let's get it together now and place this on le menu ;) Bummer. \n\nI was so excited to visit this place! \n\nFirst, the service is excellent. Excellent folks! Attentive, accommodating, helpful -- everything service should be. \n\nBut, wow, I was disappointed in the food. I went with a breakfast skillet. Goodness, whoever is handling the marketing should get gold stars. The menu is fabulous and that skillet sounded like it was going to put me out for the rest of the day. \n\nNo such thing happened. \n\nIt was a teeny-tiny skillet with overcooked hash browns and the smallest sampling of eggs. The most forward taste? The vegetables, which would have been wonderful, but the chopped up bell peppers were somewhat glossy in flavor. You know the taste I mean -- like the vegetable had been wrapped in cellophane before being cooked. \n\nCrud. \n\nI think I just ordered the wrong thing on the menu. My companion gloated about her breakfast offering. \n\nI would go again, but I would try something else off of that gorgeous, expansive menu! My girlfriend and I have gone out to a new place for breakfast every Sunday for the last 6 months and I must say this place is in my TOP 5!!! My friend and I are both from Illinois and having visited Chicago many, many times we felt right at home. The staff was very friendly and attentive to anything you need. They have a few TV's for your football or other viewing pleasures. \nThe menu has a wide variety of dishes for both breakfast and lunch. Now I will admit when I go somewhere new I am always watching the plates come out of the kitchen to help me decide what I want. All I can say was everything looked delicious ;) \nI highly recommend this restaurant to everyone

If you have not been to Regions, you are missing the boat! This is a classic regional American comfort food restaurant the likes of which we have not seen in Scottsdale since I can\'t remember when! In addition to a great regular menu, each month features a changing "regional" featuring different region cuisines. Not to be missed is the mac & cheese with crab (or shrimp or chicken if you prefer) the warm pretzel like bread and the turkey dinner. Seriously Thanksgiving anytime you want. They have a full bar with creative cocktails, the fresh watermelon mojito was yummy! The staff was another treat , amazing staff, friendly , fun, genuine and attentive (pretty rare in Scottsdale sometimes!) Check it out at The Shops at 9400 East Shea. You will not be disappointed! All I could keep thinking about was Gordon Ramsay\'s Kitchen Nightmares-- It\'s a nice enough looking restaurant inside...but on a Saturday night, the restaurant was 1/2 full--\n\nMany of the previous comments have hit the nail on the head-- uninspired entrees-- Mac & Cheese shows up twice on menu as an entree and as an appetizer size-- mixed with lump crab your\'d expect a nice dish-- It was bland penne paste with an alfredo sauce and parmesan cheese baked on top--- I have made better mac & cheese at home--\n\nA friend ordered "fall off the bone" ribs....not exactly falling off the bone.\n\nFood needs a "Kitchen Nightmares" makeover....or Regions will be history My husband and I decided to try Regions after seeing that they had reopened. The whole experience was just disapointing. The food was uninspired and below average, the prices high, and the service mediocre. I can think of at least five restaurants within a five minute drive of Regions that blow this place out of the water. One out of five stars ONLY because it wouldn't let me leave zero. I went to Regions Saturday night on a whim when my dinner plans did not work out. I was pleasantly surprised! I guess they've gotten a bad rap in the past, but now there is a new chef that definitely knows what he's doing! I had the fresh fish of the day, which was halibut in a soy butter sauce with homeade potato gnocci. It was FANSTASTIC! I'm usually very wary of a restaurant cooking my fish, but it was perfect. It was smooth, not flaky or fishy, and the sauce and gnocchi were to die for! This place has definitely gotten a bad rap and I have stayed away until this last weekend. To be honest, I had forgotten about it completely until on I was on Mill a couple of weeks ago meeting up with a buddy for lunch at Five Guys right next door to the Regions that opened in Tempe. \n\nMy fiancee and one of our other good friends celebrated their birthdays this past weekend with a bowl-a-thon at the Via Linda Lanes and we needed some place to eat beforehand. I did a little research and found Regions is part of both opentable.com and restaurant.com, had a decent looking menu with stuff the group we were going with would like and I thought we should give it a shot. Besides, I was getting the points and a great discount anyways, if it was no good at least I would get a deal.\n\nThe inside is nice, clean, and modern. The seating is spaced nicely and not on top of each other and the music isn't too loud either. We had a group of six so they sat us at the big table in the back corner. My fiancee and I arrived fifteen minutes or so prior to the next couple. Yumi was our server and she was great; very attentive as well. I felt bad that the rest of our group was running as late as the were and so we ordered some drinks and appetizers. The first apps we ordered were the Rings and Fries (The rings were good, a little on the softer side, but at least the onion didn't come out of the battering on the first bite. The Fries were decent, but the Gorgonzola they were covered in was a bit too much in the cheese department. We also ordered the Mussels which were quite tasty. Yumi even apologized when she noticed 2-3 hadn't opened before they were plated and served. We also ordered the calamari which was crunchy and had a little kick. All and all everything was enjoyed and brought in in a rather timely manner.\nOnce our entire party had arrived we took advantage of the date night special that Regions runs on Saturdays (any bottle of wine 80.00 and cheaper is half off) and ordered a couple of bottles as well as our entrees at that point. Half of the table ordered the mac and cheese with either crab or chicken. I tasted the crab one and it was good, although I like much more pepper on my m&c so it was a bit bland for me. I ordered the filet mignon med rare and it came out perfectly. They don't ruin the meat with a bunch of spices and sauces here, it stands alone and was juicy and cooked just right. I was quite happy about it. It is served with a baked potato and veggies. I think if I do it again I would try to sub out the potato for another side if possible. \nThe birthday girls ordered an apple pie a la mode and a s'more for dessert. They were both nice and warm and very tasty. However we were all stuffed from the meal and couldn't finish either of them between us. The bill came and we were happy that we used restaurant.com because it made the meal even more affordable for the amount of food and drink we consumed. We will definitely go back and try other options in the future. It was nice that Yumi checked on us as often as she did as well as the manager and chef and I think these folks have something good going on over there.

This is the best make your own pizza place! This is always my first choice when we are in town. I have never been disappointed and the pizzas are always perfect and cooked to perfection. The service is fantastic! Would totally recommend coming here!! Okay without any exaggeration, I just left Fired Pie at San Tan Village. My hubby and I wanted a veggie pizza made just for our own individual personal palates. Fired Pie didn\'t disappoint, Jennie worked with my hubby and I to create 2 awesome veggie pizzas. It was full of all our desired fixings "of our choice". Jennie prepared our pizza with TLC in every bite. Jennie & her coworkers (female) tag team our pizzas. Albeit, there were other customers they took there time to satisfy each of us. The service was swift, professional, and pleasant. The staff worked with a smile and showed genuine concern for customers satisfaction. Wait, it did not end there Micheal, supervisor delivered the pizzas to our table and showed the same genuine concern regarding the cooking process using their brick oven which turned out amazing, cooked perfectly. Micheal and his staff at the San Tan Village location Rock! \n\nIf you haven\'t tried Fired Pie you MUST!!! It doesn\'t matter what your dietary needs are Fired Pie will NOT disappoint. \n\nSan Tan Village has earned my loyalty, I will be back. Fired Pie is ok for something quick. The concept is similar to Chipotle. You pick your crust, sauce, and toppings as you walk down the line. It is cooked and brought out to you quickly. The issue is, the crust is soggy. There should be a good crunch and there isn't. I am not sure if it is the dough or the sauce, but it is really disappointing. FIred Pie is my favorite pizza restaurant. I am from Missouri and they don't have a location in my state. I am here visiting relatives. My mom and I stopped in the location in SanTan Village (so glad it's close to my family who live in Gilbert). The employees are super friendly and accommodating. This was my moms first time. She was very impressed with the salad. Not only was it a lot and they made it exactly like she wanted, she said it was very tasty. \nMy pizza was totally on point! I love thin crust pizza. \n\nI encourage anyone to stop by and try it! Came here for lunch. The service was amazing. The food was great. Definitely worth another visit. The toppings are fresh and the handmade dough was very tasty. I really love how quick it is. I had a much harder time finding a parking space here at the San Tan Valley Mall! I even tried Shark Energy drink. It taste a little better than Red Bull, not sure about the energy yet!

The feel of this place is what I liked the most. It is decorated super trendy and you have to walk through these little shops to get to it. The outdoor patio with the fireplace looked nice, but we went during the day so it wasn't on. The margarita pizza was salty yet simple. The dry rub ribs were good but nothing special. The meat was tender, which is a plus, but the spices just didn't mix with my taste buds. Some people might really enjoy them! Overall, this place has the potential to be really good. Maybe since we came when they first opened for the day, we didn't get the best food. Not sure if I will be back...If I do, I'll have to come in the evening since that is what most of the reviewers liked best. I came to Forge this past weekend with the husband for lunch and must say that it was ok with the potential of being good. The service was attentive without being overbearing. We decided to stick to the basics to get an idea of their food and ordered a margherita pizza and a burger with cheddar, aioli on the side. The burger seemed ot be made of high quality beef, but was fairly bland... it could have used more seasoning in the meat or a more interesting topping (had plain lettuce, tomato, onion). The bun didn't hold up to the burger, getting totally soaked by the burger juices and soggy. The fries that came with it were good, but for 13$ I am looking for a more flavorful burger. The pizza had a really tasty crust, I enjoyed it a lot, but the toppings were, again, bland. It had limited cheese (which is ok), but the sauce had limited flavor and the whole thing was boring. I could see their specialty pizzas being better, as the toppings would add some flavor, but I feel that a pizza place should have a good basic pizza as a solid base (especially for 13$). Anyway, I would give this place another shot, but it isn't at the top of my list at this point. I don't even know where to begin!\n\nFood, ambiance, service, atmosphere, everything was above and beyond. \n\nWe were shopping at the Union and decided to stay there for dinner. Place looked great but since we never tried their food we were not sure what to expect. And then...What an amazing surprise...\n\nThe food was absolutely amazing. I had tomato basil soup, which was amazing. Then for the main course I ordered Baby Octopus that was served with mashed potatoes, old bay aioli and breadcrumbs. It was out of this world. The portion was really small but you do not want plate of entire octopus on it...just saying. \n\nMy boyfriend had Mushroom pizza with house made sausage, garlic and thyme. He was as well blown away. I had to have a piece because it looked so good and I didn't want him to eat entire pizza by him self . The crust was awesome. It was tender but yet crispy throughout. It was full of flavors. I had to pick sausages out as I do not eat pork but he said they were the bomb. \n\nDrinks were to die for as well. We had Ways&Means (bourbon, sweet vermouth, 2 bitters, maple) and High Tide (gin, orange, lime, mint). They were very different from each other but flavors were amazing on both. \n\nService was just out of this world as well. Our server was really helpful by explaining the Menu, checking on us in timely manner and getting us exactly what we needed when we needed it. \n\nThis is a kind of a place that I will keep going back to. They have a beautiful fire pit outside, which is perfect to have a drink by on the semi-cold Phoenix nights. \n\nThank you unique but absolutely amazing Forge and crew, we will be coming back for sure! Amazing service!! Ask for Chloe, she is the best server in town. The food was great...you have to order the cheese cheese curds. Who knew that a pizza place would have great hamburgers? But they do. We had the mushroom pizza and the bleu cheese burger. Both were wonderful. Yay!

This place used to be good when it opened. We hadn\'t been in a year or so, but it has become a classic case of ,"Where is the beef?". We ordered the same family meal we had had previously, but got about half the food we used to. We all left hungry. Never again. I wasn't even going to waste my time writing a review about this place, but it annoyed me at how their food & quality has changed so much. I've been a fan since the early 90's just a few years after they opened their first location on the Danforth! The quality has gone down, portions have shrunk and the price has gone up in such a short period of time. I had lunch today at this location. First time in almost 2 years. I was REALLY in the mood for Greek food. Markham has a large Greek community, but sadly very few Greek Restaurants. It was my only option today, otherwise, I would've gone to Greek town. \n\nWe ordered chicken gyros dinner. They told us they slice the chicken in the morning and wait for an order then they warm it up. Ewww really? What happened to slicing it fresh per order?? My pork souvlaki dinner was so salty i had to drown out the taste with large amounts of tzatziki sauce. I ordered an extra skewer of souvlaki for my 5 year old and they served it with 2 slices of baguette? Yet on the menu it's listed as coming with pita. When did Greek restaurants start serving French sticks with their food?\n\nI would now put them on the same level as food court Greek food. No thank you Mr. Greek, your glory days are long behind you. Nothing really caught the attention of my taste buds. There wasn't anything special that made this place stand out from the rest of the Greek restaurants. I got takeout. Had the Classic Chicken Souvlaki (Greek salad included) with two sides. (Rice and Greek potatoes). The chicken was good. The potatoes could have been softer and could have came with more of that gravey-sauce. Without the saauucee, the rice tasted soo bland. I was disappointed that my salad only had two black olives in it, and they chinced me with a small amount of feta. The amount of tzaziki sauce this meal came with was disappointing. A blow to the whole meal. It wasn't made fresh/in-house, and was more of a pre-packaged dipping sauce. Definitely not enough. \n\nSo in conclusion, I was very disappointed with the lack of potato gravy-sauce and lack of good restaurant made tzaziki sauce. I want more olives!\n\nI don't think paying $15/+tax for this was worth it. You might as well spend your dough and go to an authentic Greek restaurant, rather then these chains. Although to be fair, the Mr.Greek Express location closer to my neighbourhood (855 Milner Ave) is waay better. They have a good family deal with plenty of options and big portions. I wouldn't say that it is the best tasting Greek food but there are not many options around. I honestly prefer Jimmy the Greek at Markville better. One of the wrost holy s**t words cant explain how bad it is my grilled chicken was small and dryed as hell didnt even finish my dinner. My gf pork just tasted burnt just overall horrible never coming back \nI went to pizza nova next store and got pizza

Somebody call the Health department ASAP. First off, the address to this dump is wrong on three different websites, which is why it took me nearly an hour and two phone calls to find the place. It is located in a very shady area right where an army of about 20 homeless folks had gathered. The store sign is a bedsheet and the parking lot in the back appears to be a place you could easily get jacked. \n As I entered the place to retrieve my pie, nobody appeared at the counter. I peaked into the kitchen and the old gravely voiced lady was fully lit up with her cigarette spewing smoke RIGHT THERE IN THE KITCHEN, while her hubby was slinging pizzas next to her. It was a disgusting lack of respect for people who eat there and have no idea what goes on in the kitchen. Many people have complained about the cigarette smoke, but now it is time to shut this place down. Nasty behavior by people who should not be making food for others to eat. I'm glad I witnessed this and it saved me $15 and likely sickness too. I got the white pizza...sooooo good...fresh garlic with Olive oil! Definitely will be trying more from them. Parking is in the back of building and there are picnic tables if you want to sit and eat outside. UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP!! I WAS a regular here until today. Was very surprised to find that they had sold their business. The new owner came to our table and let us know he had just bought the place and had a very limited menu. The thing he didn\'t tell us was among the things he was out of, were TASTE and QUALITY. The slices that did come out where about 60% of the size they were under the old management. The crust was chewy and undercooked, cheese was bland, the toppings seemed more like a garnish, and the sauce tasted like something you would find at the dollar store marked "Pizza Flavored Sauce." I also received only one of the two toppings I had ordered, and the party next to me, who ordered several pizzas to go, were missing toppings off their pizzas as well. They didn\'t even have any diet soda or iced tea, so the "sugar challenged" had to drink water.\nI understand that that he is a new owner, but he would have been better served to close the place for a few days while he got his footing, than to serve sub-par food to regular customers, who will not return. We just love the white pizza here at this place! \nIt is almost like eating a warm cheesy garlic bread but only it's better than that!!!!\nThe lunch special served here is very reasonable \nGreat service that is fast and friendly. hey mr Scottsdale--you clearly don't know ny pizza. the gravely smoking lady is part of the ambiance. You don't deserve to eat REAL NY Pizza. I am a Brooklyn girl and love Slice of Sicily!!

Terrible food. Ordered a shrimp burrito and no shrimp was in it, place was messy. Won't go back Food is just awful. Seating was pretty cramped. The service was good until they had to issue a refund. The worker doing the refund took the plate from my hand and angrily threw the food in the trash. Would never recommend this place or come here again. There's a far better Mexican restaurant (salsa cabana( in the same plaza that will never disappoint in food or service. It\'s back! A decent place for sure, but certainly a few long standing quirks, that to me, make it 3 starts (average) over something that I would consider above average or exceptional. Overall the food is good and despite some of the negative reviews of the staff, I find them to be friendly. We go about 1-2 times a month, but for one reason or another not as much as before since the move.\n\nThe quirks I find are ones that most people that join us all agree with as well. Portions are a bit small for the prices and no "free" chips. The other is the small plastic salsas that they will give out for free but are clearly protecting from waste so you find yourself having to get up from your meal to ask for time and time again.\n\nSo with the quirks, how would I change this... First I would focus on making the portions about 1/4-1/3 bigger or add a small, but cheap side (beans, or rice) with any order. Then I would also offer a free chip bag on orders over $15. Last I would have staff monitor the tables and offer salsa about every 5-10 minutes (come to us so we don\'t have to come to you). \n\nRemember this review isn\'t negative, but to be special, you have to offer something special. Right now the food is good, but the nuances of the value for what you are getting make it seem... average. Things have gone wrong since they moved locations. I ordered the chicken mole platter with rice and I had about two bites and quit. I don't know if it was just an off day, but the first bite that I had was cold and the second was all tendon. I don't know about you, but when I bite into tendon, it sets me teeth on edge and I can't eat anything else. I attempted to eat the rice but after a bite I quit as well. It tasted like it was out of a box. The mole sauce itself was nothing but spice. No flavor at all. Needless to say, I won't be back to this location. Definitely my favorite restaurant! I started eating their shrimp tacos 30 years ago, and I've never turned back. Amazing marinated and roasted meats, grilled seafood, and fresh salsas. Even their refried beans have a special smoky flavor. It's a casual taqueria where you order at the counter. Service is fast and friendly.

chinese

Ordered this off uber eats, once again a nice Asian restaurant in the heart of China town that exceeds expectations. I got the spicy beef broth rice noodle and it came with beef shank. The shank was really tender and the broth had amazing flavour. I would definitely recommend this place during cold Canadian weather. One thing I would say is that the soup is on the oily side. So I went to dinner tonight and was reading review about if I checked in on yelp that I will get a chilled noodle. So I told one of the girl server whose english wasn't very good that I checked into yelp and she said she doesn't know then ran off to the back. I assumed that she put my chilled noodle in. Then when our order came, I asked the server (guy) whose English was better about the chilled noodle dish, then he said it was only for afternoon. It didn't say anything about afternoon on yelp at all so I was sort of disappointed. The service was so slow but we were just for the food only. The restaurant was busy and only 2 servers taking orders. The food was quite tasty. Minus one star for the washroom being out of service. Seriously?? So your staff don't need to go to washroom. Mediocre food. Luke warm service. Uncomfortable IKEA chairs and furnishings. Reminds me of eating at a friend's apartment back in my college days. Terrible dessert. Won't be back. I can't believe how stupid and irresponsible people can be.\n\nMy daughter went on Sunday evening September 3 and ordered a vegetarian noodle dish. She said she was allergic to peanuts. They brought the order with peanuts. She returned it. They scraped off the peanuts and gave her back the same dish.\n\nShe ate it and a few minutes after leaving the restaurant she started having an allergic reaction. We had to take her to emergency at Micheal Garron hospital where she received an intravenous treatment and was kept under observation. Thank goodness she is fine and recovered fully.\n\nThis idiotic behaviour to save one dollar of noodles is inexcusable. How stupid not to know (or care) how serious peanut and other allergies can be.\n\nI reported this to the Toronto Public Health Services. Came here on a Saturday night \n\nPros \n-Good service \n- Family Style ambiance \n- well priced \n\nCons\n- Food was average

I loved my salad and sweet potato as well as the lobster shrimp dip I got for everyone. Everyone felt like the wait was very long for the food. I have not been been for a while and really enjoyed going with my friends. Their strawberry daiquiri is not watered down or too rummy either~ A group of us from work came here for lunch last week. This is only the second time I've eaten here and I have no complaints. I ordered the Grilled Chicken & Strawberry Salad. It's field greens with fresh strawberries, grapes, mandarin oranges, candied pecans, red onions, feta and raspberry vinaigrette. Instead of getting the chicken on top, i substituted for salmon instead. It was perfect! Salmon was cooked exactly as ordered and our server was great. The only complaint I have is that I had to go back to work. So if you're looking for great service and delicious food in Independence, try out Longhorn Steakhouse. I got a berry/citrus/pecan chicken salad with field greens and a chocolate stampede cake with vanilla ice cream I split with a friend. I took my friend out to eat here and they loved it! The cake was the best, mousse-like texture and creamy! Mm yummy. And the chicken on the salad was tender with a tasty dressing and fresh toppings. I love longhorn! Their sweet potatoes are awesome too, with brown sugar and butter.. perfect for a cold night. I have never been disappointed at this restaurant. Three staff is professional, friendly without being over bearing. The steak is superb, always cook to perfection. I would highly recommend this place to everyone. Even the chicken wings is great. Highest rating from me. We arrived around 9:00 on a Saturday and only waited about 5 minutes. We had the asparagus appetizer, which was delicious - I would recommend it. The ribs were fall off the bone good but the steak was undercooked, even after we sent it back. Our server was very nice and overall it was a nice night.

Would not have thought so but the best orange chicken I have ever had just came from a this place. But everything else was amazing too. Definitely on my list to always come back!! Excellent Thai. I cannot sing enough praise about this find. \n\nThe cucumber salad was cut into chunks and was fabulous. Although I love this salad. Normally I find tris salad has red pepper flakes in it. I did not miss them in This salad \n\nBarbecue steak was so tender and the vegetables steamed to perfection. The cilantro jalape\xc3\xb1o sauce had me licking my fork. I wish I could buy this in a bottle\n\nCrispy noodles rad nar presentation was amazing. The vegetables were plentiful and also steamed to perfection \n\nWill come back. I was so impressed with the food I texted photos of what was served. Best Thai we have experienced in the valley. We ordered basil chicken and Pad See Ew with shrimp. We loved the flavors. Totally balanced and delicious. I did feel the amount of green beans in the basil chicken dish took away from the flavor of the dish. I will ask next time for less green beans and add in a different vegetable.\nThe restaurant is very comfortable. The service was fine. There was one other table of people at the time.\nWe plan on returning and will bring friends. I love Thai food and wanted to check out this place as this was nearby and had good ratings. My experience is so polar opposite to the good ratings in yelp so lemme just say food was so bad that I couldn't take the second bite. Dishes had a weird smell may be bcoz of the chicken or shrimp. I'm not going to this place again. Never. Very disappointed. I'm hoping it was an isolated incident because I respect and believe in my other yelpers reviews. I was visiting Scottsdale and after a year in Africa, was craving Thai food. It was great. But hot is hot. The staff was very friendly. I will be back when visiting Arizona.

We really did enjoy your quick dinner \n\nWe came for dinner for my mom's birthday. I had made reservations via open table just to be sure our group of 6 would be ok. When we got there our table was all set and ready. \nI found the staff to be very friendly and attentive. We had informed them we were in a little rush as we had a play to see. They tried to accommodate us as much as possible. \nThe food was very good. Very reasonable portion size for the price you pay. I got the octopus salad which I really enjoyed. My mom got the chicken parm which was also good. Someone else at the table got the lamb shank, although I didn't get to try it, I can say that it looked and smelled amazing! \n\nOverall I would come back here to try more of their dishes. Although not a huge menu, everything I had was good, their wine list was great, and the staff was friendly. The place was very clean and the atmosphere was nice. This place was superb! I had my engagement party here in August 2015 and all my expectations were not only reached, but by far surpassed. \nThe food was of the highest quality in taste and presentation. We are still getting acknowledgments from our guests who loved it there and will be returning on their own.\nThe staff was friendly and excellent at their jobs. Jaclyn, the event coordinator, made this event run smoothly. She organized everything for us which took the stress off of us.\nOverall, I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. Just amazing.\nMy fiance and I were also there for dinner and receive the same high quality of service and food. We will definitely return and we highly recommend Bar Italia to our friends and family. I can't vouch for the lunch/dinner options but the chocolate ganache cake at Bar Italia is to DIE for. Maybe literally. It's essentially composed of just pure dark chocolate and heavy cream. Unbelievably good. It's definitely an indulgence but kinda nice if you're coming back from a movie at the Royal and want to have a sinful dessert. Came here for a Wednesday lunch at noon on a cool, sunny spring day. Just walked a block or two along College and it was one of the first place we found that was actually open and looked like it would have an acceptable menu.\n\nGreeted immediately upon entrance. Long and narrow inside. Booths and tables. Modern, chic, simple with some interesting designs but nothing that really stands out or is memorable. Several casual tables outside, some in the shade some in the sun.\n\nFriendly enough service. Prompt. No complaints.\n\nGood chicken fettucini lunch portion with sundried tomato with parsley & basil ($11.95). Big enough without being too filling. Available without the meat for a dollar less if I remember correctly. If we hadn't been in a little bit of a rush to get back to work, I would've been tempted to try a salad or dessert. And of course wine. \n\nBut those will have to wait for another day when yes, I would go back. Would like to try for dinner in the summer on a Friday perhaps when there's a crowd, to get a true feeling of the atmosphere. I came here for Winterlicious on a Saturday night with a date.This restaurant has a very unassuming exterior which might not attract first-timers, however the interior is classy and romantically lit. There are probably 25 tables for 2-6 people which makes this restaurant great for dates but not so much for larger groups. The waitress serving us that night seemed standoffish and rather unhappy to be serving (her arms were crossed over her chest for most of the night) but everyone else was polite and friendly. \n\nIn terms of food, Bar Italia serves some great dishes and some misses. Their Winterlicious menu offers three courses, with three choices each so my date and I were able to try 2/3 of the menu. For the appetizers, we ordered the Insalata Mista (very fresh and light; we particularly enjoyed the tomatoes) and the Polenta Grigliata (the mushrooms and the sauce were delicious; we're not too keen on polenta). For the entrees, we ordered the Bucatini all'Amatriciana, which I feel was a mistake on my part. The Bucatini was cooked al dente but I feel the sauce was too sour and the dish unremarkable. The Salmone alla Griglia, however, was divine - perfectly cooked and seasoned on a bed of roasted vegetables. My date cleared his plate in minutes. For dessert, we ordered the Tiramisu (quite good; strong espresso flavour) and the Torta Di Ricotta (kinda lumpy and bland). In hindsight, I think we should have ordered the chocolate tart instead. \n\nFor $25, this meal was well priced. I'd give the food 3.5/5 (some dishes were a solid 5, but the pasta was disappointing for an Italian restaurant). The ambiance made up for some lost points and the service was overall A-okay.

Good Americanized sushi place. \n\nMy husband and I are super fans of fresh sashimi and sushi so we thought we would give Shinto\'s a try (rated #2 best sushi in Clev). \n\nWe usually order sashimi/sushi sets and add uni and some other fish that is not offered on the sampler. Drinks - hot sake and beer.\n\nShinto\'s did not have a sashimi/sushi set and they did not sell uni. Our waiter was awesome though and talked to the chefs about creating one for us. They put 2 types of ahi, salmon, tako, and hamachi. All were good but not great. For sake they only offered 1 kind, the house sake, which was also good. \n\nWhen asked where we normally go since our order was different...we didn\'t have an answer as we just moved back to Cleveland from Hawaii then Asia. His description of Shinto\'s was funny - it\'s the place people go who "love" sushi and they order some deep fried rolls with 6 sauces all over them. LOL! \n\nLike I said the dinner was ok, waiter was cool, atmosphere seemed nice if you wanted to go for happy hour and drinks...which I would totally do.\n\nOur next stop is Tremont to try Ginko. We heard they have amazing sashimi and is a little more authentic. Oh Shinto, you have so much potential. Sadly, your staff is going to be the thing that brings you under one day. \n\nI recently tried to order some sushi rolls for take-out over the phone, since I actually really do love their sushi even if it is expensive - hence why I gave them two stars instead of one. The hostess seemed less than thrilled to be stuck there at 1:20 on a weekday afternoon. After being hung up on twice, and maybe I should\'ve taken that as a sign the big man upstairs did not want me to fulfill my sushi craving, I finally decided to call one more time. Well, I wasn\'t hung up on this time. Instead, I was put on hold for almost 15 minutes. While you might be reading this and saying, "that\'s not thaaaaat long", imagine walking into a restaurant. You FINALLY get a table after being ignored by the hostess for 5 minutes, but then no one greets you for another 15. You would either walk out and/or never come to that establishment again, no matter how good the food. But chances are, that wouldn\'t happen in a good restaurant with decent staff. Why Shinto feels that customers ordering carry-out aren\'t as important is beyond me: last time I checked, I have to pay for my food just like people dining inside. After all the frustration and time, I simply told her I had changed my mind, I\'d rather take my money elsewhere. Big disappointment. \n\nInstead of paying for all these radio commercials I keep hearing this holiday season, maybe invest in some better waitstaff. Tonight the whole family came. We took up both grills. The manager did a nice service recovery because my nephew when we first arrived touched the grill and thought he burned his fingers. The lady came out with some options on how to take care of it. That was really nice. The whole time we were there while the guy was cook, he kept asking if we need anything. I really enjoyed that. With being how busy, Kayla was pretty attentive and took care of us. After coming here on Saturday I had to write a review because me and my friends had a blast! First off the place was packed so while we waited for our table we got a drink at the bar (bartender was very cute lol). Once we sat at our hibachi table we got some sushi rolls because their sushi is amazing! Definitely One of the best spots in Cleve for sushi. Our server was great and chef made us delicious food and kept us entertained! Great place overall The best sushi in Ohio. The Incredible Hulk is my favorite roll. Great hibachi. Definitely worth the drive!

Excellent deli food, great ice cream, and a crazy fun atmosphere. It\'s definitely a place that needs to be seen to be understood.\n\nThe food itself is not extraordinary but quite good for the style. There are other places I would recommend for "just food" in Madison, but the atmosphere and environment add so much to the experience. I would recommend this as a place to check out for lunch, probably not dinner. \n\nThe ice cream is also a great after-meal treat. They come in a variety of great flavors. Holy kitsch!\n\nMy fianc\xc3\xa9e and I went in here recently to see if it lived up to the standards we'd set for the place when we were little kids. The place had begun to fade from my memory so aside from a cacophony of mechanical whirring and children playing I didn't know exactly what to expect.\n\nThe d\xc3\xa9cor is just as tacky as I remember. Trains chugging along the walls, flying Bart Simpsons and Yellow Submarines, the creepy little girl on a swing rocking back and forth. The place gets to be a bit of sensory overload, but that's sorta what it's known for. \n\nThe server who took our order was very nice. i have no complaints about the service.\n\nI have both good and bad to say about the food:\n+The reuben I got was well built. It didnt get soggy until the very end when it was mostly just kraut and dressing left.\n+The flavor of the reuben was great. I wouldn't say it was the best I've ever had, but it can definitely hold its own. The kraut they use is particularly tasty\n+I can't believe I'm mentioning this, but the soda. I got a cherry Pepsi, but it's not like cherry Pepsi that you're used to. They use crushed ice and a shot of grenadine to mix it. That in and of itself isn't unusual--you can get grenadine in cola at most any bar or supper club if you ask--but the proportions here are heavenly (and that word isn't an understatement). Usually places add way too much grenadine and it tastes like carbonated cough syrup. I've stopped drinking soda almost entirely except for going out to eat, so to make something relatively mundane like Pepsi taste fantastic is commendable.\n\n-The fries were meh. Nothing stood out about them. They were just bland bits of potato.\n-My fianc\xc3\xa9e got the mushroom and swiss burger, and her patty was burned. She took it apart to show me and it was, indeed, black as a hockey puck on the bottom.\n\nOverall, I'd say that this place is worth stopping into if you have nostalgia about coming here as a kid or if you have children yourself. If you're a transplant to the Madison area and without kids, I'd suggest passing on this place for now. It's not that the food is bad, it's just about average and you don't need to surround yourself with kids and toys to enjoy average food. This place is, ultimately, a novelty and they're very good at being a novelty, but they're not the kind of place I imagine anyone being a regular at. Loved all the cool toys moving around and that we could play with the table. However the two sandwiches took close to an hour to get and were just ok. Also the table and menu both felt grimy. If you don't like kids I'd avoid this place. It was packed full of screaming little kids. Great if you're under 5yrs old and care only about the cartoon themed decor and merry go round. My children love this place. I enjoy seeing how amused they are...which is the only reason I give this place 3 stars.\n\nThe food deserves 1-2 STARS. There needs to be more attention to the food here. The food is meh...not enjoyable or tasty at all.\n\nI will most likely not dine here again. However I will drop by with the kiddos for dessert and a few rides on the merry go round. It's fine for grabbing an ice cream at the ice cream counter. Their ice cream is delicious. I wish the games at the tables would be repaired. And that the tables were less sticky. Customer service could be a little bit better, but I think sometimes they're understaffed. Of course the carousel is awesome.

Big portion, definitely for 2 people.\nHad the steak (minced meat) poutine, well I think it was good, can't compare since it was my first poutine !\nI think it cost around 8 or 9 ? Not sure. Service was good, place could be a bit cleaner but was okay. I'd definitely visit again I am no expert on poutine, but I thought it was very good. I had that and the vienna sausage, which was also tasty. I would definitely go back for the poutine though. Average at best. I came in the late afternoon for a classic poutine. The dish was warm and the cheese curds were NOT melted. Really disappointed since I'm coming from the US and this is my first poutine in years. It's not like the kitchen was busy since there were only like two other tables. The fries were good though but thoroughly disappointed. nice ambiance and the waiters are nice and their "small" poutine is pretty big the prices are good for the area I don't know what I just ate but it was not a burger. This hockey puck had a gamey aftertaste that led me to believe that the patty was not fresh. My stomach is protesting even now just thinking about it. When bitten into, the cross section of the burger yielded something that looked like a cross between mystery meat and mashed up canned tuna--homogenous and gross. \n\nThe service was awful. This was because they were understaffed with only two individuals working front-of-the-house and two others in the back. The place was not packed, but they could have used a few extra pairs of hands. \n\nAs if to make matters worse, our server included the service fee with our bill because he said we had a large party. This was appalling to me. We were a group of 5 and he had noted on the bill that we were a group of 6. It pains me to say that our total came out to be just over $100, because the quality of the food we had was not even worth half that. \n\nOutside of the lie that they call burgers and the slow service, there was one slight positive. The fries were decent and when served with flavored mayo was a cool concept. My mayo had pine nuts in it, which was novel to me. We also split a regular sized pulled pork poutine. The fries were a tad overdone and the pork a bit dry, but overall, not too shabby. The other Yelpers who had come by before me were right--if you have no other options and absolutely must come here, just get the fries. \n\nOtherwise, walk the other way and don't look back. My meal was a waste of my time and calories. I felt I had tainted my body after consuming such sub-par fare. It's a shame I hadn't heeded the Yelp reviews before falling for this trap.

With a name like East Side Mario's, I had envisioned a dark, humble Italian joint, ideally with herbal vapors emanating from the kitchen and mobsters conspiring in dark corners. I instead was confronted with the grim reality of a brightly-lit eyesore and surmise that a garage sale smeared itself on the walls, leaving a hideous befuddlement of flotsam and jetsam stuck there.\n\nOur waiter was reminiscent of the annoying Joe Pesci character in the Lethal Weapon movies, a ceaseless amphetamine fueled chatterbox with no visible Off switch and an unawareness that we simply wanted our orders taken sans the life story. I kept wishing Riggs and Murtaugh would appear to nightstick this character back to the kitchen, or at minimum, someone else's table.\n\nDisinclined to be falsely polite, I showed grossly uncharacteristic self-restraint by contorting my mouth into a rictus of artificial congeniality for the sake of my dinner companion. Somehow, we managed to work our orders in edgewise, immediately regretting our lack of judgment in neglecting to order something stronger than imported beer. Vigilant as a hyperactive mongoose, our waiter continued to stop by, interrupt our conversation and inject his unprofessional prattle of humorless jokes, pointless anecdotes and irrelevant real life stories told in real time. \n\nOccasionally, our waiter would begin backing away from our table while he was still talking, and I realized that this was his means of propulsion. Orally expelling vast quantities of air is how beings from his planet achieve locomotion.\n\nOur pasta dishes were delivered on a torrent of verbiage, and were unmemorable. Powerless to simply talk and enjoy our time together, my date and I rapidly devoured our mediocre meals and requested the bill before our waiter had a chance to assault us with another extensive inane story. Just beyond the door came the sweet siren song of a marvelous land filled with freedom and peace. The parking lot. And, we eventually made it.\n\nWith the unremarkable food, and service that still makes me wake up screaming, I'd rather eat a bullet than eat at East Side Mario's again. I might be out of line in suggesting that Mario have his decorator and waiter whacked. Might be. I got a gift certificate to East Side Mario's from a friend, so my Husband and I thought we would make it a date. One thing that is nice about the location is it is right in the mall, even though you have to go outside, so its a easy choice after some shopping or a movie.\n\nWe were greeted right away by the hostess and were told it would be a 10/15 minute wait for the dining room. They gave us a balloon to hold, which I'm sure I would love if I was 5. There isn't much area to wait in so we had to stand near the front door and freeze a bit. Their lounge looks nice, 6 TVs to watch a game on. While we were waiting the hostesses, were all standing together making weird noises and laughing a lot, seemed immature to me. The 10 minutes passed quickly and we were seated in a booth right off the front door and secluded from the main restaurant area, which turned out to be a bit chilly. Our waiter, Chris, came and asked us for our drink order. He brought us some water while we waited for our drinks. I ordered a Nochino Sour, their featured drink and when it arrived it was missing the maraschino cherry. I told him the cherry was missing, he asked if I wanted it, I said yes. He took off and returned with 6 cherries for me, which made me really happy, since I could eat a whole jar of them. The drink itself was amazing! \n\nWhen he came to take our food order I asked how the Hells Kitchen Chicken was, he said it is the spiciest dish on the menu, his favorite. I decided on that and my Husband got the lasagna. We both ordered garden salads, which are complementary, so Chris brought us a big bowl of that, along with our little loaf of bread. I am always one to take full advantage of free food, so we got another bowl of salad and another 2 loaves of bread. The salad was good, mostly just lettuce, the bread was hot and fresh. We waited a good 20 minutes for our food. My chicken turned out to be a reasonable portion, one chicken breast, along with spaghetti and roasted veggies. I could tell the chicken was frozen, it wasn't very fresh tasting at all. The tomato sauce over it was not that spicy. The veggies were a bit shrivelled. Overall everything tasted okay. Chris was very attentive during our meal. He cleared the plates promptly. Our bill with 2 drinks each and 2 entrees came to $64.\n\nThe service at East Side was great, that is what would influence me to go back. The food was good, not the most amazing I've ever had, although the drinks were awesome. Rob & I got to enjoy this Chinook location at least once, so we\'re grateful for that. The waitress was fairly friendly, and we got free salad and free bread, we were almost too full to order after that lol. The decor was very "New York". When we tried to go here again not so long ago, we were told it\'s permanently closed. Just thought we\'d share that, but don\'t worry, there are other locations in Calgary :) I think there might be something wrong with me, because I don't like East Side Marios. I don't find it particularly appealing, and yet everytime I get dragged here for birthdays or dinners we end up waiting for ages in a crowd of people to get a seat. Did I miss a memo or something? Is there some hidden beauty here? I always feel like a snob, but I just don't like it.\n\nThe food tends towards mediocre, the servers are always hurried and busy, and are often snotty too. Yeah, definitely not a fan. I can make my own crappy pasta in store bought sauce, I don't need to pay three times as much for an entr\xc3\xa9e. The d\xc3\xa9cor does not appeal either. It just doesn't feel worth it. East Side Mario\'s has always been a wannabe Olive Garden in my books. I mean, the bread, the salad and the fare, it\'s pretty much the same thing but not as good.\n\nI don\'t love the food, I don\'t love the service but to be fair, I DO love the atmosphere of the place. The decor and ambiance has a lot more character than The Olive Garden, but the food isn\'t half as good. \n\nWhen I\'m going out to eat, I care most about the food that I"m eating. East Side Mario\'s may get 4 stars for decor and ambiance, but when it comes to service and the quality of the food, it comes out with an overall score of 2 stars.\n\nSorry guys, but when it comes to eating, it\'s definitely food over matter.

Update: Campania redeemed itself. Obviously my last experience was a one-off bad night. Food and service was great once again. I had to bump my previous review down from a 5 to a 4 simply because their valentines day menu was completely different this year. Although their food was still fresh and tasty, their menu wasn't pre-fixe like it was last year. I was a bit disappointed because we drove 45 minutes to come here for the occasion and was a bit taken back. I hope they post their valentines menu up in advance on their website like they did last year for next valentines day. Went for very first time this Tuesday evening. Great service and excellent food. I enjoyed the Chicken Marsala. It was wonderful. Great, hot bread, olives and olive oil for dipping before entree was served. Can't wait to go back. Really enjoyed the overall experience and highly recommend it. We had a recent work dinner at Campania after a split second decision to go here as it was close to the office. In retrospect it was a terrible decision and one we regretted almost instantly. \n\nOur dinner unfolded like a Greek tragedy, it started okay but then descended into chaos and sadness. We started the meal after being sat in the back room by waiting...and waiting, almost 20 minutes later the waiter came back to take drink orders, keep in mind we were one of two tables at the time. \nA lack of service was a theme throughout the entire meal as we had long stretches of time without any service. They did not have three wines I tried to order, a beer, and multiple menu items, specifically shrimp which is a major part of their seafood options. I ordered the "wild salmon" and asked it be served with risotto. After eating a few bites the authenticity of the wild nature of the fish came into question. I asked the server to verify for me that it was in fact wild and, after an hour and the end of dinner, I still did not have my answer. I did not finish my meal as the salmon was overcooked, under seasoned, and terrible. The risotto was also a let down, there was zero flavor and it had the consistency of loose gruel. \n\nOur business partner who is in town ordered the pork chop which was burned and inedible. His meal also went unfinished.\nOur meal took almost 3 hours. Other tables were seated, served, and left before we could get out of there. At every point in this meal the miss-steps added up and increased our disappointment. Another colleague ordered the seafood pasta (minus shrimp of course) and most of the few clams that were in it we\'re dead and closed. On the plus side the calamari appetizer was not bad and the first round of bread was good. The second round of bread was hard and terrible, the olive oil for dipping was insipid though the olives in the dish was a nice touch. The arancini appetizer was under seasoned, gruel like consistency, lacked the cheese and prosciutto referenced in the menu, and was generally lackluster. \n\nOverall would I recommend this restaurant? Without reservation I can say absolutely not.\nI will note that our waiter was pleasant, though ineffective, which may have been due to his only working there for 2 months. While I don\'t like to hate on servers too much, his general pleasant attitude could not make up for the level of service we received. He did end up taking 2 meals off the bill which I thought was appropriate because they were inedible. \n\nI wanted to like this place, its close to our office and having good options close by is always a plus, but nothing we experienced lets me ever argue for going back. Oh, one more thing, the room was unpleasantly warm which made for an uncomfortable dining experience for everyone, exacerbated by the lack of water refills.\n\nI hope this restaurant improves and future diners enjoy it but we will not be returning. Absolutely outstanding food! Everything is served fresh and to perfection. I came here for Valentines Day with my girlfriend, being the first time to Campania, and I must say the experience made us want to come back again! Very kind wait staff and the atmosphere is romantic and quaint. Definitely would recommend this place!

avoid,. We went because they accepted credit card and the menu pictures posted outside looked delicious. The food is bland and flavorless. This is the worst, goddamn restaurant and meal I have ever had in my life. Where do I even begin?\n************************************************\nIf I could give NO STARS I WOULD.\n************************************************\n1. Terrible service \nShe did not speak basic English. I tried in French. No can do either. I would have tried in Chinese but I don\'t speak it. I finally pointed out on the menu what I meant by "is it breast or the leg?"?\n\n2. FILTHY, FILTHY, DISGUSTING DAMN bathrooms\nThe soap dispenser? Doesn\'t work.. I had to... *vomit*.. put my fingers in the soap dispenser that had an open top, to try and SCOOP out some of the liquid soap to use to wash my hands.\n\nThere was pee all over the seat. The bathroom had not been cleaned in a long, goddamn time. It stank, and I had to go to another cleaner place to re-wash my hands.\n\nIf they don\'t care about the bathrooms, imagine their kitchen. IMAGINE HOW DISGUSTING IT MUST BE. I wish I had checked the bathroom before I ate. I\n\n3. The meal itself was terrible\nDry, old, disgusting. The only thing they got right was the white rice.\n\n4. Mandatory 10% tip\nWTF IS THIS S#%(*#? ... I was so disgusted by the entire meal, and the entire experience, I was going to do the unthinkable and leave $0 because I was so incredibly turned off (I burn all my bridges when I will never come back). Instead, I was \'forced\' to leave a 10% tip. This is your average Chinese restaurant if you are looking for BBQ styled meat. I ordered the BBQ pork and duck on rice with a large coffee/milk tea. Portion was huge for me. Came with the two type of meat, lightly cooked lettuce, pickled veggies, rice and dipping sauce. The BBQ pork was on the drier side which was difficult to eat. Duck was good, again nothing special. The drink came in a to go cup which was great, and it tasted really good! I would come back for the drink but not for the food. Not a bad place for a quick bite! Along with a variety of Cantonese dishes, they also serve BBQ plates such as roast duck and pork. Highly recommend the $5.99 special from 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm where you get a free drink and small snack! You can even order the red bean ice milk shake which is a stellar deal. Caution you that their service is not the best and renovations would be nice but what can you say to good and cheap Chinese food in the middle of Chinatown? Awful customer service by one of our waiters. Second waiter was quite nice, but it really sucked being in the first guy's presence. \n\nPretty good prices, not very high. \n\nFlies openly swarmed the restaurant tables and there wasn't much effort made in controlling 'em (EEK!!!). \n\nWe ordered their shrimp rice roll, satay beef noodle soup, chicken curry over white rice and har gao. Definitely liked the shrimp rice roll flavoring a lot and chicken curry taste was good too. Taste of food is slightly milder than other Chinese restaurants and this is very likely due to them NOT using MSG, but the food was definitely quite enjoyable! \n\nDim sum takes longer to make, but everything else on the menu is brought out lickety-split. Honestly, if it weren't for the attitude of the one waiter and the flies, this would've gotten a solid 3.5 based on price and food quality alone.

We went to Buttitta's last night. We had made reservations and were sat quickly. The dining room was really beautiful; big chandeliers, candles on the tables, cloth napkins, big picture windows. It was a large dining room, but didn't feel large. It still felt intimate. It quickly got pretty full in the dining room. I was pretty surprised since we were there early. Still though, I never had a problem with noise and could hear my husband quite easily (should be noted that I only have about 50% hearing in my left ear). Point being, it's a large space, but not noisy. \n\nWe ordered the radicchio with goat cheese and pistachio filling for an appetizer. Unfortunately, they said that it was no longer being served since it hadn't been too popular. Not a problem! We got the calamari. I'm not so much of a seafood fan, but my husband is. He loved it! It wasn't overly breaded. Wasn't over cooked. Very nicely done. Thumbs up!\n\nWe had two house salads. I loved the house Italian. Seemed that it was a raspberry vinaigrette. LOVED it! The dressing was light, the greens were fresh and crisp. It came with some kind of Parmesan crisp. Yummy.\n\nWe used to be huge Dom's fans, so of course we had to go for the Galena and Chicken a la' Dom, and split each. It was very reminiscent of what we got at Dom's, but dressed up a bit. It was a nice, generous portion. Each plate had a scoop of spaghetti with marinara and sauteed onions and peppers in addition to the entree. The Chicken a la Dom was so delicious. The sauce was creamy and cheesy. The Galena was equally as delicious. \n\nFor dessert we had the creme brulee. It's not your typical creme brulee, but l was pleasantly surprised. It's hard to explain, but it was layered and has kiwi and strawberries sliced in it. It was delicious. \n\nAs for the service...A+! Our waiter was Jesse, a nice young man. As soon as we sat down and got situated he was right there. Very quick! \nDid a nice job suggesting wine for me. Our service was prompt, our waiter was polite. There was a kid coming around who never let my water glass get less than half full. \n\nOur appetizers, salads and entrees were perfectly timed, never felt rushed. Our appetizer was yummy and crisp, the house dressing was delicious, our entrees came out hot and wonderful. \n\nI've read previous reviews and I think that maybe it can be attributed to a new restaurant working the kinks out. My husband and I had a nice evening and great dinner. Thank you! While the food here is ok, the service experience was horrific. Our 7:30 reservation was not seated until after 8:30, and our food did not arrive until almost 10 (despite ordering promptly). It appeared to be understaffed as well, as tables would get up and not be bussed for 15-20 minutes. (It was all size groups too, we were a group of 6, but the table behind us was a group of 2 that took even longer to get their food, and was seated at the same time). \n\nOur waitress was very nice and attentive, and I felt for her, because there was really nothing she could do about it. There is only so much bread and apologies can make up for however when you are overbooked, understaffed, and the kitchen is unimaginably slow. I definitely will not eat here again. What a complete waste of my time, money, and patience. Service was adequate, food was cold and unappetizing. I ordered the special- hangar steak with asparagus tips and shoestring potatoes. It sounded good, but what I received was far from it! The cut of meat was unidentifiable- pre-sliced and presented rare (I ordered medium) and cold, covered in a pile of what looked (and tasted) like the scrapings from the bottom of the deep-fryer with a couple of spears (spears- not tips) of asparagus chopped up and thrown in. I sent it back and was told by the waitress that it would be re-made. It was not. The steak slices had been microwaved. The "shoestring potato" and asparagus mixture had been recycled as well. Oh-yeah- and it was now barely warm, an improvement in their eyes apparently. We complained to the manager, but got no discount or accommodation. He was in fact cavalier throughout the discussion. We paid our full bill, but WILL NOT return! Ate here once during its first couple of weeks. The place was mobbed, but I have no idea why. The decor was bad, and -- much worse -- the fish was half-cooked. We sent it back, and it then came back a mess. Simply inedible. We complained -- and the management gave us a complimentary glass of wine! These folks did not know how to run a restaurant. My first experience at this restaurant was exceedingly terrible. Spend the night in the ER terrible.\n\nTo make up for it, the owner gave me and a friend the opportunity to come back for a meal on the house. While other people told me not to go, I figured as long as I went armed with an epi-pen when the restaurant wasn't too busy, I had a shot at survival.\n\nTonight, the restaurant was operating at a much more comfortable pace. I talked to the chef. I had a delicious dinner - maybe not $14 worth of delicious, but still, a pretty solid dish. The staff was friendly and attentive. I am not sure if it is because they almost killed me, or if it is because that is how they normally operate.\n\nI will go back one more time when I am not getting complimentary service to see just how the kitchen operates. But, this place is a pretty solid choice for a night out for a nice dinner.

Excellent casual business lunches - salads, sandwiches - always freshly prepared and consistent quality. Family owned. A great hidden gem that I stumbled upon near work. Great lunch specials, decent prices and good food. I went for the Italian wedding soup and 1/2 portobello mushroom sandwich, and that was filling. Super nice staff. Thumbs up from me. Will definitely be back. Delicious turkey, spinach, feta, and tomato sandwich. Excellent dressing and quality bread choice. The turkey could be higher quality / more flavorful, but the overall experience was great. Large cookies are almost a second meal! Reasonable prices for the business district. Great lunch option. Average food, the best stuff is on their specials menu, which you can only find in the restaurant. I usually splurge (10 dollars) on a medium sized sweet balsamic salad when it's raining and I can't bear to leave my office building. Other than that, I wouldn't spend the money to dine here. Maybe if the prices dropped it would move to a 4 star rating. Average food nothing special. Convenient to work. Walk to market square for better options. Service is below average.

My husband I come here regularly to play trivia with each other during happy hour. I tried the new mole sauce they have on special. The server was very helpful in recommending a sample before dousing my naked wings in the sauce. His opinion is that it\'s a bit sweeter than you\'d expect, and I totally agree - don\'t expect Mexican mole flavor at a BWs :)\n\nService is always great here, and the food is as decent as any typical sports bar and grill. I always get their salads or naked wings, though I\'ve enjoyed their garlic mushrooms. I wouldn\'t mind them to fry their "chips" (wavy potato slices, not your standard chip) more so that they are crispy. We frequent this BW3. We have consistently good food here. The service has improved immensely in the past few years. Our waiter today, Julian, was timely and professional and friendly. Ignore older, negative reviews. 5PM is not only Happy Hour, but it\'s children\'s hour. Have a beer and bring your small children. At least, that\'s my impression of the place. The noise level is typically such that an excited kid or crying baby doesn\'t bother anybody. \n\nThat\'s not to say it\'s a bad environment. In fact, it\'s just the opposite. It\'s a standard for watching a Thursday NFL Network game, a Brewers game airing on some obscure semi-private regional cable sports network, or bringing a couple of friends to play video trivia. The 472* television screens make it possible to watch a lot of things at once glance. \n\nThe food? It\'s certainly not gourmet, but it\'s good and it\'s inexpensive. The wraps are a favorite of mine, and of course you can\'t go wrong with Wing Tuesdays or Boneless Thursdays. The hot sauces offer a lot of taste with the heat, and my observation is if you\'re picky about your heat, go one level lower than you get elsewhere. In other words, their "Medium" would qualify as "Hot" most other places. \n\nThe service has always been good for me here. Some nights the food appears within just a few short minutes. Even on nights I have had sub-par service, they have gone out of their way to make it right. \n\nIt\'s a good mix of sports bar and family restaurant. It\'s a good choice no matter the occasion, and the solid menu offerings make it a tasty outing. \n\n*Completely inaccurate guess. Let\'s just say there\'s a lot of televisions. This place is great to watch a game!! There are TVs everywhere! The service is usually great and you cant beat their wings. For Madison I feel that they are on the pricier side but I guess you are also paying for the space; it's huge!!\n\nBBW has great wings!! And they are also introducing limited time wing sauces that I'm always excited to try! Food: atrocious, not to mention mysterious. See photos for evidence.\n\nAmbiance: can't speak for it, picked-up our company lunch from here today\n\nPrice: meh, $9.29 for 8 wings with a side of fries plus carrots and celery seems like a good enough of a deal... if you actually get real chicken. Again, reference the photos.

I loved every aspect of my recent stay at HVH! Is it weird that I had the Jetson's theme song stuck in my head most of the trip? From the moment you pull up, you feel like you're inside someone's idea of the future. From the mid-century furniture to the color palette, you're inside a Sirkian melodrama for sure. \n\nUntil, that is, you arrive in your nicely appointed room and see the updated rooms with huge soaking tubs, glass showers, a veritable wall of mirrors and a nice flat screen. In my room, the patio doors opened onto a veranda with nice outdoor furniture, and provided a healthy dose of Scottsdale sunshine right inside my room. \n\nWell-stocked minibar and snacks, and a wonderful in-room dining menu rounded out a perfect stay. Every interaction I had with any member of the staff here was tops, and the pool areas are gorgeous. A lively outdoor patio bar scene made me feel like I was right in the middle of something really fun, and the in-room continental breakfast I had on my last morning was worth every penny. The decor is not for everybody, I call it Jetson's meet Ian Schrager. Very convenient location for access to Scottsdale or Phoenix. I often walk to the local restaurants that I like (no DUI or photo ticket issues), Trader Vics is just next door if you are into that. Rooms are very roomy and clean. Spa and work out area are great. Very airy with adequate equipment. They run occasional specials for Spa treatments which I have taken advantage of making it very reasonable. Not crazy about the pool area but it is OK and haven't eaten at the hotel restaurant despite staying here several times. FWIW, I prefer the Valley Ho to the near by Kimpton which Yelpers seem to love (The Fire Sky). So just how great is this hotel?\n\n1. I live about 5 miles south and I've booked 3 long weekends in the next couple months. Locals would call it a staycation, but because of the hotel's stylish rooms, close-to-everything location and top-notch service, it always feels like a dreamy out-of-town vacation.\n\n2. As public relations professional, I'm often asked about my favorite spots to stay in Scottsdale. The Hotel Valley Ho is always my must-book recommendation. In fact, our entire staff stays here as a group a few times a year. \n\n3. It's the definition of fun, energetic hospitality. Pamper yourself with a bedside dinner, or meet new friends at the pool over cocktails. No matter where you are on the property, an upbeat hotel representative is there to make the stay uh-amazing. \n\nAlways. I think the best way to describe this place is that it is a "grower not a shower"! \nStaying for 3 nights in May for our anniversary was a fun choice for adventure, location & affordability! \nThe highlights are: \nThe walkable distance to tons of local down town fun,\nthe friendly staff, the delicious Bath Amenities, the passable pool w great lounge chair service, \nand the 24 hour room service that takes less than 30 mins on average... \nThe part that fails to impress is the fact that the entire set up is basically a Motel 7 if run by the Jetsons! \nThe grounds are lush enough and we were lucky to not overpay too much (thanks to Expedia) to stay in a spot (5201) where we could only barely view the parking lot and had what some might consider a semi-private balcony on the second floor, baring that there are people on the walkway entering and exiting their rooms across the way who can see you at all times... \nWe gather maybe the Tower rooms facing the Mountain would be the most fun but while we requested "the tallest floor possible" this was apparently not an option (although it was listed as cheaper than what we paid for our second floor motel set up) Lame sauce!\nYes, the bath tub w mood lighting in our room was a plus and yes, the TV sucks but who cares?!?\n Also the Valet parking was such a cluster-F when we pulled in at 6pm on Thurs that we ended up self parking at the Sands lot and having the bellhop help us in w our luggage from there and it was a great choice so we had easy access to our vehicle all weekend w/out the hassle of the valet kids and the $15 a day fee...\nSo our general consensus was that this was a fun place to stay but there is little-to-no luxury to be had, so if you don\'t come expecting any you won\'t be let down! Me and my boyfriend Cannes here Saturday since our flight and cruise to Cuba got cancelled due to hurricane Irma this is our favorite place here in Scottsdale. Judy the concierge is always attentive and great. Travis is a great bartender at the inside bar and glad u have him he is attentive and goes above and beyond. The staff is amazing and is making our stay very enjoyable. Few names that I want to mention matt and Steve at the pool are great and it's a pleasure to be talking to them. We be here for 4 more days so I will get more names.

Usually very busy. I've been here several times and very satisfied everytime. Portions are very big. I usually order chicken pakora, chilly chicken and a noodle. Trying to find parking during busy hours may take some time. I call for delivery but the dont do that . Can you please correct that . Not accurate information . Interesting Chinese/Indian/West Indies mix.Large portions, food was decent and definitely worth it for the price. I would go again if I visited Toronto in the future. \n\nI would recommend take out over eating at the restaurant (might be worth it if you wanted to feed a large party good food for a reasonable price). Call ahead because they are a little slow. I have only eaten Hakka Chinese twice in my entirely life. The first experience made me scared to try it again and the second well was pretty good but again reluctant to give it another go.\n\nWell that has all changed. I ordered from Super Hakka last night as I had guests that were in the mood for it. Found Super Hakka on Yelp and decided to take the plunge glad we did.\n\nOrder was Manchurian Chicken, Chili Beef, Szechuan Fried Rice, Chicken Fried Rice etc.\n\nFood arrived on time. The first thing that we all noticed were the extremely generous portions. Extremely HUGE. The fried rice container was so stuffed rice was spilling out.\n\nOverall really great experience. I ate here the other day. The chilli chicken was good and the order came in quick. I don't think I even waited 10 minutes, I don't know if that's a good thing or not. The food tasted good, some sketchy pieces of chicken in my order (chewy with no meat). Definitely not the best Hakka food I've ever had but not the worst. The place looks a bit worn down, the wall paper in the booth I was sitting in was coming off the wall. Aside from all that, it wasn't an awful experience and I would come back again to try other dishes. If you are in the area craving Hakka food, do stop by.

I don't easily give 5 stars, and after reading some of the reviews, I was skeptical but my dinner was excellent. Everything was wonderful. The wait staff was very pleasant and very helpful. Prices are super reasonable. Groupon got me to drive from Downtown LV, but I will make the trek for that quality of food at regular prices any day. \nOh, and I didn't see any chicken hearts or stuff like that. But maybe I didn't get the special menu or something. Saw an ad in the chinese newspaper and thought why not! Located SW of Las Vegas and across Desert Breeze park, its a nice small place that serves up gigantic boba/slushy drinks! Most of them are priced around $2.85 and are all full of flavor. Got the coconut and passionfruit slushy which came in a gigantic tub-like cup!\n\nAlso ordered the 6 skewer special which was okay tasting. I chose the chicken gizzard, chicken heart, pork, lamb, and ribeye. They could have added more seasoning onto the meat to get more flavor but eh. however, the meat was grilled to perfection and very chewy but honestly, you can't really get full on the skewers alone which is why you shouldn't come if you're super hungry. The garlic butter mussels are delish! but of course you can't get full on that either. The BeeGee's sizzling platter is probably the only thing that I got full on since it came with porkchop, beef, and chicken plus rice and the flavor was quite savory.\n\nPros: gigantic drinks!\ntasty skewers\n\nCons: price for skewers (probably won't get full unless you order a lot) The name intrigued me and the location was convenient from where we were. We figured what the heck:\n\nOrdered:\nMiso Soup - Did not receive\nSpicy Udon - Small presentation, but it was actually filling and tasty.\nGyoza - Did not receive\nCurry Noodle Beef - got a curry chicken rice bowl instead. \nIcy Slushy (Small)\n? Slushy (Small) - I apologize... I forgot what Jade ordered, but we didn't receive it.\nTempura Ice Cream\n\nPros: \n* Spicy Udon was favorable \n* Slushy Cups were a bit different. Size large almost was like a to-go soup container\n* The drinks itself were quenching.\n* I liked the way the place was decorated\n* Easy parking\n\nCons:\n* We didn't receive half of our order\n* We managed to get a curry chicken rice bowl instead of curry beef noodles\n(I don't know how this happened. She even read our order back to us).\n* It was obvious that they forgot to give us some of our food, but instead of apologizing, they manipulated our receipt to make it look like we never ordered it. \n\nIn the restaurant's defense... I can't 100% for sure say that this is what happened with the food that never made it to our table. I am just assuming since the kitchen looked confused when they had our dishes sitting on the counter towards the end of our meal and then we saw them look at our receipt and re-enter stuff into the register before giving us our bill. They could of easily just apologized for forgetting and ask if we still wanted the stuff. \n\nOverall:\n\n I gave a two stars for the prices, menu selection, and decor. The food was nothing out of the ordinary. It's not somewhere I'd make a journey to get to. Orders took a long time to come out and half of our order never even made it. We normally would have complained and said something, but we were on a timed schedule and had no time. A simple apology, better organization, and more stand out menu items would have given the place a better score, but for now... I've experienced better. Sorry BeeGee! When I asked "what\'s fusion about the food" and got a blank look and response. I knew I was in trouble here. i was already inside and figured i might as well. \n\nTeriyaki chicken bowl was pretty basic, tasted sweet in a bad way. The shrimp lo-mein wasn\'t that good also the shrimp was over cooked and tasted just wrong. Order 2 tiny tasteless beef skewers for almost $3 laughed when I saw it. The beef curry was the only good tasting dish but still basic.\n\nThe interior was nice for dining in and I think they have a drive through. But the portions were small, food OK, and over priced. I have visited a couple times after the owner change and... it is pretty much a different restaurant now. I really enjoyed the yakitori that was available before and pretty much all that is available now is chicken, chicken heart, wings, fish tofu (?), and squid balls. \n\nHibachi and udon stir fry is what they're all about. Not for me, as I don't see it as an healthy alternative anymore with all the sauce and whatnot, but if you're craving some noodles or a hot plate then BeeGee is certainly an option!

I loved it! Was in the mood for some Bao and got exactly what I was looking for. Nice menu, not too much not too little. Very laid back atmosphere and pleasant staff. Excellent food for an excellent price!! The baos were very flavorful. My favourite was the fish and the pork belly baos. A must try, is the poutine with Kimchi, and the fried Oreo ice cream dessert!!! So delicious, you will come back for more!!! Thank you Bao Boys!!!! Super cher pour de toutes petites portions. C'\xc3\xa9tait bon, mais pas assez pour le prix ( deux tranches de concombre+ un morceau mis\xc3\xa9rable de salade+ un bout de poisson perdu au milieu du mini bao)\nLes frites \xc3\xa9taient surgel\xc3\xa9es... Et en plus, il y en avait pas beaucoup! Tant mieux ! C'\xc3\xa9tait pas bon ! Classic bao was the best I'd had in a long time! The kimchi poutine is brilliant. Apparently they just got their liquor license last week before our visit, which is great because this is perfect drinking food. Salmon bao also quite good. Friendly service. It's good to see a bao spot open up in MTL. Their flavors are good, especially the fried fish and Korean-style beef. Their sweet potato fries are also good. My only critique would be that at $4 per bao, they could be a little bigger.

Wow. I came here on the off chance from the good Yelp review and had the best fish tacos I've ever had. Such a generous portion of fish in each taco with a lovely sauce and the usual trimmings of shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes and cilantro. With the addition of some lovely spicy marinated red onions. And the chips were sensational. Insanely good red and green salsa, very good guacamole and chips. The chicken taco is very likeable. The shredded beef taco is good but could use more spice. Good queso fundido. This restaurant is impeccable. The food is incredible, the service is warm, the atmosphere is cozy. I love the open kitchen, too. This restaurant is so underrated, and I often wonder why: it's authentic mexican food in Montreal; a rare gem. Highly, HIGHLY recommended. Nice find in Montreal! Overall good food and authentic. Black beans had no flavor but everything else we ordered was good. I went purely on the reviews from Yelp, and frankly, was very disappointed. My rating is really a 1.5 star. We ordered the guac and chips as a starter- this was fresh, just mashed guacamole with some coriander and very little seasoning. The "homemade" chips were very greasy. The guacamole was overpriced at $8.99 for a small cup. Our mains were the real disaster. My companion had marinated pork tacos...Oh boy, the pork was so incredibly dry like the bottom of a shoe!!! There was no juice left on that poor sucker, and since we heard the microwave go off a few times while there, we really believe that pork has been reheated and recooked to oblivion a few times. The corn taco in which the pork was put was also extremely dry and like a shoe as well. My dish, enchilada with green sauce was like baby food. Boiled bland chicken stuffing in a corn shell that was drenched in VERY sour green tomatillo sauce, and some bland melted cheese. There were three pieces and I had 1.5 of that in pure starving desparation. A tiny little cup of black beans (extremely runny and no flavor, had one spoon and that\'s it) and bland rice rounded out my (NOT) winner of a dish.\n\nService was blah. The girl serving us was not very helpful and totally distracted. Because this place is in a basement, it has a very strong smell of mold. It washed over us as soon as we walked in and was strong enough that my friend wanted to leave. \n\nWe went in hopes of finding this "secret" that Yelp reviewers were raving about, but alas, it\'s back to the drawing board. Places closer to downtown, such sa La Tamalera and Ta Chido (a place I had problems with...review to follow) are better than this!!\n\nGotta go now and drink some fizzy water to try and wash out that sour unsettling feeling from the green sauce!!

Just ordered from Uber eats, it got here fast. I will not order again though. We got tacos and a burrito, and a tres leches for dessert. Can't say anything was good. Too salty, too greasy, lacking with fresh flavour. The cake was soggy even. I'm sure it would have been passable if I was intoxicated. This is an inexpensive and casual taco spot that can't be beat! They have taco specials daily, and their $1 tacos are only slightly smaller than their regular ones. The Hubster and I came out of here with a roughly $20 bill and were quite satisfied. The chorizo tacos are juicy and flavourful. \n\nService was a bit slow, but there isn't a ton of staff there, and the food is very fresh. This is definitely a spot to just sit, relax and enjoy the meal. I had the tacos and quesadillas on my first visit here and I really enjoyed it; the horchata was so good. The price point is on point, not as expensive as other Mexican restaurants in the downtown core. I'm definitely coming back. Hole-in-the-wall mom-and-pop budget Mexican place with a snack shop in the back. There's usually just one girl running the place and she's very nice. Vegetarians beware: it is pork heavy but there is veggie tamales ($3.50 each according to the menu, but who knows because I keep eating about $30 worth of food here with my friends every time). I think this is as close to authentic and low priced Mexican as you can get in Toronto. If you liked Tenoche you'll like this place. No room wasted on stupid lettuce and tomatos and sour cream or whatever white folk put in tacos these days. There is meat, onions lime and cilantro instead.\n\nRead this: They have barbecued tripa (tripe), lengua (tongue) tacos on the menu! YES! (Those were $12)\n\nThere's nachos with zesty hot salsa with every eat in meal. The chicken pozole ($5) is super savoury with pieces of shredded chicken, hominy, chiles and jalapenos (perfect for a cold day) and the bistek and tripe/lengua tacos came with a couple globs of fat but were not offensive. \n\nThey may be in a rush, the meat may be dry, and they don't double-tortilla your tacos like some tacquerias do but you will do just fine here. There is usually a taco special or deal every day of the week by the way. Not a nice experience. Tacos al pastor were tasteless, the salsas were not fresh, pretty old looking and tasting just old. My entry came after I finished my tacos, I ordered nachos with guacamole and they didn't have avocado so ok they brought them with beans. Again, nothing tasty to talk about it. A Pozole was brought and after a few minutes I had to ask for the toppings such as oregano, onion, salad. They didn't have coke or Pepsi which are basic drinks. Again, a big dishonour to Mexican food with these so called tacos. Avoid this place. I am giving 1 star only because the waiter was really trying her best. -

I think the food is good and we have been to many places it makes a difference you can see in the kitchen best to take out or have delivered. we find the food tasty we love the egg foo young the sweet & sour pork so good NO grease we have tried many dishes very satisfied if you want gourmet chinese then you want PF CHANGS PEOPLE if you want good chinese try it you will like it...... We went here the week they opened. Staff was nice but food wasn't anything to rave about. The Singapore noodles tasted fine but the curry seasoning was too strong for my mom's liking. The shrimp lo mein was ok but tasted a bit salty. Don't get me started on the fried rice. The fried rice had no flavor to it and was drowning in chopped onions.\n\nMaybe I'm just being harsh because there used to be a Yummy Grill next door but this doesn't hit the spot like other Chinese restaurants in the Henderson area. Place offers really sweet tasting spicy labled food got the special lunch currently experiencing diarrhea its been a good 10 miniute event \nThis is after trying this place\nWont be returning \nUnless i need diarrhea a few hours later DO NOT EAT HERE!! I came in and ordered takeout, while making one of the dishes The to go container fell in the floor and the man cooking picked it up and put it back on the counter to fill!!! I had to run up to the counter and tell the lady to stop him. \n\nThen, that got me curious what was going on back there so I started looking in the kitchen from the checkout counter. As soon as I started looking and they noticed, they closed all the lids over the food so I couldn't see or take pics. Needless to say I canceled my $50 order and went somewhere else. Staff was nice! Quick service! Authentic accents! Good food! Still pretty new. Clean inside! Fried rice needs some work. But triple delight was very good!

I love this place. This is exactly the kind of place I want to go to when I want to sit down, have a beer, and hang out with my friends. The beer selection is pretty good, although some are much better than others. I'd recommend having a sampler of six the first time you go to find out what you like, then stick with that. The food is very good as well. The last time I went I had the fish fry - the breading is different than normal, which is a good thing. Meh... is my opinion for this place at lunch time. It's a bar, not a restaurant. If it was dark and I had my beer goggles on I might have a different opinion.\n\nThey do have a soup and salad bar. It looks quite small, but actually has a decent selection to choose from and good quality stuff. Cheddar Beer soup was good. I added some croutons from the salad bar, yum! The BF and myself both took a vacation day last Friday (2.8.08) and decided on trekking up to Madison. We both really need a change of scenery as the city/winter was getting to us. I think we actually saw peeks of sun that day too! On our way home, we stopped off here for some grub. We literally had no expectations and I guess we didn't walk away overly impressed. It was just there. It really lacked character or something. We were there for happy hour and they do have good prices on their brewskies. Food was just ok...everything was beer battered! Needless to say, I don't think we will be racing to go back there again the next time we are in the area. I could see how te locals might like it, but overall was not impressed. I hate to do this, but I\'ve got to downgrade my previous review and say that JT\'s is just OK nowadays. I\'m still going there regularly after games and on Mug Club days but the last five or six times have been disappointing. First and foremost gripe: they lost my damn mug! What\'s the point of having a personalized mug when the bartender comes back with someone else\'s? As my buddy put it: "It\'s like you\'re mowing some other dude\'s lawn." Every time I mention it they\'ve said they\'ll make me up a new one, but to no avail. \n\nSecond gripe: new menu. Over the years I\'ve seen quite a few different menus but their previous incarnation was the best of them all. They changed it up again earlier this year and in the process eliminated most of my favorites. The one new item I was excited about, the catfish po\' boy, ended up being over-seasoned two out of three times, leading me to give up on it. \n\nThird (and final) gripe: the service is slipping. Now there were always times before where we didn\'t get the best service but the managers were always conciliatory and usually offered free drinks or something like that to make up for the mistakes. But lately we\'ve noticed that the new bartenders have a hell of a bad attitude and some of the servers are simply terrible. An Egregious Example: we were seated in the back due to a larger than usual group. The kid that seated us never sent a waitress, so I had to come up after 15 minutes. The waitress then didn\'t come back for our drinks, so I had to go up to the bar for refills. Then the food came out over 45 minutes after we ordered it, and one order was wrong. To top things off, we were charged for both the wrong and corrected entree. Wow! Now this doesn\'t happen all the time, but the bad experiences are cropping up with more and more regularity. Although it pains me to do it, JT\'s is now 3 stars and risks sliding lower. I truly hope that 2009 brings an improvement. We've been fans for a long time - finally writing it down! Love the Fish Fry - we think it's the best in Madison BY FAR. The breading is crispy and very different than anything else we've had anywhere. I almost always get the Bistro Salad - but also like the ease of their salad bar at lunch during the week where they have the same candied nuts that are on the Bistro Salad - but I can add as much as I like! The Reuben is also superb and have heard that from many others. I'm not a beer drinker, but my friends love their beers - especially the red and Frozen Tundra when it's in season. It's great to see a truly local restaurant make it for so many years with so many national chains in the market. Yeah JT Whitneys! We make it a habit to visit...and will because we love it! (oh! our kids love the S'Mores roasted AT YOUR TABLE!!! - what a fun treat!)

A group of friends and I were in town visiting and went to The Rib Cage for dinner. For starters, the order took 45 minutes to come out, too long. The candied yams were soupy and tasted like oranges. The mac'n'cheese was weird and looked like it was topped with nacho cheese and crushed saltine crackers. The hushpuppies and fried catfish were good but when the waiter FINALLY came back to refill our waters, he had a dish towel dangling from his hand that draped all over my fish as he reached for glasses....then he only filled 3 of the 4 glasses. They messed up p my friend's order and the waiter seemed irritated to fix this mistake even though it was his fault. The correction dish took ANOTHER 15 minutes to come out. On top of all this.....the bathrooms were nasty and unclean. I will NEVER be going there again. Disappointing is an understatement. came in here for lunch my first time in here very clean place i tried the polish boy and crazy fries and it was delicious staff very friendly i will come back top try something different because it all sounds so good I used to go to rib cage when it first opened in Cleveland Heights. It was amazing. Since then the food quality and service has just gone extremely down hill, unfortunately. I decided to visit the rib cage on w.25th, and it was pretty bad. I feel terrible because I was such a fan for a while... my bartender was so nice but I asked for a tequila and soda and the glass was filled 2/3 the way. My salad was not fresh, and I was not given silver ware twice, etc. they did do what they could to help but I'm pretty bummed. This is my walking distance dive bar destination. The kitchen is open way late, so if you get a hankering for some 1am wings they have you covered.\n\nThe staff is friendly and the food is pretty decent. Their fries have a Cajun sort of spice to them. They have a nice selection of fish fry meals as well. \nI ordered the chili this time, fully loaded. So they topped it with onions cheddar and sour cream. It has a sweet spice to it, I think they add brown sugar and cinnamon to the mix. They give you cornbread with it as well, which is a nice touch.\n\nThere's plenty of bourbon and whiskey to choose from. They have rotating drafts as well as a selection of bottles. There is no list, but the bartender will inform you if you ask. \n\nI usually sit at the bar with the other regulars, but there is table seating available. The bar can get a little chilly in the winter months due to its proximity to the door. I don't mind, I think the company is worth it. I feel awful about leaving this place a bad review because everyone there is very nice - but the food is abysmal. I\'m so sorry to say it but the meats I\'ve had there were very, very close to inedible. The smoked chicken was tough, fatty, and generally disgusting. The smoked brisket didn\'t taste bad but was as tough as shoe leather. This really should be a one star review, but again, I like the people. \n\nI\'ve tried several of their sauces, appetizers, and at least four different side dishes, and all were fine. So stick to the sides and skip the meat. Which is pretty bad for a smokehouse. \n\nI\'ve never been to their original location, but I did read the reviews after I went to this location. I think the original is averaging 4 stars because people like the club and music atmosphere of it - because quite a lot of the reviews say the food is bad. The guy that wrote "criminal meat preparation" got it exactly right.

We thought this sounded like a great place to eat so ordered carry out to take back to the hotel. We ordered General's chicken for my husband, sweet and sour chicken for my son and I asked for a spicy recommendation for myself and was told a salt and pepper shrimp would be good. We also ordered fried dumplings and crab Rangoon.\nEverything was okay, pretty average really. Doesn't compare well to what we have at home, but fairly average. Son was not impressed with his, hubs said it was ok, he's had better, and mine was, frankly, disappointing as the shrimp had a heavy breading on it, which I would never have ordered it if I'd known. No veggies or sauce of any kind came with it either, just breaded shrimp. We did like the fried rice a lot. The dumplings were ok, and the crab Rangoon was ok too, just not impressive or special in any way. \nI know this place has pretty high ratings, but in our opinions, just plain kind of average. We would not choose to go there again but hopefully it will be better for you! Snagged some takeout last week and was impressed enough to give it another try! \n\nThe location seems doomed, for the year and a half I've lived in the neighborhood there's never anybody inside. Though the staff was a lot nicer than I recall when it was Wong's. \n\nPrices are a bit high in my opinion given that the quality of the food isn't great. But it's a nice alternative to China Wok on Fordem if you're looking for something fast to pick up. The takeout is ready very soon, just about ten minutes. The food is very good, the portions are large, and the prices are quite reasonable. Good vegetarian options as well.\n\nEdit: as I've explored the menu over multiple visits, I've founds lots of things I like but quite a few that I did not like. Good: eggrolls, crab rangoons, chow ho fun, lo mein, Szechuan style string beans (my favorite). General Tso's chicken. Not good: The sweet and sour chicken (bland, completely plain fried chicken served with that orange sauce on the side), hot and sour soup (I didn't like the flavor or texture). By far the best, hot, delicious delivery food I've EVER gotten. Very quick, nice and tasty. Always recommend it to people -- you need to try it now. Delivery with NO eating utensils. Ugh!!! Shrimp fried rice and soup. But nothing to eat with and no napkins. \n\nI tried to eat my rice with coffee streets I had in my hotel room .

This is our go-to Sushi/Hibachi restaurant! Lunch or dinner, always amazed at the service speed, especially on hibachi. Typical hibachi joint dinners can last 2+ hours. Tokyo never rushes you, but more importantly, never makes you wait around for the next event/course. Gone with groups of 2 - 18, and always have had a great show and awesome meal. \n\nPrices are very reasonable for the amount of food, and cheap compared to most hibachi restaurants. Lunch specials are great (filet mignon hibachi lunch for $12?!? Can't miss!)\n\nSushi is very, very good. Some nice specialty rolls with all of your standard favorites. Presentation is usually quite nice! \n\nService is great, and the cooks are usually quite talented and fun. \n\nVery clean and nice ambiance. Management very friendly!\n\nA great hidden gem in Medina! How long has this been here and no one told me? A lot of the reviews on this page seem suspicious to me, but I actually mostly agree with the consensus. Good food, fair prices, cute atmosphere (if not a tiny bit gauche and ultra-lounge-ish). We ate the hibachi but didn't sit at the performance table, we sat in the bar area. The waitress and owner were very pleasant, and the serving sizes were huge (reminds me of Nagoya in Port Clinton. Food offering and prices almost identical), and it's one of the only affordable hibachi establishments in greater CLE. I highly recommend for anyone who appreciates hibachi. 4 sushi rolls... 40 minutes... on a Monday evening when nobody was here. Good luck!\n\nThe hibachi here is pretty solid and the chef puts on a great show. Steer clear of the sushi simply due to time. No sushi rolls should take 40 minutes. This was by far my best sushi experience since moving back to Ohio from California. My mom and I stopped in for a little night out together, and we were blown away. First off, our server, Alexander was Awesome! He was very friendly, timely, thorough, caring, efficient, etc... Just about any good word you can think of would describe his sincere work ethic. The sushi master also did an excellent job making our rolls. Everything tasted amazing! Very reasonable prices $2 and $3 happy hour rolls (Cali Roll and Shrimp Tempura were a couple of our favs). We also loved the atmosphere and concept. We heard a lot of laughing/fun on the hibachi side and then on our side it was more relaxed and personal. This would be a perfect spot for a little intimate/romantic night out or with friends/family. Check out the pictures to help bring this wonderful experience to life. Great atmosphere, and good food. Our cook was awesome. Interacted with the kids at our table, and had a personality - which is a must for an environment like this. Will be back for sure. Prices were reasonable. You MUST make a reservation. Tried last weekend without one and it was about an hour long wait.

Great place! I took my wife and daughter there last night, and we very much enjoyed our meals. I had the duck leg special...grilled and served with rice and spinach salad dressed with tahine. The chutney on the side was the best I've ever tasted. Just when you think Madison has run out of great restaurants to try, up pops this one! Give it a try! Exquisite Sephardic Jewish cuisine served with love. I started my lunch with a tasty bean soup and when I inquired about some hot sauce they brought out three piquant delights. One was a fig persimmon sauce, one a jalape\xc3\xb1o, cilantro, and basil pesto like paste, and the last was chile paste. \n\nThe lamb brisket sandwich was THE BEST sandwich I have had in years and probably the best in Madison! It was heaping with tender, slow cooked lamb chunks and topped with a crunchy slaw. The side spinach salad was perfectly dressed with a savory tahini garlic dressing.\n\nGreat find, I will back and have been getting the word out. Welcoming staff made me feel like I was being served by family and you'll love Layla's bubbling personality.\n\nI loved it so much I had to purchase their first gift certificate for a colleague of mine so she could have the opportunity to savor this deliciousness. Come here... Superb food from a small kitchen\nNew Park St restaurant where the old Taco Bell used to be. The home made food is delicious served by Layla herself the goddess of the kitchen. Items are family heirlooms delicately spiced and served in hearty helpings. I had the Shakshuka a tomato based entree topped with poached eggs and a gorgeous hunk of challah bread. My wife asked for a recommendation and was given a spicy, flavorful lamb stew over rice. The place is quaint and still being fixed up with oddball items decorating the open dining space. A wonderful relaxed dining experience. Much recommended. Tried this new place, I think a sister restaurant to Layla's on the square. As others have said, the dining room/d\xc3\xa9cor are in process but the food is ready to go! I thoroughly enjoyed the chicken and rice with salad, great seasoning on the chicken. The kale & cheese borekas were stellar too. Overall solid prices for super tasty food, and friendly service. Check it out! Not sure how long Noosh has been on Regent St. I have probably driven by a lot. And honestly I NEVER would have stopped on my own. I was supposed to meet my friend there. I sat in the car for about 10 minutes because I really didn't think this could be the restaurant. And I really didn't think that my friend could eat there as the building is one of those old metal things and I couldn't see a name on it anywhere. Granted it was dark. Maybe it is there somewhere. My daughter begged not to go in. But we were in the mood for a little adventure so in we went. \n\nInside was a bit better. The owner/cook/waitstaff was very friendly and took great pains to create a pleasant environment. We were told to sit anywhere. Since there are only about 4 spots and 2 of them were taken we settled ourselves in as far from the door as we could get. I do recommend dressing warm in winter. I had to leave on my coat as I was freezing already. Others seemed to be comfortable enough without coats. \n\nIf you loved Sofia's you should feel right at home here. It has a lot of that same charm. When an ingredient is gone. Well, it is just gone. It must have been a pretty busy night because many of the dishes were out. It is a small menu. So, we made our choices from the remaining options. I wish I could remember the names of the dishes. All I can say is WOW! All of the food was absolutely delicious! Being a vegetarian I get so used to feeling like a second class citizen! Well that was not the case here. Of the dishes most were veg. And there were all unique! I REALLY get sick of the same old mushroom sandwich or veggie burger. As veggies we often just get thrown a bone (so to speak) with out any real love. There was even one place that had a GREAT veggie pot pie but got rid of it and kept the chicken and beef pot pies even thought they sold out all of the time!!! Someone needs a vegetarian pot pie. Gerr. Anyway......each of the dishes came with a slaw of sorts. I have a thing against coleslaw. (I grew up next to a cabbage processing plant, enough said) But this slaw was WONDERFUL. I was trying to figure out the unique flavor. I think maybe a little sesame oil? SO GOOD. And the sandwich type flaky pastry things that we had were FABULOUS! Mine had a cauliflower filling and my daughter had a spicy cilantro, hard boiled egg, tomato filling and our friend had an eggplant filling. Let me repeat!!! YUM!!! \n\nMy friend also had the lentil soup which she said was great. The only reason that I am giving only 4 stars is because we had to order more food to feel full. Which was a great excuse to get the Porgies. Num Num!! I just wish there had been a option to maybe get a larger portion for a bit more money. I loved the food and will definitely go back!

Ok so when I went with a large group of people we literally filled the place. Drinks seemed to be strong...this could be because I hadn't eaten. As I am eating a GF, carb free diet I found the menu disappointing as there was not really anything I could eat (these days I am happy with a side salad, if need be!) \n\nSo yes, I felt like I got super drunk, the cocktail menu looked fantastic. \n\nThere is a smoking area out back. \n\nMusic was excellent, in our drunken happy state my friends and I sat singing and reminiscing!\n\nI actually like this place, I just need to make sure I eat before I go out! 'Lack of authenticity'\n\nAn unimaginative beachhead of white gentrification in an otherwise diverse Toronto neighbourhood. Bar Neon offers a crew of white servers, serving up mediocre food in one of Toronto's last creative peripheries. I went in and was disappointed by the beer selection but excited by the food. It's your classic millstreet menu and the same series of cocktails you find everywhere with zero imagination. Dark and stormy anyone? I had the cider. Good. I had the burger with salad. A bit of a rip off. 17.50 for under ripened lettuce and a burger that was nicely coloured inside but completely singed on the outside. It came complete with that delectable burnt flavour. No extra charge. I wasn't asked how anything was until the end and the burger was a mayo covered mess. The 'bun' seemed to have an identity crisis, unsure of what sort of bread it was trying to be (pita, yeastless catastrophe?). Anyway. Very disappointing food, drinks, and just not reflective of the neighbourhood whatsoever. The sort of place that is pandering instead of being. A complete lack of authenticity. Another patio in my neighbourhood I didn't know existed! Hurrah! There are still, I think, at least 30 days of patio sitting in this city's future. Maybe more if we're lucky. So, I will very likely be returning to this surprisingly large, wooden bench laden, warmly lit home of beer consumption again before year's end. I don't know why it had taken me so long to finally come here. I came here on the Labor Day Monday, in search of a patio, pint and food. Bar Neon delivered. \n\nGreat drink selection, especially a solid small draft selection of 6-7 beers plus a cider on tap. Also featuring a happy hour between 5-7pm for $5 pints and $1 oysters. The menu is Greek-inspired featuring Greek tapas, dips and dished to choose from. \n\nI enjoyed the chicken souvlaki with salad with a few pints on the patio. It was perfection. \n\nI can't wait to come back for some more drinks! Great neighbourhood find! This place was ok, but not great. I don't really get the appeal. \nWe went last week for a friends birthday. The place was packed and she had invited quiet a few people. \nBy the luck of my bulging preggy tums, we managed to swindle a seat at a table. There was another couple wanting the table too and we had no problem sharing. I had expected, from the reviews, that we would be able to get some decent snacks at this place. But the table service was over (we weren't there very late, maybe 9 or 9:30) and since the place was so packed it was really hard to get drinks, not to mention a bite to eat. From the looks of the drinks consumed at my table, and reactions of my friends, the drinks were definitely good. And not just mixed from a lame fountain where the bartender just pushes a pre-dosed button. That's bonus points for sure. But the food was blah. I just had an order of feta fries and didn't even finish them.\nThe music was good. Throwback to high school tunes for sure. But as another yelper mentioned, no room to dance anywhere if you tried. \nI don't want to deduct points on this place because it was so crowded. Not their fault. Good for them actually. But it's just not my vibe. Atmosphere was lacking, not worth it for me to want to repeat this place. \nFrom what I saw of the patio, it would probably be pretty sweet back there in better weather. Strange though that there was no music playing on the patio at all. Not even quietly. That alone would make it a temporary smoke spot, instead of an actual hang out for more drinks spot. Too desolate. \nSo really this place is middle of the road for me. Some good points, some bad. I'd give it a 2.5 stars if i could. But it's more of a 'meh' than an 'a-ok'...

If you're looking for decent food and quick service, this is the place! The drive thru window is possibly the best thing that a Japanese restaurant could have. For the price, the quality and quantity of good is unbeatable! This place is GOOD. My go to place for teriyaki chicken. Always has a pretty packed house especially between 11-1 seeing there's a ton of local businesses in the shopping center. Service is really fast and pretty spot on. Prices are amazingly cheap right around $6 with large portions. I haven't been to the Matthews location but I'm pretty sure they're just as good. For once I wanted to have lunch at the same time as everyone else and Thai Taste was just packed. This placed just opened up around the corner and I decided to give it a try. I ordered a miso soup and the sauteed veggies with rice. \n\nService was very good and quick and the miso soup was ok but beyond that it just ... sucked. Tasteless rice and boiled carrots accompanied greens sauteed in miso. I was hungry but I couldn't eat it most of the plate, it was like hospital food. \n\nSince the miso soup ($1.80) is not included and most dishes are $8 to $11 it's not only tasteless food but an expensive lunch as well. Just what the neighborhood needed, another boring American-Japanese cafeteria. I really like this place. Don't let the outside fool you, it's nicer inside. You order at the counter and they bring your food to the table. Pretty good food especially for the price. Great food and fair lunch prices! $6 lunch isn't too expensive. They also offer take-out and a drive-through. I go here all the time, keep it up Toyama!

I have been to this place numerous times and love it! I go to either this location (sunny meadow) or the one located on steeles in Brampton. It serves all day breakfast, lunch and dinner. When I do get to go, it's usually a sat or sun morning and can sometimes get pretty packed in there. There's plenty of booths for comfortable seating. I usually get eggs easy over, breakfast sausage, home fries and toast. May I add, their home fries are the best I've ever had! I have also tried their pasta in a ros\xc3\xa9 sauce for dinner one time and it was pretty good. Good pricing and staff are friendly. Don't have to wait long for food and it comes to your table tasting great! Giggling Tomatoes is good. But for some reason not quite good enough to have me crave it. It\'s not that it\'s bad. It\'s not. Like I said, it\'s good. But with so many other choices, one tends to seldom crave "good." Burgers, good. Fries, good. Peameal, tasty but thin. Zet\'s preferred by far. This restaurant (fast food place? You order at a counter and sit down to wait for your food to be brought to you) serves typical overpriced diner fare. I ordered chicken fingers and fries to be safe (just over $11). They were cooked from frozen (same with the fries). The atmosphere is a little unprofessional. There are dirty, ripped signs from "the management" taped around the restaurant. The menus are hanging from dusty strings over the cash. Many of the booth seats are cracked and stained. \n\nThe service was fine, but I wouldn\'t suggest this place at all. For the price, you generally get what you pay for. However, the service is consistently shit. Staff either don't care, don't speak English, or both. \nKids Eat Free is a little missleading for a single parent. Your order must be $10 or more before beverages and taxes. There are only 2-3 items more than $6-7 available. \nAside from breakfasts, which are actually pretty good, I'd avoid the place.\n\nHad the steak sandwich. Paper thin and tasteless. $7.49. Would not recommend.\n\nTables, floors and seats are filthy. Yes, it\'s a great place for good breakfast portions for cheap. HOWEVER, we went there this weekend for a quick breakfast, and it wasn\'t until after we had started eating that we noticed that the booth across the aisle from us had mouse droppings on the floor, not to mention the mouse hole that was carved out of the bottom of the booth\'s bench. I know there\'s the adage "You get what you pay for," but I\'m pretty sure I won\'t be going back anytime soon. I know that pest problems are sometimes unavoidable in restaurants, but when it\'s in plain sight of the customer in the dining area?!?! It makes me wonder what is going on in the kitchen if they are making no effort to clean it up in the dining area.

Great Sushi, great atmosphere, just wish the hipsters didn't find this place because you have to wait for a table due to the crowds. Peace and love Came out tonight with three other family members to celebrate a birthday. One person got steak hibachi, the other two and myself got sushi. Hibachi arrived first, cold, and it took another hour and five minutes for the sushi to arrive. First person who got the hibachi was done before the rest of us were served. Additionally, plastic wrap was found within one of the person's sushi rolls. Service was horrendous and slow. Obviously short staffed and spread thin. \n\nTo long, didn't read version: if you want to actually eat dinner with your family at the same time and not potentially choke to death on plastic, perhaps consider buying some Walmart sushi and staying clear of this pit. Let's just say I USED to be a regular but this last time I went, we had terrible service.\n\nOur party of 6 put our order for 2 appz, 2 hibachi plates and 6 sushi rolls at 3:30 pm. We got our 2 hibachi dishes 45 min later but no app and no sushi. Finally an hour later (4:30) the server said the sushi bar was backed up and haven't even made our sushi. hoping we would be compensated w an appetizer or discounted for our hibachi plates for our wait and inconvenience, the manager said since we already ate most our hibachi plates he couldn't do anything for us??! I'm sorry but we waited for over an hour for sushi that we never even got! We closed out and Only 2 out of our party ate and The rest of us walked out pissed and hungry! The least he could've done was comp us an app for waiting over an hour or discount the bill! But NO all we got was a SORRY! Sadly to say we will not be back! Excellent sushi. For rolls I would suggest Grouching Tiger, Anniversary, TNT, and Monster. I've had sushi all around the United States and Alaska including most of the major port cities in the US. This ranks up there with some of the best. It's hard to believe we have this here in Wadsworth Ohio. Ordered a few rolls and hibachi chicken for carry out and it was delicious!! Quick service, great food!

I dropped into lunch here on the recommendation of a colleague so can't fault the Yelp reviews here. I tried the regular sized chicken Sharma and was glad that I did not upsize as it was more than adequate for the average person. It was kinda average at the very best. I can only attribute this to the sauces. I did not notice until after the fact but any of the things that I would normally assume we're included like tzatziki were an upcharge. I might try again with my new found knowledge... I enjoy this place much more than Pita Land. The chicken is always moist and the rice is fluffy. I didn\'t know at first that they have an "extra meat" option...but they do! Next time I\'m trying chicken on the rocks with extra chicken, or in other words, heaven! Food was okay. It's a small little fast-food restaurant with LOUD music. It's hard to have a conversation when there is loud music. As far as the food, the beef salad I had was okay but not worth $12 and the meat was dry. I can say that I will not be coming back. My friend kept raving about Osmow\'s and piqued my curiosity so I decided to grab takeout for lunch. I ordered mild chicken on sticks for myself and hot chicken on the rocks for my bf. \n\nThere was a good amount of meat to fries ratio and the sauce on top was pretty good. I only managed to finish half before I was full. My bf eats everything and has no opinion on food whatsoever. To him, everything is "okay" but when I asked him how was his food, he actually replied with "it was good". \n\nThe service here was friendly and pretty quick, probably because I came one after opening on a Sunday. The food here is good and I will definitely come back. The only difference is I\'ll probably get a shawarma plate or half chicken on rocks and half salad next time... while the chicken on the sticks was good, I got bored of the starch and protein combo pretty quick. Today I went to osmows on Rutherford and decided to give them another try (knowing this location isn't very good compared to others). I ordered my normal chicken on the rocks mild spice, paid it came to around 12.50 which is fine and I take it to go. I get home open the box and find the portion to be much smaller then normal. They can't keep doing this because there is so much competition. Up the street is a fairly new place called champion doner which is an amazing place (5/5) which has huge portions for the same price. Overall disappointed with this osmow location.

Never tried Indo-Chinese, so don't have much to measure against, but I was looking for good Chinese around my new place and this was perfect. \n\nI ordered out so I don't know how the wait staff was, but the gentleman up front was very nice.\n\nWhile most Chinese food will give you unending pounds of fried good lathered in sauce, this place offers very well done, nicely seasoned food. Fu Lin made the best General Tso's I've had, and I plan to try some of the other stuff on the menu.\n\nEasily my favorite Chinese place in SW Charlotte. I'd highly recommend the take out here. I'm thinking I ordered the wrong thing here.. had the Darjeeling Noodles with shrimp, and while it was flavorful, it was prepared with way too much oil, and something about this dish made me a little sick to my stomach. \n\nMy friend, on the other hand, got the Chicken and Broccoli, which came out in a cute little steel wok, and was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful it was. \n\nGuess I'll have to settle somewhere in the middle on this one.. and take a star off for locational creep factor (next to a strip club, happy-ending-massage-parlor, and sexy shop). I love Asian cuisine and have tried many restaurants and carry out places. This BY FAR is the best in Charlotte!!! We can't get enough! The owner Lin, is there everyday... He will greet you, take your order, cook your food, refill your water, and take payment. He does it all! It is consistently good with anything I order. Nothing bad comes out of that kitchen! Guys it appears that this place is now closed. Let us know if there is a new location Mouth-on-fire should be its name! Wowzers, the food was spicy and delicious! As much as my forehead was perspiring, I could not stop taking another bite!\n\nWe ordered the Szechuan veggies and a Darjeeling noodle dish. Both were extremely flavorful...and yes, their spice measure is hotter. If you tend to like the typical "medium" spice level, go "mild" here. Not kidding.\n\nNice space, sketchy strip mall, but makes for a good outting.

I would never imagine a hidden gem like this will exist at a nursing home for the elderly. This restaurant is a private restaurant. However, there's no exclusive membership fee. The restaurant is tucked away in the back entrance of a building, So just look around. \n\nOnto the venue: this restaurant is very clean and quiet. We had many visiting relatives over, so my uncle decided to make a reservation to have dinner here. The head chef came out to greet the guests every so often to check on how we were doing. Plus the staff are friendly and maintains a very good attitude. Based on my observation, the clientele are known clients cause the head chef is friendly to everyone. \n\nOnto the food: I can say based on my pictures, it is not of this world. The food was made very fine and tasty but not oily or super salty or super sweet. The decorations to the dish are also very nicely made. Only a seasoned chef with superb control with knife skills can do this. Back to the food, I don't have words that can describe how tasty they are. Please see all my pictures. Note, this place serves Chiu Chow style cooking. \n\nI plan to come back with the folks again and perhaps bring the friends over too. This is a pricey restaurant with specialty food. There are things you gotta pre order like the wintermelon soup, the pork lung stuffed with rice, etc. Call ahead and ask for specials. \nDon't go on Chinese new year or similar occasion because their service is going to be really and super bad and rude. Hidden gem! Tucked away at the back of a retirement building , it is a master chef that can make you a mystery meal. You can also do a la carte. Nice meals and great selection despite the small place. The temperature is a bit warm since it is part of a seniors' building. Kid send family friendly. No alcohol. Good for skepsis occasions without the loud crowd. They serve low priced breakfast for the seniors in the building too. Clean place and good service. Brightly lit and quite spacious. It's attached to a senior care complex. The food was pretty good and consistent for the most part. The lamb soup is great but if you're not a fan of black pepper I wouldn't suggest trying it because there was A LOT of pepper in it. The chilled crab was delicious and quite meaty. A great start to the meal. \n\nNot giving it 5 stars because the waittime for some dishes was extremely long, especially the dessert which was an assorted plate of rice balls with filling. That tasted decent, not really worth the 30min wait. \n\nKind service, good food, and decent prices. Worth a try. Vintage Garden is the absolute epitome of a hidden gem. Previously only open to the residents of a senior home located in the building, it is now open to the public. \n\nThe casserole rice is such a good big portion and very tasty too. \n\nI called and pre-ordered this egg white pockets wrapped inside with seafood. Very interesting and nicely presented. \n\nThe fried egg with shrimp is good as well. Shrimps are good size. The steamed scallop with tofu is good, but better if the scallop is a bit larger. \n \nThis restaurant serves up Chiu-Chow style Chinese cuisine, with a multitude of delicate and gorgeous dishes.\n\nOverall, I really like this restaurant and will come back again with my family!

Been there twice. Great service. Great food. Not a chicken finger and fries place. Dinner was great with true Alberta food. Brunch was amazing for Mothers Day. I\'m very glad "The Inn" has turned into something so great after it\'s horrible interlude as something else. I recently attended a wedding here, and although I can't speak to the regular menu, the catering menu was out of this world. This was, hands down, the best meal I've ever had at a wedding. The appetizers were unbelievably good and I'm so sad that they aren't included on the regular menu (or for me to just buy plates of to binge eat). If you're looking for a place with great food, this is it!! Had dinner here with friends on weekend and place was quite busy. Has a great atmosphere and a warm and inviting feel with fire place blazing away! View of the lake is great, but food is even better. Had the caribou and risotto mains, both were quite good. Sticky toffee pudding ended the night right! Great place for visit with friends or romantic dinner. Never would I come here for dinner because of how far away it is from my house but also because its rather expensive. However, I had a gift card so that changed things. My husband and I went all out and ordered whatever we wanted including drinks and dessert.\n\nThe food here is very tasty, and for a fancy place the portions aren\'t too "tiny", we were full after dinner and dessert. For an appetizer I had the panko crusted spot prawns that came with crab, it was phenomenal! For dinner I had the pappardelle, which was delicate and beautiful with its flavours. The mushrooms were a great touch. Dessert was creme brule, which was tasty and pretty standard. \n\nThe service wasn\'t fantastic, my husband asked for a wine pairing with his meat and the server totally forgot about it, so he had no drink with his dinner. She seemingly "pretended" she forgot and brought it out midway through the meal after we tried to get her attention for a good ten minutes. \n\nOverall it was a nice experience, and the food was definitely tasty. Our server did comp the wine fortunately as having it with dinner was kind of the point... We went for Sunday Brunch. Yum! Every element on the plate of the Duck Confit Croquettes was delicious and beautifully presented, the poached egg was perfect! The Mixed Grill was very nice, the beef was juicy and tender, the pork a little tough. We were so happy with our meal that we decided to push on and order dessert. Had the sticky toffee pudding - absolutely divine! and pumpkin creme brulee, very nice, but not as good as the pudding. The server was sweet and attentive. The view is beautiful. We will happily return for lunch or dinner.

Okay, so I came here after walking pass it on King st. First thing I notice it smelled funky in here. Like so strong chemical cleaner. Also there is no A/C in this place. I immediately started to sweat. Had to ask for cold ice water which the server didn't bring out until 10 mins later. There was around 5 tables (I think around 10 tables) so half full. Only 1 server for entire place. On to the food, the quality is okay didn't go for the sashimi as I didn't want to risk it this time. Had some raw fish on my Red Dragon roll. This place didn't offer miso soup nor salad with your meal. If you want it it will cost you extra. For this price point which is closer to Tone and Etsu I would not come back. But the server did give us miso soup as she said she had extra. Ganto? More like please no! Had a hankering for sushi and popped by this place. Roughly around 7 pm and not a diner in a site. A Less than impressive menu was superseded by the poor tasting rolls. Ordered two rolls, neither of which seemed to have come together with the combination of taste and texture. This was not a pleasant experience. Ridiculous poor quality.\nI ordered a lunch combo A (assortment of tempura with teriyaki, salad, miso, edamame).\nWhen I got it, tempura was cold and soggy, teriyaki chicken looked like it was made from scraps.\nI know this is a lunch menu but this is the one that gets new customers in the door.\nWith this mediocre dish as your first impression, you will lose a lot of repeat customers. I sure as hell won't be back. Tentative service and their seared albacore is really good! Would go back again to try their other options :-) I was a huge fan of the sushi place next door (Sushi & Bento) but they just closed down and I'm stuck with Ganto. Their rolls are good, but nothing to write home about. Their gyoza soups are good. Their sashimi is so so. The customer service is friendly and I have never seen this place busy. So no wait times, ever. The prices are also pretty decent. So definitely would come back but in search for something better.

Sat on the patio with my wife for a date without the kids. A trendy bar like atmosphere with that 'north Scottsdale' feel. \n\nWe split a Half order of ceasar salad and the Tuscan tomato soup for an appetizer. I really enjoyed the soup, very flavorfull and not your average tomato soup. Had a much fresher not so creamy taste. Salad was average. Then we split the number one burger and a side 'half and half' order of the sweet potato fries and onion rings. Burger was thick juicy and had a good taste. Sides were also good. All in all I would say above average for overall taste bit not a 'must have' burger. We were both stuffed. \n\nService was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Music was loud for the inside seating so if you want to talk the patio is the way to go. My friend's birthday was the other day and this is where she picked to go for her birthday lunch, and since I don't make it up to the Desert Ridge/City North area all that much, I hadn't even realized this place had opened up there. \n\nFirst impression: The space was a lot smaller than I thought it would be, but decorated nicely. We sat on the patio and there was a nice breeze, so it was comfortable. \n\nWith all the burger places popping up all over town, and since 25 Degrees is straight out of trendy LA, I had high hopes for it. The menu had a few items other than burgers, which was refreshing, but the burgers are the focus. Looking at the menu, I was quite taken aback by the prices....I mean $9 or $10 just for the patty? Plus $2 for cheese? Ridiculous! \n\nI wasn't all that hungry, and didn't feel like eating a $15 burger at lunch so I opted for the grilled cheese and tomato soup. The sandwich was good, three kinds of cheese and thick white bread, just the way I wish my mama would have made them! The soup I found to be just okay; it wasn't smooth like I was expecting, or creamy. And it was drizzled with some pesto oil; while I give it points for creativity, it just wasn't all that good. \n\nThe other girls had the tuna burger, a turkey burger and a sirloin burger; they all liked them, but they were huge and very messy to eat. The sweet potato fries that we got to share were good...but they didn't offer any unique kind of dipping sauce with them like many of the other places around town. \n\nAs far as burger places go, I didn't find this place to be special enough to warrant the drive up to City North or the price tag. My friends and I had to do an errand at CityNorth after the OYE @ AZ Wine so we asked Gabi for a recommendation nearby for burgers. She suggested 25 Degrees and it worked out perfectly since it was right by where we needed to be. \n\nWe were suprised to find it almost empty on a Saturday evening, but we got a table anyways. The decor inside is cute, dark and I really liked the wall of wines. My friend and I decided to split the #3 + mixed well done fries (mezzo secco jack, green chili, chipotle and avocado) and I think my other friend ordered the #2 (roasted tomato, crispy prosciutto, burrata and pesto). \n\nAfter a few mins, out came our burgers and my friend & I's was already split. I love it when a resto does that (w/o charging extra!). The fries were nice and crispy, but the burger was kind of dry. The ingredients were fresh, but kind of bland. $16.50 for a mediocre burger and fries is disappointing so unfortunately, I will not be back. Uhh...I guess I am the luckiest person to go to 25 Degrees! I had the Charcuterie with the Chorizo Blanco, the Soria, and the coppa for meats and the Red Hawk(only place I've found in the valley who serves Cowgirl Creamery Cheese), the Benedictine and the Crescenza. All were absolutley delightful and I was thoroughly impressed by the selection. \n\nI also had the spicy tuna on eggplant...fantastic! \n\nI ordered the number 1 which consists of sirloin patty, arugula, thousand island, bacon, prelibato gorgonzola, and crescenza. I ordered it Medium rare...get this, it came out MEDIUM RARE. How lucky am I right? It was excellent, better than delux in my opinion. Along with it I got the half and half of fries and sweet potatoe fries. \n\nTo finish, I had a milkshake...simple and good. I\'d love to give this place a four just for the amazing burger meat they had, but too many side problems takes it down a couple pegs.\n\nFirst off I have to say that the burger was thick, juicy, and cooked exactly how I asked for it. Aside from that though, the place fell a little short.\n\nFirst was the smoking, we were outside on the patio, and there were people chain smoking right next to us the entire time we were there. I come from boston where this is illegal, so it just turned me off a lot. It really helped spoil my dinner, and I reeked of cigarettes when I got back to my hotel.\n\nSecond, the sweet potato fries were so peppery that I couldn\'t taste the sweet potato. I might as well have been eating sticks made out of ground black pepper. Gross.\n\nThird was the BBQ sauce. This is obviously an opinion thing, but I just really didn\'t like it. It\'s been a while now so I don\'t remember what part of the taste was too much -- but I remember biting into the burger and going "eek." Obviously this won\'t be a problem for you if you don\'t get the bbq burger.\n\nLastly was the price. what\'s with the a-la cart shenanigans? If I order a $13 burger, I want to get some fries or SOMETHING with it.\n\nGreat burger, watch out if you deviate.

Growing up in Hawaii leaves you EXTREMELY limited to mexican food, and so I grew up not liking mexican food. I don't like the beans, am not a fan of the rice and pretty much considered Taco Bell good mexican food. But oh my god, the food here is seriously making me reconsider mexican food. It's a complete hole in the wall place you would never think twice to stop by, but you should make it a point to. The serivce is awesome, the guys there are really nice and they don't skimp on the servings. Love, love, love the food here! Place is dirty got food poison food is not good at all they don't make anything fresh very very bad place to eat!!! Quick and tasty! I had the taquitos and a quesadilla for a quick lunch break. They were friendly and the food was fresh. I'm so glad I Yelped this place! This is one my favorite taco shops to go to after a long shift, crazy night out (it's open 24/7) or when I'm craving something filling and delicious. I usually order nachos, rolled tacos or chicken wings. They're all reasonably priced, and portioned very large, which is fine with me! The wings are phenomenal, specially for it being a taco shop. I'd assume many are hesitant about dining here because of the rough appearance but don't judge a book by its cover, it's definitely worth a try. 6-19-2015 - I stopped in this location for a quick burrito and some beans and rice. The place was almost empty and I ordered a beef burrito and a side order of beans and rice. My order came with the beans and rice in the burrito, and I did not reorder as I was in a hurry. It did not come on a plate, just wrapped in paper, They had a little station to add salsa, etc. The burrito was ok but nothing special. This was my only experience at this location and I can not rave about my food, or service like other reviews I read. I did not get the rememberable thumbs up experience that a person gets after having had something above average.
