Great staff and local entertainment. My wife really enjoyed the Fish Tacos and I also loved the Pork chops. Great place I would highly reccommend Bonfire. Ill be back real soon! We've visited several times for business dinners. The staff are very professional and timely. Very attentive. We've had the meatloaf, steaks, most of the appetizers. The food had great presentation and the food tastes fantastic. Truly a great restaurant! I love this place been here 7 years and going! The best place in concord by far! Congrats!! One star since I couldn\'t give them zero. We were in town for a competition and had approximately 60+ representatives from our group with us here in Concord. After searching Yelp for a local non chain restaurant we decided to give Bonfire a shot. Upon arrival, we went to the hostess stand and asked if they had room for a party of 16-18. It was obvious they did, by the open tables in the restaurant. The hostess asked one of the servers if they had room to seat the party and she quickly replied, " uhh.....no....!!!" And then stormed off. This didn\'t sit well with my wife and when she told us, from the parking lot, I looked back into the restaurant and the hostess was flipping us off with both hands!! Yes.....double gigs!! Perfect way to keep your patrons coming back for more. \n I went immediately back into the Bonfire confronting her and asked for the manager. She said that it was directed toward a fellow employee that was arriving to work, and it could have been, since there was another girl walking in at the same time. Regardless....what a piss poor way to represent a place of business. Our group would absolutely rather support a local business rather than a chain, but I can\'t see that happening anytime soon. \n I\'d love to review the food, but due to the complete lack of professionalism from the staff....that won\'t happen. Good luck with your fine staff!! No telling how much they\'ve cost your business that you don\'t know about. I've been to Bonfire One time since its been open but not for the food! I went on a Friday night when the club is open! I had a blast dancing And drinking! Lots of people there dancing and having a good time! So BonFire is not only a restaurant it's a club on the weekends! My cousin tabby goes there a lot to the weekend club and she loves it! So I suggest to anyone looking for a Good time hit up Bonfire! You will not regret it! |

So, if you are looking for the old El Gordo, this is where you have to go. Not a fancy restaurant or anything but damn this food court has the best tacos I have ever had... I ordered a chilaca which is a taco with this huge yellow colored pepper that is grilled to perfection with chorizo as my meat filling and mild hot sauce. The tortilla was also grilled till it was nice and crispy too. This awesome taco only costs $5, plus was stuffed with lots of filling. An awesome deal. My friend got a beef burrito, which I didn't try but she really enjoyed it for $8 and couldn't even finish it even though she wished she could because it was really good!!! I've been to some really authentic Mexican places both in Canada and the United States and this place is definitely one of my favorites now!! I came here for the tacos and the tacos only. This little market was tricky to find but boy, is it a gem! Came here with my s/o and boy, the place was hot. We got 2 shrimp tacos, 2 fish and the one that has bacon bits in it (I forgot what it was called). It was $5 and for me, that was well worth it. Each taco was packed to the point that when we took a bite of our tacos, the filling was oozing out, causing this meal to be extremely messy! My favorite was the shrimp ones because the shrimps weren't incredibly small and they gave us 5 in each taco which was awesome for me.\n\nI also found it intriguing that there was a sink near the back where the tables were, making it extremely convenient for messy eaters for people like me. Also, their hot sauce was AWESOME. It was extremely spicy, tolerable, but definitely delicious (in moderation)\n\nAnd I know I said I came for the tacos but I also bought some churros (with different sauce fillings.. like what?!?!!!!!) on the way out. They were crispy, not overly sweet, but perfect with the sauce that they put in it. I forgot all the flavors they had but I got the chocolate, caramel and strawberry filling and it was delicious. \n\nI also wanted to try some empanadas but I stood in front of the cash register for about 10 minutes like an idiot, waiting for someone to come but they never showed? Oh well. I originally came to El Gordo to check out Agave Y Aguacate but after waiting 15 minutes while the cook was chatting with someone who didn't look like she was ordering anything, I gave up. \n\nInstead I had a chorizo empanada from the station that's furthest in the back on the right. When he asked if I wanted a spicy one, he also advised that there was either chipotle or jalapeno. I opted for chipotle. For $3, it was delicious. Just enough spice for a kick (but I wouldn't call it spicey, I'll have to try the jalapeno one next time), stuffed with bits of chorizo, spicy and it had a nice crust. Perfect to take on the go since it isn't messy. \n\nIn the front of the store, they have all their baked goods. Churros are made fresh (you can see machine churning out the dough) and are fantastic. I have to resist every time I come to Kensington. \n\nI do love my cheap eats. Yummy! Delicious South American eats prepared while you wait.\n\nOne star off because the signage is terrible (I walked past it twice trying to find it) and their hours are inaccurate on Yelp so they closed about 5 minutes after I ordered. |

Quality is great although sometimes you have to wait since it can get crowded. I personally think here's where you can find one of the best cannoli in Mtl. \n\nIn my top 10 joints in town. My review is limited to the patisserie portion of this establishment.\n\nGrabbed a few pastries here before going home and they were just alright. Pastries need to be good to exceptional. These seem to have been there awhile and while some may state picking up pastries in the evening may be too late to get fresh I'll counter with the point that businesses need to ensure their goods are at their best during all business hours.\n\nAt worst provide a discount if they can't certify their freshness. I wasn't impressed. If I lived in this neighborhood, no doubt about it, I'd probably be here all the time either picking up prepared foods to take home of have a slice of pizza right on the premises. \nIf you're like me and can't cook Italian food the way it deserves to be cooked, you best bet is coming here and picking up a few from their myriad of selection choices, whether it's pastries like cannolis or tiramisu or many types of antipasto if you're entertaining or the prepared pasta sauces, breads, pizzas and tons of other great stuff.\nI'm surprised that this place doesn't have more reviews given that its been here for years. The service is really friendly, prices are reasonable and the food is stellar. What more do you need? Great food at a great price. Eat in or take away. The choices are near limitless and the staff are friendly. Small cafe in front and a larger dining room in back makes Motta one of the easiest/most comfortable Italian eateries in town. And don't miss out on the desserts - check the 'sale' fridge for half price cakes and cannoli. |

La perla is God awful. The food was almost inedible. The salsa was bad the chips were stale and the chef had to try very hard to make it taste so nasty. The waitress disappeared for long periods of time. Never refilled our drinks. We were tempted to walk out on a few occasions. Even the building itself seemed to resonate the bad service and food. I will never return here for as long as I shall live. So help me God. Can I give zero no I wish. We walked in at 930 pm no one there to greet us. Finally found someone in the bar, and she said she was closing early because it was slow. Um dont post ur open til 11 if u are going to close whenever u want. I had a hard time giving this place even two stars. I know La Perla has been in Glendale for 60 years or so, and I sure as hell don't know why! I ordered the Chicken Mole and this was by far the worst mole I have ever had. It was very thin, and a light brown. The flavor nor the consistency were even close. The chicken was on the bone, and the fatty skin was still on. The rice was OK, but the beans tasted like they came straight out of can. The one, somewhat redeeming factor of my meal was the tortilla. It was pretty good, but still a little dry.\n\nMy mom ordered a combination plate with a shredded beef enchilada with green chile sauce, a red tamale, and a ground beef taco. The enchilada was actually good, and definitely the best thing we had there. The tamale was decent. The taco was terrible, whatever they call ground beef seemed to be some sort of unrecognizable mush. Most closely related to dog food. Shit, I don't think I would even feed it to my dog. \n\nOverall, this was a disappointing experience. I cannot recommend La Perla. Its too bad Lily's closed down. It was by far the best Mexican food in the Downtown Glendale area (as far as I know.) The service was great but unfortunately the ground beef in the taco had several chunks of meat that were very pink and way undercooked. Our waitress was very apologetic and offered to take my meal back at no charge. Like I said, the service was great but I won't be back due to the undercooked food. Amazing food, I ordered juevos rancheros and it was amazing. Fresh homemade meal. The atmosphere is just like you're in your nanas kitchen.. |

I come from Texas where we have Cracker Barrel's everywhere. This Cracker Barrel is an embarrassment to the name. The food is bland and under seasoned. Not only that, my wife found a hair in her hashbrown casserole and the server that handed me my food literally stuck his thumb into my eggs. It ruined my appetite to say the least. I would stay away from this place. It blows my mind to see how long of a wait they have sometimes. Delayed review of Thursday January 5, 2017. We went with a party of 8. Our waitress was very friendly and took our order. I've eaten at this chain before and know what the menu is so we ordered away. As the food started to be brought out it was delivered in random order and some of the guys ordered combination breakfast items. Half orders were brought out and understandably especially with a big group you expect several trips maybe even wait a couple minutes in between. Wait we did and when the orders arrived some were wrong, gravy for biscuits arrived cold, and overall it just went from I can't wait to let's get out of here. No manager addressed the table even with food sent back. My Turkey sausage was delivered but by the time the eggs arrived they were cold. I paid my bill and cashier asked me how was your meal.......i said I hate to say it but they couldn't get anything right. She was nice offered a manager however, my party was walking out. Not sure I'm coming back to this location. Food is always great however, it took over 45min to get it. I felt bad for the waitress, you could tell she was as bothered by the time it was taking for us to receive our meal. She said she would have the manager come over and speak with us about why it was taking so long but he never came. Management never came over didn't see him at all until we were paid out and leaving. Disappointing.\nTwo stars for very polite waitress, could've been five stars if management would've addressed us. Food is amazing!! The waitresses all help one another and share tables. Wonderful staff! If you look up from your table three would come running to ask what they can do to make it better. Finally somewhere you can go and there is ample parking in Las Vegas!!! This place is the best!!! This review is specifically for their PECAN PANCAKES.\n\nThey are the best pancakes I've had in a long time. For me, pancakes are about the texture, fluffiness, thickness, and taste. These are seriously delicious, thick, fluffy and delicious. The first time I had them, they had crisp outer edges which is my favorite way to have pancakes. The second time I had them, the edges were not crispy at all but still tasted great. Next time, I will see if I can ask for crispy edges.\n\nI would go back to Cracker Barrel again and order these pancakes over and over again. \n\nI have tried the french toast, chicken fried chicken, and some other things, but the Pecan Pancakes are what I would consider a perfect tasting and fluffy thick pancake! |

Adventurous foodies like myself routinely point this out, especially before we launch into a critical review of the latest ethnic hot spot. \n\nI can think of three reasons for this behaviour. First, it\'s the culinary equivalent of saying "some of my best friends are...", as a means of avoiding accountability for an insensitive comment. Second, it allows for the expression of personal preferences in the face of cultural norms. I may prefer my vegetables less crunchy, but it\'s because I was raised that way. Third, it insulates us from critiques of our criticism; food can be delicious, but I just don\'t \'get\' it. I wouldn\'t know good tripe from bad, since it all smells like feet to me. \n\nThis brings me to El Trompo; a small, bloodstained joint in Kensington Market, whose authenticity is heartily debated on these pages and elsewhere. \n\nI will admit that I don\'t always get \'authentic\' Mexican food. I enjoy complex flavours, but have tried enough \'real\' black mole to know that it just tastes muddy to me. I remember family dinners at the long-departed Chi-Chis fondly, although I feel the same way about Lichee Garden, and my tastes have surely developed since then. \n\nAuthentic or not, El Trompo is nothing like Chi-Chis. It\'s a long, narrow room, with walls sponge-painted adobe red. This is the most disconcerting aspect of the place. If you\'ve ever read or watched "Dexter" you half-expect Harry Morgan to come wading to your table in the middle of the blood-spattered space, to collect you and train you in the fine art of vigilante vivisection. \n\nIn summer it\'s a sweatbox, driving customers to an equally sweltering front patio, where they can gorge on tacos while people-watching. And gorge you will, while hipsters around you flock to the Blue Banana and funny upscale kitchen store nearby.\n\n\nBreakfast is a blast. Chorizo scrambled with eggs is a bit dry, but perks up nicely with the addition of the aforementioned green salsa. Sided with beans and tortillas, it\'s a substantial brekkie. Mexican coffee is advertised as augmented with spices, but comes to my table as a watery brew. My dining companion figures out the best breakfast option: tacos and beer; a Tecate tallboy or two, limes jammed rudely down their throats. The weekend also brings the option of house-made pozole soup; a thin broth loaded with hominy and shredded pork, sided with obscene amounts of veg, lime and crispy tortillas. It\'s good, but unnecessary, as is the black bean soup that can be combined with a set of five perfect tacos. If you\'re really hungry, better to order sublimely limey fresh pico de gallo and/or guacamole. They come with fresh tortilla chips, but pace yourself so you have extra dip with which to stuff your taco (and no, that\'s not a euphemism), \n\nAnd here we get to the glory that is El Trompo. Reading through this thread, I find people debating the authenticity of the joint, but how can one argue with the piquant perfection of the chicken tinga, or the masterpiece that is the El Pastor, all roast-pork goodness with the occasional acid sweet hit of pineapple. They\'ll offer cheese to the gringos, but I happily refuse in favour of the brightness. brought on by green salsa. \n\nSo here is my summary of a perfect day at El Trompo: \n\nbreakfast-tacos and beer. \nlunch-tacos and beer; maybe some pico de gallo. \nDinner-tacos and beer; definitely guacamole. \n\nIf you have room, they also sell churros on weekend. But why waste valuable tacos and beer space? I've been coming to El Trompo for a few years now. I used to come here before I even moved to Toronto when my parents and I came to visit my sister. The food is excellent and probably the closest Toronto will see to authentic mexican. Also their patio is the perfect place to be on a sunny day!\n\nTheir pico de gallo is fresh and delicious, as is their guacamole. I've had the mixed plate of tacos and the fajitas a few times and never been disappointed! Also their mango margarita is pretty potent (but who's complaining?) and tasty. Friendly service and an kitchen you can see into top it all off! I have a soft spot for Taco Hell but if I'm smart and don't want to punish my bowels, I'll let this place satiate my craving for Mexican food. This is the real deal!\nI sat out on the very small patio (probably seats around 10-12 people). Service was very quick though the girl serving us didn't seem too friendly. My friend tried to order in spanish but she wasn't impressed. I ordered the crispy cheese appetizer and the mushroom quesadillas. The crispy cheese come in a box-like shape. It's like eating the cheese you scrape off the baking sheet when you make homemade nachos in the oven. There's two little dishes of green (mild) and red (hot!hot!hot!) sauce that went well with the cheese. The mushroom quesadilla though small in quantity, was very filling although if I were a dude, you might still feel a bit hungry. The corn tortilla was a little bit thicker than I'm used to but was pretty spongey and tasty! \nI think I'll try the mini tacos next time around. They looked pretty good and there's enough vegetarian options to keep me satisfied. \noh and it doesn't make you run for the bathroom like Taco Hell! Simply deliciouS.\n\nGot al pastor, guacamole and cactus salad.\n\nNot sure why cactus salad was salty, I didn't like it.\n\nThe others were really good. Going again tomorrow before I fly back to Hong Kong. I like the atmosphere in the restaurant, and on the patio. Friendly vibe, and animated crowd without it being overwhelming. I tried the spicy chicken (tinga) tacos, and they were delicious. It's a little bit on the expensive side for the portion sizes, but it was good enough that I'm excited about going back and trying more of their menu. |

The smell of Hazelnuts' crepes cooking should be bottled and sold.\n\nI work next door to Hazelnuts and it has become one of my go-to spots for an awesome meal. I always get a chicken pesto crepe and it is always perfect. They are very generous with the toppings and the crepe definitely fills you up (and I have a hearty appetite)! There are small touches that they do that make the crepes stand out, like melting the cheese completely and adding salt/pepper on the finished product. The owner is always there and is extremely friendly. I am looking forward to trying one of their sweet crepes in the near future! Mmm... tasty crepes... 5 stars for breakfast, 4 stars for sweet, 3 stars for savory. I really want to love this place, but I find myself disappointed when they can\'t or won\'t make the breakfast crepes all day long. Why do you torture me with the sign outside touting my favorite, the "Maple Dream," if I can\'t have it? Anyway, the Maple Dream is seriously delicious and I would eat one every day, but I find some of their savory crepes to be only marginally better than my packed sandwich from home. I had the BBQ Chicken Crepe today and it was definitely oversauced - like drinking sweet tomato based bbq sauce with a little bit of cheddar, raw onion, and tiny chicken bits floating by. The Turkey BLT Crepe I tried last week was alright, except for the lettuce inside . This is weird texturally and I need to remember to ask for no lettuce. It\'s a chilled, crunchy lettuce in the middle of an otherwise warm, gooey, meaty, cheesy filling. Overall, I lovelovelove the breakfast crepes and really enjoy the sweet crepes, but think the 3-4 kinds of savory crepes I\'ve tried so far all fall into "fancy Hot Pocket" territory. This place is great! Quick, friendly service and delicious food. I just had the smoked BLT and I am already planning what I will have on my next visit I cannot wait to come home to the QC. Hazelnuts welcomed me with arms wide open! I was a piggy and had two. One with bacon egg and syrup and the other with fruit and Nutella. Almost as good as going to Paris. Almost. I've only been in Charlotte for two weeks but I'm already addicted to this place! In four trips I was able to try something from every part of the menu (sweet, breakfast, savory, veggie), bringing me to the following conclusion: they do everything right. \n\nI'm yet to have a bad experience and I especially appreciate the enormous portion sizes and friendly service. All of the ingredients taste fresh and delicious, allowing you to confidently order whatever your heart desires. There are so many menu options here as well that you really have no excuse to not come back and try other options. Whether you're craving something sweet or something savory, Hazelnuts Creperie has you covered.\n\nThe lines can understandably get a bit long during lunch, but you can call-in to place an order for pickup if you're ordering at least two crepes - helpful if you're picking up orders for colleagues! Additionally, I've noticed that the lines during breakfast hours are much shorter - if you can take some time out of your morning to swing by, I would.\n\nOne final note: the location is strangely tucked around the corner inside the lobby of an office building, although it's not difficult to find it if you follow the signage (and the scent). Don't be daunted if you don't initially see it! |

My husband and I just moved here from Utah and we had a Dominos close by that was awesome!! The service was always great and so was the pizza. \n\nToday was had the opposite! First of all this dominos is the closest to us, but is still a 15 minute drive. I ordered the pizza online but had my husband go pick it up. When he got there he was hassled because the name on the order was mine, even though we have the same last name and address. The girl had to get her manager to get permission to give my husband the already paid for pizza. What in the world?!\n\nSecond, when we opened the pizza we were disappointed. The crust had waaay less seasoning than our previous dominos. And it felt like the pizza needed to be cooked longer. One more thing...it was horribly cut! I'm so bugged!\n\nThe one positive is that I can still order online and use the dominos tracker. \n\nNeedless to say, I had to come on Yelp to review this place to vent some frustrations. I'm sad bc we loved out old Dominos, but we won't be retiring to this location. I arrived to dominos to order a pizza; however, they said they were only doing delivery. So, I left and called them from the parking lot and attempted to place an order for delivery. They claimed they could not deliver to the parking lot. So, I drove across the street and then attempted to call again for delivery and they still claimed I was too close for them to deliver. When I pulled away the workers made faces and pretended to cry as if to mock my friends and I. I am super upset with both the employees' actions, as well as the lack of service I received. A company should want to make a sale, and to work with a customer; however, dominos went out of their way to make it so I could not get any food. I will never return again, and I hope this comment deters other people from providing them with business. I live just a half mile from the store in stone canyon apartments. Food was fast and hot. Kayla the delivery girl was nice, great smile and hands down the most beautiful delivery woman I have ever seen. Hopefully next time I order she will deliver again. Great job kayla. This was my first time ordering from this location. I ordered online at around midnight, and ordered a pizza and some bread cheese thing. The food was here by 12:30. It was hot, and prepared well. If this place keeps up this level of quality, I will make it my go to for pizza. Ordered my pizza online, 23 min delivery! \nMet the nicest deliver guy! Older man by the name of Jay! He made me really appreciate the people who work late nights and still offer such a high level of customer service ! Top guy :) |

Can't get enough of the White Cheesy pizza! Is the BOMB ! Speciality Pizza Hands-down, the best pizza in the area. We always order delivery and are told 40-50 minutes, but the longest it's ever taken is 25 minutes. They get the order right every time. (If I could change one thing they'd be using fresh mushrooms instead of canned, but the owners get to make the rules.) I love that their website tells us when the pizza leaves their shop for our door!\n\nOnce every couple of years we try a different place, but after one bite of someone else's pizza it's back to Marco's for us. A great staff that makes great affordable pizza! They put quality effort into it and make sure its exactly what I ordered. Many great specials and side dishes as well! I recently came across Marcos pizza in mentor and I was overwhelmed with how great not only the food was, but the service as well. The owner was very friendly and made sure my order was correct . Definitely will be revisiting soon! Decent but service is below average. My wife is gluten free AND dairy free (horrible for a pizza place) so we go to Marcos because they offer gluten free crust. I can't tell you how many times we have ordered no cheese and gotten cheese on her pizza bc they go into autopilot and don't pay attention. Just two days ago we ordered pizza and they said 15 minutes. I arrived in 20 and they hadn't started my pizza. All my wife gets is crust, sauce, and green olives. It eventually took them 30 minutes to get me my order. I suspect it was because they made the first pizza wrong and had to redo it and didn't say anything... |

The service was great and the hotel is beautiful with holiday decor. I ordered the cob salad and it was really good and filling. Very nice and tons of turkey chunks in the salad. I also had a glass of Craggy Range Sauvignon Blanc that was very nice. It was not a cheap lunch but it was a very good lunch. Bistro 24 is the restaurant inside the Ritz Hotel. Many people seem to love this restaurant, but the selection on the lunch menu is weak. A large portion of the food they cook is very bland. If you are going to eat here, a salad may be the way to go as they are very good.\n\nHonestly, it would be hard to say that you could find better service and that is expected when you are at the Ritz. Certainly the friendly staff is the highlight of Bistro 24. I would not recommend eating here when there are so many better options just across the street. I've been coming here for years. The food is quite good, although I'm not much into the fancy foods. They used to do a crepe buffet at their Sunday brunch which I loved (not sure if they do it anymore). But overall, the experience and food here is pretty great. Nice to sit out on the patio as well. Went to the Ritz last night for dinner. I will tell you we didn't choose this one first but all the places we wanted to try were fully booked till 9pm (way to late for new parents). So I open tabled it, and, despite reading poor reviews in the past, I booked it. I was more than pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is not as nice as I thought it should be but the service was impeccable. We opted for the restaurant week menu and it was spectacular. I started with some marvelous mushroomy raviolis which were perfectly al dente and over some garlicy spinach. Yum! Then for the best part....the apricot leg of lamb. I have never been a lamb fan but decided to branch out and am so glad I did. It was so tender it fell off the bone and melted in your mouth. I loved the apricot couscous as well. The finale was the coconut pineapple creme brulee and, although it wasn't prepared on the spot, it made it to my top three of all time. And it was giant! My husband got the filet which was perfectly rare as he requested. His starter was a caprese with italian cheese and was very good. His dessert was not so great, a chocolate goat cake....some goat cheese thing which we could only take one bite of before calling it quits. Overall, we had a really nice dinner and it wasn't too pricey, although I can see why all the reviews. Of course, you shouldn't head to the Ritz if you don't want to drop some cash on dinner. The normal menu is small, but I am from the school of thought to do less items on the menu and make them perfect. The Ritz did that so I had to write this review to vendicate them. Bistro 24 has really nice food with an excellent and interesting bread assortment. Every time I have been there, whether while working or not, I have had excellent service.\nI must confess, one day at lunch I asked what was going to be that night's dessert. Not only did the server tell us, but he brought us one. It was a fresh out of the oven chocolate macaroons that wasn't going on the menu until evening. It melted in my mouth.It is service and food like that which keep bringing me back. |

I finally got a chance to try it out tonight. I got here just before 8pm. I waited at the front because the chalk board said wait to be seated. As I waited several servers just passed me by until a few minutes later someone finally can from the back to the hostess area. There were around 6 tables sat in the restaurant. I told her that I wanted to sit at the sushi bar. I sat down, and there were 3 sushi chefs behind it. She brought me my menu, got my drink order and left. I sat for a few minutes without 1 word from the sushi chefs. Which was in my opinion not great. People like to have them speak to them. I got my drink and proceeded to wait about 10 minutes until I flagged someone down to ask who's taking my order. I was told, oh one of the other servers and she walked away. A few minutes later someone finally came and I ordered a sushi roll, some sashimi and a side salad. I waited about 20 minutes and I still didn't get my salad. I asked the sushi chef, who by the way finally looked up, and that's when he handed me my food. My sashimi was not good. It wasn't cut correctly, it still had the weird top part that is think and like a blood line. My sushi roll was extremely hot. Something that should be listed on the menu in detail of how freakin hot it was. And my salad, well it was a cheap whiteish salad mix. All in all I'm super bummed my experience wasn't what I expected. Although the place looks great the food and service were not. I'll drive the extra miles and go to another place before I try this out again. The sushi chefs need to learn to interact with the sushi bar, and not give the excuse she forgot my salad because they were busy. They had 6 tables and the place holds over 18-20 tables. I only gave it 2 starts because my drink was cold. Good luck... Ok Sushi. For a sushi restaurant located next to a Wal-Mart, this is so-so. I visited this place on a Tuesday night, not too busy and still not sure why it took so long to get the soup appetizer for my meal. I attempted to substitute the "regular roll" with a special roll and offered to pay the difference as I did not want the regular roll. The server explained that after checking with the manager this was not an option and I was charged the full price for my meal and the special roll when the bill arrived (even though I did not get other roll with my meal). The server was inattentive and the sushi seemed "fishy." I'm very dissapointed :( I usually go to the original location in Concord and it's one of my favorite places in Charlotte. \n\nThe new location looks great and it's nice there's so much more seating than the other one and is so much closer to my work so I was really looking forward to my lunch today. Sadly, it was not the same. I ordered a specialty roll (the veggie lover) that's $8.95 +$1 for soy paper and they made the wrong one, kind of similar ingredients but a cheaper and more basic roll, so for a $10 roll it felt like I was getting gypped. Plus, they only gave one packet of soy sauce for an 8 piece roll? I ordered a side of grilled tofu with teriyaki sauce and they didn't put the sauce on it, it was just soy sauce or something similar. The staff at original sushi queen definitely put more care and attention into their work. It wasn't busy and it took 20 minutes for my order to be ready so I don't understand how they missed on the details. \n\nMy salad was fine, no real way to screw that up. So they missed on 2/3 and that's kind of sad, for $18 I should have enjoyed my lunch more. I would have given fewer stars but maybe this was a fluke; I'll give this location another chance... at some point. They have weird hours but their sushi is great and they have sushi specials. I really liked it and will be a regular customer. The wait staff was very friendly, professional, and timely. The sushi rolls were really fresh and the restaurant was really clean. All in all it's worth it First time at Sushi Queen, and I had a lot of expectations. I had the Sexy Dragon, and boy was it Sexy! Each bit was delicious. I'm not a huge fan of raw fish, but this was beyond amazing, I could not taste the raw fish. As appetizers, I got Panko Chicken with Spicy Mayo. The Panko Chicken did not deserve the Spicy Mayo. Spicy Mayo has a distinct taste with a kick that just did not settle well with the Panko Chicken. I also got the Fresh Spring Rolls. Would not recommend getting it because I have had better Spring Rolls. Sure, it was different with the noodles being thinner, but it just did not taste the same as with the thicker noodles. The sauce that came with the Spring Rolls, I would not recommend dipping into it because it was too strong--tasted like Dish Soap, if I am being honest. Overall, I would definitely go back for the awesome rolls of sushi, great customer service, and artwork that definitely makes the place homie. |

Dealt w a young woman on the phone who was rude and hung up on me and another woman behind the counter was just awful... I use to but weekly from them... Nvr again.. I am a big fan of chow mien when done right and GT dragon does it right. Good quality and value on the family dinners. Hits the spot when you want some classic Canadian Chinese. Not the best Chinese food in Georgetown. But.. not bad? \n\nI got a pick up order and for the portion sizes- the prices were warranted. \nThough, I asked for pad Thai and what I received was not pad Thai, I'm still not sure what it was haha\n\nLarge menu so great selection, vegetarian options and 'healthier' options as well.\n\nThe spring rolls tasted like play dough/chemically?? The low mein was good, the chicken balls my family said were good as well. \n\nThe food isn't bad but it's not my first choice. Food is average, service is poor. We ordered a small take-out meal for the first time, as we live around the corner. However, they managed to forget one of the three dishes. They said we could come back to get it (gee, thanks for offering to deliver YOUR mistake). When we eventually picked up the dish, the owner made a point of explaining that the dish was smaller because it was part of a combo. Wow! Now THAT'S customer service! Most restaurants with a modicum of respect would apologize (nope!) and offer some rice or something for having put us out of our way. Not here. They give you less food. We'll stick to The Hakka Place on Guelph next time... always spectacular food and excellent service. Bye-bye GT Dragon! As far as Chinese goes in Georgetown, this place is probably the better choice. Service is quick, and the food is always hot! If you spend over $25 you get a bonus app (wings, wontons etc).\n\nWe've sampled just about everything. As with most Canadian Chinese places many of the sauces are similar. The General Taos is good, similar to the ginger chicken. We wish you could order half portions (especially of the sweet and sour chicken). \n\nYou get a decent portion of meat with your order, could use some more veggies! Ho fun and Cantonese noodles are all good. Need dishes are good (pepper, broccoli). \n\nThey were the only place opened during the ice storm (2014) and made yummy food when we had nothing to eat!! |

They completely forgot two of the items I ordered and near the end I told them to just forget it and take it off the bill instead of waiting longer. \n\nThe staff are friendly, but I've had much better sushi and service at other sushi places in Calgary! It's ok. The feel of the restaurant and decor is one of the more authentic restaurants in Calgary, but for the price of the sushi, you'd expect a little more. Good quality food, no complaints about that; just lower them prices by 25%. A really good 1st date place. We were staying one night near the Calgary Airport and the hotel receptionist recommended this place. I ordered the oysters. They had a not-so-fresh scent to them and the flavor wasn't very good. However, I did not get sick, so I'm grateful for that. \n\nWe ordered a few nigiri and again bland fish, not super fresh. \n\nThe ramen noodle bowl was HUGE. And it had an interesting flavor. It almost tasted milk-based as if it was heading to be a curry Thai soup. \n\nOverall, it was ok. It filled out belly but didn't satisfy our Japanese craving. #100 This is my first check-in here and I had heard mixed reviews from others regarding the service at this restaurant. Still, I like sushi and wanted to try for myself.\n\nI ordered Lunch Combo B which consists of a spicy tuna roll (6 pieces) , cucumber roll (6 pieces) , California roll (6 pieces), and 2 pieces of what could be called an Alaska Roll at some locations (avocado, tuna, salmon, cucumber inside with orange masago on the outside). The precursor included a cup of miso soup which was not too salty and a Japanese house salad. Luckily, the blue fin tuna just arrived via courier so I will get to try one of the lunch specials, a blue fin tuna roll! Everything was fresh but the blue fin was extra fresh.\n\nI would like to rate this 4.5 stars but the service, while efficient and quick, seemed cold and dry like a 500ml Asahi. It was near the end of lunch and it seemed they were trying to rush us out. Since I have never dined in Japan, this could be a cultural thing.\n\nThe ambiance is quite inviting and comfortable; it is not too loud and there are tv's at the sushi bar area. Could be a great place for a first or second date.\n\nNote that parking is very limited and advice to the wise, carpool or take transit. It is also hard to make a turn in either direction on 32nd Ave.\n\nApparently, you can fax an order to 403-250-3593 or do takeout as well.\n\nAll in all, it's a good place for lunch for sure and based on the quality for dinner but don't expect the staff to go out of their way to be friendly (which sometimes can be a blessing if you're trying to score on the alone time on your date). It has been a while since I visited this place. I must say that the sushi was not as good as I remembered from a few years ago. The place was pretty quiet even for a weeknight and there was plenty of parking to be had, unlike my experience here in the past for lunch. There are plenty of staff around though but customer service is slow given the number of staff on hand. One thing that really turned me off on this visit was that a few staff memebers were standing around talking trash about customers behind their backs. This makes me think if they do that to all their customers. Perhaps if they concentrated on serving their customers instead of talking behind them, people would give them higher ratings on their customer service. |

The chef was a complete racist, he then slanted the eyes on smiley face and said "hey look its a Chinese face now" (this is supposed to be a nice meal, not a clan meeting Walt Kowalski). Following that, all of the seafood was completely over cooked and he didn\'t put butter or seasoning on the chicken and steaks (which he wouldn\'t let go of the fact of us eating rare steak saying it was gross and he can\'t do that). The egg tricks got raw egg all over my shirt and ended up with shells in the eggs. Awful dining experience and will never return again, Sapporo has now earned my business.\n\nPro tip to the chef, please turn your phone on vibrate at least so it\'s not ringing my whole dinner We were seated pretty slowly here. The hostess wasn't very friendly or welcoming. But that didn't stop me from looking forward to having a great meal! I was a determined soul to have a fun anniversary dinner. We ordered our drinks and appetizer. The appetizer was beef pot stickers. They were really good! Which was perfect while we were waiting for the chef to set up. Which is not s quick process.\n A very nice family was also seated at our table. Also celebrating a anniversary. \n The chef Roberto was so entertaining and fun. He was excellent! He started with a fried chicken rice. That was delicious. I ordered scallops and steak. My husband ordered steak and shrimp. My scallops were delicious! And steak was also very good. My husband said his choice was delicious, everything was delicious! I agree! During the meal the manager came by and sang Let it go! Which was funny! Thank you for making our night! Our waitress also took a picture of us and gave it to us before we left. \nOverall slow start, but it was fun and delicious! . I'd like to go back and try their sushi. They have a cute sushi area by the entrance. Food was amazing. I love the fried rice and everything else. Never once have I had anything I didn't like or anything that was cooked incorrectly. We had KC as our chef today and he was very interactive and entertaining. Everything was cooked to perfection. \n\nOur reservation was made for 2pm. We got seated at our table at 215 then waited until 230 to get a server. We finally got to order at 245 and finally got soup at 3pm. I don't know why it would take an hour for us to get our food if our reservation was for 2. Now I know to prepare for an hour wait before expecting to eat. \n\nOn top of that the rest of our service was horrible. Whoever our server was, was not around. My kids ordered drinks and needed waters but never got any. My boyfriend and I had waters that were empty right after the rice was served until the end of the meal. Never once were we offered a refill. We were a party of 4 and 2 of us ordered the white rice vs the fried. 2 of us ended up with no rice at all because our server never brought the white rice. Then to top it off all four of our meals included ice cream. Our server magically appeared at the end of our meal only to hand us checks. Never got our ice cream either. \n\nThe location in Chandler has way better service so I would recommend the drive if you want to eat here. I was not impressed with missing half of our order or waiting for ever to just order. |

There is no seating, unless you count the garden bench somebody got from Big Lots. So the place is what the kids used to call "Ghetto" but the food is decent. You are not paying a lot. The pizza sauce was good. I know some people won\'t like it because it is not overly sweet like they are in a lot of the chain pizza joints. If you like a more savory pizza sauce, you will like this. I got the ribs and they were good. They are not something to rave about but they were good. What do you want for paying so little money? I saw a yelp review on the garlic sticks...so I had to try them! Stopped in about 10:30 on a Saturday night. He made them fresh. They were REALLY good. And I don't usually like red sauce, but this one had a bite to it, not sweet at all. Not sure if this is a different sauce than what they put on regular pizzas. Got hubby a Hawaiian but he didn't eat it yet. Will definitely go back for pizza cravings.... and they do deliver! Will be trying other stuff on the menu.\n\nPs....I do NOT like little ceasers pizza, seems to be a common theme here in the reviews. And there is no seating to actually eat at the restaurant. I come here all the time and it amazing I love the food. He cooks the food the way I ask and hook me up with extra sometimes. BEST pizza EVER I love this place. I don't like a ton of dough. I like to actually taste my toppings and this is perfect. Great deal Awesome pizza for the price $$ highly recommended! !! Also fast service and great tasting pizza |

You get what you expect for the price and the food came out relatively quick. I needed to add a bit of seasoning but overall a good amount of food for a fraction of the price. The outside patio was awesome with even some friendly neighborhood turtles. I take a star away for the service which was pretty slow. It was early brunch and not that many people were there. Getting the check took 15 minutes after asking for it :( and another star unfortunately for blandness. But if you are looking for some homey food, this is the place to go! Just had what happens to be the most disgusting salad and soup I've had in my entire life (See pic). Should have gone to the place down the street. My bf's eggs, hashbrowns, and toast weren't horrible... Service is really really slow. Took us 20 minutes to get our check when we were finished. Overall atmosphere is crummy and filled with crap. I've been here twice. \n\nFirst experience our waitress somehow mixes half of our food with another table. Blames it all on chef doesn't take any credit for her mistake. Tries to make up for it by making all of our food again? Some $ of the bill would've been just fine then waiting FOR more food....\n\nTry to give it another shot. But the second time I went there with my boyfriend. We wait forever to get our food that is cold and I mean a cold breakfast is the worst. And then when we were trying to leave I had to ask for the bill not once but 3 TIMES. At that point I should've just left. Avoid this place at all cost.\n\nVery slow service. Very slow food. Food was sub par (which for the price is understandable). They gave me my orange juice warm. \n\n\nAvoid this place. You're better off getting mcdonalds breakfast at least their service is better. Small diner in Ohio city . Fast friendly service ! Great breakfast . Rumor has it they are opening the patio this summer and some changes to the menu . Excited to see this happen .. |

The only complaint are the bar stools, made of rod iron and the most uncomfortable I have ever set on, maybe a foot rail would help!\n\nOh, also, I wish they would carry Grand Marnier and some other higher end items ( not as important)! Some of the worst service I have ever experienced here in Arizona. Several tables were not bussed the whole time we were in the restaurants and guests were leaving due to there not being seated or they were told they could seat themselves (at dirty tables). If they sat themselves, they sat at their table for several minutes with dirty dishes and old food sitting on their table, while the waitresses walked passed and avoided eye contact. There were three waitresses and they made up excuses as to why the tables weren't cleaned even though they could have taken dishes back instead of walking to the kitchen empty handed. \n\nTwo guests ended up waiting at the registers to pay because their checks never came (after being requested). \n\nThe food was good, but the service was extremely poor and the lack of management/extremely low expectations and training was very obvious. I wish there were an option for ZERO STARS. the service is the WORST!!! We waited 45 minutes before anyone took our order!!! We went for happy hour and ended up missing it because we didn\'t "put our order in on time" total bull sh*t... We complained got nothing. We asked for a manager and there wasn\'t one available!!! We only go for drinks now. We live so close by, but because of the horrible review we almost didn't come. All I can assume, is somebody was a real grump and hit the place during opening week. What a pleasant surprise, the wait staff was friendly and fun, the food exceeded our expectations, best guacamole and Chili Relleno (and we've lived and traveled to many cities). The house Margarita was really good. Overall a great and needed addition to east Mesa. We will be back weekly! Had a reservation for this afternoon for a big family birthday lunch, confirmed it yesterday over the phone and got there today to find a note on the door that the restaurant is closed! As in, CLOSED!! No phone call letting us know. Manager came out and said they hadn't known yesterday that the restaurant would be closing. We even watched an employee show up for shift and be told to go home! Sad and very poorly handled. Puts the Mattas restaurant name to shame. |

When I complained they wanted to make the same food but better . I refused I could not get refund. After flying in to Toronto, picking up our rental car and preparing to head into the office, I decided to have a quick lunch at Thai Express in the Yorkdale Mall, near the office. BIG MISTAKE. Out of all the choices in the food court, I chose this? Why?\nThis place is insanely busy. Guess lots of people want to get their Thai on at lunch. We get up to the counter. We order fried rice and pad thai. When I attempt to pay using my credit card, I'm told they only accept debit. I give the clerk my debit card, which clearly says debit and I'm told they don't accept it. I try proving to the clerk that it is, in fact debit, before becoming frustrated. I give her cash and ask sarcastically if they accept cash. We wait for 10 minutes. Our dishes are prepared. We were never given our drinks and had to return to the same server to request our drinks. She'd forgotten if we paid for them at this point and attempted to dispute. Look. Bottom line. Whole lot of drama for very little in return. Avoid the confusion, the hassle and the lack of taste, hit up one of the other vendors at the food court. You'll leave full, satisfied and with lower blood pressure. Also- tip- they only fill fountain drinks half way, so order the bottle. At least you'll know what you're getting. Thai Express- the express train to lunch hell. Vegetarian Pad Thai was a heap of tasteless, gooey slop. Promised tofu was AWOL. Literally inedible. Straight to the trash can. Decided to visit this location today and let me say, AMAZING.\n\nIt was not busy when I ordered so the cashier put in the time and effort to help me choose what I wanted. When I said that I\'d come back she did not make a fuss about it like some stores do.\n\nI ordered the Thai Chicken Fried Rice and it was mouth watering. It only took about 1-2 minutes to make but it was worth the nine dollars. I appreciate the positive attitude that the cook had. When he was done packing the rice, with the biggest smile he said, "Chicken Fried Rice, I hope you enjoy it!!" it was so cute. \n\nPlease keep doing what you\'re doing! The food is over priced, the quality is sub par almost inedible. I ordered chicken and rice \nAnd half the plate is rice and the other have is heavily breaded chicken.. I can barely detect any chicken.. And it cost 10 bucks. Ridiculous. |

That\'s all the good things I have to say about this restaurant. \nWe ordered a bulgogi and chicken bibimbap for 2 people. \nThe bulgogi portion was small compared to other restaurants. The meat was bland without the garlic kick associated with Korean cuisine. \nYou choose your protein to add to the bibimbap. We chose chicken. When it arrived we called the server over because we thought they made a mistake and gave us just a vegetable bibimbap. She took it away and quickly returned saying "look there\'s a piece of chicken, and there\'s another one. " If we couldn\'t see it unless we inspected under a microscope - it clearly wasn\'t enough. \nThe price is high for the quality / portion size ratio. We left hungry and disappointed. \nThere are far better Korean cuisine restaurants in the city. I suggest a pass on this one. Really lovely decor and friendly staff (though a bit inexperienced). I have been twice for lunch and both meals were delicious and fresh. The salmon poke bowl was excellent and beautifully presented. The vegetarian bibimbap was very good, lots of a fresh veggies and rice was cooked well, it needed a slight bit more seasoning but the siracha did the trick! The banh mi sandwich was enormous and packed full with deliciously marinated meat and pickled vegetables, it also came with fries which were great. My sister has had the ramen and was very disappointed, but the menu is vast and so far everything I have tried was excellent and I will happily go again! Was looking for a new korean restaurant to try and found this place! \n\nGood but expensive.\n\nService was excellent.\n\nThe fries were tasty! One of the best "korean poutine" I had! I had the soondubu. It was good, just not spicy enough to my liking. The portions are smaller than usual, and more expensive. But the food tastes great! Service is fast and polite, good food, good options. Never been to a Korean place where I liked their music though. My first and only Korean cuisine experience in Montreal so far. I ordered 3 rounds of kimchi, a seaweed salad, and the bulgogi main course. Everything was perfect. The service was great and very open about sharing other places to find great Korean food in the city. |

The staff on this particular visit was so friendly! While we were waiting, a nice lady assembling sandwiches asked our order first so she could make them fresh. Our cashier and manager (I believe her name was Shahari) was very hospitable, as well. \nThe food tasted especially great and the inside of the restaurant had a clean, calming atmosphere. This place has turned to crap over the last couple months. I use to go there for a sandwich regularly when I didn't feel like eating much or cooking because of its close proximity....the staff has become ghetto. There are a couple lingerers there still but even the managers I've seen (especially the pot-bellied dirty white man in his 20's/30's) are a-holes. \n\nIf you don't want to be overly nice, just don't be! Just don't be blatantly fake with your interactions with your customers. Its clear these folks are on a downward spiral. I wouldn't trust the food safety at this point. I cant complain i always get great service here. I came one day after i got off work their drive through. The manager explained that theyre short staffed, and drive through is crazy which it was. He was taking our orders, and helping bag food. I think they do a great job they treat people with respect. Its always clean. Theyre doing something right i keep giving them my business Consistently clean restaurant, fast service, and of course great food. I am a regular at this location. Not enough good things to be said about this place. |

You can tell they are always hiring new people, and building their staff. \n\nGreat service evening during the busy Sunday brunch. Plenty of seating and a lot of delicious options. The desserts are to die for, there are traditional and unique choices. \n\nThe gentlemen who makes omelettes and waffles is on point! The best strawberry waffle I have ever eaten!!! This was our 4th time having dinner. Food was excellent but what made it so enjoyable was our server, Maurice. He us by far the best server I have ever had in over 45 years . He was exactly what s server should be. He was fantastic, very enjoyable. Use him to train your staff and I hope we can have him next time we visit. 4 stars for the restaurant and 5 stars++ for Maurice. Please make sure you let him know . Raw fish served twice! I was looking for a new place for hubby and myself to dine and found great reviews for this restaurant. Excited to visit and when arrived, everyone was so friendly. I ordered the fish special, Barramundi and my husband ordered the stuffed shrimp. When served dinners, i took a bite and the fish was delicious. The manager came over and asked how everything was, to which we replied "great". When I tried to take a bite of fish from the center of fillet, i couldn\'t get my fork through the fish. The middle of my fish was raw. The waitstaff took it back and apologized. After waiting maybe 10 minutes, the manager gave me a new plate and asked me to make sure it was cooked. It wasn\'t, again raw in the middle. Manager asked if I wanted to order something else, I replied, No, just cook the fish. When presented my entree the third time, whoever cooked the fish had chopped it up in small pieces and it was COOKED. Unfortunately, my husband was done eating by this time. So much for a nice dinner together. The waitstaff came over after I was almost done eating and asked if we wanted dessert. No Thanks : ( We were presented with the check, no discount, no offering for dessert, drink,???? When we were walking out, the manager ran over and asked that we wait a minute, she then went into kitchen and gave me a card for a free dessert the next time we visited. It wasn\'t a good experience at all, we didn\'t get to eat dinner together and no offering to make up for the raw fish was offered. We won\'t go back, too many places to eat. In the past, if we had a bad meal or experience, we were usually given something to make up for the mistake. I\'m wondering if this was the reason that on a Saturday night, there were minimal people dining. I was tired and hungry. Long day at work. Bridget came with amazing recommendations. Home run!!! Now tired but belly full. |

I will definitely be returning for future dinners. Highly recommend. Table is close for us so we have been there many times over the years. We stopped patronizing this place. The food is so-so. The service is not what one should expect in a restaurant whose pricing calls for excellent service. The bartenders choose to stand and talk amoung themselves instead of serving the customers. We eat out alot, and unfortunately avoid Table because of the service. This place could be great, not sure why they can't get it right. Atrias is several doors down and has a wait line outside the door....... Father\'s day dinner. Disappointing service, limited air conditioning, minimal food for price. Shrimp stir fry for $18 included 4 small shrimp with tails on on top of rice and veggies.Wow. When questioned about portion was told "that\'s all the shrimp you get." As much as pork shank was enjoyed, attitude and miniscule entr\xc3\xa9e for my son give this former go to establishment a LEAVE IT rating. Table has been in the Murrysville scene for several years now, however I never made it there until being home for Christmas when my parents and I felt like going out but staying semi-local. We ended up choosing Table and made reservations (not needed) for an earlier dinner (5:30) on a Friday night. \n\nThe layout of the restaurant feels a bit cramped in my opinion especially for just duos who mainly seemed to have tables only flush against the wall on the sort of three season porch area. We had a half booth in that porch type area. It seems like the bar space is the nicest and most spacious. When we left the bar also seemed to be more crowded than the actual restaurant itself.\n\nWe shared the Ahi Tuna app, which was pretty overpriced at $14 for what we got. (See my picture of it.) For dinner, there were six options which were part of a two for $25 special. We confirmed that those are slightly smaller portions with our server and instead all opted for regular entrees. I had the crab cakes which while smaller than many others I have ordered were pretty good. It, like the tuna app, came with a really bland pickled cuke salad, and it also had a side of some pretty bland rice pilaf. Mom had the scallops and fried rice dish which was good but salty. Dad went for a seafood pasta dish that was labeled in the menu as Cajun or spicy, and that was no joke. He is a guy who can do spicy foods, but this one was a bit hard even for him. Everyone agrees that the bread that was provided while we waited was delicious. Super soft with a just right crunchy crust. Apparently they bake it there, probably in the open brick oven that they also make their pizzas in.\n\nThe service was pretty fair with nothing too noteworthy on that end. It wasn't a particularly bad or great experience. We will likely go back at some point in the future, but won't really rush that decision. Just ok |

Why? It\'s because they are larger than the normal skinny wiener you get off a hot dog cart. Those babies are plump and they fill you up.\n\nBut at Dawgfather Grill, they are just like cart dogs. That\'s OK, because it is authentic. But hey, I paid close to $4 for a New Yorker, and it was gone in about 4 bites. That\'s a buck a bite -- not a good deal. These dogs need to be bigger. \n\nReally enjoyed the tater tots and the great service from the young man and his father, the "Dawgfather," who kept us laughing. They sell a very good Chicken Caesar Wrap, which my wife enjoyed. It\'s a small spot on Central, a bit hard to reach because you have to do a u-turn going south on Central, but I hope to visit them again and try something that will be a bit more filling than the New Yorker. Perhaps the Dawgfather can come up with a super NYC dog using a larger sausage, or perhaps a 2-for-1 special on certain days of the week. I could eat good hot dogs all day long. Well, I finnaly got the chance to ceck this place out. What a letdown. Figured I would go basic and order a Chicao Dog and Fries. Probably one of the worst chicao Dogs I have ever had and I did not like the oven baked fries at all.\nNo poppy bun as I was told they either did not get delivered or they were stolen. That aside the brown crust was flaking off of the plain roll, like old bread does. The roll had already started coming apart before I could pick it up. Need less to say it quickly didintegrated as soon as I bit in. The pickle was limp and broken. This a small place that could do a good lunch business I suspect if quality was better. Oneother note, mop the floor every night and when no one is at the register send the cashier out to wipe off tables...I mean really!\nI guess I will keep looking... The DawgFather Grill on Central Avenue is a newly opened establishment in a somewhat unfortunate location on Highland and Central, adjacent to an exotic bird store, across the street from a Yelp favorite, Mazies. I hope their rent is low, because this place looks like it is going to have a hard time. \n\nOn a Thursday night around 7:30, I arrived ready to have a big, juicy, all-beef frank which they advertized on their website as one I couldn\'t refuse. Well, I\'d have to refuse the hot dog itself, but everything else I\'d take in moderation. For starters, this restaurant used to be a hot dog cart in various Phoenix and Las Vegas locations, and they expanded to a restaurant back in December of 2010. Generally from a hot dog cart, you find the food hit and miss, depending on the cart, but this restaurant got both the hit and miss in one building. They bake their tater tots, which taste oh so glorious... nothing special about the tots themselves, and they taste like store bought tots, but I\'ve never had them baked, and it seem to really make a difference. They were crispy, but not greasy, and had a perfect mix of salt and pepper. For $2, the portion was over the top large. Unfortunately, that was the end of the tremendous praise I\'d be paying to Dawgfather. I\'m not picky about my Chicago Hot Dog, really. As long as it\'s made properly with mustard, celery salt, sport peppers, tomatoes, relish, onion, pickle spear, and a steamed poppy bun, I\'m good to go. DawgFather got it all right, except two ingredients, which unfortunately are the most important ones, the bun and the dog. The bun used for the Chicago dog was a standard white bread bun, slightly toasted, which is a huge no, and the dogs themselves, which I\'m assuming are the advertised Eisenberg dogs, are not Eisenberg\'s best work. The small, leathery dog was almost hidden underneath all the toppings. I would rather have had a big juicy plump Hebrew National dog with the same toppings, which they did a perfect job with.\n\nAfter my meal, I was told I could have chosen between a steamed poppy bun and the grilld white bun, they were then told I could have been notified that when I ordered. The point may all be moot anyway, as I only saw one other customer come in during the hour that we sat in the restaurant. Unless this place takes off quickly, it\'s going to be hemmoraging money faster than Bret Michael\'s brain. Another quick add, is the "chef" here at DawgFather, is a really nice and helpful guy. He seems extremely interested in making sure his customers are happy and telling them everything they need to know to order what they would want. They certainly get it when it comes to people skills, but as for choosing which dog to sell to the customers, and how to assemble the dog, they are losing as of right now.... which isn\'t to say it\'s not normal for Arizona hot dog carts. There are far too few hot dog places in Phoenix. Of the few that are out there, most are pretty good. But Dawgfather is now the best around.\n\nMost people talk about two things; the service and challenge. OK, let's talk about those for a moment.\n\nThe Dawgfather Challenge is really a ridiculous amount of food, but the quality matches the quantity. I recommend it to anyone looking for a mountain of food.\n\nAnd the guys down there are far beyond typical friendliness. They make people feel at home and they're always willing to have a good time with you.\n\nBut what doesn't get mentioned as often is how genuinely great the hot dogs are. Phoenix hasn't really embraced the hot dog culture, so it's really wonderful to have a good New York dog or a really well done Texas dog. The hot dogs are great quality meat and the preparation is top notch.\n\nOK, they don't have much love for a good old Detroit dog, but you can get Faygo, so that makes up for it a little bit.\n\nOne word of warning. Their dogs are hot, they bring them right off the grill so give them a moment to cool down.\n\nHats off to these guys. This place is awesome and the owner is very personable with everyone that walks through his restaurant. Right across from the light rail so very convenient. The food is def like being in New York! I mean probably the best hot dogs in town and a very good selection as well! |

Our waiter was attentive. The drinks are creative. The menu is simple and straight to the point. This place is tiny so seating is difficult, to say the least. For that and the long wait, I deducted a star. That's where my disappointment ends. We were in town for a few days and I was craving a good burger something awful so what do I do? I pull up my trusty Yelp app. My hubby makes fun of me for my dependence on Yelp, but he was thanking me yesterday. \n\nThe menu is very small, mostly consisting of burgers and pierogi. I ordered the burger with Gruyere and caramelized onions and my hubby got the same. First, I tried the fries, which I had with the aioli. How awesome. They were flavorful and fresh and everything that tries should be. Impressed and hopeful, I moved on to the burger. Holy Burgervana, Batman! That burger was good! The patty was clearly freshly ground on-site, the meat-fat ratio was perfect! And the flavor...oh, the flavor! It was well-seasoned, but not overly so as to take away from the flavor of the beef itself. \n\nWhile eating a good meal, I hum. When eating a really good meal, I tend to rock from side to side. I did both last night. This was my second time at Butterjoint. The first time I stopped in was several months ago around 10 on a Friday night. This time around it was a Thursday night at 5:30. Butterjoint is located in one of the last areas you'd probably think of if you were rattling off a list of areas/neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, North Oakland. I can remember the first time going here and thinking it was a bit closer to the Carnegie Museums, but don't be fooled...it's a bit further away. I like this place because it has a warm and cozy feel. Their menu includes a wide array of specialty cocktails, beers, wines, and food. I honestly don't think the cocktails are pricey as they are right up there with bars of the same caliber (Acacia, Butcher in the Rye, and Livermore). A $12 cocktail used to be more of a once in a while kinda thing, but it's becoming more common lately, especially as newer, more unique places open in the city. On my most recent stop here, I managed to take advantage of a happy hour special (there were several). I can't recall the exact name/brand of the wine, but they were featuring a red and white for $5 a glass until 6:30. I arrived closer to 5:45 and sat at a high-top near the front window. The place was pretty packed with what I would assume were either early dinner guests or those also taking advantage of the specials, but by 6:30 the crowd has dispersed and openings were available at the bar. Excellent burgers and decadent desserts! I had the buttermilk panna cotta and my husband had the chocolate truffle cake and BOTH of them were sublime! The burgers are tender and cooked to perfection. My only complaint was how loud the music was on Saturday night. Otherwise, it's an intimate space for a late night bite with great food and service. Best burger in the city hands down. I don't eat a lot of meat, so when I do, I like to make sure it is high quality and not something cheap like some of the other places around. They also had a great beer selection and cool atmosphere. |

Food tasted fresh. Portions were large and we had to take about half of what we ordered home. Salsa tasted fresh as well. Definitely will come back again. Great food, large portions, great service at lunch. I work nearby and eat here 2 to 3 times a month and it is never crowded. Authentic food. Good prices and weekly specials. First time dinning at this place and it was pretty good, the service was excellent and the food so yum! I really enjoyed the Fajitas the are my favorite Mexican plate, but at Margarona, they made it even more delicious! Definitely coming back Don\'t waste your time going! Beans and rice were the most unflavored I\'ve ever had, the chips taste like they are from Food Lion, the salsa is watered down, the pico had NO taste, the sweet tea looked like water, the fajitas both steak and chicken had absolutely no seasoning and the meat was overcooked. On top of that the "manager/cook" was super rude when we told her about the quality of the food. Never again! Tried it for the first time tonight, I should have just stuck with what I know. But I wanted to give them a chance. Yeah well I shouldn't have, nasty nasty and nasty. Did I say nasty? The rice was crunchy, that's new. Huge onions and peppers no problem, not cooking them yes that's a problem. The chicken or lack there of, yeah really bland. Talk about being disappointed. I surly was, it was a fajita quesadilla which are always good usually at any Mexican restaurant, but not here. They topped it with a three cheese combination, I felt like I was eating a inside out Mexican grilled cheese sandwich. I'm so upset and I was super hungry, the best thing was the chips, and that's not something they give with take out. That's shocking, I've never ran into that before. Needless to say I will not be going back. I tried and that's it. |

And I don't say that very often !! I went in there with my family after an event ... And we ordered some tacos and while we were ordering he yells at the cashier no more of those tacos because the guy behind them already ordered them and there is no more Of that meat. The cashier tells him well I'm sorry but she was here first and I'm giving them to her! Once our name was called we had also ordered a torta and they charge $9.00 and they put hardly any meat and 1 piece of lettuce nothing else . I go ahead and bring it up to the cashier and she asks to please have it remade the guy opened the Torta and stuffed it mad and put tons of meat in it and threw back on shelf .. It was so nasty you can tell they made all of our food in a bad manner !! When you are in this business they should welcome all comments good or bad. And they should try and fix the problem and argue with customer . And while we are paying for food that was disgusting the cook is now arguing with another customer over some tacos that were given wrong. I gave the cashier the torta only gave it 2 bites. It was so nasty but even then we paid for it!!! Yes even tho all our food was nasty we still paid for it, why because we were not looking for free food we wanted good food ! And this place is the worst:/ I know that sadly this area is changing over the years but the Wendy\'s that was originally here should have probably stayed open. Heck the Arby\'s next door is only open until 10 at night so clearly the chains that have been here for decades aren\'t as busy as they once used to be. They need to work out how to order here at Taqueria El Buen Pastor. I walked in and they have a menu board that says "express line" under all the menu items which would lead anybody to believe that\'s where you order. I mean it was right there in plain English and I was still confused. I had to go over to a girl and give her my order and pay then wait for it to be brought out. I din\'t have any problem with that but come on don\'t plaster "express line" all across your menu board if that isn\'t where you order. \n\nI got asada tacos and this place charged me .50 cents per taco to have flour tortillas instead of corn tortillas. WTF?! I know a lot of the chain restaurants do this but not usually these mom and pop type run places. I can go to Sinaloa (just down the street on Decatur near Lake Mead) and also Tacos El Gordo who both have the best tacos in town and they never charge me for wanting flour tortillas instead and even if they did, I\'d gladly pay it because I know I\'m getting a legit taco. The asada tacos here were way too fatty and overcooked. All I tasted was charred fatty meat. The tacos also only came with meat and tortilla so again I say WTF?! They do have a salsa bar but come on most places put onions and cilantro on the tacos at least! Just not my type of taco joint. No bueno. $30 for 2 quesadillas w steak and 2 horchatas. Had to pay for the refill on the large cup which is basically a medium. Hot sauce they have, not the original green and red sauce, but something else had no flavor. Staff was nice and friendly, but could get better quality food for that price at Tacos Mexico! Won't be back. This was the worst experience I've are at have at a restaurant I asked for onions and jalape\xc3\xb1os grill but give me use stuff the food tasted horrible the cooks look like they just came out of prison it's very unprofessional the cashiers they look like they're stuck on stupid when you tell them something they don't get the order right By far this is the worst taco place in Las Vegas not only do they have the worst customer service provided by ( Jannet!!!) Who's calls here self a manager while playing behind the counter with some guy spraying body spray all over him while people are eating 2 feet in front of her. And since we interrupted her play time we got all her attitude & even with her shitt face we still tried to order and even there food was bad so over cooked!! meat tasted like it was a few days old! Just disgusting!!Definitely a big disappointment .\n\nRatings on this place should be a big F!! |

We were hungry and everything was closed because it was a Sunday. This great taco truck uses fresh ingredients! I got a carnita taco and it was so tasty and very cheap. Great tortilla and the pork was awesome. I highly recommend! This place has got some great tasting salsas!!!\nIts not watered-down like filibertos. So if you like spicy hottt you gotta try the red it has lotts of flavor and moth burning. The green is just as good but not as hot. The service is always quick they give unlimited waters probably because they know how hottt that salsa can be lol.... workers are also kind and friendly no matter what time of day it is this place will make that fresh mexican food to satisfy your cravings because they are open 24 hrs a day 7 days a week trust me you'll never be disappointed in their food unless you prefer fake mexican food this is not the place to stop by. While staying in Mesa for business, I found this little gem and decided to give it a shot! It was within walking distance from my hotel and I was craving real taqueria food...a breakfast burrito to be exact. All the other places in the area had terrible reviews except for this one. The menu was vast and although the building was small, the breakfast burrito I ordered was massive!!! Not to me mention, delicious!!! The hot sauces were even tasty! The green sauce was too spicy for me but the red sauce was just right! The kitchen and order taking area were clean and the staff was friendly! I'm sad I didn't eat here more! I highly recommend!!! Staff is extremely SLOW but their food is sooooo worth the wait!!!! Street chicken mini tacos are the way to go!!! |

Id recommend going at lunch times or before dinner times if you dont like to wait for your seat. \n\nQuality sashimi for a cheap price in scarborough, Id prefer this place if im craving salmon sashimi when im watching my wallet. Really, its not as horrible as people say it is if you have the paitience. I started coming here a couple of years ago when my high school was still around the area. My first reaction was how small the place was. I did have my doubts the first time I came here but I was pleasantly surprised by how much food they give you for the price you pay.\nMy regular order is the bulgogi set. When you dine in, it comes with miso soup, salad, a hand roll, tofu, a shrimp tempura, a salmon tempura, congee, edamame, and green tea ice cream for dessert. But when you order take-out you only get the soup, salad, hand roll, and shrimp tempura for the same price which kinda sucks. I've also tried the udon and short ribs before. The udon is nothing special but the short ribs on the other hand have a lot of flavour.\nYou can order from the lunch menu during dinner too, but it's $1 more per order. It's still cheap nonetheless.\nThis restaurant has maintained decent quality and pricing over the few years I've tried it, a great pick if you're looking for a cheap meal and you're not too picky about the restaurant atmosphere/ambience! Maybe it's because I'm broke ass poor that I don't mind the complaints I'm seeing.\n\nSeating is very tight. It's like they tried to fit as many seats inside as possible (which they probably did, let's be real). \nSalmon is pretty much the only sashimi available when you order the sets (but I primarily only like salmon in my sushi, so that's a positive for me). It didn't taste very fresh, but I can live with that.\nPresentation is sloppy, but I can also live with that.\n\nService is alright. We got our food quickly, and even got additional items that I wasn't sure were part of our meal (miso soup, salad, side dishes, etc.) That was a positive for me. \nThe pricing for this place is cheap too. \n\nI would return if a friend wanted to come here, but I wouldn't go by myself. Please dont expect anything upon entering this place. With the way everything looks, its pretty darn old and rubbish. From the menu to the decor to the walls. Giving this place 4 stars because of the ff. \nprice point is good. \nFood was fresh \nLots of variety in combo\nI had udon sushi combo $7.5 super full\n\nDown side, salmon seems to be the only sashimi/ fish they have, i understand completely on where the guys coming from, he doesnt want waste and his store is too small for big fish like tuna snapper etc. Two words, quick and cheap.\n\nA little place hidden in a plaza mostly of Asian restaurants.\n\nGets really busy during lunch, what do you expect? It's cheap and it's quick, that's what you want for lunch right? When you're in a hurry for lunch, they do it right. They allow you to order off the lunch menu during dinner also.\n\nThe sashimi, no matter what the pic shows, it's all salmon. The udon is nice and chewy. The side dishes is a bonus. The rolls are kinda sloppy and the California roll was a fake crab meat only. The tempura was nice and cooked inside and crispy on the outside.\n\nit is what it is, nothing fancy. |

The man has an air of calm about him that is not common among bartenders and this creates an amazing atmosphere to enjoy a cocktail in! Superb. Everything was delicious... especially the gnocchi. Excellent service too. Very low-key yet very knowledgable. It's a must try. Drinks are good; great ambiance! \nGood luck getting a drink if you're not in the band though. Dave, the bartender (with the crossed eyes) doesn't give a shit about you. I watched others go thirsty and complained until the HOSTESS made them drinks. They were grateful but settled and left immediately after. I, myself, waited 23 mins for a tall boy that he only needed to open, while he served numbers around me...then he threw me out for calling him out for his fuck up. \nEat shit Dave. Hope you can see it soon.\n\nEat shit Reverie....for hiring Dave.\n\nStatus is not what you serve.\nPeople are WHO you serve.\nDo your job. even though it's relatively expensive but it worth the experience, nice decor and atmosphere with interesting food and drinks, I had a good time last night and staff was very nice and welcoming. Came on a Friday evening as a party of 3. The server recommended that we order ALL the sharing plates on the menu (there were 12 dishes total) as the portions were small. We were incredulous and ordered 4 dishes (chicken risotto with figs, duck with polenta peach and greens, salmon patty, and gnocchi). The dishes were good but not amazing, although the plating was beautiful. \n\nThey are all very small serving sizes and meant to be shared. The menu also changes frequently, so don't try to plan ahead what you want to order! I felt the prices were high for the portion size. We didn't order anything else and went to la carnita after to get chips and guacamole. \n\nService and ambiance were great. This place would be amazing for a date! I would definitely come back with a date to try their cool list of cocktails. |

Nice sweet wait staff, and if you like spicy you must have the tomato bisque with the caramelized bacon and toped with provolone. I had What I think was the signature dish... Bone in pork chop with a mouth watering spice rub. By the way they must have improved the salad because it was far from iceberg. The waitress suggested the homemade chocolate cheese cake, I forced it down happily. As full as I was and a couple glasses of wine I worried about the bill, but it was very reasonable for my belly fullness. Rats, my wife really wants Subtle to succeed, but we were extremely disappointed with the entire experience. It took the waitress 15 minutes to come to our table. We had to ask for bread and she did not bring it out until right before our meal arrived. The $26 grouper was no more than 4 oz. My wife did like her pork chops. Someone needs to tell the owner if you are going to use white table clothes make sure they are ironed.\n\nWe will only return for burger night and the 2.50 beers, but we cannot justify the cost for full dinner. Taking over the space that Christopher's once occupied, Subtle is a quaint and simple restaurant. \n\nI randomly went for $5 Burger Night (which is every Wednesday) - although I don't eat red meat, there was a spicy black bean burger option I happily ordered (Bonus: they have since added a portabello burger). Everything was very good - the fries, burger, and gin martini w/ bleu cheese stuffed olives were all solid.\n\nHappy Hour is also worth going to - 1/2 off appetizers, $5 martinis, and $2.50 beers. Note: Thursdays are $5 Martini Night and goes all night.\n\nThe menu is best described as semi upscale pub fare: a nice balance of comfort and elegant food options.\n\nOne thing I particularly appreciate is that they listen to their customers - they have been continually enhancing their menu based on the feedback received. My boyfriend surprised me and took me to this newly opened restaurant in Aurora after reading about what sounded like a superior vegetarian dish on the online menu.\nUpon arrival, we were seated in a less than comfortable room with terrible acoustics that provided for full exposure to the two other table\'s conversations.\nThe waitress proceeded to stop by and tell us it was "date night" and handed a special menu to the two of us with a seemingly "too good to pass up" offer of $50 for appetizers, salads/soups, entree, bottle of wine, and dessert.\nThe appetizer was delicious and we would have eaten much more had we known the terrible food ahead of us. My salad was nothing more than ICEBERG lettuce - something I could have ventured to my local McDonalds and eaten. The dressing was a lemon dressing that tasted like the smell of roadside bathroom air freshener. My boyfriend\'s soup was so spicey it lost all hint of flavor and he never quite recovered to enjoy the rest of his meal. Of course, the one dish for which we had chosen the restaurant was not available on said "date night," even discussing my food allergies for everything that was. I resorted to a noodle dish in which the noodles were out of stock that evening and a plain penne noodle were substituted in the end...with alfredo sauce? Not even sure what sauce it was. The chicken dish that my boyfriend had was dry, flavorless and clearly just reheated, not made fresh at all.\nI could go on and on, not to mention the waitress literally forgetting EVERYTHING we ordered, but you get the drift. Awful. When we responded to the question, "how is your food?" with "it\'s ok," wouldn\'t that be your first hint to try to change the experience? \nTo top off the night, we were told to leave the opposite side of the restaurant to where our car was was parked to avoid the icy sidewalk. With the amount of staff on the clock that evening, you would think one of them would put on a coat and shovel. or salt. or whatever most reputable restaurants do to accommodate their customers.\nBottom line is...there is nothing "subtle" about the poor quality of this restaurant. |

Employees have all been extremely nice. All tacos, fajitas are with the corn shell. Loved the salsas they have. I will say the fajitas need more vegetables on them. All are $2.50/each. I've been trying the little treats, dried fruits inside also. Most have been very good. Kind of makes me feel like I'm on a mini vacation. They also have alot of various peppers for purchase, a deli counter & cooler with various pops & fruit juices. They have recently added some picnic tables too. The best tacos I have ever had in my life. I highly recommend these tacos to ANYONE in the Pittsburgh area! We love stopping at this taco stand/Mexican grocer for a wonderful lunch. It reminds us of taco stands on the west coast. The prices are excellent and the service is great. Very authentic. Not gonna lie, found out about this place from a recommendation from someone at the Pittsburgh Taco Festival. THIS PLACE is the REAL DEAL! Got some great Mexican salsa that I usually have to order from Texas, too! Ordered ribeye, beef & chicken tacos! Go were great but, in my opinion, the ribeye was FANTASTIC! Not just fantastic for Pittsburgh but it's right up there with some of Austin/San Antonio's best! I realize that my pallet is different from the typical Pittsburgher, but if you want something closer to authentic (no cheese & sour cream) tacos, THIS THE PLACE! So much hype on this place so I had to check it out! The taco stand is located outside of an old gas station, and there is a sign to go inside to order and pay. The cashier was friendly and explained that all tacos are $2.50--any meat (chicken fajita, chicken, chorizo, pork with pineapples, steak, and a few others) and the quesadillas were $4/each. I ordered 3, and went outside to wait for it to be prepared. In less than 2-3min I had 3 tacos that looked so delicious I couldn't wait to dig in. They have a few tables up outside where the gas pumps used to be, and have enough seats for prob 25-30ppl. Def not fancy, but a good place to sit and eat. There is also a salsa bar that has fresh pico, guacamole (that was more like a thin sauce) and cilantro and onions. I tried a little of everything-- including the mild salsa verde, which I thought had a bit of a kick to it!The chicken was so good, as was the pork with pineapple. The steak taco was chewy and had some fat, but maybe I just got a bad cut. I will definitely be back soon!!\nGo... and Enjoy! |

Ridiculous. Especially since I have had better food elsewhere. \n\nSomething else that pulled my rating down was the fact that on the hottest day of the year (43 degrees was it?) the air conditioning was "broken". Everyone in the restaurant was sweating buckets.\n\nI heard that Rocco no longer owns the Goodfellas and that\'s a shame, he was an awesome restaurant owner and very friendly with guests. Atleast that would have cut the tension last night when we were sweating and overpaying. Food was just ok. The service was awful. Our waitress didn't look at me when she spoke to me but addressed my husband instead. I didn't feel welcomed and she insisted that we order our drinks even though our drinks were still full because she said she might be too busy to get us drinks if wanted another later. I felt rushed and the pizza was burnt. \n\nI'm a foodie and I've eaten at many restaurants and I have to say that for the service and what they are asking you to pay I'd recommend just about anywhere else. Came here on Valentines, not knowing they had a set menu for the evening as there wasnt a notice when my boyfriend was booking online. Neither of us were up for a full 3 course, so we asked if we could order a few pieces from the menu without ordering the full 3 courses. The waitress was kind but told us that they were not flexible with being selective with orders. This is an odd way to do business. She went and spoke with the manager to see if they would be flexible but she came back and told us he was not willing to budge. We ended up leaving because that is a terrible way to run a restaurant. Sure, it was how they had planned out the menu and kitchen staff for the night, but did that they would not budge for a customer is terrible service. We weren't asking for unique items they werent serving that night, just the ability to be flexible with the order. We wont be coming back which is unfortunate as I used to like it. Tried this place out after seeing this in the neighbourhood for awhile. The decor is great and very welcoming. We had a great booth seat which was perfect for my toddler. We ordered calamari for an appy and that was good. Whole calamari pieces perfectly breaded. For mains, We had the seafood pasta, lamb, and procuetto pizza which were all mediocre. My pasta dish was substantially smaller then the same dish my friend ordered. The egg pasta had a unique texture which I didn't like too Much as I found it floury and on the mushy side. The tiramisu and coffee for dessert was good. Overall average rating as I've had better. My boyfriend had been here before and had a positive experience, however when I was reading Yelp reviews I wasn't feeling overly excited about going. However, I have to say I was impressed. We were greeted and sat promptly. Our waiter was very calm, happy, patient and attentive. He started out by taking our drink order and brought them immediately. After giving a respectable amount of time he came back for our food order and was able to explain and give good advice about what we were ordering (ie. one pizza for two adults and two kids may not be enough but could start and see how we do). We ended up ordering the seafood platter to start with which was very fresh and tasty. Maybe it could have had a few more wedges of lemon on it but once we asked for more lemon it was brought right away. The seafood platter also had salad on it. The only comment my son made was that it only had one piece of shrimp and more Smelt, however the quality and taste of the food was satisfactory. We then ordered two pizzas (rapini one and prosciutto pizza). Timing on the pizzas was perfect. They arrived fresh and hot to table. I personally might ask next time for the pizza to maybe be done a little longer (ie. well done) but still have no complaints about it. The dough tasted very fresh along with all of the ingredients. The rapini had a nice crisp on it and was well seasoned and sausage wasn't fatty, great combo with the fior di latte. \n\nI was very impressed with the interior design and decor of the restaurant. It was cozy, dim lit, comfortable and very clean. The washrooms were also very clean. \n\nI am looking forward to our next visit and trying the pasta. |

The last chicken special I got was really sad, they gave me like 50% less rice which wasnt enough for this over seasoned hot mess of chicken thats been cooking in the oven. Don't kid yourself they don't charcoal grill the meat anymore. It's certainly not bad, and the portions are decent, but the emphasis is mainly on smoky sear and fiery chili heat. I had the Jerk Chicken because it smelled so good - definitely a bit greasy and heavy, the chicken seasoning lacked some other depth of flavoring besides hot peppers, and the beans-rice-oxtail gravy was actually not well-flavored at all, kind of dull and wanting some satisfying texture. Steamed veg on the side just functional.\nAlberts kills this place except for the just-off-the-grill smoky food and the fun of Kensington Market. The food was great! I had the small jerk chicken with rice and peas with steamed veggies. There weren't a lot of places to sit and enjoy but we managed to grab a 2 seater. There are 2 stores when you go there (Italian infused + Jamaican ) which is just a few steps away, overall it was good. Got the lunch special off Uber Eats. It came in a small styrofoam box and I thought it wouldn't be enough... but it most definitely was.\n\nThe chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender and delicious. It was a bit on the spicy side (was sniffling afterwards) but nothing too crazy. Would definitely eat again and again. The chicken is literally out of this world. If you're looking for true authentic Jamaican cuisine this is the place to go. \n\nI've had the chicken and the pork and both are amazing. \n\nPlease know you will have to wait if you get there on the weekends. You know it's good if you get there and there are 20 people in line. \n\nThe owner is one of the nicest guys too. I've enjoyed talking to him each time I've gone to rasta pasta. \n\nEagerly awaiting the Italian side of the restaurant to open! |

Food is always hot and tasty and reasonably priced.\n\nThe girls who take your orders, etc. can be a bit more friendlier but other than that it's good. Decided to order delivery due to good reviews on just eat, which ended up being a horrible idea. The food took almost two hours despite multiple phone calls. When the driver came, he threw the food in our face and left without saying a word. We ordered chicken skewers and a shrimp pad Thai. The skewers were cold, and did not taste good alone. The only thing that made them palatable was the peanut sauce, and the shrimp pad Thai was disappointing to say the least. My boyfriend described the taste by saying it was similar to vomit. Dine-in experience:\n\nPros: \n-Delicious food\n-huge portions\n-good prices\n\nCons: \n-service is slow\n-we usually don't get checked up on after getting our food so we have to kinda just stare until they notice we're waiting so we can get our bill.\n\nBut I still love the food and the portions so I'll still be coming back Do not order classic pad thai....placed order for delivery and as soon as I opened the bag the smell was very fishy....tried a shrimp and it tasted off. I called and spoke to someone on the phone who supposedly spoke to the manager and they just brushed me off... very poor customer service! I have a really tricky relationship with this place.\nWhen its good, i absolutely love it and can eat it all day everyday.\n\nBut unfortunately it's not consistent. The girls that work there and take orders are pretty clueless. Don't know their own menu, argue with customers on the phone, over charge, and punch in the wrong dishes. \n\nThey always have trouble with the order. and its pretty simple. They often punch in the wrong dish or don't apply the discount when i let them know after realizing they usually tell me there is nothing they can do even though i am a pretty loyal customer.\n\nI think for me i still go since the food is good when its actually made fresh and its the right order but it is more likely because it is so close by to me. \n\nI really wish they could step up their management, since this place has got some great potential. |

I loved fried Chicken but enough you all make the best find chicken down here but this it what I have been missing the roasted chicken is the best I got a quarter chicken white with sweet potatoes and reg mashed potatoes and corn bread and veggies Wow is it all good! So get in vechicle and go to this great food place Do It for yourself do it for the family just go I visited this Boston Market yesterday and was displeased with my meal.I ordered the baked chicken tenders.I don't even know where to begin to describe the tenders but let me advise you to not order them.There is so much breading on it and no meat whatsoever.The amount of meat available under the breading was paper thin (no exaggeration).I thought maybe just one of my tenders were like that but all of them were.I suggest Boston Market take it off the menu.\n\nThe customer service was good! Whats better than over priced chicken of all things....I guess because, they give you that great service and drop it off at the table never to be seen again. I do not get it..has anyone ever counted the dirty plates on the tables?Or the bathroom so nasty that you barf from urine smell.? Now they say they have BBQ? Come on BBQ? where is the smoker? In the back of a food truck?that rolled in the pre cooked ribs?\n I just do not get it.. What is Boston about it? And what is Market about it? We were greeted as we walked in. Service was quick, staff was friendly, food was fresh, and the restaurant was very clean. An employee came over to our table to ask if everything thing was good and to see if we needed anything. I recommend this location. Omg if I could give them zero stars I would. The cashier was absolutely rude to the point I wanted my money back. I didnt get her name but she has several piercings in her nose/face. I asked for a coke no ice. As a paying customer I feel I can order that. Well she failed to give me that so I politely asked her to make me a coke no ice. When she went to go fix I don't think she realized she left the window open and begin cursing, saying who the f orders a coke with no ice. Then she yelled out a couple more f bombs and I'm like who tooted her horn. The manager had to ask her to leave the floor twice. I don't know whose over this store but she is bad for business. They need to reconsider her position. I may even call corporate because that was uncalled for. |

The katsu chicken was delicious!\nI am looking forward to my next visit there are so many choices. Came back for our second sushi meal. We ordered 2 Alaska, which normally comes as fresh salmon, but our waitress said no problem ordering it with smoked salmon. We ordered one of each. Also had a roll with avocado and mango, a spicy yellowtail, and a spider roll (5 pc. larger roll). The spider roll was not on the menu, but our waitress suggested it when we asked if there was a sushi roll with soft shell crab. As before, the sushi was excellent! The rice cooked perfectly, and the fish fresh and delicious. Our waitress, Lu, was very helpful with questions and very personable. I tried the miso soup this time, and it came out very hot (heat wise). Very tasty, not overly salty. First experience was great, pleasant entry and greeting. The menu is good, tons of choices for those not into sushi.\n\nThe coolest part, drum roll please.....all 100% real meat. No fillers, no breading-overkill, true and legit. I'd say they are better than PF Chang's if you like that vibe, and they still are authentic.\n\nOur waitress was nice, but not very attentive. That's the only part we'd ask for better execution. \n\nPrices were reflective of quality, slightly pricey at $15 for a solid dish, but it's huge and high quality. \n\nDefinitely worth it, best Chardon restaurant in a long time! They also serve alcohol with a bar! Ahhhhhmazing! So happy that this restaurant opened so close to home. Best hibachi & sushi - hands down! Everything was fresh & tasty. The employees are very nice and check in often. 1st time experience. Warm inviting atmosphere. Wonderful menu selections, so many offerings. All four of us selected the hibachi combo dinners. My wife ordered the Kani Salad as an appetizer and everyone tasted and it was amazing. Waitress was kind and friendly. Dinners took longer than normal and waitress had to come and inform us that meals were being plated but she had forgot to put my wives entree in (only entered three dinners). All four combo meals included steak which were all over cooked and tough ( medium rare came as well done). My scallops were amazing and would order as a full meal next time in lieu of combo. The others had shrimp as part of their combos and enjoyed the shrimp. Flavor and portions were great. Deserts were yummy, cheesecake is a must try!. Our waitress had forgot a few other request but made up for it with her kind personality. Was disappointed that managment did not come over to apologize for mis-haps or that waitress didn't try to compansate for any of the problems. We did hear that a cook had quit week prior. I will try back in the future for 2nd chance. |

Its not clean their is trash on the floor and homeless people just relaxing inside i would not say its the best place if you just want to stop by and grab a bite to eat. I come here once in a while with my kids.. the place looks clean and today Jose was extra nice to me.. the staff is usually good I've never had a problem here Out of beans! LOL I know right. All my brother wanted was the usual, bean burrito extra red sauce - they were out of beans. Now we're stuck in the drive through with no way to get out. It took 15 minutes to get out :( I am not happy about my service. I have just gotten off from work and I came to Taco Bell at 9:50 and when through drive thru. Waited about 10 minutes for someone to take my order. The employees were just standing around on their phones. Didn't even bother to ask if I wanted any sauce. Taco Bell is going to go the way "Toys r Us" did at least in Las Vegas. The buildings themselves are old and dirty. The kitchens are worse. I will take Roberto\'s any day of the week. Original Taco Bell buildings are now in semi ghetto areas. My son was severely food poisoned by the one on W. Sahara. |

The service was awesome from our waitress who was on top of drinks and seating us to Edward our cook who was talkative and awesome with his tricks and everything!!! We had a great time from start to finish. We were celebrating a birthday and they definitely made it memorable for us! We had to wait a little bit for the table to warm up but that was the only thing... And we got a free side off the bill for checking in on yelp. We have been to the other location off off the 215 and Decatur but I'm glad we went here to experience this one because it was quiet and seemed more personal and again the staff here is definitely the reason we would come back here!!!! This place is just okay. The pink stuff is odd and on EVERYTHING. It's not a strong flavor - just a bit strange. Otherwise, service is good and everything was cooked well. I have been going here for close to 15 yrs... It is my wife and I favorite dinner spot for over a decade for a good reason... The food and service are second to none!! We have had many Chefs there who were all very good, but something about Edwards performance lastnight made me want to single him out in this review!! He was awesome!! I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a fantastic meal consistently and is tired of looking!! Your search is over!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! I was undecided in where to go for my birthday but my hair stylist suggested this restaurant with praise. I tried to book a reservation online but was unable to do so which was slightly frustrating. However I was fortunate enough to call around 5 pm and get a reservation for 6:15 for 8 people on a Sunday night. \n\nThe restaurant was quiet but I didn't mind. Service was okay; but our chef, Ed, was amazing. Tonight was actually his first night as a chef at the restaurant. Congratulations Ed! He was fun and engaging and because of his cooking performance, I'm going to be a repeat customer. \n\nI've seen some reviews where people are a little disappointed with portion size and price but I was full at the end of my meal with soup and salad included. Not to mention, you're also paying for the Teppanyaki style cooking. \n\nTry it for yourself :) My husband and I went for our anniversary. We had a great time! The Geisha Special is totally worth the money. Our chef, Eddie, was talented and fun. The house hot sake was very good and my steak was cooked perfectly. I have no idea what is in that pink paste they put on everything, but I wish I could buy it in bulk and eat it straight! The tempura veggies were yummy and the tempura ship was outstanding! Delicious food, great service, friendly atmosphere. The only reason is not 5 stars is because we didn't care for the salad and the soup was just ok... but who needs those anyway when you are eating AMAZING hibachi dinner.\nSide note, they overheard that my husband was military and adjusted our bill without being asked to reflect our military discount. |

It is a go to for us whether delivery or pickup and is outside the box from your typical pizza, subs or Chinese delivery. For a quick lunch with a casual atmosphere this place is spot on. I've only been there once so far but the Chicken Curry was awesome! I will definitely be back since it's near my new office. I'm pumped to find this place!!! Absolutely love this place me and my boyfriend are regulars heres after trying it. They also deliver and have pickup if you don't feel like dining in which is great with a busy schedule. The peanut delight is alway a great go to my personal favorite is the panang chicken curry. Lots of options for if you are vegetarian or if you eat meat. Eh. It's ok. It's not very well spiced, a little bland. \nI will say, though, that for the lunch prices, it's not a bad choice. Delicious curry and padthai! We had the chicken paneng, jungle curry, pad Thai and coconut rice! All were sooo yummy! Loved it!!! |

She finally comes over and helps the lady standing behind me cause she came through the drive thru and they messed up her order. She didn't apologize to the lady even when the lady said thank you she just looked at me and said how can I help you kinda snooty. Looked at her badge and she is the shift manager working both counter and drive thru and I would have understood if they were busy but when the employees are working and eating in the back at least someone could have acknowledged the people in the front. When you're in a hurry and want some fast mexican food del taco is the spot. I always stop by this del taco. I love that they keep it clean and the service is fast and friendly. My go to is the burrito and taco meal with fries. I just love their cuts of fries and burrito is tasty. I mean it's fast food so this isn't as good as going to a regular mexican restaurant but it still meets my craving.\n\nI give it 3 stars as it's clean, service is friendly, and food is decent. Here's the deal. The food is good as always but nearly every time I'm here in the drive thru they forget items in my order. I'd say it's a good 60% chance that something will be missing. I have to go back in and get the missing item. It seems like the reason may be that it always seems that the employees are all over the place at every station rather than having assigned jobs and tasks in a normal assembly style fast food operation. I was curious with their tag line..DONT JUDGE THE TACO BY IT'S PRICE. lol... so I opened and checked their taco..lol... hmmm....anyway ... 3tacos for a 1$, good deal! This place is one of the shittiest Del Taco locations I have ever been to.... Aside from the fact the food is rarely fresh and they constantly mess up your order let me share with you today\'s visit... The car line was half way through the parking lot so I parked and went inside. Sat there for 15 mins before anyone even acknowledged I was standing at the counter. All the while everyone is standing around looking clueless including the manager. People are complaining because they\'ve been waiting for their food for over a half an hour. The manager is standing around and clapping at the employees saying how it\'s taco Tuesday while she\'s doing nothing and 2 people are making the food and the other two are just standing there. Nobody looked like they knew what was going on. One guy asked for his money back and just left. Finally I place my order for 9 crunchy tacos with no lettuce. I wait and get my food. The sauce bin is empty by the drink machine so I ask one of the guys that\'s just standing around for some sauce. He hands me the sauce and mumbles something under his breath with his hands in the air. I asked him what was that? Apparently because I was exercising my Constitution right to open carry he thought it was funny to say "only if you don\'t shoot me" with his hands in the air. What a fucking idiot. Little does this Jack ass know that people like myself who choose to carry put a target on our backs every time we step out into public. We do so to protect ourselves and our fellow Americans including his dumb ass. By the way when I got home every taco had lettuce on it and the food was barely warm. Typical.... |

We didn't realize that this petite diner is also run by ... surprise, Terroni!\n\nThe prices are steeper than its sister locations and I felt out of place; the clientel here reek of money and it shows. Boccaccini, artichokes and minestrone were all fantastic. I'd like to give Osteria 5 stars, but the two of us left a bit inebriated from half a litre of red wine and my memory was a bit fuzzy ...\n\nDefinitely a good secret to be kept for the die-hard foodies. Just wish I could afford to come more often! Seating was tight as others have complained but service was not bad. The food is amazing though and I thought was fairly priced. Our server recommended great dishes and the ambience was lively, not quiet. I will be back for sure Great concept. Almost every dish is $15: antipasti (a plate of five little bites), primi (pasta, risotto), secondi (meat, fish). You can have two courses for $28, or three for $35. Menu changes often, dishes tend to be rustic and traditional.\n\nExecution: on this week's visit, the antipasti were kind of dull -- two were kind of bready, rabbit wrapped in bacon was a bit dry, soup wasn't bad, and the eggplant parmigianna was the only one I really enjoyed. Pasta? Ordered it because guanciale was listed as an ingredient, but where was it? Dish was OK, but I wouldn't order it again. The only stand-out was dessert - semifredo al torrone, with chocolate ganache and incredibly rich sabaione. \n\nAlso, it would be nice to have more reasonably priced wines by the glass. My friend and I ate at this lovely Italian restaurant last night. We had the charcuterie board and shared two pizzas. \n\nThe charcuterie board was okay came with two types of house cured meats (only 3 of slices each). Two cubes of cheese, olives, artichoke hearts, fried pizza bread, and a couple pretzel-like rings. It seemed a bit skimpy but for $18 we couldn't complain. \n\nThe pizzas were very good; we ordered the white pizza with pears, pusutto, walnuts. And the other was with a tomato sauce and house made Italian sausage. The one with Italian sausage was a bit soggy (maybe too much tomato sauce) but the crusts on both were quite thin and there was a delightful crunch in every bite. The pear pusutto pizza was delicious (might be a bit sweet if this is your eating on its own though). Both pizzas were $18 each. \n\nThe only issue I had with osteria was that we ordered wine right when we were seated and it came after we ate half of the charcuterie board.....it also saw the other table being served their wine mid way through their main.\n\nIt was also a bit confusing as it seems that they have consolidated with the restaurant next to them but there are still 2 names on the building. I have visited Osteria 3 times since it first opened. It's a beautifully designed room with a long communal table surrounded by smaller tables that seat 2-4 people. Italian wines are sorted along one wall according to region. The first time I went was for lunch and the meal was great. I was impressed by the changing menu and the fresh apps were fantastic. It was a flurry of nice and clean tasting dishes from Italy, accompanied by a bottle of Prosecco. I could barely go back to work and almost fell asleep at my desk with a smile on my face. \n\nThe second time I went I had an octopus carpaccio and I was sick shortly after. My initial experience here was so good that I couldn't believe it. I wanted to like this place but the severity of my runs scared me. \n\nThe third trip to Osteria was barely better. We sat at the communal table next to some loudmouthed elementary teacher that reminded me why I hated school as a kid. Fearful of my last experience, I went for a simple lamb and maccheroni dish. I ended up sending this dish back twice because it was under cooked. How hard is it for an Italian joint to cook pasta? My server tried to explain to me that semolina pasta was supposed to be white and crunchy in the middle. I told her to forget about it and asked for my bill. \n\nPass on this place. I wanted to like it but t's overpriced, overrated and made me sick. Their sisters at Terroni are much better. |

The waitresses are always on their best behavior and aim to please. \n\nI personally recommend the tzatziki as a starter, although I'd just as soon eat the pita by itself. I've never been given pita that wasn't fresh and scalding hot. \n\nMost of the menu allows you to add a Greek salad for $2. Other menu items allow you to substitute it in lieu of seasoned fries for no additional charge. Whatever the cost, I recommended getting the Greek salad with your meal. It is infinitely excellent. \n\nPersonally I recommend the gyro wrap. \n\nAnd the Baklava is so good you'll want to pick it apart.\n\nIt's perfect for a light, healthy brunch. First and foremost, the food here is great. Delicious. I want to lick my overstuffed plate. Drinks are potent. But it's the other stuff, the small details...\n\nLike how the last time I went, we were one of only 4 tables in the place but they were seating everyone along the same row of booths against the wall. So, they wanted to put me and my husband, on a date, in between two tables of unruly children. Oh hell no. They were very cooperative and prompt when accommodating our request to move elsewhere. \n\nAnd like how our flaming saganaki was not flaming. It was hot and melty, so perhaps they set it ablaze before it reached us, but that rather defeats the purpose, no?\n\nBut the staff is always very friendly and, as I said, the food can't be beat. I am a big fan of Greek food and not only does the food taste pretty good but it's a great fun atmosphere as well. The portions are huge so it is no problem sharing but my only complaint AGAIN is the lack of *Greek* children food items. The portions are so large, though, that it isn't a big deal for my son to just share the food from my plate. But chicken fingers at a Greek restaurant????\n\nI can't even remember all of the dishes we have had at this restaurant but they were all good. My husband always enjoys a gyro, their hummus is delicious and the feta fries...YUM.\n\nI didn't feel out of turn bringing my sometimes loud-mouth son to the restaurant since it is pretty loud there already. So, keep that in mind. Baklava Cheesecake.\n\nThat's all I have to say.\n\nOkay, no there's more. Graham cracker crust with a thin layer of filo, then thick NY style cheesecake...cinnamon, crushed pistachio nuts, shredded filo on top, sitting on top of a light drizzle of honey with more crushed pistachio decorating the plate.\n\nSo good that the meal before it seems like a dim memory...although the gyros are pretty darn tasty too. Succulent pieces of lamb, thick fluffy pita. You have to ask for feta on the side otherwise it doesn't come with any.\n\nAlso tried the avgolemono soup...creamy chicken rice lemon soup. Unfortunately, this one was the deal breaker. The chicken was old and multi-colored and the soup was a little too sour. I've had it before and really like it normally. I just don't like it making my mouth turn inside out.\n\nAnother sour note was what seemed like the manager yelling in the open kitchen asking his staff if he could meet their girlfriends and how old they were. Ooooo-kay. I didn't realize I was in My Big Fat Greek Real World.\n\nThe good news was the soup was first, and the cheesecake was last, so I left an extremely happy Margaret. The waiter was really nice about the soup, and very attentive. Good enough to make me want to go back sometime. Had a bad experience in downtown chain earlier. This was definitely friendlier.\n\nThe foods was consistent as expected. No more no less. The service was not very consistent during shift change. There was confusion how to redeem a voucher.\n\nNothing to go Gaga about, at least no Poker Face here. |

The specialties are Northeastern cuisines. Those features darken color from soy sauce. Among those the popular dishes are stews with chicken&mushroom or pork&pickle cabbage. \nThere is also a dish called menzi(\xe7\x84\x96\xe5\xad\x90\xef\xbc\x89, a pan fried semi\n-transparent cake made from sweet potatoes starch, pan fried with seafood. The cake has no flavour but the thicken sauce covered is tasty, and we simply like the chewy texture of menzi which can be rarely found in any other cuisine. This is a dish from my hometown, and I always order it. \nSome other dishes I can recommend is tofu curd with pepper , potato slices, and spicy fish. \nBe aware, some dishes may have the same name with the ones from Cantonese restaurant but the taste or presentation may be different. After all, the Chinese cuisines are so deep and wide. This is a small, clean restaurant. It looks like the cook and waitress might be a couple, so probably family owned. They understand very little English, probably also very little French.\n\nI went there twice. The first time I learned that they had no beer, but I could bring my own. The second time I brought beer, and it was politely opened and a glass provided.\n\nBoth times I went, there were other tables with Chinese speaking people enjoying food.\n\nBoth times I ordered spicy fish dishes with steamed rice on the side. Both times the fish was fresh and tasty. The food was excellent. I have nothing at all bad to say against it, and will go back a third time, while I'm in Montreal.\n\nNot a fancy place. It's an old style restaurant, and reminds me if places I liked in the 70s and 80s. The food is what makes it worth going. Solid restaurant specializing in Northeastern Chinese dishes. I really enjoyed these dishes and I think they are authentic. |

My family and I went for lunch yesterday -- there were 6 of us. Prices are not cheap, so you would expect some decent menu offerings and good food. However, this was not the case.\n\nI ordered some deep fried calamari as an appetizer with a so called lime-chili dipping sauce. The calamari was tough and very bready, and dipping sauce came out of a bottle -- very disappointing. I also ordered a chef's salad. Not a very good offering of salad materials and my ham and turkey topping was pressed deli crap, not real turkey meat or ham.\n\nMy friend ordered a prime rib sandwich. Meat was not prime -- tough and tasteless and perhaps USDA Select grade of meat. My granddaughter ordered breakfast and her bacon was cold and tough, like it was left out and cooked yesterday. My son ordered Buffalo wings as an appetizer -- nothing special. And he also ordered a supreme club sandwich. Not very supreme with respect to its ingredients and they used plain white bread. Grandson ordered some pasta primavera with shrimps -- he said it was rather tasteless. And my DIL ordered a nondescript salad and some similarly nondescript egg rolls.\n\nI have had better food at places like Chili's or Applebee's. Had the chicken Marsala and it was disgusting. It all was about the same quality as hospital food. Will never eat here again. OK; I know I am a non-learner, but this time I mean it!! This is the last time I go to this place. We went for dinner last night because we felt that we could have a nice Xmas Eve dinner here. Well, it was OK, but far from what I wanted or expected. Let me begin by telling you that they have been advertising that they have a new chef with a new menu that is great! NOT!!\n\nI call to make reservations for dinner and ask if Annabelle\'s Restaurant is open for dinner since the last time I went, I called and was told "yes" but in fact the restaurant was closed and we had to eat in the coffee shop. I was again told yes. I also ask if the menu is the same as what is showing on the website and I am told yes.\n\nWe get there and order a couple of cocktails and start to peruse the menu. First thing I notice is that there are no appetizers on the menu except for shrimp cocktail. WTF? Are you kidding me? What kind of semi-fine dining restaurant has no appetizers? And the rest of the menu bears no resemblance to what is shown of their website. WTF? So I ask if we can order from both the coffee shop menu as well as the restaurant\'s menu and they tell me yes. That is a relief since I ordered some onion rings with some smoked chipolte dipping sauce and some nachos with chicken -- both appetizers are pretty good.\n\nThere are four of us and we order as our dinners chicken ala king over angel hair pasta, chicken marsala, shrimp scampi, and a NY cut steak. The dinners are MEH at best and they have no french fries or baked potato for my steak. They do have mashed potatoes, but I am not a mashed potatoes fan.\n\nSalad of mixed greens and Caesar salad are fine. \n\nBut the dessert menu is pathetic and only one of us orders dessert -- a chocolate lava cake that looks like a Mac truck ran over a chocolate cupcake and they scrapped it of the road.\n\nThe bill is $150 for four of us --- not expensive, but not cheap either. But I think I can do better at another restaurant.\n\nSo today, I am cooking/making (with my girlfriend) our Xmas day dinner for the family. It will be super good. If anyone is interested, send me a message or email and I will tell you what we are having. We have been here for one hour. There is under 20 diners in the restaurant and are still waiting for our dinner. There are 5 of us. Finally received Luke warm dinner. Ordered a margarita and actually had to call the bar and ask when I would receive my drink after waiting ten minutes for it. I have eaten here several times - mainly in the bar/lounge area. The restaurant just recently rolled out a new menu, which I was pleased with. It sounded like they were working out some kinks with the new menu, but nothing that sacrificed quality or service. Their new shrimp tacos on corn tortillas are awesome. Don't feel shy to change your sides - as this girl loves her fruit.\n\nGo on a Monday, Wednesday or Thursday night for karaoke. The host is not only really talented, but a super nice guy. He makes he round and knows your name by the end of the night. BTW, it starts early and ends at 10pm. Needless to say, especially on a school night, I appreciate the hours. \n\nI look forward to going back and singing my heart out on a karaoke night! |

Excellent kale guacamole and the grass fed burger was very good. Wait staff very attentive and friendly. Other vegetarian friendly items also. I will definitely visit their other locations if possible. I want to like this place and I've tried it several times, but the food really lacks flavor. I've had the tacos a couple of times, which were served with stale, dry tortillas. I'm not vegan or vegetarian, so maybe this restaurant is not targeted at someone like me. Decent ambiance. I had the turkey lasagna, and it was pretty good, but a bit on the small side. No draft beers. Service was good, not over the top good, but good. I just don't feel that there is anything about the place that pulls me back. It's just..okay. WOW! It had been a few years since I had been here, but was in the area visiting a friend and we decided to grab a bite to eat here. I forgot how delicious and fresh everything on the menu was! The service was outstanding and the food was amazing. We ordered the herb hummus to start and each ordered the salad special which had summer vegetables, manchego, and more + chicken. It was absolutely delicious and I felt so good after eating it. \n\nIf I could, I would eat at this place multiple times a week. Highly recommend! I've grown to love True Food. Very flavorful and I feel good about what I'm eating. The atmosphere is always positive. The only advice I have is to refrain from sweeping the floors next to us while we're eating. It made my wife lose her appetite. |

Delivery is very fast and food is always hot when it arrives. The restaurant is also very pleasant to eat in and there's lots of parking.\n\nDefinitely worth the effort and money to eat there. Team Fam came here for lunch and we ordered the Ginger Beef, Pork Chow Mein, and some rice for good measure. The ginger beef as noted by other reviewers had a good taste to it. The ginger added a nice zing to the crunchy beef. Was it full of MSG? Who knows, but it was kind of like adding a lot of sauce (in this case, sweet ginger) to dry meat, and that's what you have here with the Ginger Beef. What started out promising ends up a dry mess. \n\nThe Pork Chow Mein did not fare any better. Sure there was a good amount of pork on top, but it was the same story of having a flavoured exterior with a dry interior. I don't want to say it's on the food court level because this definitely took some time to cook and come out fresh, but I wish it was more moist on the inside. Decent Chinese food and reasonably priced. We ordered the ginger beef, crispy chicken, and cantonese chow mein. All tasted good. We've ordered for pick up and delivery. A family favorite, we go there often and are usually impressed. The staff are friendly and the restaurant is clean. Most dishes are very tasty generally good value. Highly recommended! We went on Boxing Day, they were busy and the owner seemed stressed out and was a bit rude. When the bill came, he had added the tip automatically because he said we had a large group, we had 6 people in our group. However he added the tip again when I paid with my credit card. I was with family so wasn't paying attention but noticed once I got home that he charged me the tip twice. So make sure you check your bill before paying. |

Les go\xc3\xbbts sont magnifiquement m\xc3\xa9lang\xc3\xa9s. Je dois y retourner pour essayer les autres plats. C'est une place \xc3\xa0 d\xc3\xa9couvrir...en plein quartier r\xc3\xa9sidentiel, c'est un bijou! \nPaccheri et Putanesca: grandement conseill\xc3\xa9s! Let me tell you a little story about a little restaurant that could. It's a little restaurant called Le Saint-Jacques. This little restaurant has been operating for about for years. My girlfriend spotted this little restaurant hidden from any main Street. One of those little restaurants that you drive by and blink and you missed it. And that's ok because this little restaurant is filled with regulars only, where the owner calls you by name, pats you on the shoulder and treats you like family. \n\nThis little restaurant has nothing hip or trendy, you don't get served by strippers or hipsters with oily beards and man buns, they don't play loud music and you don't have to scream your conversation. No it's a quaint family owned restaurant, with a charming homey d\xc3\xa9cor that seats 30, maybe 35 guests, tops where you get served by the owners, the chef is the owner's daughter, assisted by her husband.\n\nThis little restaurant has a menu that lets face it doesn't reinvent the wheel, straight up Italian and French cuisine (trust me it works) but as with all meals, it's all in the execution and boy does this little restaurant execute well. The menu is simple and short. This is good. It leaves more room for quality.\n\nThe opening was a simple soup, a potage, a cream of carrots and ginger. Perfect balance between the sweet of the carrot and the spiciness and bitterness of the ginger. If this was a preview of things to come, we were in for a great meal. I could have eaten a bucket full of that soup.\n\nThis was followed by this giant veal meatball served in this perfect tomato sauce that I licked up from the bowl with bread once I was done... the meatball was perfect melt in your mouth goodness, no weird spices or weird add-ins. All that topped with slivers of Parmigiano Regiano (hope I spelled that right). Seriously delicious. My girlfriend had fried shrimp wrapped in angel hair pasta served with a balsamic and maple syrup reduction. Looked awesome but I'm allergic to shellfish so I can't taste, but it was an eye crossing mind blowing experience for her. \n\nThe owner then asks us if we want to get the main right away or wait. We took a break. But the owner brought us a complementary plate of bruschetta which were just perfect and non acidic and not too salty (common mistake)\n\nThen comes the main. \n\nI had duck confit served with roasted vegetables and this crazy ass potato mash that's so simple and yet so perfect. The roasted vegetables was equally delicious. I was expecting the duck to be super fatty because it was confit, but it was well balanced and the accompanying sauce was... it was.... I dunno what it was made of and I should have asked but it had this fruity taste that just married perfectly with the duck, I want to dare say it was cranberry but I'm not sure. All I know is that I was thrown for a curve. Perfectly prepared, fall off the bone, perfectly seasoned and very flavorful stuff. My girlfriend had the pistachio crusted rack of lamb and there's no describing how good that was. The chef really has a knack for cooking meats perfectly. And the accompanying sauce was disturbingly tasty. \n\nThe meal was concluded with the classic tiramisu, often drenched in alcohol, but not here. Equilibrium was achieved. It was sided with fresh blueberries and caramel. POW! My girlfriend had a 3 chocolate layer cake that was very chocolaty but not over powered with sweetness.\n\nThe owner even introduced us to regulars sitting next to us and we became momentary family. He gave us nicknames: Francesco and Angela. Our new family was friendly and even shared with us some of the shoestring fries which were freaking awesome. By the bucket please. \n\nOutstanding service. Mind blowing food. Subdued and welcoming atmosphere. So this obviously gets a 5 outta 5. We'll be going back and we'll bring more people. Excellent restaurant. J'adore l'ambiance feutr\xc3\xa9e de cet \xc3\xa9tablissement en plus du service attentionn\xc3\xa9 du personnel. Les repas ont bon go\xc3\xbbt sans parler de la pr\xc3\xa9sentation des plats. C'est un vrai petit bijou cach\xc3\xa9 dans un coin r\xc3\xa9sidentiel de l'est de Montr\xc3\xa9al. \xc3\x80 d\xc3\xa9couvrir! Who knew there were so many hidden gems in this area? Le Saint Jacques is located on a quiet residential street where you wouldn't expect to find a restaurant. It isn't really accessible by public transit but parking around here would be super easy. It is a family-run operation with the owner serving customers and his daughter preparing the food in the back. The restaurant has a classic, upscale feel to it and the menu features the classics of Italian and French cuisine. \n\nThey have a table d'hote at lunch and dinner which will get you a soup or salad, main dish and coffee or tea. This is probably your best bet if you come and it is very reasonably priced. I went with the table d'hote opting for a salad and veal in a mushroom cream sauce. This was only $16 and it was well worth the price. The veal was incredibly tender and the sauce was rich and creamy. Portion size was spot on if you ask me. \n\nThe owner was very friendly and was sure to check on us regularly to be sure that we were enjoying our meals. At lunch it isn't too crowded so you can probably get away without a reservation but I can't speak for dinner time. They also have a really large terrasse which I imagine would be really nice in summer as the restaurant is on a quiet street so you can sit outside without it getting too noisy. |

We didn't have any sugar, salt, pepper or ketchup on table so we had to ask for everything. They didn't have draft beers on tap even though the menu said they did. I will compliment them on their falafel which was tasty. Laziza is the place to be! Great food, the kabobs and hummus are amazing, and it's all very well priced. The atmosphere is very relaxing and a nice way to unwind after a long day. It's a pretty large restaurant/lounge so there's a lot of seating and plenty of room. The times I've gone I've participated in this awesome Lebanese dance and there's always good times to be had! I live all the way in summerlin but I still drive out to eastern and 215 to go here, it's definitely worth the drive! Go to laziza, you won't be disappointed! No doubt, the worst full-service restaurant in Southern Nevada. You are far better off sitting in the bar than the restaurant.\n\nMy wife and I visited the restaurant on a Friday night at 7 PM which is prime time for most restaurants, but a total fail for Laziza. With all the cars in the parking lot (one shared with several other restaurants), I thought it might be crowded inside. There only maybe ten tables in the dining room and only two were occupied. There were a fair amount of people in the bar. \n\nI ordered a diet Coke. Guess, what they were out of diet Coke. So then I order an iced tea. Ok, so then the waitress comes back and says they are out of iced tea, but delivers another diet Coke. This one isn't right either (fountain not working correctly), so still not diet Coke. So I asked for water, which I woudn't see for another 30-45 minutes, long after my entr\xc3\xa9e arrived.\n\nThe menu is supposed to be Middle Eastern, but contains Philly Cheese steak, Asian (Chinese) Chicken Salad, Fried Chicken and Lasagna. I'm no expert on Greek/middle eastern food, so I decided to try the samplers - the Mezza ((labneh, hummus, falafel, baba ghanouj, tabbouli, grape leaves and pita) and the Laziza Sampler (like middle eastern empanadas). They were ok to me, but over priced for what you get. \n\nService was slow (especially considering there were only two other occupied tables in the dining room), if you could find a server at all. To add to the ambiance, there was an open mic night going on in the bar, and since the dining room opens into the bar, there was no sound barrier and was very loud, lots of bass and feedback. \n\nIt was an overall unpleasant experience. They never have to worry about seeing me again, but then again I don't expect them to be open much longer. I came here late on a Sunday to see a DJ spinning that night. We had the "Mezza", which is like a big sampler. The food was all right. The service that night was frustrating. We asked questions about the menu (recommendations, etc.), she couldn\'t answer. The ditz seemed like she wanted to drop the subject and hide behind the bar. When she brought out the sampler and named the dishes (hummus, tabbouleh, baba ganoush, etc.), my friend asked what are they made of (ex. chickpea spread, parsley salad, eggplant mash). She seemed caught off guard. It didn\'t matter since our group of friends weren\'t picky eaters. She rarily checked our table (we were the ONLY ones eating in the lounge; rest were smoking hookah or downing beers) and seemed to be having a bad night... We went there thinking it looked nice from the outside so it might be a cool place to try. \nWalking in, the decor on the inside was very disappointing, we thought the place looked like a orange colored dinner. It was also empty, which should have been a tell that it was not that great a place. \nThe waiter brought us the menu, The menu selection was pretty small for a Mediterranean place. I didn't really care as they seemed to have what we usually like. Well, they were out of two of the things we wanted... My falafels and my boyfreind's Kabob. How can a Mediterranean resto be out of those 2 items?\nWe ended up ordering a fattoush salad, the falafels-less mezza plate and some sandwich for my boyfriend. The salad and sandwich was not impressive. The mezza plate had a very good tabbouli, the hummus was good but not the best in Las Vegas (as they claim) and I didn't care for the stuffed grape leaves and baba ganoush at all.\nThe waiter was friendly, but overall the place was nothing special, had no ambiance, the menu options and food taste was pretty weak. \nI seriously doubt they will be in business very long. I don't think we will be going back. There are much better options for Mediterranean restaurants in the valley. |

The food was shockingly bad. The hor d'oeuvres were actually extremely good, so we had high hopes, but the actual meals were barely edible. And served on paper plates with plastic silverware! (and this was not food that could physically be cut with plastic). I did not visit the actual restaurant, so I cannot judge other than catering. The food was not good and very expensive.\nThe French fries were fried in old oil, the shawarma was very average. Horrible service and WAY Too expensive. Not worth it!!! We left hungry after the meal. Fast service & delicious food. What more can a hungry person ask for ???? We ate dinner at Haifa Restaurant on April 18th. This was most probably the worst dining experience that I have ever had. We were a group of 7. From the moment that we were seated, we were ignored. We asked for water three times, and eventually had to stand up and walk over to the server to insist on water. We then asked for lemons for the water, and again had to wait 30 minutes and 3 requests to get them. When the meals were bought to the table, the one vegetarian at the table did not get her meal. Her meal finally arrived after everyone else was done with their meals. We asked for ketchup, and again had to walk across the restaurant to demand it of the server after 30 minutes. The server gave us a lot of attitude telling us that things were slow because all the food is fresh and made to order. Lemons and Ketchup are fresh and made to order?\n\nThe food itself was mediocre and expensive. If you want a far superior kosher restaurant in Las Vegas, try Kosher On The Go.\n\nYuck! |

They were a stop on the Underground Railroad and they used to give tours of the basement but some idiot hot their head, sued the inn for their stupidity and ruined it for the rest of us so no longer can you see that important piece of history. It's still a neat, different experience. Father\'s 75th Surprise Birthday Party-Owner took advantage of a joyous occasion. \n\nMonths of planning to create a surprise party for my Dad. There was myself and my mother working with the venue to help plan the event. Overall the event went well, but not because of the owner. Family and friends made the event great.\n\nUpon arrival we were expecting a private room for 31 people. We were placed in the main dining hall with portable 6 foot dividers to separate us from others. I inquired about a private dining space and was told by the owner the private space could only hold 30 and she decided this was the best fit. She told me she would waive the $50 room rental fee. Which is ridiculous to charge anyways because we had a section, not a private room.(charged anyways)\n\nMy brother also told her that we would like only 2 bottles of wine placed on the tables for a toast. She insisted on pouring everyone\'s glass and then charged us $7 a glass(30 glasses) to equal over $200 of wine(4 bottles). We asked for 2 bottles since it was a cash bar and guests had their own drinks already.\n\nAlso, the owner decided that it was her right to make their traditional toast and then let us make a toast. Thank you for forcing yourself into our event.\n\nWe also had a table of 3 that was served last after other tables had already completed their dinner.\n\nWe brought in a professional chocolate cake and were charged $15 to cut the cake. We asked to cut it ourselves and were told they have to cut it and charge us for liability reasons. My mother asked for a slice of White cake since she was allergic to Chocolate(oversight by us). The owner brought out an 8" cake and then charged us $24 for that cake as well, after she told us she would be able to find a slice in the back.\n\nWhen the final bill was due, the owner pulled my mother to the side to settle up. As I watched the transaction, she kept her left arm over a majority of the bill and showed the final price at the bottom of $1300+. \n\nUpon further inspection after the check was written, we noticed the wine issue and she charged us $50 for the room fee, even though she said it was going to be waived. \n\nUpon inquiring with her about the charges she immediately took offense and said "Don\'t try and nickel/dime me". Really? We verify the bill and catch you over charging and we are somehow in the wrong?\n\nThe venue was not very busy on a Saturday night and we brought in a majority of their revenue that evening.\n\nIt was a great event for our Dad to share with family and friends, but to witness my 75 old mother being taken advantage by the owner was very disappointing. Fortunately, my brother and myself were able to step in and have the owner cut us a check for $200 to cover the over charging. \n\nThere was another person named Gary who was excellent that night. Very helpful that evening and was able to find us a speaker to play music for the evening. Gary was a pleasure to work with.\n\nFortunately my Dad was not aware of the drama behind the scenes which is the most important thing.\n\nThe front of the building also needs a good cleaning or a paint job. Very depressed looking building upon arrival.\n\nWe spent another hour or so in the bar after the dinner, which was also a highlight of the evening. Cool little bar with live music and the bartender was great!\n\nI applaud the staff who worked very hard that night.\n\nI wish I could give a better review of the venue, but people make the difference.\n\nTheir ambiance is fine, but if you want to host a private event I suggest you look elsewhere. This restaurant is in a very, very old bed and breakfast. A brief history available in the lobby indicates that it was involved in the Underground Railroad, and is currently haunted.\nAt 6 PM on a Friday night this place was dead (maybe ghostly handy work?) For a time, we were the only people there. All things considered, it's a bit pricey. The food is pretty good. They had a very interesting garlic vinaigrette salad dressing, unusual but very good. The Steak Suzanne (similar to Steak Diane) was very tender and the mushroom sauce was flavorful. The rack of lamb looked great. The Connecticut Yankee Pot Roast was okay, nothing spectacular. The fresh veggies served with each dish were excellent, but the mashed potatoes were not very good. I'm not sure if it was a lack of butter or milk, but they weren't very creamy and had little to no flavor.\nTheir choice of dinning music was atrocious; the greatest hits from the 60s, 70s, and 80s in an eclectic mix might work in a waffle house or other greasy spoon, but not in dining room with table cloths, cloth napkins, and $20 to $30 entrees.\nOverall, the food is good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to dine here. An interesting old B&B that has some history and is supposedly haunted too. The bar has some patine to it. If the walls could talk they'd have some stories I'm sure. The main dining area was cozy. When we arrived there were some ladies playing cards at one table adding to the charm of this establishment.\n\nOn this visit I had the French dip sandwich. It was served with a side of au jus and lightly battered steak fries. The sandwich fantastic. The roll was fresh with ample portion of thinly carved roast beef, grilled onions and melted provolone cheese. The au jus was steaming hot and rich with beef flavor. Perfect for dipping into.\n\nIve been here a few times for lunch and enjoy their good service. The food quality is high and the dining area is clean and tidy. Cozy place, friendly staff. We stayed here three nights while attending a wedding weekend. The rooms are on the small side but we fit four adults, one child and two infants into two rooms connected by a bath. The rooms were clean and well equipped. Breakfast was generously portioned and delicious. Our rehearsal dinner was good too, save room for the bread pudding, even if you have to share. The rooms are quiet during the well but they do have music downstairs on the weekend. The volume wasn't more than a radio playing in our room and it ends at 11 pm. We would definitely stay again. |

Friendly people. Great prices. Hard to notice from the street but worth stopping in. Worst customer service,I ordered 15 pupusas by phone the lady said 45 minutes when i got there it was 45 minutes and my order was not ready i kept asking the lady and she was very rude,an hour passed and my order was still not ready i got mad and told her that i wanted my food because an hour passed she didn't care and kept taking orders from customers that were coming in the restaurant she just told me to tell her if i wanted to wait for my food or cancel it and she would give my order to someone else so i just left.The second thing is that she put her gloves on started making pupusas and kept answering the phone and touching the register with the gloves on and then she returned to make more pupusas without changing her gloves. This is one of the better places in East Vegas to get some great pupusas. The pupusas are of great size, taste, filling and the price is fair. \nThey're salsa that comes complimentary with chips when you dine in is homemade and tastes yummy :)\n\nOn the negative side: The rumors about the wait are a hit or miss. The last time I went I had to wait 35 minutes for the food to arrive. Also, they're salsa de tomate (goes on the pupusas) is a little runny. This place is my best kept secret in all of Las Vegas! You have got to go try for yourself. The tostones with garlic are simply delicious. Looking for platano maduro come here! This place has the BEST carne asada. I visit this place at least once a week! The price is good for the quality of the food. If you are Puerto Rican, El Salvadorian, Bolivian any of the Central American places this is the best you are going to get in LV. It's like eating at some ones home. They take there time and prepare it. The atmosphere is like being at home and eating, not very fancy but the food will make you forget. Very rude waitresses the cashier takes long all the girls here are lazy, the food has to much grease , the touch the phone with there gloves and don't change them , they handle money and don't wash there hands . Pretty sure they don't even clean there kitchen right . Foods not the best and they take other people before you like they don't care (obviously) I rate this place a 2 star place. I would never recommend this place to anyone ! |

The broth was bland. The staff was a little stand offish. Looks like they spent more time on the decoration then on the food. Pho 68 in the same complex is much better. New to town and decided to try a couple different pho restaurants. This location had a beautiful interior but don't let that fool you. We got walked in and noticed a group of people lounging on the out side, not too bad...but they were loud and had garbage everywhere. We sat down, we glanced at the menu and knew what we wanted. It took 10-15 mins to get someone to take our order(it was only us and another couple) during that time the group from outside came back in walking around the cash register(apparently employees) and sat down at a large table. 5 min after that, they noticed we hadn't order and went to the back and got someone. Finally got our order in, then about 5 mins later the waiter says the ran out of what I ordered. It's chicken pho, how can you run out? Anyway so we asked if we can have chicken meat with beef broth(not that complex) the waiter did not understand and took 5 mins trying to comprehend it when we gave up and just ordered another type of pho! We finally got our order and asked for soy sauce from another waiter bc the original waiter forgot when we asked....the new waiter brought out a bottle that said soy sauce, it was red vinegar. (I hate vinegar and I poured it in my pho already ) At the end, I had a discount for 20%off due to my employer passport. A new guy laughed and said they don't do that anymore, I showed him the date stamped coupon so he gave us 10%. (Not that it really mattered but we were already ercked by everything) Never going back. When I come down to the Phoenix area, I often yearn for the Pho places I get up in my neck of the woods in the Seattle area. Pho Van has filled that gap in my life when I\'m visiting the area. Simply amazing pho. \n\nI had the flank and steak and asked them if they could throw some tendons in there as well. I was served by a man who worked there asking "who ordered tendons?". I raised my hand and was asked if I was Vietnamese because I "knew". I got a little kick out of that, but I have to say the tendons were plentiful and delicious! \n\nThe deep fried tofu was really delicious as well, and I will definitely be back to try out some of the pork broth soups on the menu. \n\nUnlike some pho restaurants, Pho Van has a really nice ambience to it. This place doesn\'t get by on looks alone. They know their stuff! My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in AZ. I recommend this restaurant to all of my friends & family. Quality food, clean atmosphere & very friendly staff. Their soups are the best & it's authentic vietnamese food. Try their Bun Rieu or their Crispy noodle cake (S2) Love, Love Love. Everything I've had here is quite tasty. Enjoy!!! When I first had Pho I was not crazy about it. Turns out I was eating it at the wrong place! I ordered the eye of round and brisket Pho WOW it was so delicious, the broth had great flavor on its own much better then other places I have had. The beef was tender and not full of fat or gristle. This place took Pho and put it at the top of list on my favorite foods. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone just getting started or veterans. Its clean the service is good, and the food is really something special! |

I ordered a strawberry cheesecake blizzard with extra cheesecake and got a pulverized strawberry cheesecake flavored ice cream milk shake?? Smoothest texture, no chunks of fruit and cake like all their photos, so I guess these guys haven't checked out their own menu or have quality check. I literally took one bite and threw it away, and wished I would have just gone to Fry's and paid less to not satisfy my craving. Sad I wasted time driving, waiting. Hopefully they can figure it out. Ordered three items in the drive thru. Two drunk people with me made that difficult, but they got the custom orders perfect. The blizzard was served upside down and was not melted at all like I have had bad experiences at a other dairy queen in the area. I will drive here next time for sure! Excellent service with items served as expected! Tried to take my boys there twice around 9:30 and the crew told them they were closed, also drivethru was closed but hours say 10p.m? Not good. There were four employees when I walked in there were zero customers. Not one of the employees smiled or said hello. The man that took my order actually look like he was physically in pain being at work, or had an extreme hatred for people. I ordered one of the iron grill sandwiches and three blizzards to go, they were all put in the same bag so my ice cream is sitting on top of my hot sandwich. Really? I've never worked at a fast food place but I'm assuming that hot and cold items going separate bags! The customer service is horrible but the food is good so you just have to suck it up and keep going. Tall kid with black hair and Tats on his arm very very rude. Not one smile I had to ask for my receipt and he threw it at me. |
13,054 | b'L5R 3V2' | -79.667984 | b'Nana Sushi' | b'2' | b'ON' | {'RestaurantsAttire': "'casual'", 'RestaurantsGoodForGroups': 'True', 'RestaurantsTakeOut': 'True', 'WiFi': "'no'", 'GoodForMeal': "{'dessert': False, 'latenight': False, 'lunch': False, 'dinner': False, 'brunch': False, 'breakfast': False}", 'RestaurantsReservations': 'True', 'GoodForKids': 'True', 'RestaurantsPriceRange2': '2', 'BusinessParking': "{'garage': False, 'street': False, 'validated': False, 'lot': False, 'valet': False}", 'HasTV': 'True'} | b'True' | 14 | 1 | b'Mississauga' | 3.5 | b'True' | 43.592056 | b'YGH_JV6EWnUX9V1SO-zajg' | b'4-670 Eglinton Avenue W' | b'True' | japanese | It's been a very long while since I've been here but it remains a great place to get very good and very fresh sushi. Service is good too. Recommended! So this place replaces Sushi One, which I loved dearly. There's many similarities and some changes as well. The cooked food like the bulgogi and salmon teriyaki tasted just as I remembered it, which is a good thing. The special roll, black dragon, was huge as well and delicious. The inside of the place looks almost the same.\n\nNow, what's different? They now have a roll of the day thing going where a different special roll is at around $10.50 each day. That's actually a great deal because the special rolls are huge. They have also finally fixed the miso soup which was always way too salty, but now finally tastes normal. The salad is the same although I usually like a more sesame-style Japanese dressing.\n\nThe changes I don't like as much are there's no banchan anymore (most sushi restaurants don't give banchan anyway) and no complimentary ice cream anymore. Lastly, the prices are a bit higher now. Still, they balance it out with other deals that didn't exist before (take out deals, roll of the day, some changes to the lunch deals). We decided to try out Nana Sushi when we found out that Hinote was closed from 3-4 on Saturday. Nana Sushi used to be Sushi One where I used to go so often. It's now operated by new owners.\n\nService was slow when it was late in the afternoon. It took a while for the server to come by and ask for drinks and take our order.\n\nMy husband ordered the sushi bento box and I ordered the salmon sashimi, sushi, and roll set. We both enjoyed our lunch orders. I really enjoyed mine as everything tasted fresh!\n\nWe will be back if we want a la carte sushi. Disappointing and Expensive.\n\nWe ordered $50 delivery, the hot foods has to the worst ive eaten from any Japanese restaurant. The order was small compared to other delivery sushi Restaurants making it so unaffordable.\n\nMy Teriyaki chicken (15.99) was overcooked so heavily, the sauce tasted burnt and super salty, but the vegetables were completly raw. Everything was so carelessly thrown in, the rice had a pool of teriyaki sauce at the buttom.\n\nMy friend ordered some sushi combos (8.99) (15.99), once again unaffordable. Salad tossed in carelessly, the only upside is that the sushi was made well.\n\nSeriously 15.99 for a small entree and two small sides in cheap Styrofoam packaging is not a valid price point in Mississauga. Compared to moon sushi with 2 spring rolls 4 sushi teriyaki chicken and miso soup for 11.99.\n\nI would not recommend Nana to anyone. If you are to order, go to Moon Sushi. Located in a supermarket and other Eatery plaza, so indeed you will have plenty of parking spaces. \n\nThe menu was mostly Japanese with some Korean options. Many choices and they have daily roll specials. \n\nFriends like what they ordered. Nothing special to them as they are from east Toronto. They had bulgogi beef, mixed tempura and sashimi platter. \n\nI had two veggie rolls. Nothing stood out. They looked like normal sizes. I would have like it with some sauce on top. I'm not a wasabi type of gal. \n\nVerdict: I would go back to try their lunch specials. Limited seatings so not great for large parties. |

Nothing special and it's always the crust that falls short out here. Cheese sauce and toppings are ok. Pepperoni is dry, small and usually over cooked. Would order again when the pizza fix is needed but still looking for a NY style pizza place. Probably more like 2.5 stars, benefit of the doubt as they are a pizza joint and I ordered wings and pasta.\n\nThe wings were excellent, the pasta was as bad as the wings were delicious. \nChicken Alfredo was pure crap, small amount of dry chicken (arguably that could be the good about it), the noodles were overcooked - mushy - and the "sauce" was almost nonexistent and tasted like cornstarch in water, literally. \nWings were garlic romano, excellent taste and done perfectly. \nIn town on business, will order from here again to try the pizza (and more wings), update rating a star or 2 if pizza is as good as the wings.\n\n*update - another one of the guys from our group tried the pizza, compared it to those "english muffin pizzas you make when you\'re a broke but stoned college student" .... so while I\'ve never had one of those, I do know that munchies are the beer goggles of food.... won\'t be ordering from here, and 2 stars remain. Not bad. Got meat magnificent and habenero wings. Enjoyed both of them. Also I was on travel so delivery was convenient. Solid meal. Nice pizza place. Quick if you pick it up but they take long to deliver from past purchases. This time around I got a reg pie with pepperoni. It was pretty good This was the first time we tried Vocelli. Tired of the chain pizza garbage, this was a great choice! Awesome pizza, fresh salad, and the Vocelli rolls were incredible! We had a bit of a wait (about 50 minutes) but it was a Friday night. Reasonable prices. I would not hesitate to order again. |

Had a craving for a steak sandwich.\nService was fine, no complaints - just a forgotten about water and wetnaps, no biggie.\nMON - 1/2 off wing night\nTUES - Family night - kids eat free \nWED - all you can eat ribs\nWe had no idea about these days and what Montana's offered so being Tues and kidless we opted to eat in the lounge. You could still hear all the kiddos from the other side, it was a zoo!\nOrdered a steak sandwich that was so fatty, another one had to be prepped for me and I ended up taking that one home. They tasted like the M&M Meat steaks that I refuse to buy, no texture to the meat, just flat and sinewy. The table lacked salt and pepper too that the steak badly needed.\nBrisket burger - meat patty itself was decent but the soggy, oily onions that gave the burger its height were too much - and we love onions. The brisket was sweet but was almost non-existent, lost in the onions.\nMargarita was OK, def. a mix, very sweet. Beer was served perfectly cold.\nThe food and drink did take a long time to come out so do not be in a rush if you come to eat here.\nFree dessert at the end was a Mud Pie - NO WAY two people could ever finish that - it was good (ice cream, peanut butter and chocolate oreo crumble) . Management wanted to make up for the terrible steak and it was a nice gesture, we appreciated it.\nIf you want nice, hot food, this is not the place to go. Will stick to the Keg for burgers and steak. I would never call Montana's a steakhouse as it claims to be.\nGot my YELP Carnivore badge tonight at check-in! Geeky I know but cool at the same time! To keep this short and sweet, I'm going to sum it up by saying that I will wait a long time for good food, but not a long time for overcooked burnt and COLD food. Our wings came out cold and when I complained, they simply removed the 2 that had bites out of them and then threw the remaining ones into the deep fryer. They didn't resauce them and just presented me with a greasy plate of double deepfried sauceless wings. \nMy toddlers hamburger was cold and burnt. In my opinion it is unacceptable to expect a toddler to wait 45 mins for a hamburger. Period. \nThere was no sort of communication during our wait, and although the manager apologized, it will not change the fact that we had to ask 4 times to get vinegar for our fries. \nThe burger that we ordered to share was good, but the rest of our experience wasn't. \nThey didn't even come back to offer us a dessert for our kids meal (supposedly included in the price)\nThe lack of care from our server was deplorable.\nSorry Montana's. but we won't be going back. Ate here for lunch a couple days ago. I didn\'t have huge expectations since Montana\'s is a chain and they don\'t vary hugely from one to the next. This felt like a particularly strange experience though, as our server was rather awkward and the people I was with were in a bit of a funk too. I should have stuck to my two faves: the Antojitos or the Firecracker Burger (I get the jalapenos removed to take it down a notch usually). Instead I chose the Chorizo Flatbread. It was alright. Edges were too crispy and the inside was too loaded to eat without a fork and knife. I found it quite salty as well. Next time I\'ll stick to my regular picks and hope the server is a bit more easy to converse with.\n\nOne of my friends has an allergy to poppy seeds, which are on the buns and she didn\'t know this when she ordered her burger. They kindly brought her a new side in a couple minutes and remade the burger for her with a different bun (which did take a while). Was glad they took care of her but again the server and manager who came out lacked a bit of smoothness to how they handled the situation, although they did resolve it. It just felt a little awkward and the manager kind of made it sound like it was her fault (which it could have been - our menus were taken already so I didn\'t get to check if it says "seeded bun" or not).\n\nOverall not bad, but was the least enjoyable experience I have had at Montana\'s, which out of the chain restaurants out there, is generally one of my favourites. Went for dinner with my wife, her meal came after quite a long wait (others seated after us were already eating) while mine arrived even later. Medium cooked steak arrived rare and it was accompanied by burnt, cold shrimp skewer. Staff was helpful & friendly. Maybe stick to beverages and appetizers here. I've ordered a pick up order from them before and have had to wait for 15 minutes past my pickup time, and I've also had instances where I am served promptly with great service and very little wait. There is nothing special about the food. They are hit and miss, if you're looking for a good family environment and decent food that's reasonably priced then these guys are good. Not anything fancy though, and they have a separate bar/lounge area which is nice for watching football etc., too. |

While I waited the got other 2 orders wrong ! This was not.my first time eating here but let me tell you major things have changed in this place the wings are no longer the.best in az at all and the service is horrible I will never eat here again. The food was just not like it use to be I believe that they must've got a new cook or something and if that's the case they should fire him asap. This place was eh. The wings are good and very saucy then again we went kinda late so maybe they were trying to get rid of the extra buffalo wing sauce. Pizza was eh too. I prefer Peter Piper if that tells you anything. This place was our 2nd joice being that Granpas was about to close. Long Wongs is not what is used to be:( Horrible customer service. Ordered food for pick up and they said 35 mins. I figured they were busy so came in right at 35 mins to find out that I still needed to wait 15-20 mins. At 15 mins I go ask how much longer and they said 15 more minutes. They had 3 people standing around doing absolutely nothing and 1 person in the kitchen. Finally I get my food and everything was NASTY! For sure never coming here again. Absolutely the worst service ever if you're white you don't want to go into this restaurant they will treat you bad |

I have always loved lamb skewers from china, having lived there when I was young. and Silk Road is def authentic xinjiang food. the lamb noodle soap was also yum. my bf who's nv have xinjiang and he loved it too!! I went there on a friend's recommendation\n\nTried\n- Lamb Soup\n- Lamb Skewers\n\n Very delicious and the best lamb skewers I ever had. I highly recommend here lamb soup.\n\nStaff is very nice.\n\nWill visit soon with more friends and introduce them to this food heaven. Ok Follow up to my review at Silk Road a month ago I went again with my kids 2 days ago since I loved the food so much. I originally gave it a 4 star but had to write a review of my most recent experience there. I made reservations thinking it would be packed. We got there and the place was close to being empty! There was only 2 other tables there besides us. We got there told the server we made reservations. He took us to the table that was reserved. But then the lady in the front told him to come. I'm guessing that's his boss. He then came back to our table after we took off our jacket and poured tea into our cups and was settle in that his boss told him to move us. I asked why and he said it was because he gave us the wrong reserved table. He then ushered us to this table way in the front where the kitchen was. During this time the table we sat at originally was empty the entire time we were there even after close to two hours no one showed up. So I'm thinking you couldn't just leave us there and let us have our meal in peace instead of disrupting us and moving us?! I was quite annoyed at that point. We ordered 2 lamb noodle soup to be shared amongst me and 2 kids as well as 2 Lamb skewers. When the soups came I asked for a third bowl that's the same size so I can split the soup into 3 bowls evenly for us to share and I've been here many times and never had any hassle when I made the request. The server again went back to his boss to whisper something to her and came back saying his boss said no to the big bowl and he had to get me a tiny bowl. So I asked why. He said because they need it for other customers. I looked around at the nearly empty restaurant and ask who it's for?! The server then got embarrassed and finally gave in and brought me the bowl. The bowl was dripping wet with water so I know he probably took a dirty one that someone recently used and rinsed it quickly to give it to me. It had grease on it when he brought it to me. I was so disgusted!!!! I didn't use the bowl at all. Due to this horrible experience from the moment I stepped into the restaurant they have now lost a loyal customer. Even with the increased in price we still went. We usually visit Silk Road once a week. Not anymore. The price went up and the quality of the service went down. I can see why people stopped coming here. I can't see this place lasting that long. So disappointing. Disappointed at the bland lamb skewers which were supposed to be the best in this side of town - at 3 bucks a piece they were really lacking in flavor and substance. The cold noodle with fried lamb pieces on top was decent and the portion was huge - we got the medium which could have fed 6 ppl. Decor was really fancy to the point that it feels out of place given the service and the presentation of the food - but it reflects on the price as once we sat down we were told about the $35 minimum per table. Service had to be prompted but friendly enough if you manage to get their attention - like having to ask for tea and having to ask for change. Overhyped and overpriced - this is not a place you can really enjoy unless you have a bigger group to sample all the different dishes This is definitely the best Lamb kebab I've ever had, fresh and juicy. The service gets much better after they move to the big place. I also love the rice pilaf (\xe6\x89\x8b\xe6\x8a\x93\xe9\xa5\xad). I usually just order the vegie one without the lamb because it is really a good deal, 4.99CAD only. And their dried grapes taste so good. \n\nIt's better you come early as the restaurant is quickly packed but they open after 3pm and close on Sundays. |

Perfect service. I had the chicken enchiladas with salsa verde. So tasty and fresh. Spicy though! Salsa was delish. Everyone in my family was very happy with their food. Overheard\nover customers remarking on how great the food was, too. We will all be back again. Good neighborhood restaurant. Whenever I'm thinking of going out to eat Mexican food this one pops in my mind first. I felt welcomed here from the start. Ordered Carne asada. Normally it is single piece of meat, but this was cut in straps, eliminating the fat. Tasted great. Thanks to Yelp, ordered free dessert - homemade flan...with just a touch of nutmeg. Great choice Mexico City, 1990-something...In a dark, music-filled, bustling restaurant where very little English is spoken. There I am, intimidated by a huge, sizzling platter of giant bacon-wrapped shrimp. I\'m young. I\'ve never seen shrimp so fierce, bacon so underdone. I eat it and I eat it again. I ate everything at that place and then we all went to the disco down the street. \n\nIt\'s weird the things you remember so well and weirder still when a taste authenticity is what conjures a remote memory. There was no bacon-wrapped shrimp on the menu here but I did go for the Camarones y cactus. Eat & eat! There is the taste of the firm shrimp and smoky grill, the softness and juiciness of the cactus pieces. (Consistency like bell pepper, texture/wetness you\'d expect like eating of Aloe Vera plant.) These flavors are delicate yet intense. How is that achieved? \n\nI don\'t know but it came through on the Elote on the Cob too. Maybe it\'s just the mayo! If only it were that easy. Quesadillas were not greasy with a bath of cheese; rather very well balanced with ingredients & sufficiently chickeny! Don\'t even ask me to tell you about the Oaxacan queso fundido. I\'ve never been intimated by a plate of cheese but I had to take most of this rich and buttery dish home. The flat bread they serve this with deserves a review all its own. And next time, I\'m getting the carnitas. \n\nNothing is overlooked here! The chips are fresh and homemade. The owner, Maria took our order and made us our margs herself. She takes pride in her place and it seems her nephew (in the kitchen) does too. Unlike the restaurant I\'d mentioned, it isn\'t dark in here. There is a full bar, tv, music and your basic furnishings. There\'s the happiest happy hour on earth...those margs I\'d mentioned... $3.00! (Select cerveza on HH too.) Other specialty drinks/tequila look inviting too. \n\n"Authenticity at a reasonable price in a family-owned Scottsdale restaurant." Is that undercooked bacon flying?! All I can say is some of the best huevos rancheros and chiliqueles I've ever had. This place was serving breakfast and although it was quiet on a Labor Day morning, the food was fantastic.\nMost dishes came with meat, but the cooks can alter it as you like. Our server was so friendly and smiley. Food arrived quickly and was just so damn good. \nI'm sure dinner menu is just as tasty, but for a delicious Mexican style breakfast, this is my new favorite. |

I am a Sichuan native and this restaurant is owned by a wonderful Sichuanese lady who makes food that is so completely different than Cantonese, Shanghainese or any other type of Chinese regional cuisine. I was recently in LA and even the sichuan restaurants there couldn't compare, I've only had as good in Vancouver. Make sure to try to their signature 'boiled beef slices in hot sauce' - while sounding very unexciting is actually a famous traditional chinese dish (the name is hard to translate). It's so good that I bag up my leftovers (even if it's just oil) and drizzle it over whatever I make the next day (it's _that_ good). It\'s like a million burning needles tap dancing on your tongue. The flavors are excellent, but "mild" will still probably be too hot for the average bear.\nNot your typical Chinese food! Love this restaurant! Good authentic Chinese food! One of my favorite! Need to get their Hui Guo Rou, Sui Zhu Yu, Fu Qi Fei Pian and more! Definitely a must try! This is a go-to place for when I have out-of-town visitors.\n\nIf you like spicy food like I do, this is heaven!! I'm not sure if there's a huge difference between traditional and medium (mild is also an option.. just not an option for me), but even the medium dishes will get your sweat glands going!\n\nMy favourite dishes are the dan dan noodles and the mapo tofu.\n\nYour stomach will probably hate you the next day, but it's so delicious that it makes it all worth it!! We eat here 3-4 times a month because they\'re close and make good food. It\'s authentic Szechuan food meaning it\'s spicy and not your typical mall Chinese. Their ma po tofu is the best in the city. If you enjoy spicy food ask for "traditional" spicy and they\'ll spice the dish according to how spicy it would be overseas, depending on the dish. |

Rude & bad staff Went there on Saturday afternoon. I really enjoyed the back patio area, looks like it was recently done.The bartender was very friendly helping us out. We ordered a batch of the pepper jack cheese bites which were amazing. Then ordered our food, and it came in a very timely manner I got the pizza sub and my buddies got some burgers. After we were done the cook came out and asked us how everything was which you don't see very often. \n\nDefinitely going back and would recommend it to people looking for grab some drinks and good food. I love Booths. The food is some of the best Lakewood has to offer. I love the pepper jack cheese bites and the peanut butter burger. The latter sounds weird but I would definitely recommend.\n\nThe only bad thing is the service at times. They are always friendly but it can take way too long to get served even when it's not very busy. Good people, really great location, tasty food and a relaxed atmosphere. I don't make it over often enough but am happy every time I do. |

They have really good smoothies but the prices for the sandwiches are SO expensive. On average, I spend 18$ for lunch which is a lot. I got a steak and cheese panini (in photo) and it cost me $8..for HALF size. I don't know that I can justify this cost because it's so much for a tiny sandwich. It tasted good but it's not 8$ good. Came in to this location since I had taken an unusual route to work and decided I might as well take advantage of my free bagel for 30 days reward. I used to visit Panera a lot more frequently when they still had another location open near my work place. Funny cuz true - I agree with Chris C.\'s previous review, they really do all look exactly the same, which isn\'t bad insofar as the decor itself goes, but, really, a bit boring. It wasn\'t very busy and early in the day so not surprisingly the place was pretty clean, and appreciated nonetheless. I don\'t go out of my way to come in, even with a free bagel every day for 30 days, since it\'s not convenient enough to warrant what you end up spending in not only in premium prices but also time and effort compared to a Tims drive-thru on most days. Again, agree with several previous reviews - the prices you pay for a breakfast or lunch are just way too expensive for a cafeteria style restaurant.\n\nThe staff was friendly but not very knowledgeable about the difference between a sprouted whole grain bagel and a regular multi grain bagel, except to say that the sprouted bagel is smaller and difficult to cut and toast. Since the sign for the multi grain bagel was missing, I couldn\'t compare for myself. I\'m going to just hope that a multi grain bagel isn\'t way more than the 240 calories for the smaller sprouted bagel.\n\nI find it highly inconvenient that if you want your bagel with any kind of spread, you have to do it yourself - especially if it\'s butter, because by the time you bring your toasted bread wherever you\'re going, it\'s not going to be anywhere near warm enough for the butter to melt. It also really adds to that cafeteria feel when you\'re scraping out little packets of butter (or cream cheese, or peanut butter, or jam, or wtv else) onto the bread yourself. Why would I pay over $4 for a bagel with butter and a coffee, both of which I have to finish making, as opposed to just doing it myself at home?\n\nHaving said that, the coffee and food are pretty good. The coffee in particular is nice since you get the choice of a flavoured brew (usually Hazelnut) in addition to the regular and decaf. They provide choices of skim, 2% and half and half cream, and Turbinado brown sugar in addition to the white sugar and sugar-free sweeteners (didn\'t notice whether they provide Stevia). I do find their bagels a a bit "pasty" - rather dry with an almost powdery finish, but definitely closer to homemade than just about any other chain bakery. I haven\'t indulged in an $18+ lunch lately but their salads and sandwiches are also usually very fresh and satisfying. They rotate their menu items quite often and keep the choices interesting.\n\nTheir pastries are rich and flaky, and many of them are quite sweet, especially the iced cookies and iced cakes, but there are some less sweet options like croissants. A cinnamon bun is huge and easily split between two people (something you might want to consider given that the calorie counts on most of the baked goods are astronomical). You can buy all kinds of freshly baked goodies and bread to bring home, with many seasonal choices of items.\n\nTheir reward program is the best I\'ve ever experienced. You don\'t have to keep spending money constantly to keep up points balances and you always get an annual birthday baked treat reward. You don\'t have to buy something in order to get said birthday baked treat reward, unlike Timothy\'s, and I\'ve never experienced anything close to the 30 days of a free bagel that I\'ve received several times now.\n\nThey do offer free Wi-Fi, although it\'s sometimes very weak. \n\nAll in all, I still come in from time to time, usually when it\'s to meet a friend for coffee and a sweet treat. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable (usually plenty of booths at most locations) and you feel like you can sit and relax - it\'s far less noisy and not "rushed" feeling compared to Starbucks or the other usual coffee shops. Overall, I prefer to buy overpriced coffee and baked goods here (even if I do have to finish making things myself) than other chains, especially if I\'m staying in. This place has really nice atmosphere during the weekend. I usually get half a frontega chicken pannini and half a cesaer salad.. and it always comes out perfect and delicious. This is my go to place for a quick sit down lunch. So glad to see Panera in Canada! They're staple when I'm state side--wish we had them in Qu\xc3\xa9bec :(\n\nA little on the pricy side and the servers all seemed to hate life and/or just want to go home...30 mins from closing, so I understand a little, but being polite wouldn't hurt. This is a brand new Panera Bread location just open up 2 months ago.\n\nI was here on a snowy Tuesday evening for a quick bite just before catching a movie across the street. It was not busy at all compared to other Panera Bread locations I have been to.\n\nThe cashier was quite patience as I tried to decide what I want to order as I always get a little over whelmed with the selection! \n\nSpinach Power Salad with Ham and Cheese Sandwich tasted A-OK! And I even got a free Birthday Pastry with my reward card!\n\nThe interior is clean and spacious. I think I would be back to use their wifi next time I am in the neighbourhood. |

Great place to sit and use the computer - not crowded, great wifi and some sockets\n\nThe food is excellent by cafe standards, I've tried two chicken salads and the quiche. The service is friendly. Menu is all in French which may be why there's not more tourist traffic, but the staff speak English. My mother and I got the salmon with lox and it was delicious. Their sweets and cappuccinos are good as well. Very cute atmosphere would definitely come back again! Delicious. We came here for breakfast three days in a row, and with all the great places around, that's saying a lot!! Love the chocolate hazelnut croissant! Also, their lattes are great! Bottom line: Come here, you won't regret it! The croissant with egg and cheese was excellent, my husband said his bagel with salmon and stuff was also very good. They gave me coffee instead of the tea I ordered, but the coffee was also quite good. Comfortable and relaxed place for a quick breakfast before exploring Montreal. |

Sesame Inn\n2. the lottery machine\n\nSesame Inn is good stuff. The egg rolls are bomb. Get a dish with shrimp in it. The shrimp is gigantic. The spice could use some help though. Between Sesame Inn and PF Changs, I'd choose Sesame Inn everytime. It's a hit in a very obscure place in station square. It's my spot! This was a good experience. The presentation & service was nice. I personally enjoyed my dish as the noodles were tasty & the vegetables were crispy! There are a few vegetarian friendly choices (such as the Bean Curd Family Style), which was ironically thin on the vegetables, but quite tasty. I'm sure others would greatly enjoy this place, but the only way I could give the full 5 stars is if there were mock meats (& good), like the place I love in Philly, but that's just me! I do recommend this place. I had a little business to do on Mount Washington this morning. So after stepping off the Mon Incline, I decided to treat myself to lunch at one of my favorite Chinese places. I opted for the Lighter Fare Chicken & Vegetables. That way, I had room for my eggroll. The chicken was absolutely perfect--not greasy at all.\n\nYes, I know that "Lighter Fare" is all relative, but that\'s my story and I\'m stickin\' to it!. This is one of my favorite chinese restaurants in Pittsburgh. Food is always good and staff very friendly. We stopped here during Station Square\'s "winter wonderland" (which was awful, btw!). We got there around 7, and I was expecting the place to be packed, given that the lower floor was basically one huge crowd of kids. Surprisingly, it was near-full, but with no wait. \n\nWe got seated quickly, and were kind of hurried to order by the server, which was understandable given the crowd. Our table (two parents + 5-year-old) got\n\n* teriyaki chicken appetizer ($7)\n* cashew chicken ($12)\n* kid\'s chicken and baby corn ($6)\n* pad thai ($11)\n\nThe good: The first two items were great . . . I\'d describe them as on the very tasty end of the mall-grade-American-Chinese food scale. \n\nThe unknown: My son ate all of the baby corn and fried rice before I could try it, so I can only assume it was good! \n\nThe bad: The kid\'s chicken was very bland and gummy. Imagine if you got a package of supermarket chicken and basically just microwaved it in water. Ick. \n\nThe amazingly awful: Okay so yes, I ordered Pad Thai at a Chinese place, maybe not a great decision. But there is NO justification for how gross the meal was. Imagine yourself at the zoo, smelling the elephant cages. That was how it tasted. I probably should have said something ("Seriously, there is something wrong with this."), but they were clearly busy, I couldn\'t really figure out what to say, and I just wanted to eat and go home. In retrospect, I really wish I had. (What if it was spoiled and somebody got sick?)\n\nThe service was almost quick enough to satisfy a hungry and overstimulated 5-year-old, which is saying a lot. The portions were large enough that the three of us were satisfied with what turned out to be 1 appetizer and 1.25 entrees (cashew chicken plus baby corn). \n\nI wish I could give 1.5 stars, as my experience was somewhere in between "eek" and "meh." I feel bad about the one star, since I\'m mostly penalizing them for one bad dish, and I didn\'t give them the opportunity to fix it. But I never got my beloved Pad Thai. And what I got was so gross that I can\'t imagine going back! |

I will give it the 1 out of 5 stars because at least I didn\'t burst into flames after eating my meal.\n\nMy first real trip to Vegas came around my 21st birthday. Day after I was on my way. After wandering around lost we ended up at the Luxor and moseyed into the Pharoah\'s Buffet. Terrible. Simply terrible. So bad I began to question the very idea of Buffets in Vegas. What were people talking about if this was so terrible? Why would people intentionally go on and on about food that is sub Golden Corral quality? Well luckily I found out that this first awful Vegas buffet experience was the exception to the rule.\n\nNow, flash forward five plus years. I am back in Vegas on a "business" trip and we decide to hit the Blue Man Group show which was, at the time, at the Luxor. We get over to the hotel with about an hour to spare and realize we\'re starving. With the combination of time and a bit of alcohol I wandered for the second time in my life into the Phabulous Pharoah\'s Pheast Buffet. Phorget it. I\'m not making the mistake a third time. Time had not healed this wound. Decent place to come for breakfast cuz it's pretty hard to mess up breakfast. I wouldn't come here for any other meal. They have the traditional American stuff, so it's like an all-you-can-eat Denny's or IHOP. |

I\'ve never had Quesada. So I checked it out. \n\nThe restaurant is located next to a Canadian Tire on Dixie and Eglinton. Its space is small, tidy, and clean. \n\nThey have three sizes for their burritos - regular, large, and "big-ass". Yup. They also have the standard protein selections - chicken, spicy chicken, steak, and chilli lime fish (ooh, intriguing). They also have an option for grilled vegetables. I had the regular-sized steak. \n\nYou can customize your burrito with all the typical fillings. What I was particularly impressed about was the amount of the sauce options they had. They had a cilantro lime sauce that was great for dipping. You can ask for as many sauces on the side as you want.\n\nThe burrito itself was good. The fillings tasted fresh, and the sauces and salsas were delicious. Unfortunately, the steak was quite dry and tough, and definitely had been sitting there for a long time (at least warm it up if it\'s gonna be there all day!). \n\nI won\'t avoid it if I\'m in the area in the future, but I also won\'t be rushing to come back. While the other fillings were good, the main draw (the steak), was just average. Maybe I\'ll try something else next time. Yay, it's finally opened! I've been a fan of the Bloor location, of it's nice to see a familiar downtown chain up in the boonies here. \n\nThe food is good. Better than Mucho Burrito across the way. \nYou have a choice of Burrito (large or small), steak, chicken, veggie, ancho pork and so many others. You also have a choice to make your Burrito choice a salad, essentially, more lettuce and no pita and you eat it with a fork. \n\nThey did a good job around the area with flyers with coupons for a burrito.\nThe owner of the company also provides very good customer service. \n\nLong time ago, there was a promotion to get a free burrito if you sign up for the newsletter, but the coupon is only valid at the chosen location. I chose the Dixie and Eglinton one, but it hadn't opened yet. Soon, after it opened, I got a free burrito coupon in my email. \nAlso I had sent some feedback about the food to the corporate webpage, and immediately got a response from Steve and offering me another free burrito to make up for it.!\n\nIt opened last week, and I've already been here 3 times!\n\nCome here at or before 12pm or around 1pm to avoid line ups. \nThe line up moves slow, but if you're not in a hurry and good company it doesn't matter much! Love this place. They do burritos right. \nI've had burritos from Fat Bastard, Burrito Boyz, Chipotle, and I have to say these are by far my favourite. You can actually taste how fresh all the ingredients are, which makes it that much better. \nI haven't tried any other items on their menu, but I usually get their Spicy Chicken burrito. We've been here twice and have had a good experience. The two times we have went it's never been busy so there's never a wait. \n\nLast week we had the burrito bowl with half grilled chicken and steak. It's a good amount for lunch. I was only able to finish half of it and ate the rest later on.\n\nThe restaurant is clean and there are plenty of tables. Was in the area for work and was tired of the usual Harveys, Swiss Chalet, Cara dominated restaurants in the area. So we tried Quesada. \n\nI had the chicken burrito in a whole wheat wrap with rice and beans, and the usual toppings. It tasted fresh, a small burrito was quite substantial, it filled my tummy and I didn't feel groggy afterwards. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area! |

What more do you need? The crowd is hit and miss. Some nights it is totally mellow and other nights it is packed. But it is always interesting. Definitely one of my favorite bars in Scottsdale. Furio feels more like an upscale lounge than a restaurant, but it can probably double as both. They have a long list of specialty drinks and martinis that they offer and a fairly good food menu. I had a really good pasta here- but the crab raviolis I got once tasted like tuna. \nThey were beyond sick. Don't get them. \nEverything else I've tried at Furio has been fab, especially the sangria. \nIt's amazing. Really, really good strong stuff. Its been awhile since I have visited Furio but there Monday night martini and manicures are the best. The martini's are special priced and the appetizers are very yummy. I also had the pleasure of having dinner there awhile back and the food was really good. Definitely give this place a try whether its for happy hour or for special date. You won't be disappointed. Last time I was at Furio was for a chick dinner and it happened to be Monday Manicure night, which was pretty fun. \n\nI've been here a few times, once for a bachelorette party, once for happy hour and once for MM night. All three times I had a good time and didn't walk out with an empty wallet (rare for old town).\n\nThe interior is pretty cool and stylish, not too obnoxious and not a dive. Cute little patio. The only pain is parking. Love Furio.\n\nEvery first Thursday of the month, they offer wine flight specials with an appetizer on the side. Manicure Mondays do nothing for me. Happy hour prices are good, food tastes great, the bar does fill up during happy hour, but the staff will seat you in the restaurant if it's not too busy and give you the same 'rates'. \nEveryone is pretty friendly and approachable. It's just a great place for happy hour or romantic dinner for two. |

They need your help...\n\nhttp://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/news/pittsburgh/s_689264.html\n\nApparently it was an inside job, and the robbery is threatening to put them out of business. Hambones is discriminatory towards our hearing impaired population. My friend and i came in for a drink and he has hearing aids and the bartender refused to serve him because he asked her to repeat herself. It's totally unacceptable and frankly disgusting. She should be fired. It caused a huge scene that could have been avoided by a more accepting and understanding bartender. Disclaimer: my only experiences at Hambone's are for drinks only and I have not had food other than the buffalo dip.\n\nNow that PHI is gone, Hambone's is one of the bars that can fill the gap in my soul that can only be filled by the greatest of dives. I just wish it would have been closer to Oakland when I was in school. I have never had a negative experience here with service and the regulars are very friendly. If you are around on a Thursday night, you must stop in for comedy open-mic night. There are plenty of other events that happen (I think Wednesdays are board game night, that was a blast) and seating is usually adequate except during Thursday night in my experience. Drinks are cheap and they always have something fun - who would have thought about serving a Hug (the little plastic barrels filled with sugary drink) and a shot? Well a genius at Hambone's did.\n\nPut it on the list if you're having a bar crawl through Lawrenceville, or just start here and stay all night. You won't be disappointed. Hambone's is a great dive bar/restaurant with awesome food and great drinks. As a vegetarian, it can be tough to find options at divey places, but Hambone's delivers! Their Gouda Mac and cheese is AMAZING and the black bean burger is incredible. It was beyond just an average veggie burger and had a nice balsamic glaze with grilled mushrooms and onions. Really great combination!\n\nThe bar can be crowded depending on what time you arrive, and the area surrounding the bar is small. There is some seating against the wall, and additional dining room seating in the next room. They frequently have events such as live bands or, when we were there, a burlesque event. Most have a cover to enter the dining room, but the bar is always open for business. Definitely recommend for a laid back experience in Lawrenceville. Not sure how I've neglected to review Hambone's considering it's probably my favorite spot in Lawrenceville. Their burgers are top notch, Mac n cheese is divine, and taco night specials can't be beat. And their drinks are always well made with no skimping on the alcohol. Great musical entertainment too. While I enjoy other bars in the area, if I want to eat, not leave hungry or poor, and avoid a potentially pretentious clientele, I'll be eating and drinking it up with the friendly folks at Hambones. |

Best pastrami on plain bagel I have ever had. This is the place for bagels in Las Vegas. Wife had to get Starbucks and this place was next door. Glad I tried as it is damn good One of my biggest Vegas restaurant regrets is that I didn't make it to the Montesano's Italian restaurant across town before they closed last year. Luckily, they're back in business on my side of town so I can pop by frequently! They took over a bagel shop and upgraded the product and vastly expanded the bakery offerings, adding tons of cookies and cakes. The traditional black and whites are enormous and only $3, while the giant tray of coffee cake is probably going to be my next business breakfast contribution.\n\nMy go-to order here is the Nova lox sandwich. At $10, I can customize my bagel (or bialy) and house-made schmear choice without an upcharge. I usually go savory with Everything, Cheddar, or Onion, but always get the scallion cream cheese. Bagels are always notably fresh and have just the right chew, and the lox is portioned well. Even going during peak weekday breakfast hours, they get me in and out and back on the road super quick (and with a smile!), and the portion is enough for breakfast and lunch. I've also tried the pastrami sando, which was super tender (add mustard!), but usually stick to the above. All sandwich orders come with a side and pickle, making more than enough food even if you're ravenous. This is a great little bagel shop. I got the breakfast bagel and really enjoyed it. They offer great prices, great selection and great service. Makes New York Crumb Cake, and like his coffee crumb cake it's great. After my doctor's appointment across the parking lot I happened to see their sign. Always craving a good bagel I decided to give it a try not expecting much mainly because I have not found good bagels anywhere in Vegas. Got a half dozen with an extra one being free. Liked the free one! Got them home and immediately ate one. Really really good! I grew up back east. I would say very similar in taste. Cooked just right for the best combination of crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Will definitely be back. Looking forward to trying other things there. In addition to the good bagels the lady at the front counter was very nice. |

The staff went out of their way to ensure we were happy when it turned out they were out of the ingredients to make the sandwich I wanted. The Chef came to my table and offered anything on the menu. \n\nThey had a great selection of grab and go food or you could order and wait for a text at your table. The fries are shoestring and are seasoned to perfection. \n\nOnly cons: The seeded bread for the kid sandwich and there is a bit of a wait when multiple families hit the cafe all at once. For a kitchen in a kids museum, I was pretty impressed! A huge selection of cupcakes and desserts for your sweet tooth, and the a few delicious looking salads, plus regular goodies like chicken fingers and fries (which my son loved!). I almost got a salad, but then saw their Med Plate - omg yum! Hummus, warmed and toasted pita, fresh cucumbers and carrot sticks - srsly amazing! Prob best pita bread I've ever had with a plate like this. No joke. And I've had a lot. Great service - took our number and texted us when the food was ready so we could wander around if we wanted. Plenty of comfy seating in a bright and airy space. very nice! We ate here for lunch today and were all sadly disappointed in the food quality. Very dry chicken (tasted reheated), chicken pita and chicken sandwich had no flavor and a lack of utensils and napkins available to diners made it hard to enjoy lunch. It was conveniently located inside the museum, which was nice- just wish the quality of food was better. Next time we will stop to eat before we go to the museum. Pretty bad service at the discovery place in downtown Charlotte. Had to wait 30 mins for good to be ready although it's mostly fast food. And here is the ridiculous thing, One has to pay minimum 15 % tip for all orders although you have to go and pick up the order once notified by text. They also do not have a serving tray so had to go multiple times to pick up my order of two pizzas and salad. \n\nThese guys needs to take a hint from Service at Chick- Fil- A. They serve your food at the table no tips needed. It took 30 minutes to get two kids grilled cheeses. The grilled cheeses were soggy and made with a bread that only by 70 year old father would pick. It has seeds all along the crust and mixed in to the bread. Why a restaurant in a children's museum would try to make gourmet grilled cheeses for the kids menu is very odd. My kids threw away most of the sandwich. |

For those from New York LA or San Francisco, not so much. Large portions and good service. The lobster sauce and hot and sour soup were hits. The egg fu yong we would pass on next time. Stuck in a strip mall, this place makes the grade as a fine local Chinese worth visiting when you're in the mood for sweet and sour. This place is so good it's Mesa hidden treasure . The last time I was here was like back in..07 I think..and came back and the food is still awesome!.\nThe only thing is the service that they gave us was not to good. She was probably having a bad day but when your serving customers you should try to but all your stuff aside and try to give the best service you can. Other than that this place is still very good I will come back again for sure. Won't let it last to long to come back Good food and even better service! They were so sweet and attentive and the food really was delicious and there was a TON of food left over from their $8 lunch special. I received a cup of soup and an egg roll and it was a great proportion of meat to vegetables and the veggies were crisp fresh and delicious. Definitely will recommend and I love to support small businesses like this one that deserve it! I love this Chinese restaurant. So good, great people, very nice! They are very quick and always are on top of things. I'm not having to worry about them coming to refill my drink. Great place to hangout with friends. THE KUNG PAO CHICKEN IS LIFE!!!!!\nI tried this place a couple nights ago and I have been on a hunt for a seriously long time to find the perfect plate of Kung Pao chicken and Golden Valley Chinese has delivered. I don't know for certain if the restaurant delivers but even if it doesn't I am coming here. I only tried the Kung Pao but I am very eager to try all my favorite dishes here. Even if I like nothing else I will be coming back again and again for the Kung Pao. Based on the fact the that Kung Pao is delicious I am going to say that I will probably not be disappointed by them for everything else.\nI ordered for take-out and the restaurant was small but looked clean and I was helped right away and my food was ready quick. All good things on a Monday when I'm hangry and not wanting to cook.\nSo excited to come back and try more. Thanks for being awesome! |

I never turn away from drinks, especially in the afternoons and suggested by two locals. They had plastic tables and chairs setup outside so people can enjoy the weather, this was end of August by the way, the nice server brought us our pitcher of drinks and we were never hassled. We drank until we were content. Sorry no food this time, maybe I should be back one day . We love this place, instantly made to feel at home with amazing service, great prices and wonderful atmosphere. Thank you guys, we will be back soon! Came here to grab some late dinner. The server seated us and came by with menus. We were one of two tables who were being served. We put our drink and food order in. The server came back with drinks in 10 minutes. We had ordered 3 mojitos which all had no alcohol in it whatsoever. We waited another 45 minutes for food which came 10 mins later. Wings came out undercooked, burger buns were stale, shrimp patties had no shrimp in them and fries were over cooked. During the 1 hour + from when we were seated to when we were seated, the server and the bartender were both hitting on a customer at the bar and not focused on getting the food in and cooked properly. Avoid this place at all costs, you will waste time, money and your patience. I would say 2.5 stars but given good service I went up to 3 stars. Food overall was just ok nothing really amazing about it. My friend did like the grilled squid. I had sangria which was small and not really good. I also had chicken kabobs with rice and salad. It was just not good as what good Portuguese food I'm used to. Service and atmosphere was good and main reason with this rating. Nice little restaurant! The decor is modern and very stylish, and the summer features a terrace. Pretty good drinks, and the staff are nice and very informed. The food is great, and presented (plated) very well! The chorizo tastes amazing; and the grilled chicken salad is immense, loaded with avocados, and other fruit (and doesn't leave you feeling lethargic). |

Sunday evening, not a lot of people and I have been waiting for 20 minutes for the waiter. This is my first time here and most likely will be my last. Don't come here. McDonald's is better. This was are first time at this restaurant. We had the best service, her name was Kiera. She told us all about the place, checked on us several times and they were very busy. Food was so good, we will go back again! Wow that is a lot of TV sports going on at once. The food was great and I like all the different beer choices Very disappointed tonight. I placed a to-go order for my family, and other than the chicken tenders for the kids, the rest of the food was nearly inedible. My wife's burger was raw in the middle, not even rare, raw. We ordered Medium well, and the middle was still cold. My burger was rare at best and i also ordered medium well. Also, I had added bacon to my burger, however, it was missing. My mother ordered the prime dip, and though the flavor was good, the meat was tough and chewy. Overall, not worth the $70.05 tab. It's a shame, we are fans of the oldtown Scottsdale location but this one is just down the street from our house. I did call to inform them of the mistake, and Casey, the manager was very friendly and apologetic. He offered a $25 gift card, but when the whole order was wrong, i don't think that's enough.

The best BBQ in the city! Don't expect friendly servers. It can get really busy here. And I read a review, definitely do not take a date here unless you want them to experience first hand Chinese experience. This place blows away all my favorite chinese places back home. It is so much more authentic. We ordered the bbq pork, a spicy chicken dish, a spicy clam dish, and a soup. It gets a 5 star for the quality of the food, however keep in mind that I'm used to DC chinese food. I can't wait to try the other chinese places while I'm in town. We went here for new year eve dinner and ordered a few dishes. We noticed one of the dish we order wasn't a fair size comparing to the other dishes we ordered so we told the server that it looks like half the serving is missing and she said it's like that.. we didn't argue just thought this place is crazy expensive if that's the amount we got for string beans. As we continued dinner we noticed the other table have in constant portions on these dishes too. So I'm just guessing there kitchen cook did a poor job on portions on their dishes. We end up spending 80 dollar on 4 dishes and no leftovers which is expensive! For the amount we spend we could've went for sushi.. it would've been cheaper too I visited Sun's last night for the first time at about 10pm, and it was packed. As mentioned, there's great variety on the menu (you won't find ginger beef or chicken fried rice lurking on these pages)... and different stuff during the day, in the evening, and late-night. \n\nWe ordered the Chinese fried dough with beef (the perfect late-night indulgence) and the Szechuan steamed fish (beware that if you're bothered by tripe, it does come with tripe mixed in with your fish). I've got to say, it was the most bizarre Szechuan dish I've ever had, because there was curry mixed in. Sure, you got your regular chilis and everything in there, but... curry/cumin?\n \nThree things you need to know about Sun Chui Kee: \nNumber 1- Pee before you go, because there is only one toilet, and it's always occupied. \nNumber 2- The waiter/waitress doesn't have a grudge against YOU, he/she just doesn't care for anyone, and you need to make an effort to catch their attention to order, to pay, or to get any kind of service. \nNumber 3- If at all possible, try to order dishes where you receive free congee, because ordering rice on the side will cost you much more than you ever thought possible ($4.00 for 2 people?!) I have come here for lunch and dinner numerous times the past several years with both family and friends. It hasn't changed a lot except that you will taste the difference when they change or hire new cooks. This can be quite a loud place to eat at and the staff aren't the most attentive or friendly but it's also a place I would recommend for great BBQ meat and Chinese food. They can get quite busy too, especially during lunch time on the weekend.\n\nThe menu selection is pretty good with a variety of soup and stir-fried noodles, fried rice, sandwiches, congee, baked rice and spaghetti, and various Asian style drinks. If you're interested in their BBQ meats, go early to ensure you get what you want as it's only served during lunch time to about 3-4pm when they sell out. Although their prices are a bit higher than other places serving BBQ meats, the constant line of customers getting take out should tell you just how good it is. I will say that the wait time for food during lunch is the worst as it can sometimes be around 30 minutes after ordering.\n\nTheir regular dinner time runs to about 9pm before they bring out their late night dinner menu. The perk of this late night dinner menu is that the items are cheaper and when you order two dishes, you can get unlimited refills of Chiu Chow style congee.\n\nOverall, a great place to go for good Hong Kong style food and we will continue to dine here for a long time to come. |

Cool, trendy vibe with a fun sports bar as well! Low key night uptown. Stopped into the local new restaurant. The decor consisted of various artwork scattered throughout the restaurant with nice accents. We were immediately seated at our table. Hubby ordered lemon peppered wings, well seasoned not overwhelming. I tried the grass fed burger with the fries. The burger was good and fresh but could have used more seasoning. Overall good experience, food ranged from 15-30 pp. Noca Uptown is very posh without feeling stuffy. Diverse menu that mixes Northern California cuisine with Louisiana creole dishes. Trying the crawfish croquettes and Noca Surf and Turf for my first dish. The food is seasoned very well, served fresh, and with a classic yet welcoming twist. Definitely look forward to dining here for many special occasions to come! My friend and I decided to come and try Noca tonight just to get out and have a drink. Upon entrance inside the establishment I was excited because I love new night spots in Charlotte. My friend and I walked in and sat at the bar waiting to be serviced. It was toward the end of the night and the bar really wasn't that busy or full. We tried flagging down the Asian female bartender as well as the two male bartenders working tonight. The female bartender looked very unbothered as if she was just behind the bar to be there, not to work. We sat at the bar for a good 20\nMinutes trying to be patient, however the lack service and attentiveness resulted in our departure. It is really sad that the service in this establishment was so poor. As follow member of the hospitality industry I feel bad service is a representation of the establishment as a whole. I'm disappointed that I will not be bad, however a few words of advice would be to train employees on proper service as well as customer service. Brought my friends birthday here and had a blast! The food was next level and the service second to none! Can't wait for the nightclub portion to open and to spend more time and money here! Cheers to my man Slater! |

It has!\n\nWe had the lunch special which includes a cup of egg flower/egg drop soup and the entree has a cream cheese wonton, an egg roll, and fried rice. The portions were large and the food was good. We tried the orange chicken and the sweet and sour chicken and enjoyed our meals. Actually, the egg rolls were very good.\n\nThe service was good but since there was only one other table I would expect it to be. I discovered this place a year and a half ago. Immediately fell in love with it because the taste was the closest I found to being back home in the Midwest. Recently (New Years Eve) I noticed a decline in the quality of food. We ordered take out. The calamari was rubbery and the rice was old and stale. I didn't give up there, I thought it was just a bad night bcuz of the holiday. Nope! We went back tonight, our egg rolls weren't fresh as they had been in the past and my dish had 3x more water chestnuts than it did shrimp! I'm so disappointed. I would have told someone but I don't think it would have mattered. I just hope they noticed the plate full of water chestnuts I sent back when I was done with my meal. Also, it seems the service is slower than it had been in the past. There were 3 tables I heard mention the timeframe it took to get there food or get waited on... Fresh and hot egg rolls on the happy hour, shrimp fried rice and chow main with steamed rice! House Cab is spot on especially just getting off a stuffy flight How disappointing. Immediately noticed after entering at 12:30 pm something was not quite right if only 2 tables were occupied. Service was awful. Ordered Cashew chicken and received Almond chicken. Upon informing the owner of the mistake, she took the dish back and placed cashews on top of the almonds and added pea pods. What the heck?? Never offered a discount, much less took the cost of the wrong dish off the check. If the dish was good tasting, perhaps it could have been overlooked. But the food was tasteless. Even the fried rice was bad. How do you mess up on fried rice? Will not be back. Wife and I went on two occasions and food is consistent and delicious. Many different choices to choose from. Since it is near we will be able to try some of the interesting dishes, don't have to drive so far to get good Asian food. |

If you live in Peoria or Glendale and Friday night rolls around, you may not feel like making the long trek out to the *cool* parts of town. When that conversation comes up, you know that you can come here and have multiple options. If one of them isn't scratching whatever itch you need to scratch, you can quickly move on from there. For this, Calico Jack's is a completely fine option. \n\nI should say that I have no interest in reviewing this as a restaurant. Other reviews seem to cover that aspect of the experience, and anything I have to say probably wouldn't be helpful. What this place is to me is somewhere where you order 4 shots of Jager, pay $32 (just a shot in the dark on the price, but Dos Equis is $6 per bottle so it's probably not far off) plus tip on that tab, and go out have fun on the dance floor if that's your thing. On a weekend, if you're a male without female companions, expect to pay a cover charge. $5 will get you in, which is completely reasonable. It also doesn't take too long to get a drink at the bar here, since they have two separate bars along with a server that sells a simplified offering of alcohol from an accessible location. One positive thing is that there is a part of the patio where the music isn't piped into, so you can have a conversation at a reasonable volume. However, it is where they quarantine the smokers. \n\nUltimately, whenever I end up at Westgate on a weekend night, I stop by for a little while and don't regret the decision immediately. It seems to know what kind of audience it's aiming for, and competently caters to them. One of my friends birthdays is this weekend so last night me and 5 others went to the Coyotes/Sharks game to have some fun. The birthday boy chose this place for his birthday dinner. Here were the problems we encountered during our time:\n\n1. Our server was Chloe and she did not even come to greet us for a solid 10-15 minutes.\n2. Once she took our drink order (5 waters and 4 alcoholic drinks) it took about 15 minutes for those to be delivered. \n3. My boyfriend and I ordered chips and salsa and guac which ended up be $10 in total... just for chips and salsa and guac. The chips were not even that good\n4. Our food took a while to come out, which would be okay if the place was busy, but it wasn't. We were the third party to be sat in the restaurant. \n5. One couple ordered the nachos and they said it was delicious, another person ordered the Calico Chicken Sandwich which he said was good, and the last ordered wings which he ate all. I ordered the fajitas which were pretty decent except for the fact that they gave me flour tortillas (I asked for corn) and didn't notice until I took a bite. I am allergic to wheat.\n6. Our waitress did not stop to check on us at all and when two people wanted to order another drink, one asked for theirs and then she walked away so fast before the other could ask for theirs. Service was not good.\n7. When we wanted our checks, we asked her for them but before we could tell her how to split them she walked away. When she came back after 10 minutes with the one check, it took her about 10 more minutes just to split it.\n8. The cherry on top was as we were waiting for our checks, a cockroach crawled across our table.\n\nWould definitely never go back and highly recommend to choose a different restaurant. Came here prior to a football game. I expected expensive food and drink, but come on, $14 for a burger, and $7 for a domestic beer. I'll wait and buy a $8 burger in the stadium. . . Dropped by Calico Jack's after tonight's Red Wings victory in Game 3 to kill time and let traffic thin. Scanned the area and decided to give these folks our business. We got inside where a total of maybe 5 or 6 other people were eating and drinking.\n\nWe took a seat and waited far too long for service for such an empty place. Once we were served the folks were friendly enough and I was high on Red Wings victory so I let it slide.\n\nThen we ordered...\n\nOrdered the quesadillas and two beers (Tecate). First our beer arrived...in cans. I've never been served beer in a can unless it was PBR and even then we were told up front it was in a can. Okay, I can live with that.\n\nThen the quesadillas arrived. They were no better than Taco Bell and probably triple the cost. I expect to get gouged a bit at a restaurant just outside an arena but this was ridiculous.\n\nTonight was the first and last time I will visit Calico Jack's. For the prices charged the food has to be superior to edible for me to even think of returning. Service was slow even though there wasn't a crowd. Food was mediocre and more expensive than it seemed worth. You don't get chips and salsa with your meal, had to pay $5 but the salsa was good and had a nice kick. Probably the best thing about our meal. |

We had a party of 9, even my daughters grilled cheese was cold and not grilled. Huge bill for nasty food, weird service and a regret for not just going to Harrolds. I could make a list of things wrong with the food but I would be typing all day. Won't go back. Went back yesterday, and we were disappointed.\n\nMy burger? Could have gotten more food AND a better burger at Burger King.\nHer tuna melt? Just craptastic. \n\nBoth of us didn't feel great after our lunches.\n\nOn the upside, the service on this rainy day was a lot better. \n\nNone the less, gave them two choices, and I'm not going to give them a third. Ugh, we really should have read the reviews before coming here.\n\nWe decided last Saturday night to ditch the Arcadia or Scottsdale dinner scene and drive up to Cave Creek for the evening. Thank goodness for the great weather and live band outside at Heralds that we could hear from our outdoor table. \n\nWhen we arrived, we asked if could sit outside (we saw seats available when we were walking in). The hostess went outside and then came back to let us know there were none available and we would have to sit inside, then walked away. Not wanting to sit inside (all I saw was an ugly red interior and a huge, empty restaurant), I asked the other hostess how long the wait would be. Luckily, she went outside and there were two tables for us to choose from! Thank goodness for her.\n\nWe asked for water right away, that came about 10 minutes later. They did have a nice beer selection, however, my beer was room temperature, hardly cold. When we ordered, I made sure they had bbq sauce as that\'s what I dip my hamburgers in (weird, i know) - she said that was no problem. So our meals came - apparently they "discontinued" carrying bbq sauce. My burger was just ok. My fries were good though! My boyfriend\'s steak was barely edible. He said his baked potato was the highlight of his meal.\n\nOh, and not that this matters, but we found grammar errors on the menu! And, the menu itself is quite basic in food offerings. Nothing unique at all.\n\nI think this is the first one-star review I\'ve ever given. However, it was sadly, a huge disappointment. This place looks like a cool bar/restaurant but it was terrible. We waited 30 min for a burger and then the server charged a $5 split plate fee because my husband and I split! He didn't even make us aware of the charge until we got our bill and then told us that it was noted on the menu so he couldn't reverse it. We called the manager after we left and he said he would credit our check. Well he never did it!\nThe burger was overcooked and the fries were cold. I would NEVER visit this place again! On one hand I want to give this place two stars. Mostly for:\n- Food quality\n- the kitchen\n- The DJ for the Bears game.\n\nOn the other, I want to give it four stars for:\n- The server girl we had\n- Price of beer\n- Price of food\n- Being better than Harold's\n\nOne of my friends and I rode our motorcycles out to Cave Creek last Sunday, October 7 at around 11:30 in the morning. Originally we had intended to go to Harold's as my friend had never been there, and even though I loathe Harold's like I loathe over priced beer, it was a cultural moment he needed to witness himself. Needless to say, we didn't stay.\n\nWe sauntered over to Cave Creek, in search of a beer and some lunch. And a coke for me. Damn hangover...\n\nI ordered a burger, a beer and a coke. Simple, straight forward. Ordered it medium rare, with fries, and nothing more than onions as a garnish.\n\nBuddy ordered a salad and a beer. He's a skinny bastard.\n\nAnd here's where it went wonky.\n\nI get my food. 20 minutes goes by, poor little server/host girl keeps apologizing, as my friend's salad is still not there.\n\n30 minutes go by, he cancels the order. It shows up about 4 minutes later. Kitchen 100% lost the order. Genius!\n\nI don't think we'll go back. I understand that with the exception of Binkley's that Cave Creek is a tourist trap devoid of any food worth eating, but this is a bit much. \n\nCave Creek Tap Haus, step it up or shut down! |

This is way to good for a mall! Our son actually stopped eating his beloved panda express lunch after he had one bite of their chicken shawarma. The portions were generous so sharing with his appetite was not a problem. The staff was friendly. I cant wait till we go back. This establishment is no longer in the mall and is being replaced by a Gyro shop. So sad to see this great place leave! this was the absolute BEST falafel I've ever had and for so cheap? amazing. excellent vegetarian options. I've found my new favorite place to eat. Super nice. Guy was working alone he brought my order out to me because it was a slow day. They also brewed the tea correctly so it doesn't taste like mud like most places. Everything was fresh and cooked well and I will come back next time I'm in the area. I was staying at the Hilton and walked past several restaurants to eat at the Sahara Express. I chose the number seven (chicken schwarma) with a couple extra pitas and a bottle of water. The bill was eight dollars and the experience was fantastic. The Sharma came out hot, freshly cooked and delectable! I've eaten a lot of entr\xc3\xa9es in sealable Styrofoam containers but this is absolutely my favorite! I'm a sucker for rice and their saffron rice was some of the best I've ever had! The salad, too, was infused with mint that was surprising. Delicious! \n\nI had a discussion with the worker/owner after I finished, thanking him for such a wonderful meal. He said they're looking for a new location because the mall seems to be a dead end. |

I have tried many things on their menu, and I have yet to complain about their food. \n\nSo if you're ever in Tempe, and looking for a good Thai place, visit Papaya Thai. I order delivery from here all the time. It takes a while to get here even though they are less than a mile from my apartment, but it is well worth the wait. The food is amazing! I order through livingsocial and it is super convenient. The traditional pad thai is awesome. I have not had anything I don't like yet. All the food is delicious! I'm re-ordering pure and simple... pad thai's off the chain, spring rolls very light on the tummy! Dingy interior with bad lighting and unclean feeling doesn't help this place out. The menus are old and crumpled. There's some broken down home made fish tanks at the entrance that add to unkempt appearance. \n\nI ordered lunch and it took a long time for the food to arrive over 30 minutes, can't understand this as there was only one other customer. I think they focus on the to go food out the back door. The server seemed to spend most of her time back there.

I only had drinks.. The menu seemed weak and overpriced. The bartenders were nice to me. I see a lot of reviews about mean staff. But i am very attractive so most people are nice to me. Its a bar.. Regular prices and specials.. Regular bar food... No pool table I could find.. For the hottest bartender join ( kaylee ) Wednesday nite at Hot Shots , fast , effent , Breathtaking beautiful , Wednesday 6 pm to close I love this place! The food is awesome, reasonably priced. Beers are cold and they have beer specials all the time. The bartenders are all really nice and attentive. Its my weekly bar of choice!! I love this places great staff and the cooks are awesome except for that older gentleman he seems like he doesnt want to cook anymore |

They were enthusiastic when we walked in, the service was fair, and the place is cute and decorated.\n\nBut the food was bad.\n\nWe started with guacamole- it was the grossest I have ever had, completely overpowered with onions, yet still tasted bland. It didn't even taste like there were avocados in there. And it didn't get any better. Our entrees were bland (just excess salt), the refried beans were a creepy grey color, the sopapillas were bland. It just was not a good dinner. don't go here. why would you? it makes your body feel like it's been hit by a dumptruck, la fiesta will make you run to la bathroom. don't. don't. don't. (especially combo #8) I think that like most Mexican restaurants, some of the dishes are so-so, but others are amazing. My favorite, which isn't exactly on the menu, is the carnitas tacos. By recommendation of the host, you should order the carnitas extra crispy. They have great salsa, and their side of guacamole is really great, and the amount you get for the price can't be beat. I find the staff to be friendly, but not overbearing like other reviewers have said. All in all, I hope that this restaurant succeeds. The people have a good heart and the food is good too. !Hola meego! That\'s the enthusiastically friendly greeting everybody gets at this fun little Mexican restaurant. The decor matches the enthusiasm of the staff well: bright colors (even for a Mexican restaurant) are everywhere and everything intangible about this place is bouncing off the walls cheery. I guess its not a coincidence its called "The Party".\n\nThey have a pretty extensive menu of all the expected classic dishes, plus many that you might not expect. I ordered the "Ceviche Mexicano" with chopped (cooked) Tilapia and shrimp in a very lively light lime sauce over tostadas with lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, onions and other good stuff like beans, rice cheese, etc. I liked it a lot. The lady had very good Burritos Suizos, which were far too big to finish. Prices were $10 or less per entree. Good fried tortilla chips with salsa were gratis.\n\nThe highlight of the meal were the (Friday night special) 27 ounce Margaritas for $5.95 each. Dont bother with the math. This is by far the best Margarita deal I have ever come across in this town or any other en los Estados Unidos. No, I didn\'t drive home.\n\nI can\'t review this place without one more mention of the fact that everybody working here is just so damn nice. As our meal was winding down, no fewer than 5 staff members asked us how everything was. Any server/busser coming within 3 tables of us checked our table to see if we needed anything, every single time.\n\nLa Fiesta is not fine dining. However, it is a superlative casual dining Mexican restaurant and delivers incredible value and I can\'t wait to go back. Amazing strong margaritas. Everything is super flavorful especially the ground beef. It was all perfectly seasoned. I'm shocked at the other reviews I have been to Mexican restaurants all around the country ad this place is the real deal. Good authentic Mexican with a good price with attentive service. |

Good quality, authentic dishes, good service, friendly people. Clean facilities. Free shuttle home if you drink, all of these - 5 stars. \n\nOne start less the moment you read your bill and there is a $2.99 charge for the habanero sauce I requested. \n\nI\'ve eaten here half dozen times. The salsa is "mild" and acceptable. I understand the demographic placement of this restaurant so that\'s fine. Asked the waiter for something a little hotter... And boy did that burn on the way out - no pun intended. :-) \n\nSpent $118 on 3 adults and 2 children. Shouldn\'t a salsa be complimentary on a $20 dish? It\'s not the 3 bucks- it\'s the principle. \n\nPaid the bill anyway and refused to have the charge removed- that wasn\'t the point (but they missed that). The manager on staff schooled me on the need to charge for sauce. I don\'t feel I needed lessons on salsa. I have eaten at many Mexican cuisine restaurants. I am native Mexican. Never once have I paid $3 for 1oz of salsa. Great location clean facility. Sadly the food here isn't as good as the original one. Tried this place 2 times and I'm done. Rice was oily and under cooked. We ordered stuff that we had to ask multiple times for. The chicken enchiladas there are bland and the red sauce taste salty and likes can off spaghetti O's! The fresh flour tortillas were burnt and brittle. Ordered my picky kid a basic burger and fries to have the fries be frozen in the middle! Come on really? Two stars for the friendly staff and quick seating but food wise go elsewhere people We continue to be impressed with this place. I like the bean dig and the food is really good. Our servers have kept up with our needs. We eat there once a week - the service is really great. The waiters and the bussers are awesome! We never run out of anything before they are bringing refills, the food comes pretty quickly too. Food is good, authentic Mexican food. I think it's better than the downtown location by far.\n\nWhoever does the hiring and training should be congratulated! I usually enjoy coming here on my lunches weekly when i have the server Juan. But tonight i came with a couple friends because we were craving a michelada. Our bartender Mayra seemed to not be too thrilled to have us in her section. She explained that they don\'t make micheladas without shrimp, which is odd,\nBecause I\'ve ordered micheladas there without shrimp before... nonetheless, We ordered micheladas with pac\xc3\xadficos. She brought out our beers with salt and lime and no tomato juice/ Clamato... when i brought this to her attention, she had an attitude and brought us a small cup of Clamato for two "micheladas". At this point we were over the attitude and the disgusting drinks and left. Really enjoyed coming here because of Juan during lunch but probably won\'t be coming back again during dinner or for a quick drink any time soon. |

We were curious about the food here and dropped by for dinner. Most items on the menu was spicy with select few that are not. The one spicy dish we ordered was the cabbage in chili oil with meat which was delicious. The non spicy dishes we got which include mei chai kou zhou with steamed bun, and lamb stew were pretty bland and below expectations. Your best bet is to choose spicy dishes as that is their specialty. That is, if you can handle the heat of course. Service was good and food was average. It was too Grissy and it had a weird smell. we didn't not wait for too long on the food. environment was comfortable. It was empty when I visited the place on a Saturday lunch time, but didn't mind that. I've had plenty of food Hunan food in LA, so have pretty high standards.This place is decent, but not great. First of all, it's just not very spicy. I didn't really need water. I guess this can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on your preferences. \n\nThe dishes are decent... not fantastic, but not bad either. If I hadn't had the good stuff before, I think I probably would have enjoyed it more, and been a repeat customer. \n\nDef worth trying, but don't go out of your way for it. Nice and inexpensive. Lots of vegetarian choices. We ordered the spicy stir fried eggplant and a dish with lotus root. The eggplant dish was the best eggplant dish I've had across cuisines. The lotus root dish was good but a bit crunchy for my liking. With drinks and 2 rice orders, it came to around $30 with tip. Serving sizes are big - there will be enough for two lunches tomorrow as well.\n\nThis restaurant is located inside the Thornhill square mall, at a location that has seen multiple restaurants come and go. Hope these guys are here for keeps. Hunan cuisine is known for being dry hot and it can be really hot! \n\nHunan Restaurant and Bar as the name implies it is specialized in Hunan cuisine. So be prepared! If you cannot take the heat, you will definitely not good to able to enjoy some of the authentic dishes.\n\nHunan cuisine uses a lot of fresh peppers. I do love fresh peppers but I did overdose that evening...\n\nWe ordered:\n\nMixed Cold Dishes ($6.95)\n- Nice and refreshing with raw carrot, cucumber, peanuts, cured meat\n- Seasoned with just enough spiciness with chili hot and cilantro\n- I feel like drinking a beer \n\nStir Fried A-Vegetables with Black Bean and Chili ($8.95)\n- The spiciness and the tartness gave this dish an interesting complex taste\n- Fresh chili uses to spice up the dish!\n- Hot! I feel like drinking a beer\n\nPork with Garlic and Steamed Corn Bun ($9.95)\n- Cured pork with more chili! \n- Don't mistaken those green strips as green onion....\n- hot and salty... the cured pork is quite tender\n- Hot! Hot! I need a beer!\n\nStuffed Pork Pancake ($4.95)\n- Though the filling were juicy but with all the other spicy dishes it is hard to taste the seasoning\n- This is the only non spicy dish we ordered for the night and it was served at the end\n- I don't like the wrapping as it was pan fried to crispy and it is way too hard \n\nThe decoration here is nice and roomy compare to other places I been to. \n\nIt is located at the back of the shopping plaza so might be hard to locate. But just circle around you will not miss those flashing blue lights!\n\nHunan has over 4,000 dishes, I might have to come back again and again to just have a taste of other dishes! But I don't think my Yelp friend can handle all these heat.. WATER please! |

What I didn't expect was that, it would be sold out by the time I got there.... WAH! \nI was very saddened by this but regardless, I wanted my durain! I ended up trying the Sago Durian which turned out to be quite refreshing, Other dessert places fill their sago with sugar but Full house uses the durian fruit as the sweetner. It really balanced all the flavours rogether which I really liked and you also dont get that really sweet sugary aftertaste lodged in your throat. \nI will be back! ..... for the durian pancake.... and other stuff too. If you're coming here, you've got to try one of their durian desserts - especially their durian pancakes (also comes in mango flavour). it's a essentially a crepe textured thing with a dollop of cream and durian (mango) inside. Sounds simple, but simple can be a delicious thing! The owner of this place is straight from Hong Kong and makes amazing Asian desserts. There is actually a place that sells desserts in Hong Kong by the same name (same Chinese name that is). \n\nMy parents took me here and I fell in love! I'm a huge fan of the black sesame dessert. Honestly, I'm not sure of the exact name in English but it's the soupy dessert that is made from ground up black sesame seeds. \n\nEverything is made on the premise fresh and it's guaranteed to be piping hot when you get it, unless you ordered a cold dessert. If you see in their fridge those round yellow ball looking things, those are called Durian pancake. It's filled with fresh mashed up durian (that spiky fruit you see in Asian grocery stores) and fresh cream wrapped in a soft pastry. \n\nIt is located inside a plaza and it is quite a small place. Has approximately 4 tables that each hold about 4 people but they will bring out the fold out tables and chairs and set them up outside in the plaza hallway.\n\nHonestly, you'll be very confused when looking at that very large menu, so go with a friend that knows their Asian desserts and be open to try anything because there are some weird things on the menu that you may have never heard of before. My favourite place to get Chinese desserts after dinner. Their durian pancake is my absolute favourite. They're mango sago I think it's called is so good. It's a family run business with good service. \n\nOnly con is they only accept cash. And their dessert is a fair bit pricy for a small portion. This dessert place is one of the best, so far in Toronto. If you're a DURIAN LOVER, this is a MUST!!! |

It was quick, tasty, and cheap. I really enjoyed my frito pie slider. My son was jealous. He wasn't overjoyed with his burrito, but, realistically, he doesn't appreciate when spices are involved. plenty of parking. standard taco bell service. Hell no my company is all writing corporate today about this locale. False ads items come in smaller container many in different container you'll get fries in xsmall envelopes!! I must have come on a bad night. The Spicy Potato Soft taco barely had any potatoes, the spicy chicken quesadilla was sloppy, and the Crunchy Frito Burrito didn't have any Fritos and tasted like cardboard. Taco Bell you did me wrong tonight. |

I don't know if it was worth the cost. I'm not sure if I would order again. The food is sub-par in comparison to other sub shops here in Madison. But today just put me over the edge. I ordered a lunch box special and iced tea. W/tax, tip and delivery charge, it came to $14. The driver arrived with ONLY my sandwich. I'm like wha??? She apologized and said she would be right back with the chips and iced tea. A half hour later I called the store and the guy on the phone tells me she hasn't even gotten back to the store, they are really busy and would I accept a store credit. I accepted it but now I wish I hadn't. I now wish I put my boots and coat on and walked to the BP and got a mocha frappe, a bag of chips and made some type of sandwich or soup here at home. Would have cost less, for sure.\n\nDon't bother with Silver Mines. Cousins is much better (even though they don't deliver) and Pita Pit on State St is fab! I cannot brag enough about Pita Pit! Fresh food, great service, quick delivery...too many places to choose from to accept less-than-stellar service and food. I have ordered from here twice, and got two sandwiches each time ( one for that day and one for the next day). First time was ok, but the Italian type sub had way to much oil on it. It was just an oily mess and tasted awful. The chicken one was great though in a tortilla. The delivery time was lengthy but not terribly bad. About 45 min. \n\nThe second time I order (today) was ridiculous! I forgot my lunch today and was super busy so I ordered my super late lunch at 3:30 pm. I didn't get my food till 5 pm!! An hour and a half delivery time! It was supposed to be 45-60 min delivery time, which I find fair in Madison, but 1 1/2 hrs come on!!! So mad! I could have drive there and back in that time a couple times!....at least the wrap I got was good and hopefully the one for tomorrow is fine to, but they need more drivers or something. That wait time was ridiculous! I wish i can give it a zero. I ordered through Yelp eat 24 and the order was completely different. Not only that the guy was continuously to argue that they are right even though i had an email confirmation along with the receipt. Later on he went on the side and was telling his co-worker that he was right and now i want something different. I just walked out. It wasn't worth fighting for $6. VERY BAD SERVICE. Checked this place out because we had some coupons. My boyfriend and I ordered a cripple creek and a buffalo chicken sandwich both on wheat. Both were supposed to be hot. We got home and neither were hot (we live less than 2 miles away.. I expected at very least mildly warm) and both were on white bread. My sandwich also came without bacon like noted. The sandwich was decent but with so many things wrong with our order I doubt we'll go back. |

They were so friendly, willing to talk to us and in a overall great mood! Totally recommend this place! Nice building and good menu variety. We were the first customers of the day. The food was poorly executed. Some of the food was overlooked and come was cold. Something was spoiled. A medium group of friends and family gathered here for a birthday party. We were originally set to sit outside but since it was raining they roped off an area inside for us. Our waiter Kevin was prompt even as he collected more tables towards the end of the night. He is extremely nice and very good at what he does. We ordered a bunch of food and Chris came out to greet us. He was extremely nice and the lobster sliders were out of this world. The decor is trendy but not tacky. Pricing was pleasantly surprising. We expected to cringe at our bill but felt it was completely fair. Parking is a bit of a concern but considering the location (across from Consol) it is to be expected. If you have the opportunity visit this place you will be happy that you did. This place was surprising good. I was staying up at the Marriott and those restaurant was packed.\nI like that they had a gluten free menu. I had the spinach salad with avocado, bacon and chicken. Greens were fresh and dressing was good. \nService was good too. I'd check it out again if I were in the area. This place is a must before a Pens game. It is filled with fans and plenty of pregame talk. It's the perfect location...right across the street from the arena. Be sure to get hear early as it gets packed. The service is solid, especially, considering how insane it gets in here. The place is always full of energy, so be sure to wear your Pens gear and get a grab a bear. They also have a great menu and everything is delicious. It is also a great place to come after the game and grab a few more beers. |

They don't stick to the hours posted and they don't have an answering machine. If no one answers when you call assume they are closed. I stopped by for lunch today and ordered the house chow mein. When it arrived I was surprised how big it was for a lunch portion. It had chicken, veggies, beef, and a couple pieces of shrimp in it. The sauce was kind of bland and salty tasting. Overall the noodles and the experience was a 2 star. Let me just add my voice to one those of you who love Wahsun.\n\nYes, It\'s CASH ONLY... Yes sometimes they are not open... No it is not decorated fancy or romantic... The service can get slow at times. They sometimes run out of ingredients... So how can I give this place 5 stars well, It\'s simply and absolutely the best Chinese food I have ever had!!!\n\nEveryone should have a friend like Rose, she greets me with a smile, by name, and asks how we are doing. If it is busy and we are eating in we get our drinks and wait patiently. It has become obvious that if we wait and watch, Rose will manage her tables so that she never gets overwhelmed, slowing the service to us until it is our turn and then presenting us with great food and together with good timing... Once she was busy so I ran over to Sprouts as they has run out of ice and were slammed, so I bought them a bag of ice to get them through. We have seen on occasion when she is busy that a patron may get disgusted with the delay and walk off. This might make you crazy but the reward for staying is well worth it. \n\nWahsun won awards for their egg rolls and great take out with several "Best of Phoenix Awards" on the wall... The egg rolls are the best we have ever had, large hand & home made with whole shrimp, chicken and so much goodness well there is no comparison. The quantities are large and even the half duck somehow has two legs, I really need to see where they get four legged ducks. Duck can be dry, or bland to the taste so how by what magic the duck can have such perfect flavor is a mystery. The Shrimp in Lobster Sauce is exceptional, as is the House Special Chow Mein. \n\nThe Chow Mein is served in large glass pie dish heaped with Noodles that have a nutty flavor, Beef, Chicken, and Shrimp abound in a sauce that is complete with Bok Choy, Cabbage and Celery. All I can say is this is one fabulous dish and until I had it here, I was not a fan.\n\nOk for the reviewers that say they put chicken in the shrimp with lobster sauce, it is true. As they seem to add chicken to most everything that comes with vegetables, just tell Rose I am sure she can accommodate you. For me it is simply amazing that the basic meals come with Egg Drop Soup, Crab Puffs, Rice (if the dish is not based on Noodles) and a serving that would generally consist of about 4 portions in any other restaurant I have been to.\n\nSo to sum it up, Wahsun is all about the food. I love it when I can spend my money supporting local business. This is one business that I think of as family. This is one of Phoenix's most prized hidden gems. I have eaten chinese food in San Francisco's Chinatown and Boston's China Town. I have actually had better chinese food here. The place is no frills, but if you want a real value, and you like fresh, tasty chinese food for a great price, then come give Wahsun a try. Rose is the best! |

Being that this was our first time in, she went over the menu and highlighted some popular items as well as her personal favorites. \n\nWe ordered the calamari as an appetizer which was amazing. In my opinion some of the best I have had. Not overly greasy or chewy with great flavor. \n\nI ordered the margherita pizza. The pizzas here are about 11 inches, personal serving size. Again, I was impressed. The pizza was not overly greasy, seasoned well. The crust was light and crispy. The pizza was similar to what you would get at Grimaldi's. \n\nThe pricing was quite reasonable. \n\nAs mentioned, the server was awesome. She was super attentive and friendly. Our drinks never ran dry, she checked on us often. \n\nI only regret that I didn't save room for dessert. There is always next time. \n\nI highly recommend you check this place out for yourself. This place is amazing, they have fantastic service, great food and they have a great selection of wine. If anyone has a bad experience here is only because they already came in with a crappy attitude. I could not be more happy with this place. Btw try the tiramisu, it is the perfect dessert to accompany the meal. So this was weird..... took a Lyft from the Airport to eat here since it looked amaze (20 minute ride), walked up with my small carry on roller bag and the security guy out front rudely instructed that luggage was not allowed in. I asked to see if we can check our bag somewhere and he rudely said "not allowed" . You may want to note that somewhere dudes, most people in Vegas are traveling FYI. Would have loved to try you, but on to the next place Mmmmmmmm!!! I had a meatball panini sandwich that was bigger than my head! The French fries were cooked and seasoned to absolute perfection! \nI can't wait to come back and try the pizza next time, because it looked amazing. \nThe wine list was phenomenal, and you can even buy bottles to take home in a convenient carrying case! \nThe restaurant was easy to get to, because I valeted behind the casino, walked straight, and it was on the right side. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! The valet is free, and I didn't get lost wandering through a smokey casino, which I feel like always happens to me when I want to eat on the strip. I was bummed but not surprised to hear this spot had closed. Despite tasty food and warm, friendly service in a gorgeous build-out space, all of Contento's standout qualities couldn't make up for the poor location inside Jerry's Nugget casino.\n\nI visited a couple of times and tried a good portion of the menu- pizzas and all things carby were their specialties. They had an in-house baker and the quality of all things baked was stellar! Pastas and entrees were unfortunately hit or miss for both dine-in and takeout orders, but you could easily make a meal of various apps. Wine list had limited Italian options and mostly sold by the bottle, which limited what I was interested in pairing with my meals.\n\nI am hopeful that the talented kitchen crew and friendly service staff can find a new home in a better location, their food is definitely going to be missed by those who live in the area. |

I ordered the 5oz. Country Fried Steak (CFS) and was supremely disappointed. I understand that with a dish such this you want to put a twist on it. Now, I can't say that what I will describe is accurate as far as technique is concerned but I'll paint a clear picture. \n\nFirst, the hash brown were ok. They are definitely made from fresh, not frozen potatoes. The eggs were done perfectly- I order soft scrambled. The toast was almost dry, which is not bad if you like it that way, but I don't, and my server never came back to ask if I needed anything such as butter. \n\nThe CFS arrived extremely dark fried as if it had been double fried- once to cook it, and a second time much later to make it warm for me. The crust was brown and maybe black and tasted of burned fried food. The steak was not tender, had not been pounded, and was very dry, and cooked beyond well done. The battered steak tasted of old oil and left an aftertaste that I washed down with powered iced tea- another WTF. Really? Powdered iced tea?\n\nRecommendation: don't order the CFS. Everything they cook here is a little different from what the norm is. So, expect something- whatever that is. \n\nPLUS SIDE: The Pine Cone has a small pie and pastry case with delicious goodies. I bought the pecan roll. great! This place doesn't look like much, but the food is solid home cookin' and the service is super friendly. The baked goods are very good - and you can buy extra to take with you! Pretty good dinner with a nice selection of food. Open 24 hours and provide nice service. I usually go here after a night of partying. My favorite dish is the Fried Chicken Eggs Benedict. If you like lot lizards, you'll love the Pine Cone! Attention fans of David Lynch. Do stop by this place. The atmosphere, staff and patrons will certainly help to make your visit enjoyable.\nLast time I was here I ordered the caramel nut covered cinnamon roll. The waitress asked if I wanted it warmed with some butter. I thought that sounded even better and said to go ahead and do that. She nodded agreement. Then when she brought it to me it was unheated and no butter. Odd but also kind of humorous. I always enjoy being in a David Lynch film from time to time.\nThe service and food is way better than the country restaurant just a mile south on 51. Be sure to go here instead. Their booths are made for skinny people from the 50s. take a table. start a conversations with the truck driver to your left. \nWe used to go to the Pine Cone when it was across the street. Must be hard times for these guys because the interior appears to be older than what they had when they were on the other side of the street. That place now sits empty. Why is this area depressed? Don't ask me, I don't know. Do I look like I have all the answers?\nThe food here is good and the prices are cheap. Go here for a nice meal and a flash back to the past and don't forget to take home some bakery. Or if you aren't hungry just stop by for some great baked goods. Well worth the stop.\nThis place gets four stars because of their five star bakery selection. Crazy big cinnamon rolls and good prices.\n\nPS The pecan cinnamon rolls are the best. The frosted cinnamon rolls are too much frosting in my opinion and too doughy. The apple fritters are quite good.\n\nTip. The entire place is made for skinny people. If you are heavy set you will not fit in the booths. Take a seat at the counter. I am a rather big guy and it took me over an hour to squeeze myself out of the bathroom. (just kidding) But it is tiny all around. A reflection of times past. |

It all started when 2 non-yelpers (the nerve!) and I were a touch under the weather (re: hungover) and driving around aimlessly looking for a place to have a boozy brunch up in North Phoenix. It was literally by the grace of God that we were brought to Gino's. According to my GPS, we had arrived at Ollie's Omlette House. After our retarded asses drove around an empty complex for god knows how long, we finally all agreed upon the fact that Ollie's Omlette house was no more and Gino's had taken it's place. No longer willing to drive another foot, we decided to walk in to Gino's and give it a shot.\n\nHow freakin pumped were we that we did?!? I'm actually going against my better judgment even telling you about the goldmine that is Gino's, because at first I was tempted to keep this treasure trove all to my greedy little self. However, in the spirit of Yelp, I've decided to share.\n\nUpon first glance of Gino's, it looks like a little beat up diner with a bunch of New York paraphernalia scattered all over the walls in the most depressingly dead shopping complex I have ever seen. I'm talking closed store after closed store after closed store. Thankfully, the depressing exterior dissipates the second you walk in. The entire staff is laughing, joking around, coming over to the tables and sharing their war stories from the night before, friendly as all hell and straight up hilarity.\n\nThe prices were retarded cheap. My entire breakfast, which consisted of eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast was $3.99. Three freakin dollars and 99 cents!! Cheaper than Denny's/IHOP and other look alikes...oh, and I could order a big fat cocktail with it. Not beer, not wine, liquor baby. WIN!!!\n\nUpon further examination, I saw that they had insane specials like my breakfast going on every single day/night of the week. Like Thursday night Ladies Night which consists of $1 you call-its for the ladies. Be honest, how long has it been since you've heard of a bar doing dollar you call-its?? A long ass time, that's for sure. But that's not where it ends. I want to say Monday night was some crazy thing like $3.99 all you can eat pasta and Wednesday nights were $7.99 half rack of ribs night or something ludicrous like that.\n\nThe best part of this all, even better than the rock bottom food and drink prices, was that the food was actually pretty darn tasty and the drinks were poured STRONG! The owner Gino came over and hung out and shot the shit with us for a while during our brunch, telling us about a couple parties he's hosted there, including NYE where he provided transportation to and from the bar for every single patron, regardless of where they live and completely free of charge. How's that for some old-fashioned hospitality? \n\nI am calling it now. This is my new Cheers. This bar/restaurant embodies everything I feel like most places I frequent lack. Good people, good food, good drinks all at a price I can actually afford?? I always thought places like this were just rumor and too good to be true, but Gino's, you've made a believer out of me. After having several bad establishments at this location I was very hesitant to give Gino's a try. Luckily my curiosity got the better of me and I finally took a chance... and my husband and I have been regulars there ever since. \n\nThis is not your boring chain establishment. Gino's is a fun and friendly neighborhood eatery and bar. They have poker most nights and dart tournaments, trivia contests, ladies nights with champagne and massages on other nights. Even during their 'quiet times' the staff is fun and friendly and always makes our visit a pleasure.... and then there's the food. I've been going there for a few months now and have made it a point to try different things. I've only been disappointed in two items and one of those was just a personal preference. (The french bread pizza didn't have enough sauce and wasn't cooked enough even after being sent back. The meat loaf is not what I am used to with its brown gravy. I'm a ketchup meat loaf kinda gal so it wasn't what I expected... but it wasn't too bad.) The portions are always more than enough and the prices are always much less than you'd expect.\n\nThere are two reasons that I didn't give them a 5 star rating... they rarely have all of the desserts listed on the menu (and there aren't that many) and they have a NO FIREARMS sign out front. \n\nAll in all, Gino's is doing one heck of a great job! I really, really, REALLY wanted to like this place. It\'s very close to home, the prices are good and it is not a chain. I wanted to like it so much I went three times over a three week period, hoping each and every time it would improve the next time. \n\nIt didn\'t.\n\nTonight (visit #3) was the end. I won\'t be returning.\n\nThe service, all three times has been poor. The servers seem bored, disinterested and when you ask them for something you feel like you are bothering them.\n\nThe food is so-so. Tonight my husband ordered a burger "medium rare" and it was quite well done - charred, in fact. Unfortunately no one ever checked up to see how our food was, if we needed anything, etc. Our drinks were never refilled and it took so long to get the check we actually discussed walking out (just to see if anyone would notice). We didn\'t, but we probably should have.\n\nDon\'t waste your time or money at Gino\'s. The food is mediocre to poor and the service is downright bad. All three times I have been there the restaurant has been pretty warm, too. Granted, it is August in Phoenix, but I expect to walk into a restaurant and feel comfortable and cool. At Gino\'s I felt warm and sweaty, with ceiling fans blowing the napkins all over the place.\n\nI have to agree with another reviewer, the glowing reviews are clearly fake. Gino\'s stinks. Blue Collar\nFriendly\nGreat Cocktails !\nDelivery !! Heck YES !!!\n\nMenagerie...Ecclectic..HodgePodge....\n\nMenu is extremely ( maybe too) diverse. \n\nGreasy but Yum if thats what you are looking for.\n\nThumbs Up on the Lasagna..Josh my partner in crime likes it alot.\nSalads are good. Nice Ranch dressing\n\nKeep it cleaner and I will keep coming back :) A small neighborhood Italian resurant and bar. I fully enjoyed their bloody mary mix, they make the mix in house and it's excellent. The hash browns are good and crispy, and they offer a breakfast buffet if you want to try a bit of everything. Their version of the chicken parm sandwich is pretty good, I could order that agian any day. The burgers are big and messy, but they still over cook the meat no matter how you ask for it done. The staff is very friendly and good at entertaining children. |

Had spicy pasta and wife had linguini and clams. We were pleased w food and service. This has authentic Italian cuisine. I recommend this restaurant to customers if they want a great meal. The hostess Joanne always greets us with a friendly and welcoming attitude. Thanks for the great food and wonderful service! I'm not from the area and everything seems to close somewhat early around here. Veneto Trattoria was one of the few places open until 10:00pm with 4 stars so it wasn't a hard choice. \n\nThankfully this place ended up being very memorable for the food and the service. \n\nI never order seafood soups but the way the server described this special appetizer, it sounded great so I got it and it was AMAZING! It had one clam, one mussel, one scallop (good size), one piece of halibut, and one piece of salmon (it also came with one piece of shrimp but I eliminated it because I am allergic) and it was in a light red broth. It may have been the best soup I've ever had.\n\nFor the entree I got the lasagna, my special lady got whole wheat pasta with mozzarella and tomato in an amazing tomato sauce called a 'Capris Pasta' or something similar. My son got a basic spaghetti that turned out to be not so basic because the sauce was simply incredible. \n\nWe went in not expecting much at all, 8:45pm, somewhat last minute with little planning and this turned out to be one of the best meals on our trip. \n\nBeyond that, the service was perfect. The staff were absolute professionals in every sense of the word. \n\nI highly recommend Veneto Trattoria. My first try to Veneto, and I'm in love with it :) Nice atmosphere, delicious food, and very nice staff. So here's a bit recap:\n\nAntipasto: Carpaccio Affumicato (Thinly sliced cured smoked beef with shaved parmesan cheese, arugula and drizzled with balsamic, topped with a ginger-cucumber pesto) -- liked everything of this dish but not so much of the ginger pesto, the ginger taste was a bit too strong to me...\n\nEntree: Orecchiette Salsiccia e Broccolini (Pugliese pasta saut\xc3\xa9ed with sausages and rapini, in extra virgin olive oil, garlic and red pepperoncino, slightly spicy) -- This dish was presented nicely, colorful and very flavorful!\nGnocchi di Patate alla Bolognese (Homemade potato dumpling served with homemade meat sauce) -- Loved the tasty meat sauce, and the potato dumpling was definitely one of a kind.\n\nDessert: Chocolate Souffle with Vanilla Ice Cream -- rich chocolate cake paired with the delish vanilla ice cream, yummmmm, what a sweet ending. I'm shamefully guilty of not yelping Veneto sooner, for I've been frequently over the years and they are always consistently excellent. Handmade, mouth-watering pastas. Service is always simple and superb in a quaint atmosphere. My absolute first choice for Italian in the area. I really can't pick just one favorite dish, but a few stars are gnocchi with busty Bolognese, the orecchiette with spicy broccoli rapini & sausage, and the tagliatelle with luscious speck in a light cream sauce. |

Not cheap, but the quality of the sushi is far beyond the stuff you get in most sushi restaurants. Real Japanese Sushi. High quality fish.\n\nThe chef and his staff are all really cool and friendly.\n\nHighly recommended. I ordered the vegetable udon meal - are with a bowl of salad and spicy tuna maki (6 small pieces). I also shared a plate of spicy salmon pizza with my friend. Price - $18 tip and tax in. Pizza was tasty but a little expensive. Salad and maki were generic in flavour and appearance. Udon was less than desirable and contained very little vegetables. \n\nOverall - only 3 stars compared to restaurants in this location (Yonge and Lawrence). I obviously didn\'t enjoy this place as much as everyone else. I think three stars may even be a stretch - just another average Japanese restaurant in my opinion.\n\nI had a Sushi combo special for 24.99. The salad and Miso soup starters were standard. The Chicken skewers (3) were just terrible - all fat and grizzle, yuck. The best way to describe the sushi is "OK". I was not a big fan of the sushi rice, way to much rice vinegar. The fish was fresh but the final result falls well short of Toronto\'s best. My combo at $24.99 was not worth it at all.\n\nI must admit the service was definitely above average. Our server was fast, efficient and very polite.\n\nI also liked the Japanese style decor, very comfortable and the restaurant is large enough that it doesn\'t feel overly crowded.\n\nI can get far better sushi elsewhere in the city (and I suggest you do as well). Really disappointed given all stellar the reviews.\n\nBK When I drove by The Sushi Bar http://www.yelp.ca/biz/the-sushi-bar-toronto?hrid=Smn0s558wjG12xSw7qNoTw#src:self one evening and saw a huge For Lease sign up, I just don\'t believe my eyes! How can my favourite Japanese place be out of business.. Then I happily realized they moved to a new location, just 3 doors down... And of course I need to come here for a visit!\n\nThis review might be a little bias as I never even ever look at the menu whenever I eat at The Sushi Bar. Just show up and sit at the sushi counter and just eat whatever served to me. \n\nAnd now I can even drink my sake here?! I just love this new location, so spacious and nicely decorated. \n\nThere are quite a few sakes offers here and some even not on the menu. \n\nChef looked at me looking at the Sake menu, he said Hot or Cold? I said Cold and the pretty waitress just shown up mysteriously with 3 sakes for me to try... Just like magic! \n\nWakatake Onikoroshi Junmai Daiginjo "Demon Slayer"\nTaiheizan Junmai Ginjo"Chogetsu"\nDenshin Yuki Junmai Ginjo\n\nAnd the winner today is Taiheizan Junmai Ginjo"Chogetsu"\n\nFood then mysteriously served to me and I ended up eating non stop for 1.5 hour until he finally asked if I am full.... any dessert.. How I love this man..\n\nI definitely will be back again and again... My new drinking hole...\n\nFood served omakase style is all seasonal so I always come here to eat with an open mind and empty stomach! Just Feed me! It's been a while since last time but my God I've missed this place. Freshiest and most flavourful sushi, sashimi, sushi pizza and amazing sake! Staff are very friendly and fun, the chef Jimmy is probably the best sushi chef in the city! |

I have a family member employed by Hillstone Restaurant Group, so I get to eat at Houston's fairly often (several times per year). We are very pleased with the food and service every time we go to Houston's, both the Phoenix and Scottsdale locations. \n\nThe spinach dip appetizer is tasty. The accompanying sour cream and salsa are good mix-ins for the dip. \n\nHouston's serves meat from Allen Brothers and it has to be the best steak I have had. I definitely tasted a difference in their filet after they switched to Allen Brothers. The filet went from a 4.5 stars to 5 stars! Always cooked perfectly, very tender and great flavor. I'm never sorry that I get it every time! Traditional salad is always a good add-on... great combo of big chunks of juicy ripe tomato, bacon crumbles, crisp lettuce with delicious cheese toast on the side. Sides vary - I usually get one of the multiple variations of the seasonal vegetables. Roasted winter vegetables, roasted corn and the brussels sprouts are particularly good. \n\nNow I can't leave Houston's without at least a few bites of the hot fudge sundae. The hot fudge is thick and delicious. No sundae anywhere can compare. In the fall, the Harvest cheesecake (made with butternut squash) is a must have. \n\nService is always top notch. Wait staff are very knowledgeable, attentive without being overly present. Service is excellent, the ribs are amazing, and I highly recommend their Moscow mules. I would call in and make a reservation. Also, their desserts are phenomenal. I would also recommend the Thai noodle steak salad. Fantastic experience overall. The phone operator made every effort/excuse to avoid making a reservation for my party. \nThis place was highly recommended but unfortunately the phone operator made it clear that the service at Hillstone sucks! All things seem SWEET!\n\nWe love this place. We go 3-4 times per month mostly on Fridays for happy hour with full food served as well. Prefer to sit in bar booth. We get better service there. No frosty martini refresher in bar though.\n\nSushi Press is favorite. When they are "out" we are sad.\n\nThe thing is, after eating there so often, we notice almost everything is SWEET. We love Hawiian Ribeye (sweet), all the salads, except perhaps blue cheese wedge (can\'t seem to get a dressing that is not sweet), ribs (sweet), sauces seem sweet in all ways. Like the bread basket and straight up martinis. They are not sweet:)\n\nLove the ambiance!\n\nWe\'ve taken our little boy with no problems ever.\n\nWill keep going back! Hillstone is a super nice, beautiful place. Great atmosphere. The food is very good, I wouldn't say spectacular, but it was good. I had the French Dip Au Jus. The meat was very pink, looked raw. I didn't really like that. My bf got the prime rib, it was soo yummy. Came right off the bone. All together our meal was about $80. We only got one appetizer too. It's kinda too pricy for the mediocre food. |

And we LOVE Redendo's. My opinion is that this is the best pizza/pasta in FH area, and even beyond. Their crust is consistently excellent, but what I love most is that they use quality ingredients in their toppings and creating their other cuisine. (I am ex-foodservice distribution, so I know quality when I see it). I also like the NYC 1940's ambiance which the owners have re-created here. You don't see that too often anymore.\n\nIt's small in size, but not cramped; and consistently well-staffed. I highly recommend Redendo's to all who appreciate great NY-style pizza, and a 1940's Americana ambiance if dining in. They have a N. Scottsdale location as well. Such a good place! The food was absolutely delicious! The service was wonderful! The staff is so friendly. The atmosphere is great. It is such a cute, quaint little place. Pricing was reasonable, and actual quite affordable for the quality food received! Will come back and refer to friends! Thanks so much! Quaint, fun, and delicious. Good ingredients, clean and groovy atmosphere. Crust is on the thin and "chewy" side, and does not disappoint. Highly recommend. I can't remember the name of the spinach pizza but it was wonderful. Great food and a great person in the community Servi e was great and Pizza was delicious. The kids loved the garlic knots n marinara. My family will definitely be back to try more. |
