In relationships, sometimes the call of duty includes trying new things, such as ethnic foods. Although some might not consider Hawaiian foods as being \""ethnic\"" this picky eater certainly does. \n\nWith all foreign foods my only requirement is to have what I like to call, \""distinguishable meats\"". This means, if I ask if the chicken is all white meat and they say \""yes\"", I expect as well as look forward to distinguishable white meat chicken. \n\nPerhaps in foreign lands, and on deserted islands \""white meat\"" could potentially have various meanings? I'm not sure, just trying to wrap my brain around what part of the animal I had my lips wrapped around this afternoon..much to my disappointment, it was NOT white meat chicken served in their teriyake chicken dish. \n\nMost folks that have an eclectic pallet aren't particular when it comes to the shades and textures of their chicken (or even meat in general), but I'm huge on knowing or having an educated guess as to what I'm eating. \n\nMy better half enjoyed the food so that made me happy to hear, but as for myself, a return trip will most likely not be in the cards. \n\nHow disappointing, two less than par meals in a row.. \n\nSuggestion: Aloha Kitchen personnel, lets work on learning the menu and adjusting to what the \""main land\"" considers white meat chicken.

We all know the saying \""What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.\"" Well, I offer another one, \""Keep the wife happy when in Vegas or your vacation is going to be a battle that will come home with you.\"" Not sure when I learned that, but I'm sure glad I did. So, when my wife said she wants to go to the Mirage Hotel to BB Kings Blues Club, I said, \""Sure, let's go tonight.\"" Whew... a bullet dodged and I probably didn't even know it at the time.\n\nSee, Oliva loves Jazz and hates Gambling. I like Gambling and love Music. So, before I can gamble (and she gets uber-bored/pissed), I need to make sure she's knocked a few \""to do\"" items off her list. Does it make me a bad husband? I don't know, but it sure made for a smoother trip because she loved BB King's Blues Club. We came about 5 minutes before a live set started, paid the cover fee $5/person, told the hostess we were there for the music, and got seated dead center in the front row. Nice.\n\nWe ordered a couple draft beers and some Sweet Potato Tots with Caramel Sauce (meh) to snack on while Jazz heated up the place. The first part of the set was magical with some great improvisations and jazz joints. The crowd was into it, but not really hitting the dance floor. About half-way through the set, a new lead singer came out and the mood/tone of the music became love songs. The dance floor did eventually fill up, but the jazz vibe was muted. I definitely loved the first part of the set more than the second. \n\nOverall, Olivia gave BB King's 5-star gold. For me, it was a-ok 3 stars, but a happy wife makes for a happy life, so I'm officially a 4-star fan of BB King's Blues Club.

Wow!! Excellent service and equally delicious food. The spiced cider was refreshing and perfect for the holidays. The shrimp & grits seemed small for the price but was packed with flavor. It had a bit of orange peel flavor that complemented the savory sauce and andouille sausage. The two shrimp were perfectly cooked and shelled all the way to the tail. My husband loved his perfectly cooked pub burger. He was overjoyed with the poutine fries. The best. Our server Arnold took care of us. This is our new favorite place. We'll be back every time we're in Vegas.

First time at this new Stadium. I have been looking forward to it since they announced it. Watching it be built helped with the anticipation and it surely didn't disappoint.\n\nIt is a great Stadium, lots of room, very Fan Friendly.\n\nConcessions were actually cheaper than at other Spring Training Stadiums, I was pleasantly surprised by that. They also have a great variety of concessions throughout the stadium.\n\nBullpens are right there so fans can watch pitchers warming up. Players are available before & after games to sign autographs & talk with Fans.\n\nTwo down sides I experienced was the lack of enthusiasm & consistency from the Stadium announcer. They need to work on that. Seemed like he forgot he was there to work the crowd. Also the traffic into the stadium was not good. I'm sure it's because it's new and they need to figure out the traffic patterns, but almost every car coming in stopped to ask questions which held up getting in. The traffic out was easy and flowed very well.\n\nLook forward to going back to many games and other events as this great facility..

Wow Mimi's ...\n\nYou sadden me , even with it being Sunday you could have done better,\nMy suggestions if you want to inspire and draw in new clientele:\n\n\n1)Get rid of the Helga manager/ hostess, she looked like she was miserable, she seemed to be pissed all these customers were around \n\n2) Be prepared for the Sunday Crowd , when I see a empty unbused table right in front and you tell me it's going to be awhile , after already messing up my groups table assignment ,I would have left if my family wasn't with me\n\n3) Try a little seasoning in your food, it's this miracle substance that gives flavor to food \n\n4) Have food ready fast ...it's Sunday we waited for our table , we waited for server to take our order ...now we wait 25 minutes more for our food?\n\nMimi's Arrowhead be careful or you will find even Sun City won't be coming in soon .

I was definitely expressed with their buffet! I had been craving Indian food for quite a while, but since it can be a bit expensive having to order all the dishes separately I was determined to find a place with a lunch buffet nearby to give it a try. I was lucky enough to find this place, which I noticed had fairly good reviews on Yelp. This place is definitely nicer and bigger compared to other Indian buffets I'd been to. It has a wide seating area and nicely arranged tables. The buffet had a great selection and I was able to try new dishes that I'd never tried before. Everything was delicious. Tandoori chicken was dry, but then again I've yet to experience it moist and juicy at a buffet. The garlic Naan bread was soft and warm, SO good! Service was excellent! Server was attentive and polite - my glass of water was never empty. Will definitely be coming back!

We really, really enjoyed our lunch here. It was our first visit to Pittsburgh and our first meal in the area. I've never actually had a Perogie but the Perogie Pizza was very good (and filling) with mashed potatoes, onions and cheddar. When ordering something like that you just need to have a lot of trust in the restaurant and an open mind, and they really came through. The pizza crust was excellent and I would be very interested to go back and taste a more \""normal\"" pizza from there. \n\nThe beers were also excellent. We had the sour wheat beer and the brown ale. If I could return I'd probably try the sampler, which looked very robust.

Today's trip to Thai Basil made me realize that I was cursed, and now thanks to this place, the curse has been lifted. \n\nI don't know how or why, but somewhere along the road of life, a curse got put on me - no matter how spicy I asked for my Chinese food to be, it would always end up MILD. \nI mean, I would say it 3 or 4 times to the person taking my order on the phone. Then i figured maybe if I spoke to the person face to face so they can see the sincerity in my eyes - the very soul of me - that maybe they would make my dish spicy. But no, they didn't. I've done everything short of putting a gun to the person behind the counter's head. \n\nI had just accepted the fact that I would never enjoy spicy Asian cuisine; that I would always have to go home add my own stuff to it. Well no more. Thai Basil has consistently asked me \""How spicy do you want it?\"" \nNot only that, but they proved that this is not just a rhetorical question. I've given them a specific level, and they do it. They. Do. It. \n\nSo the last dish I had was the Spicy Noodles with beef. It was great. The sauce was unique and tasty...not just a generic batch sauce. Of course there is always better to be had, but for a lunch special dish, this was quite satisfying. \n\nI just wanted to updated this review because of Thai Basil's consistency. I've never gotten a 'bad' dish from here...maybe one disappointing dish (smaller portion than I thought it should have been). \n\n4 star stat maintained.

OK. Here's what you have to do. Order the pretzel app with the queso cheese. Make sure you save a little of the cheese. Then order the Carnitas Libre pizza and dip the pizza crust IN the leftover queso. Or, if you want to get really crazy, drizzle the queso on the pizza. THE. BEST. Oh, and get some really great beers with kickass service at the bar. 'Nuff said.

We decided to try Rustler's Rooste for Easter brunch. Its was a great brunch for the price. They had an omelet station, waffels a craveing station an all the other good stuff. The only thing I wish they had more of was sea food. My daughter loved the chocolate fountain! The service was attentive and very friendly. We had a good time and of course ate too much.

It's like a mini willy wonka or sweet factory, higher class though! The strawberry cheesecake gelato was amazing!

I feel horrible for leaving a bad review. Anyway I walk into the salon, and (clue #1) no customers.\n\n I went in for a mani, which was $12 bucks - good deal. I asked her to trim my nails, but not to short. She ignored that - my nails are so short I can't even scratch. She didn't allow my cuticles to soak long enough and/or cut to far which resulted in TWO bloody fingernails (will post picture). I am sure she got a piece of skin on a third finger, because it has been aching for the past 3 hours.\n\nBeware!

I am so glad I found this place! By far...this is the best dim sum place I have found. The place has tight seatings, but I don't care...I'm about the food! I love Love LOVE dim sum!!! I need to come back here soon...

A really lovely green space in the middle of the city! \n\nSit and have a coffee at the cafe pavilion while pondering the Melville Monument...and Henry Dundas, Viscount Melville (on the top!) may well be pondering right back!\n\nLaze on the grass and while away the hours reading a good book, planning your visit to Edinburgh or people watching!\n\nRelax by the lovely reflection pool and have a well earned break from the office whilst enjoying your lunch!\n\nCatch your breath after a morning shopping on Multrees walk (and gazing lovingly at everything in Harvey Nichols!)\n\nEnjoy the variety of events the Square has to offer throughout the year...from concerts to photography exhibitions, storytelling to open-air cinema screenings!\n\nWill maybe see you there the next time I'm wandering through!

Why is Earl's so good? The bun. The combinations. The price. That they are open late. My favs are the Original, the Italian, and the Cannonball. The line can be long, especially after the clubs let out, but the wait isn't too bad. I just don't know how else to describe how delicious these hot sandwiches are! You must try!

Stylist Kim Johnson provided me with a long term keratin straightening treatment back in January. He couldn't have been more gentle with my hair - I never felt the heat from his dryer or hot iron. Now here it is the end of May & he contacts me to have me come it to see how the process is holding up. I expected to hear that it was time for a \""touch up\"" but to my surprise he told me I looked great & wouldn't require any further services to my hair for at least a few more months. BTW, Blush Salon is in a beautiful environment & I don't have to drive across town to get into a spa like salon.

Perhaps I can't write a completely accurate review because I was sharing a hot dog and hamburger with a lame person who only wanted grilled onions on the dog and sauteed mushrooms on the burger (seriously?? no effing beef chili, no cheese, no nothing!? jesus). But just based off the actual hot dog and hamburger, they weren't great. The hot dog wasn't the juicy, thick tube of meat I was anticipating. Instead, it was a thin, dry, floppy thing that looked like one of those balloons you tie into animals. \n\nThe hamburger wasn't much better - pretty overcooked. The fries, however, were decent - crispy, fresh and hot. I didn't get the onion rings, but they looked like they could have been pretty good too.

Two facts:\nCulvers trumps In N Out.\nWhoever compared Culvers to Dairy Queen is bonkers. they don't even compare\n\nI have been hearing this dumb commercial about 'being culverized' on KTAR and all I could think was how dumb it was that we were getting commercials for places we don't even have.\n\nha, i was dumb. we do have a culvers!!! and i am now in love.\n\nreasons why it's better than In N Out:\n-while I love In N Outs meat patties, their cheese selection sucks. at culvers you pick your cheese- american, cheddar or swiss (i hate american cheese which is the only cheese offered at In N Out)\n- They have red onion, i love both onions but red is way better\n-I like their hamburger patties just a bit more than In N Outs(both are good)\n- Culvers shakes and custard are totallllllyyyyyy better than any milkshake In N Out could ever make.\n- I love all the options of burgers you can get at culvers! including bacon and if you dont want a burger their chicken strips look pretty awesome\n\n\n i am so excited i heard those dumb commercials and looked them up!!!!!!\n\ni will say that In N Outs fries are way better than culvers. but that's it.

Just opened and used a 50 percent off coupon from the mail. Very good salads, soup and sandwiches. Similar to Paradise caf\u00e9 except now that Paradise is owned by Panera bread the quality and variety is going down hill in my opinion. Zupas gives you a chocolate dipped strawberry with your meal. I will go back to try other menu items soon.

I've eaten here often with our family, we like it a lot for authentic Mexican. What they do, they do well. The guacamole, enchilada verde, beef and chicken tacos, and mole are all dishes I have sampled frequently. The hibiscus drink they serve is also great, as are the Mexican sodas. Another poster has mentioned it as pricey but they must have been a special event or something because we find the prices reasonable. Portions are not overly huge (this not American style tex mex) but more in the vein of enough. I have never left hungry.\n\nI will say that because they are mostly just two who work there doing the serving and cooking the service can be a little slow. And it seems as if it is either empty or packed, and there are not that many tables, so it can be hard to get a place sometimes.\n\nAlso, we go often with our kids, and the staff are always happy to accommodate by leaving out onions, etc. Every dish is made to order (hence the slowness) which allows them to do this easily. Very friendly.\n\nGo! Enjoy!

I really wanted to love this place but unfortunately my check-in experience left me very disappointed and pretty much skewed my whole impression of the place towards the negative side. Mercedes helped us and was pretty unfriendly, unprofessional and incompetent. My family and I were here for a wedding and had reserved two rooms with two queen beds which I had specified needed to be next to each other. These reservations were pre-paid and supposed to be guaranteed but it turned out that they \""ran out of double rooms\"" which was a big disappointment and very inconvenient but would've been easier to accept had Mercedes been more apologetic - she proceeded to try and say that I did not in fact reserve a double (said with attitude), so I had to show her my printed out reservation which clearly said \""two double queens\"" and then when she realized she was in the wrong, gave a bit more of the attitude! On top of that, she could not put our rooms nearby- in fact they were 20 rooms apart!!Unbelievable!! Totally inconvenient since I was traveling with two young children and two elderly grandparents. To make a long story short, the front desk is really where the first impression is made. When you have incompetent, unprofessional people working there, it just makes the whole establishment look really bad! The service throughout the rest of the resort was hit or miss and always slow: you either got someone really helpful (the bellboy) or a complete idiot (waitress at the pool), there's no consistency or high standard for great service here. The room itself was nice and spacious, however not ideal when traveling with kids: no locks on bathroom door, mini bar and snack bar that's very easily accessible to kids (you get charged for just picking something up) and no kids' channels on TV. The casino wasn't very impressive- no one was really hitting anything, there's not a great variety of machines, and good luck trying to get a drink! I could go on and on about all of my disappointments but lets just say that I will not be going back here. I'm giving two stars for the few individuals that actually were trying to do their job well.

On business in Tempe for 5 weeks and I've been her 6 or 7 times. The tacos are a buck fifty a pop and they are all delicious. I loved the barbocoa and the cabeza tacos. The Birria was amazing. Braised forever and so tender with just the right amount of spice. Try their sister restaurant on the other side of the market for the freshest seafood you will find in the desert!

This is a really nice, interesting place with great food. There is frequently a wait but they get you in as fast as can reasonably be expected and there's FREE COFFEE while you wait. . that's right... free.... coffee... what's not to love about that. The inside is a little loud for my taste but the food and the service are to notch. Mom had a veggie omelet that was delicious and I had some eggs benedict that were also delicious. (apparently the eggs benedict is a thing with them they had several different kinds). So yeah, be prepared to wait . . . have some coffee and enjoy yourself.

Best place for business wear, for work, job interviews, etc. And Levis are always on sale. Make up counter for the girls, casual wear for the guys. Win win. I hope they stick around..

Vegas Yelpers, you all have way too low standards! I can't trust your recommendations here!\n\nI went here with my husband and some of his coworkers and it was definitely below mediocre across the board.\n\nFood:\nWith great food, I can overlook just about all other aspects of a dining experience. Unfortunately, Off The Strip did not have great food (or even good for that matter). The ingredients and preparations were all things I could make at home. Nothing was very innovative, although many dishes were overly complex with the addition of a ton of ingredients. I think an effective dish embraces simplicity and transforms minimal ingredients rather than adds a truckload. In addition, a pet peeve of mine is when restaurants don't disclose on the menu or by the waiter what will show up on my plate and this place was a major offender of that. (I don't need the secret recipe; I'm just looking for an idea of major flavors and ingredients!)\nFor example, the Caesar salad dressing was so strongly flavored of raw garlic (not even roasted to get the flavor without the \""whoo\""-factor) that I couldn't eat more than two bites! I LOVE garlic. I eat it raw in slices as I cook; I roast it and have it with a meal; I am obsessed with The Stinking Rose in San Francisco, a restaurant dedicated to the obscene use of garlic; but tons and tons of raw garlic in a Caesar dressing is really just offensive. And to boot, the menu made no mention at all of a garlicy Caesar.\nAnother example of overly complex food without prior warning on the menu was the mashed potatoes. They had crispy pieces of burned cheese surrounding the serving, which I'm not a huge fan of but I know some people like it. But they also had something else in them that I still can't place. It was more of a scent than a flavor, and honestly it smelled like just a hint of artificial vanilla extract, or some sort of pastry like scent. After I pointed it out other people detected it too. I'm still trying to figure it out. Mascarpone? Someone dropped some cheesecake in the mashed potato pan? Some overly ambitious chef attempting vanilla mashed potatoes? Sounds bizarre ...because it was. (And it was another part of my meal I only had a couple bites of.)\nThe \""fresh baked bread\"" was one of those half cooked loaves from the grocery store that you stick in the oven. Fresh... Half baked? Except it was a little stale like it sat under a warmer or something, so maybe just half baked.\nThe crabcakes used really really really low grade crab meat, with not a hint of lump, and possibly a hint of fish. It could just be because I'm from New England but I don't find crabcakes without lump meat even worth eating.\nThe \""pesto\"" garlic bread contained not even a hint of pesto, just more overwhelming garlic.\nOh, and their \""famous\"" cheesecake was nothing to write home about.\n\nAtmosphere:\nThey need to hire a decorator or something!! They had bare beige walls with a single painting. (Although I did see two paintings sitting on the ground looking like they needed to be hung.) The place had plain old recessed lighting; cafe tables with cheapo diner style chairs; no booths; and no mirror, no soap, and no towels in the ladies' room. No ecoutrements in the ladies room would be inexcusable at Denny's but at a place running about $50/person it's awful. \n\nService:\nFirst on the good - the male waiter was on the ball. He accidentally brought me the wrong vegetable and corrected his mistake without me pointing it out. He was decently nice and looked professional in a branded shirt.\nHowever, the female waitresses seemed like they belonged in a different restaurant entirely. One was wearing just a tanktop, which seemed way inappropriate for a place where many customers were wearing button-downs and nice pants. The other was wearing a glittery PBR hat and selectively called people \""hon,\"" which I find even more annoying than calling everyone \""hon.\"" The \""hons\"" at the table were me, the only female with our party, and two of the younger guys at our table. When people dress up to come get a steak and pay circa $50 a person, such casual/ unprofessional waitstaff totally doesn't fit.\n\nValue:\nUgh, just go to the strip. It's bad food, but even if it were good food it wouldn't be worth it.\nAppetizers run about $15-$20 and are hardly shareable. The rolled New York includes four small pieces; the mussels are scant. \nMy filet mignon was $34. I'm pretty sure that's around what Morton's charges!!\nMy soda was $4!! \nThey have an awful meager selection beer and nothing on tap yet charged my husband $7 for his beer!! \n\nBasically, so not worth it.

Quick, hearty meal full of carbs and protein!! Sometimes it's a good thing to indulge and this place is a great place for it with their custom orders!!

I've eaten here twice and the food has been excellent both times. \n\nThe chicken curry I had there for lunch today was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The rice and naan it was served with were also good if unremarkable. For some reason I decided to try the salted lassie today and salty is an understatement. I LOVE salt and still only managed to make it through 1/3 of this drink so lassie drinkers beware. I had the plain lassie the time before and it was good, if a bit foamy.\n\nWill definitely eat here again.

Rude! We sat down after visiting the children's museum and the waitress came over and took our drink order. Our drinks were delivered to our table and a couple questions about the menu were asked. A few minutes after that a woman came over and asked us if we just sat ourselves. We answered yes because there was an open table on the patio, no sign, and no one had greeted us as we walked up to the patio. We didn't think about it as we did not see anyone standing and it's a pizza place. But we were wrong. The woman told us we cut in front of a bunch of parties and we were brought our tab and asked to leave. I was upset because she was very rude about it and the waitress never said anything. So I ended up having to pay $18 dollars for our drinks and then we walked across to the pub across the street where the food and service was much better. I would never eat here again. At least they could have asked us to wait. Plain rude!!

Hi My name is Thalha i am loyal starbucks customer, Last night at 830pm i went to the store 8951 south tryon street through the drive through and order iced venti soy chai latte, after i pulled out i tasted the drink and it had coffee in it, so they gave me the wrong drink. Thats fine, mistakes happen, so i went back through the drive through and waited 10 minutes in line and i was given the right drink after i returned the wrong one but not a word was said, not even an acknowledgement of we made a mistake and wasted your time, on top of that i had to ask for a straw and napkins. Thats just rude, the lady seemed to be bothered that i came back to get the right product i ordered. I am extremely disappointed at the lack of her customer service skills.

This locally owned fast casual Mexican joint features quality food and reasonable prices. My personal favorite is the chorizo and eggs torta, but you really can't go wrong with any of the Mexican sandwiches.

One of my parents friends, who has been living in Vegas for ages, recommended this place for some authentic Chinese food. They just gave me the address and the Chinese name. I pull up and see a place called Food Express. I call them to make sure they gave me the correct address. They confirm its the correct place.\n\nAs I walk into this place, I was pretty skeptical. How good can a place be with a generic name like Food Express? Like my 3rd grade teacher taught me, \""don't judge a book by its cover\"". The rest of my party arrives and we dig into the menus. It has the typical Chinese fare. We order a few dishes and hope for the best.\n\nThe food came out in a timely manner. Wow. It was surprisingly good. The food reminds me of some of the Chinese restaurants I used to eat when I was back in San Francisco. I wouldn't necessarily say this is the best Chinese food in Vegas, but it was good nevertheless. The service was also good. I would definitely come back here to eat.\n\nIn fact, a few days later I did come back. I ordered some take out which was promptly ready when I arrived. I ordered some Honey Walnut Shrimp, Beef Chow Fun, and Hong Kong Style Beef and Chinese Broccoli Chow Mein. \n\nAs always, I posted some pictures. Enjoy!

My party arrived at 8:30pm on Wednesday, we sat down at the bar and we were IMMEDIATELY greeted. Within 12 minutes we had drinks and food and with 20 minutes we had our entrees. The service \""team\"" could not have been more pleasant. What a juxtaposition from Zinc Bistro, just 100 ft down the way. Thank you North for saving our evening.

Come here for authentic canton-style noodle soup, since it's the best in Madison. I was transported back to times in Chicago's Chinatown and business trips in Hong Kong. These are American serving sizes, so if you're a smaller person you could probably order to split between two people, and get a second, drier dish to nibble on or pack for home. \n\nI ordered the shiitake mushroom and chicken noodle soup (N5) and it was exactly what I wanted. Clear broth, veggies, and \""wonton noodle\"" style noodles. The Thai iced tea was delicious with lemon instead of cream, it was like a southern-style sweet tea with an Asian twist. \n\nThe ambiance and service isn't as polished as other establishments in Madison, but what are you coming here for? They also have various imported beers sold by the bottle, and a list of specials almost every day of the week. \n\nThen we got fortune cookies that spoke the truth, so, this place is magic.

2/23/10\n\nSat at the patio to admire the colorful and lush surroundings, but at the expense of sitting on very damp cushions, which I didn't even notice until I had risen to go the restroom to wash my hands before having a bite to eat. (Another man sitting at the next table eventually stood up to look for drier cushions, as well.) Service was very friendly- that is, up until I paid, but more about this later. Ordered the weekly drink special- the rose margarita. Delicious! Pretty, too. \n\nFor apps, I tried the Cilantro hummus ($2) and the Grilled steak skewers ($5). Loved the hummus and pita, and the pita also paired well w/ the spicy cheese sauce that came w/ the steak skewers. As for the skewers themselves... these were processed meat pieces, not from fresh steaks. I did not appreciate the texture. (I'm very interested to read about others' opinions on this dish.) To think I received more satisfaction from a $2 dish and a cheese sauce! At least the margarita was very good...\n\nAs I've said, the service was very friendly, and patient, answering all of my allergy concerns. I had a very hard time securing a working outlet for my laptop, though, w/ my server and the assistant manager saying that the outlet that I found was \""out-of-service.\"" Yet, a third server/runner enthusiastically offered to get maintenance to have a look at the outlet, only to be intercepted by the asst. mgr., and suddenly, I was out of luck again. Apparently, the asst. manager didn't want me to have use of my laptop while sitting outside. Too bad, bec. I would've ordered another drink AND a dessert had I been able to stay much longer, but my dying battery had me packing and looking for an outlet to use elsewhere. (Also, when it looked like I wasn't going to have access to an outlet, and after repeated visits from the server regarding dessert, I decided to ask for my receipt. It took quite awhile to get the table ticket. It seemed like when she knew I wasn't planning on ordering anything more, the friendly service disappeared. Where once I had two or more reps coming over asking if I needed their assistance, I now couldn't even flag down one for a glass of water!)\n\nI'd like to come back to surround myself again in such sensuous and verdant environs; I just will be sure not to visit right after it rains. I may even just skip R-Bar and try Rita's Kitchen or BLT Steak's happy hour menus, instead. Perhaps it's best not to return at all? I wouldn't want to trouble the Camelback Inn staff to wait on a troublesome customer such as myself...

CUPCAKES is pretty much all I have to say here. They have good coffee and lots of other menu items that I haven't had. Though, the other day I had a chocolate croissant and it was probably the best one I've had in awhile. Picture proof below.

Without a doubt, the best restaurant in Las Vegas. Service top notch. Food is excellent. Value is excellent. I've been there three times and I won't go to Vegas without eating here. Taking a date or someone special where you want the best, please, try it out. I know you won't be disappointed. For a group, order one dish less than you have in your party and share. I love love love this place.

This place is disgusting. My coworkers warned me, My friends warned me, but I wanted to try it out. Never again will I think of staying here again. \n\nThe towels are yellow and some are stained, the shower overflows, there was an empty bottle of water on the floor when we first entered the room. There are no mirrors in the rooms besides the one in the bathroom. \n\nThe place smells like sweat covered in febreeze aroma cigarettes. Wow. This place is the worst hotel in Vegas. I do not recommend anyone to stay here.

So I'm pretty much an old lady. Although, I do like to pretend that I know what's hip and occasionally douche it up with the young'ns. But, this wasn't one of those times. I took the family to Vegas for a weekend getaway and South Point offered the best value. Yeah it's off the strip but it's fine if you drive here because you could just take the 5 minute drive in if you choose to. This hotel is beautiful inside and out. It doesn't feel all used and abused. It's very family friendly. They have a bowling alley, a movie theater, an equestrian center, an arcade, and all the other things you'd expect from a Vegas hotel; the casino, a spa, fitness center, barber shop, and pools. There's the main pool, a kiddie pool, and a jacuzzi. There is a daily fee for the fitness center,though, wack.\n \nThe room was nice and clean, 500 sq. ft., the bathroom was big and had a door separating the bathtub from the vanity, which is awesome, right? I also had a view of the pool.\n\nThe main floor has something like 9 restaurants, a few of which I did eat at. Also, the bowling alley has a snack bar that serves pizza, hot dogs, nachos, that type of thing.\nThere was something wrong with the elevators while I was here, not sure if it happens all the time, but, there were only two of the six elevators working; kind of inconvenient.\n\nOverall, I had a great time. It was nice to get away and relax like a grown up.\n\nside note: I won my first night there and then lost it on the second night.\nMy review and/or star rating was not affected by this experience.

We didn't stay here but we came to visit specifically for the coaster. It was absolutely amazing. The price is about $14 a person but they do sell all day passes for about $25. Definitely a must do.

I got their Almost Famous Cheese Stake pretzel and three plain ones. I think their website is wrong, I got charged a $1 extra for something, I'm assuming it's for the cheese stake pocket. But later my husband told me that if I buy more than three plain pretzels they do a discount. \nNow I feel cheated. No one likes to be cheated. I don't care about the extra dollar, but the first impression I got from this place is not a good one. I don't see me, nor my coworkers ordering from here.\nBy the way, my husband was starving and he did finished his cheese stake pocket but he said it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. \nAnd for the pretzels: Vinnie's keep their pockets and pretzels displayed in a glass case that keeps them warm but as soon as those pretzels cool off they're stiff and not very desirable.

Food is terrible! Ordered a rueben and what I got was burnt, soggy bread with tsp. of cabbage slaw and rubbery deli meat! Service was lacking even though the restaurant was empty on a busy Saturday at the Mall. (should have been a warning)! The manager erased the bill but left me lacking for a real rueben!

The food is great but the attention to detail is pathetic! My first time their I had a chocolate Reese's concrete mixer. It was amazing! Been back for it now three more times and all three times my order was wrong! 1st time I received the mixer with Reese's pieces, not Reese's buttercups, 2nd time back added hot fudge and received vanilla ice cream and 3rd time back I received vanilla ice cream with snickers. \nSo to re-cap;\n\nOrdered: Chocolate ice cream with Reese's Buttercup\nReceived: What I ordered exactly\n\nOrdered: Chocolate ice cream with Reese's Buttercup\nReceived: Chocolate ice cream with Reese's Pieces \n\nOrdered: Chocolate ice cream with Reese's Buttercup & hot fudge\nReceived: Vanilla ice cream with Reese's Buttercup & hot fudge\n\nOrdered: Chocolate ice cream with Reese's Buttercup & hot fudge\nReceived: Vanilla ice cream with Snickers & hot fudge\n\nKeep In mind I just started Invisalign as well so my teeth are a little loose so eating the Reese's pieces and the snickers was somewhat difficult.\n\nUPDATE: Went again May 18th, ordered another Tall Chocolate Reese's buttercup concrete mixer. What did I get a tall chocolate mixer with NO Reese's, only ice cream. How difficult is it to get an order correct!!!???

Really good pad thai. Yellow curry was good as well. Wife tried to order BBQ chicken but got talked or of it by the server. Maybe next time. She enjoyed her curry. Will be back.

This place bothers me. I already everything about country so going to these kind of places freaks me out. I was forced to go here because the boyfriends parents were in town and they choose Cadillac Ranch due to their type of \""cuisine\"". I have to say the foo d wasn't bad. Server messed up my order but when they got it right it was ok. I will not go here again however. Sorry.

Steak was over cooked, but after it was fixed it was delicious. My wife had the file' gumbo and would give it a four. The angus filet and sides were excellent.

Newly opened in the old Vitamin T space, this place is as fun, if not more so, then there Camelback Esplanade location, with it more brightly colored palette. Be sure to try their empanadas. They're nontraditional, but are colorful, flavorful and oh so yummy!

Crab Ravioli and Shrimp Parm are to die for. Also, Canolis are homemade... Hard to find in Charlotte.

Very friendly staff. They have no problem pulling out any product to let you check it out. Their selection is HUGE. Not just on smoking pieces, but weapons, legal highs, legal lows, EVERYTHING it would take to be a well rounded smoke shop. Of course it goes further with every accessory, cleaning solutions, and synthetic urine. The selection coupled with the great customer service goes great with their pricing as well. I will definitely repeat a trip there.

well the drive was worth it ....i got this crazy burger with fried egg on it....sounds weird...but it was amazing along with sweet potato fries it was a meal i had to go to the gym after....

Today I tried to return a skirt, (the only item I have EVER and will ever buy from this store) not realizing they only give store credit for returns. Yes, it is clearly stated on the receipt and in their store, my fault for not seeing and reading. My fault for not trying it on and shopping with my daughter! However, sometimes exceptions can be made, right? So that's what I asked for, an exception to the rule. The managers, a male & female who suddenly spoke their native language, Chinese or Mandarin, (not that that matters, it's just RUDE) and were clearly discussing this with one another while I stood there. (I was the only customer at the counter). What response did I get? RUDE, RUDE, RUDENESS!! I asked them if they have EVER given store credit before. Neither one of them answered me. The almighty dollar has taken over at this CHEAP-WEAR-IT-AND-WASH-IT-ONCE-THEN-IT'S-DONE store. Gone are the days of great customer service, you know, the THANK-YOU, COME AGAIN kind of service. No, it's more like how much money can we make in America where all the people have money to shop?\n\nI admire the patient, sweet cashier who had to hear the whole thing. She was so kind to me. I truly hope they don't treat their employees the way they treated me!\nI will NEVER go back to that store again!

I'm going to give them 4 stars because our server, while a little awkward, tried really hard to make sure we were happy. It was a little hard for me to select an entree here because everything, and I mean everything, seems to either be spicy or loaded with cilantro. Two of my biggest dining foes. \n\nI ended up with the fried calamari roti (burrito) with whichever was the lightest spiced curry. I forgot to mention the cilantro thing at first and so after we ordered I remembered and got our servers attention. He took care of it right away and my food did come out cilantro free, phew!\n\nI also had the squash casserole and side salad because I was told the mac-n-cheese was even spicy, made with a queso sauce. Sides were okay, I did try my sistersmac and while yes it did have a kick, I found it pretty tolerable and very yummy!\n\nBrownie in an orange was weird and the orange flavor on everything was a bit much for me. But it wasn't bad. Overall this might not be a place suited to my tastes, but I appreciate what they are doing and I wish them success!

While visiting friends in Charlotte they showed me the lay of the land with a must visit to Manifest. Did not know what to expect when we got there. The shopping center was stuck in the 1970's. The place was awesome. Liked that the used DVD's and CD's were buy one and get the second one for $1. I was very proud of myself that I did not get too crazy shopping with this deal. The selection was great and got some good CD's. Will be going back on my next visit.

I love Mexican food. El Dorado has decent food, but for the price there is much better. Their guacamole is very plain and tastes more like mashed avocados with a scoop of Pico De Gallo on top, then guacamole. I have had the fish tacos which were par for the course, and the braised pork adobo. Portions of the pork were juicy and delicious, while other bites were dry. It seemed as if reheated pork was mixed with fresh pork.\n\nThe service is slow and disappointing. The guacamole came out fast, but the chips took 5 minutes. The server decided to add chicken to the South West Caesar salad for my vegetarian girl friend. After we finished our salad and guacamole it took thirty minutes for our entrees to arrive and being charged for salsa at a Mexican restaurant is just odd.\n\nThey do have a good selection of tequilas.

Maybe I'm not high maintenance? I don't know....\nI just don't get all the bad reviews. Room was fine, bars were great, what else?\nWas here for work, so didn't get a chance to do much....\n\nWas here for a convention so i spent most of my time in the arena, which was HUGGGEE, the ballroom and some of the conference rooms.\n\nBesides the seminars, I slept for 3 hrs a night and went bar hopping in the casino....I like MGM.

Too much \""Foo Foo\"" and not enough substance. Deep fried hard boiled eggs, sausage cooked in grits or brussel sprouts are not my idea of appetizers that you would enjoy with a glass or two of wine. The meat main courses were okay but the side dishes like the spinach spaetzle was bland with no flavor. My wife had the Ahi Tuna and wouldn't eat it because it tasted like it was spoiled. It may have been the spices or sauces and she normally loves Ahi, but not this night. \n\nThe guy at the front door needs to get a job in the back kitchen where he doesn't have to deal with people but once you get past him the rest of the staff were absolutely wonderful and did great job. \n\nNone of the four of us will go back because the menu was just too \""over the top\"" but it obviously appeals to a lot of others because the place was packed. I am not saying that you shouldn't try Beckett's but make sure you read their menu on line first because it may just be too \""Foo Foo\"" for your taste!

They're getting sloppy.\n\nWhile I appreciate the novelty of vegan ice cream (which, most store bought brands are better) with various mix-ins, and vegan baked goods, there is a lot to complain about.\n\nTheir facebook touts Hot Fudge Sundays in which affogatos and hot fudge sundaes are $2. We went there and asked for a hot fudge sundae and were met with confusion by the barista who brought over the other girl who explained that they \""do not have sundaes but we can put hot fudge on an ice cream cup.\"" \n\nWhat? Is that not a sundae?! Did you not have this posted on your facebook as a special? They're doing a poor job of making their staff aware. \n\nAdditionally, the more I get tsoynamis, the more they're screwed up. They often will leave out ingredients or sometimes change them completely. This is a VERY big deal because I am gluten-intolerant... If I order a GF tsoynami, what is the risk they will add a non-GF ingredient and I won't notice until I ingest a bit?\n\nI don't know... Maybe I am over the novelty, or maybe they're just getting sloppy.

So they sat us in what could be described as an \""overflow\"" room. Completely different feel than the main dining area.\nThen they made us wait for everything. Halfway thru the ribeye served at the improper heat I ordered a second glass of wine....and the first was empty long before the waitstaff even approached to see if we needed anything. It was finally delivered about two minutes after I finished my steak.\nAlso disappointing was the seafood pasta dish that was served without its promised lobster.\nI'll try another restaurant.

We stopped in to the Tuck Shop on Saturday night. We were pleased to be seated. We ordered Gin and tonics. They make their own tonic. My partner asked for Bombay with a wedge of lemon. He was told they have one kind of Gin and it comes with a cucumber, no substitutions. You can't have your cocktail with lemon. Is this the soup Nazi's new place? The waiter brought a plate with a lemon wedge but he almost seemed afraid that he would be caught. The drink tasted like cucumber he didn't want to drink it. We had a few small plates nothing great everything was extremely salty or extremely sweet. I think the chef has a problem with his/her palette

Welcome back Zorbas! Green Street didn't feel the same without you since you burned down.\n\nZorba's new space is much more roomy with the cashier on the right and near the back, directly opposite from where it was located before. Although the ambiance is much improved, my gyro lacked taste. Sure it had all of the fixings without me asking: yogurt sauce, cucumber, tomato, onion...but the meat was bland.\n\nMy expectations for food quality are high even though this restaurant is located in the midst of collegiate-drunken-food-ville where food in this area is generally bland.

Smash Burger you must have a giganotor sized wang to put a location literally 30 feet away from In-n-Out. Which if you have read my previous reviews you would happen to know that I am a self proclaimed burger connoisseur and In-N-Out loyalist, but any way enough about In-N-Out and back to Smash's gigantic throbbing burger dong. I mean this thing must be huge, brontosaurus like, mounted somewhere at the bottom of the restaurants foundation penetrating deep into the dry, rocky desert soil, sodomizing the earths crust. Where it rest in solitude a sleeping giant waiting for Odins raven to wake it on Ragnarok.\n\nSo with that being said out of respect for the sheer girth and size of Smash Burgers wiener I decided to give them a shot and see what all the hype was about. I was under the impression it was going to be more a long the lines of a gourmet burger joint. Which already put it in a negative lite for me do to the fact that the words gourmet and burger should never be in conjunction with one another. Upon arrival my previous misconceptions went quickly out the window. My wife ordered the Sin City Burger 1/3 lb patty, cheese, fried egg, hay stack onions and bacon, this beast was pretty damn good. In lieu of recent events my wife described it as being perfect pregnant lady food. I ordered the Spicy Baja Burger which was topped with pepper jack cheese, jalapenos, guacamole and chipotle mayo. Don't get me wrong it was a decent burger, however there was no \""wow\"" factor. Lets just say I wouldn't order it again. Good but not great. Now lets get to the high lite of the meal...DEEP FRIED PICKLES. These things were off the chain. The serving size was smaller than I would have like to see, however they were still amazing. \n\nSo if you're looking for a better quality burger with more flavor options that your typical sh*tty McDonalds or Burger King, and don't mind paying for it, take a ride to Smash Burger you won't be disappointed. However, with it being in such close proximity to In-N-Out I'll take a double double.

First time here and we loved it! The atmosphere was great and the food was delicious! My favorite was the Dancing Tiger Roll.

I have been going to Deyna for several years....she is the BEST! She is great at what she does. Deyna is a true professional (plus she is really nice) :) if you are looking for waxing in the east valley, Wax on Wax off with Deyna is the ONLY place you should consider.

I have always loved their burgers, maybe it is their fresh ingredients they use or just the taste of the burger compared to other fast food places.

When the Egg & I first opened -- it was GREAT! The service and food quality has consistently gotten worse over the years. My husband and I decided over a year ago that we would not go back. Yet, last Sunday (3/18/12), we wanted breakfast and it's the only place convenient to the Las Sendas residential area -- so we decided to give it another try. It was horrible. The wait staff is clueless. We waited over 45 minutes for our breakfast. Our food was cold when it arrived. My husband's potatoes tasted funny. And, the blueberry pancakes we ordered had 6 berries placed on top and 4 blueberries stuffed in the center of a regular pancake. We were told the cook was too busy and forgot to incorporate the berries and placed them in the pancake at the last minute. I was astounded, to say the least. They also messed up two other table's orders sitting next to us. Yet again, my husband and I were disappointed. I promise, we WILL NEVER GO BACK. We'd rather drive to Tempe, Chandler, or even Phoenix and that's too bad since we'd prefer to support our local businesses.

I have been here 2 times in the past week. It is that yummy! The first time i had the pak lok beef - it was very good, the beef was a bit tough but the flavors were amazing. My dinner companion was hoping there would be some adult beverages, but they do not sell alcohol yet. However it is BYOB with a corking fee. The second time i went with my Mom since she is a huge fan of different cuisines from around the world. We shared a cambodian coffee (yuuum and strong!) the crepes and ginger chicken stir fry. The crepes were both our favorite dish, i would still recommend the stir fried chicken though too! Both were delicious. Just a heads up though the chicken used was mostly dark meat, i love this cut of chicken but my mom prefers breast meat (she still thought it was yummy though). All of the meals i had there tasted so clean and fresh, a steal for the prices they have. Both times the servers were super friendly and nice. The time between the two shared dishes was perfect. The ambiance is very pleasant. I'll definitely be becoming a regular at this place.

Great, friendly staff who took good care of us on a crowded Friday afternoon. Decent margaritas, and my chicken tacos were very good.

meh.\n\nif you are into hanging out with as many frat brothers as can be squeezed into a half block, this place is totally your jam. \n\ni'm not. \n\nit's crowded. the service sucks. the drinks are watery. the food is just.... well, shitty bar food. and it's loud. and did i mention crowded? i am sure it appeals to a lot of people.... who go to college, wish they were in college, or wish they were boning someone of college age.... but man, i'm a realist. that ship has sailed. i was so hoping it would be a nice outdoor venue for people who didn't want to hit the campus scene. it's not though. it used to be. now i avoid it like that plague. \n\nif you are looking for a dj who cranks out the frat favorites of 2007 and does it loud and proud... you will love this bar. if you are looking for a chill place to hang out with your friends and have a couple decent beers, there are other options.

Best sushi in the Phoenix area! I originally heard about this place from a sushi chef at another restaurant. I asked him where he went when he wanted sushi, and he said to Hiro! The best thing about Hiro Sushi is that the average customer has a sophisticated palate, so they can offer all the exotic stuff nobody else has. If it is your first time, sit at the far left of the sushi bar (that is where the owner, Hiro-san does his work). Tell him you are \""at his mercy\"" and see what he gives you!

Horrible experience - 50 min wait for food and the server misplaced my card and didn't seem to care at all!

Ordered a strawberry slush, watermelon slush, cherry slush, and coke slush. Sounds fairly simple, right? Instead, they forgot the watermelon slush and brought out a pi\u00f1a colada slush instead of the coke slush. The girl at the drive-thru was rude when we pointed out the obvious mistake with the pi\u00f1a colada slush and claimed my white colored slush was \""definitely\"" coke. I don't think so. We pulled ahead to wait for the watermelon slush and received a cherry slush. Ugh. When I asked to have my coke slush corrected, the car hop ignored me and hurried away. What kind of customer service is this? Won't be going there again.

GROSS HAIR FOUND IN SUB!\nWe eat at firehouse subs several times a year and think it's good but this ruined it for my wife. She took a bite and pulled out a nasty long hair that was entangled in her sub. GROSS! When I picked up the subs tonight there were several girls making the sandwiches...you would think firehouse has rules in place to make sure their hair doesn't end up in your food. It ruined her dinner and wasted our money. Thanks firehouse subs.

The bartender was a bitch. She was young and inattentive and spent the whole time chatting with her boyfriend at the end of the bar. He is also a jerk. My whole group left after 1 round.

Might be a good idea if wait wasn't forever. Waited on line for half an hour, then waited over a half hour for food to be prepared. Doesn't seem like a fast food concept. Also food wasn't prepared incorrectly after all that wait. Verdict - overpriced, underwhelmed - not a happy consumer.

I stopped here once before, a long long time ago after it had just opened... only to find it was closed during it's normal business hours. Probably just a fluke; a new business blunder. I meet with a \""green\"" moms group from time to time and today we had a lunch date set up for Essence. I wasn't expecting more than the usual \""bakery\"" lunch food: chicken or tuna salad on croissants, simple deli style sandwiches. But oh! was I pleasantly surprised to find that their food was seriously high quality and locally grown and raised, to boot! Their burgers are made from grass fed beef (that's what I'm trying next time), their produce comes from a local farm. I had the grilled cheese (mozzerella, tomato, basil) and it practically melted in my mouth. It took a lot of restraint to save half for my husband. I also had the soup of the day- bean soup with herbs, and it too was delicious. I shared that with my baby. The only thing I was able to consume by myself was the salad. Now, I was in such a hurry because I had to eat, chat and leave within 30 minutes of ordering because we had an appointment with our realtor. I remember thinking \""damn, this salad is delicious\"" but I can't remember what it was that made it so good. But take my word for it: the mixed greens salad is good. \n\nAs I said, I met with a moms group, and we ran into a bit of a problem in that the restaurant only has one high chair. The bigger kids did fine in regular chairs, but I think they may have opted for a high chair had my daughter not been using the only one. \n\nWe arrived around 11, and were there for about 45 minutes. The place started to get packed around 11:30 and by the time I was wrapping up my meal, it was crowded and noisy, and the other moms and I were talking very loudly in order to hear one another. \n\nI was told good things about their breakfast.... that'll be my next trip!

I called a day early to reserve a table at 1pm on a Saturday for 10 for my mom's 75th birthday. When we arrived, they had given our table to another group, assuming it was ours, so we had to wait while they put together another table in the back, and locate chairs for us, too. The place is tiny but they managed to fit us all together eventually. We had a sampling of most of the foods between us, and the pierogi's were excellent, but I wasn't a huge fan of the tomato sauce on the golabki. Full disclosure, my mom makes most of the food on the menu at home, so I'm a bit spoiled and used to great Polish foods. However, the pork cutlet was amazing and even their kids meal fried and chicken tenders were great. The service was slow, with only 2 servers in the full restaurant, but they were very nice and accommodating. They even sang Happy Birthday in Polish, too! I may go again if we're in the Matthews area as the prices were also very reasonable, but probably won't make the drive from Charlotte too often.

I was in Wisconsin for training for the week and this place was close to my hotel. Also, they had fried cheese curds on the menu which I HAD to try! I had been hearing about these things for weeks from my coworkers who have already been out there. It was a Friday evening and the place was pretty packed. The atmosphere was typical suburban bar. Not too rowdy, but loud. I'm not a beer drinker, but the Pinot Noir was good! :o)\n\nWe had to wait a few minutes before our waiter came. The fried cheese curds were good! They tasted like fried mozzarella sticks to me, but still pretty good. My coworker got a burger and I got a deluxe grilled cheese sandwich that we shared. Both were really tasty and filling. She decided to try the clam chowder and it wasn't that great. I may be a little biased, but I don't buy seafood in the Midwest. Unless it's deep fried in beer batter and served with fries. The specialty is meat and cheese. Seafood, I'm sticking to the east coast. I decided to try the sweet potatoes fries which were very good. \n\nOverall I liked this place. It was walking distance from our hotel, the people were friendly and the food was good. It was a nice place to have a laid back and chill meal after a long week.

This is a very nice spot for brunch. With tables both separate and communal, they pack 'em in. The illy coffee is too bitter for my taste but the food was well done. As most spots in Old Montreal, it has a painted brick wall and industrial ceiling which didn't make it too noisy. But, I sat next to the wall which had an accumulation of crumbs on its ledge.

Amazing show.\nExpensive- $150 a person but probably worth it\nTheir use of the constantly shifting pool is mind blowing.\nEvery seat is a good seat.\n\nKinda trippy which I liked.\nThe babies in the beginning definitely set the scene.\nI'm not sure I understand what the show is about but does that really matter?\n\nSynchronized swimming was stunning.\nThe weird huge lady that drops for a minute was super strange but kept you thinking about it haha.\n\nOverall, I would venture to say it's the best show in Vegas. So if you must spend a crap ton of money on a Vegas show, this is the one.

Best short rib tacos so far!! The fried chicken is also really good for dinner. The tacos are definitely a must here. Great patio area too.

In the area on a cold Monday night and coming down with a cold myself I thought \""Hey, there's a noodle soup place near here isn't there?\"" I figured I'd had Noodles & Co. bookmarked on Yelp long enough and decided to give them a serious try. In fact it was on a suggestion from a friend who frequented their location in Madison, WI.\n\nSo it was pretty dang close to closing when I stopped in but despite that they were most accommodating. (I'm usually on edge when I dare to go in a place so close to closing.) They complied happily though and even gave me a great recommendation to try out there current special the Thai Hot Pot. It was a cold buster indeed! Perfect amount of spicing and a great combination of ingredients that are standard to an Asian soup dish. Beansprouts, cuts of pork meat, perfectly boiled noodles and some slices of red peppers just to name a few of the ingredients.\n\nAfter I finished that it was like a new world had opened up to me - I could breathe again through both nostrils! On the way out I couldn't help but noticing the huge rice crispy treats laid on top of the counter and of course I took a few home.

I'm from Vegas, and growing up we used to visit MacAyo ALL of the time. It was amazingly good mexican food. On a trip to Scottsdale over the summer, my mom insisted we give it a whirl. \n\nI thought it was very basic, quick, chain mexican food. Not horrible, Not great. It was decent, especially considering it's pretty cheap. The manager said the one in Vegas is a lot different than the one in Scottsdale. \n\nNext time, I will definitely go somewhere else, somewhere more authentic.

Tried to call to set up a Geek Squad appointment (new policy).and the idiot gatekeeper at customer service hung up on me or put me on hold then hung up FIVE TIMES, then transferred me to Kentucky or somewhere to actually do what I wanted. FU BESTBUY! Since you aren't providing customer service,fix your crappy parking lot.

Becca is awesome! A few of the folks there aren't the most outgoing and before I started going to Becca regularly I wasn't thrilled with the mani-padi, but Becca fixed all of that. I've been going there for close to 10 years. Even though I live in Mesa, Becca at Smiley Nails is my first choice for mani/pedi and waxing.

Invited to a birthday celebration, decided to order a steak for dinner. \""Sorry we don't have the Filet or the NY steak. We're also out of French Fries.\"" No French Fries at a bar?! WTF? So I order the Turkey Pot Pie. It didn't taste bad, but 30 mins later I was sick. Overall bad experience with exception of the waitress. She worked her ass off!

After seeing some activity on their facebook page, I decided to walk by after having brunch down the street at Eat. To my surprise, it was their first day of being open.\n\nI got the rootbeer doughnut, which had a rootbeer caramel glaze, some kind of filling (maybe vanilla?) and chocolate covered pop rocks. My family decided on the s'mores, maple bacon, and the chocolate old fashioned doughnuts. They were all delicious. The actual dough wasn't too sweet, which I enjoyed, and neither were any of the frostings/glazes/fillings. \n\nThey use Caffe Vita coffee from Seattle, and even do a cold brew for their iced coffee.\n\nI didn't have a chance to try them, but they also make savory doughnuts. They make them when you order, so they don't have any on display in their shop. I didn't see a menu when I was in there, so definitely ask about them when you go in.\n\nThe pastry chef was seemed very excited to be opened, and seemed to have a huge passion for what she is creating. If you're in the downtown area and are looking for a treat, I'd recommend stopping by. I'd also recommend stopping by even if you're not in the downtown area!\n\n.

If I could score less than a star I would. It was not so much the location as the company that has so horrible. The lady at the counter was friendly though it took us 55 minutes to rent a car as we didn't have a reservation and apparently that blows their minds away. \nWe had been renting as our car was in the shop. The car ended up taking longer than planned, so we called about pricing an extension on a Friday around 1 pm. They put an unauthorized hold on another 250 dollars. They had no recourse for us and told us that billing would be able to clear it up Monday. Or if we returned the car it would be posted back. Repeatedly we were blown off and unnecessarily transferred and put on 20 minute plus holds. This does not convey the lack of concern that the representatives had for us but I do understand why they have an F with the better business bureau now.

I went to Chase Field to watch the Dbacks play my favorite team- The Cincinnatti Reds. This was a father's day present for my Dad. Upon arrival to our seats, my dad had a piece of paper taped on his seat stating he had been selected at random and won a souvieneer. The item was a just a hat, but we were so excited he won something! I loved the fact that this stadium is indoors since the outside temp is 90 degrees at 10pm. The game itself was good- Dbacks won I believe. We couldn't stay for the whole game because certain innings lasted A LONG time and my parents have dogs to take care of. There were plenty of choices regarding food and drinks. Our section had a very fun Lemonade guy. He kept shouting \""Lemonade Lemonade.. like Grandma made.\"" We kept cracking jokes about how our grandma didn't make lemonade. All in all I had a blast with my family at this facility!

Not a good dining experience with every fly in las Vegas in your face. VERY expensive for a sandwich with very little meat and even less cheese. Great cheese fries though.

It's kinda cute. It's kinda cozy. But it's big enough to make it useful.\n\nI've been to this branch a few times, and while it's not the flagship, they do have enough things there to make it worth your while. There's a small bank of computers open to the public (don't get me started on a rant about using the library computers to check your Facebook pages... I just have to breathe and realize that some people do use it for things that aren't worthless...). There are a few small tables for you to work or read, and then of course, all the books. A nice kids section, usually a small selection of books for sale, and of course a couple of nice librarians to help out.\n\nI should also mention the free WiFi. Free WiFi is such a crapshoot--sometimes it's free, sometimes it's not really so free, and sometimes it's hardly WiFi. But I'm happy to report that their free WiFi was free as free can be (no password...so watch your security) but smokin' fast. Kudos.

Food is tasty, view is great, otherwise I would give one star (or less) because the service was really frustrating. And expensive, but then most places in that area are expensive.\nThe chicken tortilla soup was really tasty, but awfully small for the 10 dollars price (one small cup, and that was the regular size, no larger option available). One tiny soup, one decent salad, one mixed drink, total check $ 67.50.\nWe asked for a table outside. When I mentioned I wanted to seat by the railing (note: it was late and the restaurant wasn't crowded at all), the attendant seemed annoyed but led us to a table by the railing anyway. The boy that took our orders didn't understand what the drink was (Rob Roy) and somehow related it to the bar tender in a slightly different way. He later took the drink back to the bar tender, only to come back saying the bar tender did just what was requested. We kept the drink. We had a hard time chasing someone for a spoon (while the soup was getting colder) until I finally got up and found a spoon. We were smiling and not giving an attitude at all about it, but the people working there seemed to be in a bad day or something. Ah, yes the view of the crowd on the strip is interesting (not really a good view of the buildings, but still great people watching), but the annoying/annoyed service was not worth my time.

This place is just a flat out joke. Totally overpriced. Went before a show and they gave a limited menu and tacked on the token 20% \""service\"" fee which gave them the right to provide lousy service. First I asked for the beer they had on the chalkboard outside. Had NO clue what I was talking about. Finally gave up and got a Coors Lite. Food was overpriced and less than average. I had the Baked Scrod. Exact same dish at Eat N Park is $8.99 and better than this $27 dish. I would stay clear of this at all costs. If you are going for a night of theater - opt for eating outside the city or at Sonoma Grill down the street. I'm shocked this place is still in business.

Amazing steamed dumplings! Tofu and vegetables, mushroom and cabbage are the best. Go with a big group - since come in plates of 15 - so you want to be ablet o tastes lots of different kinds! All made fresh, so order your next plate as soon as you get the first because it can take a bit long.

Inconsistent is an understatement. The first time my husband and I came here the food was great and the service was very attentive. The only complaint was the ridiculous pricing for the tiny ration of food. This time around the service was extremely slow and lacking which doesn't make sense for a not busy Saturday dinner service at a restaurant. My husband had to get up to ask for a beer. He also then had to get up a second time to get a cold glass for the beer. It also took forever to get our appetizer. The appetizer came out just a handful of minutes before the meal. \nNow the first time I ate here the aloo gobi was great. Portion was small, but it was a flavorful assortment of cauliflower and potato and tomato. \nThis second time around, the aloo gobi was watery, bland, and at the most there were two little bits of potato and hardly any cauliflower. The rest of the mixture was just straight up red onion. Not to forget, there was absolutely no spice. I ordered it medium and got ridiculous bland. I also don't think it helped that the food was served lukewarm. \nNot sure the hubby and I will be back after the two extremely different experiences we had.

We were waiting in line to see the 9:30pm of Mystere and didn't want to wait in the long line, so we decided to grab a slice of pizza, since we had such a late lunch. We both got the sausage,since it was the freshest. It was very cheesy, greasy, and the crust was just mediocre. I had to use 10-15 napkins to sop up all the grease. We ate it, and it served it's purpose, but for pizza standards, it wasn't all that. Last case scenario, or be very very drunk!

One of our worst hotel experiences ever. It is quite old and outdated. The elevator (there's only one) is terribly slow. The wireless Internet, while free, is slower than dial-up and is unusable. We switched over to 3G connection to avoid it. The barn door bathroom doors wouldn't even close all the way. There was only one attendant at the front desk the entire 3+ day trip. Breakfast, while free, was again very slow...a common theme for this establishment. I ate the powered hotel eggs instead of ordered fried eggs after the first day because I didn't want to waste 30 minutes on breakfast. The gym is open 24 hours but it is under provisioned with broken down aerobic equipment. On the bright side, they did have dumbbells in the gym and large rooms with a nice shower. Also, the location is excellent for access to ASU. All in all, I'm surprised Sheraton allows its name on this one. I won't be back.

Call ahead and make sure Vince - the owner - is there. When he's not, the place totally falls apart. It's like having a substitute teacher in a fourth grade class when Vince isn't there. The servers don't care and get snooty and food comes out at various times. I think this is a result of Vince being an active owner/manager. The problem is that he doesn't have a solid manager to back him up when he's gone. Someone else needs to be able to crack the whip. \n\nI'm a regular and will continue to be so, but my trips to Moto are few and far between when Vince isn't there driving his tatted-up sushi and saki slinging serving staff.

Craving popcorn on my Vegas trip! Thankfully, Yelp and Popcorn Girl saved the day. \n\nThe positive yelp reviews for Popcorn Girl convinced me to make the drive and give this place a try. \n\nThey a have about one million flavors and blends to choose from and the staff was very enthusiastic about all of them. Thank goodness they give free samples with a smile! How could I not try a few... or six gourmet popcorn delights? Spicy, savory, sweet, and chocolaty... they have it all. They even have flavors inspired by popular foods like pizza, mac and cheese, and loaded baked potato. They also have a cooler full of fancy flavored soda. The young guy and gall working in the store didn't seem even slightly annoyed by my indecisiveness. \n\nI finally settled on a mini bag of mixed candy flavors and a mini bag of the Las Vegas mix. Don't let the size \""mini\"" fool ya.. it's the smallest size but it is not as \""mini\"" as it sounds. I also picked up a bottle of Jasmine flavored soda just because I thought it sounded interesting. All of this totaled a little over 6 dollars! What a deal!! \n\nGo. Munch. Enjoy!
