Service should be in the negatives - Arrived 1hr 45 mins after calling them. I called them after waiting 45 minutes and the person told me that the driver left already. Waited an extra hour and our pizza was near cold. I had to re-heat mines. Did not even get an apology. I understand it's in South Philly and I did not expect to be treated like a "queen," but jeez louis. A simple "I apologize" would have been nice. Taste - Let's just say aside from being upset with the service, we did not want to have a second slice. There were 3 of us and we barely finished the first. We had gotten the vegetarian pizza and the veggies were disgusting. The broccoli pieces (they looked chopped up very well, or the leftovers after chopping a broccoli up) were discolored, onions were old, and ugh. It was just horrendous. My stomach was hurting so bad afterwards and I couldn't be more upset (especially since they're so expensive now). I have ordered there about 8 years ago and they were great. I think they fell off or got lazy. I don't know, but I will not be ordering from there ever again. I'd rather starve if they were the only restaurant opened that day. SORRY.

It's just NOT worth it. I came in to have 3 teeth pulled but couldn't afford it and the dentist laughed and said "well you gonna still be in pain if you dont". While I was having my teeth pulled, I began to panick because my entire throat was numb and it felt like I was choking. The dentist then forcefully placed his hand over my mouth and ordered me to "breathe through your nose". It didn't help and freaked me out more. I came in for a post to be put in. My appointment was at 10:30. At 10:45 the desk lady tells me that he is "on his way".... why the hell are you taking appointments if you're not even going to be on your office? They are TOO laid back here considering how much money I'm paying. Don't GO.

The pastries are made in house so I cannot wait to try them! I tried the salmon and Brie omelet by the suggestion of a staff member... it was delicious!

I love Westshore Mall mostly because it's right down the street from me so I have a plethora of food offerings: Mitchell's Seafood Besito Maggiano's and An entire food court just for me! Well, I do have to share it with, oh today I'd say hundreds of people, but still, it's awesome! Then there's the shopping. Okay, I lost Saks. It was a lot of fun to go in there and try on ball gowns with my girls, but I get it...Dicks Sporting Goods probably has a bigger following, sadly. I say sadly only because I'd rather shop for pretty than sweaty any day of the week...but I don't like to sweat and that's for another day! Moving on...there are some big anchor stores - like Macy's, JC Penneys and Sears. Then, the regulars like Victoria Secret, Banana Republic and Ann Taylor. With fun shops thrown in like H&M, Francesca's and a great little jewelry store with alot of vintage goods down the hallway toward Dick's that you shouldn't miss! Parking is never a problem, even on rainy days there are multiple 'under the eaves' spots so not a hair on your head feels a drop! Don't forget a gelato or Starbucks on your way out (or in!) it's my neighborhood and I'll wave a Yelpie as you pass!

This is a hidden gem in Tarpon Springs. It is set off the street so don't drive too fast or you will miss it. The Jerk Center has some of the best jerk chicken in Pinellas County. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and it was perfect. We have been there numerous times mostly for take out, but decided to dine in today. They weren't busy which was nice. We ordered the jerk chicken dinner (Large) for the price of 10.52 the amount they give you is very generous. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and the rice and beans is delicious. We also ordered two beef patties which are amazing along with the sweet plantains. We only had to wait about 10-15 minutes for our food which came out nice and hot (just how I like my food). It is a family owned restaurant which I love and the young guy that takes the orders and waits on you is super friendly and goes out of his way to help you! The food is priced right, the restaurant is super clean, and the service is great. Three things that make a restaurant experience great!! I definitely recommend stopping by the Jerk Center and giving this place a try, you will not be disappointed.

Florida sun. You've gotta love it. My family and I spent the afternoon on the beach recently. After soaking in all of the rays, we found ourselves extremely hungry (and sunburnt) searching for our next meal. That is when we stumbled in to Sea Critters. It seemed that they were preparing for some sort of karaoke event, but we made our way through to find an open table on the outside back dock. With the open water, parked boats and smell of seafood, we felt right at home. We arrived in time for their daily Happy Hour and took advantage of their $3.50 margaritas. They hit the spot. While waiting, our server brought a complimentary loaf of ciabiatta bread with a Mango Cherry chutney butter. The bread was fresh and very warm. It was on point. While waiting for our main course, I made my way in to the bathroom. It was absolutely filthy and looked like it had been neglected for some time. There was plenty of staff clocked in that could have taken care of this at any time. The kitchen however was super quick. By the time I returned to the table, our Gator Bites had arrived. Boasting to be caught wild in Plant City, I found myself questioning the validity of that claim. Realistically, who cares? And how do you back that up? We're in Florida. Home of the Gators. They're everywhere! These were served up hand-breaded, fried and with a side of horseradish sauce. Pretty tasty, but much smaller in size than what I was hoping for. I ordered the "Hog Wings". The menu describes them as "fall-off-the-bone tender pork shanks served Buffalo or BBQ Style". I chose the Buffalo style. Honestly, it was Franks red hot sauce. Again, small quantity. I found myself wishing I had about twice as much... And I'm not a heavy eater. It is on the Appetizer menu, so keep that in mind when you think it is enough to be a meal. My daughter ordered the Cuban sandwich with fries. Maybe I'm a purist, but I didn't feel that it was an authentic representation of a Cuban. It tasted fine, but something was off with the pork. The fries were of the potato wedge variety. There were no complaints from my daughter. My girlfriend ordered the Rockefeller Scallops Risotto. It was very soupy, but the scallops were cooked perfect. Overall, we had a pleasant experience on a nice Florida day. The server was quick and friendly. The kitchen was quick and accurate. We would probably eat here again if given another opportunity.

You can always count on a great massage here! I have been several times (always ended up getting the same masseuse) and have had great experiences. The place is no frills so don't expect "day spa" but the massages are excellent!

Great atmosphere, great service and great food. So far I've haven't had a bad experience at ceviche Tampa, Orlando nor St. Pete. But I do have to say the food tastes better (my opinion) at the St. Pete location. I have personally never ordered a main entree, so my review its based on tapas only. When I go to ceviche I like to just go ahead and go cray cray ordering tapas left and right. One person could order and finish around 3-5 tapas depending on your appetite. on this trip I started out with the champiñones al ajillo (mushrooms sauteed with garlic), and the bread goes very well if you dip it in the sauce that the plate comes in. Then we moved on to the gambas al ajillo (amazing flavor), gambas a la parrilla (amazing los delish), batatas bravas (potatoes on a creamy sauce "spicy" according to them but is not at all... and its a must), albondigas (meat balls), almejas, ox tail (so tender and flavorful), chorizo al brandy and that was a perfect meal for 3. We ended up satisfied and just right so we can have dessert. Overall this place its awesome and after the food, you can always go walk near the marina.

I really enjoyed my first experience floating, and I'm glad I came here. When you check in, the employee will show you around and explain things thoroughly, if you've never been before. The room contains one float tub, as well as a shower area. I'd start with the ear plugs. They offer two separate types of plus, foam and wax. I highly recommend the wax, and I also recommend putting it in first, before the shower, so you can make sure that it's in there well. You want to shower before you get in the tub, making sure that you dispose of all the oils on your skin. They provide the shampoo, conditioner, and soap, as well as towels. Make sure that you shower quickly, because as soon as the jet turns off in your tub, your time starts. Make sure to turn the room light off before stepping into your tub. In the tub, you have a spray bottle of water, a neck pillow, and a small towel. You have the option of laying in total darkness, or with a soft light inside the pod. I did the total darkness, and enjoyed it, thought I did turn it on in the middle of the session because I got salt in my eyes. DO NOT TOUCH YOUR FACE in the pod. You'll want to steady yourself in the tub and be as still as possible. I ended up using the head pillow, and also leaving my hair down. It took me a while to relax enough, I could only hear my breathing and heartbeat. My breathing was off because I had recently been sick, so it took a while for me to be able to quiet my breathing. I ended up falling asleep quickly, and before I knew it, my light was on and my session was over. You have as much time as you need to shower and wash all of the soap off. They have plenty of things you could want... q-tips, towels, etc. The staff was very pleasant to work with, and were super friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed my time, and will definitely be back.

Interesting place, but decor and ambiance aside there are a few items to note that make or break a business. Let's start with service. Somewhat friendly, but more standoffish arrogance then anything else. Get over yourself girls, you make coffee at a coffee shop, so how you treat the customer will determine if they return. In our case? We will not make the trip. That brings me to my second factor. Location. Not the best location to start with so if you intend to attract customers from other areas like Trinity, Odessa, Tarpon Springs, you better bring your A game and your service is your G or H game. The surrounding area is also not exactly one that makes you feel safe, with a trio of fighting drunk homeless folks on the corner in front doesn't help. The products (coffee and donuts) are average at best, despite the girl behind the counter bragging how she came from Starbucks and can make anything, and better. The price for two cups of coffee and two donuts was $15.00 which is way too high, so start adjusting down or you will find a drop in revenues. If you are in the area, it's worth a stop just to see the White House Oval Office replica.

I like cake. I really like cake. I love frosting. I really love frosting in fact I usally buy a can of frosting keep it in the pantry and when the craving hits use a spoon and go for it-. I have had cupcakes all over since the cupcake rage too place, magnolia, sweet bettys' etc etc,, I was excited another cupcake place its my only sugary treat I indulge in so I was dissapointed in the days of the week here are the cupcake choices ( I live an hour a way) so that made me dissapointed but I understand the marketing concept. I tried the texas milk chocolate- it was okay- and too much frosting even for a frosting freak like me- I wont be going back though as there are better cupcakes out there at that price point-

Eh. It was just ok. While visiting Tampa some friends and I met up here for brunch. Walking in I was excited by the decor. Ut was welcoming, open, trendy, clean... and the food presentation was nice but the food definitely missed the mark. It was just ok. Nothing to write home about. I had the eggs Benedict florentine with grits. It was good but just good. I enjoyed being in the restaurant more than the food. Price for quality is ok. Prices weren't bad and the amount of food is good. Good place for a meetup but if you're looking for delicious breakfast ‍

This place is really cute, has a great retro vibe, and is in the heart of old city - it's a true philly staple. I've had the honeycomb ice cream (yum) and the blackberry ice cream (double yum). The space isn't huge, and you should expect a wait if it's hot out (I've had to wait around the block before). The service is really friendly, and the ice cream is really good. They have a lot of offerings, but they're not cheap. And don't forget to bring cash!

Bosnian food?? --- location. This is a HIDDEN GEM. I guarantee that most of you have driven by this a million times and never realized it. I was actively looking for it, and still passed it...all you see is a sign, but the restaurant is tucked away. +++ appetizer. I went with the tzatziki and avjar. It's a half and half dish that you dip (and swipe) your bread. The blend meshes so damn well...the bread is a little hard...so if you have some dental issues, this could cause some problems. + / - entree. Stuffed Cabbage, Paprika chicken: these dishes were weird, but I highly recommend mixing your tzatziki and avjar in with your rice. The paprika chicken was cooked well, BUT, the sauce reminded me of eating spaghetti O's. +++ dessert. I got the Bosnian shortbread and baklava. The shortbread is DRENCHED in honey and it is a top 10 dessert...of...all...time. The baklava is damn good too, but I've had too much during my time in Greece, but I had to try it +++ the staff. The chef even comes out and busses tables, greets customers, and even hands out candy bars. I'm sure owners care about their business, but when the chef himself comes out and is a part of the team, this is what boosted this review to 5 stars. Besides the entrees, everything was phenomenal. I'm not going to let my weird tasting entrees keep this from sub-5 star...I would definitely come back and try another dish!!

Fiddlehead Fern Cafe keeps getting better and better. The pastries are incredible, especially the danish with chives, the cinnamon Brie danish, and the fig and goat cheese croissant. My family has become addicted to these treats. We also appreciate how careful the owners have been to protect their customers and staff safe during Covid.

Interesting concept for a taco place. Build your own tacos. I liked all the choices they had and had fun choosing all of my taco components. Not gonna lie though, my first time there I did NOT put the right ingredients together. I did much better the second time. I really liked the Ju-ju taco shell which was the same concept as a Taco Bell double decker taco, but this was much, much better. I also had the firecracker shell, which again reminded of a Taco Bell item. Doritos locos taco anyone? This again was much better than Taco Bell. I was disappointed that there are no plain soft corn tortillas listed as a choice, especially in this gluten-free loving world we live in, but I'm pretty sure they have them if you just ask. I got cilantro and onions on most of my stuff and it was mostly onions with a touch of cilantro. I liked the jicama cabbage slaw better. My favorite protein was the shrimp. The ghost pepper marinated steak was good but the spicy-ness wasn't anything to write home about. I also tried the taco bowl with the ghost pepper steak, queso fresco, chipotle crema and salsa roja. It tasted good, but it was served cold which I didn't like. And with all that spicy stuff on there, I still didn't find myself reaching for any water. Drinks were good except for the skinny margarita. I wanted something with just the lime juice and tequila and not so much sugar. I should have known that something "skinny" would taste bad. It was also in a skinnier glass so you're getting less volume than the regular margarita. Regular pitcher of margaritas was pretty darn good though. Loud, good for groups, not good for kids, interesting atmosphere.

Located in Laclede's Landing, Kimchi Guys brings Korean fried chicken to STL, which is prevalent in other big cities (NYC, LA, etc.), and I feel that they make a good version of it. This is what made me visit Laclede's Landing with my friends, which was an interesting area nearby the Arch. It is better to find street parking if you just wanted to eat there as most of the parking (expensive) in the area is catered for visitors to see the Arch. Their chicken is double fried to give a crunchy exterior with juicy chicken inside. In terms of the sauce, I got the Spicy Original, which had spicy, tangy, and sweet flavors all wrapped into sauce. I feel that it is one of the best sauces that I've tried with fried chicken. I really enjoyed this dish a lot and it makes me look forward to try the other flavors that they have on offer. I thought the side that I got (the kimchi fried rice) was alright (and likely been made beforehand for a while as it was softer than other fried rice that I've tried). The waffle fries were good (had that seasoned exterior like Jack in the Box curly fries). They do have the radish kimchi, which is the classic condiment to Korean fried chicken. Overall, Kimchi Guys is a great addition to the downtown/Laclede's Landing area and should be one to try if you're in that area. tl;dr: great fried chicken, okay kimchi fried rice, try to find street parking as closer parking can be expensive.

First time in today which happened to be on Mother's Day at around 10AM! Whoops big mistake! Didn't check the TIPS where someone wrote a tip that they're ALWAYS busy on Sunday's and to get there before 9AM! I can't imagine how much crazier it was today because it was Sunday + Mother's Day. We were seated at the bar after about 30 minutes (with parties of 6, 8 & 10 before us) and I thought they tried to be as accommodating as possible because it seemed like there was a LOT of large groups. As for the food I thought it was great! My boyfriend and I both got the specials for the day. I had a "Mimosa French Toast", champagne battered Texas toast stuffed with orange zest and a strawberry coulis on top. They were very generous with the coulis so bonus points for that! I felt like it could have used some whipped cream + I'm not super fond of the Texas French toast version. I thought it was good, loved the decor and ambiance. Service was as quick as can be for being swamped. Overall I would definitely return!

Besides it being super busy often, usually, I really like this location. The employees are friendly and they make the hot matcha green tea well (which is not consistently the case for all locations). However, lately my grande orders have been kind of skeet. Maybe only 3/4th of the way full. I don't typically make a big deal about it when it happens here and there but it's starting to become a trend and we all know Starbucks isn't cheap. Still a hopeful customer for now, though!

Porta, Porta, Porta, one of my new FAVORITE spots to go to during the week! I have been obsessed with Porta Pizza. I have been there a lot this past summer and I can't get enough! They surprise me every time I come in for dinner or drinks. Porta has a very rustic appearance with bright lights and music that intrigue you to go in. I have been here several times for dinner and drinks. Porta's pizza is fantastic. I seriously cannot get enough. Some of the pizzas I have tried is the Carbonara Pizza, Margherita, Festivus, 14 & a half pizza, House Party, and Chenzino pizza. I have clearly tried too many of the pizzas on the menu but they are all excellent. I think the Carbonara pizza is still my all time favorite, but you won't be disappointed with any of the pizzas on the menu. The appetizers are also very good. I am a huge fan of the Many-Thanks Sliders and Meatball Sliders. Some of the other times that I have been to Porta were for the drinks. This summer they are doing The Twice is Right Tuesday's. Every Tuesday you can enjoy a bar crawl to four different bars in Porta Pizza and another connecting bar. At the end of the night, once you have you have all four punches in your punch card, you have a chance to win a prize! Some prizes include gift cards, free drinks, etc. I had a lot of fun during the bar crawl and met a lot of new people. Lastly, Porta just opened up the top Mezzanine. At the mezzanine, you can enjoy a great view overlooking Porta pizza, sit at the bar and listen to the DJ while enjoy some amazing artwork that is up there. I think Porta is a great option to go to any time of the week. They have so much to offer!

I visited with this doctor a couple of month ago and I didn't have had a good experience. He was very rude, impatience and treated me in a denigrating way. He accused me of lying because he asked me if I had lip filler done before and I told him I hadn't. He looked at my body and just told me there is nothing he could do but suggested I should do work on my face for $28K. I am 56 years old female, I weigh 147 lbs and I am 5'11 tall. I think he could have treated me more with respect instead of making me uncomfortable including with all the staff in the room. I hear a lot of stories about him how he's treating women unpleasant. I will never go back, that's for sure!

The chicken wings were crispy, despite being covered in a super delicious spicy Korean BBQ sauce, and the meat was "fall off the bone" tender and juicy. This type of "perfectly fried" chicken is tough to come by anywhere, so I highly recommend that no matter what else you order off the menu, you add a serving of their fried chicken, because it's genuinely phenomenal. The sauce had just the right balance of heat, sweetness and tang. We got Original! The big surprise out of the meal was the waffle fries. I kid you not- these were hands down, the BEST waffle fries I've ever had anywhere. They were perfectly done - not mushy or greasy - just perfectly crisp and cooked evenly throughout. Lots of great flavor and texture there. Of course, I had to get a Bibimbap bowl to try their Kimchi. It had a very fresh, "clean" flavor to it and went well with everything else in the bowl. Super delicious - you won't be disappointed. Kimchi Guys is tucked a little out of the way, but it was worth the trip! Staff was also super friendly, fun and super helpful with their suggestions and recommendations. Loved the interior design as well. Will definitely return.

The box lunch is my favorite take out lunch, and it is very reasonably priced. For $9, I get salad with their delicious ginger carrot dressing, salmon terriyaki and a fresh california roll, plus all the stuff you need to eat those things, including a few slivers of fresh ginger. We eat here frequently and don't always find the service to be as good as the food, but they seem to be trying harder.

Incredible and amazing. We always come here when we are in Philly. Get the fish hotpot it is what they are known for. Other really good spicy delicacies too. A little pricey because the fish is big and fresh, but cost per person goes down with a group, so come with a group! Sometimes hard to find parking in Chinatown, but often a good spot on a side street or nearby parking garage.

Snotty front desk person. Felt like they looked for any chance to overcharge and upsell. Lashes look bad, too long, spotty coverage, cartoonish. They were way longer than I had requested. Clumps of lashes began falling out in the first 24 hours. They have refused to give a refund. Not happy with result. Not happy with customer service

Lotus is a Vietnamese cuisine restaurant adjusted to be vegan, and I'm pumped about that idea. They offer so many compassionate delicious options that are completely satisfying. I've been craving for a cup of wonton soup for loooong since I decided to make more compassionate and greener choices , and there it was - hot very rich broth with delicious wonton, awesome healthy comfort food. Fried rice and mozzarella sticks didn't disappoint either. They also have a nice selection of desserts, but I was too full and just promised myself to come back for them later.

I brought my vehicle in for inspection & an oil change. The staff was very professional & courteous. Social distancing & sanitizing was in effect. They went by appointment so my service moved quickly. The waiting area was clean as well. There are vending machines available if you need a snack or something to drink. They did close off the coffee area because of the pandemic so you may want to bring a coffee if that's your thing. My daughter & I have purchased several vehicles from this location so of course...We'll be back!!

Originally gave this a 4 star, but I knew I would change it once I tried the pizza and today I did that. I ordered the Grandmom pizza and it was fantastic, easily the best pizza in Delaware. You could really taste the freshness with the basil, mozzarella, sauce. Crust was perfect as well, with a good cook underneath. Other items I've tried are the steak stromboli, which is fantastic. Italian wedding soup is good as well. Overall a great restaurant, many different things to choose from. You have pasta, pizza, hoagies, strombolis etc. Highly recommend traveling here to try it. I drove 30 minutes to try it and it was well worth it. Will definitely be back, and cant recommend giving this place or SitalyToGo a try enough.

I was hesitant to try out La Margarita thinking it wouLD be super flashy without a lot of character. I was quickly proven incorrect when I tried their house made salsas, scratch made blue corn tortillas, and guac. Their margaritas are some of the very best in town and the view from from the patio is gorgeous. It's no wonder there's always a wait to be seated. La Margarita is a hot spot with good reason.

I have been a regular of Tony's and the previous bar for sometime. This is a unique place, a dichotomy of sorts. It serves everyone well. During the days, it's a local hangout from wealthy business people to construction workers. This is one of the great things; everyone gets along. Days on the patio, you can find kids playing Jenga, guys hanging out smoking cigars or women meeting after tennis and couple and their dog, having a beer. Yes, they are dog friendly. It's a testament of Tony having been in the business here locally for years. At night, we'll then it becomes a mix of young people from all over listening to DJ music and overtaking the patio, enjoying the night through of a large garage door. It can be crowded, so arrive before 9. The service is always great and they sling drinks even when packed effectively. The food, for bar food is exceptional. Raul who has been around for years, much of it in fine dining, has elevated the bar food with a flair. You can have specialty burgers, taco Tuesday and awesome guacamole then finish it up with fried Oreos. Tony has pulled it all together in a place you can feel at home at anytime.

Where do i begin. Overall the food was fine. I think this place and management needs to invest on their workers and get them trained a little more. Came in and got seated. Our waitress comes and asks for drinks and we ask for orange juice and water. Water comes but no orange juice. I ask them to substitute one the sausage and upgrade it to the large sausage and didnt get it. They eventually bring it and end up charging me extra FULL price not the upgrade price. Orange juice eventually comes after asking them for a second time and our waitress was super overwhelmed. She was not very professional in a sense she would talk with an attitude and yell across the diner. Honestly, if management just spent a little more time training and working on the employees' communication and other skills for this service I think this place would do fine. Until then, I will try another place.

We are huge Retreat fans! One of my favorite times to go is brunch time! Since our first visit, it quickly became a staple for us and our friends. It is definitely a Saint Louis restaurant I am proud to bring visitors to. The space and design is so comfortable and relaxing; the hospitality is always on point. From the kale caesar to salmon dishes, they have such a unique approach to making classic dishes really fun and interesting. Let's talk about drinks... I am totally a fan of their Mezcal Paloma in all its citrusy-smokey goodness, but that's usually a brunch choice. If it's happy hour or evening, you'll find me with either a Oaxaca Flocka Flame (can't quit you, mezcal), a Golden State, or a Full House. So many good options. You have to check out their amazing local craft beer list. Truly one of the best lists in town, with exceptional sour options. Now onto my favorite dishes...The market fish is always a win. Mac & Cheese is uh-mazing. My wife loves their chicken sandwich. Also, get the rice bowl and add chicken! You won't regret it. Generally speaking, we always have a great time here, whether its a date or we are with friends. We're back every couple of weeks!

Just $5 every SUNDAY in October! Do it! Oh, my my my. I gasped w/ each step into the 19 glass exhibits-- 9 national ones on the 1st floor & 10 international exhibits on the 2nd floor. There's even a social distancing theater on the 2nd floor; it showcases a "Meet the Artist" series. (I sat thru 3 autobiographies.) Each artist tells his/her story & shows how s/he creates such magnificent pieces. Just wonderful! I could be locked in this gallery forever & still be happy. This is an incredible museum for anyone who appreciates contemporary art-- most especially glass art. It opened w/ 500 pieces on October 1, 2018. It now showcases 1,500+ glass displays from over 9+ countries. Most are breathtaking. I want to return again & again & again..........& AGAIN! (I took pics of my favorites, although I LOVED nearly all of them.) Admission is $15 for adults; $13 for seniors (age 65+); $13 for military (w/ ID); $10 for college students (w/ ID), $10 for kids age 7- 28, FREE for those under age 7, FREE for members, & visitors pay just $5 on Thursdays from 5 - 8 PM. Phone or look online for the OCTOBER SPECIALS! There is parking in front of the museum along w/ additional parking behind the building. Born in Virginia, gallery owner Trish Duggan's goals are to "inspire, uplift, & educate." She dedicates her museum to the Contemporary Studio Glass Movement. The gallery offers no designated area for Florida glassmiths, although the museum does have a handful of Sunshine State gaffers scattered throughout. The lone disappointment I had w/ this wonderful museum is that the woman responsible today for getting visitors started on their self-journey did not appear to know much about the museum or its displays & artists; that was unfortunate. Upon entering the business, you'll be treated to the lobby which holds the work of one artist (Karen Lamonte-- floating kimono series), along w/ a check-in area & a gift shop; the shop offers jewelry, bowls, vases, nightlights, books, kids discovery toy & art kits, along w/ other glass & glass-related items. Prices are standard for this type of gift shop-- definitely not inexpensive, although there are some lower-priced items, especially for children-- see pics. There's also a donation box. Masks, gloves, & hand santitizer are available (free). I will return...SOON. I'll bring along a tent & s'mores if they'll let me. This museum is truly I*N*C*R*E*D*I*B*L*E.

Please come hungry!!!! Every time I've been in I've never been disappointed. The mimosas are perfect and I can never seem to order just one. My go to are the eggs Benedict's served on soft fluffy biscuits. The portions are generous and filling.

I decided to try this place out after Christmas to beat the crowd. It's definitely the perfect pop-up bar for the holidays, despite its small size. Not only does it have cute photo opportunities but there are holiday-themed cocktails and so many beautiful Christmas decorations. When we went there was a 5$ cover charge which we were not expecting since the "Nightmare Before Tinsel" pop-up did not have any cover. If you are looking for a Christmas spirited bar then the 5$ is worth it. The drinks, on the other hand, are overpriced and you're better off taking your pictures and just ordering a drink not on the cocktail menu.

I'm so sad that this Pho Hoa closed during COVID. Another pho restaurant opened at it's location. I haven't been yet but my Aunt says it's not the same. I really miss the Banh Mi and Pho combo. This combo is impossible to find at other pho restaurants.

My secret to finding good food often starts by just seeing how long the line at the restaurant. Barrio Bread take this to a new level, with locals lining up almost an hour early on a Saturday morning to be able to pick up this bread. And regardless of how long you wait, it is still worth it! Even if you don't get the bread you originally wanted because you just can't go wrong with whatever you order. I have been multiple times and have enjoyed whatever I have picked up. These breads make a fantastic pickup for any dinner and will impress as a gift to others. My personal favorites are the Cinnamon Raisin and the Heritage loaves. I've probably bought 10 different loaves of bread from them and have never been disappointed. A MUST visit while in Tucson. Nothing beats the locally made bread.

5 stars for the Bonte waffle, 3 stars for this location. It's amazing they can get away with putting crack in their waffles but they do, at least that's what it must be because it was so addictive and delicious that even when I was full I wanted another. No syrup is nessassary for these bundles of joy that can be enjoyed on the run on while you're sitting there. For those who haven't been to a Bonte they mix whatever you want into the batter (everything is fresh) and roll it in sugary bits before putting it in the waffle machine. The prices are pretty reasonable and though they don't have a huge selection outside of the waffles they are good enough to sustain Bonte on their own. This location, outside of being tiny has problems keeping basic things in stock like fruit for their waffles and knifes (both of which are common items you need for a lot of the options here). I don't know how they let those kind of things run out, poor management I guess.

South Street Diner isn't the best of Philly Diners. but It's always the house of some good memories. Back when I used to be big on Industrial music my friends and I would come here for a 2 AM breakfast fix after a night at the club. all the locals would give us confused looks that were monumental. I've had family live on South Street for many years now. so going here has been a must 24/7. not for the food, not for the service (which is actually pretty damn good on most nights). but simply for the tradition of catching up with old friends and reliving some good moments over coffee and a warm plate of eggs. and when it comes to doing so this place is the best.

When I first heard that the Peace A Pizza (https://www.yelp.com/biz/peace-a-pizza-ardmore-2) were embracing the fast casual movement and making custom pies possible faster than ever before, I loved the idea. Especially when I found out that they were opening a Philly location in the spot that used to house my beloved burger joint 500 Degrees (https://www.yelp.com/biz/500-degrees-philadelphia-3). And after a couple of visits I can say that I'm happy with the end result overall. Ultimately I give 4 stars because there's another nearby fast casual pizza joint that delivers pies slightly better (&Pizza review coming later). I also find the huge wooden serving blocks that they give you when you order in to be kind of awkward to handle, especially when you come in during a lunch or dinner rush. But when it comes down to it I'm impressed with the number of specialty pies, grain bowls, and salads that they're able to dish out, and liked the selection of New Hope fountain sodas that you were able to grab with free refills. For my first visit I ordered the appropriately named Kennett Square, a delicious pie that didn't disappoint with its medley of local roasted mushrooms, crumbled goat cheese, herb butter, and shredded mozzarella. For my second visit I was craving meat, and got it with a trio of pepperoni, sweet Italian sausage, and veal meatballs on their Sweet n' Slow pie! Add in plenty of customization options, and a free glass of wine during their Wine Wednesdays, and you have a solid spot!

Ok, I have to say, after living on this block for 4 months and passing by this place I finally walked in on a whim today for lunch with friends because it was so convenient. One of my crew immediately noticed that there were no lunch specials (odd for a Japanese restaurant not to have bento lunches of some kind no?) so there was the motion to leave immediately after sitting down. A couple of us were not in the mood to move, so we did not second the motion. Alas...here is the scoop: The fish was good but a few of our pieces of sashimi were icy (not a good thing yeah, since sashimi should not be frozen). This was the tiniest sashimi I have ever had in my entire life. I'm talking really thin and really small. Like toddler size bites. The (spider, spicy tuna, rainbow) rolls were basically ok, nothing near fantastic. 2 of the 3 rolls were webbed with a sauce, and, I would suggest, the abundant criss-cross with mayo-based sauce was excessive and simply decorative--it actually took away from the taste of the rolls. Looking at the menu, I was ok with the prices. But, given the size of the portions, I would suggest that this was way overpriced. I mean, I did not leave hungry but became so pretty quickly. I've given this $$$ because the portions were so small I would need to spend that much to feel satisfied.

I enjoy the atmosphere so much, as an employee the establishment really cares about the welfare and safety of the staff and all the customers. It's more of a high end place of business when it comes to the experience of exotic dancing. All the dancers are stunning with sooo much abilities to entice your wildest desires

My favorite place to pick up sports supplements. They have everything you need and always have top of the line products that help me in the gym get the results I need. Staff is always amazing! They are always there to help and point you in the right direction to get what you need for what your fitness goals are. Also great Smoothies too for recovery!!

Mitchel was very professional, timely, and reliable throughout his work for us. We had experienced a power surge from the electrical transformer down the street that blew out the electrical panel on our furnace. C&L explained the diagnostic process in a clear and concise manner and arranged to get the replacement parts the next day! I would definitely recommend this company to anyone in need of HVAC services and I have added them to my short list of "go to services" with the other skilled trades people necessary to take care of our house that was originally built in 1926!

I ordered a half rack of Pork Ribs (a la carte) and it was delicious. Meat was tender, had a great smokey taste, and 2 bbq sauces to choose from. I haven't tried the other food yet, but also looked good as well. I will come back again.

On the recommendation of a friend who knew I loved Philly Cheesesteaks, Cindi and I ate at the New York Richie's in Enterprise, Oregon a few years ago. My friend was right - the cheesesteaks were among the best we've had outside of Philly and New York, and we were disappointed to find the next time we visited Enterprise that New York Richie's had closed that location. So you can imagine my excitement when Cindi called me on the way home from work one evening a few weeks ago to tell me there was a New York Richie's sign at the old Round Table / Atza pizza location on Glenwood Street across from Hawks Stadium. According to some posts on the Oregon New York Richie's Facebook page, there was no business connection between the Idaho and Oregon New York Richie's locations, but the food would be the same. We stopped in today, their second day of business, to see just how close the food came to what we had enjoyed so much in Enterprise. I'm happy to report that we were not disappointed. The cheesesteaks were as good as we remembered - the meat was tender and flavorful, with just the right amount of grilled onions, roasted red peppers, mushrooms, and Swiss and provolone cheeses. The bread was fresh and chewy, as good as we've had in Philly, if a little smaller in diameter than authentic Philly steaks. The fries were crispy and well seasoned, and included Richie's trademark chipotle fry sauce. While we were eating, we saw a monster 20" thin crust cheese pizza make its way to the next table, and made a mental note that we had to try the pizza on our next visit. Our only disappointments: First, the price. At $8.95 for a sandwich with no fries, Richie's is charging $2-3 more than Philly prices for their steaks. (In fairness, the pizza prices seemed very reasonable, starting at $16.50 for the 20" cheese pizza.) Secondly, any place that claims to serve genuine Philly cheesesteaks needs to have Cheez Whiz available as a topping option. But all in all, we're happy as can be to finally have a real cheesesteak available in Boise.

I compete in Jiu-Jitsu and every competition I feel confident in my ability to outperform my competition. I believe that is due to my consistent great instruction and direction from my instructor Lane Andrews. Whether you are a beginner like myself 6 years ago or high level looking to up your game you will get what you need here. They consistently have multiple black belts on the mat for you to test your skills. They have also developed a great training environment filled with respect. My son and my daughter also train under John Ortalani who has an amazing demeanor with children and they continue to improve and love the sport.

Food was great (lots of gluten-free options!!! - I know this is standard for a Cuban place but still pretty sweet). Service was on point. The place is small so be sure to make your reservations. BYOB was key for a reasonably priced gals dinner out. I'll be coming back. The veggie tacos were outstanding and I can't wait to have them again!

I have been to this place a few times, for lunch buffet and for dinner. I would definitely recommend coming here for dinner because the menu provides a ton of options and they are delicious. They have several types of naan and traditional Northern Indian dishes with veggies or meats. I never tried the Indo-Chinese section of the menu - just didn't feel like that would fit in well for some reason.. The dishes I have tried are always rather flavorful with those spices and delicious. For lunch buffet though, I wouldn't rave about it as they are your usual Indian restaurant buffet food. The selections were somewhat narrower compared to other places.. The quality is not as good as the dishes you get for dinner - smaller plates make a big difference. Overall, I'd recommend going for dinner, even better, with a group..

One of my favorite restaurants in Santa Barbara. The ONLY reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because I think its sister restaurant -- R+D Kitchen in Newport Beach is better. Honor Bar has outdoor seating with tables that have built-in heaters to keep your toes warm on cool days & nights. I love Ding's Crispy Chicken and my husband loves the Rueben, the French Dip, and the burger. I also adore their Veggie Club. It's packed with feta, avocado, Persian cucumbers and pickled onions. It is filling. Five stars for consistent food and service. Great place to sip a beer, eat appetizers or a meal and watch the locals walk by. It's quiet outside especially for late lunches 2-4pm. Street parking or a garage just around the corner from the restaurant. Also good for doggies!

Sat at the bar for 10 minutes and didn't get served at all. There were only 4 other people at the bar. The bartender was no where to be found. For having 90 taps, they lack a good selection of IPA's.

Our waiter was good but a bit rushed. I didn't like that. Then when we were waiting for our food to come to the table we played the little computer trivia game but didn't find out till we went to pay our bill that there was a $2.00 entertainment charge added to our bill for playing the trivia game. It totally sent us out the door feeling ripped off and never wanting to go back again.

The supper club is ridiculously expensive. So, we went downstairs to the honky tonk and the house wine was $17. That's outrageous but the band was incredible. Go to the bathroom and you have to share with the men. I despise sharing bathrooms with men. It's so "woke". Won't be back just because of their ridiculous choice on the "woke" bathrooms. Something tells me that Yelp won't allow this post.

I've been to the other Federal Donuts location multiple times. I love donuts, and coffee and this place does both very well. The South Philly location is so small, and I often find myself cramped while in there. However, the donuts are always amazing, which keeps me coming back for more and more. I recently visited the Center City location - and found that they had a better handle on crowd control, which I appreciated. The donuts were just as good as what I had tried in the past - specifically, I had the green tea sesame which I could have bathed in vats of. I ate all the little crumbly pieces that had fallen off into the bag when I got home. That's how good they are. Both hot and fancy, really in any variety are always amazing. Try them all!

The worst. Wish I had read all the other reviews below before I went. Car came out dirty and the guys drying it were a joke. They literally just took their rags and hit at the car- not wiping it at all. Car had big dirty marks on it -especially across back bumper. When they were "done" (when did they ever really start?) I grabbed a rag from the bin and wiped the dirt off. I told the guys "Really - where is your work ethic" and they just watched me with an "I could care less attitude on their face" as they sat there doing nothing since there were no other cars coming out yet. I put my tip back in my wallet and I've learned my lesson... Not going there again.

Here's your Starbucks alternative, don't get me wrong I'm a card carrying member of Starbucks, that's quaint and chilled. They play GREAT old school soul music that provides a welcoming vibe. It's a bit off the beaten path but that mean it probably won't get huge crowds. This is a spot most tourist will miss which is also a good thing. Ben's a great host too boot!

*Later Yelp* I've only been here once, but I love this place mainly for the atmosphere. It just has a cool, swanky vibe. The food is pretty good too. I had the lamb chops, uzuu lemon cheesecake for dessert and a lychee martini, I believe. All were pretty good...although the lamb may have been a bit too salty. I remember the service being satisfactory as well.

My sister and I went on the ghost tour with Theresa. Our group was really small (6 people), probably because it was a Tuesday night and it was also pretty cold out. That was fine by me as we didn't have to squeeze against each other on the sidewalk or crane our necks to hear what Theresa was saying. Theresa was an awesome guide. She knows her stuff and had a really positive attitude and fun personality. (Our group consisted of kind of "blah" people who didn't show any enthusiasm or ask questions, so extra points to her for staying upbeat!) Also, I feel like it's worth mentioning that I am a total skeptic when it comes to haunted/ghost stuff. This tour didn't change my mind or anything, but I still found it really interesting and enjoyable!

Philly has become a dangerous place with the most murders per capita than any other big city. 2,300 shot last year. 94 car jackings in 2022 already. Not unexpected when the police have been defunded by 33 million. That said, my daughter and her friends still wanted to go to the Fillmore for a concert. College kids always think they're invincible. So, that they wouldn't have to park and walk around, my wife and I dropped them all off and we drove over to Rivers, which was just a few blocks away. It's very different compared to AC casinos. Not a hotel. More of a big sports bar with gaming. TVs Everywhere. FREE PARKING! Local Philly business killing laws requires proof of vax and ID to get in. So, like all Philly restaurants, which are suffering greatly, Rivers was pretty empty. I guess the locals listened when Kamala in 2020, said she wouldn't get the vaccine. Maybe Philadelphians are all going to AC. Less restrictions. The staff was great. Dinner at Jacks bar and grill was OK. Only 3 restaurants where open. Oddly, there was an Asian gaming section. Signs directed one to the Asian section. A private business has a right to do what they want, but could you imagine the outrage if there was a Caucasian section with only white dealers, white croupiers, white pit bosses and white waitresses? They had a band playing near the main bar, which was nice. Oh, driving through Philly, never saw one cop or cop car.

So I've belonged to a gym for YEARS and I finallly learned something - you can't just pay your dues, you actually have to go in order to get in shape! Seriously, I did belong to a gym and would occasionally go but I never knew how to use most of the equipment. The gym rats would scowl if you asked them a question so I would usually just stick with the eliptical.However, it is way different at KoKo Fit Club!!! You stay on one machine the entire time and the computer guides you through all the various exercises - ANY ONE CAN DO THIS! They have made exercise simple and fun. Not to mention the program is designed to be in and out in 30 minutes! If you're curious to see how it works, you can go in for 1 free session to give it a try.

I am glad they have nondairy options, although im not lactose intolerant. friend got maple walnut which was robust and delicious as well! fun ice cream shop to chill!

Just average Thai food tonight. Bangkok has always been my go to for Thai food but not anymore. We ordered the eggplant, the basil, and the combination noodles. All 3 dishes had the same watery sauce, red and green bell pepper and onion; tiny pieces of eggplant, almost zero basil, or noodle to make each dish different from the other. The stuffed chicken wing appetizer was not a favorite either. The sizzling platter was disappointing too with not enough spinach. It was so good in the past. Unfortunately short cuts and are being made. Plus they overcharged us by charging for 2 sizzling platters when we ordered 1. When this was supposedly corrected the total bill came out to be $10 less. How does this make sense??? Did I still pay tax for 2nd sizzling platter? And shouldn't half of $27 be less $13.50 not $10? I don't think I'll be returning any time soon.

This gym gets the job done. Upsides: Childcare is included in the membership! The pool is well designed for lap swimmers! The showers are HOT and they have soap at each station. They appear to provide towels (Not sure exactly about this) The Spa is plenty hot They appear to have most of the machines you'd want for lifting weights Staff is friendly Downsides: The lockers are rusted out (All of them) The tops of the lockers are coated in dust (All of them) The steam room isn't very hot, nor was it clean (18+ only) The spa doesn't allow anyone under 18 in it (see freezing children cold from the pool) The showers are in the hallway that everyone has to travel to reach the pool The floors are visibly dirty (even in the mandatory feet only area's) This is an older facility. It feels old in its design and function. Millennial types will likely abhor its lack of privacy in the locker rooms. But when it comes down to it, everything you need is here and with a little effort on your part it can be great (see clean).

Great gym. Was in Indy for 4 days on business and the local hotel gym just did not meet my needs. Cavin sold me a very reasonable 3-day gym pass, that I could use at any time in my visit to Indy. I could come and go as I pleased--- and to top off the great customer service, Cavin personally delivered by Access Key to the hotel, so it was there when I checked in. Talk about service!

This is a good pizza option - they deliver through GrubHub and a few other services. I use the 3 star/ A-OK rating because we live in Philadelphia and the pizza scene here is strong. Would I order from Slice again? Yes. Would I go out of my way to do so? No. With that said, I ordered four pies for a work lunch - a cheese, a sausage, a meatball, and a Pizza Bruschetta. The Pizza Bruschetta was the clear winner - everyone loved it. Their meatball pizza was also very tasty, but the meatballs looked dry which threw me off for a minute. They use a thinner crust, so you can eat more pizza....or at least that's the excuse I'm going to use for the number of slices I had. So, all in all, give it a try if you're nearby or need delivery in the Rittenhouse Square area. Doooo it.

Don't misinterpret my 5-star review....I don't think Wendy's is a good substitute for the amazing family-owned restaurants located in the area. The 5 stars is solely related to the fact that this is the BEST Wendy's I have ever been to. When I'm super lazy (which is most days), I go through the drive thru for a quick dinner on my ride home. No matter how many cars are in the drive thru lane, they seem to process them like a machine. The staff are always friendly and my food comes out hot. A few weeks ago, I decided to venture inside. It felt like I had landed in outer space. I have NEVER seen such a fancy Wendy's. There is a two-sided fireplace with four upholstered chairs on one side. They also have TV, free wifi, and a soda machine that makes 100s of sodas. I most certainly will continue to visit this Wendy's. One of the best (if not the best) Wendy's I have ever been to.

The front desk staff is very good and they have a couple quality trainers. The management for all departments is extremely lacking. I was having a problem with my membership and the club manager ether didn't know how to fix it or didn't want to. It is still not fixed even though I have been in there many times. Her name is Jessica Collins and she is the most incompetent manager I have ever seen in an establishment; who does not care about members.

It is very rare for a restaurant to be this good in all categories, food, ambience and service. If you go to Lark you will not be disappointed. The cocktails were excellent and the food was delicious . Our waitress was attentive and friendly. All this made for a perfect meal and a perfect birthday dinner for me. Hats off to the chef.

Good, maybe very good. I went for lunch, so the head chef wasn't there, so this review may be a bit biased. I see Marhaba as a 3.5-star eatery, but I'll round up due to the dearth of Lebanese/Egyptian food in the area, and I did not have the owner/head chef present, so I'm sure things would be ticked up a half point were he available in the kitchen. First off, the location is kind of cool off the river, but the restaurant is small on the borderline annoying side. Tables are quite close together. There were only about three other tables occupied when we went for lunch, and one server covered the whole shift. There was one young guy as a chef working the kitchen. He seemed good, but I didn't get the sense that the dishes were special as if the owner were present. Someone with some background and skill put together this wonderful menu. Service is chillax in a good way. My DP and I sampled a few things off the menu and found everything good, but there were no wows per se (i.e. not a 5-star eatery). Marhaba does its own take on a number of Lebanese dishes, but still have a lot of core items and dipping sauces, which I liked very much. The portions are large, which the menu mentions. I found them overly large, tbh. Here's what I had: Kaffa Brad - they serve this freshly puffed, and it's quite good. I'm used to it being served with hummus or salatim, which wasn't the case here. It was just a stack of very good bread. I think a lot of people would like this though. Lentil Soup with Fried Onions - Very rich, tasty dish. I liked the spices and they added some heat. The fried onions added a savory element and a different texture, although once they soaked up the soup they lost their crispness. Chicken Schwarma Platter - So good. Chicken was tender and well spiced and a very large portion to boot. I thought the yellow saffron rice was too flavorful and crowded out some of the chicken flair. I'm used to the chicken being served a top white basmati rice, which may flow together a bit more naturally. The side Mediterranean salad was nice and bright, although I'm not as big on olive oil as most. The chicken schwarma came with two sauces, tahini and a garlic, very classic. I added their famous green hot sauce since I'm a sucker for some kick. All were great and tasted homemade. My DP got the lamb gyro, which was tasty, very meaty and came on a fresh pita. He had some sauce envy, however, when he saw my accompaniments. Next time I might try the lamb chops or lamb kebab to see how juicy they push their proteins. One other note, try not to sit by the door in the winter, as the draft can be cumbersome. Prices are inexpensive. It's BYOB.

This spot offers a great, affordable east weekend paddle. They hooked us up quickly and sent us and the dog on our way in our canoe with a map that looks like it was drawn by a 5 year old but that's OK since the route is basically foolproof. We saw gators (eek!), tons of birds and turtles of all sizes. Pro tip: bring a cooler with booze for the paddle and lunch for the picnic table rest stop!

This Home Depot won me over when I needed to get a lot of demential lumber. It seems that the warped, bowed, and cracked ones are taken out often enough, and put into the cull lumber pile. It matters when each piece you need is $20! I am more prone to buy because returns have been relatively quick, and easy for me. Customer service is awake and alert! This store is good in most departments, but not all. I go here before stopping at it's neighboring competitor.

For when I'm feeling like ignoring my calorie-counting, and indulging in a flavor blowout, Sauce On the Side has become one of my favorite DoorDash delights. So! These are the best calzones, hands down, t hat I've ever eaten. Crust is flavorful and baked to that golden-brown, crispy-chewy perfection that satisfies the soul. And there isn't *too much* of it -- it's always perfectly filled, to every single corner, with melty, gooey, cheesy goodness. It comes with a variety of truly homemade-tasting sauces, all of which I'd be proud to have made myself, from the simple garlic butter to the roasted-tomato smoky goodness of the thick red sauce. But the standout, here, is the fillings. Creative and epic combinations, combining sweet and savory, spicy and creamy, rich and fresh and smoky... again, these are characteristics I seek in my own kitchen, my own recipes, which I take a great deal of pride in. So! Last night His Goatness and I binged on the Carmen, the Figgy Piggy, and the Garden. The Carmen: Prosciutto, Capicola, Spinach, Parmesan, Fontina, Ricotta, Garlic Oil. So much flavor, even from the various cheeses, and the garlic oil wasn't buried... it allowed a perfect melding of flavor, with a bit of freshness from the spinach. Warm and creamy. Served with garlicky garlic butter. The Figgy Piggy: Applewood Smoked Bacon, Figs, Balsamic Onions, Garlic Herb Cheese, Mozzarella, Ricotta, Garlic Honey Oil. Dear gods, I love the combination of figs, balsamic onions, and bacon. The perfect blend of sweet and savory... this was far and away my favorite, and will be a treat I savor many times in the future. It was served, again, with simple garlic butter, allowing the ingredients to shine -- I didn't use it. It wasn't necessary. There wasn't too much crust. The Garden: Balsamic Eggplant, Spinach, Zucchini, Roasted Garlic, White Onions, Snow Peas, Mozzarella, Ricotta, Garlic Oil. I substituted artichoke hearts for snow peas -- the snow peas (which I do love) didn't seem quite in harmony with the Mediterranean ingredients. They were generous with the artichoke hearts, and the whole thing came together flawlessly. It was served with their smoky, thick "House Red" sauce, which complemented the calzone marvelously. A blowout binge that was worth. Every. Calorie. Every single one.

Located in the 'Walking District' in Nashville, it's was a bit out of the way for us, but we were on a mission to experience the proclaimed 'Greatest burger in Nashville'. The menu includes several burgers, wursthen, and chicken sandwich options. The waitress told us that The Farm Burger is the most popular. I for one have never had a burger with an egg and the thought of it isn't very appealing. I ended up ordering the 'Pharmacy Burger', which is a less cheesier version of their 'Cheese Burger' that my husband ordered. They LOADED the mustard, but that really wasn't what I didn't like about it. It really wasn't that I disliked the burger, it just wasn't anywhere near one of the best burgers that I've had. The extra toppings at fifty cents each are pretty skimpy too. I was a fan of the wasabi aioli though. I also loved the tater tots though. I highly recommend ordering tater tots over the french fries. The beer cheese dipping sauce was an extra dollar and was borderline disgusting. Stick with wasabi aioli. I'm thinking that the toppings and sauces are possibly what the hype about this place is, otherwise, I just don't get it. To describe this place in one word... overhyped.
