Problem: Authentic Vietnamese food @ Vegas!! The Vietnamese soup and sandwiches are great. This place also serves Thai, Chinese, etc. On top of that, they also have fresh fruit juices. All authentic items!!

Problem: Another montreal rec from katie j. We e-mailed them a month prior and got a reservation for 7:30pm on a Tuesday night. Even though it was a random weeknight, the restaurant was packed, and people were waiting for tables outside. The atmosphere was warm and casual. We were seated at a table by the floor to ceiling windows which were left open due to the lovely weather. The food was amazing - rich and flavorful. I'd especially recommend the bison tongue (wonderfully tender texture) and the duck in a can (rich, but don't be afraid to try it!). The foie gras poutine was too much for me, but hubby loved the seared foie gras. The wine recommendations from the waiter were spot on. We were too full for dessert, but if we're ever in Montreal again, we'll be back!

Problem: Yeah, 4 stars. I don't quite understand how this is possible myself. I almost stopped myself from doing this review considering the ridicule and shame this could potentially bring to my Yelp name. Ultimately the truth has to be told, and if I'm the one who has to say I had a 4 star experience at the TGI Fridays in Sam's Town, then so be it. So it was Sunday, and I sat in a booth at the bar waiting for my friends to arrive. First thing I noticed was that Happy Hour prices are in effect ALL DAY on Sunday in the bar and dining area (TGIS). Good start to the visit, but I figured maybe their happy hour was limited to bottles of miller lite and some sugar loaded kool-aid tasting drinks. To my pleasant surprise they had 20 oz glasses of Guinness for $4. Hmmmm, this is turning promising. All appetizers except the platters? $6. I started questioning why I'd never been to a TGI Friday's for happy hour at this point. Friends finally arrived as I was finishing my first Guinness (3 more would follow), and we ordered the following appetizers throughout our visit: Pretzel sticks with cheese and bacon sauce, Spinach dip, Hummus plate, Cheeseburger sliders, Some chicken bites thing, and potstickers. I've seen several reviews mentioning poor service but our experience was anything but poor. Adrian kept the drinks flowing and the food came out at reasonable times throughout the entire night. As for the food, it was all good for what it is. I don't expect the Hummus to rival that of a great mediterranean and it certainly didn't, and the sliders didn't make me forget about Bachi Burger, but if you're fine with sodium and calorie laded comfort food that tasted better with each frosty beverage, you might enjoy yourself as much as I did. Splitting the bill amongst our entire party I think we ended up spending about $25 a piece which I thought was an incredible value (though I'm sure my doctor would disagree).

Problem: I have been here probably six times or so and it has pretty good food. The service is usually lacking. Today when I dined with my family and friends, there were five out of seven drinks that were empty and not a single person offered to refill them. The food took around 40 minutes to come out. And the server got our drink orders wrong. However, none of that seemed to phase us because we had great company. The biggest issue I have is that when I dined there tonight, I got the prime rib special and in medium rare. By the time I went home (or even still in the car) I started to have an extreme stomach ache! And then I went home and I was locked in the bathroom for about two hours because of excruciating and embarrassing pain... A classic example of just bacteria infested food that wasn't stored properly or an employee didn't wash their hands. I'm not going to report this because my Mom did use a comp and so the meal was free. But holy cow, I have never had such a bad food experience in my life... Okay, but I must admit, all the other times I've dined here, I got a decent portion of food and it is usually okay. It's just that something about my food tonight was just not right. And even now (almost three hours after dining) I'm still constantly running to the restroom... (way to kill a good night...) I will most likely not be returning although the food is free...
