I have been motivated to write a review after I read about an employee. There is a man who works there that has many tattoos and an eye patch. He is kind, helpful, and always smiling. My 9 year old son loves seeing him. This man saved his art project from being thrown away, after my son forgot it on a table. He has the coolest tattoo I have ever seen and it blew my son's mind; across his knuckles his tattoo says "READ MORE"!! I just introduced my son to the coolest librarian EVER! Not only is this a fantastic library; they have the friendliest staff!! Gone are the days of only little old lady librarians. Today our librarians can be bad ass!!

Dear God, I felt like Gordon Ramsay on "Kitchen Nightmares," although I didn't say the F word out loud and storm out. I was quietly appalled. My husband and I both ordered the filet mignon. The steak was a MISsteak as my husband eloquently said. It looked like it was run over by one of those planes outside the window, then left in a bush, wiped off, heated up, and THEN served with canned mushrooms (ack!) and wrapped in what was some sort of mystery meat ... bacon? The "vegetable medley" was two carrots, two broccoli florets, and the rest were stalks. Obviously from a can. My husband's mashed potatoes made him scared. Literally. He said they tasted like "a trip to the ER." The salad bar tasted of despair. What was really weird was that the family seated next to us was raving about everything. Maybe they just came from Sizzler. Overpriced and underwhelming. Even if you are IN the Deer Valley Airport, go across the street to Culver's.

1 year ago we moved to Summerlin and since then I have driven past TC's Rib Crib and seen it on my check in list on Yelp and other sites. At first I thought it was someone's house but then I saw it was a real shop and my hopes rose as I love BBQ and hole in the wall places are usually the best. Well finally my family and I gave it a try. First The menu was promising and I am kicking myself for not trying the Catfish Fry-Day special. Instead we went for the three meat combo and our daughter tried the two rib kids meal. The baked beans and cornbread were excellent and the potato salad not bad. The barbecue sauce had a lot of flavor and spice. However, there was way too much sauce on the food even for us BBQ lovers. The spare ribs were tough and chewy instead of tender. The pulled pork might as well been a bowl of sauce as the meat's only flavor came from the mass of sauce. The brisket was unique, almost a greek gyro cut (very thin and bendable like ribbon) but was also chewy and overcooked. The atmosphere was nice but the staff mostly seemed overworked resulting in a long time between drink refills. The YELP coupon definitely made this a value buy and the $4.99 lunch specials and kids prices make it a bargain for the value conscious but if you are looking for the perfect BBQ, you will be disappointed. It appears from the mixed reviews that this place may be hit or miss depending on the chef or how busy they are but It won't be in my main rotation. I will however give it another shot one day just to see if I caught a bad day.

This place is not very good...at all. They claim "fresh seafood". You can not have fresh seafood in the middle of the country. Fresh seafood is fish caught that day and served to you that night. The seafood is not from some puny lake in Wisconsin. It is from the ocean. So instead, this seafood is frozen for many days and then served, not fresh, to you. I understand that when you live in flyover states your seafood options are limited, but if the fish from fresh from a lake that would be cool. Shrimp, lobster and scallops, are not swimming around some nearby lake in Wisconsin.
