An example of an negative review: This store has a pretty good selection of gear and a lot of clothes (if a bit pricey). If you need long johns or a sleeping bag you can often start here but its bread and butter are from clothing sales, school backpacks and the like for the local college community. If you get lucky you may be there at the same time as a knowledgeable person, but don't expect any kind of technical knowledge from the all of the staff including where things are or what kind of products they carry, much less how to use things or put stuff together. To be fair, they do carry a useful assortment of odds and ends (bungee cord, webbing/screen etc. by the foot, a modest selection of buckles/cord locks etc.). I go here if I need something in a real hurry, otherwise I go online since it's always a crap shoot whether they have a specific items, can find them, or know anything about them. On the internet there are no blank stares...

An example of an positive review: This golf course is so nice! You can tell the manager cares about his members and really makes sure your needs are met! Looking forward to more events here and I'll be telling all my friends about this place!

An example of an negative review: Let me premise this review with "I like Toby Keith's and his music", so this review is in no way impacted by my personal taste in music or the artist. Now with that said, I do NOT like his restaurant and food. My review is not based on a single visit, but the last of 3 separate occasions with similar if not exact circumstances. All of my visits were on a weekend evening and for dinner. The 1st thing which I found odd when arriving (2 of the 3 times) was no music playing. It wasn't that it wasn't Toby Keith's songs, or even country music...but NO Music at all. The TVs were tuned to various channels ranging from the World Cup (the vast majority) to baseball, ESPN and even a cooking channel, however no sound. When I inquired if they would be playing any music or at least have Keith's videos playing I was told "No, the bartender and managers are watching the world cup." Now I could see if the place was busy and everyone was interested in the game, but the place wasn't even half full and NO ONE was even paying attention to the game other than the staff. However, they were intently watching the game to the point it took us almost 5 minutes to be acknowledged and 15 minutes to be seated. I had similar experience on both times prior as well. Once seated the service did pick up, however our poor server was covering the vast majority of the restaurant as the others were focused on the game or their phones. She took our drink orders right away, but stopped by a few times to apologize as it was taken longer than normal to prepare our drinks. We didn't order anything other than a beer and one of their signature cocktails. We placed our dinner order once the drinks arrived. Very shortly afterwards ONE of the entrees arrived (Fried Bologna Sandwich) burnt yet cold. The server was shocked when she saw it and was present when my entree arrived. Mine was cold as well and she took them both back right away. She returned about 10 minutes later saying the 2nd sandwich was also way over cooked so she had them doing it yet again. Needless to say after all of this our server apologized over and over, but yet management never once came over, or stopped watching the TV either. I don't knock the server, as she was working hard to try and keep up, but the food and rest of the service staff was horrible. I hate giving 1 Star reviews, but I also hate horrible experiences and would prefer to warn others.

An example of an positive review: Date of visit: 03/14/11 (I joined YELP just to write a review for this place!) OMG... I love this place. The food was great. Just what you would expect from a FOX restaurant. Being downtown is a big plus. The staff was helpful and Lauren was a great server. Ask for her when you go in. The Kitchen staff was great. This was my second time at The Arrogant Butcher, so I decided to sit at the salad bar to watch the kitchen staff at work( Lauren was not in, but Chip was great too)... Sitting at the bar you really get to see the workings of a kitchen. Watching the slicer for our charcuterie in action was really awesome, made by Chef Austin. Our food came out in a timely manner, and was perfect. But what I really want to talk about is the desserts. I ordered a Peanut Butter Cup, it was amazing. I watched as it was made by Chef Ricardo, he was really quick and knew what he was doing. So, I decided to try the other desserts. I noticed they had replaced the Apple Fritters with a Salted Caramel Pudding. I liked the apple fritters, but this new dessert is even better. The caramel pudding is heaven in a glass jar( the idea is very inventive, I love it) Also the Blueberry cheesecake is really good as is the warm chocolate cake with caramel(my favorite mix), and they all come in the nifty cute jars. Chef Ricardo was very helpful as I spoke to him about the desserts. He said when he is not here he is usually hiding in the back baking something. He stated it was a team effort and he loves his team in the pastry department and the rest of the kitchen. I highly recommend The Arrogant Butcher,especially for desserts. And if you can, sit at the salad bar and watch them at work. Ricardo is hidden by the beautiful black slicer.
