A: This place is within walking distance from work and has an excellent beer selection. This made it the perfect destination for me and my co-workers who felt the need to bond over some brews after a long work week. The cool atmosphere and funky artwork adds to the charm of this quaint little venue, but most notable is the array of beer choices offered. I went with Deschutes Green Lakes Organic Ale, which I had never tried... and it was delicious. That was followed by Rogue Dead Guy Ale, a solid selection when you're in that craft beer zone. They also had two offerings from Bell's brewery in Michigan. I only recently discovered these fine beers because they are favorites of my co-workers. And after a bit of beer drinking, all that liquid intake has to go somewhere. So let me remark on the bathroom decor. There appears to be a stencil-art depiction of a man's face on the underside of the toilet lid, that I can only guess is the image of Tony Clifton (the lounge lizard alleged alter ego of Andy Kaufman). That's a nice touch. And that summarizes the appeal of The Lost Leaf... Like Tony Clifton, a real class act!

A: Ate here for breakfast at 4pm with family! According to my mom, this is one of the better branches of IHOP in the north. When we arrived, it was practically empty; perhaps only two other tables seated. Food tasted great, which I was worried about prior to our visit, since my last experience at a different IHOP was an average one. Service here was exceptional. Our server was extremely helpful and friendly! A really sweet older gentleman... My cousin arrived a bit late, and he kept offering to reheat his food since it came out early. Overall atmosphere was good. I don't like crowded places, especially loud ones when trying to eat, so I enjoyed the emptiness (maybe since it was 4pm?). It was also very clean here. They played older 50-80's music in the background, so it was pretty relaxing and brought a few laughs to our table. I don't really like breakfast family restaurants, since I usually enjoy cooking this kind of food at home, but I definitely recommend this place if you just want to get out of the house and still have a great breakfast. Five stars to this IHOP!

A: This is definitely our go-to place for Vietnamese food. The owners and waitstaff are great, although like so many others have said, I hate the loud dish banging when they are clearing a table.

A:
It's a chain restaurant, so you get the same taste at them all. I have been to Carrabba's many times(around charlotte, and concord), and every time I fall in love! My food is always cooked to perfection and the service is always nice. If you plan to go on a friday, saturday, or sunday, go early or you will have a 15-30 min wait. One time, we were told the wait was 45 mins, so we left. I always start off with a caesar salad, which is never a let down, and a martini. I love the chicken fettuccine here because they add peas, which adds that special touch of goodness. Once I ordered a pizza from the kids menu as an appetizer, and it was pretty tasty. We have had the lasagna, chicken parm, and spaghetti. They have all been pretty good. Carrabba's is good, better than Olive Garden in my book. But the taste will ALWAYS be the same no matter where you go.
