A: I discovered this place while Yelping and I'm glad I did. They don't serve junk food like the fast food chains. The food is delicious and convenient. Their bowls are the perfect size and not pricey at all (even better for students). You can get bowls or plates with chicken, rib eye, pork you name it! Ever heard of food pong? Try it out. Maybe you'll get a bowl for free! How awesome is that? Don't forget to get a punch card at the register. Buy nine bowls and get the tenth bowl on the house!

A: Botero - this can be a magical place! The ambiance is very lovely overlooking a nicely landscaped faux water feature. The inside is trendy and there are obviously a number of artworks by Botero. The reception desk was less then welcoming and friendly but that was the only hitch. Once seated (we opted for the outside as the temperature was perfect). From that point on the service was impeccable. A visit from the sommelier proved helpful. They have a very large and nicely chosen wine list with a couple of hidden gems in the more modest price ranges (sub $120). Thank you. We tried the Iberian pork appetizer which was amazing. Served with cold asparagus, toast, grilled red peppers and a cheese flan. A wonderful item to share. For dinner I chose the crusted fish with truffle dumplings and white asparagus. This was nicely executed and tasted great...but didn't wow me. My dining cohort, on the other hand, had a foodgasam with her choice of lamb chops. I managed to get a taste and can vouch that this was a strong choice. Also, need to mention the breadbasket...very nice assortment of breads and they were prepared with love. Definitely not an afterthought. Only thing I found a bit odd was their music choice..I believe it was European club techno pop or if that's not a real category you get the idea. Seems like a demographic mismatch from who their clientele appeared to be. We were too satisfied to try dessert or coffee. Overall, a great experience with memorable food.

Q: positive

A: I wanted to see Thunder from Down Under but the guy in our group gave me a dirty look and suggested Penn & Teller instead. The only negative thing is that because the show is at the Rio, you are forced to take a cab. And cabs can be so hard to get at night. Anyway, Penn & Teller were very entertaining. I loved that most of the tricks they did were very low-tech so you know that their magic is not in flashing lights or fancy sets.

Q: negative

A:
Horrible food. I can't believe that the place was filled to capacity with such disgusting food. I was so sick all night after eating here. Will never go back.
