A: If I could, I would throw fistfulls of stars - buckets! boatloads! - at this Yelp review. My experience at Alchemy: the Workshop was, hands down, the best salon experience that I have ever had. I tend to be a little neurotic when it comes to getting haircuts. As a general rule, booking a salon appointment generally falls somewhere in line alongside root canals and blind dates on my anxiety scale: two hours in an uncomfortable chair trying to impress someone that I will probably never see again (of course I floss/love kids/get regular trims!) from which I leave sore, numb, and with the distinct impression that no one understood a thing I said. I have left salons in rages, tears, and with my hair in a ponytail. Alchemy: the Workshop has changed everything. First off, the atmosphere is AMAZING. The decor is chic and warehouse-y, but the people in it lend it a warmth and welcome that feels like coming home. Everyone - from the receptionist to the owners themselves - is witty, playful, utterly charming, and goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Would you like a complimentary beer while your color sets? A paraffin wax dip between conditioning and cut? Why not sit on the patio and enjoy the day during your gloss treatment? Nothing is rushed. Everyone listens, considers, and thoughtfully suggests solutions. As if that weren't enough, my stylist, Noelle, worked absolute magic with my hair. Magic, I tell you. I came in with a heavy, parched, sun-damaged curtain of lackluster waves plastered against my head and left with soft and silky, bouncy, weightless curls. The cut is amazing. The subtle color change is amazing. The products she recommended are amazing. Seriously, I drove to the mall afterwards just so that I could walk around in public with my movie-star hair. Truth. The only regret that I had upon leaving was that I had to wait four weeks before coming back. I am absolutely sold on Alchemy: The Workshop. Don't walk. Run. And tell everyone I said hi!

A: After having an amazing time at Nine Fine Irishmen my friend and I decided to try this irish bar. We went back to Nine. It was totally boring in here. I felt like I was in an old folks home. The band was slow, boring and just plain bad. The service was ok. The bar itself is pretty nice and has a cool selection of whiskey on the walls. But the thing of it is it just wasn't that fun. I'll be going back to Nine thank you very much.

Answer: I always refer to yelp reviews when picking a place to eat, but I've never written one until now so bear with me. We're always looking for great sushi places near the house so we were very excited to try this place out as it is around the corner from our house. The decor is cute, especially considering that this restaurant sits in a strip mall with a Fry's grocery store around the corner. One look at the menu, however, and it seemed extremely pricey for a restaurant in a strip mall next to a Fry's. I'd expect prices like this at a swanky place in Scottsdale. We tried to be open minded hoping the prices would be justified by awesome sushi. The menu is HUGE with pages and pages of special sushi roll options and there is no sheet to write down what you're selecting. The waitress takes your order. We ended up writing down what we wanted on a napkin so we could order without forgetting what we wanted once the waitress came around. The waitress seemed nice enough but knew very little about sushi. We got a blank stare when we asked her about their sashimi and she had to ask someone if they even offered it and where it could be found on the menu. What sushi restaurant doesn't offer sashimi? The rolls were HUGE. By huge I mean a small piece of fish wrapped around a giant fist full of rice. The chefs are also very liberal with the sauces they use. TOO liberal. All you taste is white rice and sauce. One of our sushi rolls had lemon in it and they didn't even bother to take the seeds out. Imagine biting into a 13 dollar sushi roll with lemon seed. If you're into Americanized sushi, aren't into raw fish, and have a fat wallet, this is your place. If you enjoy sushi for the simplicity and flavor of the fish, you'll be disappointed. In short, this place was overpriced and served over-sauced, overly-Americanized sushi. We should have gone to Sushi Eye.

Output: YUCK! The Baka burrito was COLD! It had mole sauce instead of ranchero sauce and they just can't seem to find RIPE TOMATOES! Even though the meat was cold the bite or two I had the meat was pretty decent. Maybe Baja Fresh will get their act together. If you can do that I will be back. I won't patronize this establishment again until probably July. To be fair, they did refund my money for a second time in as many attempts.

output: Oh Sweet Tomatoes how I USED to love you... Seems like this location has gone way down hill. Went for dinner with my hubby on a Thursday night at 445pm to try and beat the crowd. So many veggie bins on the salad line were empty or looked less than appetizing since someone would spill other stuff into another bin. Yuck. There were tons of kids running amuck thru the line as well putting their hands on everything. One kid had an entire plate full of just boiled egg crumbles and was running up and down the line with no parents in sight. Where are the parents or management/staff to control this kind of stuff? Putting hands on everything is so unsanitary, which is why I usually stray from buffets... When paying, I was shocked at the prices now. I haven't been to a Sweet Tomatoes in about a year or so, but $28 for 2 dinners and 2 drinks at a salad bar seems way ridiculous. Another $10 or less and I could have gone to Outback and we could had some steak with our salad! After seating we went to get drinks and I was so disappointed that their tea was empty and they dont have apple juice anymore since I am not a big soda drinker. We then ventured to get some bread and soup to go with our salad. Almost all of the soups had that crusty layer on top from sitting so long. There was no butter for potatoes or bread. The foccacia and pizza bread was just the crusty outter layer that no one ever seems to take. The pastas were crusty and dry looking. So much for my appetite. After eating our salad and little bread/muffins that weren't old looking we went in for some of their gooey chocolate cake. Again only the outside rim of it was left and it was rock hard. The guy behind the counter said it would be a while before a new one was out. He just stared at the kid who was digging around the cake and using his finger to scrape the cake off the self serve spoon. Gross. We then just settled for a dry brownie muffin and ice cream. We never did take anything from the fruit/pudding bar since that was covered in kids as well and all the bins were almost empty. Knowing that I am pregnant and hormones are raging, I decided not to complain since it would probably turn out ugly with me either screaming or in tears. Just left hungry and disgusted. I will not be back to this location. Too bad the express location is closed now since I did frequent it all the time. Guess I will head back to the 215/Flamingo location with higher hopes. That one always seemed to hit the mark.

Answer:
I love the simplicity of this small sandwich shop. Expect to pay around $7.50 per meal, which isn't bad, but maybe a little too much for the simple sandwiches. The sandwiches are great, don't get me wrong, but it's nothing I can't whip up on my own at home with some better-than-Walmart groceries. Good, fun, clean place in a nice location. It's worth stopping by if you're in downtown Mesa.
