Problem: What would be an example of an negative review?

Answer: The WORST experience in years. After eating their horrible food and then finding a discrepancy in the check, I waited with my 2 daughters and my son 30 minutes for the manager to finally make his way to the restaurant. Juan came to our table in his flip flops, basketball shorts and t shirt and was immediately rude. To make a long story short, he told me I was wrong and my family left bewildered by the worst customer service I've experienced in many years. I like to support local businesses, but this was a huge mistake. Do yourself a favor and go to one of the hundreds of other restaurants in the east valley.

Answer: I was in the mood too try something new tonight and always looking for good local style plate lunch or any local food comfort food tops on my list. I notice the other week fellow yelpers checking in too Island Flavor thinking myself never been here and close by talk about bookmark! I was excited about adding another restaurant too my 808 list! =)) Island Flavor no doubt keeps up all the traditions of Vegas not only being the ninth island but in need for plate lunch or two scoops rice and mac salad many ONO options. Just knowing that can always find local grinds no matter part of Vegas be at is beautiful. I must admit did not exactly start off with a bang. I was greeted with smile and told too sit anywhere wanted. I felt like ten mins maybe not so bad but still no one gave me menu and someone asked me if ordered yet like can see a menu. Once got menu the service was nothing but on point! My soda was never empty, checked up on me see everything going, and even gave me too go boxes without me asking. I order the shoyu ahi poke and kalbi for dinner. The Shoyu Ahi Poke was awesome. The whole style Shoyu style is by far the most popular style back home (although you never find two exactly alike). I ask which one she would recommend since they have three different styles on the menu too choose from. She like the most popular one so went with Shoyu. It did not disappoint. The amount of onions in it could do without. Too stick with tradition onions staple but amount varies each poke. Personnel preference but the flavors was just like poke back home. Chopstick action. Yay! Kalbi the marinade brought out all the flavors. I like Kalbi that find the balance between shoyu base but enough acid, little sweet, and just right amount of spices. I think they did awesome job! It nice big cuts of kalbi some places it hit or miss the thickness of the cut. Makes all come together with the marinade, nice full kalbi, moist in the middle since not thin cut, and grill marks on outside so much flavor. The meat around the bones the best part of it! Soo good! The mac salad not one of my favorite still hold L&L best mac salad. Still solid mac salad. The interior all about Hawaii with all artwork mostly of bird of paradise, and playing local Hawaiian stations need not say more. One more thing ketchup, shoyu, and tabasco as basic condiments on every table. Locals know what am talking about. Roots!

Answer:
Wow. OK, this is one of only two Indian restaurants I've found so far in Charlotte where the food tastes authentic. We went there for dinner hungry and tried several things -- the appetizer sampler, which came with three different chutneys and sambar, and then channa masala and pongal avial as the main courses. Everything was delicious, but the samosa on the appetizer plate was a highlight, as was the carrot pudding that we shared for dessert. The pongal was super-traditional, just like something you'd get at a casual family dinner. What we ordered was way too much food for two but I'm sure it will make great leftovers. Albemarle Rd. isn't much for atmosphere, but the restaurant itself is pleasant.
