Problem: When My husband and I passed by this restaurant the first time we knew we had to try it!! Such a perfect name for a high end restaurant and from the outside it looked so enchanting! Much to my surprise this restaurant is mediocre at best. Once you walk in to the restaurant the decor and atmosphere is a mood kill. From the outside it looks so sexy and once your inside you'll feel as if you're in some beach house in the Hamptons; makes no sense. Bright restaurant full of older folk. The food is so subpar it was shocking. Decor aside, everything on the menu looks absolutely delicious!! What a let down!! Nothing stood out, nothing was exciting, and nothing was different. Don't bother asking your waiter any details on how food is prepared either because they won't know; instead, they will open your menu and read off of it acting like they knew the whole time. Don't waste your Saturday night here. You won't be impressed. Such a let down for a restaurant that sounds so great! I read reviews and decided to give it a chance anyway but regretted it later.

Problem: I have been to La Casa Blanca over 8 times and this time was the last. They have had some consistency issues before-sometimes the food is flavorful and spiced right-other times not. As usual -the chips came out-this time they tasted like they had been sitting around for who knows how long or they were bought from a store. Our entrees came out right away. I ordered simply a chicken enchilada and a shrimp taco. The shrimp taco was incredibily spicy to the point I could not eat it. After flagging down the waiter, I told him that we had been here many times and that I had ordered this before, and that it was too spicy. He replied that he would check with the chef. He came back and made some lame excuse that it was the pico de gallo - I said no-the whole taco was too spicy and it was inedible. The bill came out and lo and behold- the waiter didn't even have the decency to take the taco off the bill. Forget it- you just lost our business-another loser restaurant here in Chandler.

Problem: AquaKnox is noteworthy aqua scooby snacks at its finest. Here's my 6-course tasting journey diary. 5th of all, I'm starting with dessert at the end. Imagine a tasting for every dish. My party of 3 enjoyed this ridiculous tasting of 9 gourmet ice cream flavors in its own. Some of which were the traditional, vanilla bean and mango passion, and then the untraditional- Thai iced tea, guiness, lychee, butterscotch. Chef from kitchen had fun by allowing us to guess flavors, and later coming out at the end to see what we came up with. 4th of all, for the steak lovers, Glazed with green peppercorn sauce, the Prime ribeye(calf), folded to be seasoned inside and out. seared filet style for texture and juiciness sprinkled with Saba beans and baby carrots on a bed of potato corn puree. Ahh hosed with deliciousness. 3rd, seafood, yes their forte How about that butter poached halibut in a bed of yellow tomato sauce. With eggplant caponata. 2nd, Raw salmon seared with pumpernickel crust. Basil cream and basil blossom. give me a break. I'm utterly in love with seafood more so. Stop. No. Don't stop. 1st of all, lobster bisque with caviar on top. Best 5,000 calories ever consumed(I'm over exaggerating on the calories) Bread sticks in a vase served with smoked fish mousse while we eagerly wait with our Shirley temps. Primely, service is tops. These kids specialized in serving us very well, and describing each culinary dish as it was delivered. Mmm they know their stuff, it's obvious they do their kitchen homework. Note, We came for our best friend's bday and they treated her like a queen, so I highly recommend to spend your benjamin's at this place if you'd like to enjoy fine dining and freshest fish n primo meats.

Problem: Well, their award winning egg sandwich lives up to it's name. Deliciously served on toasted bread with cream cheese, egg, onion and bacon, with a side of fruit and oven roasted potatoes. It's outstanding. Their award for best wait staff? Meh, average, really. But the food, or what I've tried, is the real treasure here in this cute little diner. Still need to try those cupcakes!
