This Costco is a departure from the others in town, at least regarding customer service. I was on the hunt for a new iPad 2 Air, and the phx store told me that Tempe had three in stock. I drove right over there, and went to a register to give them the electronic purchasing slip (you pay and then go to a merchandise cage and pick up your item) and paid. When they gave me the item, it was gold, not silver. On many things, I don't care about color, but an expensive new shiny piece of tech the color needs to be the right color. I think the gold ipad is tacky looking and not for me. I told the manager that I was here to purchase the silver model, and he started arguing with me. I was puzzled because I would have thought I knew more about what I wanted to purchase than a stranger, but he seemed to think otherwise. Anyway, long story short, they didn't have it in stock, and I left, dissapointed at the bad info (not his fault) and suprised at the poor service (his fault.)

Healthy and refreshing. The beet appetizer was to die for! Did not leave the restaurant feeling like I ate too much. The portions were just right. The only negative comment was the noise level. It felt like a noisy cafeteria. We skipped dessert to get out of the din.

I'm not going to lie: I'm still a Toys R Us kid. Sometimes the inner child in me can only be sated by toys. Or maybe I feel prompted into giving some random action figure/collectible that catches my eye a home after the guilt trips the "Toy Story" movies tend to instill. Or maybe it's for one of their annual video game sales. It's also in a great location next to a big mall, so on the way home, I tend to stop by. My reasons for the positive review are largely and admittedly nostalgic. When I was a kid, my parents would take me out of town to the Dallas area that has a mall similar to the Meadows Mall with a Toys R Us right next to it. While the whole TRU store format has changed (remember that big wall of video game covers that you had to take a ticket to the wall at the front of the store to pick up your video game?), something about this particular style is decidedly "old style". Of course, it doesn't hurt in the slightest that their store signs by the side of the road are in the old 1970-1980 pastel color style, that immediately smacks of my days of Star Wars, Transformers, Masters of the Universe and Ghostbusters. Now they make toys for adult collectors" these days, I do feel the sway of an awesome treat, because darn it all, I'm sure I've done something earlier in the week to deserve it. I can't help it. It's fun to not be "adult" all the time and just remember the "good ol' days", from bikes to trains to video games. It's an indelible and happy part of my early days, and it's nice to get that feeling again, even if it lasts for just a little while.

Not a whole lot to say just YUM! My co-worker ordered some for work and i missed out because i was busy... he had promised me some earlier but couldnt save any the next day we went together and he ordered a large. he had the girl split it into 2 boxes so i could take some home. it took a bit of a wait but i was very impressed, the garlic bread was awesome too very soft hours later the pizza was still good cold! im def going back to get the full experience for myself but their food alone has earned them more business
