Problem: This is one of those places I stop at for convenience. It has a dive bar feel, but on the low end side. It's small and packed from floor to ceiling with all the usual smoke shop stuff and paraphernalia. Prices are on par with what you would find anywhere else. Staff is helpful and quick to get people in and out.

Problem: I used to go here twice a month! I Remember why. Not a fancy place, it's a diner. The food is big portion and big on taste! I'd recommend this place for sure.

Problem: In short an unimpressive independent Italian restraint in a overly Italian saturated area. Over the years this location has changed names and ownership many times, and I decided to give the current iteration of this place a try. The inside has gone upscale, with frescos on the wall, table cloths, and an accordion player. The empty buffet setup by the window did not quite match. The menu has "hand made pastas" and many traditional dishes, pizzas, sandwiches and strombolis. Included with a main dish is a side salad with choice of dressing and garlic bread. I opted for the ravioli de zuca 15.95, butternut squash ravioli in a white cream sauce. I was hoping the gorgonzola the menu listed would be more pronounced however it was not. The filling was quite sweet, the pasta was a bit soft and the meal was luke warm at best when it reached my table. The side salad was good with a nix mix of greens and I had a unique jalapeno ranch that was thin and light. The people I was with ordered a rolled eggplant filled with ricotta cheese (13.95), it came with pasta and veggies. Texturally it was a bit soft and the flavors were weak. Portion sizes were on the medium side, not huge, but not terribly small, for the price and quality I would have expected more. The garlic bread that is in included is good, as is the on table parmegean cheese, red pepper, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. There are other better options within 3 miles so I say give them a try first.

Problem: I have visited this salon for years and the service has generally been average (except for the feeling that the technicians are always talking about me behind my back in front of my face...). The salon is close to my house, so this has been the main reason I kept returning. Never again! I went in for a gel manicure and pedicure with my daughter - and Eddy was the one who came to give me my manicure. What a horrible experience! He is arrogant and rude and couldn't care less about what the customer wants. He came at me to take off my old gel polish with the drill tool and I told him that I would prefer he did it without the drill (it hurts, is damaging to your nails and is really done in my experience by lazy nail techs that don't want to spend the time to do it right). He told me that "he's the professional" and to "let him do his job" - I was so flustered I let him do it and my nails are trashed. He never gave me a manicure (which I realized after he polished because I was so mad about the drill), yet they charged me anyway. On top of this, I had chosen a gel color for my nails that he assured me had a matching color for my toes - once he was done we discovered he was wrong - so he picked out a random color and called it "good enough" - for who? I'm the one who is paying for this lousy service. There's plenty of competition for my business of there - I think it's time to spend my money somewhere else.
