A: Came for a date night with my wife and was hoping to have some great food. Service was good and the waiter was very attentive. We ordered baked ravioli as an appetizer which was the highlight of the meal. Salads were disappointing. My wife ordered the house salad and commented that the dressing was a little watery. My caeser was over dressed and came garnished with tomatoes. I felt we both got the cheap end of the lettuce as well. Entrees were also disappointing as the ratio of sauce to pasta was either too much or too little and both poorly seasoned. The Italian sausage tasted like a breakfast sausage as well. Good news is that my diet coke was good and my wife enjoyed her Italian soda.
Q: negative

A: My boyfriend and I decided to come here after passing it hundreds of times and after learning that it's been around for sixty years it must be good right? Wrong. The people were nice enough, however the food was not anything to write home about. I suggest going to the new Chinese resturant on Brownsville road instead. I do give them props for the cost. Our meal was very cheap, but that's not good enough for me.
Problem: What would be an example of an negative (OPTIONS:

Answer: I so, so....SO wanted to like this place. I literally live 4 miles down the road and it's pretty much the only place in the area with a decent bar. I also love supporting local businesses and want to see them thrive. But alas, that hasn't been the case. Now, I can't blame the entire chain because I've been to other locations albeit going back a few years and I have friends that rave about their local store, so I can only guess it's the roll of the dice when you franchise, even at a local level. To be fair, we've eaten at this location probably 5-6 times since it's been open, and while not every experience has been notably bad, none has stood out as a reason to return. That decision has been solely based on the fact that it's five minutes from my door. The biggest issue has definitely been the food. Several instances of receiving dishes hot on the outside and not-completely-thawed on the inside indicate that much of the menu is frozen and microwaved.....a common practice of casual dining I'm aware, but jeez, if you're gonna go that route, at least ensure that the food is heated properly. The wings, as has been mentioned is previous reviews are terrible. Flavorless, greasy, and fatty. BWW (the giant chain that it is) absolutely owns them on wings. Having hailed from a close proximity of NYC, I can attest that the pizza is not native of anywhere near there. :( Service, at least after the typical awkward period when a new place opens in this bar/restaurant-starved area, has been admittedly pretty good, especially from the bartenders. But that leads us to my final gripe, and what I feel would've been an easy way to redeem the shortcomings of the dining, the bar. The bar itself is simply too small and it's difficult to get a seat there, much less for two or more people. The surrounding bar area would typically handle this overflow, but they tend to just use it as regular seating when busy. I'm sorry, but when it's after 9 on a weekend night I don't expect to encounter screaming children in the bar area. If I wanted that I'd go to McDonald's. I've actually seen children AT the bar a few times when there was empty tables on the restaurant side......seriously?? In addition, the entire bar area is way too bright and could definitely benefit from a dimmer. I don't want to feel like I'm in a jewelry store when I go to a pub. Lastly, in this age of craft beer renaissance, their tap selection is pretty pathetic, featuring (iirc) only one decent selection among a bunch of redundant mediocrity. I do still have hope that perhaps it will improve, but sadly, it will likely take competition to make it happen since an ongoing history of negative reviews hasn't seemed to help....and in this area, it could take another five years till something else opens. For now, two stars for closeness and decent service.

Output: Probably closer to 3.5 stars but I rounded up to 4 stars since chicken and waffles is not a food type that I expected to find in the desert. The food is tasty enough and I would expect that LoLo's is the finest chicken and waffles joint in Arizona. I spend a lot of time in Atlanta on business where chicken and waffles is considered an art form so I'm spoiled by Gladys Knight! Seriously, the waffles are delicious! Some of the best that I've had anywhere... I'm not sure what is going on with the frozen butter/crisco on the waffles but I could do without it. The chicken is pretty good but it is fairly greasy.... I had the chicken fried chicken and it was a solid offering topped with sausage gravy. I wanted to try the banana pudding but I succumbed to the chicken, waffles, chicken fried chicken, corn bread, rice/beans,etc... You won't leave here hungry!

output: Nice to have another addition to Market Square with outside seating. You don't go there for quality food. I have had the burgers and barbecue sandwiches. They are average at best and that's being generous. In addition everything is fairly pricey.

I don't get the Metro Pizza love around here. Maybe it's because I'm from St. Louis, the land of cracker-thin crust and ooey-gooey provel cheese. However, I find this pizza very generic. I have eaten at this Metro location three times now, each time hoping to understand the draw. Nope. Still don't. It's not like it's BAD... it's just not exceptional either. The service has gotten worse with each visit too. The first time, the waitress was so friendly and warm that it made me want to come back and try to find that lovin' feeling for Metro. The second time... meh. The third time, the waitress only made it to our table once, and that was to take our drink and food order. After that, service was a free-for-all. I love Grimaldi's. I also like Aurelio's. This whole Metro thing? I guess I'll never get it. Sigh.
