A: I-Naba is a refreshing change of pace for my rotation of noodle lunches that are mostly, pork broth, stir fried, or beef broth based. Their little storefront is a bit hidden inside the Decatur and Desert Inn shopping center where Smith's is located and once you find the provocative "massage parlor" it's right next door. Their menu has expanded a bit from when they first opened, but I won't go into that, you can see the menu here : http://www.inabalasvegas.com/#!menu/vstc1=brunch I-Naba also offers specials in their menu in store that include an appetizer, entree, and dessert for those who would like to partake on a more complete lunch. My personal favorites are the zuke tuna bowl with hot udon combo ($12) or the battera (cured mackerel sushi). The hot udon increases my heart rate and makes my nose runny because I'm slurping its umami deliciousness so quickly. Just like smelling a pineapple to see if it's ripe, I use my runny nose to tell me whether or not I'm having a great bowl of hot noodles. I've never had a problem with the service, any language barrier issues, or my drinks being filled, BUT sometimes I'm sad when I go there on Tuesday's and they're not opened :(. The best part of I-Naba is definitely knowing the fact that I leave not feeling heavy, but satisfied and healthy.

A: Some friends of mine decided to go to Applebee's, we get there and was immediately greeted and was shown to our table. We waited 10 minutes before a waitress even came over to get our beverages..we just decided to put our food order in at the same time.(now that she took forever to get to us..we don't know why she was slow it was 9:30 at night and not that many people in there eating) Meanwhile, we're just sitting there and realized the table itself was not cleaned..we all put our arms and elbows in some sticky stuff! gross! we had to ask the waitress to wipe the table, instead the towel was just given to us!! We were like WHAT! So we had to wipe the table!!! Then about 25 mins later she starts to bring our meal out, I had to ask her for our appetizer...keep in mind our dinner has already arrived and on the table! We had to wait another 5 mins to get our appetizer.. Mozzarella Sticks...that tasted like freezer burn water sticks! The prime rib was over cooked and the mashed potatoes were dry and their asparagus was so thin and greasy! ick! the other dish we order was new york steak with fried shrimp...the steak was tough and the shrimp..there was no shrimp! it was just a ball of overcooked batter, we also order chicken and veggies which the chicken was not cooked and still rare and the veggies were greasy! I order the Roaster Turkey & Bacon on a Chibatta Bread with fries...the fries had so much salt on them it was unbearable to eat and the sandwich..well you get the picture how this is all going! It took her another 15 minutes to check us out! This was an awful experience...I don't recommend going there even if you are starving and it's the closest place to eat...go somewhere where they actually care about the quality of their customer service not to mention their food! Eating microwave food is better than eating there. This whole experience just reminded me of the movie "Waiting"....

Q: positive

A: Fantastic food! VERY flavorful, great variety, quite inexpensive. Perhaps the third best India food we've had, at any price. Don't be put off by the decor, which is thoroughly strip mall-y, thrift shop-y, and makeshift (the dining room is around back of the grocery). The food arrived quickly and the staff was responsive. (It was 7pm on a Tuesday, with fewer than 10 other customers, all Indian-American.) We'll definitely be back!

A:
We went for Dinner there on wednesday night and I have to say it was one the better experiences I have had. The restaurant is part of an existing mission on the left. The interior is just the way I love it, dark, cozy and cool. We chose the outside patio, since the weather was perfect. our waitress Nicole was courteous, knowledgeable and gave us advice on the drinks and the food. We started with spicy margarita, fresh lime juice, good tequila, agava and a dash of jalepeno. Yummi - but be careful, they are strong! We shared an appetizer of Crispy Pork & Cola Lime Glaze - excellent. For dinner I had the Grouper, which was a near perfect 10. My friend had Salmon which was great as well. We enjoyed some white wine from Austria - great recommendation by Nicole. The one thing we did not eat, but wished we did, was the table side guacamole. Oh well next time, since I will be back for sure.
