Q: Will not go back! I stopped at this place bc there was a large sign outside saying that a pedi was $20. Well, come to find out (after my pedi) - that's only if you also get a full set - so I had to pay $25 for the pedi. About 1/2 way thru my pedi, the tech gets up to wax someone's eyebrows!! The experience was not worth my time.

Q: Nice American Pub "atmosphere", but not much else. We've been here a few times, and alway seem to leave saying, "Well.... that wasn't SO bad..." It's a nice place. We really WANT to like it... but we just don't. Servers are sometimes friendly, sometimes... not so much. Food is so-so, and a bit over-priced for pub fare. The last couple burgers we got there were dry like an old shoe. Stay away from tex-mex items on the menu (nachos, quesadillas, etc)... they just don't know how to do these here. Come for happy-hour half-priced apps and a draft beer - that's about their best thing on the menu.

Q: Will not be back. Owner not very friendly. When we arrived there, about 20 minutes before closing, seemed like the owner was in a hurry. With 15 minutes to go before closing, she started shutting off the lights. Very limited selection.

Q: Had to add a star for two reasons: Lechon. This is it. There was a tray heaping full of the stuff in all its golden and shiny glory. I pointed and said that I HAD to have it. The first piece I tasted was the equivalent of finding $200 in an old wallet when your rent is due. Crunchy skin that immediately melted in my mouth. Juicy sinful fatty stuff that clung to the thick pieces of skin. And tender meat so juicy that it made me google how this stuff was made. Lechon is all its hyped up to be. The other reason for the star is for the hospitality I receive whenever I go in there. Well, I've only been twice, but each time has been great. Once again, the family atmosphere was in full effect. I still haven't asked who is who, but I'll work my way up to that. But the people behind the counter have been awesome. This time, a dude big in stature chatted about the Knicks vs. Bulls rivalry and actually made a point that I could not deny. Seems like a great guy and he had complete confidence in his lechon, which he full well should. But what tops it all is the way he ended our transaction. Let's just say it was the top of the mountain for customer/vendor relationships. When trust is built between an owner and a customer, you pretty much have a guaranteed repeat customer. That's what the Factory has gained in me. Also, I got the bbq ribs again...and they were even better than last time if that's even possible. And finally, I had an order of lumpia. Now...mines were burnt on the ends. It wasn't ideal to have to chop the ends off of each one, but the taste of them nulls the fact that I had to do that. These were awesome tasting lumpia. Maybe they just took their eyes off of them for a minute too long or something. I'll definitely give these another go. I can see 5 stars in their future if the food maintains its deliciousness, which I am confident it will.
