Answer: Wow, I just don't understand the buzz about this place at all. First off there was 2 things I just couldn't get over, how dirty and worn down the inside was and how bad the service was. The place had been other restaurants before and other than some cheesy Greek mural nothing was done. The table I was at felt like it had never been scrubbed and the benches and chairs are worn out. The service was inexcusably bad, and the waitress didn't wash her hands. I know this because I followed her through the front door and never saw her wash her hands. At least until after she brought drinks she was never out of sight. She was also not very knowledgable of the menu, I asked "what is in your Greek salad?" And she says generic 'you know, lettuce and feta cheese and stuff' and then launches into an explanation of feta cheese. I had to ask her 2 more times before I could even get a real answer. She never offered up any specials, but when asked she told us, but one in particular was a "beef casserole" and "they put seasonings in it to be delicious" but nothing more. Ugh she was just lousy, had no table presence and did not own her role in the customer-server relationship. The food was...eh, ok. Barely. Nothing tasted fresh at all. It is still the summer and the tomatoes were lousy. The tzatziki sauce was just yogurt, no pepper or cucumber was discernible. The pita was tasteless and closing in on stale. The lamb meat was so overwhelmingly seasoned with oregano and something else I couldn't taste the lamb, but at least it was hot. And the "Greek fries" were a joke. You can't sprinkle a minuscule amount of dried oregano on fries and call them Greek. Oh and the kids meals were a let down. A healthy pile of meat on a pita, no sauce, no tomato, nothing. Nobody wants a dry gyro, not even kids. 2 stars instead if 1 for 2 reasons. Even though the kids meal gyro was lousy it was still a great value and once we got some sauce they were edible. And the gyro meat. Granted it was over-spiced but it was still yummy with a deliciously browned outside.

Answer: This theater remains one of the last remnants, a leftover reminder of what Fashion Square once was. It wasn't always so posh. No, Fashion Square used to be kinda low-rent rather than fancy pants. It used to be packed with kids ditching school, anchored by a fuckin' Sears and you even used to be able to smoke inside. Before that, it was originally a small somewhat open-air 3 story building anchored by a grocery store and a mid-level clothing department store. Today Fashion Square is more of a destination for tourists looking for a swanky desert oasis shopping experience and a place for the wealthy and financial elite to escape the proletariat masses. It's The Mall of America of the Southwest. Given the transformation Fashion Square has gone through, it's clear this Harkins theater needs to be redone or removed. It'll take more than a facelift. This theater sticks out like a whore in church not just as a contrast to the mall it lives in, but also among other Harkins Theaters that speckle the valley. It's one of the worst examples left... To be honest, it was never a very good theater. Many of the screening rooms are tiny and they clean it about as well as an 8th grader cleans his room. Sticky floors, empty wrappers, and a layer of crud on everything that you could scrape off with your fingernail - the crud probably being a mixture of milk dud coating, fake butter flavoring, and dead skin. The location is awful - it's stuck at the end of the food court. When there's a sneak preview, they have everyone line up on the upstairs walkway in the mall... not the best way to save a spot in line if you're handicapped and have to take the elevator. If there's a big movie out and somehow everyone wants to see it in this shit-hole, they have you spilling out into the food court dining area creating a traffic nightmare and a bit of a mess. What they need to do is remove a few theaters and expand the lobby so people can wait inside... they could also expand the small theaters. 5 screens is enough... Actually, a better use of the space would be to fill the theaters up with garbage and then fill in the Lobby and hallway with cement and turn the front into a Cinnabon or something.

Answer:
Awful service. I only would have given it a 2 because its nice to look at. But its way too hyped. If youre going to do fancy and simple do it right. Its quite pricy for the portions. And i think that any place that specializes in meat should at least cook a med rare steak right? And we got a charcuterie thinking it was going to be good. But the pate was not spreadable and everything was flavorless and tasted the same. Bleh!!!!! Lastly open kitchen means I can see your asses eating from the service station. I saw ever server, runner, and busser stuff thair face and then not wash their hands.
