Place was clean, food is ok, but rather pricey considering what you get. Menu is nothing amazing, I ordered the mango chicken rice plate and there was no real "pop" to the dish, just real bland and the chicken tasted rather gamey since the flavor of the sauce was so weak. My wife ordered the pork bun vermicelli bowl. Again it was ok, but nothing spectacular and very small portion. Considering all the wonderful Vietnamese food there is in Phoenix I would go else where for half the price. Service also is lacking, waited at front door for 5 min before anyone even approached us to sea us, and the place was empty.

Guter Gasthof mit gutem Essen. Die Bedienung war aufmerksam und unaufdringlich. Das Rumpsteak habe ich auch kurz vor Kuchenschluss noch so bekommen, wie ich es bestellt habe. Vorbestellung oder Reservierung ist empfehlenswert, sonst kann es passieren, dass die Stube voll ist oder eine geschlossene Gesellschaft drinnen.

They changed the fricken recipes! the crepes used to be much better until the menu change after October 2012. My favorite crepe used to be the apple crepe and they used to caramelize the apples and it would be warm. Now they have raw, sour, cold granny smith apples with the skins still on smothered in some cold caramel sauce. i guess they changed it because its quicker and cheaper.I actually returned the crepe and told them the new menu change sucks. Why do places always have to mess with a good thing?

Would give Schwartz 10 stars if I could!! This is a must when you are in Montreal. For a NY'er's palate, smoked meat is equivalent to pastrami -- however, with one exception -- because Schwartz's smoked meat is orgasmic. We arrived mid-day on a weekend and there was no wait! We ordered a couple of the smoked meat sandwiches with mustard, cherry coke, fries, and pickles to complete the whole package. Schwartz's smoked meat is tender, juicy, and flavorful -- in my opinion, best when it is hot and steaming! Next time I am back in town, guarantee I will be back for more of Schwartz's.
