Problem: I'm a little hesitant to write such a poor review of a new business but I feel the need to let others know about the experience my friend and I encountered at this so called 'salon' , especially since I saw another deal posted online today. A friend and I purchased a deal for the severely discounted mani/pedi service through Google Deals and should have been wary of such a good deal. I believe it is just the one lady and scheduling the appointment took several phone calls and texts and weird conversations with a so call business partner. I finally received a call back and after some discussion about accommodating my friend and I at the same time, it was decided that she could bring in a 'friend' and get us done at the same time so one didn't have to wait. As Shar B stated, this is not in a salon but a rather small room within a building complex with limited space. There are two tables and a small love seat where they perform the pedicures. There is a limited amount of colors to pick from since as she stated, she was just starting out. Fair enough. The manicure turned out okay but I think she talked more than actually worked on my nails and my cuticles were barely trimmed. One of the main reasons I go for a manicure. At one point, she started to look for a tool and realized she had left it in her purse from an event the night before and went to retrieve it. I was shocked as she then started to use the tool on me! The other alarming part of all of this is, the two women talked in depth about the cleanliness of other salons and about how dirty they were and what kind of infections you could get. I'm no sanitization expert but I'm pretty sure pulling a tool out of your purse is NOT sanitized. We moved on to the pedicure and it was just as bad. My feet were placed in a bowl of water that had been brought in from another room since there is no running water in the room. I believe some hand soap was added to the water just before I put my feet in. Fancy. At one point she even forgot to put a second coat of polish on my big toe. Another thing I would like to mention was the conversation. We were told at length about how little they were making on the deal and she had hoped people would tip on the real value of $92 rather than the deal price. Yikes, now she's expecting $15-20 tip. In addition, we got to listen to some other stories that made both my friend and I raise a few eyebrows. Overall, it was a very odd, alarming, unprofessional and uncomfortable experience for close to two hours. I felt like my friend and I could have done a better job at home doing it ourselves...for free. At several times during the service I thought about just getting up and walking out. I don't like giving such a poor review of someone just starting their business but this 'business' needs some serious help. I would NEVER go back based on the service performed. Had I gotten this deal through Groupon, I would have requested a refund immediately from Groupon. Sorry.

Problem: I went in here today and cannot agree more with the first reviewer. I actually live a few miles north of here and have access to several grocery stores, but I would much rather buy local and support a business helping the neighborhood...but this is not about me! The store has lots of staple grocery items like pasta, peanut butter, condiments, snacks, etc. But what is really great are all of the local items like salsa, honey, bread, hummus, and a nice variety of local produce. Everything is great quality and very reasonably priced, even the specialty and 'gourmet' items. I hope a lot of folks support this store so it stays in business.

Problem: We came here on a Tuesday evening and ordered 1. Black widow roll and Island special roll for 12.97 2. Classic loco moco lunch for 8.22 - In the Plaza Hotel Casino. - Order at cashier. Being in a casino, I'd think they seat us and have a waiter take our order but it's pretty much like L&L's way of ordering. - 50% off Regular, Specialty and baked rolls 3-6pm only! Great deal. - 15% off Yelp check-in. Stacie hooked it up "with dat 20% DOE! Yea, buddy!" Probably a mistake on her part. - Can't use the 50% Sushi and 15% check in combo. Come with a friend, 2 transactions. One sushi and the other non-sushi. - Black Widow: Soft shell crab, cucumber with avocado, tobiko and eel sauce on top. The tobiko make it look like the black widow. Soft shell crab was "too soft", non-existent crunch, avocado was fresh. It was ayteee. - Island Special: The most popular roll. Spicy soft shell crab with spicy tuna, eel sauce and spicy aioli on top. Spicy tuna was too mushy. - Rolls weren't impressive but for that price, I can't complain too much! Happy tummy! - Burger was thick. lots of white rice and gravy. Average gravy taste. 2 sunny side up eggs. Mac salad tasted a bit "grainy", like a potato salad. Not the best Loco moco I've tried in Vegas, but still good. - If you're looking for an average tasting HI/JPN restaurant at a SUPERB deal, come here! I'm definitely coming back for more.
