A: I've been here twice and have mixed feelings. Once I came for lunch and had a pretty good turkey club sandwich and as an appetizer my friend and I shared kobe beef sliders. He got a salmon plate with asparagus. I couldn't complain then. My sandwich was good and the presentation of his salmon plate was gourmet. But on a separate occasion I returned for a dinner and my experience was just mediocre. I paid $50 for a burger and my g/f's sandwich. My burger was dry and uneventful and the fries were kinda cold. We didn't get top notch service from our waiter... Outta all the places in Vegas to chow down this place needs to "step their game up"!

Q: positive

A: As Goodwill stores go, this location is definitely a five star destination. We've had luck here with children's toys & books, furniture and household items, the result of the demographics of the surrounding area, I guess. Nicely laid out and well maintained. As an added bonus, there are also some pretty good restaurants nearby for when you are finished shopping. Pricing is generally very reasonable, but like all Goodwill stores around Phoenix, some of the prices are set a little high with the idea that you'll be getting a discount of some type. The best deals are every other Saturday when everything in the store is half price. Sundays are 25% off days for teachers. Tuesdays are 25% off for 55 year old plus shoppers. A designated color of tag will also always be half price, changing each week. Look for the sign near the entrance. Perhaps the easiest discount is the online coupon, usually 20% off a $10 or more purchase, emailed monthly when you sign up. Be aware new or holiday merchandise will not be included in any of the discounts. That said, Goodwill is all about scoring a deal AND helping out the community. This Goodwill has a lot of friendly employees, living reminders of the good work Goodwill is doing. No guarantee that you'll find the bargain of your life, but come on in for some entertaining browsing and support Goodwill. Bring a donation for them to sell. And round up your purchase price to the next dollar when you check out.

Q: negative

A: This little hole-in-the-wall, gay-friendly place is decked out with kitchy ceramic pigs and has a cozy diner feel. It's a local spot that's open 24 hours in the Village and a great place to get late-night poutine after the bars let out...but that's about it. The food is simple Quebecoise comfort food (poutine, hot chicken sandwiches, pudding Chomeur) and breakfast items but it's nothing you couldn't make at home. The portions are large- do not try to tackle an order of poutine by yourself and the prices are reasonable. A big downside is the staff. I've gotten attitude there from one male employee on a few occasions and I still don't know why. That alone is a huge letdown. I hate when staff acts annoyed by patrons- I get it, you'd rather not be here but it's what you signed up for (this is coming from a person who's done their time in the food service industry.) I really want to like this place but the unmemorable and sometimes bland food just doesn't do it for me.

Q: negative

A:
Food was a bit pricey. Shrimp Lomein was dark colored and thinned tasteless noddles. They didn't deliver something as simple as duck sauce! And the wonton soup was horrible! Wontons were kinda like dumplings, except they don't serve dumplings. And the texture of the "wonton's dough" was thin, and tasted nothing like a decent soup.... Anyways; the eggroll was really good! I think they gave us a 3rd one for free, and it had me craving for more! But unfortunately, I doubt we will order again from them.
