A: I've tried a few places in Charlotte for Thai food to find the "one." When my sister and I came across this one we had try it and see what it was all about. I definitely agree about the wait, we were told 30 mins and it took close to 40-45 mins. Need less to say, the food was good. I was impressed they would take out the fish & oyster sauce from their noodles for vegetarians, that was a plus for me. One thing I will point out is the abundance of veggies you will get in your dish. If you don't want an entire garden you might want to ask which veggies come in the dish. I enjoyed the chili basil stir fry, but I could have done without the 101 veggies in it. I will recommend this place to others, but be mindful of the time.

A: You get what you pay for. I browsed hotels from priceline.com and found this hotel to be a lot cheaper than other hotels around the same area. The rooms were so,so... i just got the regular room with king size bed. i hate that they dont have any free bottled water. they only have an ice cube machine located at the end of the hallway outside the room. they dont have toothpaste and toothbrush inside the bathroom (coz they want people to buy stuff from the giftshop in the lobby). If you're looking for a place to sleep (like you dont care about how the room looks) then you can definitely book a room here, but if not, you better go somewhere else.

A: I really love the Cheesecake Factory. I know the menu is huge but that means I never go to the same restaurant twice! My favorite is the grilled eggplant sandwich. The Louisiana Chicken Pasta is also always a perfect choice. As for dessert...the tiramisu is fabulous. The only reason they are not getting five stars from me is that at this location, I have had crappy service twice. Indifferent servers who really seem to think they have something better they could be doing. The food though, always great. This is probably my favorite chain restaurant. The ice green tea they added to the menu about a year ago is so refreshing on a hot summer day and the best part...free refills! Love the green tea.

Q: negative

A:
If it were for the food, I would give a three or four star review, depending on what particular item. If it was the service, i would give one star. Two of us went for lunch, and sat down, ordered some drinks, and looked at the menu. The hostess was nice and friendly, and offered some thoughts on food. Then our server came. I believe she smiled 1.5 times in our hour sitting. A .5 when we sat down (it looked more like a grimace) and a HUGE smile when she brought our check and said I hope you enjoyed your meal (in other words, when tipping time came). The rest of the time she was angry, or perhaps heartbroken, or suicidal, or I do not know what. I understand bad days happen. Everyone has them. They are rough. But don't look at your customers like you are annoyed you have them, or angry that they came in. Especially when one is the nicest lady ever and friendly and cheerful and you just keep scowling at her. It looks bad. The pizza was enjoyable (a bit greasy, but hey, it is pizza). The salad we split (which, regardless of what they say, is not that small a salad) was fresh tasting, and I enjoyed it very much. The environment is nice, and it is an easy to find location. Hopefully the service picks up.
