A: Sunday Funday... We decided not to go to EBC and hit up the M Resort. This is my first time here, with Hunnie Bunnie in tow. That being said we stayed in the main pool area, not Day Dream... Lots of lounge chairs, including some IN the water, and a FEW umbrellas for shade. They could definitely step up their game on the shade situation, but we had an umbrella so no REAL complaint here. They also have daybeds and cabana rentals available - I'm not sure how much those cost but they looked nice. We enjoyed our day at the pool, the water was refreshing and the sangria was GOOD!! Cocktail servers seemed hard to come by, especially the one for our section since we asked TWO other cocktail servers if we could order some stuff - the first one said she would get our server and nobody ever came by. The second server we waved down said she wasnt our server either, but she would take our order and pass it on. NO server EVER came back and the bartender was the one who delivered our goods. Either way it was a great day and I will definitely be back to this pool and also hopefully check out Day Dream Pool.

A: Stay away from this place. Don't waste your money (or time for that matter)! I just moved to the neighborhood and ordered a medium pizza with extra cheese and mushrooms. For starters, they botched my order the first time and put sausage on it... I'm allergic to sausage. The first thing I noticed was that the mushrooms were out of a can and the pizza looked cheap in general. They replaced the pizza and big surprise... THEY GOT IT WRONG AGAIN. This time it had pepperoni on it. Again, I noticed how cheap the toppings looked not to mention they were really cheap about it. They really skimp on toppings!! They replaced the pizza again and this time they finally got it right. The pizza tasted mediocre at best and I should have just gotten Domino's or Pizza Hut or even Little Caesars instead. This was a total waste of time and money and I will never order from here again. This is the first internet review I've EVER written about anything but I felt that I had to do my duty as a consumer and let the public know about my experience. This place is terrible. I'm not kidding when I say I would rather have the cheapest frozen pizza over this junk. Cheap skimpy toppings and terrible customer service.

A: Really?? This is Batali's take on gourmet burgers? Before I rail on the burger, let's give some love to the things that were solid. Nutella milk shake that my buddy had was simply outstanding! The Beer selection is solid, with enough craft beer on tap and by the bottle to pair with any of the burgers. The fried pickles and the sauce for dipping was also a table favorite. Now when it comes to what should have been the star of the show, the burger, disappointment abounded at our table. The menu does offer what should be some appealing options but when they arrived the were really more akin to a Carls Jr $6 burger than a $15 gourmet burger. Nothing special on the patty and the bun frankly looked like something they had gotten from the bakery section at the local supermarket. If they were not pricey it would not be a big deal, but with the name on the door you expect big things and B&B simply doesn't deliver. I live in Southern California, home to some of the best gourmet burgers in the country. If this place opened there it wouldn't last 6 months. Come on Mario, this is fixable, were talking burgers here!

A:
I LOVE HNJ as I always have since the original location in Las Vegas many years ago. I came here with my fiance for the "soft" grand opening while visiting this dessert state as I call it. LOL. And I still prefer HNJ over BC. Glad to see them expanding to other states, so others can experience the great taste of seafood. OH, and make sure to say hello to my favorite person who works there, Jesse Sanders! Give him a big hug for me! ^^ This guy works his butt off! Though, I am always skeptical of new locations because sometimes the flavors are not consistent as what I remember from the original spot. They were pretty spot on for the most part. It all comes down to the sauces. All their sauces are really really good. By far, I like it much better than Boiling Crab (too buttery if you ask me) .....:/ But, I felt the extra spicy HnJ sauce could be an little spicier.(hint hint ;)) The medium HnJ that I usually get was very good, and garlicky. Food: What did we eat?...We had the king crab legs of course as it is my favorite, shrimp, and clams with the HnJ medium, and crawfish etouffee. Very good and well cooked and seasoned. This stew of yuminess and butteriness of a lot of crawfish and veggies over white rice is soooooo good! Also, the raw oysters on the half shell were deliciously sweet and fresh! :) Service: OK, so here is where I have to admit they do need some brushing up on. Understand that opening up a new joint and mind you, this place gets PACKED and I am sure the servers had no idea of the kind madness this restaurant can bring, b/c of its POPULARITY, so give them a break if they messed up on your order. I do think they need to organize better on who is serving who and assign them to sections of the restaurant, so they know what designated area they are to service, and have them memorize tables and such. Only 1 or at most 2 servers should be assigned to a table, instead of having random servers b/c everyone gets confused. I am a high believer in service, as I am in the service industry myself, in other ways and customers should be a little more understanding on newbees b/c this place causes extremely HIGH traffic for a good reason-for the damn FOOD! Service will definitely follow in place as time passes, and for those of you who bashed them on the food, let's be real...these guys are still in training and getting to know the product more and more each and every day. Obviously, they are doing something right..b/c YOU are eating here, have already ate here, have thought of eating here, wish you were eating here, and wanting to eat here. So EFF the reviews and see for yourself why this company is EXPANDING. :) Yummy!!! Definitely, one of my favorite grub and grind kinda place. Love how they give you a bib to wear and they have gloves if you need. But, we always bring our own surgical gloves because they fit better on my tiny fingers. Xp And do not wear your finest threads as you may get sauce spashes on you and stink like garlic. I don't even bring in my purse for that matter. Otherwise, enjoy the silence while I grub.
