A: Manuel's has always been a safe, solid choice for Mexican food. It has always done the job. I haven't been in for a couple years so when I went last night, I was pleased that not much has changed. We started out with the Texas margaritas. They are HUGE. Delicious and worth every cent. But POTENT. I have a high alcohol tolerance, especially when it comes to tequila, but my husband couldn't even finish his because he has a low tolerance for tequila and he was the DD. So I finished his. :) Salsa and chips were good. Salsa was very fresh tasting. I wish the chips were hotter and crispier. They tasted like the generic chips you buy at the store. My husband ordered the 3 amigos enchilada plate. He said it was really good. I tasted the spinach enchilada that came with the plate, and I concur that it was really tasty. I had the chili relleno plate which I'm still scratching my head over. I must have had over a million chili rellenos in my life but never one like this. The chili wasn't dipped in a batter, it was just wrapped in egg. I was disappointed by this dish. I know the that the batter for chili rellenos contains mostly egg, but it's not pure egg. It has a little flour, milk, and sometimes baking powder to make it fluffy. The sauce that covered it wasn't very saucy. It was green chilis and onion basically. The whole thing wasn't terrible, just disappointing. Beans and rice were still delish though. I am still rounding up to 4 stars because everything else I have had at Manuels has been great. Cheese enchiladas, their gigantic cheese crisps... all delicious and satisfying. And their service is always excellent. I will just avoid the chili relleno from now on.

Q: negative

A: No thanks. I came here because the name and logo sounds so healthy; so light; so refreshing. It is none of those things. I had a "japanese terriyaki bowl" with brown rice. It was literally drenched in terriyaki sauce. I recommend inquiring whether it is possible to order sauce on the side. The vegetables were dripping in some sort of oil. You may as well just go to Burger King or Carls Junior down the hall.

A: I should have done some research and read te reviews on Budget before booking! But I did book through Priceline and chose the cheapest option because I thought I only needed it to get my parents, brother and I to and from the airport. Shuttle and taxi would have costed the same or more. So everything was well when I arrived, I was greeted by a nice lady at the front. No one in line, what could go wrong? The wait was about 15 minutes, still acceptable-no complaints. Rico was the associate who helped us. He deserves ZERO stars. He goes through half of the process without saying much then he asks would I just need basic coverage OR full liability coverage (or something equivalent). No option for no coverage, keep in mind. So instinctly I said basic, however after a few seconds I asked him if it was going to cost extra cause I won't need it if it was. He starts to give me his spiel and practically forces on me. He asks what insurance I have and what my deductible is and everything. I politely rejected his offer and he gives us the most horrible attitude. He just tells me to sign without telling me where, and after I signed in the wrong area, he just throws the paper back at me and asks me to sign again without pointing out where! My brother couldn't handle it anymore and starts arguing with him and that's when Rico pretends to be nicer. This is ridiculous. I don't know if Budget requires your associates to sell or if there is a big incentive. Either way, cut it out! It's annoying and gives your customers a bad experience! The one star that they do deserve is their price. My family ended up staying an extra night and I had tried to call Budget to extend my rental but NO ONE ever picks up the phone. This was during business hours too. I even tried their 1-800 number and for some reason they couldn't help me. So I ended up thinking I would pay a lot for late fees and an extra day, however it was only about $30 more. Never going to book Budget McClarren again.

A:
I can't say it enough. I love Sushi Roku. We came back this past Friday for my girlfriend's 30th. Everyone LOVED it. The food was delicious. The service was prompt. The drinks were tasty (I couldn't resist ordering the Lychee Martini again). The ambiance was incredible. We were an hour early for our reservation and they still sat us with no issue! Pricing is very reasonable (for dining on the Strip) and the staff was super friendly. We had the Baked Crab Handroll (yummy), Albacore Tuna sushi (the fish melted in your mouth and the rice didn't fall apart), and the Rock Shrimp Tempura with Jalapeno roll. DIVINE. Everyone scarfed their meal down. I can't wait to go back again.
