Q: As a bar, this place actually has the propensity to be something incredible. As it is, it's really chill and great and I like to kick it there when I have a chance. With a few slight modifications, I could picture Time Out Lounge being transformed into my permanent hang out. You ever seen that movie Mean Streets? I could totally see me being Harvey Keitel and Time Out Lounge being my permanent hangout spot. I love the amount of pool tables and the dartboard and the internet jukebox. I like the whole layout of the bar. It's very cool and most of the bartenders are really nice. One of my favorite touches is the tables that have endless amounts of various graffiti in the form of "fuck you's" "so-and-so was here" and strange political points and counterpoints that it all blends together into a nonsensical collage of intoxication. Brilliant. The bathrooms are awesome. There are murals that have a lot going on. It's really fantastic after you've had a few pitchers. If you're ever in this part of Tempe and want to have a couple beers and shoot pool, Time Out will do a damn good job.

Q: Last night I told the waitress I was allergic to dairy. She came back and told me the chef said not to eat the mayonnaise, because eggs are dairy. I tried to explain that eggs come from chickens and dairy comes from cows. But neither the waitress nor the chef would believe me, that eggs are not dairy. Our steak was good, all of our sides were terrible. Considering that we pay major cash for the four of us, our food should have been excellent, not decent. We won't be returning.

Q: While I enjoy the food and atmosphere, the service needs improvement. My biggest complaint lately has to be the rude hostess. We had business clients in town this week and wanted to seat a party of seven for lunch. Since they don't take reservations, I called about 15 minutes ahead to give them a heads-up we were on our way. I did not realize that a coworker also called 15 minutes prior for the same reason. When we arrived, the hostess seemed really put-out that we had called her TWICE and generally had such a rude demeanor that even our out-of-town clients commented on it. Then she proceeded to seat us at a table that was too small to accomodate 7 people. We actually had to squeeze 2 people at the head of the table, which was very uncomfortable. Seeing as how the restaurant was half empty, I think she could have been more accomodating. The host/hostess is the "first impression" for any restaurant, and this woman was definitely a sour note. Perhaps the Vig should make her a dishwasher instead?

Q: I received a Belk watch for Christmas. I took it in to have some links taken out. The section was not busy. I looked around and stood there while the "sales" lady did this that and the other including walking around me, behind me and plainly acted as though I was invisible. This went on for about 10 +minutes. When another pair walked up, she suddenly was all helpful ...to them! I did say "Excuse me I've been waiting here for..." She pretended that she hadn't seen me and made an under breath comment. I said "I'll see if I can get a manger to help". I went to the jewelry counter and the lady called the manager. The manager came up to me and I explained what had happened. All I wanted was to get my watch fixed and be treated like every other customer, instead the tall, thin, short-haired manager told me they were busy, I needed to go back to the same rude "sales" associate and that she had another customer she needed to get to. So not only was I invisible to the sales clerk, I was essentially told that another customer was more important and deserving of service than me. At this point, I was walking back to my car in tears because I have never been treated so rudely and made to feel like I didn't count as much as anyone else in the store. I had decided to just mail the watch back to my mom and let her return it. But I shouldn't have to mail it back, so I turned around and went back in. I did ask for another manager and she was very apologetic, attentative and was willing to get my watch fitted. However, at this point I just wanted to do a return and leave...never to return! I was also going to buy boots after getting my watch fitted. Not only did they lose a sale, they had to do a return ( no exchange), and I will never shop at Belk again. I have been a Belk shopper for over 15 years.
