Q: Well.. the death song is again being sung at this place i fear. Another concept change? Come on guys get something good and stick with it. There's a revolving door of foods, menus, concepts and thought patterns going through this place "where neighbors meet." Actually, I've run out of neighbors that will go to this place any more. One thing about the food biz - can you say CONSISTENCY? Every time we've gone there the last few months it's something different or the menu has changed again. (and I'm still pissed at that day old 1/4" meatloaf sandwich for $13.) Things go on, things come off. The food is wondering around somewhere between Frankfurt spaetzle and California pasta with some burgers and garlic pizza thrown in just to make sure they cover all the culinary bases. This place could be cool with an outdoor patio good to enjoy the weather, some TVs and a big screen (although the cage fighting is a bit much during our dinner), and some of the bartenders are good although drinks are inconsistent from one to the next. (geez i hate that Pope lime mix - buy some limes and do some fresh sour mix for change) Anyhow, for our group, we'll find another place to hang until this place changes hands and someone with actual food and management experience takes over and gives the area what it wants. Hate to see places go by the way side but then again, why spend money when you don't know what you're getting from one visit to the next. With this place I'm always afraid our next visit will feature corn dogs on a stick with spinach and clam based BBQ sauce. Good luck guys.

Q: PROS: great fitness center, functional kitchen, big room, comfortable bed, large jacuzzi tub, simple hotel layout, complimentary wifi. CONS: less than welcoming service, peanut skins all over the carpet, disgustingly dirty balcony glass panels, cheap/chipped table tops and shelves, a pool located in a wind tunnel with trash and cigarette butts collecting under chairs, no beets for the beet salad. This place is perfect for college students looking to party on the cheap. You can pack several people into one room, and the kitchen can save you from paying for over-priced hotel food. If you care about service, quality, or class, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Q: I decided to schedule a blow dry and makeup application at the last minute for a business photo shoot. (Platinum Entourage was recommended by a journalist I have a lot of respect for so I felt confident giving it a try. I also loved that they have a menu of styles so I knew my options before I even walked in. I have naturally curly hair I like blown straight and I've had some bad experiences in the past, so I'm nervous taking chances!) A day later I'm *still* blown away by my incredible experience here. The fabulous service started the minute I called to book the appointment. The owner, creative director, other execs and staff were extraordinarily attentive and warm. They make sure the client is happy, pampered. comfortable and cared for at every moment. Todd, the owner, is creative, fun and brilliant. He had some great ideas about a style that would work well with my face shape. The team at Platinum Entourage truly transformed me and accented my features to make me look my best. I walked out feeling fabulous. While I'm loyal to a hair stylist and makeup artist locally, I still plan to return to Platinum Entourage. On this particular day, my schedule was really tight so the fact that I could get my hair and makeup done at the same location in a short amount of time was hugely beneficial. They don't need advance notice for appointments and the location is convenient to my home and office.
