Problem: First time visit....I had two things on the menu. - the chicken satay appetizer - pad thai the chicken was just ok, but it the peanut sauce had the flavor and consistency of peanut butter heated in oil. As for the pad thai, i'm not one of those pad thai snobs who went to phuket on vacation and now no Americanized pad thai is good enough for me. having said that, i was not impressed at all with the pad thai here. a big pile of noodles with little or no flavor except a sweetness that had a hint of the sauteed peanut butter from the chicken satay. the chicken was flavorless clumps as were the tofu. despite the bean sprouts, oily peanut clumps, etc, it was devoid of a variety in texture. I usually enjoy the the cool bean sprouts, the crunch of ground peanuts, the way the egg and tofu saturate with flavor, the acid and spice of lime/tamarind/pepper. ALL OF THIS was missing from this meal. $19 later, very disappointed since this was the highest rated thai restaurant in the area. despite this, will not be going back. Pad Thai is supposed to be the signature thai dish. I mean, it has thai in the name. if you can't do that right........?

Problem: I'm not a fan of the Panera in Oakland. Often when I have been there the salads have no dressing on them or are missing a vital piece. Last time I went I ordered a breakfast sandwich on a bagel and they pressed it on a panini press making it flat as a pancake and burnt. Very unappealing.

Problem: If you're looking for a sports bar Teakwoods at Indian School is NOT the place! I had high hopes for Teakwoods but was really dissapointed. Most of the TVs are from 1990! There are a few flat screens but they are so small you can't really watch a game. The food was OK but not great. Limited beer on tap. I think this place is best for families that want to take their kids out to dinner. Very casual and you can throw peanut shells on the floor. The style and atmoshere where really boring including the bar area. Service wasn't shabby.

Problem: I'm from California and have had lots of good pho... this place is great. The broth taste really good and the noodles are perfect. Great pho for sure. We also ordered the chicken wings and egg rolls... they were just okay, still good through. Typically when I'm in Vegas, I only eat at Earls or the big buffets. I love pho for a cheap recovery meal after a long weekend of drinking, and this is the go to place! Great service and I'll definitely be back when I'm in town and feeling like pho. Then I happen to always run into cute girls there lol
