A: I've been to the Persian Room multiple times in the last ten years, ever since I moved to the area, and I have enjoyed it every time. (We came most recently on November 10, 2011.) Note: they also cater - my parents got Persian Room catered for their 25th anniversary (about 200 people) and everyone enjoyed it. The main attraction at the restaurant is the meat - most of the entrees consist of a large portion of meat, some vegetables, and a huge portion of delicious basmati rice. I have ordered several dishes from the chicken, lamb and beef sections, and have absolutely no complaints, so whatever you choose you will be delighted. The meat is always succulent and tender, and nicely spiced. Definitely try the hummus, as it is consistently delicious. On my thirteenth birthday (about ten years ago), the service was absolutely atrocious, but most other times I've been there, the service has been good. I've never needed a reservation, as the restaurant is always busy for dinner but not overcrowded.

Q: negative

A: The pharmacy at this location is horrible and they do not care about their customers. I recently dropped off a narcotic prescription at 10:45, I was told it would take 2 hours and to come back at 12:45. I came back at 1:20 to pick it up and was told that it was still not ready and to try coming back around 2:00. First, I think it is extremely unprofessional of the pharmacy to keep telling customers to come back later after they are given a time. If you are telling your customers that your prescription will be ready at such time, then it is your responsibility to make sure that happens. There has to be some semblance of order when putting together prescriptions. I use to be a pharmacy tech and I know that sometimes other people get pushed ahead of others. But continuously telling people to come back every 45 minutes to an hour and maybe your prescription will be done is completely off base and unfair to your customers. Fry's should train their pharmacy techs and pharmacists how to manage their time and how to actually tell time because it is obvious they only do what they want and not have any concern over their customers. Horrible pharmacy, try to go to Walgreens instead.

Q: negative

A: Absolutely terrible. The service in the bar section was awful because the restaurant was understaffed and to add to the poor service the food quality was inexcusable as it was overcooked and bland. We ordered calamari which I did not taste, sliders which were tiny pieces of crumbly dry meat on a bland bun. No sauce or garnish whatsoever. The sliders were served with about 8 fries and no condiments. We asked for ranch dressing sides upon ordering and didn't get it until 3o minutes later after having to ask several times. I ordered the fettuccini and it was also bland. It was served with a side salad that was prepped and stuck in a refrigerator who knows how long before being served. I could tell because it was all dried out and shriveled. I had to literally wait 25 minutes to get silverware AFTER my salad arrived at the table. It took forever in between drinks. We asked for Gran Marnier to be added to our margaritas and the waitress didn't even know what it was. Honestly this place needs more staff and better food to avoid an epic failure. The ONLY good things about this place is the decor was pretty cool and the musician performing live was actually pretty darn good. Forget getting a buzz though because it took so long between drinks. All in all this experience was extremely disappointing.

Q: positive

A:
"A 5 star fast food hamburger joint?" Yes. "Named 'In-N-Out?'" Yes. Insert copulatory motion joke here, if you must, but In-N-Out is more than just another euphemism for "the motion of the ocean." It's the best damn hamburger joint on the West Coast. Period. End of sentence. The "double-double animal style" with extra mayo and fresh cut fries cost under $6 and yet are a better meal in my mind than meals I've had in LV for 20 times the price. The fries are hot and crisp, but not hard. They are flaky and steamy starchy salty sticks sent from a loving New Testament kind of God. The "double-double animal style" burger means it has "hand-leafed lettuce, tomato, [two] mustard cooked beef patt[ies]; add pickle, extra spread with grilled onions." [http://www.in-n-out.com/menu/not-so-secret-menu.aspx] Now, that's a nice sized burger. I'm 6'1" and 205 and I left some behind. Not because I wanted to. Kids: listen to Unca Paul on this one. In-N-Out has a funny name and serious food. Not to be missed.
