A: I am not sure if I went to Ginza on an off-night, but my experience there was pretty bad. First of all, I would like to point out that the restaurant itself is a converted Five-and-Diner with an exterior that was made to look like like an old-fashioned soda shop. Ginza has thrown a gaudy, green neon sign on the chromed-out edifice of the old restaurant. I would not have stepped in to the place based on looks, but because it was the only sushi restaurant identified on Yelp to be near my location at the time, and because it had a four-star rating, I decided it was worth a shot. I sat at the sushi bar. The chefs seemed disinterested if not depressed. I am used to sushi chefs who are anxious to make me something, yelling out "What's next?" At Ginza, they seemed almost intimidated by the customer before them: me. The food was so-so. I was disappointed by the portions. The sushi was sliced so thin I would call it "miserly." I could understand if I had ordered all-you-can-eat, but I was eating a la cart. One test I have for a sushi restaurant is to see how fresh the mackerel is. Mackerel is a very fishy fish. I know this. I feel that if you do not have fresh mackerel you should not have mackerel on your menu. The mackerel at Ginza was extremely fishy and almost acidic as though it had been cured. Maybe that is a way to serve this type of fish, but I have never had it that way before and it was unpalatable. Once again, maybe I was there on an off-night. The only reason I would go back there is under the confidence of a trusted friend who knows sushi.
Q: negative

A: This was very disappointing! We came for breakfast right after they opened up for the morning on a Sunday, and the entire place smelled like cheap cleaning supplies which really did not help my appetite. The smell was almost overwhelming the whole time we were there. The service was very good and fast, definitely above average service. However, the food was mediocre to just bad and it was way overpriced for the quality. I had a spinach enchilada with beans and rice. The spinach enchilada tasted good, as things that are 1/2 sour cream can't help but do. It was low quality, high calorie and not very subtle. The rice was probably my biggest complaint. While it had a pleasant orange color, it tasted like... plain white rice that was a little too old. Sort of crunchy where it shouldn't be. The tortillas, salsa and chips tasted like they came from a grocery store. So all this would have been just fine if it hadn't cost like $11 each for our breakfasts. This being Arizona, I have higher standards for Mexican food and this was way too expensive.

Answer: This is my favorite burger anywhere. I frankly don't understand how you can not like their burgers. Compared to the competition of gourmet burgers out there this place is very very reasonably priced. Everything is always cooked perfectly with a nice crust on the patties and perfectly medium on the inside. I highly recommend the miyagi San, it is out of this world. I come here at least 2 times a month and never get sick of it, every one of my out of town friends have said its the best burger they've ever had. Can't recommend or enough

output: I finally got to the Golden Steer last night, and it was simultaneously more and less than what I expected/hoped for. From the minute you walk in the, the odd juxtaposition of a nice steakhouse in a shitty strip mall makes it self known. Two of the signs on the doorway - "PROPER ATTIRE REQUIRED" & "RESTROOMS ARE FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY" are so rarely seen together. However, once you're inside the double entry-way, you have no idea you're on in a rundown plaza on the wrong side of Sahara. There's a very nice looking bar/lounge area immediately at the entrance, and the maitre'd is to the right. We had reservations, just to be safe (I know, it's only Thursday), and were seated immediately. (The Marilyn Monroe booth, if it matters). The decor is nice, no doubt about it, and it pulls off that old steakhouse vibe very well, without feeling phony or pretentious. I was actually quite skeptical on this, but there were no disappointments there. Our waiter, who was a younger guy, and not the old dude everyone talks about, was cordial enough, but definitely didn't do anything amazing. On to the food... Appetizers: Toasted Ravioli - As Gordon H told me "Not gourmet by any means, but I love them." And that's what went through my head as I ate them. Good stuff, but you're not gonna confuse it for a fancy dish. Soup/salad: We skipped. The guy at the booth next to us ordered the Caeser though, and it looked good. Entree: 8oz Petit Filet: My guest had this, and she proclaimed it easily better than the bone-in filet at Joe's, but not better than Joe's ribeye. This really surprised me to hear, but I didn't taste it, so I can't confirm/disconfirm. 20oz? Ribeye: Pretty good, but not great.. I didn't get to finish it, so maybe it could've deserved better. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't kick it out of bed, but it doesn't stack up to the competition IMO. Sides: Twice-baked potato: Con bacon. My fucking lady friend said that it was good. I think it was too, but I couldn't compare. Creamed spinach: Not great. Sweet & too creamy, in both of our opinions. Definitely outdone by Joe's & Del Frisco's here. Onion rings: We both saw the onion rings, prominently displayed on the menu, and hoped that they were some extra special dish. They even had an aura emanating from them upon arrival, but ultimately they were just above-average beer-battered rings. Desert: Bananas Foster: The fucking business. Flambeed table-side, as it should be. Our man with the frying pan had some liquor ignition issues, so he had to run to the back and start fresh, but the 2nd take went just fine. And the dish was well worth the wait. My FLF said it was definitely amongst the best she's had. I really enjoyed it, but I haven't had enough others to compare. Overall, I wouldn't rush back here for the steaks. There was a lot of seafood on the menu, which may be excellent for all I know. I will be returning to try the chicken/veal parmigiana, and definitely for deserts. Cool place though, and if I wasn't aware of other places I liked better, I'd probably come here a helluva lot more often.

A:
Five Guys... What cannot be said about this place? I stumbled upon it last October in Saratoga Springs, NY, where we decided to eat at Chipotle for lack of anything else recognizable. I saw the Five Guys next door, and decided to try it out instead of having another bland Chipotle burrito. Needless to say, when I ran into another Five Guys in Ithaca two days later, I knew I had to eat there for lunch. Since they opened here in the Valley a month or so ago, I've had to restrain myself. If it weren't for the guaranteed heart attack that would occur were I to dine at Five Guys twice a day, I think I would probably do so. I should point out that, before I ate at Five Guys, In-N-Out was my favorite fast food burger joint. But the food at Five Guys is simply superior. The burgers are tastier and have more options, and the fries are an order of magnitude better. The only issue I have with this place is that the price is admittedly steep, but when you consider how much food you get, it's not too unreasonable. If you stick to the Little Hamburger, which is still probably more filling than a normal fast food burger, you could probably get a meal for inside $8, but that meal will still be more substantial than a normal $6 fast food burger meal. On the upside, however, the price might have the fortunate side effect of discouraging rowdy kids who could care less about the quality of their burger.
