A: I DO NOT recommend Sundance Grill at Silverton Casino. The service is awful. Me and 3 other friends shared an order of nachos and a special breakfast meal. It took 45 minutes to get our food AND the restaurant wasn't busy at all.

A: I've been searching for a restaurant that follows the true Naples (Napoli) tradition of pizza making for quite a while. In my journey I've discovered that it really comes down to the quality of ingredients, coupled with an oven that is made of the right materials, and is heated in a proper way. I'm happy to say that Settebello has NAILED it. Their pizza is as close to a true Neapolitan pizza as you can get, short of traveling to Naples itself. Slightly crispy on the bottom, soft on the top, and chewy delicious. The authentic flavor of tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, olive oil and basil - it doesn't get any better. The owner went out of his way to bring you a true taste from the birthplace of pizza, and it shows. Though they offer more styles of pizza than what is traditionally available (to suit the expectations of an American market probably), they do it within reason, and they keep it delicious. Literally everything we had there was great, from the prosciutto, to the caprese, to the absolutely perfect margherita pizza. If you want that Naples authentic pizza without having to travel to Italy, this is as close as you can get. Pro tip - stick to the marinara or margherita pizza if you want a true taste of Naples.... and for the love of all things holy, get the basil-wrapped prosciutto drizzled with their house balsamic. You will cry tears of joy.

A: I know some people avoid Walmart like the plague, but if you're going to go, this should be the one. This is definitely one of the cleanest Walmarts in the Valley. The "fresh" produce is hit or miss. Sometimes I'll find the perfect fruit/veggie, other times they look battered & bruised. There's a hot foods & prepared foods case, which I've never visited. Large frozen foods section. For veg*ns, they have mostly Morningstar (if you must) products, with like 1 or 2 Boca products, a few Gardein options, and Amy's products. (Savvy shoppers note: these products are sometimes cheaper at Whole Foods. Gasp!) They're no Barnes & Noble, but they have a decent (for Wally World) book selection for YA & other readers as well. There is a pharmacy in the middle of the store. It's kind of a cramped little area. Not a whole lot of waiting or wiggle room. Also inside is a McDonald's, Wetzel's (sp?) Pretzels, bank, vision center, and beauty salon-type place (unsure if they provide hair services or just sell the products). It's typically well-organized. Some things seem to being perpetually under-stocked, such as the gallons of water. Are they evaporating? (As hot as it gets, I wouldn't doubt this theory.) The way the check-out lanes are manned is a bit baffling at times. To avoid the crazy crowds, I like to visit this 24hr location either very late at night, or at the crack of dawn. Large parking lot (so you can park in East Jesus to keep your vehicle ding-free from flying car doors & darting carts), half of which was repaved in July 2014.

A:
I've been to Lola Rosa several times--well, I've been dragged there several times, to be honest--and I've never understood what all the fuss is about. I'm a huge fan of ultra-tasty vegetarian food, and this ain't it. Bland, bland, bland. The ambiance is warm and inviting. I've always had competent, polite service. Noise level is reasonable. It's right in the heart of the McGill Ghetto, so it's often crowded with student groups--not a good place to try to seat any party larger than 4. The problem is the food. I've had something different each time I've gone, and I've sampled bites from my companions' plates, and all of the food is unimpressive. Everything has always been cooked properly and served promptly, but that just makes it all the more apparent that this food has no flavor. It's precisely dishes like these that give vegetarian fare a bad name. It's filling enough, but it's just no fun to eat. Go to Aux Vivres instead, where they understand how to draw bold flavor out of vegetables.
