Problem: I really like this bar! I can understand though how it's not for everyone. Personally, the man and I were tired of the overpriced, trendy martini lounges on the strip. We'd seen this on "No Reservations" with Anthony Bourdain (or Anthony Disdain as I call him) and since I generally agree with his opinion we thought we'd give this place a try. Bottom line, it's a dive bar with cheap drinks, cool people, excellent juke box and is open 24 hours. It's definitely more for underground or punk rocker types but I'd say as long as your cool and not a priss then you'd be fine here. I read in a guide book that the bathrooms are totally gross, maybe it's the type of bars usually go to but I didn't think these were bad?? If we ever go back to Vegas, we'll definitely visit Double Down Saloon. For those who do like this bar, and are in Chicago, go to Liars Club, similar vibe / clientele / music etc.

Problem: Honestly I don't get it. I went to Dos Gringos with a good friend of mine last weekend. I had never been to Phoenix before so I was excited to see what the city had to offer. After entering Dos Gringos we sat at our table for 21 minutes before a waitress came to our table. She brought us 2 beers and never came back. After 40 minutes we decided to check out a new bar since we obviously weren't welcomed at Dos Gringos. So we went up to the bar where I waited for 5 minutes so the bartender could take some pictures and shots with her friends. What I didn't understand was there were maybe only 20 people there and at least 6 people working. If I was the owner or manager I would be embarrassed to say that you run that establishment. I will never return and I highly recommend you stay away from Dos Gringos as you will be disappointed.

Problem: Soba is Big Burrito's take on Asian fusion. As with everything concerning Big Burrito, Soba is excellent in all departments. It is next door to Umi (Big Burrito's sushi place) in a trendier area of Shadyside. The space is elegant--a waterfall adorns the interior. Lighting is dark as is the decor--as with most Big Burrito establishments. There is plenty of space between tables and such--you can take a date here and you should. The food is excellent. Dishes are inventive (not your normal Asian fusion dishes here) and well presented. The quality of the ingredients is top-notch (my tuna tar tare tasted very fresh). As a note, tasting menus are not available--two specials seemed to offered every night. The menu seems to change by season as well. Soba's wine and whiskey selection is extensive--10 pages for wine, 4 for whiskey. The service is excellent, as is to be expected. Really, everything here is great. You should go at least once, Soba is a gem in the rough of the Pittsburgh dining scene.

Problem: What? The waffles have chunks of sugar in them? What?!?! This is officially the best place ever. I never thought I'd love a waffle until I tried the waffles here. You may be detered by the small size of the waffles in the showcase. But really, the waffle itself is pretty heavy, and it only gets heavier by adding on toppings (which is a must). So it's actually the perfect size. By the end of my first waffle, I felt like I was borderline hyperglycemia diabetic. Perfectly borderline. Definitely try to check in and get their deals if they're offering. I paid 5$ for my waffle including powdered sugar, nutella, strawberries, and whipped cream. Not only is the food good, the place itself is like a cute cafe with small tables and outside seating. On a nice day, I wouldn't mind my party running late so I can chill on the shaded tables outside.
