A: Just had lunch here, as it was located close to my (new) apartment. The first thing you'll note going in, is it's a storefront restaurant. My expectations were rather low, but it was convenient, and it was Chinese food, always a plus. Entering, my hopes lifted a bit. The restaurant has a full bar, in front of which are one set of tables, then a glass separator, with a door leading to open air patio style seating. Nice, breeze atmosphere, despite the locale. "Have a seat anywhere" said the manager. I chose to sit out in the open air patio area. The view isn't that great; just part of the parking lot and the shops, but the weather was nice. The waitress was by almost immediately with a glass of water and a menu. The lunch combinations were all priced well; I was ready to order almost immediately, getting the Gang Pang Chicken (not in response to Mark B's review, but on my own initiative. I always find it safest to order chicken in Chinese restaurants; beef and pork I find are more easily under or over cooked; chicken for some reason tends to come out right more often than not). The food arrived in a cute little compartmentalized serving tray; a small salad in one compartment, an egg roll in another, a crab puff in another, a selection of sweet and sour sauce and horseradish mustard in another, rice in another, and lastly the entry. Kudos on presentation. The entry was quite good, though I'm not as big a fan of General Tso's style dishes (again, with a nod toward Mark B.), and the description had led me to believe I'd be getting more vegetables in it (that's a problem I have with all Chinese restaurants). Definitely worth ordering if you like that style of thing though. The salad was okay, mostly lettuce, with a sweet dressing and wonton noodles on it. The egg roll was subpar, and the crab puff was, as noted by Heather C, mostly cream cheese, little crab. All in all though, I left feeling -extremely- full, and with my wallet barely lighter. Not including tip, my meal, plus a coke, was under $9. If you're looking for a good, quick Chinese place, and happen to be in the area, this is not a bad choice at all. Definitely worth a go.

A: I was lucky to walk for free one night of Luminarias. I've been to the garden many times during the day, and a special walk to see the plants that bloom in the night. This is more of a romantic/melancholic walk, breath the oxygen been produced and with a clear night, watch some stars (or all the planes landing!)

A: GET THE FEZ BURGER, SIDE OF SWEET POTATO FRIES. that's it. the fez burger is honestly one of the best burgers ive ever had the privilege of putting in my mouth. true, its not the traditional burger, but the ciabatta(sp?) bread and the whatever juiciness sauce they have on it will win you over. if its your first time here, dont bother looking at the menu. succumb to the sweet deliciousnessosity of the fez burger. side note: the decor + the friday night crowd + the "v.i.p. table booth" made me feel like i was eating at fancy pants austin powers club of the future. the outdoor patio crowd also appeared to thoroughly enjoy every time phoenix's shiny new light rail transit system whoosh'd by.

Q: negative

A:
After all the great reviews of Kilroy's I decided to try them for lunch yesterday. I was disappointed with the "Best hamburger in Las Vegas". For $9.00 I got a burnt burger, a large bun, only a slice of tomato and lettuce leaf (nothing else). Not what I expected, I doubt I will be going back.
