A: Went there last night with a co-worker for the first time. We both are veggie's so both got different kinds of veggie dogs. As far as veggie dogs are considered, I really need them to be cooked split open on a grill for them to taste good. These were just heated up in some boiling water. So already, that just really turned me off to them before I even took a bite. The dogs were alright--- semi-loaded with toppings, but they weren't anything special. I definitley needed two hotdogs to fill me up. For the price, I expected more. Customer service there was pretty lacking. While one of the guys was pretty nice, the other guy... needed some customer service training. After browsing the menu for about 5 minutes, we started to place our orders. Hot dog server #2 gruffly said, "Next time you guys are going to order veggie dogs, make sure you let us know in as soon as you walk in because they take awile." We responded we weren't in a rush, so no need to worry about the time! He responds, "Yeah, but we like to get 'em out fast so next time let us know." This guy also spent a lot of time looking down at his phone, which was especially rude when he was in the middle of a coversation with another patron at the place. I did love the lime green interior. It's quite a small place, so don't expect to take a big group there and have room to sit inside. There are a few small tables for people to sit at. All in all, I have been to much better hot dog shops.
Q: positive

A: I came here for dinner before my friend's bachelorette party festivities. We'd made a reservation because there were six of us, but when we arrived it didn't seem that busy. We probably could have done without the reservation, even though it was a Saturday night. First they seated us "outside." It was SO loud - to the point that we actually asked to be moved inside. I wouldn't necessarily recommend sitting out there, unless you're a bit closer to the restaurant side. We ordered a bottle of champagne to celebrate - it was pretty good, but I forget the name. One girl in our group accidentally spilled two of the glasses; the server and bussers were helpful in immediately getting it cleaned up, but then the server brought two new glasses. That was nice of him, except then he charged $9 apiece. I get that you need to make money, but don't bring glasses, act like they're complimentary because we had a spill situation, then charge us. I'd have preferred he ask us if we wanted to pay for more. I ordered the pesto fettuccine. It was meant to come with shrimp, which I don't eat, so I was able to order it without and pay less. It was good; definitely something I'd order again. One girl in our group really wanted fettuccine Alfredo, which they made for her even though it wasn't on the menu. It was definitely good food; everyone was pretty happy with theirs. Our server was friendly and quick. The champagne situation was a little annoying but overall, it was a pretty good experience.
Problem: What would be an example of an negative (OPTIONS:

Answer: Our experience at notion with a lowercase 'n' began well. I made reservations on their website, and they responded within 2 hours about some of the details I put regarding my girlfriends food allergies, specifically dairy and tree nuts. Jennifer answered me with several very reasonable followup questions to be sure that the specifics were understood, and assured me that the chef was taking it into account. So far, so good. I email the menu to her, we both discuss the $65 four course, excitement builds. We arrive at the place, which is an underwhelming square on the outside. We walk in and am struck by how plain things were - the plain white walls felt like the small retail store that the building was obviously intendedly sized for. An uninspired light in the middle of the building was the only attempt to change it. We stand at the front of the dining room before the waitstaff emerged from the back wall and walked the length of the room to take our names. We are seated, and when the waitress hands us the menus, she informs my girlfriend that if she wants to have her dietary restrictions observed as had been emailed, she needed to get the tasting menu. She did use her tone to try to imply that this might be optional maybe, but her words were that the chef specifically prepared a tasting menu selection just for her. A $48 dollar up-sell using the implied threat of a deathly allergic reaction. She then tried to take our orders right there, on the spot. I had to interject into this and say that we needed a minute. She walked away, and my girlfriend immediately said how that exchange made her feel uncomfortable. I, not wanting to pay $200+ for a dinner at anywhere that thinks that sort of tactic is acceptable, agreed. The tone of the entire dinner was going to be negative. I can only suspect that these are hard times for notion, and the server herself was forced into using any excuse at all to sell the higher priced menu item, or had been given big financial incentives. Walked out and got seated at Spoon within 15 minutes. The dining room felt vibrant and well put together, with strong lighting and a vibrant minimal bar. They also have drinks and offer a prix fixe four course for $65. If you going to make something at this price point , then the dinning environment is not an optional bonus that you can skimp on, nor is having used car salesmen on your staff. Sat, Mar 22, 2014 at 11:01 PM TO: reservations@notionresta... Hi Jennifer, I just wanted to convey my feelings on our experience at Notion tonight. After being seated, our server confirmed her food allergies... and then informed us that if she wanted to have her dietary restrictions observed, she would need to get the tastings menu. This immediately made my girlfriend uncomfortable. Instead of feeling like a luxury dinner for us, it felt like a meal that our server forced/guilted onto both of us, which is not an experience that is worth $200+. Instead, I made reservations across the street at Spoon, and we were seated 10 minutes later. If this restriction was really made ahead of time, then it certainly seems appropriate to have warned me in one of the 5 email we exchanged. Cordially, -BFW [no response, 48 hours later, so I'm posting this review]

Output: Loved this so much I asked to be taken back for mothers day!! The bibimbap (am I spelling that correctly??) was GREAT! I've been craving it! Love the egg that gets cooked as it is mixed in. We also had kalbi and the sides were great. Fun date night and affordable. We also had dumplings (which I can take or leave, but spouse likes 'em!). This was a huge amount of food, it was affordable and best, it wasn't too crowded and it was really tasty!!

I'm honestly not sure why anyone would have anything bad to say about this restaurant. I'm shocked at some of the negative reviews this place has! Anyway, my lady friend and I went to this Serrano's a few nights ago for a quiet night out and that's exactly what we got. Everyone on staff from the hostess to the busser was more than helpful: The hostess got us seated immediately and our server, Jason, was kind, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable about the menu. Even the busser, Miguel, was fantastic! He kept the chips and salsa flowing all night and even gave us some insight into the menu. The food was totally affordable and we had a fantastic overall experience. We will definitely be back!!!
