Problem: Scottsdale is not my usual scene, but I went to Axis Radius a couple of weeks ago with a friend who was home for winter break. It was worse than I expected. I spent all of my money and didn't even get drunk. What the hell? The men were MERCILESS. I expected them to be on the prowl, but it was ridiculous. Every 5 seconds I was trying to escape from some new guy trying to grind on me. I do NOT know you, please don't touch me with your wiener! Even just walking through the crowd, men were grabbing at our hands and hips trying to stop us. The music was ok but it was impossible to really dance to it. The drinks are too expensive to get nice and intoxicated from. I don't understand the point of this place, then. It must be to hook up. I know of better meat markets, I won't be returning.

Problem: We are here every Wednesday. The service is usually good but tonight it was not. Our appetizer came after we finished our meal and when we asked for more bread earlier the waiter joked about how there is a one loaf per table rule. I guess he meant it because we never got another loaf. Well the joke is on him when he does not get a tip! I guess we won't be back anytime too soon.

Problem: I've been waiting for the day this type of cuisine to come to Las Vegas. Ever since the day my tongue tasted the wonderful uni spagetti at famous Cafe Hiro in Cerritos, CA, I've dreamt about my favorite fatty subtrates - UNI & carbalicious-al-dente pasta. Trattoria Nakamura-Ya just opened a couple weeks ago. So fresh and new that they didn't even have their liquor license when we went. Hopefully, the license has been approved by now. Like popular Raku in town, Trattoria Nakamura-ya has a chalkboard of their daily specials. In this case, it was specials of their pastas and other dishes. A sucker for advertisement, we went for mostly specials. On to the food: Fresh warm rolls - Fluffy, soft, warm. Slather on a pat of butter...Need I say more? Hirame Watercress Salad - This was fantastic. The texture whore in me was jumping for joy. The crunchy watercress paired with the crunchy deep fried cracker (?) and the tangy sweet dressing was perfect. After breaking up everything and tossing well as recommended by our server, every bite was a texture sensation Madai (Red Snapper) Carpaccio - Fresh snapper, crunchy sprouts and a touch of fish sauce. Unique and delicious. Uni & Tomato Cream Pasta - Al dente, al dente, perfectly al dente + buttery uni =) Manila Clam & Torako Pasta - This dish was a touch salty but still enjoyable Scallops Sauteed in Marinara Sauce - Scallops are not my favorite seafood, but I could appreciate the tender meat and flavorful sauce. Tiramisu & Creme Brulee- I love Japanese versions of non-Japanese desserts. Somehow they make the level of sweetness perfectly to my liking (not too sweet). Conclusion: Fusion Japanese & I get along just fine.

Problem: Summary: Penn Ave Fish Co is a shit show as a business and at least some of their food can keep the people coming. Service is terribly slow and the servers are clueless. It looked like a madhouse. One of the owners (Harry or Henry??) kept flirting with me and it made me uncomfortable because he is definitely at least 45 and I'm 18 lol. It didn't help that I kept catching him looking at me while I was eating.. When I first went to Penn Ave Fish Co, I immediately thought, "This place is a shit show." There was a blatant disorganization between the kitchen and the front of the house. In fact, there was even miscommunication amongst the servers themselves. When I received some of my food (they forgot the sushi), my server had went to go retrieve one of the other servers because she "didn't know which one it was." It just seemed like the servers were relatively clueless and would only say what they thought you wanted to hear in this awful whiny baby voice. And does anyone think it's weird that all the servers are girls? I guess if making your servers show their bare chests brings you business then so be it. The Hooters of Fish joints, let me tell you. The service was terribly slow but at least the food was kind of good. I got the Sanjaya Swordfish which was a little dry and bland but the sushi made up for it. I got a sexy senorita roll which I highly recommend. The yellowtail tasted fresh. I also had a side of pasta salad and it was too vinegary. Hardly finished the first bite. I had the chance to talk to one of the owners (Harry or Henry??) and he honestly made me feel a little bit uncomfortable. He came over to my table of three and it just felt like he was hovering over me too closely. At first, I thought it was just me and then my two brothers said it felt like he kept checking me out even after he left left the table. What a creep job! He even winked at me too when I left. Maybe I'll get take-out sometime but definitely not dining in ever again.
