An example of an negative review: This is the first time I have felt the need to 'review' an establishment, but after the altercation that took place last evening, I want to warn potential patrons. First of all, I am a retired radio broadcaster from network news, and a local Vegas business owner. The hoops I have jumped through to deliver a factual product, or make a customer satisfied, would astonish anyone EXCEPT for another reporter or business owner. Ironically, I was accompanied by two other successful business owners and top rated Vegas Entertainers when my wife and I entered Henry's late New Years Eve 2012. Our motivation for choosing Henry's was due, in part, by the later kitchen hours and proximity to home. Our Entertainer friends had just finished several grueling hours in front of a New Years Eve crowd and food was forgone until now. Upon entry through a double door security system which we all appreciated, we found the place to appear warm and tidy. Other than a split second glance by the bar tender and a very few patrons, we were left to choose a corner table and relax. Menu's arrived with some attitude, but who, on earth, wants to work on New Years Eve, anyway...so we carried on. Henry's booths are each illuminated with a rather bright modern halogen fixture. I love well-lit food establishments because I believe there is nothing to hide. This particular fixture, that hangs down above the middle of the table, feels like an officers Q-Beam at a DUI Check Point. One of my two Entertainer friends was immediately bothered by this bright light after hours of enduring the same while performing earlier that evening. Cleverly, she took a scrap of paper and the salt shaker and fashioned a hood to shade the light from her eyes. This was done several inches away from any hot surfaces, and there was absolutely no chance for damage to Henry's property. Furthermore, removal of this 2 second hood would surely have occurred at meal's end. Enter Mr. Bartender... "Ya, that's just not going to happen tonight". We quietly pleaded our case and we got, "This is a place of business...remove the salt shaker now." as if we were kids. We then asked very nicely for a piece of tape. "No..remove it now!", this time with even greater attitude. Within seconds we were exiting as he stood behind his bar with a glimmer of satisfaction that his power-trip was effective. Three out of the 4 of us commented how dissatisfied we were with his attitude and promised to take it up with his boss. His comment, "A am the manager. I guess you will be taking it up with me." That, my friends, was the very moment I decided to 'pen' this review. As stated above, I will do just about anything to find satisfaction with those that trust me with their business. The bartender's attitude, if just slightly less abrasive, could have been excused by us quite compassionately due to the unfortunate New Years Eve shift. A simple, yet understanding, request to remove the shade would have produced immediate and compliant results. Instead, this "Manager's" controlling actions and demeaning attitude has prompted a loss of business to Henry's which effects his staff's income and the earnings of the ownership in a troubled economy. Sad, so sad. 90 minutes later, we were sitting, bellies full of food in drink, paying a $100+ tab, tipping the awesome waitress big, and ringing in the New Year with the staff at Balboa Surf and Pizza. Happy New Year 2013!

An example of an negative review: Well got the answer why it was pretty empty on a Saturday. Food isn't very good. It's clean service was great but the food fell short with everybody at the table. The mahi mahi looked like a chicken tender gone wrong way over cooked. The burgers were eeh, I've had better $1 burgers and these were $10. The wife's was the regular joe one nothing special. I had the Kilauea burger, I like pepper but someone got happy with it to say the least and I just feel if you have to top a burger with deep fried red onions that's a pretty good sign right there your burger isn't very good. Even though I asked to not havethem it didn't improve the quality. I know I've said it before but they're way to many better places in town to get a great burger so trust me skip this spot, your taste buds will thank you.

An example of an positive review: My favorite place in Madison. It's a good departure from the standard Wisconsin fare of burgers and cheese curds. I have been here about three times and have tried the moules et frites, duck breast, and the whole fish (it's seasonal, I think). Moules are standard (i.e., good) and frites are thin-cut and great. The duck breast has a citrus flavor and comes in a delicious sauce. There is also a large beer selection. Service is friendly and prompt. Prices are very reasonable. Portions are relatively generous. Weekend nights are crowded, but never more than a half hour to forty-five minute wait for me. The ambience is good for both couples and small groups.

An example of an negative review: The food was average/good, but too expensive for the portion sizes. I've eaten tapas all over the country, and these were some of the smaller portions I've seen, and prices in line with San Francisco or NYC. The meal was ok, but we couldn't seem to order enough to be satisfied. Also, the service was slow. But the real kicker was they charged 50 cents for the stuffed olives in my martini! Overall, too expensive and not enough food to make it worth going back again. It was a pretty disappointing experience.
