Q: positive

A: I had the Coconut Curry Shrimp, and my partner had Idaho Rainbow Trout. Both dishes were excellent! Even the Buttered Sweet Corn was delicious. The place is a tad expensive, but the food and decent service make it worthwhile.

Q: positive

A: First off, I think Bobby Flay can be quite stuck up on TV, but I wanted to let his food speak for itself, so I tried his food, and it was very good. Started off with the Spicy Tuna and Salmon Tartares, which are served with plantains and flatbread. Thought it sounded really appetizing, but it was mediocre. For the main course, I had the 22oz. chipotle glazed ribeye. While I'm a traditionalist when it comes to steak preparation (happy with salt and pepper), The steak was pleasantly unique, served with a red and green sauce that had a flavorful kick. The house syrah was perfectly paired with the bold, spicy flavors of Flay's cooking. Service was good as well. The waiter had a really cool European accent. I'd rather have a Euro accent than Flay's New Yawk accent.

Q: negative

A: The dumbest servers ever!!!! They took 45 minutes to bring us our bill. The customer service is horrific. And the food is awful and microwaved.. Oh why the F! Do I have to pay for chips I didn't order?!?!?!?!?

Q: negative

A:
As a vegan for over 10 years, i hate to NOT support a tried and true vegan restaurant in phoenix. But i have to be honest and say that this place did not live up to my expectations. In fact, it fell quite short. I ate at the Glendale Loving Hut location and had a FAR better experience there, so my review here is only for the Phoenix location. By all means, DO go to the Glendale one! It has a different menu and completely different atmosphere. The phoenix location on Indian School Road has a very drab interior, and very outdated. White metal chairs that looked like they were from the '80s. My first impression walking in was not a good one, and that is important to me. Definitely not a soothing relaxing atmosphere by any means. Also, there was a bad odor in the air. Almost smelled fishy to me. It almost made me lose my appetite to be perfectly honest. Ok, now on to the food. I got the Grilled Teryaki dish. By the way, did i mention prices are also higher at this location? $9.00 was the cost of this dish -- for lunch! Prices are a couple dollars less at the Glendale spot. Anyways, the faux meat in this dish was fine -- nothing to write home about, but it was "good". However, my complaint is that is ALL it was. Just a big pile of fake meat, and a small portion of lukewarm steamed vegetables on the side with no sauce or marinades on them. Just plain vegetables, and they were getting colder by the minute. Not really what i had in mind for lunch and certainly not worth the $9.00 plus the tip. I guess i should have gotten the rice to go with it all, but that was extra money! The complimentary lentil soup was a nice touch, but i've had better lentil soup that i've made myself. The soup too was only lukewarm, and very small cup size portion. The only positive i can say is that the waitress was wonderful and very friendly. I feel bad writing a bad review, but honesty is my policy.
