A: The Vig Uptown stands as an urbanesque chic castle at the northern borders of Phoenix, AZ. Its upscale decor and sunroof area exudes a modern flow of hip vibes and good times. The courtyard with the cornhole arena is an excellent touch. And the food... Well the food was dec. I had ordered the hangover helper, a monstrous plate atop of which sat a tower of chilaquile layered with pork, cheese, sour cream, and housemade salsa. Then nested above this foundation were two over easy eggs. Was I served a plate of food or a work of art? And upon first bite, the flavors were very good. The textures were varied - starchy tortilla against gooey cheese and shredded pork. And the housemade salsa made everything taste incredibly fresh. But then halfway through the dish, I found the flavors began to lose their pop. The dish became heavily reliant on the salsa to sustain itself. It had very quickly begun overstaying its welcome... The chefs here must learn that less is more. While great proportions is generally appreciated, sometimes it can very often do a dish more harm than good. Pride is not the opposite of shame, it is the source. And the only true antidote to both is humility. I'd definitely go back here but not for brunch. Rumor has it that they have a mean set of burgers that I'd love to sink my carnivorous teeth into... To be continued...

A: Let's just say that Ilios Noche isn't all that "great." I use these unnecessary quotation marks because it seems fitting for this place trying to be both a "Greek" restaurant and an "Italian" restaurant, and uses quotation marks indiscriminately across their menu (except where they are needed). For instance, some of the sandwiches come with "Greek fries" (as written online), and on the menu, Greek "fries." Needless to say I wasn't interested in sampling quasi-fries of any nationality. But, on the contrary, the Wood Grill section is not in quotes, although our waiter informed us, after we asked what wood was used in the grill, that there isn't really a wood grill at all. Yes, here was a legitimate opportunity to use quotation marks: "Wood Grill." I did very much appreciate our waiter's honesty and friendliness, and a waiter without much confidence in his place of work does speak volumes on its own. But let me start at the beginning. Ilios Noche's al fresco dining is next to the Harris Teeter's supermarket parking lot, so you're really seated next to a mini van and souped-up BMW thoroughfare. Yes, there aren't many real estate options in this area, so this is unavoidable, but I think they should be more honest about the location on the web site for those to which this arrangement is...unexpected. It was half-price martini night when we dined there, and that can potentially put a good spin on even the worst situations. I was blindly optimistic. We shared the combo dip platter, which was not bad--four greek spreads with pita (red pepper and feta and the yogurt spread were the best, the hummus seemed made with dehydrated garbanzos). We also split the Grape and Fennel salad, which wasn't bad either: the right amount of dressing with shaved fresh fennel, grapes, spinach and unfortunately--cooked figs (think fig newton filling). Despite my second martini, the entrees were barely edible. My friend had salmon that was cooked well but paired with some kind of salty faux "tomato onion marinara," and my Spanakopita (not called this but that's what it was trying to be) was shaped like a curled up soft pretzel, heavy on the spinach and very very very light on the cheese. We also sampled the Gulf shrimp souvlaki, which should have been in quotes since there was no "souvlaki" anywhere in sight--just tough, slightly smelly shrimp on skewers that were left on the plate when we departed. I was going to ask about dessert before the entrees came (perhaps that was the martini talking), but the cheque came before I could. I was considering espresso until the man at the table next to us asked the waiter about it and the waiter replied: "Uh, our espresso machine..." and the man completed the sentence: "Sucks?" Waiter: "Uh, yeah." Perhaps he should have used air quotes when saying "espresso machine." Given that there really wasn't any wood grill, it's hard to believe there's any espresso machine at all. I know there are not many options if you're staying or living around this area, so if you come here, revel in the large portions and stick to the very very "Basic" menu items. Oh, and drink some martinis with dinner. Or, as it were, more "martinis."
Problem: What would be an example of an positive (OPTIONS:

- positive) review?

Answer: My room was nice, they did a great job with the upgrades. I compared a couple other rooms and I can tell that the higher level rooms are nicer than the lower levels. Bed is huge and comfy. I like the flat screen tv's, especially seeing the one in the bathroom. I was told that the upgrades were just done, so I stayed her at the right time. Sadly the pool and jacuzzi were being worked on. If you wanted jacuzzi time, the front desk staff told us to use Ceasar's. Now that sucks! The casino it self, is very old and nothing like the newer casinos, obviously. would I stay here again, sure the price was right.

Output: At first I thought this place was awesome because of the AYCE option and their extensive menu for AYCE, but food portion and service are horrible here. The nigiri were really tiny, probably the smallest pieces of nigiri I've ever seen. I don't know if they did that on purpose or what. The kimchi fried rice, uni, and fried banana dessert were my favorites of the night. I usually love poke, but their poke had a couple of tuna cubes and lots of seaweed. After about an hour of service, our waitress didn't come by our table anymore. I'm sure some of us were still hungry, but the absence of our waiter and food was long. The longer we waited, the fuller we got. Maybe they did this on purpose? Our orders of soft shell crab and scallop roll never came out even after telling our waitress three times . Needless to say, I'm never coming back.

output: I made the mistake of coming back "one more time" and I regret it. First- I feel like I'm back in 1960 the way the atmosphere is. Second- I don't want prime rib, I want a fricken filet. You offer Ribeye but not filet???? Third- It's overpriced plain and simple.

A:
I moved to Vegas about a year ago and I have yet to eat at another sushi restaurant because Yama is so good. I'm sure there's some really good places out there that I could get better sushi at, but I used to spend $100 on sushi just for myself. Now I can eat all the sushi I want for $25 and be content. I do miss certain items, as they only have the standards. But they do have sweet shrimp and hamachi kama, so what can I do?! (Answer: Go back to Yama over and over again)
