You are given a review about a place. You need to provide a rating from "1 star" to "5 stars" for this place.
One example: Although I did enjoy the food here, I was completely unimpressed (and slightly annoyed) by the overpriced margaritas. I ordered a platinum which contained "fresh" juice. It tasted like it had sprite in it, so I thought surely she gave me the wrong one. It turns out that "fresh juice" is really margarita mix on tap from the same gun as the sprite. I asked for something fresh to replace the horrible margarita and received a rocks glass with just muddled lime and a salted rim. I'm not sure it contained any tequila. Horrible! It's not that hard to make a fresh margarita!
Solution is here: 2 stars
Explanation: The writer has been annoyed in this place and has enjoyed the food. So, "2 stars" sounds reasonable for it.

Now, solve this: Hubby and I made the trek up from Central Phoenix today for something different for lunch. We were pleasantly surprised to find this wasn't a pretentious Scottsdale joint - the atmosphere was actually quite unassuming and welcoming. We were greeted immediately by the hostess and seated at a table near the bar, in the middle of the dining room.

Our waitress seemed genuinely happy to be there, giving us a quick back-story of the restaurant (food's local, trucked in each morning, lots of gluten-free options) as she took our drink order. I'm a bit of a coffee freak, and there wasn't anything remarkable about this coffee, though it wasn't bad. I added a decent amount of (fresh) cream to my cup to cut down on the bitterness. Perhaps I'm a stickler for tradition, but I prefer my coffee in a good ol' ceramic mug, rather than the glass, handled Irish coffee mug presented. I don't think the glass keeps the coffee hot as long as ceramic - which was unfortunate, because after ordering our food, we didn't see the waitress again until after our food was delivered by another waiter. Me + lukewarm coffee = sad :(

I settled on the Monte Cristo - two slices of french toast with melted gruyere, ham, and strawberry jam - with a side of roasted red potatoes. I was concerned about the saltiness of the ham overpowering the sandwich, but it was a delightfully balanced blend of savory and sweet. The maple syrup provided on the side was a perfect complement. My potatoes were also done perfectly - with sliced white onions, not too crunchy but not slimy, either. Hubby ordered the steak & eggs with two slices of gluten-free toast (from the Gluten-Free Creations Bakery in uptown Phoenix) and black beans. The waitress mentioned that all of their breakfast sides are gluten-free - it's nice to have some variety for a change. He hasn't stopped talking about his eggs all day. He ordered them over medium, and they tasted fresh and were actually cooked to his liking - no wiggly white, no chalky yolk. The seasoning in the tenderloin (roughly six ounces - all meat, mind you, no fat or bone to carve away) was seasoned perfectly to complement the eggs.

By the time our food had arrived, we decided we wanted to try the bloody mary after reading Andrea S's review below. Our waitress didn't mind at all that we wanted to "split" the $8 drink and it arrived promptly. Made with cucumber vodka and stuffed to the brim with produce, this was one of the lightest and freshest bloody marys I've ever enjoyed. I've never seen pickled green beans in a bloody mary before - Hubby and I spent a good ten minutes trying to guess what they'd been marinated in (cloves? cinnamon??). The verdict - spicy and refreshing!

In short...the pros and cons:

Pros -
- Delicious, local food
- Friendly, decidedly un-Scottsdale service
- Clean, modern, spacious bathrooms (they even have those nifty Dyson hand-dryers, ooh!)
- Unique & varied drink menu
- Urban, industrial decor with colorful splashes of art deco
- Filling (!) brunch for two for $40 - not too shabby

Cons -
- Coffee was meh, went cold in between touch-ups
- Dining room was a bit crowded (I think my chair was bumped five times), and metal & concrete furnishings makes for a bit of a loud breakfast

All in all, we felt welcomed and appreciated. We'll be back!
Solution:
