Sentiment analysis: The wife and I went to Mon Ami Gabi for my birthday dinner yesterday. My wife made a reservation for 5:15, but then because of a show we wanted to see, she decided to play it safe and reschedule the reservation for 5:00. This was no problem at all. When we arrived at about 4:45, it seemed a little empty but that's because most people were outside on the patio overlooking the strip and the Bellagio fountains. We also requested to be seated outside, and we got a table easily (Probably because it was so early). I would recommend going closer to sunset, as we were partially exposed to the sun for the entire meal. However, patio seating is first come, first serve so it may be a lot tougher to secure a table later in the evening... (The inside looked very romantic as well) I tried the Frangria, which was good enough to last me the entire meal. We started with the warm Brie and the French Onion Soup, both of which were pretty amazing. My wife ordered the classic steak with the butter sauce, and I tried the one with the bleu cheese. She went medium, and because I was curious about the difference, I went with medium-rare. Both steaks were cooked as ordered, and the difference between the two was obvious. Many restaurants, unfortunately, screw this up... But not Mon Ami Gabi! Even though we were pretty full after the meal, I received an ice-cream puff type thing as a birthday dessert. That wasn't bad either. Service was excellent! It seemed the guy filling up water and taking away dishes was sitting behind us just waiting until the glasses or plates were empty! Our waiter was very attentive, and while we didn't try to test out his knowledge of the food or beverages, we had zero complaints about him. So, for the drink, brie, soup, and two steaks, we paid about $85 before the tip. For the quality of the food, and the overall atmosphere compared to other restaurants, the price was right! (Gordon Ramsay steak is an average of $100 per plate.) While, I'll probably be more interested in trying a different steakhouse next time around (only because I like new things), we definitely want to come back and try out Mon Ami's brunch someday.

Sentiment analysis: Clean location. Staff could be more energetic. They were yawning, during the party.

Sentiment analysis: Sometimes you just want something so bad you know will simply be a shadow version of yourself without it, then promptly forget about it until the 11th hour and declare your trip ruined without it. I mean hypothetically speaking. Luckily Old Town Scottsdale randomly has this Oregonian staple conveniently located in the middle of the worst place to find parking around. Backstory: I travel fairly often, and when my trusty carry on side bag companion finally bit the dust before a Europe trip last fall I scrambled to find a mediocre at best replacement. Needless to say, after that trip I swore I would never use the bag again for longer hauls and spent time picking out the perfect pairing with my luggage; a Pendleton "weekender" bag. I put in some minimal effort in tracking one down and figured I would find a better price or shipping deal at some-point. Then in the beginning of April I had a longer trip planned and realized the night I was leaving that I had never actually got the bag and therefore... my trip was ruined. Ruinnnnned. So there I was desolately assessing my options when I discovered to my delight that there was a Pendleton store right down the road and they had one in stock. It was also about 10 minutes before they closed. Running to my car I began navigating my way around Old Town dodging oblivious Spring Training fanatics like I was Jason Bourne. Accepting the fact I wasn't going to make it, I called the store again and while they informed me they were closing in minutes they agreed to stay open a little bit longer for muah. I'm not proud to say I cut off a little lady old lady for a parking spot, but it happened (I mean I had my blinker on first), and I ran into the store right on the edge of my extended time limit. The employee had already brought the bag up to the register for me and was all set to get me on my way, and didn't seem in the least perturbed that I had quite clearly kept him from leaving. The transaction took a grand total of maybe 2 minutes, it had taken me 20 to get the .7 miles and park (hindsight, maybe I should pick up a walking habit). I did happen to notice while I was paying the surprisingly large amount of selection in the store (its bigger than I thought) and they had everything from bags (yee yee!) to the famed blankets, to dishes, clothing, laptop covers etc. I also appreciated the awesome customer service. He could have just as easily been rude about the whole thing and I wouldn't have cared because I got the bag, but he wasn't and now I am planning on going back to get a blanket eventually rather than buying it online etc. tl:dr Great customer service & selection (plus excellent quality products)
