Problem: Gotta tell ya....every single time I go to Rehab Burger Therapy, I'm thrilled with my decision to go back. From the laid-back and welcoming atmosphere; to the delicious burgers (can't find one that my friends or I don't like), to the great wait-staff (Megan was our awesome waitress on my most recent visit).....RBT is the kind of gastronomic and dining therapy I want over and over again. IMHO: this is the best burger place in the Valley of the Sun.

Problem: I have been waiting for the right moment to try this place, family occasion or birthday, but it never came. So I decided to try it solo. This place is always empty whenever I pass by, there used to be a lot of people from the Middle East in this area, but it looks like most have moved on. So the businesses suffer a bit. It doesn't help that Amir's and Basha's have "Mcdonalized" this cuisine, so people are wary of paying more. As I looked at the menu, most items are just too expensive. I know this is not Amir, but what I had cost $25. everything else was just about 30-40% higher than elsewhere like Petit Alep or Kaza Maza It was a plate with a Kefta Kebab, Chicken cutlet (Taouk) and Filet Mignon brochette. With a little bit of rice and nothing else but a couple of onions. The taste was ok, but the meats lacked flavor and the filet mignon was chewy and mushy. A grilled tomato would have helped somewhat as well as wrapping the meats with pita bread, where the juices would drip. No soup or salad, with a glass of wine, that's close to $40 dollars with tip. The menu is so large, I doubt it can all be fresh, they don't have a table d'hote menu or a lunch special, This would offer more to the customer and emphasizes something that might be freshly made. The service was a bit distant, the waiter seemed stunned when I asked for sumac. And as I was leaving, I noticed an elderly woman, either working or related to the owners, sitting with her hands on her face, almost crying. I would go back with a larger group to try a bigger variety of items, I want to encourage places like these. When you compare it to Petit Alep, which is packed, I get the feeling they could really improve by doing some tweaking.

Problem: Great food for a reasonable price ~ quick friendly service. It's a blessing to have such a nice place within walking distance from my business. :) KC

Problem: My mother introduced us to this fun place one afternoon for lunch midweek. We were only one of a small handful of tables but our server was great. I am surprised myself to say 'but' but there are so many times where you hit up a place that is a touristy spot on off hours only to be treated like you are invading their space. Not so for us. Our server was friendly, attentive, and very kind considering we also had the 2.5 year old in tow who just wanted to shake his booty on the dance floor. The music was fun, the food was tasty, and again, the staff was very friendly. I look forward to making Whiskey Rose a part of my repertoire when visiting Westgate!
