Q: Ok, I give up. I had a previous review of Andreoli that I gave 3 stars. They probably didn't care anyway. I gave it a lower rating because of the lack of service. At this point, I just don't care. I've been back to Andreoli for lunch a couple times in the past couple of weeks and the food is just so good it doesn't matter. I also didn't have a repeat of the wait from hell so maybe that's helped change my mind? The first visit back, I went with Giovanni's recommendation (which I'd heard from Eytan over at Phoenix Knife House) of the Mortadella (kind of similar to bologna but so much better) sandwich. Just Mortadella & nothing else. It was killer. Loved it. I've never had a bad sandwich all the times I've been there. Their bread is killer. Always nicely dressed. The salad that comes alongside is wonderful. Can't go wrong. I was with 7 people and they all loved their food. We also did a number of orders of the patatine fritte (fried potatoes & leeks). They're pretty much the best french fries ever. I also ordered some mozzarella in carrozza (fresh mozzarella and bread dipped in batter and sauteed). That was quite nice too. Washed it all down with a Limonatta. My last visit, I had the ridiculous fried potatoes & leeks of course and they were awesome. I did the arrapato sandwich (breaded pork loin with arugula and parmigiano). Stellar again. So I just give in & admit that I'm addicted to the food at Andreoli and am already overdue for my next visit.

Q: Second time here since we moved from St.Louis, MO 8 months ago. It was OK both times. Upon entering the restaurant today for lunch, the Health Department score was 93.I wanted to turn around and walk out, to me, that speaks volumes about a place that I actually want to eat at. However, my hubby and son wanted to give it a try. The tortilla chips were horrible to me. They gave an oily after taste where I could not even taste the tortilla chip at all. The salsa was good and the 2 shredded beef chimichangas were OK. The environment could have been cleaned much better than it appeared, hazy mirrors, floor needed to be swept. It was very hard to understand our waiter,although I think he was pleasant! At this point after seeing the 93 score, I think I'd like to try another place that has higher scores. I admit I am a clean freak when it comes to someone preparing my food. As a former Missourian, we did not have number scores to restaurants, only letter scores. Grade A, you would think that was great...until you really see how they come up with that grade after all the mishaps are subtracted from 100. There is a 10 point difference between Grade A & Grade B. I will be looking up this place's score to see how they did on their 93 score inspection. I love what North Carolina does by posting their scores as you enter the establishment. My new home state, suits me well with their Health Department scores and how they publish it and all the things that were found wrong on inspection day.

Q: If I could give this place a zero rating, I would. This would be a great hotel for partyers who don't care where they sleep. The carpet was dirty throughout the hotel and in the room. There was a giant gap in the carpet in the middle of the room, the room was huge but there was only contained a queen bed a desk and a dirty chair, the comforter had cigarette burns in it and the wallpaper was torn, the lampshades were filthy and water stained. I was afraid to go to into the bathroom. My husband and I called another hotel in the area and booked a room immediately. We were in Vegas for the Pac-Expo and the room was paid for by my husband's work. We had to pay for the new hotel out of our own pocket but didn't care because we couldn't get away fast enough from the filth of the clarion.

Q: I had them come out last month to do an audit of my system since my master bedroom was not as cool as the rest of my house. They found out that I had bad air flow since there was not a return in my bedroom and gave me a great price on installing one. Wow, is it much cooler now in my room! They also turned me onto a new thermostat that I can operate from my cell phone. I can now turn my system on or off while away or change the temperature while I am away. This is great because I hate coming home to a hot house when I am too cheap to leave the air on when I go out of town. I am really impressed with Mast Air with their knowledge and how they keep up to date with the newest technology. They have been in business for over 30 years and it really shows.
