Q: This place was ridiculously slow tonight. I stopped for my yearly crave - the Shamrock Shake. To be honest, I have no idea why I love these, especially since I like REAL ice cream and shakes the old fashion way - but this minty green shakes have me hooked. My son also wanted one, but he wasn't quite sure he would like it so I asked if he could have a small taste of mine before they made his; however, they could not do that. Instead I had to buy my shake, move to the side while the order was rung through the POS and then filled and brought out to me. Once he decided if he liked it or wanted another flavor, we had to place another order and then pay for it. I asked if I could just pay for a small shake and he would decide the flavor after he tasted my - NOPE. I was highly annoyed. I understand restaurant POS and the need to track inventory, but come on - it's a shake. Not only that ... it took over 10 minutes for 2 shakes and they weren't that busy.

Unfortunately, I have been to this location on several times because it is close to the house. I typically don't eat the food, but my son loves McDonalds, so I stop for him. On numerous occasions they have messed up the order (he only eats plain burgers) and the service speed is extremely random, regardless of how busy they are. Sometimes it is awesome, other times it is horribly slow.

I really don't like giving businesses a poor rating, but this last visit topped it off, and I had to share. I understand the machines are automated, but they could have rang up the shakes and then manually poored the correct flavor, it isn't rocket science, and it isn't going to through off their inventory!

Q: Went here the other day on a suggestion from a friend who's in Vegas a lot on business... Am I sure glad that I listened to him. I was told it was a little bit of a drive from the strip but I assure you, True Island BBQ is worth it. Guamanian food. Loved it. Definitely felt at home at this place... Let me tell you why.

One of the things I first noticed and liked while deciding what to order, was seeing some classic t-shirts in picture boxes lining the wall. Classic to me cause I had 3 of the shirts that were up there. Anyone familiar with Undefeated, Upper Playground and Undercrown will know what I'm talking about. Those are just the shirts that I had... Other nice ones were up there too. Nice touch. I immediately liked the vibe of this place.

Second and the most important was the food... My friend said to try the red rice with our entrees and I did. DELISH... I had the bbq chicken plate with red rice and small salad. Immediately tried the red rice and I knew we made the right call to come here. The chicken was very tasty. Grilled just right. Accompanying salad had a very good sweet dressing on it.. I usually take pics of my food (especially my first time there) but was so hungry that I forgot. And I regret it... Two of my friends had the fiesta plate and another had the salmon. With red rice, of course. Also ordered appetizers... The lumpia was so good. Comes with sweet chili sauce for dipping. Slightly larger than your average. Delish... And my friend ordered the gyoza. And just as I finished telling her that all the fried gyoza i order in LA is never cooked through like the ones I grew up eating in SF, we get served up gyoza JUST the way I like it. At last!!! Smiles...

Third reason is Darrell. Very personable character... He schooled us in what to order and was on point with all of his suggestions. He suggested we pour some of the ginger soy dressing on the red rice to kick it up and he was right. He said to try it on the grilled meats and we did. Winner. Thank you.

Fourth reason. Sade was playing on the radio while I was waiting for my food. To me... that is ALWAYS a sign of legit establishment. HAHA. I will be coming back here the next time I'm back in Vegas. Guaranteed.

Try True Island BBQ... Your taste buds will thank you. Then you will thank me. Tell Darrell I sent you... And order the red rice. Enjoy.

Q: Some of the staff is a bit grumpy (in a funny way), but the class and decency of the others balance it out. The service was the best, even opened our car doors for us as we left and the price $32 for oil change, filter change, vacuuming van and cleaning windows amongst other things.
