Bring back the old wings! Used to love this place but now they serve wings that are larger than life, might as well serve the whole chicken. No more deri-q. Sad face...\n\nOnly upside is that their corn cheese and kimchi fried rice are still tasty.

Looking for new seafood restaurant to try, and this one came up on yelp.\n\nIt is located inside the TPC club house. The view from the restaurant is beautiful, especially now, a little over month away from the PGA tournament, the green was at the perfect condition.\n\nService was great. We had our server, but there were two other servers helped us with bringing food and refilling drinks.\n\nI had artichoke Atlantic salmon lunch. Salmon was very thick and juicy. Sauce they poured on top complimented the salmon and mushrooms.\nThey used really good quality salmon and I enjoyed every bite of it.\n\nThey offered three different desert the day I went. I decided to try their vanilla pudding. It was overly sweet, and fresh fruit mixed well with the pudding.\n\nEspresso was really good as well. It complemented the desert and was nice way to end a great lunch.\n\nSince the view was very nice, I would like to come back for early dinner during sunset.

Meh.... Had the oysters to start and they were gritty and not shucked properly... Moved on to the lamb kabobs and were not at all expected..... Thought would be chucks of lamb instead was a slab lamb pop wrapped on a stick ... Tasted ok but expected different and expected better.... However.... The fried rice was Awsome!

This place is top notch. The sushi was excellent as was the service. Great upscale atmosphere and bar. This place isn't just for golfers. It's worth a night out.

A\nlove\ntrain\n\nURRKN stands for Underground Railroad Rescue Kitty Network and was started by Tina LaBlanc in Oct of 2011. It's a way of transporting kitties from shelters, foster homes and temporary homes to their \""forever homes\"".\n\nIt's basically a series of wonderful volunteers that are willing to transport cats from one place to another. One long trips each volunteer will drive whatever distance they feel comfortable and then meet another volunteer at a prearranged location.\n\nOn a long trip it might be many volunteers that selflessly give their time and transportation to help the kitty get to it's finally destination. A person waiting for the kitty can actually keep track on the progress as the cat travels on it's \""love train\"".\n\nWe recently adopted a kitty from Florida that had to be transported to Rhode Island. We contacted URRKN and volunteers were quickly arranged so our kitty, Gersemi, arrived to us quickly and in great health and spirits.\n\nThere is no charge for this incredible service but of course donations are accepted. It all depends on the kindness and generosity of strangers who anonymously do good without asking for anything but a simple thank you.\n\nThe volunteers of the URRKN along with Tina LaBlanc, are doing great deeds in a quiet way. Such acts of kindness for no other reason but to be kind are wonderful and rare things that should never be taken for granted.\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/URRKN/

I was a volunteer driver for two years for URRKN. They are a nonprofit 501c (3) organization run by Tina LaBlanc and her husband. I was very excited to be a member with all these cat lovers taking cats to their forever homes. Unfortunately, there is a dark side to URRKN. Tina LaBlanc was asking members to donate to various causes that covered personal, not URRKN related, expenses for Tina and other Administrators only. From trips, vacations, car repairs and clothing to house upgrades. All members, including management, are volunteers and provide their time free of reimbursement. URRKN is not a rescue, foster, or other pet related organization. It is a transportation group only. Moving cats from point A to point B, all free of charge. Any expenses for the cat is absorbed by the adopter and adoptee.\nIt was also brought to my attention that transports were based on how big a donation you made to URRKN, not the first come first serve basis we all thought. Some transports were taking up to 5 months to organize. Others in two weeks.\nJust recently, a You Caring request for $3000 in funds was posted on the members page requesting donations to fix a administrators car. At this time, no administrator is taking a salary or being reimbursed for expenses. I questioned these donations and was banned from commenting. I since realized that URRKN was violating 501c(3) nonprofit operation rules and found another group to drive for who is totally transparent.\nBefore you join or donate, please research this organization. Do not be taken advantage of like I was.

01

Unfortunately, this group does not always get their kitties to their new adoptees. One cat was lost while in the care of an URRKN overnight hostess's home. As of this date, she has not been found and its been a year. The adopter is still devastated. Another adopter received a kitten with a deadly virus that not only killed the kitten, but, also infected two of her family cats, one who perished along with the kitten.\nMismanaged donations and unfair scheduling of transports are just a couple of concerns for this group. It appears the more money you donate the more VIP treatment you get. Some transports take 5 months to organize where the norm is 2 to 3 weeks. If you want your kitty you need to shell out the money.\nURRKN has been known to transport kitties across state lines with no Health Certificates. Hence, sick kittens are being transported when they should be under vet care. Donations cannot be accounted for and are being requested by management from the members to support management personal causes as in eye surgery, home improvements, car repairs, etc.\nBefore you donate or become a member, please research this organization and its reputation.

It's great to have a nice place in the neighborhood. \n\nThe decor is very professionally done and it looks like a fabulous place for a date or nice night out.\n\nI met some clients at the bar where we had drinks. I found the service at the bar professional, but somewhat ambivalent in attitude. I don't want to be fawned over, but I do expect staff at a place like this to be a little more engaged and present. The selection of tap beers was short, but nice.\n\nAfterward, that same night, I met another client there for dinner. The service was good and the menu looked great. My guests all enjoyed their food. One had a large dinner salad, another had the buckwheat crepes, a third had the grass-fed steak and I had the Cornish hen, which the wait person had recommended because it was a family recipe. The presentation and appearance of all of our dinners was excellent. The flavors in my Cornish hen and the sides were delicious. What I am in shock over is the portion and the price. The menu states \""Cornish hen\"", it is $23 and there is no mention of the portion. It was not a full Cornish hen. It was not a half Cornish hen. It was a 1/4 Cornish hen. One very small leg connected to one very small thigh. That's it. I've seen more meat in an average size chicken strip.\n\nI will try Oliver's again, but will be more careful when I order.

01

I was really excited for Oliver's to open but was pretty disappointed when I ate there on their opening night. I had read that Oliver's price point was supposed to fall between nearby Lombardino's ($$$) and Blue Moon ($$), and was pretty shocked when I saw that most main courses were actually in the $18-$30 range. I ordered one of the less expensive dishes, the macaroni, and found it to be a little burnt. When I ordered the macaroni, the waitress asked me \""would you like a soup or salad with that?\"" so I requested the soup, assuming that it was included in my dish - I was then shocked to find that an $8 charge for soup was included in my bill. I thought that this was pretty misleading. \n\nOn the pro side, the soup, bread appetizer, and cocktails were really good. But again, they were a little too expensive (minus the bread, which was complimentary). I really really hope that Oliver's lowers their prices or adds some cheaper dishes (e.g. burgers and sandwiches). The neighborhood is mostly medical students and residents, and in my opinion, a menu and price point similar to The Old Fashioned would fare much, much better.

01

I should've known my visit wasn't going to fare well when our waitress mentioned \""We've been open for a week and working out all the kinks\"". Unfortunately, the kinks were not worked out by the time of our visit.\nThe interior is warm and inviting and caught our eye when we walked by. There is a bar as you walk in with some seating and the a larger dining room in the back. When I saw \""public house\"" as part of the restaurant's name, I was expecting a menu more focus on casual fare with a few sandwich options. Not the case here. With entrees in the high teens-low 20's and appetizers hovering around $10, the bill can get pretty high pretty quick. \nWhile the craft cocktails were worthy of their price point, the food was definitely not. I was impressed when the waitress steered my daughter away from the $15 adult mac and cheese and towards the version on the kids menu (she thought the adult maybe had too strong of flavors). I was not impressed to find out the bland kids version (served with ice cream) was $14. This is an absolute joke. My girlfriend went went the clans and mussels while I opted for the whitefish sticks appetizer and squash soup. The mussel/clam combo had a nice broth and served with grilled bread for dipping. But, for perhaps 7 mussels and another 6 clams, $16 is priced too high. My whitefish appetizer (with homemade chips) was fine but again overpriced ($10). On the other hand, my squash soup missed the mark severely. It took on the taste of the kale and was finished inexplicably with balsamic vinegar-completely masking the flavor of the creamy squash. \nParking is hard to come by (there is a space for patrons about a half block away) and with price points this high (and not having the food to match), I would be surprised if it lasts even a year. A shame as its a beautiful space.

I wish I found this amazing delicious healhy place sooner! Im 35 weeks pregnant and just found my new favorite sweet fix...and its super healthy! Dragonfruit, Acai Bowl...granola, peaches, pineapple, papaya, banana, coconut & honey....no more ice cream for me! Its so easy to eat healthy and cure cravings at Juice N Go!! Thanks foe the suggestion Alex.

I would give it all 5 stars but i don't want it to go to their heads. They just opened and I have only been here this one time. Anyway I am so happy a more than decent sushi bar is in the neighborhood. I am sure i will be adding the 5th star soon. By the way the service was awesome Mike and John are tops.

12

Excellent sushi. The service was outstanding. Quality and freshness superb! Will be going back very soon to this neighborhood gem!

12

What a great local shop! Loved Meeting the owners and taking a look behind the scenes at how they make some of the yummy confections. The coffee was really smooth and tasty as well. Thanks Nikki for hosting such a fun get together!

12

The Filmont Company built me a dining room table made from a reclaimed bowling alley. I absolutely love it! Even after having it in my house for a few months I still get excited when I walk in my kitchen and see it. The craftsmanship is outstanding. I love the design of the picnic table style legs that were made from steel, then welded to the frame and polished. It is so well built and so unique that I know it will be a piece that is passed down for generations. I get compliments on it every time some one sees it. Not only is the table incredible but the guys were great to work with, all of them were so nice! Thank you so much Filmont Co!

AHHH I checked yelp for this immediately after walking in. Biggest joke by far. I wanted to take pictures to show how absurd the display and over all appearance of this place was, but didn't want to spend any extra time in there, trying to get a refund. It was sparse, everything was a duplicated version, apparently chairs from other presidents and other First Ladies dresses were in there. Nothing what I thought it would be. I would give a higher review for the supervisor that refunded me the 3 tickets I bought for locals, totaling $71. I would have been disappointed even if it was free. Oh well. Dallas here I come for the real deal.

01

Terrible.\n$25 a person (plus a $4) fee on top of each ticket. \nWhen we got to the ticket \""booth,\"" (it was actually a dining table with a table cloth draped over it), the ticket machine wouldn't work. Two people were ahead of us and we still were waiting 20 minutes to buy tickets. Finally (a plus here) a nice couple gave us their extra tickets for free: Thank-you (and boy am I glad I didn't have to pay).\n\nOther than the cars, and about 5 wee things, nothing is either real or even related to JFK. \n\nIt was set up like a primary school science project in a giant, vacant room. The posters with \""facts\"" were full of misspellings and even had some questionable accuracy.\n\nI spent time in there hoping that I'd stumble upon some gem, but alas it was awful.\n\nThe icing on the cake was when I fellow decided to cross the rope line to sit at one of JFK cars. HE SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS, AND I DO NOT CONDONE IT. HOWEVER, the man working at the \""gift area,\"" who I assume is also the curator and security guard?? Began yelling an screaming at this person. He then continued on to call the man \""stupid\"" and uttered swear words to himself. Then he did nothing. He allowed this \""offender\"" to continue on looking unsupervised. Then I witnessed him talking to another female that appeared to be working the exhibit as well. He spoke loudly using the F-word so that everybody at the exhibit could hear. Finally he expressed that he was less concerned about the car and more about getting the picture back from the \""offender.\"" What the Hell?\n\nI left shortly after that. I feel like the Tropicana did not do their research on this particular exhibit. I feel that the whole thing was purely for profit and that no legitimate interest or research on JFK was presented.\n\nVERY DISSAPOINTED. Glad I didn't pay. To the couple that handed us the free tickets Thank-you in more ways than one!

This place says it closes at 11pm and its 1020.... And they denied us service! :( \n\nWas actually really excited for this, sadly place is still run by unprofessional people.

01

Clean atmosphere.... Ronin Burger....Dee-Freakin-licious !!! Highly recommended ! Definitely coming back to try other specialty burgers.

12

Grand Re(soft)Opening\n\nHappy Thanksgiving to Monkey Part I. \n\nSame clean and modern interior, 3 TVs, bar and kitchen visible behind large windows. Greeted & seated right away. HLK may be gone, but half it's menu items including smoothies still exist. The breakfast menu featuring their Hash and those delectable Pancakes will be making a return soon. \n\nMonkey do:\n\nSAPPORO DRAFT\nBLACK & GREEN BURGER - mushroom, spinach over Wagyu beef\nPORTUGESE DOUGHNUTS - very dense, fried balls of dough covered in sugar, served with jam. mmmm donuts... \n\nMonkey ordered burger medium, it arrived very rare in the middle. Though, savory and delicious, i killed it without giving it a second thought. Why would i? It's Bachi Burger! My ultimate favorite burger in Vegas... \n\nI no longer posses a cast iron stomach to devour anything in my path... therefore, it returned 2hrs later. every single bit. Lesson learned. Well done from now on. Monkeys still a fan, but with fear of this kitchen. Monkey shall return for them Taro Pancakes. One day...

01

The same burgers as the windmill location plus a few extras they kept from when this location was Bachi HLK I am here at 6pm and the restaurant is basically empty. I'm sure it will pick up as they have just re-opened

12

My husband and I have heard great things about this restaurant and with receiving a gift card for Christmas it was the universe telling us we had to go. \n\nWe asked the waitress what to get and she recommended the oxtail chili cheese fries as an appetizer. These were delicious and could be a meal by itself! We each order a burger as well: Ronin Burger and Black and Green Burger. We barely had room to finish it all. We will definitely be back to try it again!

12

We arrived at this location after we were told the Windmill location had a 45 minute wait. Thankfully this location is a lot closer to where I live. We were immediately seated in a booth that we asked for. The ambiance of this new location was great. Table and utensils were clean. The menu was extensive and took us a few minutes to decide what to order. I ordered the Ronin Burger. It was delicious. The presentation was well executed. We also ordered salt & pepper fries; the menu is a la carte. The fries were served with a dipping sauce, which I forgot the name of, but was very delicious.\n\nThe service was less than average. It could definitely be improved. We asked for refills for our water and he only managed to refill my cup and didn't refill my girllfriend's; she had less water than me. I will definitely be back to try a different burger and hopefully get better service.

12

I gave 2 stars because even though the food was good. The service was horrible. We didn't feel welcomed at all. We had a party of 9 and only 2 orders were served the way they were ordered. The waitress sucked. She clearly took the orders wrong and paid no attention to us. The woman who served us our drinks was way more pleasant than the lady that took our orders. At least she thanked us for coming. Due to the horrible service we didn't leave much of a tip. I'll stick to the Sahara location

01

Two stars cuz the food is good. Why i give low ratings? Never make a hungry man wait to long! Walked in and got seated after 5min. What started to irritate me more is that no one came to approach us and ask for drinks or anything within the next 15min. Wtf! What pissed me off more is a bigger group got their fkn water and their burgers before us. Smh Thanks for making this hawaii boy disappointed on my very first experience of this place.

01

So, I typically go to the Sahara location but we tried their newest location on Russell. The food, as always was BLOODY AMAZING!!! I had the Black & Green burger, it was NOM NOM & it only got better with aioli's!! We also ordered all of their fries, sweet potato ones, truffle fries, salnt & pepper fries and the jalapeno fires, the latter are my FAVORITE!!\nBut here's the BEST part of our dining experience, the service! When we arrived we were greeted and seated right away. There were a total of 6 of us but only 2 of were there first. Carla seated us with a laugh & a smile! She also shared with us that her co-worker had called out 2 days in a row; yes, someone will be AXED from there! \nOnce the rest of our party arrived, Carla continued to be a ROCK STAR! She was on point. She was pleasant. She was funny. She was fun. She made us laugh. She was just FRICKIN AWESOME!! Not once being the ONLY Server on the floor did it hinder her work or her personality! \n\nTHANK YOU CARLA for an AWESOME time! And we WILL be back to see YOU!

12

I was speculative on coming here but it was close to where I live and there aren't many good pho place around here. \n\nCame Tuesday for lunch, first impression is that it's nice and clean which is always a great sign. Our server is nice and helpful, brought our tea out quickly, very tasty. \n\nWe ordered the spring rolls and combo pho. The spring rolls were awesome! All the ingredients were extremely fresh, peanut sauce was just right. The pho came out soon after that very hot which is just how we like it because we always get the steak on the side. Everything was well sliced, nothing was really coarse or carelessly made. Only thing is the soup could be more flavorful. Overall it was a surprising great experience and we will be back for more :)

12

My boyfriend and I were very hesitant eating at a pho restaurant in the east side but the reviews here helped. It's very clean and the service is awesome. The appetizers are great and the pho is awesome. The soup itself is a little on the sweet side. This is definitely going to be our new pho place instead of driving 20-30 minutes to Henderson or Spring Mountain.

12

This place is probably one of the best pho places in Vegas. Amazing customer service! Not like other pho restaurants I'm used to. The broth was light and very delicious. I can't wait to go back and try other dishes from their menu! Also, THANK YOU for being on the east side!! No longer have to drive to Chinatown for a hangover cure!

12

This place took over Beijing Noodle & I'm glad! I am sad to see a local spot gone but the family that owns this place is cute. I feel like they just opened a place to serve food they make at home. They claim to be a Vietnamese and Chinese spot but I didn't see much Chinese except for the fried rices.\n\nIt has a typical Vietnamese menu minus the curries. I did however see they offered a beef stew with bread yum.\n\nBasically the food was good, the place was clean, and the service was polite. They could do to stop by the tables more often except to drop food off but I enjoyed all of the staff I encountered. Very sweet and friendly. \n\nWe tried their combo pho $8x 2, a ban mi dac biet $3 and some change, and their spring rolls $3. All came out to $24 and some change. We were stuffed. It was a bargain IMO.\n\nI really liked their sandwich. Their bread was hot, fresh, and crunchy. I've never had one like that. I want to say they didn't put the patte part. I have to say I didn't miss it, and I've been eating those sandwiches since my childhood. At first it looked like they skimped on meat but it was perfect. I loved it.\n\nTheir pho was good. It was a good size with a large amount of meat. The broth was good, the noodles were cooked just right, and it was served super hot. The bowl looked below average in size but it was just the right amount. I finished the whole bowl and the broth. \n\nTheir spring rolls were good. The dipping sauce was good. I enjoyed them. \n\nI have to say for a newer place I thought they did a great job. If they are reading and I could help them improve I'd say to offer straws for their water, get a napkin dispenser for the table if they don't plan to walk by too much, and lastly take their service to the next level. \n\nOverall I do plan on returning soon. In comparison to a Pho Kim Long, Pho Saigon, or Pho So 1 it is just as good but with the friendly staff you won't find in China Town.\n\nCheck them out!

12

Attention!! This is a really cute cafe that just opened! Food is excellent, service is great, and ambiance is nice. I really recommend their rose oolong latte, I think it was the best tea latte I ever had...it was made not too sweet according to my request. Their baked goods are awesome too like the pastry puff that had fresh cream put inside when I decided to buy it. I had also ordered the salt and pepper popcorn chicken with rice and I thought the portion was really good, not too much food. I think this place deserves more exposure because I thought everything was really tasty.\n\nPerfect place to go for coffee, snacks, meals when you are in the NDG area, particularly near Vendome metro.

12

After waiting for over a year for this place to open I was excited to go. I wanted to like it, I really did... And perhaps with some edits we will be back... Oy beer on tap was Old Mecklenburg Brewery (OMB). Need more options need, much better options... Food was just ok, wanted a burger but they do t have fries... Really? Ordered the BLT that was nothing special. Fix the beer menu and the food, maybe you will get more folks in.

01

Won't visit again.\nSat at the bar as with most places.\nTaphoiuse and bartender doesn't know how to pour Guiness from draft.\nVery small liquor selection...no Seagrams 7 huh?!\nBar menu...meaning limited selection of food.\nFish tacos got 3 but no side like fries elsewhere.\nFish and chips TONS of fries.\nBoth meals were interesting...flavor was lacking. Tasted like eating moldy bread ugh.\nCustomer beside was beyond buzzed and other bartender gave another wine.

01

Mediocre food. Took almost an hour to get 3 burgers and a Philly Cheese Steak. The Philly Cheese Steak was supposed to come with steak sauce - but they were out if Steak Sauce. Waitress said they had been out for a week. Here's a tip - Harris Teeter is 1 mike away. I believe they sell steak sauce. Another disappointing restaurant in a potential great location. We had the OMB Copper. The beer should was not very cold.

01

I had low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. I hadn't read any reviews and had never been there when it was another restaurant so I based my impression on the location and exterior only. the place is bigger than I thought it would be. The interior is unimpressive. I went on a Friday night at 6:30. There was no wait. The staff was friendly and provided excellent service and the food was surprisingly good! I am a recent TC resident and I will definitely go back. The only negative I want to call out is the noise level. It was perfectly fine when you come with your family and kids but if a quiet evening is important I would keep it moving.

12

Bon! L'endroit vient d'ouvrir et il faut laisser la chance au coureur... Je me promets d'y retourner dans 6 mois \u00e0 un an, pour voir s'ils sont arriv\u00e9s \u00e0 en faire quelque chose de d\u00e9cent.\nMais pour l'instant...\nD\u00e9j\u00e0, il y a l'am\u00e9nagement... L'espace est tr\u00e8s peu convivial, d\u00e9coup\u00e9 en banquettes, avec des murs de s\u00e9paration, ce qui rend la communication avec les gens autour \u00e0 peu pr\u00e8s impossible. \u00c7a \u00e9voque vaguement une rotisserie St-Hubert, en plus joli, il faut bien le dire... Autre comparaison avec la c\u00e9l\u00e8bre chaine : des t\u00e9l\u00e9s un peu partout, branch\u00e9es sur le canal sportif. Pendant une soir\u00e9e du hockey, je peux comprendre, mais sinon, \u00e7a n'est qu'aga\u00e7ant. Qui aime \u00eatre bombard\u00e9 de publicit\u00e9 et d'information sur la carri\u00e8re de Wayne Gretsky quand il boit sa bi\u00e8re avec ses amis? La musique n'est gu\u00e8re mieux... J'avais l'impression d\u00e9sagr\u00e9able que quelqu'un avait synthonis\u00e9 CHOM \u00e0 la radio... En somme, tous les ingr\u00e9dients \u00e9taient r\u00e9unis pour cr\u00e9er une ambiance totalement navrante, tout juste bonne pour plaire \u00e0 des banlieusards n'aimant pas \u00eatre d\u00e9rang\u00e9s dans leurs petites habitudes.\nC\u00f4t\u00e9 bi\u00e8re, il para\u00eet que la s\u00e9lection \u00e9tait tellement incroyable que le serveur n'a m\u00eame pas pu nous la pr\u00e9senter!!! S\u00e9rieux! Pas de liste des bi\u00e8res disponibles! Il a donc fallu lui dire qu'on voulait une IPA pour qu'il nous dise ce qu'il avait (il nous a parl\u00e9 de deux bi\u00e8res, je ne sais pas s'ils en avaient d'autres). Seul point positif, quelqu'un m'a dit qu'ils tiennent \u00e0 peu pr\u00e8s tous les produits de Simple Malt, qui est un bon brasseur. Ma IPA \u00e9tait fort convenable...\nFinalement, le prix paraissait raisonnable (7$ la pinte), jusqu'\u00e0 ce que je r\u00e9alise que les taxes \u00e9taient en sus (donc 8$ la pinte). C'est cher pay\u00e9, je trouve, mais il semble que cette escroquerie devienne la norme dans le quartier latin...\n\nBref, un endroit o\u00f9 on ne fait pas de rencontre ni de d\u00e9couverte, et o\u00f9 l'on paie trop cher pour une ambiance morne. Je pr\u00e9dirais sa fermeture dans l'ann\u00e9e, s'il n'\u00e9tait situ\u00e9 dans un quartier hautement touristique, fr\u00e9quent\u00e9 essentiellement par des gens habitu\u00e9s aux grandes franchises, et qui ne rechigneront donc pas en payant cher pour une exp\u00e9rience fade.

Las Vegas has tons of restaurants, bars, casinos, and even an unusually high number of grocery stores- what we need more of is book stores! Happy to hear that The Writer's Block has opened in the Fremont area- in addition to tons of books, they also have interesting and educational d\u00e9cor and knick-knacks like anatomical animal models. \n\nBooks are divided up by new releases, fiction, nonfiction, and children's books with separate sections for health/diet, poetry, and lifestyle. Though the store itself is on the small side, it is packed with books and there is good selection. Staff is friendly, greeting customers as they enter and offering to help find specific items if needed.

12

Stopped in around 8pm, hungry and tired after a long day. The owner was very friendly and recommended the chicken briyani to my husband. I had the qorma curry. The portions were generous and the food was tasty. I do wish that the curry had a little more depth of flavor, however. It was very slightly spicy, which was great, but there wasn't a ton of flavor behind it. The owner came over to ask how the food was and offered my husband more sauce to go with his meal. Overall it is a decent place to stop if you are looking for a quick, easy meal at a good price.

12

For a quick simple sushi lunch, this is a good place to go in this area. They have a lunch menu that includes katsus, teriyaki, tempuras, and simple standard rolls such as spicy tuna. All lunch dishes come with a side salad with ginger dressing and miso soup. Their regular menu has a variety of nigiris, sashimis, special rolls, and some Chinese and Korean influenced dishes such as honey walnut shrimp and kimchi noodle soup. They also have different types of soups and curries. The lunch menu is reasonably priced, 1 dish around $8-9 average. The service was good and it's clean and spacious. Going in I didn't expect much, but overall it was a good visit. I especially enjoyed my salmon skin handroll. The sushi rice is seasoned well and they are portioned well as in they don't over do it on the rice to save the goods. They give a generous portion of fish. The freshness was ok, good enough to eat. One thing I dislike is that they serve tap water... boo. Overall I am happy this place opened. Now I have my go to Sushi place near work when I don't know what to eat for lunch. Oh, they also have bobas!

12

Stopped in for a quick dinner. Had the Sushi Combo 2 for $18, with a spicy tuna roll.\nFelt it was just alright, nothing terrible but I wouldn't want to order it again. service was great though.

#500 review!!!\n\nI've been trying to save #500 for a noteworthy contestant, but I haven't quite ran into anything outstanding for a few months :(\n\nWith that being said, my neighborhood bar/lounge recently had ANOTHER restaurant ownership change, and since it wasn't on Yelp yet, I figured I would do the honors....too bad, it's not a very positive review.\n\nFirst of all, the main reason I believe they continue having issues with the restaurant side of their business is the fact that the interior shares a half-wall with the neighboring bar which allows cigarette SMOKE to linger. It's not nearly as noticeable today in comparison to the pizza restaurant that resided a couple months ago due to the fragrant meats and sides, but still bothersome to most non-smokers.\n\nBefore I start on the food, let me first point out that this is GOOD BAR FOOD...just not great BBQ. Let me clarify, if I was sitting at the bar watching the game, I'd be hard pressed to find much better bar counter food ordering selectively from the menu. But compare this to the better BBQ spots in town, and you'll leave unimpressed...especially given their price point.\n\nI ordered the Combo Platter: \""Sweet\"" Ribs, Pulled Pork, Smoked Beans & Mac Salad. Ribs were TERRIBLY OVERCOOKED, blackened crispy & dry. Bones were BRITTLE & actually BROKE APART when given little effort. The Pulled Pork was good though, crunchy bits and smokey undertone, with the only complaint being the sauce too SWEET for my tastes. Smoked beans were a nice change from the norm, but the mac salad was forgettable.\n\nAlso tried the Chopped Brisket, Baked Beans & Coleslaw. Brisket was DROWNED in sweet bbq sauce that masked all the smokey flavor that was hiding inside. Beans were run-of-the-mill but enjoyable. Coleslaw tasted like raw cabbage and water. Where is the vinegar...sugar...flavor? \n\nAnd last but not least, the Fried Pickles. Some pieces were a bit salty and overcooked, but most were tasty and well done. \n\nTo summarize, if you are in the area looking for a good place to watch the game & some good bar food (and don't mind the smoke), this would be an great choice given what we have in the Northwest. If you are looking for the best BBQ in Vegas, you won't find it here.

Phe-nom-inal with an extra \""nom nom\"" because you want to keep eating. Inside the Town Center Lounge so if it wasn't for the massive smoker outside you would think typical Vegas Tavern Food, but it most definitely is not! Stepping inside you are greeted by a quick service vibe with order at the counter and take a number type of service. No sweat, efficient and I don't have to wait for the attractive blond to bring my beverage.\n\nFood was on the table (sliced brisket sandwich - $11) before I was finished filling my green tea. Immediately I reached for one of their BBQ sauces and remembered \""Nick you have to taste before you douse\"". Needless to say I put the BBQ sauce back and all I was left with was wanting to get another sandwich! All and all, will be back, must come back! I'm even going to throw it out there, better than Road Kill Grill. \n\nBasically Bubba's brings a big Texas bite to this little Vegas watering hole.

I have been in Austin for the past few months for work and I was tempted by this new BBQ place in the wilds of the Northwest. I came in today, ordered chopped brisket because sliced was unavailable and had the pulled pork. The pulled pork was terrible. Dry, chopped instead of pulled, drenched in a poor quality sauce. I did not enjoy it. The brisket was OK, the only part of the experience deserving any stars, but drenched in BBQ sauce. In Texas they let you add your own sauce. I feel like they were compensating for poor quality preparation. The Cole slaw was dry, the dressing was watery and pooled at the bottom of the cup. The baked beans had little flavor and were too soft from being cooked too long. Not worth the price at all. Go to Road Kill just a mile or so away to get something amazing, twice the food at the same price and as good as anything I have had in Texas.

Why? Why? Why...can we not get more solid BBQ here? Has Vegas been cursed by some sort of barbecue hating devil? Have the BBQ Gods no mercy on Sin City? I really just don't get it. But before I self-explode, let me explain...\n\nBubba D's is a brand new BBQ joint located inside the Town Center Lounge on Sky Pointe, just off Ann & the 95. I'm not super familiar with this lounge, but I do know from driving by it everyday that the restaurant inside has seen its fair share of changes. Not long ago, a breakfast place used to be here that I had bookmarked, and never got to try. According to Bubba D's, they shut down due to allowing guests under 21 to dine-in. Because they share the space with a lounge who's ceilings are 28 feet high, and it's way \""too expensive\"" for them to legally block off the area, this is strictly a 21 and over spot. So, for families with children, you're stuck with takeout only. I don't want to fault them much for the location, as I'm sure they're just working with what they can, but I really question why a BBQ joint would pick this spot. Even if I had been at this bar drinking beforehand, I'm not sure I would've wanted to spend that much money on what is technically just bar food. \n\nMuch like other bars, the menu is larger, this one just focuses on BBQ. Obviously there's classic choices like meat plates and sandwiches, but they also have some unique items like giant potatoes, tacos and even burritos. Tons of sides are available, although some are only available a-la carte, and there's a separate \""To Go By The Pound\"" menu as well. In my opinion, pricing is flawed and kind of all over the place. A 1/2lb of brisket alone starts at $10, yet a burrito or potato that they proudly display as weighing over 1lb, with brisket, is only $12. Sure, there's other ingredients in these, but how small are they making the meat portions? And because sides are separate, most of which you can not order with the combos, the bill can get rough. We only ordered 2 combo plates with 1 dessert, no drinks or extras, and our to-go bill was just a few cents under $40. I have no problem paying for good BBQ, we all now how much meat is, but they've got a lot of work to do. Here's what we got...\n\nI'll start with sides. All borderline terrible in my opinion. The coleslaw was either packaged, or made with a very generic cookbook. No flavor at all, and way too watery. Potato salad was just as bad flavor-wise, and I swear they put rosemary in it. It just didn't work. Then sadly, my most anticipated side of all was the smoked beans, and they were probably the worse. I had to scoop some up to take the photo, but most of the container was liquid. And that liquid tasted like straight up smoke water. Imagine taking a cup of water and leaving it in a smoker for hours upon hours, then sipping on it. I love me some smokey flavor, but whoa!\n\nHoping the meat would make up for the lackluster sides, we dug in, and were let down with just about everything. I ordered a 2 meat combo with chopped brisket and sausage, Lore ordered a 2 meat with ribs and pulled pork. They don't offer a classic hot link, but do have locally sourced sausages made just for them. My pick for the sausage was jalape\u00f1o, and tasted like just about nothing. It was drowned in sauce, which is most likely why, but I'll get back to the sauce. Both the brisket and pulled pork seemed to be smoked great. The meat wasn't overly smokey, you could taste a bit of seasoning in them, and they were tender with nice little crispy burnt-endish pieces. Unfortunately, the ribs were probably the worst of all. I'm no smoking expert, but they seemed to be cooked at too high of a temperature, way too fast. The outside was burnt black, yet parts of the inside seemed undercooked. It had a raw meat look and texture. And I'm not talking about the pink from smoke rings. 80% of the rack got trashed. \n\nBut here's the thing, I can honestly say this was my first ever backwards BBQ experience. In most cases, the meat at joints is what's lacking, but you can get enough sauce on them to make it taste okay. But Bubba D's is the only place I've been too where it was the complete opposite, and I wished there was no sauce on most of the stuff, like the brisket and sausage. This sauce is bad. Really bad. I'm not sure if the photos will do it justice, but the only thing I can compare it to is some sort of old, canned marinara/pizza sauce. It's thick, it's tomatoey, and it seriously ruined every piece of meat on all our plates. The ribs couldn't be saved, so that's another story. But I'm not even sure what sauce we got either. We weren't offered a choice (even though there's 3 on the menu), and we attempted to get as much of it off the meat before we ate to try figuring it out. \n\nI hate giving places like this such a bad review, but this was just bad food. The friendly owners and service is worthy of 2 stars, but I can't say the same for the eats.

Dissapointing. Seeing the smoker outside we had high hopes for this new BBQ joint, boy were we let down. Meats were all overdone and dry. Beware, the meats come smothered in sauce. You have to ask for no sauce so you can sauce your own. The sauces were mediocre. My ribs were hard on the outside and not in a good way. \n Ordered both the regular and jalape\u00f1o corn bread. The regular was like a crumbly dense flavorless cake. The jalape\u00f1o was the exact same piece with a whole jalape\u00f1o cooked on top. Come on, take the time to slice up the jalape\u00f1o and mix it with some roasted corn into the batter. It tasted like Jiffy cornbread mix.\n The beans were ok. They were a bit overdone but had chunks of meat for flavor which redeemed them a little bit. The potato salad was the best thing about my dinner, on par with a store deli counter salad, didn't taste homemade. \n The waitress was sweet and I hope she finds a new job soon. I can't see this place lasting much longer. Sad because Vegas needs more good BBQ.

Oh. Mah. God.... What an awesome treat to see this show! I am a broadway fan, but had never seen this play ( and had no idea what it was about). When we arrived, we were greeted with some awesome Yelp and Pippin items, a 10$ credit (which I used for a delish san tan hef), and tickets on the first balcony (which I had never sat on, has a great view, and is better than my usual seats in the nose bleeds). This show was packed with great music, amazing performers, and jaw dropping acrobatics... I even said it was better than cirque du soleil... by far! Thank you so much to Yelp, Lindsey, and Gammage for allowing me to see this fantastic show!

12

Love this place! They have the best sandwiches and they have the best gluten free bread! Great service and great atmosphere! Highly recommend!

Brand new location with the worst customer service.. And their fryers are broken and down already! Not to mention dude in the drive through laughs at me for being angry.. This business needs to be ran properly..

01

More employees than customers in the dining room. Hmm. \n\nFood is over priced and awful. I've had Popeye's before elsewhere , this is not on par. Too many kids behind the counter not knowing what they're doing. Chaos. \n\nGive it a few months, try it out then, if it's still open...

01

Waited waay too long at drive thru before even anyone helped. Customer service is HORRIBLE. Who trains these people? Emily was extremely rude..so left without my food. We ain't in da hood not going back.

01

Just popped in to try their new \""Ghost Pepper\"" wings. Small pigeon wings and drumsticks that are battered and deep fried. Thery are about as spicy as KFC original reciepe, but not as good.\n\nWhat is the point of advertising ghost peppers if it isn't spicy?

01

Don't go to this Popeyes expecting fast food. They must have a different motto as the other Popeyes. They are extremely slow and by the time you get your good you are lucky if you get what you ordered, not to mentioned of its cooked all the way. The manager doesn't even seem to be concerned, only response they know how to give is \""oops sorry\"". While waiting 30 minutes for my to go order I heard numerous other customer complain about the wait time as well. I get it has just opened but you don't have to have a masters degree to figure out how to cook and serve chicken at a responsible pace. Every other new restaurant has figured it out, why are the hires at this place special. Would be surprise of this place stays above water, the only thing it has going for it is it's name. If you decide to go here clear your schedule.

I have to agree with Brenda in that I don't think the Scrooge character was 'hitting on all cylinders'. He did seem to be just delivering lines where the rest of the cast was fully engulfed in their performance. Our seats- orchestra floor- were awesome and with it being our first trip ever to the Byham- we were SO happy to have gone. I don't typically pay upwards of $60 per for a performance but this one, and getting to see the inside of the Byham, might help to convince me to do it more often.\n\nThanks again to Yelp and Rachel C. for the comps...!

12

I'm a huge fan of musicals, but I have to admit - A Musical Christmas Carol was never on my radar. Not that I didn't want to see it; there are just many other musicals I have on my bucket list to see. After seeing this production (thanks to Yelp!), I am now a fan! \n\nI thought the set was awesome. The Byham has a noticeably smaller stage than other theaters in the city, but they made the most of the area. I thought it was beautifully decorated and made be feel like I was truly in the scene with them. Costumes were great as well!\n\nThe show itself was great. It definitely exceeded my expectations. I was afraid it was going to go slow and I was going to lose interest, but they did a good job keeping things moving at a steady pace. I was particularly fond of the woman who played the maid and wife. Her performance was hilarious. She's a true comedy act! I also loved the man who played her husband (he also played a ghost I believe). Once again, so funny! I loved seeing him come out because I knew we were going to laugh. \n\nPeople are criticizing Scrooge's performance, but I thought he did good. There may have been times he could have added more to his character, but he's Scrooge. He's supposed to be bland. \n\nMy only criticism (maybe because I wasn't too familiar with the story) was that I expected there to be more music and singing. There were only a handful of times music was involved and each time it wasn't a full song. It seemed like it was more or less used to help transition scenes. I loooove Christmas music so I would have liked to hear some carols. \n\nThanks again Yelp for giving me some Christmas spirit!

Filip is Awesome, Very Professional, and Trustworthy!!!!! I have already given his card out to 2 friends. Please read my story below to better understand the automotive repair experience Filip provided.\n\nWhen I moved from Ohio I lost my very reliable automotive repair technician. For the past 8 yrs I have been trying to find a professional automotive (ASE certified) technician that understands what customers need. I have a 2004 Toyota Camry that was due for several automotive repairs so I took it to the local Toyota dealership to get an oil change and have them inspect the entire car to generate a list of the needed repairs. The following items were on the list:\n Leaking High Pressure Power Steering Hose\n Leaking Return Power Steering Hose\n Torn Lower Control Arm Bushing on the Drivers side\n Torn Lower Control Arm Bushing on Passengers side\n Rear Struts leaking-Both Sides\n Air Cabin Filter\n 4-Wheel Alignment\n\nThe price they quoted was ridiculous and was obviously out of the book used to quote how long a job takes. The worst part about dealerships is that they charge you for every hour the book quotes to make the repair even if the techs finish the job faster than the book outlined. Most repair jobs that have a repair list like above have some overlapping of hours between the jobs which is never recognized in the quote. The faster the tech gets the work completed, the more money they make(Both the Crooked Service Advisor and the technician). Also keep in mind that the massively inflated dealership repair shop rate includes profit for 4 parties(Dealership, Parts Department, Service Advisor, and Technician). After getting the list I then decided to search on craigslist in an attempt to find another reliable technician like in Ohio. Interestingly enough I noticed the Add for Flop Shop, which at first glance made me very skeptical about the place(My initial thought was chop shop?) but I figured why not just give a call and see what happens. Surprisingly, Filip answered the phone on New Years day even though Flop Shop was not open!! Yep that's right...this intrigued me enough to pursue a quote which he politely said he could give once back in the shop the following day. He did request the repair list I received from the dealership. The following morning Filip called me with a quote and I was very pleased with the pricing. Filip uses the same books to quote the hours of the work but accommodates by removing the greedy crooked other parties(Dealership, Service Advisor). Filip gets the parts directly from the manufacturers if possible so there is a lot less markup than at a dealership plus the warranties are always better. If he is unable to get the part from the manufacturer then he will search other local avenues for the new parts, even dealership parts departments, to make sure he can get your vehicle repaired in the timeframe you need. I agreed to the price and dropped the vehicle off on Saturday morning 9am. Filip outlined the level of communication he would provide throughout the day so I could stay up to date with the status of the repair, and he followed through perfectly. I always knew how the repair was coming along and when the repair was finished. In the morning Filip generated his own list of repairs and called me about what he found. Here is Filip's list of repair items:\n Leaking LOW Pressure Power Steering Hose \n (Dealership said it was the high pressure line which was double the cost of the low pressure one)\n Leaking Return Power Steering Hose\n Torn Lower Control Arm Bushing on the Drivers side\n Slightly Torn Lower Control Arm Bushing on Passengers side\n Rear Struts-Weak(Not Leaking) on both sides\n Weak Battery(Rough Starting)\n 4-Wheel Alignment\n Broken Dog bone motor mount bushing\n\nFilip called me letting me know the changes(Low Pressure Steering hose, Battery, Motor Mount) and that the cost would not change because the combination of the Dog bone motor mount and the low pressure power steering hose equaled the cost of the high pressure steering hose. What shocked me was that the dealership didn't even noticed the completely blown out bushing on the dog bone mount and the weak battery. Filip noticed that the battery was from O-Reilly and called to see if it was a free warranty replacement and thankfully he was able to get a new battery for free saving me money and being stuck somewhere because my battery died. One of the other things you may have noticed between the lists was the exaggerations on key repairs(Leaking, etc..). Filip finished the majority of the repairs on Saturday and then had the alignment completed on Sunday. The car was repaired in the timeframe that Filip indicated and now it drives like it was new. Filip knows customers service and understands the needs of the customer. Filip is My New Automotive Repair Technician. Thank You Filip!!!!

this review is not good because I can't even get into their website or get there a app to download on my phone...they say they're in Las Vegas but I keep getting a problem when I try and get a quote for a trip...help!

01

They have suspended service in Nevada! Only two stars cause they still list Las Vegas as served on their website and it took me 20 minutes to find out that is BA.

01

My expectations were crushed. Phoenix needs a Tucson Tamale like place with a wide selection of fun and delcious tamales.\n\nAlas the Steamed Tamale only offers two, A beef tamale and a corn one. Even more confusing is that by default the non meat tamale comes in a green meet sauce.\n\nThe corn Tamale it self was bland and their normal prices are not cheap. \n\nThere are a few seats inside and a few dirty tables on the patio. Not very inviting.\n\nThis was a one time visit for me.

New Szechuan restaurant with genuine Chengdu chef. They have a westernized menu, but for the good stuff look to the Chinese one. Dishes are authentic and inexpensive. There is a lot of variety to the dishes but certainly most are at least somewhat spicy.

12

I came here to try traditional Chendu Szechuan cuisine and was happy. Squirrel Hill is quickly becoming Pittsburgh's Chinatown- I read a review that raved about the silky tofu and pork intestine - I ordered and liked it- but felt it was too heavy on the Szchuan oil - it pooled in the pot. I also ordered the fish filet in hot pot ( a Traditional Chendu dish) note it is spicy-be ready with the rice- it had the same sauce as the silky tofu was good but again had too much oil. The two home runs were the water spinach with fresh garlic and the shreaded tea smoked duck with ginger. Was not as cheap as I thought based on the other reviews- Entrees were around $16 they are large enough to share. Service was fair polite but they forgot to serve rice and were hard to get refills on tea and water- I am not a fan of the utility of plastic chop sticks for picking up silky tofu but like that they are washable - I love the traditional family style food, large round tables and the thunder of the pins crashing on the bowling lanes upstairs.

12

I have been waiting for a while for The Bar to open up and was happy with the final product. I sat at the bar and they had fast service great atmosphere (Thursday Night football was on). There is an abundance of HD TVs to watch sports on when I want to get out of the house. Very clean, approachable gaming bar, that makes you feel comfortable and welcome when you come in. The reason for the 4 stars and not full 5 was a mix up with my food order. The manager of the establishment came over and made sure that the problem was taken care of and made me want to return even though my first experience was not perfect.

12

Great food AND service !! Food really tasty too must try tater tots with crumbled bleu cheese omg good

12

This is cool place to eat. Great atmosphere and good food. Good people. Food has been great every time I go.

12

This bar sucks. Wow I was so excited anout this place. Adam and most of the bartenders are literally a 4 out of 10. Even tipping ten bucks a drink there slow. I was so excited about this place and needless to say this place is a joke. PTs much better service. What a joke to Las Vegas.

01

Joseph is great to work with! He has done our family photos several times and they always come out great!

12

I was the other patron with Scott M who wrote the first review. He went into great detail of our experience so I will limit mine. All I have to say is the drinks were amazing. The smashed irishman was an awesome drink. I love how balanced and uniquely crafted the drinks were. They go into great detail when making these drinks and they could be loaded with various types of spirits and you would not have a clue what was in it. Everything balances out to bring a wonderful drink to your mouth. Nick was our bartender and he was on top his game. He answered all the hard questions we through at him and explained all the different items on the menu both food and drink. Jason the GM was great as well. Very thankful for him to give us the ultimate VVIP (very very important person) experience before they were even open to the public. The soft opening is tonight and the hard opening is December 9th. I'll be back on December 9th with friends and other family members to say hello to Nick and Jason and enjoy some great food and amazing drinks and toss a few bags around as well. \n\nThis is going to be a great hit for Tempe. It will bring a nice diverse crowd and not so much the college scene as it will be for everyone. Keep in mind its no longer referred to as Mill Ave but now \""Downtown Tempe\"" with new businesses going up just off Mill Ave such as Postino's, east of Mill and now The Yard and The Lodge west of Mill. It's more of a district that you can enjoy vs a single strip of bars. \n\nLastly, parking is not an issue here. This is a huge bonus for them with an adjacent lot that has 800 parking spots available which is free after 4pm. You can easily park, play, eat and go home. No fighting for traffic spots and walking a distance to get to your destination.

12

Excellent food and very impressed with services. The waiter Conor was awesome .I shared with him my list of food allergies and next thing you know the General Manager Jason took my list show it to the chef and I end up having a great meal . Very grateful Thank you.

One sentence, so nice, so cool...

First time at this club and I hear crickets. Where is everybody tonight? Complete waste of time except for the crew I'm with. Might give it another shot some other time:(

Over rated hype.\nI have been here twice now, and both times I found the food to be average at best. \nThe first time I went, it was very busy, and it was like watching someone herd cats when it came to getting the orders out to people.\nThe restaurant is small, and gets real small with the crowd that has been there of late. You can get a few people in line to order, but then there is a massive group standing around waiting at a small counter for their food. \nThe drive-thru is always long, and in my 2nd trip there, I did use the drive-thru and watched people who would enter the place after I already placed my order, walk up, order, get their food and leave before I even went up 1 spot. \nSo my advice is go inside if it is a slower period in the day.\nThe food was OK. I had a chicken sandwich, that I have had better at other places, and some really nasty greasy chicken strips. It was hard to tell if the juice coming from strip was grease of juice from the chicken. I am missing something here with this chain and their food because I found it to be OK. \nThe staff working the counter was really seemed to be in a hurry the whole time I was ordering. Once my order was placed, I was told to stand to the right for my food, yet the person bringing it to me was coming from the left. Like I said before, herding cats. \nThe drive-thru person was just as useless it seemed to me. I handed her my credit card, she dropped it, I had to pull forward and stand at the drive-thru window to pay for my order. I could have gone inside and done this if I wanted to get out of my car. While standing there, she was telling the manager that I dropped the card and was the reason for the hold up. \nThis place should be getting a 1 star, but solo because it was not the worst experience I have ever had, and because the 1st time I went in it was REALLY busy, I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt. But the drive-thru experience was totally uncalled for, and really should have me giving this place a 0 star. \nI know this is a fast food joint. I know there is a stereotype that comes with the workers at fast food joints, but I would like to think that this place would break the mold and have people working there that know their left from there right, know how to grab something, and know not to b.s about something in front of the customer. \nFool me once.....

01

I am a transplant to Madison from Va and while I love living in Madison there are many things I miss from home. Chick fil a is one of those things! I was so excited when they opened one 5 min from my house! Stopped by the day after their grand opening and was almost deterred by the crowd. Convinced my husband to stick it out with me. Surprisingly the massive line took no time to get through and I got my chick fil a! This is the only fast food restaurant I ever eat at. Love the food and they are always so friendly.

12

Came in here because I saw the word \""cheesecake\"" & had to. (Haha) Very cozy and well decorated cafe. Very clean as well. The owner was there & was kind. We left with 2 cheesecakes from the case. Both were yummy! So rich & creamy! We will be back for random cheesecake cravings or to order cheesecakes for events.

When you look hard enough, there are some amazing mom & pop shops to be found in Las Vegas. Although a bit different, as this is more of a mom & daughter team, Gotta Love Cheesecake is a truly one of a kind spot...\n\nThe owners, mom Kathy, and daughter Heidi moved to Las Vegas from Michigan to make reality of their mother/grandmothers dream to open a bakery. They've set up shop in the Northwest part of the valley just off Ann & Rainbow. In fact, this review is a little bittersweet for me as they've taken over the exact same spot where Legends Cafe used to be. Sadly another great mom & pop that shut down due to complaints from neighboring residents. But luckily, Gotta Love Cheesecake aren't going to be running a smoke pit outside and are hopefully here to stay!\n\nIf the name didn't give it away, this shop is a bakery that focuses much of its attention on fresh, scratch made cheesecakes. Over 25 flavors are available, including seasonal selections, and they rotate daily. They come standard in a 4\"" personal size for $5.95, but can also be custom ordered in a couple different larger sizes (8\"", 9\"" & 10\""). For custom orders, they only ask for 24 hours advanced notice, and while not directly advertised, Kathy & Heidi said they'll also do just about flavor request, even off the menu.\n\nNow, if you're looking for something made in a factory, frozen, shipped and then thawed on location *ahem Cheesecake Factory*, this isn't the place for you. Every cheesecake is scratch made from bottom to top. Starting with the crust, which I think is a signature for them. It's thick, buttery and adds bother flavor and texture to the cheesecakes. The filling itself is silky, smooth and has the perfect creamy texture. It's also very flavorful, especially when you go with something more bold, like the chocolate mint. And depending on what you order, you'll get even more flavor with yup, you guessed it, scratch made toppings. You can really taste the love, and respect the time they put into their classic family recipes. \n\nWhat's even more exciting, at least for cheesecake or even overall sweets lovers like me, is that they're continuously looking to branch out with new flavors. Rumor has it there might be something with maple, maybe even a bacon & maple on the horizon. I may or may not have it had a little influence on that one. ;)\n\nGotta Love Cheesecake isn't only making spectacular cheesecakes either. They also rotate different daily treats including scratch made cookies, dessert rolls and other baked goods. And if that weren't enough, they also serve up coffee and over half a dozen fresh loose leafed teas. Top all that off with some of the absolute friendliest service you can find, and a nice homey feeling little shop, this is a must try spot, regardless what side of town you're coming from.

12

I understanding that it's the grand opening but things seem very unorganized. The cashier in condescending in questioning everything you order. Ordering in itself is a challenge because you have to write down your order...since this is my first time here I was unsure on what to do. The gentleman taking the order was no help. \n\nFood: Amazing. \nPrice: Great \nEfficiency: Poor \nOverall experience: Blah\nWill I be back: my wife likes it so yes.

01

I wasn't sure what to order so I ordered one of my favorite side dishes. Mac and cheese. I was extremely disappointed it was very dry and bland. It cost almost 4 bucks im really glad I didn't get more i really was hoping that it was good. The portion was a good amount , just lacking taste and cheese.

01

Have eaten here twice and both times were a big disappointment. First time was for shrimp and fries - standard deep fried stuff and nothing special. I tried again and had the pulled pork with two sides - mac & cheese and the greens. The greens were the best thing on the plate which has to be one of the most disappointing statements one could make. The mac and cheese was dry and as bland as anything. The pulled pork was a disaster. The appearance should have been warning enough - unappetizing looking slop. The taste? I am sure there was pork in there as I got a very faint hint of smokiness from time to time. However, other than a somewhat stringy texture amongst the overwhelming flavor of sugar it could have been anything. Did I mention the overly sweet sugar taste? That was all you got. Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar. I only ate half because it was just impossible to continue eating. And all that for $9\n\nSuch a shame

We have purchased homes in the past and have always had issues with our realtors until we met Karen. She was very knowledgeable and even though we were very particular in what we wanted she was able to find us our dream home. Her professionalism and attention to detail when we made our offer actually made the owners pass up a better offer and choose ours. Karen walked us through the whole process and set up all the appointments which allowed us to focus on securing the loan. She answered all our questions and treated us more like long time friends than just clients. Even after we had closed on the house Karen remembered my daughters birthday and took the time to send her a card. Karen was an absolute blessing and I am extremely thankful to her for all she did for us. I will recommend Karen to anyone I know who is looking for a new home!

Searching for good BBQ and Mexican food in Montreal has often proved to be a challenge for those who appreciate authentic and tasty options. After travelling around the Southern United States, and making a yearly voyage to Texas, I can attest to how good Tejano BBQ is. The amazing team behind Blackstrap BBQ, the only authentic slow smoked Texas style BBQ in the city, finally brings delicious burritos to Montreal's food scene. All of their mission style burritos are great, but special mention has to be given to the brisket, slow smoked from Blackstrap and flavoured with a Mexican twist. You can't go wrong with whatever you order and I have been back several times to check each burrito off my to-do list. The perfect marriage of BBQ and Mexican Burritos, Tejano, which means a Texan of Spanish or Mexican decent, honours its name and heritage.

My first experience of what I would qualify as true BBQ occurred a few years ago now when Blackstrap BBQ opened down in Verdun. I remember hearing about this new Southern BBQ joint opening and being interested enough to go on the first Friday they were open - getting in just before they ran out of meat - and being in awe of the level of smokiness and juiciness that the crew achieved with their meats. From that moment on, it was pretty clear to me that I would go whenever Dylan Kier and his pit mastery would go next. That thought process is what brought me a few times over the past month to his most recent project, a small burrito joint called Tejano BBQ Burrito.\n\nLocated in St-Henri right beside Bar de Courcelles and nearby many of my favorite different culinary spots - quick shout out to Campinelli, Rustique, Leche and Grumman 78 - Tejano feels primarily set up as a take out joint although there is a small sitting area with about 7 stools. The space is sparse - plain white walls with old partially sanded down wood used for the counters. Some smooth laid back music in the background. The menu printed on paper tacked above the ordering counter. The look is definitely in keeping with its older brother Blackstrap BBQ - functional and sparse with just enough of a style and vibe keeping with a southern BBQ joint.\n\nBut let's be honest - you don't go to a Burrito space for the decor. It's all about the food of course. At present, the menu is short and concise - burritos (regular and XL sized), tostadas, salads, guac, salsa and chips. For the burritos and tostadas, there are 3 meat options (smoked chicken tinga, chorizo pulled pork, rancho cumin brisket) and one vegetarian (black beans and hominy). Once you make your selection of a base, you can add either re-fried beans, black beans and hominy (if you went with a meat) and/or rice then a collection of different vegetables (pico de gallo, red onions, radishes, jalape\u00f1os, peppers, corn, etc...) followed by cheese, fresh lime juice, house guacamole, hot sauce and/or sour cream.\n\nIn terms of the burritos, all those options leave you with a fully stuffed burrito and a rather filling one as well. I tried both the pulled pork and the brisket options in burrito form. In keeping with Dylan's work at Blackstrap BBQ, the quality of the meats is impeccable. The pulled pork has that little heat from the chorizo and is wonderfully tender and juicy. The brisket is the same with just a subtle touch of the cumin which gives off a smokier element than the pork. In terms of the other ingredients, I enjoyed both bean options although I'm not sure I would enjoy a black bean and hominy burrito on its own - a meatless burrito just seems wrong to me. All the vegetables are fresh and crisp. Loved the creaminess of the guacamole although I'm not a huge fan of it being the only ingredient that costs extra to add in. Overall, excellent burritos that would be a regular lunch option for me if I worked anywhere nearby (which I don't sadly in this case).\n\nThe new menu item for me here was the Tostada which I had never heard of before. Basically, a burrito bowl - all the same ingredients pilled over top a crispy tortilla shell. The crisp shell was good but honestly, other than the texture change with that crispiness, it's not all that different from the burrito. A different presentation but given how I loved the burritos, I think I'll stick to those personally.\n\nReasonable price, good quality and quantity of food and quick service - All in all, Dylan, Clara and Co. have a great concept going with Tejano BBQ Burrito. It has only been open for about a month now but given what I've enjoyed, I suspect we will hear about this spot a lot more and very quickly in this new year. That particular corner of St-Henri is quickly becoming one of my favourite areas to enjoy food wise... I think i'll be visiting even more often in 2015!\n\nCheers!

No!\n\nI placed my initial order with BS and thats what it is BS! They entice you with a food credit or free delivery, but you have to purchase a minimum amount which is always $20 or more. I ended up choosing Southern Style Eatery for dinner and was excited to use this service. I ended up paying 18.22 out of pocket.\n\nDelivery guy Ronald was a very nice guy who delivered quickly, one of my entrees was incorrect so I contacted BS and was issued a refund for that one entree... come to find out it was a credit to my BS account. \n\nEverything went well until tonight. I placed an order for pickup from Chili's, I used my credit and paid for the difference. I sat there watching the tracker for 10 mins then finally started vacuuming. During this time BS contacted me and left a voice mail advising me the pricing on the menu was incorrect and if I had questions or needed help to email them or live chat. I immediately went to my laptop only to see they charged my card an additional amount, yet I never authorized this! When I contacted them via live chat \""Andrew\"" stated the menu prices were incorrect and that was the additional fee. I'm fine with the fees, but I'm not fine with being charged without being asked or told. THAT'S A HUGE MISTAKE! I asked to cancel the entire order and to please be refunded and Andrew stated he will credit my BS account... NO.... NOOO! Stop crediting my account, refund my GD debit card you liars! \""Sure in 3-5 business days\"" of course.\n\nBite Squad claims they do not mark up their food, THIS IS A LIE. I noticed Southern Style Eateries menu and the po boy I ordered was only 6.49... not the 8.49 I paid. Same with the catfish, I paid 10.99 for 3 pcs catfish and chicken and it should've only been 9.00.\n\nWhen I advised Andrew, he told me to email support@bitesquad.com with any \""inquiries\""\n\nAVOID THIS SERVICE.\n\n**Addendum** One of the co-founders Arash emailed me to offer a $50 credit if I deleted my negative review so they can have a \""clean slate\"" When I advised I could update my review, Arash said he would like for me to delete it instead. After 6 emails later, he said he would give me the credit AFTER I updated my review... based on what? During this time he stated the reason why businesses hate Yelpers is because we are all irrational and that 95% of Yelpers don't even leave reviews (Where do they come from?). When I would not come to terms with him and told him he was harassing me, he stated that I will soon be on the other side of the coin and that karma is a b****... This is also an issue in Seattle... Had this issue been taken care of when I first brought it to their attention, this would be a different story. One piece of information that he gave me was that soon enough BS Vegas will have \""over 4 star reviews\"" Funny how 2 of the 5 star reviews are from patrons living in Seattle... where BS is headquartered. This is all too shady for me. Delete your review for a credit? NAH.

Tried it....LOVED IT!!! Will tell many and will enjoy this amazing service again. The delivery fee was reasonable and the service, prompt and exactly what we ordered.

This place use to be called Tiffany's (check there for reviews). First time here the epitome of five dinner. I'm in freaking love!

C.Love is a wonderful spiritual guide. She is inspirational yet truthful in her analysis. She assisted me in seeing the positive in my most difficult of moments. Her insights are uncanny. I highly recommend her guidance.

12

I was looking for a medium to do a reading for me and my mom. Love was recommended by a good friend and I am so grateful I got to meet her and be a part of such an amazing experience. Love has a truly special gift and I was in awe of not only that gift but of her presence. She has a such a calm, loving aura and I felt so comfortable with her right away. I am looking forward to doing a Reiki session with her soon.

C. Love Jordan is a truly gifted and intuitive healer and teacher. One could not ask for a more wonderful spiritual guide. Just her presence inspires confidence and trust. Whatever your healing or spiritual needs, you could not find a better person to help guide you along your path.\n\nShe is my Reiki Master teacher and has provided me wonderful Reiki healing. She is a spiritual jewel of the first-order. Give her a try. I guarantee you won't be sorry.

Drove past last night and noticed a new Bakery. Came to eat first thing in the morning to find out it was opening morning for the Bakery. I had the Apple Cranberry Oatmeal, and a frappe Mocha. Both were very good. Oatmeal was a nice sized portion and very good.

I work very close and often come for breakfast and lunch, The food has always been good and I love that they have gluten free options. It can be pricey if you do choose the gluten free bread though ($2). I'd rather not spend $10 a day for lunch. \n\nThe wait service is pretty attentive and I can tell they are trying to make a good impression.

Great stop during your stay at SLS, plus it's free! \n\nI was able to experience the Iconic Images Gallery a few times, both before and after it's completion and I must say it's a great reason to start using the hashtag, #GalleryPorn. The works of Terry O'Neill are truly amazing and a fantastic glimpse into the golden age of Hollywood, the grimy British music uprising of the 60's, and the soft side of Agent 007. \n\nThe works here are for sale, but they may put a hefty dent in your wallet. I suggest browsing the halls of the Iconic Images Galley and if your eyeballs are still hungry for more beautiful and thought provoking imagery, purchase one of the awesome coffee table books for sale at the gallery. \n\nRUMOR MILL: I hear they may start offering a \""Champagne Sunday Stroll\"" in the gallery.

Another pizza place to add to my list of favorites! Before coming to Madison I'd never dreamt that pizza could be this good. I have heard all about Salvatore's but I'd never tried it before, the Sun Prairie location is just too far out of the way for me. But the people there must have heard me (and other pizza-lovers like me!!), and so they open an outlet here. Thanks to my co-worker I got to know about their opening and off we went on their second day. \n\nFor being a new place they were pretty busy. It was a nice and cozy restaurant on the east side (about 7 or so tables with a small bar area). Ordered the popular Carbonara pizza and it didn't disappoint. Runny egg yolks (3 eggs!!) and smooth egg whites right on top of the pizza. With mushrooms and bacon. With all the eggs on the pizza the crust is still super crispy. Enjoyed every moment of it. The small pizza was enough to share between two people. \n\nBut we were greedy so we also had the bruchetta as the appetizer. Fresh house made mozzarella with dipping bread, roasted garlic and greens on the side. I love how light the cheese is, it goes really well with the pizza. \n\nI am so excited about Salvatore's. Can't wait to be back again for more!!

\""Finally\"" would be the right word. It's \""finally\"" for those who went to its other location, and it's \""finally\"" for me, as I have been looking for a pizza to call my own in Madison for almost two years now. But it also isn't \""finally\"" in that Sal's needs to get on a west side location ASAP.\n\nI'm not into the California-style pizza with the garden on top, but their \""tomato pie\"" (regular pie) is a keeper. It's closer to a margarita in how the cheese sits next to the sauce, and that's the real winner: the flavorful sauce. The tomato pie is very well balanced, much less greasy than Glass Nickel's and much lighter on the cheese (around the same price, not a \""cheap\"" pie). I will still be back again and again.\n\nWent on a Friday night and it was absolutely packed. Hard-to-get-in-and-out-of-the-door packed. Lots of sad people are going to be waiting outside in the cold this winter as there isn't enough waiting room. Lucky for Sal's, I have a great remedy: open a west side location.

What can I say Mexicans can't make sushi lol... Being Mexican myself I should have known better than to go there my baby loves sushi so we had to take her but I must say it was disgusting..... We had the hot wings and fries tastes like fish I'm not sure if they use the same oil which would explain the taste.... We also had the rainbow rolls they where okay I guess... The carne Asada rolls where the worst ..... I had two and asked them to remove them from the table ... A normal restaurant would have token it off the bill seeing as it was hardly eaten but not this place I must say it was the worst 53 dollars i've ever spent and will I ever come back .... I DON'T THINK SO...

i should have trusted my instinct- HOW CAN YOU TRUST AN ASIAN COOKING MEXICAN FOOD OR VICE VERSA??? but let me give you a piece of advise.. FOR you TO know if its a good sushi/asian restaurant you HAVE see abunch of asian in that place... the food /sushi and miso soup was cold.... \n\nservice sucks, the waitress were unprofessional ....the food was expensive and the food sucks...

Had been hoping for a good sushi restaurant in our little town, but once again, CG has worked its dark magic & given me yet another reason to head to Phoenix. The service was seriously lacking, the menu had no drinks listed (not even soda) and the 2 menus my bf and I received were both printed differently. To continue the inconsistent theme, all of my BFs food came out at once; the rice came out last WTH, 5 minutes later PART of mine arrived, then we had to remind the waitress that I had also ordered miso soup ( which should've come out before any of the sushi). Once all that was taken care of, my bf instantly noticed the over sized slices of salmon on his roll. While more is usually a good thing, if you can't consistently slice fish (or any food for that matter) you have NO business being a sushi chef. The thick slices threw off the flavor consistency of the roll, and he didn't even finish his food; which has never happened at a sushi restaurant... Ever! He said the flavor was OK, not bad, but the whole experience was \""just off\"" and \""not right\"". My Caramelo roll tasted good, but it wasn't even sliced all the way thru, so ever other time I picked up a bite, it unwrapped the next piece. I ended up cutting the damn thing with a fork! That chef needs to go back to school and work on his knife skills PRONTO! This all happened at 2pm, so it's not as if they were busy at all. Just like every thing else in Casa Grande, Senor Sushi suffers from laziness. This town has a long way to go. Nothing will ever improve if the people don't take pride in what they do; no matter how big or small the job. The wait staff was far too casual, they acted as if they were doing someone a favor by filing in for them. They seemed lost, almost like they didn't belong. Won't be returning.

This is NOT SUSHI! way to much deep fried and rice can't even taste the so called sushi!

This place use to be a little italian joint with pretty damn good pizza. Now it is your typical new american eatery. \n\nDamn if wasn't craving a burger and looked out the window to see this place. Awesome. \n\nSo I cant speak to anything but the FFs burger and coke. But mmhmm good! \n\nIt seems everybody is putting their own flair on a burger these days. This one had the red onion jam. RED ONION JAM WTF? Ok sign me up. Anything with jam as an ingredient is a must try. Right? But hold the kale. Im not a kale person. Arugula instead please. \n\nNo complaints. Good stuff. Heres the kicker. Im a mustard person. Part Polish, so mustard and sausage is my thing. \n\nHere, they have legit course ground brown mustard. So thats pretty huge in my book. \n\nCheck em out if your in the area. If you are really smart you would eat here before going to an event at the arena and just leave your car here. Atleast, I would. I mean, good food before event, drinks after with dessert and you parked the car for free. Duh. That a no brainer in this guys opinion.\n\nUpdate. Grand opening is in two weeks sooo... Nom nom nom.

My wife disagrees with the two star rating thinking it should only get one. My thinking is: 1 for good service and one for cleanliness. Even though the vibe (decor and music) is mid-nineties, it's well done. The positive remarks end there unfortunately. We ordered the Mediterranean Board for an appetizer and split the burger. The fries (although greasy) and the hummus wasn't bad, but the taziki, chicken and beef skewers lacked any sort of Mediterranean flavor whatsoever. They must have been out of salt and lemon because I've never had anything so bland before. The meat was overdone, charred and had too much gristle. No where near restaurant quality in my humble opinion. The burger was sloppy and barely edible. Bad meat? I'm not sure, but we both had stomachaches after the meal. I feel bad giving them such a bad review, but their chef needs to figure out how to actually cook, not just create a cool menu. We will not be back.

Thinking I'd have a nice Italian dinner from Villa Francesca, I was surprised to see the new @7th Restaurant. I decided to give it a try. I sat at the bar to have a glass of wine and take out. Since it was New Year's Eve, they offered a good-ol' traditional special of pork belly, collard greens and black eyed peas. The pork belly was probably the best I've ever had. It had a sweet-salty crust and was rich and tender. Decadent! The collards had good flavor but I did detect a wee bit of grit. The black eyed peas were just slightly under cooked. I don't like mushy but would rather not have too crunchy.\nThe service at the bar was very good.\nBasically, I will definitely go back to @7th. They have a really nice decor, great location and a good thing going. They should be able to do well.

Okay I must admit, I was a wee bit worried. Sneaking into a building on a Sunday evening, through the back door, winding through corridors, following the yelp cookie trail signs, up the elevators, more corridors... it felt like a cross scene from TV Show \""Amazing Race\"" and some Scary movie. Let's just say that I was really glad to hear the muffled sound of laughter of my Yelper friends celebrating behind the doors of Centrale Culinaire! \n\nUpon entering, you could smell the rich fragrance of freshly roasted peanuts used in a sauce that accentuated a vegetarian stir fry dish that everyone enjoyed - so much that the plates were wiped clean! Meanwhile had the chance to stand, sit and walk around to reconnect with some familiar faces and got to meet new +1 friends (hopefully soon to be avid yelpers)!\n\nTo conclude the evening, we probably all ingested more than our recommended daily allowance of sugar, butter and flour by systematically going from plate to plate, alternating between cookie and a drink, to decide which was the best cookie - but heck, it was so worth it! Others were a little bit more shrewd and dove in, like an eagle, swiping a sample of each cookie and bringing the loot back to their lair and split the cookies amongst their team. Candy canes were dropped into cups of cookie favorites and a winner was crowned! \n\nRisa, thank you for organizing this memorable evening; once again kudos for originality! And to all of my Yelper friends: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year - Hope to see you at the next event!

Came in during the art show and was blown away at the treasures I found. Items are always changing and nothing is ever two of a kind here. If you are looking for that special certain piece for your home that no one else will also have this is the place to go!
