Not really a fan of anything they offered food and service was not even worth writing a full review!!

Corey is the man!!!!!!\n\nIt was first time in Snots-dale or some even call it Snobs-dale, AZ for the SF Giants spring training and my girlfriends and I really had an Amazing time at Majerle's Sports Grill.....\n\nWe walked in based on the fact that we were hungry, the music and vibe of the place was what we wanted to start the night with. I especially loved the fact that this spot had about 25 huge Samsung flat screens on every wall ( a real sports grill better have a tv on every wall)!!!!! \n\nThe food, the service, and especially the manager/DJ ( Corey) really made it that much more of a hot spot throughout the night for my gf's and I that we could NOT seem to leave. We celebrated Stephanie G's 29th b-day like a bunch of classy GIRLS GONE WILD that night! \n\nI can't wait to visit the staff and dance the night away while watching the BEST hip hop and r&b videos on all those awesome TV's!!! \n\nUntil next year Majerle's =)

We came here a few months ago, but I can definitely say I won't be back. The food and service were slow, really slow. The food was also nothing spectacular. Portions were small and dismal looking. Definitely a disappointing place for nachos and beer.

I had the pork sliders.\nBased on that i cant recommend the place.\nIf you're staying at the Cosmopolitan, try one of the other restaurants.\nThe service was good however.

The place looked good from the outside. Yet, as I ordered one of their burgers, I was disappointed. The beef patty was very thin and soggy. The fries were, in addition to sharing the sogginess of the burger, a tad cold. The place was packed though--so, it must have been one of those orders that did not hit the mark. I am not sure I would go back.

I stopped to get a quick bite to eat and wasn't disappointed. Beef chow mein is delcious, it's not the bland stuff you'll find at similar joints. Orange chicken is also A grade. Service was quick to us and quick to deliver.

The veggie burger here is ok, I enjoyed the appetizers more. We had cheese sticks and fried pickles. The atmosphere is interesting--mocking, faux retro-Soviet culture. I guess I need to explain the two stars--if I go to a place that specializes in burgers and they offer a veggie burger I expect it to be something memorable, not two garden burgers in a large bun that I can get pretty much anywhere else.

My friend had recommended Spinato's Pizza so I decided to try it out with her since I had never been and she had liked it. Spinato's is a locally owned family pizzeria that started in Phoenix in 1974. They now have 5 locations spread throughout the valley. Since I'm not a big fan of chain restaurants, I was more than excited to try this new pizzeria especially since it was Chicago style pizza. The best pizza I ever had was in fact in Chicago.\n\nWe arrived around 5:30 on Friday evening and the place was starting to getting crowded. The hostess seated us in the bar area since it seemed like a more ideal place to sit versus the dining room. She dropped off the menus and advised that our server would be with us momentarily. We waited about 15 minutes or so before our server acknowledged that we were in her section. She got our drink and food orders since we had more than enough time to make up our minds.\n\nMy friend opted to get the Going Greek salad (side $3.99) and the Tomato Basil Bruschetta ($7.29). I decided on the personal 7\" sized Baked Spaghetti Calzone w/meatballs ($5.49). I decided to not drink as I had to drive and I wanted to get dessert.\n\nShe got her salad and the bruschetta which she shared with me. When I think of bruschetta, I imagine it on a sturdy crispy piece of french bread or baguette not on a piece of focaccia. Now don't get me wrong - I love focaccia as much as the next person, but focaccia isn't a sturdy piece of bread to pile on tomatoes drenched in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The bruschetta was good but did not blow me away by any means. It had good flavor but it's not something that sticks out in my mind.\n\nHalf way through the bruschetta, our server brought the baked spagetti calzone which was enormous and I got the smallest size! I can only imagine what the other sizes look like (out of control). It smelled delicious and had marinara sauce spilling over the top of it. I took my first bite and was absolutely horrified by what I tasted. The sauce was sweet?! Who on earth makes sweet marinara sauce? That should be a crime! It didn't even have the slight essence of Italian herbs that are a requirement in all marinara sauces and the sweetness was overbearing. I had to doctor it up by piling on the parmeasan and the red pepper flakes before I deemed it edible. I was able to eat half of it before I decided it was time for dessert.\n\nThe dessert was Spinato's only saving grace from getting one star from me. I'm partially lactose intolerant and can't eat ice cream, ranch or sour cream (I know my life sucks!) they had gelato which I can eat! My friend got two scoops of vanilla bean and chocolate and I decided to get pistachio, raspberry sorbet, and vanilla bean. The gelato was decadently smooth and creamy. I wasn't thrilled about the pistachio as I could sense the almond extract in it and I'm not a fan! The raspberry and vanilla bean made up for it. The raspberry sorbet was tart and sweet and mixed with the vanilla bean balanced each other out.\nWe had to be wheeled out because we were so full...it was official - I had a spaghetti calazone baby! Overall, I was not impressed with Spinato's and there are better pizzerias in Phoenix that one can go to. I like that it's locally owned, a family owned business, and their gelato.

I love this place! 1000 times better than Emilianos! The margaritas and food are both equally delicious. Affordable prices, great service, and a relaxing atmosphere make El Toro one of my favorite additions to the South Side.

Cha Ching! Cha Ching! This place hits the jackpot for me. The \"Perfect burger\" was truly perfection. It made my last meal on earth list and my list is really short. WOW!! It was so good my hubby and I came back for seconds within a 4 day span. We also had the sliders, and the #8 burger...but we still went back to the \"perfect burger\". I also loved the sweet potato fries and the onion rings...yum! To top it off I ordered the mojito...a tall minty glass on a hot Las Vegas day....YEEESSSS!!

\"I want it, oh, I want it\nOh, I want it for my own\nI've got to know\nI've got to know\nWhat is this place that I have found? \nWhat's this?\" - J. Skellington\n\n\nThe lunch bunch had wanted to enjoy Crepe Bar for many months, but had been previously scared away by reports of insane wait times and limited seating (sohwee Janee P). Realizing that they took reservations, I set aside a table for 6 (really 8) about two weeks prior. And boy, am I glad I did.\n\nWalking in with Ann R, I didn't see an available table in the place... which is when I noticed J-WoW and Linh were occupying the table of highest honors... the reserved hi-top.\n\nRealizing that our party of 4 was not getting any larger, we shifted to one side of the table to free up four contiguous chairs, because we're thoughtful and stuff.\n\nOur Sep outing found us at Salut Kitchen Bar with the greatest waitress of all time: Keary. I found her male counterpart: Cody. This dude embodied the essence of Crepe Bar, fun, witty, timely, and able to turn down a bribe. I'll be back with more cash...\n\nBeing our first time, the table took a while to lock in on palatable entrees, and Cody didn't rush, even though the place was packed. Even better, since we were at a reserved table, we didn't have to order at the counter.\n\nDining in a group really is the only way to go. I paid for one savory crepe, yet was a partaker in four amazing crepe combinations. I couldn't pick a favorite, they were all so good!\n\nAnd Cody had the sensibility to hold off on the sweet crepes until our party had completed round 1. But what's this? We were being treated to a sampling of paper thin cut radishes on cultured butter. Hey, it could have been served with ignorant margarine, and I wouldn't have known the difference, but it was nice to feel so froufrou... because, you know.. I'm in the fast lane from LA to Tokyo. Okay\n\nUpon arrival, I knew J's dessert was going to take the cake. That crepe was bananas, B.A.N.A.N.A.S. That crepe was also nutella, N.U.T.E.L.L.A!\n\nOne more round of free resplendent Rollos and we were ready for our PhotoOp... which Cody and team made happen. Overall, it was a FABULOUS lunch. I'll award the Crepe Bar an: A + + + + + + + + + + !\n\nAnd I didn't even have to use my AK, today was a good day

I have been wanting to try Drybar forever! So, when a friend was getting married on a Thursday, I figured it would be the perfect opportunity. \n\nWhoever booked my appointment over the phone was fabulous. She was so friendly, answered all of my questions, and got me in exactly when I needed to.\n\nI arrived a few minutes early, not knowing what to expect. I waited a few minutes and was taken back promptly for my appointment with Katie. I explained to her I wasn't really sure what I wanted, but that it needed to be quick. I also hadn't washed my hair since Monday in preparation for a possible Uptini, which is what my appointment was scheduled for. I showed her a few pictures on Pinterest, she gave her professional opinion, we agreed on a style and she went to work. \n\nNow, this is important: My hair was done in a half hour. A HALF HOUR!! She was super fast and it looked great. I had planned on being there for at least 1.5 hours. If you need a quick updo, book with Katie. You will not regret it. \n\nEveryone was friendly, it was clean, not too crazy busy, and they had The Devil Wears Prada playing. So fun! I'd love to try this with my girlfriends one day. \n\nThe only reason I am giving this 4 stars is because there was literally no conversation during my appointment. I wasn't sure if I caught Katie on a bad day or if she was just in a super hurry to get me in and out like I asked. I just kind of felt like she was annoyed with me, I hope she wasn't!!\n\nI'll definitely be back.

Poor Customer Service! I visit this location fairly often but tonight was the worst! Marvin, the manager took my order, and got it wrong. When I explained to him it wasn't what I ordered nor was it what he repeated back he basically shrugged his shoulders and said oh well. He did nothing to rectify the issue, not even a simple apology which I would have gladly accepted as mistakes happen. I asked for the corporate number and he said its on the website. I jumped right on the website to a \"contact us\" form. Site stated the business hours are from 8a-5p and it may take 96 hours to respond as the personally respond to all messages. Approximately 10 minutes after I hit submit, I get this generic email stating we're sorry you're not pleased! I'm not buying it at all. I enjoy wingstop but I will not be returning. Throughout my years in customer service I've learned customers will tolerate a lot but poor service isn't one of them!

June 25, 2014: Normally this place has pretty good food. Their pretzels with cheese are really good. Today my work colleagues and I went to Pranksters for lunch. When we got there we immediately were overwhelmed by the smell of urinal cakes and raw sewage. It was overwhelming but when we asked the waitress about it, she said she didn't notice it. Really? I think she was instructed not to acknowledge it if customers were to ask about it. How could she NOT notice?\n\nUpdate: July 18: my co workers and I went back, expecting that the odor would be now resolved. No luck. We walked in, took one breath, and were hit with the exact same odor as 4 weeks prior. We turned around and got back in the car. A man, I presume was the manager, followed us outside and apologized and told us they had someone coming to address it later that day. \n\nI can't imagine going back again.

Always a great place to stay.\nVery clean, and attentive.\nThey offer free Internet and a great Tapas bar to unwind from a long day away from home and family. \n\nWhen traveling on personal trips the hinton would be my go to hotel, very close to Metro and other fine dining.

I scheduled an appointment with the Dr. He never came in. The PA came in for 5 minutes. He barely did a physical exam. Never even tested for reflexes! Complained to the office manager. Had to track her down and keep calling to reach her. Horrible practicioners and patient service. I found another Dr. Complete different attitude. She did a complete physical exam and spent time with me. Never go to AZ Center for Pain!!!

Vey clean place a bit pricy but if you don't mind go there great experience I felt like a princess I got a gel manicure white tips with glitter cost 42 dollars. Good job on my real nails but on my broken nails I asked for a fake nail over it the lady didn't do so good on those they looked really fat and fake but they blend in well with my other nails. Overall good job!!

I wish I could give negative stars. Ordered to go and when I picked it up I asked for a couple extra soy sauce and a couple of empty containers since the kids like to have their own container. The girl behind the counter was so rude she said the extra soy sauce and containers were fifty cents each. I told her to keep them. The place also smelled bad. When I got home, the food tasted like it was prepared way before I ordered it. I wonder when the health district was there last.

Nice place but poor customer service and staff! Always state they are fully booked and not enough cleaning staff. Rooms are not updated and not thoroughly clean. Rooms not ready to well past check-in time (7pm)..horrible for a family starting vacation. They have had made major cutbacks since their own new ownership. Condos is not not even stocked with enough toilet paper or extra paper products. Greens on golf course were okay definitely not well-maintained compared to the other resorts in the area. Overall this was an okay resort definitely would be a great place to stay with the family if ownership was different and the place was maintained the way it should be.

Ok. The two stars are because the floors had many sticky diseases on it. WTF? Don't they clean the floors? But the bartenders did make me forget about the nastiness with the strong and cheap drinks. That was the only reason it didn't get one star. I'd go back if I'm in Champaign again.

Cool restaurant great neighborhood concept but the food is so bland. Store bought chips for the dips. Kids Mac and cheese is gritty and flavorless. Chicken in salad is over cooked and not seasoned. Heaping pile of raw arugula on my pizza. Salt is great resource. Thanks but no thanks not again

So maybe I'm a bit spoiled with the $15 foot reflexology massage that includes head, shoulders, arm, back, legs and feet that they have in Los Angeles. And I'm even okay with the $20 foot reflexology in San Diego. And I'm EVEN okay with paying the extra dollar in Vegas just because its VEGAS - so $29 was reasonable. However, its not one hour as the other places but 45 minutes, and they don't include a back massage. So its only shoulder, head and feet. \n\nService: Would have been good if two of the masseuse in our room didn't have their phone ring 3 TIMES. And to add to that irritating note, they had the audacity to PICK IT UP! Really??!! How unprofessional. Then the same masseuse stood outside while we paid for our service and we wanted a $20 broken for tip and she goes \"no, no break 20.\" Seriously?! \n\nIt was bordering on horrible service, luke-warm massage, so not worth of the money. By the way, on the way back from this place I see a couple of other Asian Foot Reflexology spas that just opened up on Spring Mountain Rd offering massages for $19, so I'd check those out first.

Vdara is a really nice hotel to stay in. I've seen many hotel suites in Vegas before including Caesars Palace, The Palazzo, The Venetian, and The Hotel at Mandalay Bay. The suite that my friends stayed in had a lot of features that many hotels i've stayed in didn't have. There was a small mini kitchen in our suite that included a stove top and range hood. Some other features include a doorbell system that doubles as a \"do not disturb\" as well as maid service signal. There were also automated blinds that would go up and down with the push of a button. There were also different types of room set-ups with dual 42 inch flat screens that split the living area and the bedroom area that my friends stayed at. The suite we got only had one flat screen, but felt more spacious. . \nI have to say the best part of staying in a suite at the Vdara is the view. The view from my room was a view of the Luxor, MGM, and Mandalay Bay. The view across the hall had the Bellagio, so we saw a lot of fountain shows when my friends were hanging out in that room. \n\nSome of the pros of the hotel is that the air is infused with some kind of scent, but i guess it's bad for the guests who want a substance free feel. The other pro is that the entire hotel is smoke free. There is also a walkway to the Bellagio and a tram that connects the hotel to the city center which is cool. \n\nThe only con i could think of about the hotel is that it isn't exactly on the strip. It's a fairly decent walk to get onto the strip. \n\nI can see myself staying at this hotel more than once.

Stopped here never reading reviews or anything about the place... It looked nice and classy so I figured it would be awesome. Our waitress, Sharon just wasn't pleasant at all... She slammed our drinks and plates down. Then we asked for more bread and she said \"well I'll have to charge you\" so that is fine but when she gave us the basket it only had two small pieces in it, which before each basket had about 4, so that was kinda crappy. Then one of us ordered another beer and she poured it and just let it over flow all onto the table and didn't even say a word. The crab in the stuffed mushroom app and the stuffed shrimp dinner has mostly imitation crab in it, which for the price is just unacceptable. I had just plain fettuccine Alfredo and it was great I ate the whole thing.... The lighting is just so bright and it's around dinner so I don't want to be under a heat lamp during dinner... I'm not sure if I'd go back ....

Empty on a friday night? I should have let that be a sign.\n\nMc & Schmick is like an old flame for me. I stopped eating there after the Landry's takeover (as you can read about in my review for the Mc & Schmick in Vegas). But, I thought of days gone by, and gave it another go. \n\nI ordered the sea scallops, and they looked sickly to say the least. Not even a hint of sear or color showed. The food obviously sat, too. My butter sauce was already solidifying on the plate when it was delivered. I took a photo as a reminder of why Mc & Schmick broke up. \n\nMy dad enjoyed his meal. So, I am at least happy for that. \n\nMy office is next door, but don't expect to see me there again. This old flame is finally snuffed!

Hands down the best meal I've had in Vegas... perhaps the best meal I've had period.\nFirst the ambiance. It's quite unique and spectacular. The details, the colors, the flowers, the chandelier... it all comes together beautifully and works very well for Vegas.\nNext, the service - spectacular. Best service I've ever had. This is the problem I have with a lot of SF restaurants (read: Zuni Cafe, Sebo...). Just because you have good food doesn't mean you can slack on the service. Well Joel Robuchon does not disappoint. We had numerous people come by and explain different meals, options, etc. over the course of the night and our main waiter was phenomenal. Sweet, well spoken, knew all the dishes and gave great recommendations.\nThe food - wow. Started with a caviar and crab dish. It was amazing. We started dinner close to 11 pm so didnt have time to do the 16 course tasting menu... must come back for this. I ordered the salmon tartar. Presentation was stunning and tasted very very good. I had the duck and foie gras for my main course and it was by far the best duck I have ever had. Combining it with the fruit and foie gras made the dish amazing. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate souffle, some apple or pear dish and then they sent out another dessert (pineapple I think?) because it had taken a while to seat us. Again, all were amazing. But separate from the actual courses, I would have been content with the bread and chocolate cart alone! The bread cart was phenomenal...so many good ones (favorites include the milk bread and bacon bread). And then after the dessert, the chocolate cart! Dream come true! There were sooo many different choices the waiter lost me after the 5th thing... I think there were 40 or 50 different types of chocolates, macaroons, marshmellows etc. they make inhouse. I asked him to recommend his favorites and he did a great job of picking (as he had down with the breads).\nAnd finally, they sent me home with a full bag of chocolate for the next day. They were not at all stingy about how many chocolates I could have that night and gave me a decent number to take home.\n\nOverall, couldn't have asked for more. One of the most memorable meals I've ever had and can't wait to return and try the 16 course menu. In the last 2 weeks I've had the opportunity to eat at a lot of great restaurants (Pierre Gagnaire's new place in the Mandarin, Okada, Eleven Madison, Jean George, Le Bernadin, Gilt...) and this was by far the best meal and experience and that is a pretty high bar of competing establishments. Wouldn't have changed a thing.

Without a doubt, the most expensive meal I have ever had - but before you run away, here is our story...\n\nCame here with my best friend and his wife (a definite fine dining aficionado) as one of our \"last hurrah\" outings before kids... hence my wife was about 3 months pregnant and still nauseous most of the time. HINT - rich food and morning sickness are not compatible, hence I ended up eating BOTH prix fixe dinners (poor wife could only manage some table bread and a little of the sorbet that they served between courses while the friend's wife was moaning in ecstasy with every bite of foie gras).\n\nAnyhow, there are plenty of reviews here to vouch for the food, the service, the atmosphere, the experience - and they are all spot on. Just wanted to share our story. Will definitely plan on taking the wife back there for one of our anniversaries.

My sister invited me to CLT to come celebrate my nephew's 2nd birthday. This is apparently his favorite restaurant, so I decided to make the trek from MEM to come see family and friends. \n\nOne thing I would like to note is with all of the construction going on, it is a pain in the ass to enter/exit. Make sure you get it right the first time, or it may take another 10 minutes to go around the block.\n\nWe finally made it, and I assume sis made reservations for us, as we got a long table at the bar for 12 or so people. A 2 year olds birthday at the bar- that's what I am talking about!\n\nThe d\u00e9cor was simple, yet colorful. The menu was straightforward Mexican. I ordered some Texas (shrimp chicken steak) fajitas. Mind you I was pretty hungry.\n\nThe food ending up coming out and the one thing I couldn't help but notice was how big all of the plates were. And heavy. You could do 10 reps with a plate and call it a workout. \n\nTwo other things I noticed off the bat- where was the cheese, and how am I supposed to make only 3 fajitas with a plate this big? I tried to venture outside of my normal fajita eating habits (just meat, with lots of cheese). It was solid! The grease replaced the cheese I guess you could say. After I packed 3, I just ate the rest of it off the skillet. \n\nWhile I was eating and the staff was checking on us, the waitress kept rubbing on my shoulders and such. I was about to tell her you can take me out back but I am with my family. At that moment, I felt like \"Gator\" in \"The Other Guys\". Awkward? Slightly...\n\nI didn't drink anything alcoholic (saved it for after), but they did have a full bar. The do sell Coke as well (yea!)- so that was a plus. I can't even remember if I had dessert either. \n\nThis is some solid authentic Mexican here, and it's definitely different than what I am used to having. Worth a shot!

For the prices we paid to stay here two nights, (over $200 total) I expected a nice room with a fair view. When I ordered the tower king rooms, I did NOT expect to only be on the fifth floor and only get to see the very top of the below building. Nor did I expect them to place us in an area undergoing construction! We should have at least gotten a discount for putting up with that!\n\nPlus, when we checked in, there was a HUGE line that took forever to get through. \n\nOur room amenities were limited to a very small bottle of lotion, a miniscule amount of shampoo+conditioner in one, and one lego-sized cube of soap. The alarm on the clock didn't work, and there were chips of paint missing all over the toilet seat. Plus, the bath drain would get clogged and fill up during a shower. \n\nThe hotel itself had tons of entertainment opportunities, such as the adventuredome, casino, arcade, carnival-area, and pool. \nBut the staff in the carnival area were rude, and one even told us we weren't allowed to sit in the lounge chairs. Like, wtf?!? Then what are the effing chairs for?!?\nFurthermore, the pool is only open from 9 AM to 5 PM, so you can't use the hot tub at night. We were tempted to sneak into another hotel's pool area because we missed the cutoff - but we didn't.\nAlso, you have to pay for internet here, which is the pits. I can deal with 2 or even 5 dollars a day, but it's $11-something here! That's ridiculous! I brought my laptop, but we didn't end up using it at all because of that insane price.\n\nThe hotel will advertise that it's on a prime part of the strip, but actually it's on the very South edge. Non-in-shape people, like myself, will probably have to pay for other modes of transportation to get to the REAL prime points farther down the strip.\n\nOn the good side, our bathroom was pretty large, and the hair dryer actually worked. \nAlso, the buffet here is rockin', in my opinion. And I love love love the crazy decorations and lights surrounding the outside.\nThere's also a free, but very minimal, circus show that starts at 11 AM everyday. However, from what I could tell, it was only a few acrobat routines and that was it.\nOn the morning we checked out, there was this really funny clown paid to pretend to be really sleepy in the lobby. I posted a couple pictures - I thought that was a riot. Definitely a great comedic addition.\n\nAnyway, I could have paid a quarter of the price at that gross Travel Suites neighboring Circus Circus, and not have gotten even half the hassles we had to deal with here. I also heard Luxor had been doing a $70 dollars a night deal, which I should have gone for considering they're so much more elegant of a hotel.\n\nWell, I lived and learned. Circus Circus is not worth it. Though I know it could have been a lot worse.

So good! Driving around Phoenix on a Saturday night looking for Italian, checking yelp, and we find Aiello's - what a treat!\n\nCozy ambiance, enticing aromas greet you as you walk in the door. Smells the way I want an Italian restaurant to small - warm, slightly tomatoey, garlicky - welcoming :0)\n\nWe were quickly seated though the place was crowded. Warm breads and spicy dipping peppers brought to table with drinks.....mmmmmmm.\n\nService was friendly and knowledgeable - owner Joe stopped by to check in\n- was visible in the dining room throughout our visit - nice wine list - my medium red was smooth and fruity - entrees plentiful and prepared as you order them....this is not The Olive Garden! We were happy with both our choices and hope to return!! \n\nWine, salad and entree for me was $30- excellent value for service and experience!!! Big recommendation for Aiello's !!!!!

Man. This place was so disappointing. I was trying to think of a place to eat breakfast this morning, and this place popped into my head. I don't know why, I think I had heard of it from someone, but anyway, we were in the neighborhood so we went. \n\nThat was the mistake. \n\nWe waited outside for about 20 minutes, which wasn't so bad, considering this place was on tv and whatnot. We got seated over by the wall... really close to the people next to us. The place was loud and the person sitting next to me was yelling the whole time... did not stop. We were basically sitting at the same table as this person so that was annoying. Not the restaurant's fault though. \n\nSo I ordered the chicken and waffles at the waiter's recommendation and the BF ordered pancakes and bacon. We both ordered coffee (2.25 for a cup of drip coffee?!?!?! how do they charge so much?). The coffee wasn't terrible, not great, but not bad, kind of metallic, also we didn't get a second refill on the coffee... cups stood empty. The waiter brought out a tiny thing of half and half but never refilled it (the coffee was much worse without cream). Our food came quickly. The chicken was a fried breast on top of a thin waffle. The chicken actually had decent flavor, but the waffle was completely tasteless, soggy, and detracted from the overall flavor of the food... useless calories. So my food was not terrible... but not good by any means, and for 9$, it should have been good. The real reason for the one star was the BF's pancakes. WTF. These pancakes were terrible. They had no flavor and they were dry as could be. These pancakes were not as good as bisquick at home. They were not as good as the pancakes at mcdonalds. They were not as good as those frozen pancakes that you microwave. How did they make pancakes so bad? At a popular breakfast place no less. In addition, the syrup was in a squeeze bottle on the table... not heated up or anything. The syrup was flavorless as well... mrs. butterworth's is better. So gross. And the bacon (4$), was so small. 3 wimpy soggy slices that were not at all crispy. Then I got the bill. 25$. Wow. This place has some nerve charging that much for this poor excuse of a breakfast. \n\nNever again, I would go get a frozen breakfast from the grocery store before I would come get food here again.

I've often popped in here for coffee at the weekend as it tends to be a bit quieter than the rest of George Street. It is a stunning building and correct me if I'm wrong, a former bank? Anyway I've never been for dinner (yet) but the menu always looks tempting.\n\nLast night a small posse of us trooped in for hot chocolate. It won't be the cheapest hot chocolate in town but it is bloody awesome. A cup full of melted chocolate with milk on the side - I went hardcore and passed on the milk. It was fantastic - pure, lush, melted chocolatey goodness and just the treat on a blowy Edinburgh night. Centotre even made us fresh cupcakes incase we wanted some sweet treats (did you think we would say no?!) and even made a GF option which looked exactly the same as the other girls cakes.\n\nSo, fab hot chocolate and after this, I really want to go back and have dinner now, with maybe a wee hot chocolate to round off the meal...

Loved the family atmosphere and home cooked food. The owners moved from NY to Las Vegas years ago and brought their yummy Italian recipes with them. The lasagna, pizza, and pre-packaged tiramisu were great. Only a short drive from the strip and well worth the cheaper home cooked food.

I've been a repeat customer since my first visit here--late night post-drinking eats--and have yet to be disappointed after each visit (lunch, dinner, more post-drinking meals). I was definitely surprised when my boyfriend took me here (instead of Firefly), and I realized what I'd been missing out on for quite some time. \n\nWith the exception of anything extremely spicy (definitely can't handle that with my sensitive stomach), I've enjoyed quite a bit of the menu. I've had the following: \n\nMango Tofu - Iused to order this a lot until I realized what I was missing when it came to eating BEEF. Still a pretty tasty alternative, and large enough portions that if you eat this alone, you could probably still manage to take some home \n\nLemongrass Chicken - Pretty tasty and one of my favorites. The first time I had this dish, I almost finished it all by myself. Lol.\n\nTeriyaki Chicken - delicious\n\nThai BBQ Pork Spareribs - I snatched one of these from a friend's plate and he almost bit my fingers off. Haha. He, on the other hand, demolished the rest of the ribs and seriously kept gnawing at the rest of the meat on the bone, cherishing every bite.\n\nBeef Rendang - Tender, full of flavor, and another favorite dish that I've had from time to time. I can't say that I've been disappointed whenever I've eaten this dish. Even though it's marked as spicy on the menu, we were able to have the spice level taken down, thankfully. \n\nYakitori Chicken Satay - I generally tend to get an order of these each time that I eat here. The chicken is tender, but I really like the dipping sauce a lot more, in addition to the accompaniments--cucumber and onion.\n\nBlack Pepper Beef - I also like this dish. Yes, I seem to like a lot of meat dishes, but with pepper and beef, I figured you couldn't really go wrong. \n\nBrown Rice - standard brown rice\n\nCoconut Rice - Pretty yummy, although I don't really eat rice. It's different, though--sweet, but still rice.\n\nThai Sticky Rice - This is another dish that I have tried, but is an acquired taste, as I am not really partial to rice.\n\nVegetable Spring Roll - Another basic staple that I order when I eat here. Even though it's your standard fresh roll, the sauce is delicious, and the freshness is hard to beat.\n\nHar Gow - what you would typically find when going out for dim sum\n\nPad See Ew - LOVE this dish. Noodles, eggs, broccoli, soy sauce = yummy. I tend to just grab a tiny bit of this, but usually end up eating half, if not 3/4 of the entire dish. Lol.\n\nHouse Fried Rice - This is one of the few rice dishes that I will willingly eat, especially with some extra Garlic. YUM.\n\nThai Garlic Chicken - Chicken breast with garlic upon garlic? Obviously I am a fan. \n\nHainan Chicken - I like this as a healthy alternative, mainly because this is steamed. I also think that the sesame soy sauce helps bring out the tenderness of the chicken, as well as the full flavor. Be prepared, though, that this is a HUGE dish.\n\nThai Garlic Beef - Beef, garlic sauce, and garlic? Again, a fan of this dish. \n\nMango Sticky Rice - my boyfriend's definitely a fan of this dessert, as he loves rice, sweets, and mango.\n\nDelicious, delicious, delicious. I can't help but talk about how much of this menu I love.\n\nIn addition, the service is great (I've eaten with larger parties of 10 to smaller parties of 2) and they're quite attentive, friendly, and helpful when it comes to suggestions and refills.\n\nMy only problem is that the lot gets packed at night, so plan accordingly (the plaza shares a parking lot with Firefly, Ruth's Chris, and other restaurants/businesses.\n\nI will say, though, that I've enjoyed coming here--whether to grab a bite after going out, enjoying a quick lunch, sitting on the patio and listening to the DJ spin or even just sitting indoors and enjoying the company of friends/family/my significant other--despite the reason.\n\nCan't wait to come back...

I've eaten here 5 times and the service has been friendly and prompt. Food is consistently good at breakfast. This is my first lunch meal. Also good but I think breakfast is better. (Hence the name!). Strongly recommended!

I've been going to the Golden Gate for years now for their amazing shrimp cocktails. It's been some time since my last visit and in that time they've renovated and added a whole new bank of rooms. Last night we were on Fremont for the Yelp Night of the Living Neon party and part of our passport was that if we took a tour of the new rooms we would receive a $25 match play. We entered the casino and our group was congregated around a slot machine that a friend of ours was playing. A casino host walked up and I figured for sure he was going to ask us to disperse. Boy was I wrong! He came up got us set up with players card and free shrimp cocktails in the new restaurant. For those of you that don't know there used to be a deli at the back of the casino that has now been removed and replaced by Du-Pars. Even beyond that he gave us each his card and said that when we return in the future to give him a call personally and that he can get us set up with whatever we need and want. Denise the gal that set us up with our players cards was extremely patient and amazing! \n\nDu-Pars was awesome our server was great, the shrimp cocktails are still the same great \"all killer no filler\" versions and I enjoyed the most amazing piece of strawberry cream cheese pie. Talk about OM NOM NOM's!\n\nNow on to the tour, we walk down to the new hotel check in (which was gorgeous by the way) and wait to be set up. As we're waiting Mr. Steven (the awesome host) came and gave us our match play tokens and waited with us before the tour. To our surprise we were given our tour by the President of Golden Gate hotel. NEVER in my years of visiting/living in vegas have i EVER met someone of that caliber. It was awesome! He gave us a 5 star tour and answered every question we had. He even went so far as to ask us our opinions and received them graciously. \n\nThe new rooms are gorgeous and totally worth the money, I will be keeping Golden Gate in mind for future stays on Fremont. The new renovations and decor is on point and the hotel/casino still has that vintage Vegas feel which i'm completely in love with. Great job Golden Gate for bringing your property into the modern day while not losing your roots!

I came here for Saturday morning breakfast. It was pretty busy but we were seated immediately.\n\nThe place is covered in New Orleans Soul decor which was very cool but the seating was very cramped.\n\nThe menu was very extensive which lots of omelette options.\nI chose the Mardi Gras Omelette sticking to the theme, the wife had the Chicken Fried Steak breajfast & the kid had Eggs & Fruit. Each breakfast came with choice of juice & bread. I had the Buttermilk spice muffin which was excellent.\n\nThe kids food came out and he finished it before we heard anything from the waitress who said she was gonna check on it. 5 minutes later it was served and it was COLD!!!\n\nHaving waited 30-4 0 minutes already it didn't take much to turn this situation worse. My wife politley explained to the waitress it was COLD & she would like it done over. NO problem the waitress apologized.\n\n10 minutes later after everyone had finished the CFS re-emerged. this time HOT but lacking any gravy. After that was fixed the check appeared and SHIT HIT THE FAN!!\n\n2 CFS @ $9.99 EACH - We were charged for sending it back!!!\n\nNeedless to say after a few words with the MGMT the charges were reversed but we will NOT be returning. Not very good customer service at all.

Most fans of Indian cuisine like the aromatic fragrance of the spices, so walking in the front door and being greeted with an overpowering incense burning - strike one.\n\nThe visible grease that coagulated on the top of the mushroom curry AND the chicken tikka masala - strike two\n\nThe flat, obviously frozen at some point naan - strike three.\n\nI'm sorry, but even though the actual flavors resembled something good, at noon on a Friday the food should not be this gross. \n\nI still can't get over the fact that the only Indian place remotely close to uptown charlotte worth it's beans is Copper - and frankly, I don't think that place is all that either.\n\nWhere's the originality? Where's the commitment to fresh ingredients? The fact this place is still in business only begs the Charlotte restauranteurs to open a decent Indian place uptown.

Of course in Las Vegas you have your choice of wonderful food. It's rare to have a below average meal here. \n\nBOA and Craftsteak really stand out in Vegas as far as Steakhouses go. My experience at BOA was extraordinary. The hostess sat us on the balcony overlooking the strip, including the Bellagio Fountains- we had the best seat on the strip for that show while sipping the most amazing cocktail I have EVER had. Their signature cocktail has won awards and understandably so. The ingredients may sounds strange- namely the balsamic vinegar, but they work so well together I could have had 6 of them (and almost did)!\n\nTheir table side Caesar Salad is phenomenal as well. Of course their Steaks are great, but what really sets them apart is the small things, like the salad and their cocktails. I'll be sure to visit BOA again. Absolutely wonderful.

I'm writing this at the bar at BRI. I just finished the stacked enchilada. So very good!! It was pretty spicy but not in an overwhelming way. Super tasty!! \n\nThe other night I had the Spanglish sandwich. That was another huge winner!! \n\nThe beer selection is pretty good too!\n\nYou should check this spot out!

I do get my nails done here and there.. when I feel like it. However, this is the ONLY place i have been where the have the newest up to date acrylics: shimmer-sparkles- AND colors OH MY! to choose from. I recently moved and still keep in contact to say hello with my girl. SHE MADE MY NAILS LOOK LIKE SHINY JEWELS!!! The Price is fair for the precise and neat work that is done. Around $35/40 (new) depending. I usually would get a shimmer acrylic on the tips then would fill later. No second thoughts.. if you walk in its worth the wait. :) I have recommended MANY friends here. Nails would never pop off, i would ask to soak or drill down to take off.

When I walked into the hotel and they couldn't find my reservation I should have taken that as a sign to find another hotel, however given I am traveling across country with two cats and the Crestwood is \"pet friendly\" and it's a holiday weekend in Las Vegas then I decided to stick with my reservation. That was a big mistake...\n\nOn the plus side and the reason for one star vice zero (besides the fact you can't actually give zero stars): The front desk staff was very friendly as were the maintenance staff that had to be called once going into our room and finding out the toilet doesn't flush properly. The toilet eventually flushes, though it needs some prodding and patience. \n\nNow for the negative: The chain's flier says \"Always clean and friendly,\" but methinks not. The hallways smell of old cigarettes, the toilet was dirty (perhaps because it doesn't flush properly) and the room actually has cockroaches. I realize cockroaches are everywhere, but really? They are charging me a $50 pet cleaning fee for one night. I feel like they should pay me a fee to watch their cockroaches. We did check for bedbugs and see no obvious signs. Hopefully in the morning there will be no marks they are actually here given we've made it across country through multiple budget hotels without picking any up.\n\nYou do get what you pay for, so I made the mistake of paying for this roach infested motel. Please don't make the same mistake.

Food was just ok. The eggplant I found really good. But when asking questions about the menu, the server didnt know how to help at all. She barely spoke english and was confused when asking if we could get beef instead of chicken with ramen. She then suggested beef noodles. It didnt have ramen though, we didnt know that. My friend didnt really like its texture that much. \n\nWe ordered a soju alcoholic drink. It was good but when we ordered another one, the server came back 15 minutes later and said that the manager made the last drink, she didnt know how to make it and she wasnt sure if the manager was coming back. \n\nI did like the hot pot, i thought it was spicy and adding extra toppings werent expensive\n\nWe ordreed a side of beef tongue which we were pretty sure it had a bad smell.\n\nAlthough I thought the hot pot was good, I probably will be very hesitant to come back because of all the other entrees and the restaurant's service.

Although the original work was good, I have had a great deal of difficulty getting warranty work completed by Treeline. If you want a professional, on schedule, and customer first landscape company you should look at another company. Very frustrating how much I have had to follow-up to get original job completed and my warranty work is still not completed 5 months after I contacted them.

I'm torn between shouting from the rooftops about how much I love Arrivederci's happy hour and keeping it as my own little secret so it doesn't become overcrowded. Well . . . here it goes, fingers crossed!\n\nWe had been here for dinner a few times and were very pleased, we decided we needed to try their happy hour. I'm so glad we did; this is one of my new favorite quiet happy hour spots. Not quite as trendy as Va Bene, but that's a good thing. Less of a singles scene, less noisy and the food is just as delicious! Happy hour is M-F 5-7.\n\nWe walked in a few minutes after 5 and were greeted by a very friendly bartender. He kindly brought us menus and explained that during happy hour all wines by the glass are $5. Wonderful!! He brought us some water (with a slice of cucumber, nice touch), took our drink orders, and gave us a few minutes to decide on food.\n\nIn addition to the wine specials, there are happy hour food specials! Half off bruschetta, pizza, and other appetizers. We went with the Calamari In Umido (large tube calamari saut\u00e9ed in white wine & clam broth with a touch of tomato) and the Margherita pizza. They make their own mozzarella here, people!!\n\nBefore we received the appetizers, the bartender gave us some fresh bread with oil and balsamic to snack on. The calamari came out first and it was fabulous, as was using the free bread to sop up the amazing broth! Then came the pizza and while it didn't blow me away, it was still very good and that mozzarella is so creamy and fresh! \n\nAs embarrassed as I am to admit it, we got three rounds of that yummy bread to use for that delicious broth of the calamari. The best part, the bartender didn't seem to mind a bit that we were being a little greedy with the free bread! What a nice guy! Did I mention the bread and broth were delicious?\n\nThe bar area is nice with a small-ish size bar and a few high-top tables. My favorite part was the living room set up past the bar. Some comfy couches and a projection screen. I can't wait to plan a friendly group happy hour so we can lounge around on the couches drinking wine and snacking on appetizers.\n\nThe service was great, the food was great, the price was right, and the atmosphere is cool and cozy. What more can a girl ask for? A couple more times like this, and this is a five star rating . . . easy!

It was one of the first nice weekends in Montreal and we had heard that there were some nice rooftop restaurants open for brunch. We arrived and sat down and were quickly surprised to find that they were not offering brunch, only lunch. The sign in the elevator said brunch was offered from 11 to 3:30 but that was apparently just for the restaurant downstairs. I'm honestly not sure if that's true. We decided to eat anyway because we were starving.\n\nWe got some drinks and ordered an appetizer. The appetizer was excellent, but that was the only positive point of the meal other than the weather and the view. I ordered a veggie burger and it tasted / looked like a cheap patty that came out of a frozen package. \n\nAfter we ate we then proceeded to wait for what must have been at least a half hour before our bills came. The place was filling up and our waiter looked busy but unfortunately we were tucked away in a corner that was essentially forgotten about. The waiter was apologetic when he finally did return which was appreciated. Overall I would definitely not return as the food was below average and the service was pretty poor.

Do you enjoy gyros? I do. I have enjoyed them since I was a boy in the Chicago suburbs. After eating my first gyro from Mad Pita Express, I told my fiance that it was the best that I had ever tasted! The meat is tender, and delicious. The cucumber sauce, tomatos, and herbs are fresh and good. The Pita is puffy and soft. \n\nMy second time to Mad Pita Express I brought my fiance and she ordered a very good lemon rice soup. Very lemony and tasty! She also enjoyed a piece of fresh baklava which she said was special.\n\n5.00 for the Gyro is a very good price. The soup is 2.99 for a good sized portion. \n\nIt takes a few minutes wait for the food to be prepared. However, the quaint, cozy restaurant has interesting decor that my fiance and I enjoyed looking at for several minutes--family pictures, many different plants, and eclectic artwork.\n\nThis is a small, casual, counter-service restaurant. You can dine in or carry-out. We chose to dine in, and our food was brought to us, along with plastic-ware and napkins.

Great bagels, sandwiches, soup, and coffee!\nMy favorites are the veg-out bagel sandwich, the bagel dog on onion, and their sour cream potato salad is so good too.\nIf you like all beef hotdogs, you should try the bagel dog. They wrap bagel around the dog. When they heat it up, the juice soaks into that chewy bagel and it is heaven. Mmm.

Brought my lady to this place for a dinner date. Nothing extravagant but this place is new to me and the location I wasn't familiar with. I researched this place on Yelp and saw all the great reviews it had. 4 stars and over 36 reviews. I knew I had to try something new and this seemed to be it. I came here on a Friday (Yesterday) late night around 9 pm and although not crazy busy, I came for the food and what the hype was based upon the reviews. \n\nI had a server named Miranda which was great! She was very polite came around enough but not too much to make it inconvenient. \n\nWhy this place was absolutely phenomenal. \n1. Excellent customer service\n2. AMAZING food. The chips are inexpensive and it is a large amount. Chips are one of the best chips I have had in a long time. \n3. Great prices on the beers and liquor. I asked for a gummy bear and they made one of the best ones I have tasted in a while. \n\nOverall, this place is not close to me at all; however I raved to my friends about it and there was not one thing that I didn't love about it. I am definitely going to this sports bar again and soon. \n\nBig Guy's just became in my first visit alone one of my top 5 bars to go to for food and drinks. \n\n\nOh and lastly, I'm sure this place gets packed for sports because they have an open floor plan and DOZENS of flat screen TV's. \n\nIf it wasn't for Yelp and for the reviews this place received I would have never known about this awesome place!

Two words: Happy Hour.\n\nQuite the scene, Sapporo seems to fill up before it opens. The place doesnt open til 4pm and by quarter to 5 there arent any tables or seats at the bar. And thats where you want to be (the bar area or outside) to have the best view of the North Scottsdale after work crowd. And believe me, its a sight to be seen. Even on off nights Sapporo is a great place to people watch. \n\nDuring happy hour, drinks are half off so you wont feel bad throwing back that $11 martini (or 5) and their HH sushi and appetizer list is extensive. Defintely eat there too because those martinis are stronger than they taste. They have a blended mango one that I adore.\n\nTheir sushi rolls are decent but nothing to write home about, but the calamari is great. I've only done happy hour there and I truely believe thats the way to go, espeically now that I've read the other reviews on people's mediocre dinner experiences.

I was in Vegas for a couple of days and had an afternoon free. Decided to check out Bauman Rare Books...so glad I did!! It was my first time at the store and I was overwhelmed at all that they had there...some amazing items!! I was especially taken by the historical ones, such as The Federalist and The Declaration of Independence (to name a small few). There is something for everyone in this store from Walt Disney to books from the literary greats! You can not help but find something exceptionally interesting in every part of the store. I would've spent even longer there but didn't want to overdue my stay with the very kind woman that was working (forgot her name)...but she was extremely friendly and informative! Whether you want to window show or purchase, the staff seems inviting, friendly, and willing to share background on all the pieces. What a gem of a store...I will be sure to make the store a visit on my next trip to Vegas and highly recommend it to any one that may be in Vegas or visiting!!

Like the previous reviewer, I was very underwhelmed. The waiter went way beyond the typical aloofness of waitstaff in better restaurants -- he was downright rude when he saw that our table was two women only -- neither of whom was drinking. What he doesn't know is we both have backgrounds in the culinary industry and tip, at the very least, 20% for very poor service and up to 50% for outstanding service. Needless to say he got 20%. The crudo was outrageously priced and disappointing. I got the crudo with \"the mixed pickled veggies\". The mixed veggies were only scallions -- one of my least favorite foods. I guess it could be called \"veggies\" (multiple) because there was more than one scallion. The waiter was less than helpful when I asked about the source of the beef because Customshop is known for serving some local and organic foods. The only thing I could find local and organic was the pork and some cheese. The carpaccio was pretty tasty. The entrees were so blah I can't even remember what I had. I will not be going back.

Okay so it's been almost a year since I discovered their breakfast burrito. The first time it was incredible, but I've noticed that each time I go back, it gets a little bit worse.\n\nSeveral times, they've forgotten potatoes or salsa or even cheese in my burrito. It's been poorly or hastily wrapped in such a way that it doesn't even resemble a burrito. Then, when I ask for an extra side of salsa, they give me one of those cups but don't even fill it up all the way. (I'm talking about a spoonful, that's it.)\n\nThere's another problem. The salsa is incredibly inconsistent. I get that it's made fresh or whatever, but sometimes it will be red, and other times orange like they put cream in it. One time it even had an odd consistency and it just looked like tomatoes mixed with twigs.\n\nMore recently, on Easter Sunday I went there for a burrito and they lost my ticket. So as I was sitting there for thirty minutes (literally, I kept track) with countless waiters passing me by without a word, I wondered what was taking so long.\n\nThey finally realized something had happened to it and made it, then said they were going to refund it back to my debit card. I'll admit, I thought that was pretty classy of them... But, it's still over two months later and I never got a refund.\n\nThen another time I wanted to see if anything else was better and tried a cinnamon roll. Not only was it incredibly dry and tasteless, but they used peanut butter frosting. It may just be because I despise peanuts...but I don't know... peanut butter frosting on a cinnamon roll doesn't make much sense to me, even if you're trying to be different.\n\nI don't care for their staff either, who I feel are standoffish. Won't be going back again.

We really like this place. The bartender introduced herself, and shook our hands! We started talking about the beers they had. So we decided to go with there special beer....I can't remember the name of it. But they don't have it all the time. The brew master was present, he introduced himself to us as well, and the hubby and him started talking beer. We tried a sample or 2 of the others, but didn't care for them. As long as they still have the one we were drinking we will be back.\nThe menu looked pretty good, our hearts were set on something else for dinner. But this was a nice change of pace.\nBefore we left, the bartender started telling us about there happy hour....SAY WHAT! $2.00 beer....I'm not talking about Budweiser! Premium beer 20 oz! Yes, you will see a check in tomorrow! lol

Never thought I would be writing a review for a Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. I have worked for them in the past as a supervisor and have worked at several other cafes so I am typically pretty lenient and sympathetic with all baristas in the world.\n\nHaving said that, my girlfriend and I wanted to grab some coffee for the road before checking out from the hotel. They had one girl as an expeditor taking orders to speed up the line. We ordered a reg hazelnut IB and a lg Orchard Peach iced tea. We paid and stepped aside to wait for our drinks. We received two reg sized drinks. No big deal- we let the barista know we had ordered a large iced tea.\n\nConflict resolution at a coffee shop is quite simple. The cost of avoiding an argument and satisfying a customer far outweighs the cost of remaking their order.\n\nHowever, the employee here who decided to give us attitude, state that we had paid for a regular (regardless of the expeditor coming over and letting her know she had took the order for a large), and walked away after giving us back the regular sized tea obviously does not share my views.\n\nSo double and triple check your order when you ring up everyone, cus they will NOT fix it for you.

Stopped in here for lunch today with Arlin B., Robyn N. & Mike C. I ordered an Antelope Burger with a salad & fries. The salad & fries were ok but the Antelope Burger was another story. First off, it arrived what I would call rare, when I had ordered it medium. The server lady took it back for a re-do, but the new, improved burger was totally blah. The meat had no flavor! Now this was my first (& last) Antelope Burger, so maybe it's normal for it to be tasteless, but in any event, that's how it was. The service was ok & the place is nice inside, but I have no plans to return.\n\nAntelope Burger & small salad $13, fries extra.

This place was not worth the price. The only reason it gets two stars is because the food was decent and the patio area is nice. They also have a groupon which is a plus. We went on a Saturday night at 9pm. We walked in the door and there was no hostess to greet us. We stood around until we finally got someone's attention. \n\nOnce we were seated we got our water glasses filled quickly but did not see a server for 15 minutes for even a drink order. I found this to be odd as the place was not busy at all. Once the server finally came over we ordered drinks and an appetizer. The calamari. The appetizer came out before 2 beers and 2 glasses of wine. The calamari was fried but very soggy. When served the appetizer, we ordered entrees. We were forced to order something every time the server came over, being that we barely saw the guy. We all ate and we were satisfied with our food. \n\nWe paid the bill and I left a tip based on the service I received. We left the restaurant and the server ran after me (outside of the restaurant) and asked me to leave him a bigger tip. I was appalled. Don't go here. Not even worth the groupon. Service sucks.

Came here for breakfast on the final leg of our Buffet of Buffets marathon. \n\nWow. If I had paid for this place, I would have been pissed. Service was excellent. I adored our server. She asked if we wanted a to-go cup of coffee. No one has ever offered that!\n\nThe juice was clearly from concentrate. The Mexican and Salad sections were closed. What? No Mexican breakfast? Those are the best dishes! \n\nMiddle Eastern included bagels and lox. This was probably my favorite section. I forced fed myself lox with capers to get my money's worth. I liked the mozzarella and tomato salad, but it was something I could find at a supermarket deli. \n\nDessert section looked like it was filled with mini packaged pastries. I selected a chocolate croissant, but it was flaky and dry, so I skipped it. \n\nOn to the American section. There were 2 types of benedicts. They looked good, but I think they became overcooked from the heat lamp. The country style potatoes were good and surprisingly still crispy. I did however, find these potatoes repeated 2 more times. It also seemed like these were the seasoned potatoes you find in the freezer aisle. \n\nThere was an omelet station, that I skipped. And I think a crepe station in the Dessert section. \n\nStopped in the Asian section to get a squirt of sriracha. \n\nI stopped off for a cheese blintz, but never ate it. It was pretty burnt and didn't have much filling. The section also included French toast and pancakes?\n\nThere was a nice oatmeal/cream of wheat section. Then, a fresh fruit section where you could construct your own parfait. 2 yogurt flavors, shredded coconut and granola? 2 smoothie options. They were really plain. I think one was banana, the other, strawberry. \n\nThe final section included spinach and cheese egg scramble, but I didn't see any cheese or spinach. There were potato pancakes. And a turkey hash which had fingerling potatoes (yum) and roasted peppers. I took the time to dig out the pepper and fingerlings. This was one of the only things that didn't seem pre-made. And it was pretty good. \n\nI looked through the photos for lunch and dinner and they all look like a completely different restaurant! I don't know, guess they dropped the ball for breakfast. Kind of a shame for people like me who love breakfast.

There are plenty of restaurants with great food or even better food for a fraction of the price. It's just ok... My shrimp on my salad were so overly salted that they cut my tongue. Scallops were great, steak good too... Just not worth the absurd prices.

Pretty fun place to check out while on the strip. My daughter wanted to go here to meet the polar bear mascot and he didn't disappoint. The costume is top notch and better than your standard character. The top portion is like a puppet and is very animated. They allow you to take your own photos, however, the background is just a green screen. If you go upstairs, you can purchase the photos they take with an artic background added. We bought the package which had two 5x7 photos and a sheet of four smaller sized photos for $35. Employees are all really nice and of course the store had a great variety of Coke themed merchandise. One of the nice \"free\" attractions Vegas has to offer.

This is a decent place to grab a bite to eat. On two occasions the steak was purple in the middle not only did the manager come and comp my meal but replaced it with a free steak which was filet for free and gave me free drinks. I understand when your busy that you try to fly out food as fast as possible and the only problem with that is make sure that the meat is cooked. The manager made up for everything though and the food if prepared correctly is great

This restaurant doesn't exist anymore. It was replaced by another Chinese restaurant and there is no buffet (all-you-can-eat) option.

I had a really wonderful experience here. My waxing specialist was very sweet and the hard wax they use is great. For those of you who don't know what hard wax is, it is a wax that when placed on the skin hardens and they do not use a strip to remove it they are able just to rip the hardened wax off the skin...what this means for you, no sticky gross residue and a quick, sanitary, less painful wax.\n\nBottom line: Its very sanitary, the wax is less painful and gives less ingrown hairs, and they can usually get you in on short notice...plus with all their promotional pricing what's not to like?\n\nI am super fussy when it comes to anything beauty related and I give this place my full endorsement!

Whoa! What a Zombie! Very strong and just what I was looking for.\n\n\nThe place was pretty crowded but the staff were awesome, very accommodating to the group I was with. We we're clearly from out of town and a bit out of our element but the bartenders helped us with our selection. They recommended one of the many extremely strong Tiki drinks.\n\nIt's a tiny, dimly lit joint with a lot of Hawaiian/Polynesian decor including chainsaw carved chairs and stools. Pretty awesome but not comfortable to sit in.\n\nI love how this place wasn't like every other bar that I stopped at. It's quiet, intimate, and full of people that like it that way. I'll return even though its a little off the strip. I've gotta go back for another Zombie!

Made reservation a day ahead for 6/19/2013 pick up and we were there at the pickup place 15 minutes before the scheduled time, the bus never show up (we paid for round-trip ticket- ARIA to/from LAS airport). We tried to call, and the customer service wasn't too helpful. They just told us to wait for the next bus that's at 2pm. There were two other people waiting for the bus for 2 pm, and the bus was late for 20 minutes. I would suggest people don't buy round trip ticket from them because the bus was not on time at all. Waiting outside for more than 1 and half hours was definitely not fun! Words to the company, \"Don't ruin people's plan/vacation! You can't really run airport shuttle if you can't be on time.\" (oh well...maybe you can still run airport shuttle even if you can't be on time...since it only mess up other people's plan and you guys still get $$$$$ :P not cool)

This gym is the worst, and I am so happy to be done with it. \n\nI joined here a few years ago because I got a significant discount from my apartment building. I had previously been a member of Pinnacle on the square and liked it a lot, but the $35 less a month membership was significant enough to make the switch. It was a mistake.\n\nThe gym itself is organized into multiple levels. While cool at first, it makes it really inconvenient, especially for weight lifting. The weight rooms are split between two levels, and each level only contains one of each type of equipment (squat rack, bench, etc). If someone is using the squat rack on the main level, and you need to use it, you have to go downstairs, but often times, that one is being used too. You spend the majority of your workout walking back and forth between the two weight rooms trying to find an open piece of equipment.\n\nAnd that brings me to a major problem with the gym. It's too crowded. The owners don't care how many people they admit to the gym (the more the better in their minds), so if you try to work out during peak time (5 - 8pm), you're going to have a miserable experience. I honestly couldn't get through the majority of my lifting routines because equipment was always taken. I eventually had to start cutting out of work and coming in at 2pm on weekdays, just so I could do a full lifting routine. It's even worse in January, where I kid you not, there isn't one piece of cardio equipment open (this slows down after the New Year, but it's still really unacceptable). \n\nThe front desk staff are all unfriendly and they clearly hate their jobs (I don't blame them). The gym smells awful and is wayyyy too humid (especially in the basement). The rubber flooring in the weight rooms is usually in pieces and rising up from the floor (probably due to the humidity). \n\nThe gym is just a giant mess. Seriously, pay the extra $30 a month and join Pinnacle on the square. Working out requires motivation enough, and having to work out in a miserable environment makes it even more difficult to stay motivated.\n\nI'm very happy to have moved away and leave Capital Fitness.

What has happened to this place? Used to be delicious, but something's changed! Rude host...pointed us to a table (of course the personal cell phone BS going on with a friend was far more important) for a noon lunch, in a nearly empty restaurant. Nor good signs and we should have walked out then. We started with a bland egg roll. Moved on to fair won ton soup. Entrees of cashew chicken and Kung Pao chicken, both on brown rice we're disappointing. Left us both wishing that we had gone for Thai food down the street instead! Save yourself and opt for one of the other fabulous dining experiences in Shadyside!

My new most favorite fabulous clothing boutique. We were heading for cocktails and I got sidetracked by this clothing stores window, had to go in. Game on!! I'm more of an Internet shopper (bebes, Victorias, Boston proper, nordstroms, etc.) but everything I looked at was a must have item and a perfect fit. So, I highly recommend my francescas and give this place 5 stars and 3 snaps in the Z formation. Check it out!!!!

terrible service, food wasn't even decent, prices were average. I think the only type of ethnic food was the Mexican food. and pretty cool that they have their own name beer. was alright.\n\n\nI wish I knew this place sucked so badly before even thinking of coming here.

I used to love h&m until I came to this store. I had just arrive when suddenly the power went out! Some of the other stores were up and running and according to some bystanders the electric company was aware and working on it. So I headed to the neighboring stores in hopes that the power would soon come back up, and it did! I went back inside h&m and the sales people looked mad to be there. I over heard one girl say that other stores that were affected got to go home but they didn't. The attitudes of the employees were terrible. Shortly after, the power goes out AGAIN! This time i stayed outisde the door along with some others but the employees said they were closing for the night. Within two minutes the power went back on and I watched as a lady knocked on the door and the sales girl open the door and yelled that they were closed. Its ok that the power went off, what's not ok is for employees to be rude just because their anxious to leave!

It is so nice to have a frozen yogurt place so close to the house. I can get there and back in less than 5 minutes which makes the frozen yogurt craving at the last minute much easier to deal with. \n\nThe best part of Poppy's is the friendly and professional service. Everyone that I have ever interacted witth there understands what \"hospitality\" is. That is something you do not see in teenagers and young adults these days. \n\nThe only reason that I did not give them a 5 star rating is that they do not have as many flavors as some of the other frozen yogurt places do. HOWEVER, what they do have is fantastic. \n\nThe bigges plus to Poppy's outside of the staff is the heated hot fudge. Wow it is to die for. \n\nThe shop is always clean and I always feel comfortable there. \n\nI have been there on several occassions and will keep coming back, no doubt.

I ordered a special combination and received a free drink. It was a good start. I waited for 20 minutes to receive my sandwich. Frustrated, I inquired about my order. Apparently, a couple of customer after me ordered a set of sandwiches and decides to push my to the back. Not a very good customer service. \nFinally, after 30 minutes I received the sandwich and surprised by the lack of substance in the filling. \nMy first visit sucks! \n\nHowever, I will visit them again to give them another opportunity.

Wow, the seats are amazing. They are very comfortable and I am 6'6\" tall and I do not have to move when I have my legs up; people can still walk by.\n\nGreat selection of beer on draft too.\n\nWay cool place to see a movie. It's a cross between a movie theater and my impression of a movie rooms on MTV Cribs.

Steak TarTar is so good! I'm talking \"Christmas party in my mouth\" good! Quail Egg on top, premium beef, gorgeous sexy. Great new menu lineup with some wonderful additions ( Liz's Penne! Bone-in Ribeye) . \n\nI can't say enough wonderful things about Paul and Liz the new owners. Familiar staff, new staff, it just keeps getting better and better. Everyone will miss the former owners Catherine and Jose Luis, but the restaurant is in good hands with new owners Paul and Liz.

I don't live \"close\" to a Whole Foods (I'm south side Indy-they are north side Indy), but I go when I need some quinoa or to grab some lunch if I am in the area. I needed some quinoa, was driving by, so I stopped, even though I am not from Madison. With the Yelp check in you get a free small bag. .They were out of the small, so I got the next size up. Yay! I would have even paid the $.20 difference. Yay for good customer service!!!

I prefer Costa Coffee, so much richer than Starbucks and I like the fact that they do pay UK Tax as opposed to the dodgy Starbucks! But alas, I do not like any of their Cakes, they have stopped doing everything I like, so its a tin of ground Coffee to take home and probably Starbucks next time...

i will never go back to this place! terrible service!!! here is what got me; we ordered a 2nd round 10 min. before happy hour was to end only to have the lazy and terrible server come over and asked if we wanted another round. we politely reminded him that we ordered the round prior for the happy hour special. he slowly brought us our drink and when we got our bill... guess what? we were not charged the correct price. he used the excuse that the computer did it and that he couldn't change it. we again reminded him that if he had brought us our drinks in a timely manor the computer would not have charged us more. he then said he'd buy us one of the glasses. what a jerk! please it isn't coming out of your pocket, do your job correctly! so here is my take, this place is a copy cat of many others. go to the places with great service and spend your money there. don't waist your time here with these rude people!

We saw a Groupon for TI and decided to skip the groupon and to just pay for the room. There's a reason it's so cheap. We got in, and it all seemed okay...until we went to go to bed. As soon as we turn the covers down, there's blood all over the sheets. This was at about 11:45pm. My husband calls down to the desk and, very nicely, asks if someone can come up and change our sheets because we'd like to go to bed and there is blood on them. Instead of them just saying yes, they ask him a million questions first. So they finally send someone from housekeeping up... Over an HOUR later. She knocks on the door at 1am, and while she is changing the sheets her walkie-talkie is on very loud and they were screaming and talking obnoxiously over it. Thankfully she turned it down after a few minutes. After that, I was very uneasy about sleeping in the bed. Bottom line: there are plenty other hotels to stay at, I wouldn't recommend this one.

I love this place! Yum, yum, yum! Salsa: yum, Chips: yum. I had two cheese enchiladas, 1 red, 1 green - with rice. I loved every bit of it. Plus, had a sopailla for the first time. It was delicious. A+. Good find Vaughn.

After TCC Family Hair Care on 19th and Northern closed for good I was faced with the daunting task of finding another place to get my haircut that is halfway decent and not overly expensive. After prodding around on Yelp.com for a place that has been reviewed (not negatively) and and isn't too expensive, I found Joe's Barber Shop. And I have to say, I am glad I did. \n\nThis place bills itself as a \"European barbershop\", but I am not actually sure what that means so I have no idea if it is an accurate description or not. But clearly Joe and his wife Alla are from somewhere in Eastern Europe and so are the other gals that were working there when I stopped in on a Wednesday morning to get a haircut. The chairs there are big and comfortable and there was a nice TV on and plenty of seating for other folks. It had a welcoming vibe I would say. Much more so than a SuperCuts or other franchise family salons. It was also clean and looked like a business that was well taken care of with good equipment. I was glad to see this.\n\nThe haircut was great. The gal who helped me (can't remember her name) did a really good job and really took her time with me. She gave me a nice razor shave on my neckline and a great cut overall. I was super happy. It was $12.00 + plus tip and I got a nice 30 minute haircut, which was meticulous and one of the best cuts I've had in years. I was almost mad upon leaving when I realized that I wasn't getting nearly the time or the cut at other places I had been to around my neighborhood. \n\nBottom line: \n\nJoe's is great overall. They gave me an exceptional cut at a great price and I left the place thinking \"I am definitely coming back again\". Maybe I will do so earlier than I am used to as I feel like I can get good service and it makes me want to come back sooner to keep my hair looking neat and trim.\n\n...and I don't EVER rush to come out of pocket for anything, so that's saying a lot.
