Dear Lord...who has been reviewing this place? Went there for their \"quote unquote\" BEST CRAB....more like crap. They are small legs of crab, cut in half, as dry as jerky and there was something gritty on them. SERIOUSLY? Place is nice enough looking - service was personable, but the food was not worth the price of admission. I worry that this restaurant YELPING is fixed.

Wow, Daren says this place has the best orange chicken and I don't know if I could find him to be MORE WRONG. No offense to Daren, he's a good guy with good reviews but this chicken was terrible. It looked and had the texture of calamari - NOT chicken. The sauce they drown the things in was excellent but the texture of the chicken was disgusting. I couldn't possibly ever go back here simply because of that. I'll stick with China Chili's orange chicken, thank you.

DO NOT GO. I had the worst experience ever!!!!! Sushi was terrible. It was so dry and did not have any flavor at all. We told the waitress we were not going to eat the food because it looked and tasted bad. The sushi chef comes out, finds out about the situation and goes \"What the fuck!!!!!.\" He kept asking us why we couldn't eat the sushi and did not take \"Because it tastes terrible\" as an answer. After we were done paying, the same chef followed us all the way to the door and started yelling in his own language and started throwing salt all around us. I know in some Asian countries they use salt for purification purpose, and therefore by throwing the salt around us he was treating us as \"bad luck.\" I would be surprised if he still works there because no one would want to hire such a rude crazy chef like him.

-I ordered a whole milk latte.-New Lux is what some argue is a 3rd wave coffee shop. That's code for \"we are a restaurant that serves coffee\". And it shows, just as it has in every shop I've been to that tried it.Coffee: The roasting method is half science and half magic. It's like the creationism of roasting. You stop roasting when it feels right. This causes quite a bit of variation from one visit to another.Baristas:The staff here are as cool as any of your friendly neighborhood hipsters. They usually remember my name and they do enough volume in a shift to get good and practiced making latte art. The grind is pre-ground which oxidizes the coffee before it is brewed.The tamp appears to vary by the body weight of the barista.The pull seems weird with a bunch of gauges that seem placed there for show as none of the staff seem to pay any attention to the contraption. Milk steaming here is near perfection, with fancy pants latte art and proper cappuccinos. Tasting:The temperature of the coffee is perfect, as this is a component mainly of milk steaming skills.The pull today however, was far to the bitter side making my latte taste more like an IPA than a sweetly balanced coffee.The staff is more than friendly and when the drinks are delivered they call out your name and drink. It's presented in proper china and with efficient but respectful flair. Shop: I love people watching here, somehow this is the go to place for scenesters and the beautiful people of Phoenix. It's like that club you go to that only lets models in. New Lux suffers from some of the same problems as Old Lux; seating is akin to taking up residence in a sardine can (but there is a lot more of it now!). The baristas are either hard of hearing or just prefer that no one can talk over the music, I usually just put my headphones in as earplugs so I can think.Their internet is still free and is vastly superior to the wifi they had at the old Lux. The drink prices are fair and what you'd expect at any specialty coffee shop, the pastries can get a little expensive. Credit cards are welcomed and the loyalty card gets every 11th coffee for free.Jeff is much more focused on the bar at this public house, which I'd recommend Lux for far more than for coffee.

Food was fresh enough, but couldn't find a trace of actual flavor anywhere... Highlight of the meal was the Coke, with the egg drop soup coming in 2nd place... And that was only after I doctored it up a bit. Hubby had hot & sour soup, a double lie. Potstickers were huge & cooked perfect, but no flavor to them nor in the dipping sauce (tasted like watered down soy only). Hubby's General Tso's Chicken was very bland, and the chicken was very dry. My Chicken Chow Mein (soft noodles) was also very bland, but at least the chicken was moist. I boxed mine to take home for doctoring up, but his food was left behind to be tossed out. All in all, a very disappointing experience.

When is the last time Emeril has taken a look at what's happening at this place? We were greeted by an apathetic hostess and guided to a dirty couch area. We ordered drinks and realized there was an area of regular dining tables we asked to be reseated in that area. We found our own way there, sat down at a table only to discover the carpet appeared not to have been vacuumed from the day before (we arrived just before noon). Apparently our drinks were to be sent to the new table (drinks in plastic cups!). We waited another ten minutes and no one came to check on us or take our order and our drinks still never arrived. ( All the while there were plenty of empty tables and few patrons in the restaurant so they were far from busy) We did not have a good feeling about the place, wondered how Emeril could think this lives up to his standards (albeit a sports bar.....it there should be a BAM standard!). We left our table, exited through glass doors that were full of fingerprints (obviously not cleaned from the day before). Can't review on the food, but our appetites were gone by the time we left.

I would give Bartender Brian C 5 stars for excellent service and fun entertainment, hower manager Jerry has made this restaurant less than a single star. Me and my girlfriend came here after a concert for some drinks and a late night snack. We got the zinger mountain melt with the special request that we have it half honey mustard and half sweet chilli Thai with a side of both ranch and blue cheese. Now I don't see a problem in this seeing how other restaurants can accommodate our needs but apparently there was and manager Jerry came out to make that clear to our bartender. Feeling bad for our selection of choice I told the manager that Brian was an excellent bar tender and doing a great job, Jerry's response was just eat your food as he walked away. Wow!!! My mind was blown.. I have never been so insulted by a manager at a restaraunt when giving his staff a compliment. Ridiculous. I should have known that if Jerry would treat his own employees like crap, the. It is certain he would treat his guests like that too... I certainly will never be back for their mediocre greasy food and to be told to eat it instead of pay respects to my service. Horrible Manager!!!!!

We went here on a recommendation from several random people we ran into while in Pitt. The pizza was mediocre (crust was plentiful but bland). The service, however, was terrible. It took forever for them to take our order, forever to get our food, and (you guessed it) forever to get our check.I'd pass on this place.

O my goodness gratuitous I am and was incredibly disappointed by the way this place is managed and run. Never have I had such terrible service but what makes it worst is that it was from multiple people (including the manager) WOW!! Only reason this place has 2 stars and not 1 is becasue it is located in a cool hotel. No way no how will not ever stop by at this place again. Incredibly rude and unhelpful people. I was appalled at the way the manager or supervisor lady we spoke to runs this place. We walked by on the weekend of my birthday before heading back to LA around 11:30am on a Sunday and was told by the hostess that they were currently not seating anyone and to check back in about 20 minutes. We tried to ask if we can just sit at a table and have a drink but again she was persistant with more or less the same answer but in a much more rude way. So we took a walk around Mandalay for a bit then upon our return around 12 we were told the same thing. At this point we were a bit frustrated and mad so we asked to speak to their manager. The lady came out and explained to us that they were changing cooks so could not seat anyone. But not only that in a very rude and snarky type of way, almost as if speaking and explainng was painful. We just wanted to sit out by the patio area and have a few drinks and people watch. But apperantly thats way to much to ask for these people. We finally ended up getting a table after somewhat of a heated confrontation from the bitter clueless manager. We had a few drinks and bought a few bread items/pastries from inside but could definitely feel the unpleasent welcome. How difficult is it to say sorry the kitchen is currently closed but if you wish to sit outside and enjoy some drinks go ahead. I mean geez it is freaking VEGAS how can you deny people drinks, she was very clear and did not want to let us sit in the patio table area she said we could sit at the bar but I guess customer service and making money is not exactly their first priority here... If I were the owner or person in charge I would seriously think about training the employees better. I know the hostess was just following directions but one would expect a person such as the female manager/supervisor to be a bit more competent with customer service as apposed to chasing money away. Will definitley tell everyone I know that is going to Vegas (specificly Mandalay Bay) to avoid this place like the plague.

Bought a car from them in October 2011. Was told that the title will be issued in 2-3 weeks but it has not been. They said, they don't have title for my car. Car was paid cash. I needed my title. Left message to sales person, sales manager, ang GM multiple times but no one calls back. When ask to speak to a live person, only one I get is a sales person who is not willing to help as it's out of his experties. Also, they had promised an extra set of key for my car. It took them 2 months, to get the key for me. Pretty much, they all are good to you up until you buy the car and drive off. Once off the lot, you are nothing but an ex-client that they dont care for much. But they don't realize that it's the ex-client that gives referrals and comes back. I would not purhcase here again. Horrible after sale experience.

Not great, mostly due to the service. The upstairs space is mostly a bar, apparently has karaoke in the evenings. I went for lunch, and sat downstairs which was under the balcony, and shady, but kind of dark and claustrophobic. The greeter was a teenage kid who basically grunted at me when I walked in, \"upstairs or down?\" The table was not wiped, and had crusty dried food spots on it. The server was surly, no smile, no thank you. Kind of afraid of the menu that was kind of all over the map, so I got the burger with cheese and bacon. My iced tea took 10 mins to come, and the burger another 15 mins. It was plopped down in front of me with no words, and the server walked away, so I had to get up to ask for condiments. The burger itself came with shredded lettuce and tomato already on it, so you couldn't really disassemble it, but I managed to scrape off the lettuce, which I didn't want. Other than that, not a bad burger, thick and handmade, with a good toasted bun. They had a radio station playing over speakers which was either poorly tuned or not local, as it was very staticky and annoying. As good burgers aren't hard to find in Old Town, I won't be back.

Ever been to a used car lot with aggressive sales people? Prepare for the same thing only you will be blitzed with more expensive wash packages and waxing upgrades every time you drive in. How many times can you say \"no\" to the same things, you will find out.

Very unprofessional and rude employees...I would not recommend coming here unless you want the most expensive car wash, an oil change, and your gas tank filled for $0.20/gallon more than Cobblestone Auto Spa. I politely cancelled my wash (due to the badgering for upgrades and oil change) and the woman did not remove the writing on my window, just wiped two streaks through it and made a few comments under her breath. They then asked me to park my truck across the street while I go inside and pay for the gas they pumped while we were talking, then I was asked to come find her outside and bring her the receipt. Even though this location is close it is far from convenient. ..two thumbs down.

We had a party of 8. Unfortunately this place does not take reservations. We were told our wait would be an hour which is completely acceptable. When the hour and a half mark came and we were still standing it was starting to become a little irritating. We asked how much longer and were were assured it wouldn't be much longer. So another half hour passes and STILL no seats. So finally we tell them we will sit in separate areas and this got us instant seating. It would seem pushing two tables together wouldn't be all that hard, but who am I? Anyway, our waiter was a complete snob and was about as friendly as a wall. Let me also add that we were sitting CLEAR in the back of the restaurant while our friends were outside in the front. Our waiter was now serving BOTH tables. How does this make any sense? So back to our rude waiter...the place is obviously very clickish. The asian man who was the Main guy or whatever was at certain tables delivering food and just chatting them up and laughing and having fun while we didn't even get as much as a nod hello. The waiter, who also had a table behind us talked up about the decadent meals and such. We were given a suggestion but not told how decadent anything was. Guess we don't go there enough and I mean why bother making someones first trip pleasant, right? I had pork belly and it was disgusting. Fatty, cold, and hardly a tapas size portion. My potatoes were cold as well. Maybe I was there on an off night, I don't know. In looking at these other reviews I would have to think maybe, but I won't be giving them another chance.

Such a shame. This is the exact kind of restaurant Im always looking for. Too bad the staff are oblivious to basic customer service. I've never been in, so i asked if I seat myself or wait to be seated. This question really threw the waiter for a loop. He just didn't know how to answer. Because I was carrying my laptop bag- he was more concerned on whether or not a was giving a lecture or something. Very strange... Then I had a seat, but Boone came to my table to take my order. So, I notice the \"order here\" sign. I got up and asked, \"is this where I order?\". They responded, \"wherever....\". It was like pulling teeth to figure out whether I seat myself or wait to be seated, whether a server takes my order or I order at the counter. It shouldn't be so hard to spend $20+ on a lunch and drink- long story short. I just can't support a company with staff that are do co fused and oblivious as to the basic functions of their job or just basic guest service.I've never seen a place run with such confused employees. I mean, who can't day whether its seat yourself or not? Who cannot say whether a server will take your order or whether you order at the counter? Ridiculous.

This shop is a great example of one of those places that you walk past, think \"ooooh that looks like it could be cute, let's go have a look\", get inside and realise it's a big anti-climax.It looks like a vintage jewellery shop from the outside, but when you go in and actually have a look at the stuff, it's just new and not particularly well-made jewellery trying to look vintage. Which ends up just looking a bit tacky.Imagine those tiny little pointless shops that you find in little towns on the coast, that's pretty much this place in a nutshell. Except they've done that really annoying thing of thinking that just because they're in Brunstfield they can hike up their prices.I'm sure that for the right sort of person this shop would be a great find.

I wish I could write a review about how excellent the food was at D'lish but I don't know. The website says they are open Monday through Sunday from 10 - 3; however, when we arrived at 11:10 Sunday, the doors were locked and it was dark inside contrary to the \"Come in. We're open. \" sign on the door. The hours on the door were 10:30 - 3. No big deal.....just a half hour difference from the website but if you call the message on the answering machine informs you that they are open Monday through Friday only. What is it? Are they open on weekends or not? I tried to get the answer by messaging them on the website only to receive an error stating that the message could not go through. I guess they don't want the business with all the inconsistency. What a waste of a Restaurant.com gift certificate!

I'm trying to find a good sushi place that isn't too pricey that I can order delivery from - after Osaka, I will keep looking.I ordered a crunchy scallop roll, spicy salmon roll and a New York roll (tuna and avocado) for delivery - $1 delivery charge and pretty quick (30 min) delivery was great. $25 for 3 rolls - pretty good. But the actual sushi?? Not so much.I don't know what was missing but all the rolls were very bland. I couldn't even really distinguish by taste which was tuna, which was salmon, etc. They all tasted the same - of nothing. The crunch was dried panko on top of the roll - not too tasty. I would say try some other places first if you want that mouth-watering sushi taste that makes you crave it - because it isn't here.

Went with 4 friends, and we shared quite a bit so I got to try most of the menu. The biggest problem across the board was the service. All our questions about the menu were answered with terrible one word answers, so we ended up with many dishes that were nothing like we expected. Best example...when I asked, \"What is the 'Stuffed Guinea Fowl Supreme?\" The first answer I got was, \"It's like a chicken.\" My next question, \"But what is it stuffed with? And what does the 'Supreme' mean?\" The response I got was simply, \"Dates\". That was pretty much how all our conversations with the waitress went. But terrible service aside, the biggest disappointment was the food itself. Nothing was necessarily BAD, but nothing was particularly GOOD or memorable either. They also seem to love their foam machine a little too much. While making cucumber foam, or pea foam is interesting, the textural element was used as more of a novelty than a compliment, as it was used on half the dishes. The meal ended appropriately. When asked, \"What's the 'Death by Chocolate'?\" The waitress responded, \"Mousse\". Turned out it was chilled and closer to ice cream. Overall I would have given the meal itself closer to a 3, maybe even 3.5...but such horrible service is inexcusable. They also did not open our wine until we asked, and they placed the white in a bucket, but with NO ICE! Unbelievable...There are far too many good restaurants in Montreal, especially in this price range to waste your time here. Nice ambiance though, the interior designer gets 5/5.

The best thing that I can say about my stay was that the room & bathroom was clean. The front desk service was horrible outside of their normal check-in / check-out responsibilities. Asking them to call or a cab was a disaster, the Front Desk offered the shuttle service but could only drop me off a half mile from my location. Not being from Pittsburgh and not having an umbrella ruled out a stroll in the rain. The bed was extra firm with a hump in the middle. And my attempt in the morning to iron my dress shirt was an epic fail as the iron burnt an imprint of itself in my shirt. The desk attendant, Tony was sincerely apologetic for my stay.

If there was a possible zero, this place would get it. But, Yelp felt the need that all business deserve pity stars. From upon entering, we're greeted by an Asian fellow with glasses. There were two-three tables open for 10...he reluctantly seated us and was about to put us on a waiting list. If not mentioned, we would have wasted our time. Soup is less than mediocre, broth was bland and constumer service was blatantly disrespectful. We asked multiple times for simple sides like onion, and waiters would not acknowledge our requests. Just to top off the cake, there was curly hair in my #10 soup. The cashier was apologetic, but not by nature. She looked at my wife and I, trying to find out if the hair belong to one of us. The hair was curly and short, possibly armpit hair. For her to stare up and down at us, it was very offensive, we did not plan to eat someone else's pubes. For a restaurant that cries it is the number 1 soup restaurant, they sure treat us like we are the last people to come back.

Don't come here if you have any sort of time constraints. The only reason I'm not giving this place 1 star is because I didn't actually get to taste the food. I came here for lunch knowing that there would probably be a wait. But, I was craving some chicago style pizza, and I had an hour so I thought I'd be fine.I walk in and stare at the 2 workers in the place for 5 minutes. Finally he asks \"Can I help you?\" Something about the way he said it just rubbed me the wrong way. It felt like he thought I was intruding upon his precious time. Granted, the restaurant was pretty full, and they seemed understaffed so I just asked for a table. He told me to \"sit tight\", which I did. I sat tight for at least 15 minutes without anyone paying any more attention to me. An update on time would have been really nice. Even just saying a word to remind me that I hadn't become invisible would have been appreciated. Of course they were too busy running past me to say anything though. After wasting 20 minutes of my lunch break, I gave up and left.Hopefully I can come back and actually try the food. But, the service here is really poor from what I can tell. The pizza better be amazing; otherwise, I don't think I'll be tempted to come back here.

I would strongly advise against using this company. They have given us nothing but trouble over the past few years. They are incapable of managing their own accounting system. Several times they have told us we have not paid. We have provided them with a cashed check receipt showing that they received payment and cashed the check. They are trying to rip people off by double billing them. They are banking on customers not checking their records and then resubmitting payment. Additionally their accounting person is impossible to get in touch with and will take well over a week to respond to requests. Their customer service is horrible and we will never recommend or use them again.

My boyfriend and I have gone to this place several times and really enjoy sitting at the sushi bar. The food is consistently good. The reason for the 2 stars is the poor customer service. We normally order one saki bomber. The menu says $6.50 but when you order, the server offers a large beer without mentioning this \"penny\" beer special so then we are charged 11.50 for the 6.50 menu bomber. We talked to the server twice and nothing was done. If you are going to run a great beer special then offer it to your customers. There are a couple of other sushi restaurants in the area that offer better food along with good customer service and who promote their specials. Not going back to this place again.

A group of us (7) came on a Saturday night and while we expected a wait for food and such because it was a weekend night, the service was much too slow. We had to remind our server to refill our drinks when they stood empty for 10+ minutes because we didn't know where our server went. A few of us ordered the same alcoholic drinks, but they were prepared differently. I don't know what was going at the bar. The food must have taken 30-45 minutes to come out. Overall, a so-so experience.

Maybe my expectations were too high, but a well cooked steak does not need to be drenched in sauces to be eaten. I was highly disappointed in the quality of the steaks offered at Cut. My boyfriend and I ordered the American Wagyu 34oz porterhouse for two. We paid almost 200 for this steak, and after waiting almost 45 minutes since our appetizers were cleared for our entree to come out it was tough and extremely bland. The sides were decent-the typical a la carte menu. The appetizers were pretty good. The bone marrow flan had a delicious garlic flavor, but the crab cake was decent.We were too disappointed to attempt their desserts so we paid the undeserving $400 and left. I would have been more satisfied eating at Grand Lux Cafe than coming to Cut.

AVOID this company. Very slow service. I would give them 0 stars. If you want to get to the airport on time you're better off taking a cab. Must book return trip a day in advance. Not refunded for unused return trip (reason was a nonexistent disclaimer).

The locations is great near Carnegie Mellon where I had a seminar. But the place has a weird undertone. It looks like they ran out of money during a recent renovation. The thermostats are set for several rooms so if your neighbor asks them to turn the heat on you'll have to open all of your windows so as no to boil. The couple who ran it had a big fight in the lobby. Avoid it!

Poor prices to purchase your items. I understand it's a business and they have to make a profit but I would go here as a last resort. I just started selling my clothes and they give the lowest price compared to other places. I wouldn't sell anything designer here. They're looking for cheap but trend forward items that target a youthful forever 21 age group. It is organized but the set up is strange. You leave your items and they tell you what time it will be done. When you return they tell you the total price and which items they plan to purchase. They seems to give about $1-2 dollars for tops and $4-6 for jeans. They are also very picky about what they want.I was not offended by what they decided to buy or not to buy. Nor did the price bother me bc I planned to donate everything regardless but I did notice that I made more at other places. I would recommend coming here after trying sell your clothes at buffalo exchange first.

I had some time to kill and stopped in here on an impulse to try a gel manicure. I've done gel manicures myself at home and love how they last at least two weeks. Since I was treating myself and having them done, I figured I'd go for the french manicure since I'm not that coordinated to do that for myself. I was the only customer in there, until a woman stopped in to have a nail repaired. Having nothing else to do, the rest of the staff sat around and talked and listened to their ipods and played with their phones. The place wasn't very clean and a fine layer of nail dust seemed to coat everything at my nail techs station. She shaped my nails kind of square-ish, which is not really my preference, but they look pretty good. You have to \"cure\" the polish under the UV light for each layer in order to set it. This just takes a minute or two but my nail tech proceeded to use her phone during this time. I find this annoying. I paid $35 plus tip for the french gel manicure, and they charge $30 for a regular gel manicure. My disappointment as I look at my nails one day later, is that there is a chip already. Gel nails aren't supposed to chip and they are supposed to last at least two weeks and just sort of grow out as your nails grow. So what's the deal? I guess I'm better off doing them by myself at home.

I thought this gym was fine while I went to it. I also have a membership at LA Fitness and joined this one because it's closer to my work so I could go during my lunch break. I canceled 5 months ago because the LA Fitness in East Mesa opened and didn't want to pay for both. I went down there with a letter in writing but was told to email. Was still being billed after contacting them. Then I called and was told my membership was canceled over the phone. Am stilling being billed. Now I called and they're telling me I have to go down and do it in writing and fill out a form. WHAT THE HECK! That's what I tried to do months ago!! I don't know if the people who work there are just too imcompetent but now my mom and brother are canceling their memberships and switching also because it just isn't worth the hassle. Now I'm out about $100 because the people working there can't actually tell me how to cancel and when I do what they tell me to do I'm told months later that it's wrong! DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE. NOT WORTH THE HASSLE!! GO TO LA FITNESS INSTEAD!!

Everyone says this club has a crazy long ridiculous line but we got there at 10:45pm and literally stood in line for 5 minutes tops! There's a main entrance to this club, but also a few other smaller entrances that not too many people know about-maybe that's why? Anyways, the ambiance of this place was so-so. The club has 3 floors-smoking is permitted at the bar area of the 1st or 2nd floor. I didn't like the way you had to walk up what looks like emergency stairwells to get from level to level--annoying! I would think that'd be a big liability for the hotel should any drunken people tumble down those insane stairs. Oh and be careful when ordering at the bar, they almost tried to charge me $86.00 for 6 drinks when I only ordered 3 shots and 3 backs! Not very impressed with this place at all.....

1.) Unorganized2.) Workers are rude and unprofessional3.) TOO crowdedWhen I first arrived, the whole thing was totally unorganized! There were so many \"guest list tickets\" given out which made the event overly crowded. The guy who checked my ID also didn't believe the photo was me and had to ask someone else. When the OTHER guy approved immediately, I turned around and saw he did it to several other girls as well... C'mon, are you trying to check them out or give them a hard time on purpose? POOR work ethic dude. Either that or he's just really bad at his job. After getting into the venue, I admit it's pretty big due to the different floors (one star to that), but you won't fully enjoy it if you can't even access to the dance floor because of how crowded it is. Unless you have bottle service, think twice about coming here!

We have ordered Greens and Proteins to go, many times. The food is delicious, the drinks are good *although I question the validity of the nutrition, as the other reviews mention* and it is insanely close to our house which makes it a quick and easy option. The prices are a bit high, but the quality in the food is worth it for a quick bite. They have always messed something up on our order, but they usually fix it with little complaint *although there has been some in the past*. Today, they refused to fix it and we will not return again because of this. We ordered a pizza, burger and two drinks, as normal. They routinely miss the drinks on the order, but usually make them quickly when it is pointed out. Today was a different case; the girls had a horrible attitude, barking that the order did not include drinks. My husband explained that it did, and they finally decided to give us one, but would not give the two that we paid for. I have a call out for a manager to return my call to issue a refund to my card, but with their attitudes, I am not hopeful that I will ever actually receive this call. We were willing to pay the price for the food, but the attitudes and poor customer service are something we can't live with. You just lost a weekly customer - bummer!

This is absolutely not a 4 star hotel like they pretend it is on all the travel sites. Believe me. It's 2 star if anything. The rooms are extremely small and not very clean. I stayed there for 4 nights and the bedding was NOT washed once. They are cheap with the towels (you have to ask the front desk for an extra towel for the pool for example because you only get 1 or 2 towels in general for your room...the whole time). The walls are paper thin, everything looks aged (and not in a quirky way, in an outdated sad way) and the staff seems aggravated constantly. The only good thing about the hotel was the pool but even then that's not saying much at all.I do not recommend this place at all. It's nice to save a buck on travel accommodations but Montreal has many other hotels that are far better than this one.

I am wondering if the people reviewing this place, positively, have had actual authentic Thai food.I got a green curry which had cabbage (wtf) snow peas (wtf) no basil (double wtf). It's green curry which is SO Basic - Eggplant, green bell peppers, carrots and basil. Simple.This, to me, was Chinese food masquerading as Thai. I looked through the reviews...it seems like things are hit or miss. What should one order when they come here, I wonder? So I guess if you want Authentic Thai Food, go elsewhere. If you're suburban and haven't a clue...enjoy?Fail.

RACIST! Against white people or possibly just everyone except black people, I wouldn't go here if I were you, unless you're black and you love terrible food. Asians, Latin-Hispanic, Native, anything else, steer clear!Since I've lived in Vegas I've had problems with finding good food, off the strip, that I don't have to shell out hundreds for. This means that sometimes I go to a chain restaurant, which generally, I prefer not to do.Also, I've never before accused an entire establishment of being racist, nor have I ever asked for any part of my meal to be comped until this visit to Applebee's.If you are of European descent, I wouldn't recommend going here. If you are a college student and your writing a paper on experiencing racism, this may be a good place to do some research, if you're white.AMBIANCE: 2 It's just Applebee's, casually comfortable except for that feeling that if it weren't illegal, you'd be the victim of a hate crime.SERVICE: Sh*t show. I hope the f*ck better than they make food, serve food, bus dishes, and manage restaurants.FOOD: Not sure if this qualifies as food.Let me elaborate. I'm a white, female, only parent, to a half Latin, adorable, little, six year old, girl.On my daughters birthday I brought her to Applebee's b/c my daughter always wanted to have the staff at a restaurant sing to her on her birthday. It was a busy evening in May. I worked all day and was exhausted, so at this point, I was tired, and soft spoken, but totally patient, and reasonably friendly, as you should be to the people who handle your food.A couple came in behind us, with a child. They're African-American. They were seated in the booth directly across from us. Also, all of the staff that we worked with that evening were African-American.Within two minutes of being seated we had decided on our drink and food orders. Our server came to take our drink order and I informed her it was my daughters birthday. Then 15 minutes later she showed back up with drinks. We made our food order and shortly after that the family in the booth across from us were being served their food. We waited for about another 30 minutes and then they brought our food. About this time the family across from us were getting their bill and getting ready to leave. I ordered a steak. It was totally disgusting. It was so greasy my whole plate was like a pool of grease mixed with a little blood. Every time I cut into the steak more grease would come running out. Also, it was strangely seasoned. It was like they took my steak and dipped it in the gutter of the grill, where they sweep all the extra grease and debris off the grill, in between cooking each item. It was too gross to eat. If I would've eaten it, I'm pretty sure I would've needed emergency gall bladder surgery that night.My daughter ordered the grilled cheese. There is not a grilled cheese this child won't eat! Except the one from Applebee's on this particular night. She said it was gross. I told her to just wait to have them sing \"Happy Birthday\" to her, and then we would go. While we were waiting my daughter needed to use the restroom. We went to the restroom and when we got back our table had been completely cleared. The busser was still there. I looked at her. We had even left my daughters backpack at the table so it wouldn't appear as though we'd left. The busser asked if we wanted our food back? No Thank you! Then the waitress brought our check. I told her our food was terrible and we didn't want to pay for it. She checked and came back and said she could only remove the charge for my daughters meal, $5. That still left a $20 balance for my steak and a beer. I told her I didn't mind paying for the beer, after all I did drink it, but that I wasn't going to pay for the food. The manager came over and aksed what he could do. I told him I didn't want to pay for the inedible food I didn't eat. He said he couldn't refund it so I paid the bill and left. I also reminded them that they forgot to sing to my daughter. They asked, after we paid, if we still wanted them to, we both just wanted to leave.I called the restaurant when we got home and told the manager that if he didn't refund my bill I would go to the manager over him and tell them about our experience. He said he would gladly give us a meal credit to come back. I was like \"you're kidding, right?\". He said If I wanted to take the weekend to think about it, we could come back in the next few days and eat free. We passed. He agreed to refund our balance to my debit card, which he NEVER did.Go to Outback Steakhouse, it's just down the street and the service and food are way better.

After about 10 mins I was bored out of mind. The story was a little hard to follow and if youre expecting lots of flying, juggling, the normal Cirque stuff, this is not the show to see.

One size fits all, my husband and I went to Dr. Craig for at least 6 months. I only saw Dr. Craig one time and my husband never even met him! When he put me on Metformin it elevated my liver enzymes, dr. Craig told me Metformin wasn't metabolized through the liver and to stay on it...my primary doctor immediately took me off and informed me metformin is know to elevate liver enzymes. We had other issues with the office not calling back, etc. He may work for some people, but he certainly didn't work for us. We found much better success with another fertility doctor that individualized his plan and helped bring our daughter into this world. We saw Dr. Craig back in 2009, I am hoping his practice and office staff has improved since...but I wouldn't hold my breath as the office seemed to be a infertility sweat shop. With that being said...I did have one friend who had success with Dr. Craig...but several who did not.

Horrible service at bar!!!!! Thought we'd give it a try, after all they won \"world beer\" awards. Saturday afternoon 3:30 very crowded, 2 seats opened up at bar. Bartender set menus down in front of us and walked away no greeting or anything like hi have you been here before etc... We asked for a couple samples again nothing was explained to us. Ordered our beer, then about 10 minutes later had to ask someone else if we could order food. Ordered the burger special, bartender did up sell the fries. Burger was okay, fries so,so if you like rosemary. Half way through dinner our beer was empty. Bartender was right in front of us washing out growlers and never once asked how food was,or if we wanted another beer. We finally caught bartenders attention and she said \"I guess you are ready for your check\" then gave us a line about what a rough transition they had. It doesn't matter if you are a full staff short, the customer should always be greeted and attended to, she could have told us they were short staffed in the beginning, instead of saying nothing and ignoring us. Thankfully there are other breweries in Chandler that offer much better service and food. Definitely don't waste your money or time at Wilderness.

I don't trust them to fix it so I took them elsewhere. WILL NOT BE GOING BACK.

Jos. A Banks is a high end men's formal wear store. Since it's high end, steep prices are expected. What's not expected is how bland the store's collection of clothing is. Men's formal wear shops are fairly generic, with the cut of the cloth and the quality of the material used in the clothing determining the price. As a result, I judge these stores based on the ties they carry. A high-priced suit can come from many places, but the quality of the store hinges on the ties in my opinion.And that's where Jos. A Banks fails. Conservative suits do not require a flat or dull tie in order to maintain their formal nature. On a dark suit or gray suit, a tie can make the outfit, bringing style to what is designed to look like a cookie cutter outfit in business. But the collection of ties at Jos. A. Banks is awful. The colors are drab, the designs on the tie are the same as the ones in the early 1980s and the prices are ridiculous. For a suit, it's a decent place, but stay away from the ties.

Checked in and was happy that I was given 2 free buffets with my stay. I used the free buffet for my wife and I, but I of course had to pay for my 2 kids. Good thing my wife and I were free cause the buffet was an epic fail. I also played a few hands with blackjack, and the dealers have zero personality. I liked the fact that the room started off at $39 for a special I got early, but to add $20 resort fee to each night sucked. I could of stayed elsewhere for $59 instead, with no resort fee. Overall, I would say it is an okay stay, but I think I'll look elsewhere next time around.

The restaurant was empty, but the hostess told us it would be about a 20 minute wait, so we decided to sit at the bar instead. It took at least 15 minutes for anyone to acknowledge that we were there and another 15 minutes for drinks. I flagged the bartender down and asked for dinner menus, which he should've already voluntarily given us. He acted frustrated that I asked and told me I would have to hang on because he was really busy. After another 25 minutes of waiting for a menu, we paid for our drinks and left. We were sitting right in front of the beer taps where they saw us every single time they went to pour a beer. It wasn't like we were off on a distant corner of the bar. I'm a very patient person, but that was all I could handle that night. I will never be visiting this place again.

We came here with a party of 15 people for a birthday. It was a tuesday, so it was almost empty for this GIANT bar with a stage, and the performers were starting to get set up.I was ordering the food from a kind older waitress who was jottings things down on a napkin when I told her that my boyfriend and I were going to be on the same check. \"We don't do that here\".Okay, thats fine. I'll assumed I could take my receipt and his, and just pay for both. I mean, there's no way they were going to lump 25 people on the same bill, right? I mean.. we had like 10 couples and a bunch of kids. I got the food, which was okay, said happy birthday, and wanted to head out after being there for an hour or two. I got my waitress, who seemed a bit over her head, and calmly asked for my bill so I could leave. She gave me a menu and said \"Figure it out for yourself\". What. The. Hell. Figure it out for myself? What was the point of a register? Do I look like an accountant? What are City of Scottsdale taxes here, anyway? Are we on a barter system? Why do I even have to pay anything at this point, if it is some free-for-all where I tell you how much my food was and you maybe/maybe not charge me?! Seriously.I stood there, trying to talked to here, for 10 minutes and she just ignored me. Like in a bad movie, I was standing there, making eye contact, while another person who was supposed to be my server pretended I didn't even exist. Unbelievable. I was so furious, I almost lost it. I calculated it out, even though the cost of the drinks wasn't on the menu, and left. BAH!

I attend Zipps often, however this Zipps on Via De Ventura, was not impressive. I invited a fairly large group of friends to come out Sunday to watch the playoffs. Sitting outside was not an issue since they had TV screens and a lot of tables that were empty. The problem was there were no heaters outside, no wonder it was empty. Now I know this is Arizona, but it gets pretty chilly outside in the winter especially when the area is shaded. Fifteen of my friends left and went elsewhere because it was too cold outside. Dollars out the door if you ask me. I ended up getting a booth inside with a few of us that decided to stay because you can't beat the happy hour prices for food and drinks anywhere else, but I froze my ass off the entire time. My service was good with my first waitress, however when the next one showed up I had to flag her down for drinks as well as for my bill. Now if the place was packed I could totally understand the slow service, however it was a lot less empty then when I first arrived.

Read about this new BBQ place in town on VegasChatter.com so went to check it out for lunch. The pulled pork sandwich was delicious and the best part of our experience here. I would recommend it. I ordered the chili on the side instead of on top of my sandwich. Good call because I didn't like the chili at all. Everything else we ordered was mediocre. Rib tips weren't very tasty. The sides were a disappointment and here's why - melted styrofoam! Gross! I dumped the baked mac and cheese onto my plate to find the styrofoam cup was melted on the inside! That CAN'T be healthy! Same happened with the sweet potato casserole. Hard to judge whether these sides were good because we were grossed out by the melted styrofoam and didn't want to eat it for fear of getting sick. The baked beans also came in a styrofoam cup which didn't melt and tasted just ok. I know this place's roots are from a food truck, but it's time to get rid of the styrofoam! It's literally IN my food AND not earth-friendly. And you don't even need the styrofoam! The sides could be placed directly on the plate. Texas toast would be better if they buttered and seasoned BOTH sides of the bread. Fun to see Kool-Aid on the beverage menu and the smoker right out front! I truly hope they do well and work out the kinks because it has much potential!

The taste was not the same. There was a lot of fat. One time the meat looked weird, maybe overcooked, and I felt ill after eating. I gave the place one more shot and it was still bad. I won't be back until I know the quality is back to what it used to be. :(

I really wanted to like this place as it's right in my hood and serves up some healthy options. After numerous friends recommended we give it a shot, my wife and I decided to check it out for brunch. We sat outside and enjoyed both the vibe, the service, the cocktails, the muffins and fresh jam (the highlight sadly). Unfortunately the main dishes were a huge disappointment. We shared chicken (tofu) and waffles and huevos rancheros and both missed the mark. We had heard chicken and waffles were a must try and it had great potential, but was ruined with a waffle that required a chainsaw to cut that tasted like cardboard (it was made with spelt). The tofu was somewhat interesting, though not very fried chicken like IMO, but without a solid waffle this dish was a fail. The huevos rancheros was boring, even with the added vegan cheese, and I doubt we will ever return.

Like old sweat shorts... The Gym stinks. 45 mins for food.. Poor service, no idea what the specials were, gross washrooms, dirty and more.. Even the name doesn't make sense.. Would not bother going back. Avoid if possible.

My mom and I were waiting for massages next door and decided to grab a bite here at Chopstix.There wasn't too much that was special about this place. Since it was during lunch time, I ordered the Chicken Broccoli Lunch Special. What I appreciated about my food is that it was made with lots of garlic! Yum!The environment was rather... drab. Though the booths and chairs were all clean, but it felt like they designed the place so that customers are encouraged to want to take food out instead. After I left, I realized they never included my egg roll with my lunch special! For that, I give them 2 stars instead of 3!

After the wonderful news that gay and lesbian couples can now legally marry in Phoenix, my fiance and I were delighted that we would not have to wait until next year to go out of state to get married. We found this company and thought they were a perfect fit for our special day. After planning with them for almost three weeks, we get this outrageous email message, \"We are very uncomfortable with same sex marriage as it is directly against our beliefs. We would not be a very good fit.\" They have refused to proceed with our ceremony. This company specifically states on their website, \" When it comes to your special day there is only one rule . . .You HAVE to be happy Your preferences are our priority\"How is my preference your priority when you have a problem with my preference in who I want to marry? Now, with only a month until our big day and plane tickets of friends and family already purchased, we have to try to find something in the budget we have created around this company. NOT COOL. I am more than dissatisfied, I am hurt and angry that there are still such closed minded people in the world who obviously do NOT know what love is.

I saw little flying bugs in the pastry cabinet! EW EW EW. On the pastry and flying!!! There was only one guy working so I wasn't too upset about how long the wait was. There were three people waiting for their drinks. But it gave me enough time to choose what I wanted. I ended up getting large passion fruit tea and it tasted like water. My stomach was kinda sick afterwards, not too sure if it was just me over thinking the bug thing or what. But this was my first and last time at this Starbucks. I'll stick to the actual stores.

I really dislike this entire chain. I have eaten a few and have not been impressed. They make these burritos look huge by packing them in flavorless overcooked rice then put a few ingredients on. They have additional items that you can buy a la carte to put on your burrito to add flavor, but you'd think they would be included. This is Tex-Mex cafeteria food.

Got a truck off them. Got a car fax. Paid for title fee. They fuck that up. Now I have to pay NV DMV to fix it. Now the paper work is late to the bank and the bank up the payment for late. Slow service. Didn't have paper work ready when they called me to come pick it up.The lady in the front desk was on the phone the whole time I was there taking personal phone calls. Mechs where in the waiting room watching TV. They were okay to talk to before giving them a check after that there died to you and service just goes to shit. I thought I would get better service coming back after a deployment from Afgan. Nope.

The inebriated owner commanded us, mere pawns in his game of drunk restaurant chess, to a table in the back with his index finger, very much resembling in manner an old nonchalant cavalry brigadier. That same finger told us, dummies, to wait for minutes next to the table while it got cleaned. But it was a different finger that kicked us out of the restaurant for asking the owner - who happened to also be our waiter - to repeat something he mentioned from his improvised lunch menu. This was the middle finger, which he flipped at us along with a healthy dose of swearing and insults in his determination to make sure that we would never again return to his glorious establishment for our terrible misconduct. But that particular finger came out only after our table was swept away from us in a fury of hate and madness as innocent bystanders watched in horror. We exited the restaurant in silence and humiliation for our contemptible actions. Never again would we stand up for our right to repeat what a waiter says - lesson learned! And never would we receive the honor of trying one of the Grotto's legendary food offerings. Confused? Then my review has served its purpose. My feeling of confusion lingered on that day, and only after my thought process finally cleared a bit did I start to comprehend the fact that this was undeniably the most repulsive restaurant experience of my life. Thanks to the Grotto, my standards for restaurant service have sank to the bottom of Mariana's Trench! In retrospect, since this episode, I am actually really enjoying visits to very average restaurants. My ultimate recommendation to fellow Yelpers: when your standards for restaurant service become impossible to satisfy and you see yourself handing out a bunch of 3 star reviews, do yourself a favor and pay the Italian Grotto a visit!

So I'm not usually one to fuss, pretty laid back so if something bothered me then well....bravo. This mcdonalds isn't in the greatest area, I can't fault the employees for that. I can expect that they get some shady characters and they sometimes you have to handle them a little bit more aggressively. Like tonight, customer causing a minor disturbance and was rude, and the girl which appeared to be a manager of some sort was behind the counter and got upset (naturally of course) she went and handled the customer. Waited for him to come out of the bathroom just waiting there while customers including myself were in line. Ok I get it, go handle the customer, go on with your bad self and handle the shituation. Yes I said shit-u-ation. I get it, go handle the stupid idiot. But when there's a line of customers waiting for service you would think you would get someone to cover you instead us waiting 5 minutes or ATLEAST a simple apology saying \"I'm sorry I'll be right with you\" instead she was cursing and mumbling under her breath. OH and she proceeded to follow him outside, let it go! He left! So another employee finally started taking orders only after telling me she was already clocked out! Unprofessional. Like come on handle the idiot but don't act like one. Rant over. Oh....and my fries are good.

PAY ATTENTION TO ALL THE BAD REVIEWS!! They are right. I am currently on hold with COX - 5 minutes later listening to really bad music on a loop so I decided to share my experience here. I had COX years ago and never had a problem so I decided to go with them when I moved back to the valley. I had several months of \"hidden\" charges on my bill and was sick of it so I decided to switch. I got a call from Patty in \"Outbound Retention\" who asked how I would stay. (the fact that that department exists should be a red flag right there) I told her and she got me a lower rate, better service and whole home DVR service...so I stayed. 3 months later. I have had billing problems EVERY month and I am currently on hold trying to keep them from turning my service off because they say I am past due when I am not. Unbelievable. I would switch tomorrow but was told they have to rewire some things in the attic and my walk in closet is the entrance...a lot of hassle. So here I am...on hold. He is getting the job done but I have already spent so much of my own time trying to fix their mistakes. If you are stuck with COX don't hesitate to tell them how unhappy you are, ask for a supervisor, threaten to switch....those things all have seemed to work. (but do it nicely, it seems to have more clout) I am basically going to threaten them if I have ONE more problem with billing I will switch. They really don't want you to go so this seems to be the only way to get your way at this company.

If I could give this place less than a star, I would. This was hands down one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant. Walking in, we were greeted right away, and sat right away. After being seated, we had to wait about 15 minutes until we were even looked at by anyone. Finally, we were approached by our waiter, who said he would be with us in a few minutes. What?! The fifteen minute wait wasn't bad enough? When he finally came bakc ,we ordered our drinks. We all got alcoholic drinks - and I also asked for some tap water to go alone with my meal. Upon returning, he brought back water in a glass bottle. Now, I've been to restaurants before, where they put their tap water in glass bottles to make it look more fancy - so I thought that's what this restaurant did too. WRONG. After seeing a couple tables next to us, with just regular cups of water, we flagged down our waiter to ask if this was the TAP water we had asked for. He said no, and that they charged for each bottle. We asked how much it was for each bottle, and he said he didn't know and would go find out. There were two things wrong with this situation: 1. How the hell do you not know how much a bottle of water costs? As a server, you should know your menu inside and out. 2. It took him fifteen minutes to get back to us with a price, which meant we went fifteen minutes without anything to drink, because we had all finished our drinks as well as the water. 0 stars for service. As for the food, bleh. Everything was salty and overcooked. They came by our table at least fifteen times with sausage, but we were only offered their beef items a few times. As for their salad bar, they had a lot of choices, but none of them really worth while. I will say that their chimichurri sauce was pretty good. Actually, it was the highlight of the meal. It was the only thing that was actually good. I would never set foot in this place again. HORRIBLE service, and sub par food. You are better off going to Fogo de Chao or Texas de Brazil.
