Example: The decor here is fun, but the seating leaves a lot to be desired.  I don't know who came up with the idea to seat couples that don't know each other right next to each other, but that is the biggest draw back of this place for me.  I have been to a lot of the steak houses in the Burgh (Ruth Chris, Morton's, Capital Grille, Hyde Park) and Meat and Potatoes is my favorite.  I have never had a better aged rib eye, macaroni and cheese, and mashed potatoes.

Example: This is the best Pho I have had outside of when I went to Vietnam.  It does help I live around the corner from the restaurant.  My fianc\u00e9 and I get #6, and #8 respectively and both are always delicious.  As all of the other reviews have noted the servings are plentiful with an appropriate amount of meat/tripe.  \n\nI have eaten in restaurant as well as carry out.  I would recommend both.  Carry out is outstanding and only takes about five minutes from time of order to walking out the door (At least for Pho orders.)  While dining in, the owners/wait staff are from Vietnam and have limited English skills, pointing at items has happened.  \n\nI will finish up saying I have been here with my friend and his wife (From Vietnam) and they both agree this has some of the most authentic Vietnamese cuisine in the valley.\n\nI highly recommend eating here whether you stay and eat or get take out.

Example: Very flashy, sparkly, pretty... AND EMPTY!! Some of the hotel is like an empty airplane hanger. HUGE, LONG hallways with NOTHING in them. You are walking and walking with nothing to look at. When you first walk in, you are in the Chandelier Bar which is gorgeous. Lots of swarovski crystals high above a regular plain looking bar. Other than that, theres nothing else to look at- at least not on the casino floor and the 2 floors above that. The only good thing in the Cosmo is the Wicked Spoon Buffet. That was amazing and I ll review that seperately. The Cosmo is also attached to a BIG mall, called Crystals. Lots of expensive useless shops that you ll never go into- much like the mall in Palzzo or Ceasars Shoppes.

Example: Surprisingly nice hotel near Sky Harbor Airport. Sort of reminds me of an upscale European styled hostel with its common couch areas surrounding the lobby, free wifi, kitchen style snack bar where you can pick up breakfast and a fancy coffee maker that does coffee and hot chocolate. There is also a box of varied tea bags. \n\nRooms are spartan but very nicely laid out. A lot of physical and visual textures on the walls, floors and furniture. Very well laid out rooms, sorta like a hostel/ikea/hipster hotel mashup. Everything you need and packaged very comfortably. \n\nTip: When you book, there are special rates found on their website where you can get free breakfast, I would recommend that one. Airport shuttle every 30 minutes.\n\nNOTE: Iron and board are tucked away in a cubbie to the right of the bed if you are facing the bed from the foot.

Example: I was disappointed by this restaurant.  I like crab and crab-cakes especially.  I order four mini-crab cakes for $8.95.  They were the size of QUARTERS. It was an insult.  They tasted OK.\nI also ordered the calamari.  I tasted more batter than calamari.\nI also ordered the crab soup.  The soup lacked in crab flavor. It had a good blend of vegggies, but really lacked a seafood flavor.

Example: I was seriously disappointed in this location. We went to celebrate my husband's master degree and I was so bummed that this place let us down. We had reservations but it took 15 minutes to still get a seat. When we were seated the hostess gave us an ipad for wine choices but gave us no help on how to use it. As we were going through and trying to figure stuff out time passed-10, 15, 20, no lets try 30 minutes before I got up and went to the hostess station and complained that we had no drinks, nor had we ordered them yet, and we had a child with us and we were celebrating a special occasion. The manager came over then and explained that the area were we sat was full and only had one waitress, not my problem when I paying what I am. They gave us a bottle of wine on the house then. We finally got our drinks and half the cork was left in the bottle. When our food came it was just mediocre.  The meat we got was fine but I have had better for steak houses, honestly I can say that the Texas Roadhouse does better, and that is not what I should be saying by the standards I have read on this place. I had the prime rib and my husband had a house seasoned one and they were both just okay. My daughter had spaghetti and meatballs and the noodles were rubber. She loves noodles and said she did not want to eat them. Our dessert was the best part of the meal by far! I would go back for dessert if I was forced to but never again for their service or their food. We were by far the youngest people in the place as well and we are in our thirties. Everyone else was retired or elderly-not the sort of crowd we normally eat with either. I am honestly disappointed that we went to celebrate this amazing accomplishment and it turned into a 3 hour ordeal of trying to get a meal put together because they were too busy. Wish they would have told me that when I made the reservations. They also never came back to ask if we wanted more wine or drinks for our party of 5. What a let down.

Example: This place is great, if you're into over-priced drinks, date-rape, and the smell of Preparation H.

Example: Love this place! Reminds me of being in vacation, as you don't see many places like this in Az. The owner is super friendly and let's you try before making your selection. The bar is super small and cozy with fun trivia cards to test your knowledge. Looking forward to going back!

Considreing the above, classify the following: My coworkers and I visit Kaya for happy hour, occasionally.  I love the ambiance!  Brick faced walls mixed with a non-tacky tropical vibe.  It's warm and inviting - a great place to go.\n\nI've only nibbled on a couple appetizers - Conch fritters were tasty and the black bean dip was not too bad either.  However their drinks... I have a favorite.\n\nI've tried the Graduate which is sage liquor, limoncello, lemon, sparkling wine.  It's very fresh but a tad bit sweet.  I asked my bartender his favorite and he said the Pisco Sour - Barsol Pisco, lime, egg white*, Angostura bitters.  Frothy yet tart - I love it!  We have a winner :)\n\nIf you're looking for a great happy hour venue, try Kaya and have a Pisco Sour.  I'll be there too, so say hello!
