Text - The sushi rolls are well balanced...compared to other sushi restaurants who add more rice to make it look bigger. The food tasted great and the ingredients complemented each other. The ambiance is relaxing and comfortable. Great service.

Text - I used to come here a long time ago when I lived in the area and since I recently moved back to this side of town I decided this was close and I'd start coming back here. Well, unfortunately I won't be coming back here ... Ever. And here's why...\n\nI came in today as a walk in and was asked \""what I need\"" and I said I wanted gel, then was told ok \""one minute\"" and so I went over to the seating area to wait, as I knew \""one minute\"" was not going to really be one minute and that just meant I had to wait, a strange way of Asian nails places to get you to stay and wait? When really I'm usually okay with waiting and expect it if I don't have an appointment. It's be nice if there was more accuracy in that regard, but oh well I'm used to it who cares right?\nWhatever so I'm sitting there waiting and 2 girls walk in and seem to have been familiar faces to the owner (so I assume) up front, the same guy who \""greeted\"" me (if that's what you want to call it) there was \""hi how are yous\"" exchanged and they were asked what they want they said \""both wanted a full set\"" then were told to wait over in my direction. They came sat right next to me and as he was finishing up with his customer and she was paying he yelled \""would you like a pedicure too\"" and I assumed he was talking to me because I was next right? But before I could say anything the girls answered yes. So he went back to his station and motion to come over and sit down, again I'm thinking this is me because I had been waiting and therefore I was next (or should have been) the two girls said quickly \""both of us?\"" And he shook his head as they got up to walk over there and sat down. At this point I was like really? That's not cool. It's one thing that I was skipped but another thing that I was not even acknowledge nor did he say \""I'll be right with you\"" or something of the sort. Kind of rude, but I continued to sit and wait for him or someone to motion me on over but as I looked around and realized that was not happening any time soon, I just got up to walk out. As I was walking out he nearly screamed at me \""WAIT JUST ONE MINUTE\"" again and I politely said \""no thank you\"" and continued out the door. \n\nObviously he took precedence over the two girls, one because they were familiar customers, and two because they were spending more money than me. \nI came in gym clothes with no make up on and looking kind of haphazard from working out... Had I been all dolled up I have a feeling I would've been treated differently, based on how I was treated alone. \nIt's too bad because I am a loyal customer who is in the service industry myself, therefore tip very well. \n\nWORD OF ADVICE: you should really think about they way you do business, especially when there a 15 other nail salons within a half a mile to a mile radius. \nThanks. But like I said, NO THANKS.

Text - I write reviews because a place deserves my attention.\n\nThis time it's because I'm PISSED.\nI'll echo and reinforce what was said earlier, with my own experience.\nI go to this Qdoba maybe once a week because it's near my work and I can walk to it. I guess I have to open my mouth more so I get what I want instead of assuming that I'll get good portions of what matters, like in (angels sing) Chipotle or Baja Fresh.\n\nI order a steak burrito. I was the only one in there.\nShe steams the tortilla.\n\""Chicken or steak?\""\nPAY ATTENTION!!!\n\nAnother time I went in, this most recently last week, I get the same thing. I always say light rice and get it fine. Different woman from the previous paragraph gives me this look like \""I dare you to say something\"" as she totally skimps on the steak with a sprinkling of half a spoonful, like a dog testing you to see what she can get away with. What is this, war rationing?! You give less so you can take home more at the end of the day?\nI talked to my friend about this and he says yeah, he always hears people asking for more this or that.\nCilantro rice..... where's the cilantro? \nYou mean that speck right there?\n\nI'M GETTING A STEAK BURRITO, not a steak flavored pinto bean and rice burrito!! GIVE ME THE FULL SPOONFUL!!!!\n\""Hard times, Qdoba?\"" Methinks so. I too have noticed the newly thin tortilla that ruptures every time.\nI think the guac put on your burrito is half the price of Chipotle, so that's a saving grace,  and this place gets 2 stars because it's delicious as long as I get my burrito my way, as in micro-managing portions as it's being made.\n\nADDENDUM:\nThe GUYS don't pull any BS and have their head screwed on straight.\nJust found out now. Decent burrito.\n\nADDENDUM #2 June 27,2011:\nIf there's trace amounts of pico in the container, don't scoop up THREE chunks of tomato and put it on my burrito and then look at me like \""what's next?\"" and it's OK and normal. \nIT IS NOT. \nSTOP THINKING I'M F-ING STUPID AND WILL ACCEPT IT.\nRefill that pico container, I'll wait.\n\nYES I'm gonna tell you how to do your damn job --------\nDistribute the ingredients somewhat evenly along the length of the tortilla!!\nHOW HARD IS THAT?\n\nSheesh!\nNow get it right or I'll dock your ass another star.\n\nADDENDUM August, 2011: The blond gal is the only gal who cares. Come in weekday afternoons after the lunch rush and she'll do an absolutely perfect burrito job. If I had it my way all the tips would go to HER. Thank you blondie!! I don't know your name.\n\nADDENDUM SEPT 2011:  Uh oh, did I see a Spanish-speaker get extra meat while gringo me got the standard ho-hum level spoonful? \nDid I just witness racism?

Text - Went here for a quick lunch when I arrived in Tempe. The menu has a large variety of different Mexican and not so Mexican dishes. I had the carne asada; it was decent. Nothing to complain about, but nothing to rave about either.

Text - I absolutely loved visiting this stadium, even though it the Dodger's training facility, but really it's only half theirs.  Anyway, came to see my SF Giants play the Sox (White).  First of all, free parking!  Yay!  Anything free is great.  The grounds are beautiful with nice scenery as you walk to the stadium.  It's a bit of a walk if you are carrying stuff, just FYI.  \n\nWe purchased lawn seats, which were only $10, a steal to what we paid at the Scottsdale Stadium!  We were advised by fans in the parking lot to buy lawn seats then find an empty seat later.  $10 entrance is well worth the money.  First of all, sitting on the lawn is not bad at all!  You can get really close to the outfield and you get an excellent view of the players and the bullpen.  I was lucky enough to catch Bruce Bochy signing autographs just before the game!  He was walking from the bullpen to the dugout and stopped for the fans along the way!  Ok back on track, what I like about this stadium is how open it is, so if you get up to go the bathroom or to get a soda, you can still see the game!  How brilliant!  And if it's too hot there's plenty of shade between first base and third where you can just hang out and watch under the fancy seats and what must be a clubhouse above you.  \n\nBest of all, the food options here are wonderful!!  Definitely visit the burrito and taco stand.  For $9 you get a monster burrito or tacos, made to order, your choice of carne asada, or chicken, or both!  It's such a deal and the best stadium food I had on this trip!  They have the hot dogs, sausages, Island noodles, and all the other crap, but I exhausted those options at the other games.  \n\nThe stadium is clean, beautiful and modern.  There are plenty of stalls in the bathroom, so no waiting, and it's very clean!!  I was very impressed that they actually played walk-up music for each White Sox player!  That's as good as you get to the regular season!  \n\nI look forward to coming back!

Text - TENDER Steak & Seafood at Luxor is an unexpectedly great dining place. The food is SPECTACULAR, even though the atmosphere and service is not on par with that of a fine dining establishment. If you plan to check this place out, you must try the lobster risotto. Also, they have A5 wagyu kobe-style beef that is to.die.for. The pricing is similar to other fine dining restaurants, and rightly so due to the quality of the food. However, it may seem slightly pricey since there isn't the full fine dining experiencing, lacking in the areas of service and overall environment.

Classify the following: My wife's 2008 Dodge Durango's water pump failed, and her car over heated, so she had to stop by the side of the road. She had the car towed to Prestige Dodge on Centennial. They then told her she needed a new water pump, belt, belt tensioner... Oh and your brakes need to done and you need a tune-up for a total of $2000.00. \nI spoke to the service rep, Manuel Cardenas, and I asked him for a detailed breakdown. $1250.00 for labor, the rest in parts. I thought all the fees were outrageous. So I had our car towed to a different mechanic. But before I could take the car from Prestige , I had to pay $129.00 for diagnostic fees. Basically, someone to look at the non-rotating water pump for 30secs and saying \""yup, the water pump is out!\""\nA bit of highway robbery!\nThe other mechanic being ethical charged less then $200.00 in parts and $200 in labor. \nBoth new water pump and brake pads. The poor thing is... That the car had 135,000 miles on it and we are ready to buy a new Durango but it won't be at Prestige Dodge!!
