Text - Food was decent, not too sure how this place is getting such rave reviews though...\n\nProbably the most expensive Mexican place of it's style. $25 for a burro, two tostadas, and two mini-tacos. Seriously?! Also, no free refills or chips/salsa.\n\nAre we going back? No.

Text - I was really irritated with this place.  I called up prior to heading over for a problem with my wife to check on ER wait times.  The woman on the phone was extermely rude.  She told me she could not give me that kind of information.  When I followed up with 'Is there alot of people waiting?' I received the same answer, just with more attitude.  \n\nI followed up with an additional question about insurance.  After being transfered to admissions or billing (?), someone who should know, asking the question again, a non-answer was for some reason rudely given. \""We bill all insurances\"".  OK, thats great, are you an in-network provider for my insurance?  \""I can't answer that question!\"" ...CLICK!  She hung up on me!\n\nI would give it less stars, but I really don't know how the medical staff actually is.  Support staff needs wrk!

Text - There are about 4 really small tables and then about 4 bar stools. Absolutely no room to actually stay and eat. They have tables and chairs outside but if it's cold you can't actually be comfortable and eat outside. The food is average at best. I was disappointed with the service. I came in, ordered 3 sandwiches for me, my wife and daughter and two drinks. The cashier then goes and only prepares my sandwich. He says the other sandwiches will be ready in a few minutes. He then goes and attends to the drive thru (which came in after me and then gets another drink for a guy who came in after me). We finally get the other two sandwiches 15 minutes later. This is not acceptable. I realize he is the only person working but honestly this is poor service. As a first time person attending this establishment it put me off.

Text - If you're a horror fan you should definitely check out Goretorium.  It is much scarier than Halloween Horror Nights.  It is somewhat overpriced at $40 but you can pick up 1/2 price tickets at one of the Half-Price show tickets stands along the strip.

Text - Gastronomy, refinement and diversity are the words I would use to describe 9 on 9.\n\nThe Dinner menu has 3 sections, Warm, Cold and Entr\u00e9e`  The warm consists of items that could be appetizers but are a bit large to just be that, they would make a great bar meal mostly ranging from $12-16\n\nThe entr\u00e9e's are a bit higher priced at $25-30 but are well worth it. I had the Barramundi $28 that came on a bed of potato risotto, green beans and was garnished with \""basil caviar\"" which was made using some food science trickery. The fish was seared with a nice curst yet soft and flakey inside, the potatoes were just right, firm and packed with a stubble flavor. The basil caviar was a fun and flavorful garnish.\nMy coworker had the salmon, served with seared bock choy,  green beans and a mushroom corn sauce. The portion looked huge and it was topped with a foam. $26\n\nThe ambiance matches the food, dim, modern yet luxurious. Great for a date, celebration meal or just a great meal out.

Text - My regional manager was in town for a couple of days & was staying at the Sheraton downtown. I have heard mixed reviews about the District but thought I would check it out for myself...what a mistake! Please know, my manager loves all the great non-chain places (Vig, Postino, etc) I take her to when she comes to Phoenix so all the more disappointing to have such a terrible meal. \nI will start by saying the service was great & prompt. The bread before dinner was yummy but it all went downhill from there. There were 3 of us & we all had different meals ( Short ribs, lobster pasta & steak) & all 3 were horribly salty. After a couple of bites I realized the taste of my short ribs closely resembled the smell of a sour/dirty sponge! \nOur server offered to bring us all something different but by that point we were all so tired & turned off we opted not to have her go through the trouble. The manager also came by & offered dessert or anything else we wanted which was nice & earned them the stars. Our entire dinner was taken care of by the manager with the exception of my pineapple mojito which was good, but we all went to bed hungry that night. \nSo if you are in the area & looking for a place to have drinks then it is great spot for that but I would avoid the food.

Text - if you like charred hot dogs burgers and brats and polish this is the place! every time i go, i get a reg hot dog(chi style), small cheese burger and onion ring(there yummy) and its great every time no other place is like this in the valley. its all good stuff, but i don't like the spicy relish and if you say Chicago style they will but this stuff on there. and if you go there between 12 and 2 there will be a huge line! it goes by fast tho, and it gives you time to watch them poke and stab your meat!

Text - This place was really great!! We came here for late dinner Friday and we were seated right away. The ambiance is really chic and trendy- a little dark...as the new/hot places always are....but everything was super comfortable and nice. \nWe started with the lamb meatballs on a bed of lentils and other beans. Seriously, I have never had lentils made this good anywhere. I still have mouth-watering thoughts of it.\nWe had 3 pizzas- the classic pepperoni (yuuuum), the potato-leek (amazing!!!) and the fungi (I don't eat mushrooms, but my friends thought this was great)\nCan't wait to visit Arizona again to come here again....especially for those lentils!

Classify the following: I was there last night may 8th around 9pm to listen to a band I like to follow.  Short story I'll never go back. \n\nThe place was no busy I was just the 4th person at the bar yet two bartenders on duty... Should have had excellent customer service right?   Nope. \n\nI had one beer and asked for a menu,  given one but was never asked if I wanted anything.   I was obviously an interpretation to this lady bartender social hour.   I had to ask her to take my order in passing but still had to wait.   I would have left sooner but was the to hear some accistic music.   I ordered a salad that was rushedly thrown on front of me.   \n\nI finished my one beer and placed it out to signal I wanted another but instead she took my almost finished salad and my empty beer and went back to socializing with her friends. \n\nI couldn't handle such poor customer service,  and had the second guy get my tab.   I would never go there again. \n\nOn top of that the $5 salad was about a half a Palm full of greens,  a rip off. \n\nThat bartender though shouldn't be working,  she's doing harm to your business.
