Example: Oh man.  So good.  Went here on my birthday and went all out with the rock lobster and filet combo.  Holy crap!  It is amazing!!  We also had crab cakes as an app. and my boyfriend got the crawfish ettouffe (sp?).  Everything was super yummy, the server was great (Thanks Alex!) and the restaurant ran like a well oiled machine.  Can't wait to go back!!!\nPS- get a Bellini!!!

Example: I was hoping for more.  I really was.  I just got back - this is my fourth time there, always for breakfast/pastries, always willing to drop more money than usual.  If you're not a fan of reading a story, let me just sum it up:  go to Starbucks instead.\n\nFrom a visual aesthetics perspective, it's not too shabby.  The place has a little bit of curb appeal, an unusually large mixer that's clearly for display purposes, and a semi-minimalistic kitschy interior.  Okay, this might not be bad...\n\nBut then you see the line.  It's sort of a cluster of people standing around the front, with a theme that implies the line starts near the door, sort of.  At 7:30AM, the crowd made me want to stand in line to get OUT of the place, not in.\n\nNonetheless, I made my way to order.  I was glad to see some breakfast items that I could relate to, and ultimately decided on something I wouldn't make at home: quiche lorraine.  I was promised it was \""amazing\"".  It wasn't.  Now, take a 21 min intermission, because that's how long it took to get my food (yes, it took so long I started to pay attention to it).\n\nFirst, let me just say that I know what a microwaved pastry tastes like.  Been there, done that.  This was more of the same.  If something is warm on the edges, but cold in the middle, consider the microwave.  F*ck, that was a waste of time and money.  I would ask for them to heat it up, but alas, look at that damn line.  My friend, who was having the french scrambled eggs, told me that it was nothing amazing.  Pretty basic.  So I had a bad experience and he had an \""acceptable\"" experience.  Score: 3/5\n\nOn another trip, I lucked out, because there wasn't a line.  It's like the clouds parted and there was an open register.  I walked up, ordered some huevos frenchos, and took my seat.  Cue a 16 minute wait - hey, they're improving.  This time around, my food was decent.  I couldn't complain.  Taking advantage of the lack of line, I went back up and asked if they had coffee.  The kind gentleman gave me a cup, pointed to the coffee jug, and said \""$2.26\"".  Wow, at least in Starbucks they'll fill the cup up for me at that price.\n\nThat's the recurring theme here on the food.  Moderately (not severely) expensive, with products that don't seem to match that expectation.  Now, I must say, ALL the pastries that I have tried, especially the macaroons, are delicious.  However, even the cost of a macaroon is more expensive here in Phoenix than the macaroons at Bouchon, a Thomas Fuckin' Keller creation.  This places charges considerably more and isn't even on par.  Yikes.  Funny part is, that complaint about the macaroons is really about 65 cents.  Oh well, I digress to digest.  I'll save my parking rant, whatthehelldoyouhavetodrink? rant, and more for some other time.

Example: I ordered delivery because of the good reviews. I ordered garlic knots and a hawaiian pizza. When the food arrived, the garlic knots were stale and crunchy. I could not eat them. The pizza wasn't much better. The cheese was already rubberized andbthe grease soaked through to the bottom leaving a floppy, soggy crust. I wouldn't recommend eating this to anyone. It was one of those times that trying something new over the usual was a disaster.

Classify the following: My girlfriend and I were told by several folks at our country club how good the food is at this place.\nWe finally got to go on or about Memorial Day. \nWe sat at the bar as the place was fairly crowded.\nWe ordered a bottle of wine and were perusing the menu when my eye was caught by a guy behind the bar. I watched as he took a rag of some sort out of a sink of soapy water, with his little utility/sterile/plastic gloves on, and wiped down what appeared to be a long. white, plastic cutting board.\nHe then took out a handful of vegetables and began chopping them, WITH THE EXACT SAME GLOVES ON, and put them in a bowl to be served to someone.\nAs this was happening I was giving my girlfriend a rather mocking play-by-play, both of us in disbelief. Some girl behind the bar said they have a bottle of anti-bacteria they use before they begin cutting veggies.\nOk...fine. Maybe they do have some....but he did not use it. While that makes as much sense as washing Solo cups....gloves are about $0.02 apiece so why not just change them....I watched his entire motion and he never ONE TIME slathered any anti-bacteria on his gloved hands...not even once.\nWe were extremely disappointed because we REALLY wanted to try their food... but disgusted trumped disappointed that night and we ate elsewhere. Not sure if we'll ever get to go there now since the image of this disgusting person will forever be in our minds....along with the lying girl who was making excuses for him.
