Case: This is a DISHONEST establishment. They do NOT post a price list and it changes each time you visit. I asked -specifically- for the exact thing I got the previous visit and verified the price was the same. Of course the answer was yes, until it came time to pay. It was $15 MORE. Terrible. Absolutely terrible.

Case: Run, don't walk away from this place.  This is by far one of the worst Chinese Buffets I have ever been to.  It is absolutely the lowest common denominator of restaurants.  The building has seen better days, which isn't necessarily a reason not to eat some place, but the food quality is highly questionable.  The soups set out so long they had begun to congeal.  The orange chicken, the seaseme chicken, and sweet and sour chicken were no longer crispy; they were mushy.  I was afraid to go near any of the beef entrees let alone the sushi bar.  I wish Arizona required sanitation grades like other states, but they don't.  Because the buffet was in such poor condition, I can't imagine what the kitchen looks like.  You are taking serious risks to your health by eating here; plus, you will be highly disappointed.  Panda Express is a five-star restaurant compared to this place.  As I said before: Run, don't walk away from this place!

Case: I was in the mood for some good mac and cheese, and people seem to like the pork chile verde mac and cheese here, so I gave it a try. Very good, more than enough for a meal.\n\nChips and salsa were good, and the empanada was delicious. I kicked things off with a blackberry mojito, one of many flavored mojitos on the menu, so I'll definitely be back to try the rest.

Case: Came here to catch up with an old friend a few weeks before classes started, so the area was a lot less crowded than it would be today. It's at a great location right on Mill Avenue, and we sat up at the bar for a late lunch.\n\nOriginally just planning on catching up over a Guinness, we decided to check out the lunch menu and I ended up ordering a pretty delicious burger. The Irish chips that accompanied the burger were a great break from normal French fries; a couple dashes of malt vinegar made them perfect. I'd highly recommend giving them a shot if you haven't tried them before.\n\nRain started pouring as a monsoon swept through Tempe during lunchtime, and the weather just happened to complement the Irish decor perfectly. We ended up striking up a conversation with the bartender and found out that he grew up in a neighborhood next to mine back in California. He even ended up showing us a few of his bartending tricks. Great guy, great food, and a great experience.

Case: Pretty good. Not greasy at all, the carne asada meat didn't have any strange gristle, the dining room was clean with good upkeep, and the to-go red sauce is spicy and flavorful without burning off your tastebuds.

Case: Definitely one of the best sushi joints in Vegas. It's really far from my house, but when I happen to be in the mood to make the drive over the only thing I ever dislike is the bill. Not crazy expensive, just not the cheapest place in town. You get what you pay for in this town, it's worth what they charge on the occasions that I do go.

Case: Good Korean food in the Valley continues to be difficult to find.

Case: Disappointing!! Check your to go order before leaving!!!  They forgot to pack the chicken in my salad!!  So, that ruined my dinner and the experience. The manager offered to reduce my next purchase 30%.....really?  I had to get pushy to get a free replacement when I visit again. Not that I expect that to happen anytime soon :(. I'll be heading to Fix8 Cafe from now on.  Teriyaki Madness lost my loyalty by not responding well when confronted. Bummer!

Classify the following: There should be a way to leave zero stars.  This room I was in was dirty and smelled funny.  Everything in the room was old and worn not to mention a terrible attempt to fix a big hole in the ceiling.  The bathroom was disgusting.  The only thing worse than the room was the staff.  In my two interactions with them I was ignored for long periods of time and treated dismissively when they did deign to speak to me.  I can't understand how they're still in business.
