Case: 24 hours later... still waiting for a call back from some manager named 'trey.' can't get anyone on the phone. and they overcharged me $200+ after I left the hotel with no explanation. THIS PLACE IS A JOKE. GUARD YOUR WALLETS. I'm reporting them to the better business bureau and to my credit card company.

Case: I don't understand how anyone has enjoyed this restaurant. I'm guessing the good reviews are by \""friends\"" of the restaurant. It's the only explanation.\n\nI had high hopes for this spot. Went here on a weekday evening. Restaurant was pretty empty, so I can't blame the terrible service on being crowded. We ordered a lotta tapas. Only about 3 quarters of them actually showed up at the table, and after eating them I wished even less than that would have showed up. Nothing stood out as good, and most stood out as bad. A couple of the big lowlights for me were the chicken and cheese croquetas and the corndogs. The croquetas were inedible. One of the worst things I've been served in a restaurant. The corn dogs were soggy on the outside and dry on the inside. It's a corndog. How can you screw that up? I can buy better corndogs in the Vons freezer section. The server didn't seem to recognize we hardly touched any of it, and nobody questioned us as to whether things were ok.\n\nSurprisingly we were not charged for the tapas that were ordered and didn't hit the table. After my experience there I totally expected to be. I guess that's the only positive of the evening. We were charged correctly.\n\nNext time I want tapas, I'm going to Firefly.

Case: Enjoyed a Tuesday evening dinner while our daughter and friends attended the J Biebs concert. \n\n  Tried the Crispy Calamari  which was terrific. Awesome taste combination with the apple, peanut, coconut and vinaigrette. We also had the Cuban sandwich  and  the Jamaican Green Curry Vegetables. I really enjoyed the Cuban sandwich but my wife was not a big fan of her veggie dish. \n  We were also there in time to partake in the drink happy hour which we were ALL fans of!\n\n  Great place and very friendly staff. Stop and check it out when you find yourself in the Strip!

Case: The history behind Public House is a very interesting one, so I was curious to try it out.  The owner's great grandfather opened the first \""Garage\"", which was a front for his moonshine.  Soon \""garages\"" were popping up all over the places, for people in the \""know\"" who wanted to drink and socialize during the Prohibition.  Today, the owner wants to carry on this tradition in the \""Garage\"" being the place for people to eat, drink, and socialize.\n\nI think it is a good place to watch the game, and have some local brews.  During Happy Hour the price of a brew is $3.  The bar fare is just that.  Bar Fare.  Ideal for happy hour, watching Football, snacking on some wings and nachos.  I do not recommend bringing a date here for a Saturday night dinner.\n\nI came here for a Sunday Brunch.  I was not impressed with the food or the service.  Although our server was friendly, she was often leaving the table too quickly and then not returning for a while - so that I had to get up and find her.  Despite the place being less than half empty, it took a very long time to get our orders, although they were breakfast sandwiches and eggs.  The orders also came out wrong, the potatoes were nearly raw, and even the english muffin was barely toasted and had the taste of something that has been in a refrigeration unit too long.  However, the Mimosas ($2) and Bloody Marys ($4) are a terrific value for a Sunday, but unfortunately not enough incentive to come back.\n\nI tend to be the kind of person that looks at the positives in any establishment, but I just have to be honest and say that it was all a bit underwhelming.

Case: This is probably the only bar in Pittsburgh that can make a proper Last Word, not to mention that they have a couple of barrel-aged cocktails on the menu (Manhattan, Negroni).  Nice program, wasn't expecting to find that out here.  \n\nHowever, a bartender took my order and then proceeded to never serve it up.  I eventually just took my seat at the table when the party arrived.  Seriously, how hard is it to serve up a barrel-aged cocktail? -1 star.\n\nFood wise, here's what we tried:\n\n- Kobe Corn Dog (Solid)\n- Chorizo / Pulled Pork Mac-n-Cheese\n- Pub Burger (The menu here is confusing as it says pork belly pastrami, when really they just meant thick sliced bacon... come on guys let's stop watching so many episodes of Mad Men)\n- Korean Reuben\n- Fish-n-Chips (fried skate)\n\nThe burgers, sandwiches, and fish and chips were all great, but damn the portions were big.  If Jon Taffer ever came to this place he would say that the food costs are probably out of control.  An upscale place like this should be serving share plates like sliders, not giant deli sandwiches.  I can't complain about them for giving lots of food to us, it may be that they have to do that to compete for local business for all I know.  Just saying that I would have preferred more small plate options.

Case: I had a full set of pink and white acrylics done, and Ann did a fantastic job.  My mom also came with me for a manicure and pedicure, she ended up getting only a pedicure.  There was quiet a line and she didn't want to take up too much time.  She enjoyed the young lady that did her pedicure as well.  I will absolutely be returning for a fill in a couple of weeks.

Classify the following: Open till 11 pm? came at 9:30 they couldn't do my acrylic fill because two people were in front of me?! 'We don't have any openings, sorry' Are you kidding?
