Case: Ahhhhh the irony! The gf and I woke up Labor Day, and we were gonna go for it. We were going for the Dick's!  Arrived at 11am, and it was busy, but we still got 2 seats right at the bar. sweet. Ordered Bloody Marys and our bartender gave us 2 little sidecars of DosXX. Wha? \""It's all about you, today,\"" and he smiled. So cool. We were tired, hungover, and this was such a nice bright touch to start our day.  \n\nTenderloin Benedict (medium rare) for me, Adovada for the lady. Clean plates: indeed!  I'm really a bitch about a good hollandaise and man, I have got to hand it to them, they do it proper. The adovada was saucy and totally hump-worthy.\n\nWhat a fantastic way to start off my Fall. This Kitty is a-purring!

Case: I love the soup here.  Tomato Basil and whatever special of the day is on the menu.  That, and the garlic bread, even though it's 80 cents.\n\nI tried a pizza once.  It was wet in the middle and pretty unencumbered by flavor.\n\nI tried a smoothie once.  It was aiight.  Never been compelled to try another.\n\nI tried a salad once.  It was pretty boring, and it made me miss Pluto's back in Palo Alto.\n\nBut the tomato basil soup, I love.  It's divine with its small sprinkling of grated parmesan (?) cheese that melts only halfway even though you stir it.  \n\nOne thing I don't appreciate is the impatient guy who calls out my name.  He was pretty obnoxious this one time when I didn't respond on the first call.  But rudeness and some small confusion about not having a form to just order soup won't keep me away from good soup on Green Street.\n\nUnder 4 bucks for a bowl of soup that comes with a small piece of french bread is good eatz.  And fast, too.

Case: I'm not going to lie on this one.  I am scared to write a review on Shady's because I don't want it to change.  The charming nature of a bar that has the perfect amount of people per seat per space is one of the biggest positives of Shady's.  The people are real, open for a good conversation, and definitely friendly.  The bartenders are kind.  I haven't ordered anything difficult at this point, so I don't know their knowledge of the bar, but I do know that they pour a good Guinness, and the ice is cold for a whiskey rocks.\n\nThere are a couple of reasons, that I give this spot a 5.  First, it is a great little bar to come to between 12-1 for the last stop before going home.  Big a few girls, and play some pool, listen to the Juke Box, and have a great conversation.  I also love Shady's when I don't really feel like going \""out-out\"" and hitting up the Old Town, Tempe, or Downtown scenes.  Shady's is different.  It is unique.  And most importantly, they aren't trying to be something.  They just are what they are.  Take it or leave it.

Case: The place was busy as expected when there are events downtown. The server came over pretty quick and took our drink order, then delivered them promptly, that's where the good ended. Waited about 20 minutes for her to come back, finally flagged her down to take our order. The most pathetic looking chicken nacho came out first. It was missing the chicken, tomatoes, jalapenos, black olives, guac and had about 5 black beans on it, we sent it back. The new one came out still missing toppings and the chips were burnt. My wife had a wrap which she said was good, my buddy said his pizza was alright. My burger that I ordered medium came out raw, and our friends medium burger was well done. She ate hers I sent mine back. My new burger came 15 minutes later and was super greasy. We had to flag our server down to get the check, which she ended up getting wrong three times. We were there for 2 1/2 hours and received a small discount from the manager. I don't know if this is how it's normally run or if they were understaffed for some reason, but I'm hesitant to go there again.

Case: Was stopped twice by the staff for their Time Share Scam. Came out of the elevator and was asked if we wanted a free lunch because we were a guest. Said sure and was told I would have to sit thru their seminar. No obligation, but would need to give them $20 refundable deposit. No Thank You!! Every time we went to our room we would get harassed. This made us not want to go back to the hotel  when we were out on the town. They also charge a Resort Fee and for in-room coffee.

Case: The portions don't look like much, the plate is very shallow but when you finished the curry dish, you are stuffed!\n\nVery good Japanese curry, not much veggies but very rich and thick.  The plates start off around $6 or so, but add a dollar or so for an add-on.\n\nAlso ordered the fried oyster special 6 for $6.  The oysters were on the small side but very crispy and juicy on the inside.  A good choice to compliment your curry meal.\n\nAnother excellent option in the heart of Las Vegas Chinatown.

Case: This is a very short version of my son & my story.\nLet me start off by saying I was 36 weeks pregnant.\nMay 13th 10am: My husband and I had an appointment to get an ultra sound just to see how big our son was. After the ultra sound we were scheduled at 11am to meet with \nDr. Pack for my weekly check and so we could get the results of the ultra sound. When we arrived at the office at 9:45am we were greeted by Dr.Pack's nurse, she stated that because Dr. Pack had no patients at the moment they were going to bring me back before my ultra sound so they could get me in. I said that was fine but the whole point of having the appointment schedule for after the ultra sound was to be able to go over the ultra sound results. She said she couldn't guarantee that he would be able to see me after the ultra sound even though my appointment was schedule for after the ultra sound. \nWhile she was taking my vitals she had asked if I was experiencing anything new I wanted to discuss with the doctor. \nI had stated that the last couple of days I had noticed that I wasn't feeling my son Lennon move around as much. She responded with ok and continued typing in her laptop. Once we were moved into a room Dr. Pack came in within minutes. As soon as he came in he asked how I was doing? I stated the same thing to him that I had been noticing that Lennon wasn't moving as much as normal. (Lennon had been a huge mover through out my pregnancy up until then) \nDr. Pack proceeded to listen to his heartbeat for a quick 10 seconds and said he sounds good. Then said, \""Well that's normal, he's probably just moving into your birth canal.\"" And that was that, didn't ask any further questions about our concern. \nAfter the first meeting with him we were greeted by the ultra sound technician. While walking us back to her room she asked how we were doing and how the baby was? I had stated that I was doing pretty good that I was tired from having such a busy weekend and I shared with her the same concern that I hadn't been feeling Lennon move around as much. Her reply to this was that \""He's probably just tired from your busy weekend.\"" \nDuring the ultra sound I asked if Lennon and everything looked ok? She said yes everything looked good and said my placenta-looked good. After the ultra sound she said let me get you put in a room so you can meet with Dr. Pack again. While walking to a room Dr. Pack saw us in the hallway and stopped to look at the ultra sound report in the hallway. He glanced at it and said \""everything looks normal we will see you next week for your next appointment.\"" \nMy husband and I thought all right well everything must be all right then, they would know they are the professionals. \n\nLater that day I was in full blown labor. Went to St Rose San Martin and had to have an emergency c section due to my son not being responsive. Our son had lost a lot of blood and was severely anemic. He had to have 3 blood transfusions. Stayed in the NICU for two weeks. Turned out my son had been losing blood inside of me and I was stealing his blood. I had a hole in my umbilical cord, my placenta was huge and I had a lot of extra fluid. Not only was I lucky to be alive but my son as well. \n\nWe had found out that Lennon had been bleeding out inside of me. I was basically stealing his blood that he was losing. After doing pathology on my stuff turns out I had a hole in my umbilical cord, my placenta was huge and I had a lot of fluid. So we were beyond lucky that Lennon is in our lives, because of how much blood he had lost he could've died. We were told that Lennon had possibly been losing blood for at least a week with how anemic he was. \n\nMy husband and I were very upset with Dr. Pack's decision to not do a stress test in office or to send us to the hospital just to yield on the side of caution. I could've not only lost my life BUT also my sons life. The horrible thing is I had never been pregnant so I was unsure what was right or wrong feeling. Now my biggest tip is if you ever question anything during your pregnancy GO TO THE HOSPITAL. \n\nI would never recommend Dr. Pack as a doctor. He made a horrible decision that day. A decision not to be cautious and take what we were telling him seriously. Today I am happy to say our son is wonderful. He's a month old, has no issues from how he came into the world and is just the biggest blessing ever. I hope this review helps whom ever reads our story.

Case: I've never stayed at this resort, but I've been here several times to meet clients in the Mbar.  This place is a cool spot to do that because it's tucked away in Paradise Valley and the property is gorgeous.  Parking is easy with a Valet entrance just off of Lincoln Dr.  I like to meet here during Happy Hour (3-6 pm).  I will write a separate review for the Mbar.\n\nReturn Factor - 90%
