Case: Legends...interesting name. With a name like Legends, one would assume sports bar, but not so much. And I very much liked it that way! Let's roll into a pro/con list...\n\nPros:\n-Great, friendly service. Morgan was my server and she was super fantastic. Quick, efficient, sweet. She offered up helpful suggestions and even let me try a sample of the soup of the day before I placed my order.\n-Homemade focaccia: Mmmm rosemary! Tasty and free slivers of love to go with your meal. \n-Portions: Mammoth. From the bowls of soup to the pastas to the pies...sharing is caring.\n-Spinach ravioli: My main dish of choice. Flavorful spinach and cheese pillows of pasta cooked al dente and smothered with tomato basil sauce with a touch of cream. Damn good pasta, my friends.\n\nCons:\n-Menu items price out a few dollars higher than similar Italian joints. But, the value is here, though, because of the increased portions. \n-Restaurant set up/ambiance: Is a bit odd. It's kinda like a diner...with bare tables...and carpet...and a few random pictures on the wall. \n-No booze, beer or wine. It is BYO, but I didn't see the corkage fees listed on their menu.\n\nOverall, a solid place for homecooked Italian eats. I would sprint back to Legends just for that ravioli! Mangia!

Case: Jinya Ramen Bar has an interesting seating arrangement with individual tables surrounding a large center table that can fit total of 15+. After frequenting Monta and Sora countless times, I decided to give Jinya a try. \n\nUpon looking at the menu, I was enamored by the Jinya Pork Bun which was excellent. A friend in the party ordered gyoza and that was surprisingly good. (My expectations for gyoza are usually pretty low)  \n\nNext came the Spicy Chicken Ramen with HOT spice level. It was ok, nothing too special. Friend got the Tonkotsu Black which is more garlicky and rich and I think that would have been a bit more to my liking. 3 stars\n\nComparing all these ramen places is difficult, but I'd still rank Ramen Sora as my personal favorite. However, the side dishes (Pork Bun and Gyoza) were so delicious that I give it 4 stars.

Case: I made a difficult decision. For me, anyway. After noticing that my nails were literally peeling I decided to stop the gel manicures. I had also started feeling a sensitivity in my fingertips. Articles online said that the gel polish can cut off oxygen to the nails. So it was with a heavy heart that I walked into Coming Nails to have a pedicure and my gel polish removed. This is not my usual salon.\nThey took me right away. I was at first gagged with the fumes. The door was closed and there was no sign of a vent system. I became quickly acclimated as I knew I would be. I chose a color and sat in the chair. A TV on the wall blared out Judge Judy. It was jarring. I tuned it out as I turned on the massage chair. \nThe technician, a younger woman with no name tag, struggled with English. There was no conversation. But that didn't bother me. I was here to relax. What bothered me was when she dug under my toenail and made me cry out. And then shortly after, she nearly burned my foot during the rinse. My foot was red.\nThen it was time for the manicure. I had explained to her and to a much older woman who seemed to be in charge twice that I wanted the polish removed without replacement because my nails were damaged. She still asked what color I wanted and when I said no color, she seemed surprised. I explained again and the older woman translated. \nDuring the manicure, she was as aggressive as during the pedicure. She trimmed my ring finger and drew blood. I told her that she has to stop hurting me. She didn't acknowledge the injury. She wanted to know about my home life. I was in no mood to chat at this point.\nThey continued to talk in Vietnamese while I sat there. I then realized that she was pulling the manicure instruments out of her drawer. They hadn't been cleaned. So I was bleeding from dirty instruments. \nI washed my hands well in hot water and returned to the table for the arm massage. I noticed that my nails were jagged but I did not bring it to her attention. I wanted out. I paid the bill and rushed home to use anti biotic ointment.\nThis salon is very unprofessional. The technicians cannot communicate comfortably with clients. There isn't a protocol for cleaning the instruments even though they do have the machine there. There are no name tags. They wear street clothes. There is no relief from the stench. They put on music near the end of my experience but there was no relaxation possible with the TV on. This was not a pleasant experience and definitely not a safe one. This salon needs someone intelligent and client focused to turn it around.

Case: I give the star to the employees only but SAMs sucks when it comes to clothing for larger people same with walmart sorry but we are a larger nation and big people need cloths too I believe the also discriminate against larger people when they charge more and don't carry sizes that fit most large people. Get on the band wagon and treat us big people equal!!!!

Case: No, I simply cannot put in a good review for Miracle Mile. \nA coworker recommended this place to me. Actually, two coworkers did.\nHowever, upon inspection of my pie right before I was about to eat it, I noticed that there was mold in it.\n\nYes, mold.\n\nSorry Miracle Mile, your fries were bland and while your chicken tenders were decent, I can't forgive mold in a pie. I did take a picture of it so I will be adding it to this review as soon as I can.\n\nWho knows if I will get my 2.95 for moldy pie back.\n\n*ETA\nMM has been notified and I am to receive a gift certificate for my 2.95. I was given the option of returning it but it's over a 40 min drive.

Considreing the above, classify the following: We stopped by here whole touring Carnegie Mellon in late June. This place is a hidden gem. The food was tasteful.  My teenage kids loved their noodles,  chicken and above all, their egg rolls. Theor portions are decent. Their service was quick. I highly recommend this place if you are on the area!
