Text - Love this place!  If you're in a rush then don't go.  It may be crowded as in many other reviews.  There is a reason for that.  As far as portion size goes it's more than fine.  The food is eclectic with an as close as you can get island style.  Those from the Aina understand this place.

Text - Overall not a good experience on any front.  \n\nThe food is overpriced.   $6 for a large orange juice is ridiculous and it didn't taste that great.   The quality of the food is not adequate.  The toast was over toasted and burnt.  The fruit looked over-ripe almost to the point of rotting.    When we pointed this out to the waitress, nothing happened.   Overall very disappointing. \n\nThere are much better choices in the area.   Stay Away

Text - The Valley's light rail caused a lot of controversy when it was voted into effect (by a landslide), while it was being constructed (with a movement to stop the light rail, even while streets were torn up to install it) and now that it's being used and beating expectations (being called a waste of money).\n\nTruth be told, it's public transportation and like all forms of transportation it's just another option for getting around. If you want to spend a day around Central Phoenix you can purchase an all-day pass while saving gas. If you want to go to one place in particular and want to get there in a hurry, you may want to use a car. If you want to get to one place in particular and don't want to pay more money for parking and/or anticipate heavy traffic congestion afterward, the light rail is a great option.\n\nNo, it isn't a subway system, but one opposing argument to the rail is its expense. Given Phoenix' granite and caliche base, plus it's sprawl, a subway would've cost significantly more and would've taken significantly longer to build. Yes, it has limited access. A by-product of this age of instant gratification is impatience, and unfortunately, building the damn thing takes A LOT of time. We won't wake up and have an extensive system, ever. The line is exactly as Valley Metro calls it: a STARTER line. More lines are scheduled to be built and it will take time until other lines feed into it and give more of the Valley light rail access. Every city with rail transportation had to start with one line at one time or another.\n\nMost complaints about the system are more or less people complaining just to complain. It's modern, comfortable, doesn't have that \""rat in a tunnel\"" feel subways do, and gives people other options of getting around.

Text - There's really nothing to rave about this place except how terrible their service is. \n\nMy husband, mother-in-law, and I were really hungry because our flight was late and wanted to check out something nice.  We went to Caesar's Palace because it was a short walking distance from our hotel.  Initially, we were going to go to Planet Hollywood except the wait was too long and figured we should try something else.  Across from Planet Hollywood Restaurant was Joe's Stone Crab.  My husband and I tried the restaurant the last time we were in Vegas so I figured I'd check on Yelp to see what other eateries were in the plaza.  I noticed P.J. Clarke's New York Chophouse had a 4-stars rating so we decided to check it out\n\nAs we approached the restaurant, the hostess was really friendly and went over the menu with us.  At that moment on we were pretty sold and wanted to try it.  She escorted us to our table and we were told our servers would be right with us.  A few minutes passed by and we were shocked that none of the servers that were standing by the bar looking at us didn't seem to acknowledge us at all.  We made eye contact and still NOTHING. \n\nWe decided to get up and leave and the hostess asked us what was wrong.  So we told her that none of the servers acknowledged us..  She looked shocked and went to talk to her colleagues but we stormed off and decided to spend our money else where.\n\nI really don't have much tolerance for rude people and bad service so I will never go back here.  Not even a look.

Classify the case below.
This was the worst dining experience I've had in a while. I ordered my steak very well no pink - you can't see anything because it is so dark. Luckily I filled up on my soup (a whopping $8 for a cup of soup) and some bread and potatoes. Back in the room I looked at my steak and it was rear.. I thought it tasted a little off.. \n\nThe doorman downstairs was super rude. Tried to make us wait in line to go to the club, we explained we had a dinner reservation, then he snapped we had to wait and pay, I was like no - for a dinner reservation. Finally he let us go. The noise from the club is so loud you can't hear yourself think. You can't even read the menus our waiter had a flashlight for us to see. On the way up you have to cram in this little elevator with all the people who want to go to the club, so most of them are already drunk and annoying. \n\nThe food is overpriced and flavorless. My $60 steak wasn't even made right. I emailed the hotel (which we were staying in) and the manager said I should have brought it to their attention at the time. I explained it was dark we couldn't see, we weren't happy with the whole experience and just wanted to get out of there. He said he'd remake me a steak if I came to the restaurant to pick it up. I asked if he could send it to our room - a big fat no. Then I asked if we could get a gift card because we were leaving the next day. Again no. I'll upload a picture of my wonderfully undercooked steak. He did offer next time we're in Vegas I can come get my steak. Seriously? Like he's even going to work there or remember.\n\nThis was not only the worst dining experience, but it was our anniversary as well. What a way for us to waste $200+ on food I didn't even eat. I suggest going to another steak joint - it's Vegas there are hundreds!
