I enjoyed the food but found the ambiance seriously lacking. The server/cook was rather scruffy and the staff, including the chef were eating in the dining room between serving patrons.
Decahedron wrote about Panda Garden Buffet
This place ranks in the top 2% of all restaurants I've dined at - The price is ultra reasonable, the selection is more than enormous and the taste of everything is "Out Of This World" delicious - the staff is super friendly and there at a moments notice to help you in any way they can - all the food is at the temperature it should be at and refilled Always before it runs out - A great place to take the family OR business associates - I've never seen any disruptive activity there, and you can get whatever you want to go by the pound, - 10 Stars

I went there with my family. The people in the bar and outside seemed to be having a good time. Service was really slow. The server messed up our order and the food was not good.

What happen to the crust we used to go to Savoy's at least twice a week now I don't think we will even be back the crust is hard and you can't even used a fork on it to bad it used to be a good pizza but not anymore and the place was not even busy for a friday night it would be standing room only so that tells me something is wrong with the pizza!!!
MarvinGunnick wrote about Ginger Hop
The food was bland and forgettable. The service was attentive. The space is nice but the decor was bland and forgettable, matching the food. Overall unimpressed. There are better places to enjoy good food.
Jennmartin wrote about Gold Nugget Tavern & Grill
Our family has enjoyed brunch after church on Sundays, my husband & I enjoy date night up at the gorgeous spacious bar and our children love a burger after their hockey games! Dinners for us include a tasty turkey burger, fresh wedge salad and lovely conversations with the locals and staff. We have yet to have a bad experience at the Gold Nugget (and don't plan to!). Their amazing fresh menu includes such wide variety of choices, with soup inspirations by Joel, mouth watering desserts and an atmosphere that's conducive for any occasion, whether enjoying the Kentucky Derby or celebrating our son's 13th Birthday! We love the NEW and IMPROVED Gold Nugget and are grateful to the owners/developers of the Glen Lake Area for continuing to persevere to make our neighborhood appealing and forward thinking.

Ike's = perfection. It's the best place to get together with friends in a Rat Pack, New York-ish style eatery. All the food is fab but you cannot go wrong with any of their burgers. I recommend the lobster corndogs, seafood louie salad and the congac alexander (an awesome dessert drink).

My wife and I were amazed by the food and the service, I don't like to write reveiws........all I'll say is my wife and I will be going back, I can't beleive I didn't know of Charlie's beforehand.......I can't stop telling my friends about this place!!! Truly notable beverage menu with hand crafted cocktails featuring artisan liqueurs and house-infused spirits. Try something from their extensive whiskey list (over 40) or the huge wine list. Wines are priced only $15 over cost and many of these wines are less than you can get at a liquor store. Atmosphere is very relaxing and the live music in the pub was a great after dinner treat. Staff is spot on and I can tell they have had some serious training.
Madisoncali wrote about Crave
I just ate here for the first time a couple weeks ago. I went with a friend who likes sushi (I do not) so we chose it because it had something for both of us. Let me tell you, when I read the reviews on this site, I was very surprised! We had excellent service, great food, and a really nice night! The seared scallop appetizer was to die for, and we split a pizza that was done perfectly. The only downside, to me, was that it was a little noisy (mall crowd, I supposed), and the drinks were a little too pricey. But the ginger pear martinis were delicious, so I'll forgive the price. Overall, I thought it was way better than anything I expected at the MOA. Next time maybe my friend will get to try the sushi :)

Everytime I have been to Risottos I have tried something different, and it all has been excellent! It is a must try!
multimediva wrote about Ingredients Cafe
We got married in a three-minute ceremony at the Stillwater courthouse (we're into the marriage, not the wedding.) My older daughter offered to babysit my younger daughter so we could go out for dinner. Ingredients served up a cajun-style mussels appetizer that was out of this world delicious. I thought I didn't like mussels because they usually have a rubbery texture and taste fishy. Our appetizer from Ingredients was perfectly cooked, as was my scallops on fennel apple drizzled warm salad. It was as beautiful as it was creative. My new hubby ordered the mozzarella stuffed chicken with garlic mashed potatoes (guess what-he's a meat and potatoes man) and was extremely happy. Our server recommended a superb bottle of chardonnay. Thanks, Ingredients, for an evening we will never forget.
sfleener wrote about Lucia's Restaurant and Wine Bar
The Metromix team sent Amy the intern off in style with a "thank you " lunch at Lucia's. Easily one of the coziest, best balance, soul satisfying lunches we've had. Great seasonal American fare (with some classic bistro twists). We had the cured ham and spinach risotto, the crispy fish cakes and the braised chicken with white bean cassoulet. All the dishes were stunning an cozy - made us all do our own personal "Happy Food" dance. To top things off, we had dessert (gasp! At lunch!) and the flourless almond cake was decadent and silky without being overly rich. All in all, it was fun playing "The Ladies Who Lunch" for a day - we can see why they do it at Lucia's!
ladyluck7 wrote about Market Bar-B-Que
My family and I went to Market BBQ as first-timers after the Holidazzle. With 6 people in our group, there was a lot of variety in our choices and there were raves all around. We started with onion rings and the oink-oink platter. The onion rings are to die for! The batter is crisp, not crunchy and slightly moist, not greasy. They were perfect. The potato skins were also great, the rest of the platter (mozz sticks, calamari, etc.) were pretty standard...but still delicious. For entrees, the boys of the group (3) split the whole rack of pork spare ribs. There were definitely enough for 3 with sides (toast, the BEST coleslaw EVER!, and fries). They loved the ribs but wished there was a little more meat on those bones. The rest of the group had chicken sandwiches (so tender and perfectly spiced) and salmon - weird I know at a BBQ joint but good to try something a little out of the ordinary. It was good, not great, but very well cooked. Oh yes, and we tried the Big Squealer. It is an extremely potent rum punch. It's like a sweeter version of a long island ice tea and you definitely need to share the drink! Overall, this is a fantastic restaurant that everyone needs to try. It feels down home but special. There's definitely some magic in that place!
suedee wrote about Original Pancake House
This used to be our favorite breakfast place, although we go for brunch since it's a little pricey. The waitress we had last Friday was incredibly patronizing. When we ordered black coffee she made quite a fuss about the fact that we wanted it black (ooh you must be tough people - kill anyone this morning?) My husband and I are in our 50s and she told us she was "proud of us" for cleaning our plates. She really crossed the line between friendly and annoying. It's too bad because the food is very good and the atmosphere is pleasant.

Drinks are well priced but the staff are not very personalable. The bartender was rude to myself and my husband. I was not impressed with the food, it was nothing great and the side choices were lacking other options.

Great Teas, Great Service, Great Management. Their teas are out of this world in many ways. You gotta try their teas.

I absolutely LOVE the food at Red Moon. I try to order something new each time and I am always blown away by the quality of the food. The service is friendly and the price can't be beat!
