Awesome guacamole and margaritas

Great place for snacks and margaritas. The staff is generally very good, very fast, and they are dog friendly. The guacamole is made fresh, and might be the best I've had. It's good. They also sell their own salsas for take home, and they are excellent. Word of warning, watch out for the margaritas. We get the frozen, and while they taste good, they don't indicate how strong they are to the tongue. And 2 in, you will be feelin' it.

Never knew how much I really liked Thai food

If you like Thai food, this place is awesome. If you don't like Thai food, this place may change your mind. The food is expertly prepared, consistently delicious, and the curry is out of this world. Very relaxed atmosphere and a great place to slow down for a freat meal. The takeout is great too.

Just go there

If you like beer, wine, and/or champagne, and have an adventurous palate, it's awesome. The people are great. The selection is unbeatable, and it's easy to get in and outta there. For you beer connoisseurs, stop by here after your visit to 5 Seasons next door so you can bring a decent beer home with ya!

All the LA Fitness clubs are getting worse

I'm a 5 year member. I started at another club. When I joined, I liked it. But as they grow, the management is becoming nonexistent. This particular club has a revolving door of management that seem to grab on to their "power positions" and become jockish douchebags. They allow the club to go to crap but then get upset if you want to keep your bike inside the club. If you have any complaints, they treat you like garbage and otherwise disrespect any member who isn't there to be a lughead, self-infatuated, sex maniac. I mean, I cannot recommend that you join Colony Square or some other club enough. Oh, this was the club where the parking deck collapsed too. Before that, the parking deck was staffed in the evenings by this barely there, shape of a human who basically was always on the phone, too busy to effectively move cars through the one exit to the parking deck.

Best Beer, Awesome Food

A lot of people say the portions are small but what they must not be aware of is that the food is expertly crafted, either locally grown, organic, or market fresh that day. Besides, when you order lamb for example, you don't get the whole lamb. It's not like a subsidized, industrialized steak operation. I guess what I am trying to say is if you prefer quantity over quality, go somewhere else for food. This is actually good for you food at realistically sized portions. There are no Big Gulp beverages or Steaks so big they're free if you eat the whole thing. Go to Friday's for that kind of stuff. Now that that is out of the way, I want to say the atmosphere is great. Very casual and upscale at the same time. The owners and managers are there and are friendly and will sit with you and ask how things are and it's clear they are genuinely concerned. The beer is adventurously designed and very tasty. They will definitely have at least one beer you'll love. I generally like all of them. There is also a full bar and a great wine selection. The patio is great too when the weather is agreeable. I highly recommend this place.

Serious Inspection, Friendly Folks

In the process of buying our first home, it took a long time before we got to the inspection. Some people told me stories about inspections where the person will come in, eyeball around for a half hour or so, pass the place and leave. This was not the case with Home Probe. Mr Rael Levin came out to the property, was there early, took photographs, made a detailed report, and answered every question along the way, peppering the conversation with advice and conversation. Call Home Probe if you want an honest assessment of any property you're interested in. I know I will.

Great Bike Shop

These guys have top-notch bikes. They will help to educate you about their bikes, your bike, any bike, and biking in general- casual or pro. They also offer free tune-ups on any bike you buy from them for as long as you own it. Whether you need a repair or a whole new bike, check here first.

Clean, nice, no silly saver cards

This is my favorite grocery store. Most of the people there have worked there a while and they are always friendly. The store is clean and the food is always fresh, and well-priced without a silly saver card.

Don Pablo's, A chain, a staple, a crutch

In Columbus Ohio, where I am from, there were a few of these. Having one so close has been great. It's an excellent place to get food you know you'll like, for a price that's better than fair most of the time, and they have a great patio and usually friendly, top-notch service. The chicken chile and portabella fajitas are great!

Speakeaqsy are thieves

Speakeasy lied to me time and again. They were eager to take my credit card and sign me up. When it came time to provide service and support, they failed at every level and their management was absolutely not interested in resolving the issue. These guys like to take your money, but you'll get nothing but disappointment and sass in return.
