Falafully Good is gawdawfully bad.
You can always tell when I have transported a shawarma in my car because 24 hours later the car still smells like a souk in Istanbul. I was anticipating trouble when I was halfway home from Falafully Good and was…More »
It would be close to a 5 if it was just about the food. The charcuterie, the mac & cheese, the trout and the sides were all excellent. Unfortunately, the food is only part of the experience.
We got off to a bad start right at the doorway. A Farm…More »

Memo to self: If the restaurant starts with "Mac", immediately turn and flee.
What a nasty chicken shawarma. The chicken was plentiful but bland and seemingly fried to a jerky-like state. With just lettuce, tomato and a little tzatziki, it had as much…More »
Although the restaurant is nicely appointed with a lovely river view, our meal was a total disaster.
Our party of 8 arrived 2 hours before we needed to get downstairs for a concert - a fact we told every Tramonto staff member we interacted with. We…More »

As far as retail sales are concerned, I really love Finest At Sea. Their fish, although on the pricey side, is always extremely fresh. During spot prawn season you will always find a tray of the freshest tails for a reasonable price per pound. They…More »

Falafel Plus, your business practices suck and the person behind the counter is a douchetard.
After reading some positive reviews I really wanted to check out the place. My first visit several weeks ago wasn't fruitful because I arrived in the late…More »

I took my friend out for lunch for her birthday and she asked if we could pick up some sugar-loaded carbs afterward to ease her pain of getting older. Naturally being the obliging friend that I am, I said sure - enter Butter Baked Goods.
The bakery…More »
Well, it was cheap, it was food and it did not make us sick.
We knew we were in trouble when we looked at the menu and saw all of these made up Spanish names for dishes - "Blanito" and "Redondo", and they referred to Mexican Rice as "converted rice…More »
A lot of flash but no substance.
This was our first time at this restaurant and we were immediately taken by the amazing location and view. This was the beginning and end of awesomeness and the only justification for even a 2 star.
We stood cooling our…More »
Yuck. Sometimes even a super-cheap price can't overcome the fact that the food is realllllllly bad.
There wasn't a customer in the place when I arrived shortly before noon. I ordered a slice of spicy chicken, a slice of pesto cheese and a soda. Thank…More »
I've never been a fan of the chain dining experience because I have never had a really good one. And the trend continues....
Two days prior to eating here, I had the opportunity to dine at Charcut and experience Chef Connie DeSousa's pork croquettes,…More »
After a long day traveling we were craving a dinner that was fast, but not fast food. We thought we hit the jackpot when we spotted Saigon Y2K but it proved more of a bust.
I ordered the Pho Ga and my husband ordered the Hu Tieu Saigon Nuoc. We also…More »
I ordered the Spolumbo's Special Italian Panini to go just before closing. After getting to my destination I eagerly unwrapped the sandwich expecting meaty deliciousness. Instead, I got a roll with lettuce, tomato and cheese. Was there Mortadella -…More »
