Lorena "Oh, poop." L.'s Profile

The parking lot kind of sucked because the spots were so small that so many cars were taking up more than one space or crossing over. It was a tight fit even in Mike's Sentra.

We immediately started with some drinks. The Tunnel of Elms Chardonnay was good and I only had a small taste of the BV Costal Cab, which was ok. You know I tried all of the food offerings. The ahi tuna, eggplant parmesan, and the prime rib were all delicious. The staff was very friendly and was quick to bring our drinks and pick up our plates. Great service!

I tried the hookah for the first time (it was surprisingly good) and enjoyed a blackberry flavored cigar out on the patio. David from Fumar Cigars was awesome. He told us so much about the rolling process and how to properly store our cigars in a tupperware container with lettuce in the shower. Who knew?

It was a little hard to chat inside because the band was a bit loud, but we still met some nice new people. As always, we had a great time.

Thanks Gabi!

I came here to get re-sized. I had a young girl help me out and she measured me and after doing her fancy shmancy bra math she came to the conclusion that I was an A cup. Errr. Wrong. I couldn't get both cups in an A cup bra to cover one of my boobs. I laugh and inform her that she is mistaken and to try again. I even told her what I was and now what I think I am. She proceeds to argue with me as if I have no knowledge about boobs. I wanted to tell her that I have about 10 years more boob experience than she does, but I felt like I was getting nowhere.

Finally, she grew a brain and asked her manager to help her. The manager came over and before she even measured me she told me what size she thought I was (from just a glance) and she was spot on.

I bought a couple of bras, but never again will I ask them for size help. Maybe if they put them through some type of boob training course, but I'd have to see the diplomas on the wall.

I hang out on restaurant patios as much as possible this time of year. This place has a huge covered patio, which is always a plus in AZ. The restaurant is located in a high traffic area, but I really didn't hear any of the noise from the traffic.

I came here for happy hour and it was busy. They have lots of high tops outside, but they quickly fill up if you come around five o'clock. The crowds dwindled down outside by about 6-6:30 pm, which is great if you want to sit on the patio and take advantage of their happy hour.  They have discounts on drinks and apps are 25% off from 3-7 pm  Mon-Fri. They also have other drinks specials that change everyday.

It started getting a little chilly once the sun set, but they started a fire in the outdoor fireplace which was surrounded by some pretty comfortable chairs and a love seat, another plus. Didn't try any food, but the menu looked pretty good (standard American food) and the prices looked reasonable. Looks like a great lunch spot. I'll have to come back and have something to eat next time.

Came to lunch with a bunch of my coworkers. We made reservations on the patio and although it is right next to a busy intersection and the freeway I really didn't notice either. I really liked their patio and all of  trees provided plenty of shade. It was still a little chilly out when we were here for lunch, but they had a fire going in the outdoor fireplace on which made sitting outside much more comfortable.

I wasn't very hungry so I ordered the Dynamite Shrimp Roll, which came with 8 pieces of sushi. It had a little bit of a kick to it which I enjoyed, but I could taste the scallions the rest of the day.  The rest of the table had salads and sandwiches which came in pretty generous portions.

Although they were pretty busy, service was beyond slow. We had finished eating at least 15 minutes (but I'm thinking it was even longer than that) before they brought us the check. This normally wouldn't have bothered me if it had been around the dinner hour, but most people only have an hour for lunch and want to get in and out.

This place is a bit pricey compared to a lot of the other lunch options around the airpark, but it's a nice place to go for lunch or drinks.

I like this location better than the one in Old Town, which is the only other location I've been to. It's a pretty small restaurant, but they also have a small private room in the back for gatherings.

The ingredients all taste fresh and if you sit at a high top in the bar area you can watch them make the pizza. I love watching the prep! We  actually forgot our leftovers after our last visit and one of the waiters came out to give them to us. So nice!

If you're lucky you may find parallel parking spot right out front, but there's also more parking in a big lot just to the west of the restaurant. And the best part is you can walk off your meal by strolling around the shops.

Ugh, this place was so cheesy. It's like they tried to make a really trendy bar with a budget of $100. Trading Spaces gone horribly wrong.

The mirror at the table we were sitting at was broken, there were uncomfortable clear plastic chairs to sit in, a long velour/velvet (I really don't know what this material was) couch, techno music. Aaahhh! Why did I come here?

And after all of that, the drinks are expensive.

The outside patio looked nice, but I never made my way out there.

I won't be back. Too bad because this is in a good location in Old Town.

Mike and I had no plans on Christmas Eve and we were so excited. We had 3 family events planned this week each on a different day, so we specifically indicated that we were doing nothing Christmas Eve, but relaxing and enjoying each others company. And it was great!

Came here to see a movie Christmas Eve and we enjoyed the theater very much. The lobby, theater and bathrooms were all very clean. The seats were comfortable. There are a few different chain restaurants throughout the mall and the mall food court is right next to the theater so you can stop and pick up a quick bite before you head in to see a movie.

I've been here a couple of times before and had the same great experience. And they always have a lot of registers open at the snack bar so I've never had to wait in line as

Ok, apparently I am one of the few people who doesn't find Family Circus creepy. But even if it did, it wouldn't stop me from coming here.

The portions here are big enough to share, especially if you stop by for an after dinner treat. And they have so many things to choose from and everything is so good. The atmosphere is bright and this place is usually loud and crowded. It's definitely worth a stop and it's in a great location in Old Town.

Perfect way to end the night after taking a stroll at the Scottsdale Art Walk on a Thursday night.

I love this place. I visited the Desert Ridge location earlier in the year and really liked it, but was disappointed that there was not another location closer to my home. Well now there is. Woo hoo!

There's lots of parking directly across the street from the store. And they always have several registers open so even on a busy weekend day, you usually only have one other person in front of you in line. Pretty good selection and stock.

They now charge $0.10 for wine tastings (tried 3 wines) and they have them on Fridays (12-6 pm), Saturdays (11-6 pm), and Sundays (12-5 pm). They have a table set up in the middle of the store where you show your ID and drop a dime into the jar. They had a beer tasting going on at the same time. I wasn't interested in that so I didn't check out the dates, times, and cost for that. Sorry!

And the best part is there's actually people to help you here unlike some other big places like this that I've visited. Where there isn't an employee in sight.

I love Liberty Market. I grew up in Gilbert and remember when this was a small grocery store. I've been wanting to check this place out since the conversion and I'm so glad I finally stopped by.

It was perfect. This place just feels like home. Casual, but warm. When we walked in my friend and I were lost and didn't know where to start. Luckily one of the staff quickly handed us menus and told us where to order.

I had a couple of caramel iced lattes and the Liberty Bowl. I loved both. The Liberty Bowl came with 4 big meatballs in marinara sauce and and two slices of toasted bread. It was so hard narrowing down my choice because there were so many delicious looking items on the menu and the baked goods display kept calling my name, but I resisted. Next time I think I'll just give in and have a slice of red velvet or carrot cake, or a cup cake or a slice of zucchini bread or a sticky bun. So much to choose from. I would love to come back here and have a coffee and sit and enjoy the atmosphere at the espresso bar.

Loved all the different themes in the bathroom stalls. You have to check each one out. Joe was there and stopped by each table to see how everyone was doing. We spent so much time here chatting and catching up. It's a great place to come and hang out. I will be back soon.
