Arthur at this AT&T store got me set up and back to normal after some mishaps at another (non-AT&T) retailer.

He did everything the right way, and listened to what I had been through and was FULLY capable of fixing the messed up work in my account.  

He was very patient with my questions, and walked me through my options and went step-by-step to get me back to having a phone and getting things good-to-go.

Hell yes!  Jefferson Market was always great place to get gourmet groceries.  The check out staff is very pleasant (and funny).  

Stay awake from the lure of Whole Foods.

I came here with my boo to do some causual Sunday grocery shopping.  For an overall better experience than the one in Union Square I award a single higher point (I have a review on that location too).

Everything went swimmingly until I approached check-out.  By now, I (and other yelpers with similar comments) really should know better to avoid the pavlovian gut-wrentching reaction to this process.  Somehow I found myself with a full basket of $70 dollars of groceries (that part is fine, the packaged food and fresh produce here is good), but the snide woman at the apparent "express" checkout totally called me out in front of "the children of the corn" that formed behind me.  

Here's a tip lady  - obviously you could tell it was my first time at this location and instead of announcing that I should wander off somewhere else to check out, you could have just pointed in the direction I needed to be.  Again, the robotic, conformist children of the corn that were behind me in line were no help either.

To note, the check out woman in the supposed "real" line for people actually shopping for food (and not buying niblets to munch on while giving their dog a hot-water enema) was very nice.

I say "eff" Whole Foods all together and stay with Fresh Direct.

I enjoy eating healthy and am well-read on real nutrition and issues with big corporate farming (and big organic farming)... I preface with this so you know I'm not knocking the actual groceries at Whole Foods but rather the bad shopping experience created by the customers.  

The majority of people shopping here get right in your way, cut you off in the isle, are rude and are obnoxious during an already bad check-out experience (and I'm glad others are yelping about it.)  The only saving grace here is the staff who probably hate the spolied bastards shopping here even more than I ever will.  In support of buying decent food and supporting the workers, there is nothing good to say about this location.

We found this store by accident one day and have been going back ever since.  The owner and staff are very friendly and occasionally are  sampling interesting wines or liquors.  It's great neighborhood store that adds to the quality of life and feeling of connectedness living in Park Slope!

If you like white wines definitely try the Viña Aljibes!

Clemen's is a winner because of location, fast delivery, and nice staff.  I recommend ordering something with which you're familiar since this place is obviously more traditional than a taco chain.  Get specific with your instructions and ask about the menu before you wonder what it is that you're getting.  This is a good place for small groups of friends or families to stop by and REALLY good for take out.

I've been a volunteer of the clinic since 2000 and the way they care for clients is amazing.  People are valued, respected and walk away more educated.  There are also special groups that use the unused space in the clinic so please contact us if you might need to find a place for your particular group meetings!

This place was good and I have to note that the manager in charge does a GREAT job of funneling away people that are sneaking in out of the cold without intentions of ordering a drink.  I was recently here for a networking event and the atmosphere was perfect since there was a lot of room to walk around and escape if needed.  Kudos for being a lively mid-week bar in NYC that doesn't cram everyone in to the max!
