Mindy "~M" Y.'s Profile

I'm not 100% sure that this is the correct one [should be near Cracker Barrel]. My sister and I went to Nail Dynasty and it was GREAT! The staff is attentive and professional. We left feeling truly pampered for a 1/3 of what we would be charged in New York.

If I live here, I would go weekly.

The good:

I stayed here for 4 days for my sister's wedding and most guests were very happy with this property. This is indeed a beautiful resort for special occasions.

The staff is friendly, on top of everything, and eager to please. They will do what they can to make sure that you have a wonderful stay.

The food here is solid. The breakfast buffet is great!

It's very low-key, a great place to relax... You can veg out by the pool around-the-clock. No one will bother you as long as you don't bother them.

The bad:

This massive place could be laid out better and each room could be furnished in a smarter way.

The yoga classes are 1/2 hour long! They are definitely NOT for all levels.

The spa doesn't do hair and it badly needs a make-over. The layout/flow is silly and should be redone.

The ugly: The wine from this vineyard.

The 3 for $10 dessert deal is a steal! Coming from New York, I was pleasantly surprised by Noche.

Great ambiance, solid execution on food on most dishes, and excellent value. I really enjoyed my crab cakes. The sangria was great!

Great beers! I love their strange munch menu as well. The shrimp and grits is truly delish! This is one of my favorite spots in the hood.

Despite the wait, the pizza is really good. They turn your pizza around pretty quickly. It's a very no-frill dining experience that leaves you little to complain about.

OK, I confess... I'm there 4 days a week! Great value, generous portions with super fresh ingredients... I'm addicted to the kimchi hero with barbecue chicken and the pho real sandwich.

This is a 24/7 deli with a very efficient sandwich counter and yes, they deliver groceries too!

p.s. Now that you know that I go there very often, please don't stalk me.

I live down the street and I'm sorry to say that I find it overrated... This tiny place fails on value. As an expert on eating pork, I was disappointed that what appeared to be crispy pork skin was actually not edible at all =(

If you are celebrating a special occasion or is just looking for a treat, try Degustation. We had the 10 course meal that started at 11 and ended at 1 in the morning and what a fantastic experience it was!

Superb service, great [intimate] atmosphere, innovative techniques, fresh ingredients, lovely portions... Degustation's open kitchen delivers a memorable meal that give you a bang for your buck.

I am a spoiled brat with Mexican food. There are so many cheap/great Mexican joints in the city, don't you think? I was excited to try "the best" Mexican out East, but I'm very sad to say that these baja-style tacos were overall disappointing.

The following were worth a mention though:
- 4.5 for the tortilla soup
- Casual, picnic style dining concept [Cute... similar to Hampton Chutney]
- Great sauces
- Fresh ingredients
- I like it that for the bathroom, you have to go through a super clean and efficient kitchen

Better than the one in soho, can you believe it? Fresh food, great ambiance. I love everything about this place!
