If I could give this store zero stars, I would.
I went here after I got treated like a dumb broad at Home Depot.
I needed a seats and springs set for a 2 handle faucet. I could only find sets for single handle. I rang the bell for an employee to come help me.
He gave me one set that I had already picked up that was for single handle. He told me single and double were different. He then proceeds to show me 4 additional sets, all for single handles. I tell him "I need one for double handle!". He tells me to buy all 4 and bring back the ones I don't need. I tell him "they are all for single handle!". He then hands me a contractor pack of FIFTY and tells me to buy them (they were also for single handle) at which point, I lose my mind and tell him that Lowe's and Home Depot are killing me with this damn faucet business and that I'll find some mom and pop shop that will actually freaking help me! OMG. I was so furious.
Tomorrow, I'm going to an Ace hardware where maybe they will be able to help me which will be a welcome change and I will stop having a leaky faucet. And hopefully my next review of a hardware store will be positive.

This Home Depot has some really unhelpful employees in plumbing.
I was treated like a dumb broad even though I knew exactly what I needed (and have fixed plumbing issues before). I don't need to be talked down to, especially when I know wtf I am talking about and need (just couldn't locate it on the shelves).
This isn't the first time I have experienced this at this Home Depot. Fortunately, I rarely need help finding things.

The food, which has previously been really great was just "meh". ( i had not been here in almost 2 years). It seemed really americanized (I think it has non indian owners). The food was too hot. I like spicy food, but this was spicy with no flavor, it was all heat. We had garlic naan and honestly, I've had better garlic naan out of the frozen food section of the grocery store. It was not good.

The service was really bad. They were really busy, but we hardly ever saw our waitress and seemed to be waiting around A LOT. We had to wait a long time for anyone to come and get our order. Then we were without water. Then we had to wait for our check. Then we had to wait for them bring our card back.

Overall, not a great experience. I'll be getting my indian fix somewhere else and avoiding bhojanic.

I went here to see a friend play. The place is small. I think there was a part in the back with a DJ and a place to dance but it was really early and I don't think that part was open yet and I didn't go back there.

The staff seemed friendly enough, the drinks were cheaper than a lot of places and the owner was going around taking pictures and just making sure everyone was having a good time.

Overall, it was a nice place with with a more mature crowd (people in their 30s) and I will definitely be going back there.

Great drinks and great staff.
There are lots of comfy couches and chairs to sit in and hang out while you drink your coffee. In warmer months, they also have a patio.
With a purchase you get free internet that is actually pretty fast.
Overall, a nice neighborhood coffee shop.

.....This is now in McDonough and not Rex.....

We went here for my MIL's birthday because she wanted to watch people do karaoke and they have it here on Friday nights. I could tell that this was not going to remotely near authentic as soon as I walked in the door.
The ONLY remotely mexican decorations (and I do use this term loosely) is giant jesus on a cross and a strand of chile peppers. The rest of the place is boring and they have a big screen TV and a ton of smaller tvs around the dining room.
I did not see anyone who was not a gringo. The owners I found out are also gringos. But apparently, they are gringos who don't know crap about mexican food.

In a nutshell, it sucked. I would never, ever go back here. I really wish I never, ever had to eat OTP.

When I go to a place that is going to be unauthentic, I always try to order fajita nachos or something like that because they aren't really mexican and they are really hard to screw up...or so I thought...so here are their big problems from what I experienced...

1) The salsa was really watery and and was basically tomato sauce with a little kick. No real flavor. A jar of Pace would have been better.
2) The cheese sauce had no flavor. At all.
3) The fajita nachos were pretty average. They didn't have a lot of flavor because they used the same flavor less cheese on them

I have family that lives in Henry county so I find myself OTP quite a bit.

The line to get tickets was LONG and lots of people cutting in line in the kiosks. I was behind a woman with 2 kids and 2 of her friends came and she let them cut. Then a friend at the kiosk next to this one cut too. WTF! A lot of the patrons were just plain rude.

The price for the IMAX was cheaper than Mall of Georgia, but the screen here is smaller. But still...$13 is better than $15.

Two of the people I was with grew up in Forest Park and they said the decor looked like it did 15 years ago. It did look rather dated. The restrooms were kind of dirty and there were no paper towels to be found.

The sound and picture of the movie were great so that's why it's not getting fewer stars.

Baby Jane's Home Cooking

The food was pretty standard southern home cooking. They had the usual fried chicken, mash potatoes, mac and cheese and things like that.

The chicken was pretty tasty except I don't know who cuts the chicken, but I think they use a chainsaw because the ONLY part that you can truly tell what it is, are the legs. I got what I thought was a thigh and it was part of a breast. Likewise, the people I was with had pieces they though were breasts and they were thighs, parts of the back and who the hell knows what else.

The only reason I didn't give it to 2 stars was because this place is CHEAP! 6.50 for adults and free sweet tea.

Overall, it was fine, but seriously...they need to find someone to cut the chicken!

Northlake Mall

I live really close to this mall but don't really go there are there aren't a lot of options.
I went there this afternoon trying to find my daughter some shoes. How hard is it to buy shoes for a 2 year old at Northlake? Pretty damn hard as we went into a bunch of stores and I finally gave up. Looks like I'll be going to Perimeter tomorrow.

The Kohl's is ok. They have good prices on kid's clothes so I go here a fair amount because I don't like to spend a lot of money on clothes for the kiddo.
Macy's is ok. I've really only ever gone here for housewares and it's ok, but I did have to go to Lenox for something in what the lady said here was a "weird" color.
Old Navy is ok, but frequently doesn't have a lot in the way of kid's clothes.
Sears is pretty good. I go here for things like yard tools and other tools.
Overall, this mall gets a big meh from me.

We stopped here on the way to a pumpkin patch in Athens. The food was fine, but when you walked in, it had a weird smell, like it smelled overwhelmingly like soap or something. I don't like walking inot a place and having it smell too much like cleaner of any kind (soap, bleach, pine sol etc). It was just really nasty.
