Anita's New Mexico Style Mexican Food
Category:

I have been here before and great value for money and food seems very genuine. My friend ordered the Enchilada Mexicana and you can't go wrong with that.
Cold food during lunch is unforgivable. I think this experience is unusual and maybe they were short staffed today. Taste is good. If they were not busy I would asked them to heat the food up and be satisfied.

A haircut usually is a chore for me and W salon made it a pleasant ritual. I was in the are and thought it a good reason to visit this place that I had heard from friends today. Very neat and upscale in appearance. Nice welcome and the shampoo was almost like a massage of the head and very soothing. Nargis cut my hair and also provided me with tips on care. With tip I pad $33 probably a little over what I pay but definitely worth it. I see a lot of reviews on Yelp for a foot massage and maybe I will try that is I am in the are again or if they open more branches. Several people who were having a haircut at the same time seemed relaxed and happy which is a good sign. Now I need a place that does nails as well ;)

It's a very busy restaurant with free valet parking. Service was very friendly and seemed to know the menu thoroughly. The restaurant has music great for relaxing and almost comfortable for conversation.
We ordered appetizers - Stuffed mushrooms, Spicy Chipotle Shrimp Flatbread, Chicken Tortilla soup and Wasabi beets. Nice wine list.
The restaurant missed twice - the second glass of wine did not come in time so we cancelled that. The tortilla soup was supposed to be a bowl size but a cup was given. The waiter noticed that very quickly and apologized.
Dessert is a nice small size and a lot of variety. Definitely will go again if I can. Seems to be a new place and reservations recimmended.

This restaurant still continues to amaze and has recently introduced a $8.95 lunch special that includes a sop, salad and 2 sushi rolls ( 2 into 6 pieces) And that makes a great meal and you can take out some of it . If you prefer a Bento box that is till an excellent choice

Great lunch experience bento box with Chicken Tempura, susahi and a soup , excellent value for $10 , if i work from home this is going to be my lunch hangout.
I have been to Bageltowne deli in the mornings meeting people and it is a nice friendly neighborhood restaurant. Today I was wowed by a simple gesture. I usually never have more than a cup of coffee. Today I asked for a "small coffee" and after finishing it I was in the mood for another one. I went to the counter and asked for another coffee and paid for it. After I told the owner that they could refill my existing empty cup the owner told me that refills were free. Even after I told her it was Ok to charge me she voided the receipt and gav me my free refill.
This is great service. I thought the gesture was good. They could have just taken my moneyThe owners seem to know the regulars and what they have.
The one time I had bagels they were great too

We went on a Sunday afternoon with a group of folks attending a conference. Unlike La Madeline next door, this restaurant was not crowded.
Tips for the restaurant:
a) Do not present the menu with weekday lunch specials if you do not serve them on Sundays.
b) Sunday lunch is a lean time and it felt like there was less supervision in the restaurant leading to a bit of slow service
Food was great and for food this restaurant should get 31/2 stars. I would go back again and live with slow service. It was very friendly and neverthless enjoyed the meal very much.

I went to the Post Office today and there was a line as usual. I was surprised to see a very pleasant lady walk through the line and help and talk to the customers waiting in line. She helped folks with their questions even before they reached the counter.
I was returning a device and after she answered my questions I did not even have to go to the counter. On my asking she told me she was the supervisor there. i regret I did not ask her her name.
We need more people like this doing innovative things. Kudos to this post office.
