BEST.
DENTIST.
EVER.

Does that tell you how I feel?

The guy is just friendly, cares, and really knows his stuff.  On top of that, they have a great high-tech office & experience -- it was cool!

Personal:
- He is friendly, explains everything,
- They talk about all the options, there's no pressure at all
- They listen, ask questions, are friendly

Tech:
- All the pics are digital, with cool cameras and flat screens - you get to see everything in real time
- They use a pointer and draw and highlight specific areas - very illustrative

My family just moved here and are stoked - we got a great dentist!

Real coffee.

They grind it and brew it one-cup-at-a-time.  They have tons to choose from, but will also ask you your preferences and suggest a coffee to suit your liking.  They are all good, smooth, strong, and tasty.

They do seem to suggest cream & sugar (heavy cream, not half-and-half) -- so it's tasty, but I worry I need lipitor with my coffee.  you can get milk or whatever you like, but cream & sugar is the default.  as someone who has 2% and maybe some SnL normally, it's a much richer cup that I am used to, but man, it's good.

I've had the hazelnut blend, which I didn't like, but that's probably just my personal preference.

They have some baked goods, which I haven't tried.. they also have free wi-fi, which is decent, not super zippy, but hey - it's free.

Call the TSA, this place is the bomb!  :-)

I loved it.  All I had was an amazing veggie burger, with tons of fixings: guac, pepperoncini's, grilled onions, peanut sauce, wasabi aioli -- all on a honey wheat bun.  outstanding!

the family had burgers and everyone was happy too... including the fries.

for dessert, the kids had a vanilla milkshake (sublime!) and a brownie, which the kid wolfed down.

great place, looking forward to returning.

We've been 2x so far and each time has been great!  Their sangria is amazing and full of fruit.  

The guac is awesome and we've had the tuna tartare, also outstanding!

We've had some other dishes, steak, fish, chicken - they were all good.  Good service, cool decor, and good drinks.  Not much to be desired here..

Love this place!  They have like 8 flavors at any given moment and a great selection of toppings -- there's no toppings they don't have!

My personal favorites are peanut butter, cookies & cream and dutch chocolate.  Some of the others are good too and they mix in seasonal ones, like pumpkin.. but those 3 are my staples.

The toppings rule..  I like mochi balls, sno-caps, and graham cracker crust..

You pay per ounce, like $0.47 these days.. so watch the dense heavy toppings!

Also, the yogurt machines dispense at different speeds, so start slow and keep a firm hand on the dispenser.

Lastly, they have a loyalty program, make sure to ask for a card..

Had take-out there a few times.. i'll keep this short

+ Sushi is decent.  Not great, but solid
+ Pretty fairly priced
+ Nice friendly people who work there
+ Some good special rolls.. Crazy Monkey is my favorite

- Not the most flavorful sushi, and their mayo can drown it out
- Soy sauce comes in those little packets, I prefer it in little plastic tubs.. that way it's more fresh and higher quality

We'll hit it for take-out, but I don't know I'd go and sit down there for dinner..

We just went over there with my 2 kids for the first time and really enjoyed it!

I had an outstanding sutffed avocado salad, my wife had a pasta dish, one kid had pizza, the other boy had fish 'n chips.  it was all really good!  i loved the salad, 1/2 an avocado stuffed with tuna over a bed of lettuce.  we also split a side salad of cherry tomatoes with basil - nice!

the kids got ice cream, part of a very good kids menu, and kids activity book - better for kids than i expected.

the service was ok, sort of a 'B.'  but we look forward to going back.

they also have a fresh fish market, which we didn't try, but would like to.

lastly, they are popular - try and make a reservation! (we did)

If you like cupcakes, and who amongst us doesn't -- then get over there.. run, don't walk!  The cupcakes are sublime they are so good!  Lots of different flavors, all better than the last.  We only tried a few, but that leaves more for the next visit!

Nothing fancy to look at, but oh yea, the breakfasts are good!  I've had the pancakes and they are pretty solid.. the kids love it, the OJ os fresh squeezed and great.. we havent tried much, but njoyed what we've had!

I'm the first to review it as a resident.  We were relocated to this area, so stayed there for 6 weeks, yes, 6 weeks!

Overall, great place to stay, especially for extended visits.

We loved it.  Let me break it down:

+ The people who work there were all super friendly.  Friendly to us, friendly to our kids, friendly to our dogs!
+ The breakfast is very nice.  you get tired of it, but there's plenty close-by for when you want a break (e.g. Peets, Good Morning)
+ The dinner happy hour is great.  A beer and some snacks are real nice.  it was better for the kids, but no complaints here
+ The pool is heated and very nice.  our kids loved it
+ The sport court is great - i loved that!
+ underground parking is convenient and safe
+ the internet is fast and works great
+ they have a bbq for all to use!  we used it often.
+ the housekeeping is great, such nice folks
+ walking distance to quite a few places

the few dings:
- the fitness center isnt bad, but the a/c barely works, so the gym functions as a sauna
- the tv selection is ok, the remotes suck.  no HD content, but they spent on HD flatscreens, a pity.
- no unlimited local calling, that's real lame for a long-term place like this
