What a concept! Take a cookie cutter national hotel chain, mix it with personalized service, boutique hotel amenities, unique world 2k design and Voila! you end up with ALoft Hotels. I'm so glad the W decided to launch this chain. The idea of a small chain hotel with more then one person working the desk at any hour (you would think its not novel) provides for a great experience. During our stay we were able to see a local artist showing in the main lobby, beer tastings, and live music. It is a chain hotel with a boutique mentality and its fantastic. I just wish their coffee was stronger.

Ritz Carlton Charlotte
Category: Hotels
Neighborhood: First Ward
The Ritz is known.. well for being the Ritz. The name pretty much says it all, superstar service, creature comforts, all that one could ask for when traveling. From the moment you check in you will be known, you will be greeted and it feels like they really do want to remember your name. Service for me was exceptional, Jim gave me a tour of my rooms amenities as well as the hotels, Court took great care of the cars we had in Valet, and In-Room dining food was delicious. Especially, when my party and I were able to order dinner & drinks 14 floors up, from the Aqua Lounge Menu. After doing some laps in the pool we felt we deserved it. I hope everyone at the Ritz-Carlton knows how much I enjoyed my stay.

I grew up in NY, so whenever I go back I think " how in the world did this happen?" regarding times square...
Now there is seating in the middle of the road, pedestrian walkways and everything is illuminated!
Its nice and full of consumerism, it just feels like an outdoor mall now. So if you like that kind of thing, and you like sports, hit up the ESPN zone.
Its a chain, with predictable menus' and tv's everywhere, but the staff was really nice and attentive and the food came out right on time.
They had these dreamseats, next to our table that you could sit in (as if you were at home) order food, recline, put your beer in the cup holder and watch any of the 30 screens going. Our table had a little audio splitter where we could pick what feed we wanted to hear.
We kept it on mute, but loved the Sudden Death Brownie.

My very dear friend lives on the same block as Sofia (formerly known as S'Agapo) as the restaurant still wears the name of its old incarnation on its outside awnings.
On a wonderful evening we decided to give them a try and what a great dinner we had! Everyone was extremely gracious with us, the hostess, the busboy, even the owner took the time to come to our table and have a nice chat.
We ordered the lamb chops, shrimp, lemon potatoes, and spinach. We were so happy with our meal that we will be returning soon!

I'm conflicted. A group of us went out for the evening and decided to try this place on a recommendation. I ordered the Pork Trio, Truffled Mashed Potatoes, and Asparagus Flan. The Potatoes were a bit runny, but everything else was delicious, (even the runny potatoes were tasty).
That's the good part. I felt horrible, because we went for Miami spice and everyone else ordered off that menu.
I cannot speak for everyone in my party, but I will say that food was sent back, meals left untouched, and nothing offered in lieu.
Had I dined alone, they would've received a better rating but based on the service my friends received, I cannot.

Whenever I'm on this side of town during the morning hours, I make it a point to stop by.
I'm originally a New Yorker, and that meant as a child I spent alot of time going into places like this with my dad to pick up Knishes.
It's diner counter and classic decor, make you feel right at ease, that is if the sweet ladies behind the counter didn't right as you walked in.
It has a great staff, smiles and fast service.
My favorite is also the pumpernickel and nova (someone else mentioned it) and well, its delish.
I wish I lived closer.

I have lived in the Gables area for almost ten years and this place is walking distance!
I have gone from post college to grown up and still find that taking people here for breakfast is a win win situation.
The decor is that there is none.
The floor is usually dirty.
There are no reservations and no hostess.
The IS always water in your cup, a friendly waitress who remembers your name if you tell her, delicious cuban food, and even better cafe con leche.
I am such a fan of this restaurant, everyone who has ever stayed with me, visited Miami, or has been within earshot knows that I love it.
YUM YUM, when my family visits from Orlando, they actually stop there before getting to my house.
Sometimes, they even call to see if I want anything...

I love the breakfast here.
I loathe that they only serve breakfast til 11:30am.
That is all.

It was charming. I stayed here right before Christmas of last year and what a lovely time! Everyone went out of their way to help our party.
My room was spacious and the bed was extra comfy.
What i remember most is sitting by the front window and watching the animatronic Christmas scene play out for the passersby.
I'd love to stay there again.

Red Koi Thai & Sushi Lounge

What an amazing place to spend some of your time. The ambiance is sweet without being overbearing, the service is friendly and the food is delicious.
I was lucky enough to host a party in the upstairs lounge in the middle of June and what a treat! We had more then enough food for everyone, drinks came out on time and the owners took care to come by and ask us how we liked everything, and if there was anything else they could do.
You get the sense that they really care about their service and the experience you have while you are there.
Thumbs way up! from me.. and I hear they are going to start having a Karaoke night! Fun fun!
