I have never been to a Five Guys before but after my last visit I would definably would go back.  The burger I had was sort of orgasmic.  The combination of of flavors was enduring and freshness of the burger was something to remember.  I would give it 5 stars but I felt the atmosphere of the place as not visually pleasing.  The whole place felt like some generic dinner somewhere.

I've driven by this place like a zillion times and never even noticed it.  This place is hidden and the only reason I went there is because I got invited for a birthday dinner there.

As soon as walked in I really dug the aesthetic of it; it felt Japanese.  Sushi bar with legit Japanese bros, check; Japanese looking art, check; bright colors of walls, super check; etc.  As a huge fan of Japanese art and culture I appreciate that sort of thing more than most.

The menu there offers a extensive selection that overwhelmed me at first.  Luckily for me the server was patient and diligent with us.  The food arrive in an incredible fashion and everyone's plate looked amazing.  Since this is a BYOB restaurant my friends brought their own wine/spirits and they provided us with wine glasses for all at no cost.

Overall I had a great time there and I would recommend a visit.  The only reason I'm not going for a five rating is because I feel it is missing a "Je ne sais quoi" factor to take it to that level.

"Blasphemy" I mentally screamed when I read that other review.  

Have you ever want Japanese and Chinese food at the same time, well, welcome to Express Wok.  I've been eating here since I moved to West Chester and some of the locals call it "$3 sushi".  I never seen of sushi at that price that was good like in Express Wok but they have a ton of things to chose from.

I had people from all over the country come along and leave with a very positive experience.  The customer service is superb and I can't sing enough praises.

If you ask around here as to where to go for tags and such, 90%* would say, go to Wiggins.  I did and I got the type of service as my old DMV in Delaware; nothing to write home about.

Kyle's the type of place you want to everyone to know it exist.  Kyle owns, manages and operates the place elegantly.   His customer service skills are impeccable and I got the feeling my interest and business weren't brushed aside.  He helped me out as much as he could within the confine of the law and not out to nickel and dime me unfairly.  Not only that, but he is the type dude you could have a conversation with and not a-bored-out-of-their-mind employee.  Bonus points for having and adorable German Sheppard.

*This is non scientific and totally pulled out of my butt.

My friends and I were in the mood for Pizza and according to the GPS this was the closest thing available.

We walked in and the hostess looks at us like we were begging for food.  She says "in or out", we are a group of 6 mind you.  I said in and she proceeded to give us menus and find us a table.  We waited, waited and waited.  Nothing.  

After ~10mins, no one looked our way; not even for drinks!  I felt like I had my cloak of invisibility on or something.  My friend got up and asked what was going on and all she got was a "I'll be right there".

After that, we got the hint and left to Pat's Pizza a couple of blocks.  Worst customer service ever. Show owner comment »

My sisters and I stumbled upon this park during our stay in Chicago.  I enjoyed the chilled vibes it has;  zen like.  Oddly enough it reminds me of Puerto Rico because of it being so close to the lake and the people's laid back attitude. It was clean and well maintained.  I would go again.

This flea market was better than expected.  I have been to a ton of flea markets in my day and this one was as hippie as it gets.  I had a blast browsing the scene.  I left broke but with a smile on my face.

This is dive bars are suppose to be dirty, cheap and unapologetic.  I hear a ton of stories from the locals about how this place used to be nice.  The nights they had .25¢ draft things got insane, but fun.  Their cheese steaks were hit or miss, in a make you sick or not sort of way, but tasty.

I think is a shame the best night I had there was there was their last.  They close about a month about, RIP 15 North.

I'm glad that I grew the balls to show up to meet up with a bunch of online people.  I could not have imagine a nicer group of folks; everyone was really nice (read: normal) and had their own distinctive personalities as their reviews lead to believe.  I think is great to put an actual person behind the words.  I had a great time.

For reasons unknown to mankind, last Saturday, my friend decided to celebrate her birthday at Red Sky .  Despite my better judgment and previous burns from this place I decided to swing by.

I've been there with "the bros" years previous and hated it with a passion.  Back then I remember they charged us around $12 for a well drink that  would be $5-7  elsewhere!  I'm not cheap at all but that was highway robbery.  Also, back then the cover was negotiable and people didn't smoke inside.  Now people smoke and it was free to get in. If I had to review as it was it would get a 1 star out 5.

So, why the hell am I giving it 3 stars?  Well, my friend might have questionable taste in venues but boy can she plan ahead!  As soon as we arrived the server acted as she was expecting us and promptly took us to a section for ourselves.  She served sparkling wine to all in a professional yet gentle sort of way.  An hour went by and everyone was having, dare I say it, a great time mingling and even the girls who didn't come with were surprisingly friendly (in good way).  Furthermore, freaking Benjamin Franklin (or some dude dress as him) showed up!!  How crazy was that?!?  

Anyway, the bottles ran out and it was back to reality.   Knowing I could not spend the whole night I bounced to my secret lair (the Barbary).  That night showed me that you could have a great time anywhere with a bit planning.
