Why put the cheese on top of the burger when half of it just melts off? Instead, form the burger around the cheese so you can char the meat and safeguard the more delicate flavors. Use any mixture of hard or semihard cheeses--Emmentaler and Gouda or Asiago and Parmigiano-Reggiano also pair well.

Marcus Glenn James, 48, of Anniston, was in the Calhoun County Jail on Monday, according to jail records. He faces felony charges of burglary as well as misdemeanor theft charges, according to police reports.
Anniston police Capt. Allen George said that on the morning of Dec. 30, employees at the Food Outlet on Noble Street saw James take a bottle of ibuprofen off a shelf and put it into his pocket.
Employees told police that James paid for a loaf of bread, but not the ibuprofen, and denied taking the medication when he was questioned about it, the captain said.
When police arrived to arrest James, they discovered his outstanding warrants and arrested him on those charges as well, George said.
According to the captain, forensic evidence tied James to the 2012 burglary at Anniston High School.
George said that around 1:50 a.m. May 23, several windows at the school were broken and a computer monitor was stolen. George said that during the burglary, the suspect cut himself on the broken glass and left several drops of blood at the scene.
According to George, the blood was sent for testing in May and came back as a positive DNA match for James in February. George said because James has been arrested before, police likely had his DNA on file.
A warrant was issued for James' arrest for third-degree burglary in February.
In addition to the charges related to the Anniston High School burglary, James also had an outstanding warrant for charges stemming from the October burglary of a home on the 900 block of Claxton Street, George said. Items stolen include three space heaters, a mirror and two wooden picture frames, the captain said.
James has a bond set at $15,000, according to court records. He is scheduled to appear in court Jan. 13.

Eight months ago we challenged our Test Kitchen Staff to cook up the best fast dishes ever. By Cooking Light
If there's one thing we've heard consistently over the past 25 years, it's this: You want your healthy food fast. The quick recipe that really satisfies is cherished above all others. Sometimes it's a recipe that uses inherently fast-cooking ingredients. But even more dazzling is one that uses smart techniques to infuse a dish with the rich flavors that usually require hours on the stove. Every recipe devised for this challenge had to receive one of our top scores. These were the champs. Prepare to be amazed.
*By fast we mean 30 minutes or less, using regular kitchen tools and appliances.

2010 was an excellent year for music. The Macedelic Music Awards (aka the real MMAs) are an excuse for me to look over all those playlists I seem to save… I limited myself to 2 lines per album so I could get this done quick. It always sucks trying to pick only ten and there is a lot of excellent music not listed. Tada:

One of the best gifts my wife gave me was introducing me to BBB; the wild, intelligent, globular awesomeness is a good indicator of our marriage. This album delivers in every way.

SunTrust Classical Series
The Red Violin
The Nashville Symphony Orchestra won its first three Grammy Awards under the direction of former music adviser Leonard Slatkin. This weekend, Slatkin returns to conduct a few of his specialties. One of them is contemporary American composer John Corigliano's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra "Red Violin." Corigliano borrowed music from his 1998 Academy Award-winning score for The Red Violin to create this expansive four-movement concerto. Finnish violinist Elina Vähälä will perform the lush, prismatically beautiful score in Nashville. Slatkin will also conduct Sir Edward Elgar's Enigma Variations. That work's theme and 14 variations paint vivid sonic portraits for the composer's closest friends — Variation IX "Nimrod" may well be the most sumptuous orchestral music ever to emerge from England. España, Emmanuel Chabrier's vivacious musical postcard from Spain, will round out the program.

Paramore Concert Tickets
If you're looking for a band that combines strong vocals with pure punk sound- Paramore is your best bet. Paramore formed in Franklin Tennessee when lead singer Hayley Willians met borthers Josh and Zac Farro in school . Over the next few years Paramore tickets would sell around the Nashville area before the band was noticed by Fueled by Ramen (Panic at the Disco, Cobra Starship etc...).
Since then, this punk rock wonder has signed to Fueled By Ramen and Atlantic released three albums (All We Know Is Falling, Riot and Brand New Eyes) and won multiple awards for breakout and rock titles. Paramore has toured throughout the country with the likes of No Doubt, Cute is What We Aim for and This Providence, with Paramore tickets to their first headlining tour available in 2007.
Citing inspiration from bands like Blink 182, Death Cab for Cutie, Jimmy Eat World, Chicago and Sunny Day Real Estate, Paramore isn't just a girl-fronted pop punk band. You can rest assured that your Paramore tickets are worth much more than that. Although Paramore has been labeled as an emo band make no mistake, a Paramore concert is anythign but whiney. According to Spin Magazine- "the flame-haired Paramore frontwoman is, without question, rock's Holden Caulfield: There's no limit to Williams' disgust with phoniness in all its forms."
Hayley Williams' voice has been praised by the likes of John Mayer, who called her "The Great Orange Hope," and has been compared to No Doubt frontwoman Gwen Stefani. So if you'd like to see the next big thing in rock history, check out the Paramore tour schedule above and grab yourself some cheap Paramore tickets!

I have an iPhone 4 with 4.0.1 jailbroken and unlocked for regular travels abroad.
Recently, I've decided to upgrade to a newer version, last I tried it was 4.3.3 that I could keep an unlock and upgrade. I want to upgrade to allow syncing again, which I had lost some time ago. I haven't been able to sync for at least 6 mos, so new music, etc. not getting over. ( I get a 13019 error when trying) This means also that I am not getting backed up unless I do so manually using iphone explorer, which is a real pain.
Anyway, when I go to restore after building a custom ISPW using Pwnage tool 4.3.3 I get error codes such as this one: "the iPhone "xxx" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1600)." I also got the 21 error. Both of which I have followed instructions to fix repeatedly.
I'm in a loop... any suggestions?

Does the idea of any romantic hook-up between characters turn you off? Do you like Cameron/House? Hate Cameron/House? Think Wilson/House is in the subtext? Think they are just good friends? Cheer for House/Cuddy? Think Cuddy/Chase would be hot? Want to see the kids that would result from Cameron and Chase? Feel bad for poor Foreman because he never gets hooked-up with anyone?
And for the group who doesn't care at all - they are probably tired of running into it on threads that are supposed to be for other purposes. I know it is sometimes difficult to get a new thread going, but there are lots of House fans who like to talk about relationships; it's an intriguing part of the show. Can we possibly move it all here so other threads can, as Cuddy would say "do their job"?

3735 Wyoming St, Saint Louis, MO | Directions 6311638.599666 -90.246512
Neighborhoods: Saint Louis, Tower Grove South
neighborhood – i can't even beleive this has ratings I grew up on that block & hung out on the wall out side of that bar for most of my teen years & then i see people reviewing it 20 + years later wow that little whole in the way has come a long way Way to go Black Thorn
BEST PIZZA EVER!!! – I love going to Black Thorn!! My friends and I have been going there for a couple of years now and have never had a problem. The pizza is AMAZING, we always get the Chicago style. I can only eat two peices, even when I starve my self all day. I would recommend ordering the pizza before hand because it does take them awhile to make it. There is tv, dart boards, shuffle board, and an air hockey table. The pub is not dirty but it has that raw dirty look to it. It does get smokey up stairs but the down stairs is not bad at all.
great pizza! – well i thought i would check this place out since it got such high reviews. the pizza was really good but i definitely learned the definition of a dive bar. the bar itself left a lot to be desired. it was very unkept and i was doubtful about eating anything there. but the pizza was good! the only thing they have is pizza, cheese bread and some salads so dont expect variety. and they do have an air hockey table, which i thought was cool. i dont think i'll go back because of the dirtiness. no pizza is worth that lol
Anyone that wrote a bad review about the Black Thorn, Should Stay Home and Cook! – My husband and his buddy have been on a mission since Adamo's closed to find the best pizza in town. It's funny that I never get to go on their rendezvous do to schedule conflicts, however I do get to sample the left overs!
And let me tell you, no I personally have never been to the Black Thorn, yet my husband and his compadre have...and they have found their new place for their weekly craving!
My husband always saves me a slice, and WOW...even as a leftover, I have NEVER been more impressed. I'm ready to go and experience the place for myself. I have a three year old, and for those of you complaining about not being kid friendly, maybe your kids need manners ...no successful establishment would turn away income!...and if you know its a pub...and smoking is allowed...why are you taking them there in the first place? Just to complain?
Those that complain about bad service, more than likely have no idea what's involved in "serving" people. Especially people who can't wait more than 30 seconds for a beer, soda, or menu, or Ect and begin to YOOOHOO the wait staff. Is that how people get your attention where you work? The point of eating out is to RELAX and enjoy someone else taking care of the task of preparing and serving a meal.
So to the staff of the Black Thorn...all of this venting came of a piece of day old pizza that was AMAZING!....Can't wait to visit! Great place for our next girls nightt out!
Thank You!
A jewel among dive bars, fantastic pizza, unique atmosphere – Dave DiFani is not only responsible for bringing great pizza and fun softball to South St, Louis, he is also to blame for many marriages and several couples moving from suburban STL to the city once they discovered this jewel of a neighborhood. Dave was a true pioneer and hung in there to build this business when the neighborhood was less than desirable. Even through the carjackings, muggings, etc. of 20 years ago, the Thorn was a place to be. If this were in Chicago or New York all of you hipsters bitching about poor service and long cooking times would be raving about what an awesome place this was to meet. The Black Thorn is a place you must visit when in St. Louis and while you're there yuo might ask Dave to borrow one of his favorite books or play Battling Tops. This is an original place in a world of boring sameness. If you don't like unique, go visit some place where they wear 30 pieces of "flair"
Yes, you have to wait for 45 minutees to an hour to get your pizza, and Yes there are no waitresses. But, it;s a fun place to hang out drink beer and eat a different kind of pizza with a style all it's own, It's not quite a Chicago style pizza but it's filled with a ton of cheese and has thick crust. It's got a little extra kick to it, and if you eat more than two pieces your going to regret it.
Tips- Call ahead and order it, play shuffle board, darts, and be a man/woman and go to the bar to order for yourself.
All and all it's not the best pizza I've ever had but the place is fun and you gotta try it.
The place ruined me – Not "kid friendly?" You've got to be kidding. I can take my 11-year old grand daughter there, and have for years, with no problems from the staff. I have two nephews (16 and 13) who show up every time they know we're going. They go crazy on the air hockey table and any other game they can get on, and they can belly up to the bar to put another soda on the tab. We've been there countless times, with no problems from the staff.
Some of the beautiful people and Greeks that show up to be seen are a different story, but we go early to avoid them.
Great pizza (I don't mind the wait since they serve Guiness in Imperial pints) that's ruined me for any others, great ambience, and I can walk there. Heck, they've even let us hold a couple wakes there.
It's a hole with great pizza – The interior is dank, dark and yellow from years of smokers. The bathroom is crummy. The games are well worn. In short, it is a hole in the wall bar. But the pizza is the best deep dish in St. Louis. Don't bring your kids, it is a bar after all. Take another reviewer's advice and call ahead if you want your pizza shortly after you arrive. The deep dish pizza takes a long time to cook. It's as simple as that.
I like the place because I can sit and talk with my friends and have a few drinks while waiting for a delicious pizza.
The secret is calling ahead. – I've been going to Black Thorn for the past 3 or 4 years now and what you have to realize before you even consider Black Thorn is that you need to order at least an hour before you go. If you don't have that kind of time, then don't go. When you place your order, they'll tell you how long it will take so adjust your travel if you don't want to sit around and have a few beers/play some games while you wait. This is not Pizza Hut, Imo's, Papa John's, or even Elicia's. You will have to wait for awhile but is it so bad to slow down in life?
I've read a few of these reviews that talk about bad service. The golden rule plays big at this place. I?ve sat at the bar and watched people come in and wave their hands at the barkeep trying to order a drink. That?s pretty rude and in turn they don?t get service. The guy behind the bar is the server, the host, the door guy, the dollar change machine for the games, sometimes helps in the kitchen, and oh yeah ? he?s the bartender too. So if you get in a big huff about having to wait for a drink, order your next drink when your first one is halfway down. If you?re thirsty just order a pitcher as it is easier for the bartender and easier for you.
Black Thorn is a relaxed, have a few beers, play some games with your friends, and when your food shows up - it shows up - kind of place. It isn't for everyone, but my friends and I (25-30?s, professionals, city-dwellers) all enjoy the place.

301 Light St Ste 1405, Baltimore, MD | Directions 2120239.285430 -76.613439
Neighborhoods: Inner Harbor
NEW LOCATION - we reassessed the local institution from the Crab deck -- GREAT food and service, a maryland tradition
WORST SERVICE IMAGINABLE – I am working in Baltimore and decided to get out of the hotel for a meal. I sat at the bar and ordered a glass of expensive wine, an expensive appetizer and an expensive main course. I got my wine and then waited....and waited....and waited. And then they brought the main course. I turned it down and said I want to pay for my wine. I also asked for an apology and "Meagan B" shrugged her shoulders and said she thought the appetizer came...I was one of three people at the bar. She simple did not care. Luckily I have 5000 FB friends and 150000 twitter followers who I can also steer away from this place. Absolutely awful - and they don't care either! So neither should you.
ignore the good reputation – It was our first time in this restaurant though we have heard of the good reputation. We ordered steamed mojito clams as appetizer. One of the clams was closed and when we opened it it was full of mud! Even worse was the attitude of the manager, who came to tell us it could have happened in any seafood restaurant and was not a big deal! They did not charge us for the clams but the low health standard and the poor apology of the manager were unacceptable. I do not recommend Phillips to anyone!
HORRIBLE FOOD – This is the worst buffett I have ever been. The crabs were very overcooked. The food was not tasty at all. The crab cakes were horribly seasoned. I was very disappointed and would like a refund or something. I will be in contact with the mager or something because I cannot go on knowing that we paid about $70.00 for dog/cat food. This was not acceptable. do not eat here
Beware of nasty food and overcharging your account – Food was horrible. They overcharged my credit card for an additional tip even though, I left a cash tip. This is horrible and unnecessary. Also, management was nasty and rude. Service wasnt great. Beware... I am never going back here when I return to Baltimore.
Try the local places instead – My husband and I went to Phillips (the restaurant, not the buffet). This was our second time there in perhaps four years, and we will not be going again. If Phillips was the only seafood restaurant around, it would be more enjoyable, but when you are in Baltimore, on the harbor, with so many wonderful local choices - patronize the locals, especially those in Fell's Point, and leave the chains to the chartered bus groups. If you do want to try Phillips, be sure to (a) make a reservation and (b) purchase a gift certificate from the restaurant-dot-com website - we bought a $25 certificate for only $2 when they had them on sale, which they seem to do regularly.
Tasty – Go off hours and you can have a nice time! Lovely dinner on the waterfront in a casual atmosphere. I'm not going during peak hours again.
Save your Money! – If you are looking for a good seafood all-u-can-eat buffet, do not go to Phillips. Their selection is very small and tastes exactly like the Phillips food you get from the frozen food section of your local grocery store. The crab cakes had so much filler in them, they tasted like old-bay seasoned bread; the crab legs were so small and overcooked, we threw them all away; the cream of crab soup was so thin that it looked like milky water and had no taste. They did have fried shrimp, fried clams and cold seasoned shrimp but you can get those anywhere and they will all taste the same.
Do not spend your time and money going here, go somewhere a little nicer where you will be satisfied. There is a reason that there is no wait (usually) here but there are hour(s) waits at many other places around the area.
Huge disappointment – I joined a chartered bus trip through work down to Baltimore for a "Crab Fest." The tour included an all you could eat crab lunch at Phillip's. By the time we arrived at the restaurant we were all salivating thinking about enjoying Maryland blue claw crabs. We were escorted to a back room with long tables already set with bowls of potato salad and cole slaw ready for family style serving. We were then served fried chicken which we hungrily ate.
There was a long wait for the crabs to arrive. When they did, they were extremely small, overcooked, and worse oversalted to the point of being inedilble. I never even got to use my wooden mallot to open the delectable claws because the majority of the crabs were missing their claws.
We all realized they served us the chicken because we wouldn't be eating crabs.
Phillip's lost a chance to wow 100 customers from out of town. Instead they lost our business and the business of our friends.
Eat at M&S Grill instead - the food there is fabulous!!
Phillips HarborPlace Buffet in Baltimore – It was the worst seafood buffet ever for $28.99, I would expect a better selection of shellfish and Phillip's signature crabcakes, instead we got crabcakes that is sold on supermarkets for a buck a piece. No fresh clams, oysters, or crabs. Everything was over fried, overbreaded, and very dry. Even the cold shrimp was too dry from freeze burn. The meat choices were ribs and carved roast beef. The roast beef looked like dog food, overcooked and dry, and the ribs looked worse, I couldn't put any of those two in my plate. The crab legs, were the only thing worthy of the money, but even those were dry.
the lunch hightlight was the deserts, the pastry chef must be the best in the Harbor, he should recomend to the manager a seafood chef that takes pride of the food, as he takes on his pastries. The cakes and pies were the best I've ever eaten in a restaurant. DESERTS WERE THE BEST

But before our daughter hit her first birthday, the nanny decided to relocate. At the same time, after many months of languishing on the waiting list, we were accepted to our favorite day care. It seemed like fate. I've been a Daycare Mom for more than a year.
Some parents from our day care have formed a supper club, and during one Saturday night meal, the topic turned to Daycare versus Nanny. The mother to my left, an attorney, said that it bugs her how people assume that she can't afford a nanny because she uses daycare. "They don't understand it is a choice," she said.
Another mother-attorney, at the end of the table, chimed in. "I think nannies are easier for the parents but daycare is better for the children."
I thought of another conversation, over another meal, back when I was a Nanny Mom. I was eating lunch with an old friend. Both of us had recently returned to work after having our first children.
"I just can't imagine putting my child in daycare," my friend said conspiratorially over her Cobb salad. "It's like prison."
So what is the right answer, daycare or nanny? I certainly can't tell you that, though, trust me, just about everyone else will have an opinion! The important thing, according to experts, is to do your research, find quality caregivers (whether at home or in a daycare setting) and do what you think is best for you and your child.
Finding childcare can be an anxiety-inducing experience, for sure. There are the recent news reports about a Kiddie Kollege in New Jersey that shut down because children were exposed to mercury. And there are equally horrific stories about nannies who neglect or abuse their charges.
For advice on scoping out good child care, I turned to a couple of experts. First, on the nanny side, I called Bob King, an employment attorney and founder of Legally Nanny, a service that helps employers navigate the tricky tax issues that come with paying a nanny legally.
To find a nanny, he encourages people to use a service. Most only charge a fee to parents who end up hiring through the service—so sign up with two or three services in your area. Services typically do criminal background checks and research candidates' driving records.
"In theory, you could do all that, but that is a lot of hassle and you don't know what you don't know," Bob says.

Stereo and Obey produced a collection of Ts, posters, and decks, and had a party to celebrate at La Cita in downtown L.A. on April 9. Peep the gallery to see who was there. Thanks to Andrew and everyone else at Stereo for a great time.
This just in from Obey:
To commemorate the release of the OBEY/Stereo skateboard collaboration OBEY, Stereo and Matt Goldman teamed up to release a limited poster designed by Matt Goldman and Shepard Fairey. The initial poster offering sold out immediately with a few being given out at the release party. OBEY Clothing will be offering the hidden, remaining posters on their website at 1pm PST on Monday, April 13. In addition, 100 T-shirts were printed for the occasion. Most were given away at the party but a few were divided up prior to the festivities amongst Stereo, Matt Goldman and OBEY Clothing. OBEY Clothing's portion will be available from their site obeyclothing.com on Monday at 1pm PST as well.

Will my Social Security benefit increase next year?October 30, 2012: 6:30 AM ET
Will Social Security get a raise in 2013? — Gary B.
The Social Security Administration just announced a cost of living adjustment (COLA) of 1.7% for 2013. The increases will take effect on Dec. 1, 2012 and will appear in benefit payments starting Jan 1, 2013.
The COLA allows Social Security benefits (as well as federal and military pensions) to keep pace with inflation so the buying power of those payments holds steady. "It's a way of ensuring that retirees can maintain a reasonable standard of living," says Cristina Martin Firvida, AARP's director of financial security and consumer affairs. These adjustments are calculated every year based on increases in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W), a monthly index that tracks the rise in cost of consumer goods and services in selected urban areas. It's often argued that the CPI-W does not fairly track cost-of-living increases specific to seniors, but that's the index that the government uses.
In 2010 and 2011, the Social Security Administration determined that there was no effective uptick in the CPI-W, and, accordingly, declined to implement a COLA. This year, by comparison, saw a COLA of 3.6%.

underwhelming, overpriced, mediocre daytripper trap – Can't let our recent, incredibly disappointing and inarguably overpriced meal at Alioto's go unreported. We had 3 days for a getaway in SF parlayed with work. Time was tight, we were on a mission to enjoy as as much of what the City has to offer. On our last day there, we returned from a ferry trip & needed to find somewhere for dinner. All the freebie guides pointed to Alioto's as a culinary fixture, with reliably good food. We were tired, and hungry, staying close to the Wharf, and didn't want to overthink dinner. In hindsight, we should've headed to the Eagle Caf
Bum Treatment – Family arrived from out of town and we were hoping to make a memory; so we decided to have lunch at a SF landmark. We splurged and took the limits off and ordered to our hearts content, including Lobster Thurmadore! We were having a great time until it was discovered that the Lobster Thurmadore (which cost $50.00) only had 10% Lobster and 90% Mushrooms and filler. So we brought it to the attention of the Manager, who proceed to treat the matter in a very unprofessional way, deminishing our experience.
Waiter Albert R., Asian, fraudulently overcharges bill to increase tip – I dined at Alioto's tonight and the waiter Albert R.., an Asian who said he was Dutch by origin, altered the final signed debit card bill to increase his tip without my knowledge by almost $15. This is in spite of the fact that my Mom and I dined at this restaurant last week and left the same waiter over a 20% tip. I am contacting my bank, business bureau, restaurant, and will never dine here again. A distasteful experience leaving a bad fishy taste in my mouth.
I'm not sure where all the bad reviews are coming from. We walked in early on a beautiful Sunday evening without reservations. It wasn't crowded when we arrived, but it was packed when we left. We were given a table by the windows with a spectacular view of the fishing fleet and the sunset over the Golden Gate Bridge, which got interrupted by the even more spectaular rolling in of the fog. The wait staff was nothing if not professional. Not rushed in the least, but very attentive. The salads were crisp and fresh, and the cioppino, fish stew, and calamari were excellent. The stews were steaming hot, and the broths were worth mopping dry with the warm fresh bread offered. I can't say I had the highest expectations going in, but I thought it was excellent. The wine list has a Wine Spectator award level, and rightfully so. It covers everything you need without having 1000 selections, and is reasonably priced. What's not to like? Good food, good service, great view, reasonable prices. I'm baffled by the negativity. Maybe I caught them on a good day...
TOURIST RIPOFF – MARCH 22 SATURDAY- ATTRACTED BY LUNCH SPECIAL 11AM-4PM- RIPPOFF - has about 12 items on
lunch special-ordered salmon- paper thin- salmon steak with mash potatoes- thats it- $12, wife ordered
shrimp scampi- 4 med shrimp- rice- thats it- $11- rippoff- both had ice tea- med glass- waiter said u get
a second free glass only--- ordered blowl of clam chower- $9 it was thin and did not taste that good
view was good-could see golden gate bridge-- overpriced other dinner fish items start @ $25-28 for fish
ripp off-- should have just ate on the street with the street vendors- ya 3 generations- well this last generation does not take pride in there food- - i don't mind paying $12-16 for lunch- for a smaller portion
of good fish- terrible-place-- did have good service was friendly- - couldn't wait to get back to chicago to write this- cannot believe they are on the famous fishermens wharf- to bad black eye to the area
Catch of the Day – If you want seafood, there is no comparison. Excellent and professional waitstaff, fresh wonderful fish dinners. Calamari steak is the best!
Overpriced Food, Poor Quality, Dodgy Staff – I cannot believe how poor the food quality was. For a restaurant where prices avergage about $25 per entree, I expect a lot more. Worst of all - our server tried to pass off a small plate filled with canned salad shrimp as a shrimp cocktail! I think he was trying to pull one over on our table, which included several non-English speaking people. When confronted by me, the waiter said the customer should have instead asked for a "prawn" cocktail. When he brought over the "prawn" cocktail, it was a few pieces of old, shriveled-up shrimp. What a joke! After dinner, we confronted the manager about this and he at first agreed with us. After speaking with the waiter; however, he then said we were wrong. That a "California" shrimp cocktail is different than a shrimp cocktail back East (where I am from). What a bunch of B.S.! To think that anyone would pay upwards of $15 for a can of salad shrimp is ridiculous. These people are simply sleazy restaurateurs trying to take advantage of people.
Awful, unacceptable.
Service, food, view, all top notch – Aug 17, 2007 lovely dinner for two. We knew this was an old faithful sort of place, and they sure did deliver. I am a huge seafood lover, East Coast girl, and great cook in my own right. Our table overlooked the marina area, so we had a nice sunset view. Our waiter was beyond wonderful. The perfect balace of advice, knowledge, style, personality and yet invisible. Great teamwork with other dining room staff as well. They finely coordinated opening all of the blinds of all of the windows so as to optimize the sunset view. Bartender makes a great Negroni - yummy if you are familiar. Nicely paced service so as to not feel rushed in and out- even though they were quite busy. Food not only tasted very good but high marks for presentation. Take time to read the captions on all of the photos chronicling the development of the restaurant. Very nice wine list to accompany any dinner selection. A very nice dinner and evening.
Disappointing seafood on the Wharf – We just returned from a fabulous San Francisco- Fisherman's Wharf vacation, enjoying among other things, an abundance of seafood. We made a list of places to eat before we got there and were very disappointed in Alioto's. Let's start with the service; once seated our server visited us only to try and rush us to order, then once toward the end of our meal, and finally to bring our check. I ordered the Sauteed Crab legs, only to be told by our waiter that I had to give him a second choice as he didn't know if they had any left. I was as surprised by this as anyone as it is in the middle of Crab season, a week day, 3:00 in the afternoon, and there are rows of crab shacks outside the restraunt. Our server made a suggestion for my second choice rather than checking first or giving me time to search the menu, but was told it contained crab, just out of the shell. I don't remember the exact name of the dish, but it it contained 4 large fairly good prawns (a little overcooked-rubbery), 4 very rubbery and gritty scallops, and 4 very small (less than an inch in length) pieces of crab meat. Needless to say I was very disappointed with what I ended up with. My son had a rather small portion of fish and chips, and my husband the seafood canneloni, which he said was ok, but not fabulous for the price tag. If you choose to dine here expect to pay ALOT, salads and sides are a la carte. The only redeeming thing was the view. If you don't care how much you spend for mediocre food and poor service, then go for the view, otherwise save your money and go to one of the smaller places on the Wharf like "Sabella - La Torre".
Painfully slow. Did our waitress run across town on some errands? We haven't seen her for 30 minutes! – Do not go to Alioto's unless you desire painfully slow, impersonal service. Our party of 5 adults and 3 kids arrived on St. Patrick's day to a half-full restaurant. The greeting and seating was prompt, but it was downhill from there. We were only given 5 waters, nothing for the kids. We had to go and steal waters off other tables. When our waitress finally arrived after 10 minutes, we all ordered the lunch special: bread bowls with clam chowder and a side salad...nothing more. 30 minutes later, our food had still not arrived. I finally asked the hostess to check on our order. Our food finally arrived five minutes later but not until two other tables (that arrived and ordered 15 minutes after we did...and ordered the same items) had been served their food. To make things worse, there were only about 5 spoonfuls of chower in the bowl because the bread bowl had not been scooped out. The salads were warm and limp.
Sadly, we were not the only table with poor service. I watched as three other tables around us experience the same lackluster service. As a former chef and waiter, I found Alioto's service absolutely unacceptable. As a paying customer, the experience was deplorable. For a meal that should have taken no more than 10 minutes (max!) to get out of the kitchen, we waited nearly 40 minutes. Sad.
Positive Comment: The restaurant was very clean, seating prompt, and a good view of the boat dock. Not much of a harbor view. The chowder, all 5 spoonfuls, was very good.
