We decided to stop in for a late lunch. We were super excited because we love the competitor, Fired Pie a few miles away, also in Chandler. We were greeted right away which was nice. The space is very modern and cool looking. On the walls were TVs that showed Yelp, Facebook and Twitter feeds. Hint: Go right immediately in the door. It is open to guessing so if you go straight you are actually at the register, not the ordering area. It is tough to tell where to start when you walk in. We ordered a salad and pizza. We were asked if it was for here or to go. I said here. The salad then came from a cooler below the items you pick from - in a to go container. If the salad is in a premade to go container, why does it matter where we ate it?? This should have been my first clue. We asked for regular sauce on our pizza and they kept insisting we put olive oil on it so it wouldn't burn. I said no to which the gal said, you can't taste the olive oil, it's just there. If you don't put it on it will burn. This should have been my second clue. I said no, I didn't want it. I picked the toppings to my salad and we did the same for the pizza. The salad was ok but the chicken on the salad was extremely tough to chew. The pizza was ok but a little doughy in the middle. As we sat eating I watched a man clean the stainless steel with a chemical in a metal container and a rag. All above where the pizza gets cut . After another crowd of people came through I watched a second gentleman clean the stainless steel on the front of the oven doing the same. As we were leaving there was a man standing in the doorway to the back of the kitchen tucking his shirt into his pants. Food was meh at best. A couple employees were super nice and helpful while some appeared to be on their first day on the job, not so helpful and knew very little about anything. I asked what the Five85 stood for since the prices are $7.95 ( if I remember correctly). She said she didn't really know but it was probably just a name they made up. She didn't seem to know much about the company she worked for and had a very difficult time ringing us up. Can't say I would recommend this place or go back. Sadly, we were so excited too. Bummer. | 01

First and foremost they suck and I believe them to be bait and switch artist!!! \n\nI was going to go to Chipotle next-door for dinner but the line was long (because it is good). The hawker on the side walk convinced me this was a Italian equivalent to Chipotle and they were running a special for $5.85 that was normally $7.75. DONE I'm in! \n\nFirst your sign is confusing as hell there were 5 people standing there trying to figure it out. It had more words than a Twitter post and this review. But it should have had 8; \""pizza one size any sauce any topping $7.75\"".\n\nI built my pizza and headed to the cashier were the girl from our side was now on register. \n\n\""$10.53 please\"", she said. \n\n\""You just told me it was $5.85. How expensive is the drink?\""\n\n\""Do you have the coupon\"", she asked?\n\n\""You didn't tell me I needed the coupon\""\n \n\""Well you do\"", she said. \n\nAt this point the manager slowly faded into the background. Eventually hiding in the back room.\n\nSo I'll never be back again!!!!\n\nP.S. If I was Chipotle I would sue these idiots for trade infringement and libel!!! | 01

The pizza is Peter Piper quality. If you like good pizza learn from my mistake. Skip this place.\n\nThe sauce is nasty. They put too much on and it kills any potential for a decent bite.\n\nThe veggies are average and the meats are OK--glad they have chicken as an option.\n\nNo matter what you put on it, the sauce overpowers the pizza as a whole.\n\nMuch better pizza over at Jimmy and Joes for lunch. Dinner? Grab Grimaldis. | 01

Glad I came here... Only because I know it's not that good enough to come back. The notion of a \""chipotle-of-pizza-AND-pasta\"" was exciting but unfortunately, expectations weren't met. \n\nThe pasta was probably only okay because we were REALLY hungry. It was quite bland and the bits of Cajun chicken they have are dry. I will say the pizza isn't half bad. I liked the BBQ sauce, it was nice a tangy. The pizza was crispy, not soggy. But there are just much better create-your-pizza places out there. \n\nAnother word of advice when coming here: do not go here if you are in a hurry. My bf and I had a show to attend and were looking for something quick. Seeing that there was no line when we entered, we thought this would be fast but it seemed like the employee was working in snail mode. The pizza takes about 10+ minutes to cook as well. \n\nThe 2 stars I gave were for the smiles and kindness of the employees. I appreciated it. | 01

Just stopped here (6:30 PM on a Saturday evening), and was surprised to see they're closed! Yelp says it's \""open\"", and their web site says they close at 9 PM today. No sign was in the window to explain, so I don't know if the closure is temporary or not.\n\nUpdate: mid-afternoon on Sunday, and this place is still closed. Doesn't look good. | 01

My favorite Hawaiian BBQ spot in town. When I go I always get the BBQ Chicken plate and my girlfriend gets the kalua pork plate. Both come with rice and macaroni salad. We also like to get the punch drinks. The great thing about this spot is its very fast service....And they also deliver! So now we can stay at home and order lol. I recommend this to anyone who wants to try some good Hawaiian BBQ! The Best! Dine in area kinda small.\n\n-Joe | 12

Prior to dining, my only familiarity with the Katsuya name was from TMZ. If I were making half a milly per TV episode, this would be in my regular dining rotation too! The menu's prices are on par with Nobu, Sushi Roku or Blue Ribbon. \n\nAt least those restaurants offer some kind of a chic atmosphere. Katsuya felt like an upscale diner with a sushi bar plunked in the middle. The bright lighting, noise from the casino and the constant yelling of \""Irashaimase!\"" over and over and over by employees made this a decisively unsexy spot. I can't imagine tourists would want this kind of setting for a pricey sushi meal on the strip. If a booth at Nobu's outpost at Caesars Palace is Kate Upton, it's kind of Rosie O'Donnell here. Power lunches or corporate dinners? Yes. Anniversary dinners or bachelorette parties? No! \n\nFor those reasons, my wife and I chose to sit at the bar since the people working there looked like they were having a good time. All them were super nice and knowledgeable of all things Katsuya. They also made some awesome cocktails to boot. I loved the \""Sahara Cooler\"" which consisted of Ketel One Oranje vodka, Aperol, passion-fruit pur\u00e9e, fresh lime juice, and Stiegl Radler Grapefruit beer. That was instant refreshment. One of the bartenders, whose name escapes me but I remember being a Chargers/Eagles fan, created a wonderful version of a prickly pear cocktail for my wife. \n\nThe plan was to not order items we could get at local, off the strip Japanese spots like Kyara or Raku. So $8 edamame (shockingly saw lots of people order this), anything from the robata grill ($12 for asparagus with no bacon) and $11 karaage were out of the question. \n\nWant to know what was? Rare Wagyu filet with foie gras on top! So tender and soooo decadent, it was like a story I never wanted to end. The plum wine sauce reduction really added a nice balance. Lobster and truffle chawanmushi was another dish I don't see everyday. Despite the small portion being steamed in a Japanese tea cup, I thought it tasted great and would probably order it again. Dig in from the bottom for maximum truffle taste.\n\nI thought the Wagyu sashimi seared with hot oil and topped with chives and ginger was very good too. The oil they used made it taste more like a Chinese dish which was a nice little changeup from the other beef dish. Seared tuna with Japanese salsa was equally as good. The high quality of the fish was easy to see as well as taste.\n\nMy wife was still hungry and had her eye on the \""Wafu Carbonara\"" which was simply described as \""slow-cooked bacon, soy reduction, and soft poached egg\"". I tried to talk her out of it since she makes a great version of this dish at home. Unsurprisingly, I lost that battle. One of the bartenders assured us this was something worth having and she was right. The huge chunks of pork belly with bonito flakes and sauce/egg mix just oozing over the ramen noodles was a hearty dish and a nice ending to the meal. | 12

Great fish. Everything else pretty much a disaster. Service juvenile. Hours for follow up on simple asks. Ran out of unfiltered saki at 7:30pm. Give them a year to pull it together. | 01

So tonight, I rolled up to the hostess, and said \""worlds smallest birthday party for one please\"". \nI was given birthday wishes by every member of the staff, including the head chef of all of katsuya who came to my table and called me by my name because he remembered me from the last time I was there.\nThe SLS Hotel gives you a $30 dining credit for your birthday, which is also nice, so I loaded up on wagyu beef. So melt in your mouth delicious. I had red snapper sushi with yuzu/pepper , wagyu sashimi, wagyu sushi, creamy spicy rock shrimp tempura on a spicy tuna roll and the Fairbanks roll. I was sooooo full, but thank god for my separate desert stomach, because my strawberry birthday mochi was the best I ever had. I'm not a fan of it normally,, but now I will always order it from here.\nThanks for my genuine birthday love, amazing food and great service, Katsuya! | 12

We decided to give them a try for dessert before trying them for dinner. The server told us there was not a dessert menu but they had yuzu cheesecake, green tea creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e, chocolate lava cake, and yuzu sorbet. None of the desserts seemed inspired to me. Especially the chocolate lava cake which is outdated and the green tea creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e which is commonly served at Japanese restaurants. \n\nNone of the desserts were well executed. Instead of coming with yuzu cheesecake, the dessert sampler came with black sesame mochi because they ran out of the cheesecake. \n\nI am in no rush to return for dinner because if they cannot execute straight forward desserts I do not feel they can execute straight forward Japanese food. | 01
|
Excellent service! I wish I remembered our server's name - She was WONDERFUL!! The food was great too, but the only reason I dinged down one star is because they overcharged my friend's credit card when they adjusted the tip... other than that - it was great! | 12
|
Katsu-bla....what makes the LA version good is the scene...when you take the scene away and expose the mediocre food and double the price, it makes for a disappointing experience. I have to say the service is great...but the food was just not good...nothing was balanced or seasoned correctly and the fish was below average. Dropped $380 on 2 people so we sample quite a lot...but not nearly as much as you would expect for that price and a thoroughly disappointing meal. | 01
|
Wowie Wow Wow. The Very Best black Cod that I have ever tasted. It was like eating butterfish & the portion size was VERY generous. The wagyu beef was so tasty & tender. The Sushi platter was very colorful & the ginger was primo quality! \nServers are so helpful, happily checking in, making suggestions, & inciting our party to return soon. The sweets are so fresh & tasty. This restaurant is such a bonus for the SLS casino. It makes the casino definitely worth going to! | 12
|
Expensive , small small amount too much modern style I'm not recommend here at all at all. I stop eat in hotel restaurants I should have stay that!! Just waste money | 01
|
Great selections! Sushi great, but the meat selections were fantastic. | 12
|
Amazing restaurant in the SLS. Loved the crispy rice spicy tuna and the baked lobster roll. Sushi chef was great and service was good. | 12
|
I was afraid I'd over inflated my expectations for this place, but I'm pleased to say that they were met, and then some! \n\nFirst off, the atmosphere is hip and chill. If you are dressed too casually, you will definitely be the odd one out, but it is not a stuffy scene in the least. The floor plan gives you a wide-angle view of the casino floor. You never forget you're on the Strip, but in the best possible way.\n\nOur server, Mario, was A++. \n\nNow, for the food.... we started off with the crispy rice and spice tuna. it was the perfect 10 in texture and flavor. That will easily be a go-to the next time I'm here.\n\nI had the crispy chicken salad, the California roll, and, the belle of the tasting ball, the Special Katsuya Roll. The flavors were clean, fresh, and delectable. \n\nFor dessert, we shared the green tea mochi. Yummy! \n\nGlad we came! I'll definitely be back! | 12

Went here last night for sushi. Overall I would recommend. Had the Katsuya special roll, light, crisp, great way to start. Then had the double Hamachi and Tiger roll (liquid gold!) - highly recommend all those. The disappointment was the lobster roll - too rich and mushy lobster. I would come here again but would skip the lobster. | 12

We dined here a couple weeks ago for their #SocialSundays promotion for locals (50% off your bill). There were a couple items that were excluded from the promotion: Omakase Geta, Otoro, Chutoro, and A4 Sukiyaki. I was disappointed since I wanted to order the Omakase Geta, but that didn't stop me.\n\nWe were sat next to the sushi bar, so I had a wonderful time watching the sushi chefs expertly craft their beautiful dishes. It was very busy that evening and service was just okay. We were constantly wondering where our server was and our beverages remained empty on a couple occasions.\n\nNaturally, I had high expectations because of the stature of Katsuya and the prices to match. However, I was also anticipating it to be all \""hype,\"" but I was pleasantly delighted with our meal. Besides some of the typical flavors you could find at any sushi joint in town, there were great surprises. Overall, the food is delicious and although the high prices may be a deterrent, there are several dishes that I would love to eat again.\n\nKatsuya Ceviche ($18): Assorted sashimi, avocado, red onion, radish, cilantro, edible flowers, yuzu and lime dressing, and served with shrimp chips. This was wonderful. It was fresh like you'd expect from a ceviche and the dressing was fantastic!\n\nSalmon Sashimi with Caviar ($25): Salmon sashimi is rolled around a Japanese onion chutney, topped with caviar, and served on a cucumber crisp. The chutney turned a simple dish into something a little more special. I could have done without the cucumber though; it didn't add anything to the experience.\n\nWagyu Sashimi ($18): The thinly-sliced wagyu is topped with hot oil, young garlic, and chives. The wagyu was fantastic and the oil/sauce was flavorful.\n\nWagyu Filet with Foie Gras ($39): Filets of perfectly cooked Wagyu with equal-sized medallions of foie gras, topped with a plum wine reduction. This dish was fantastic. The Wagyu was so, so tender and it was just euphoric with the custard-y foie.\n\nMushroom Bop ($18): It's a take on Korean Dolsot Bibimbap with a hot pot filled with rice, spinach, and miscellaneous fungi like Truffle, Procini, Enoki, and Shiitake. Now, this is a dish I would never have ordered and I was so pleased with it! The flavors were incredible.\n\nOmakase Geta ($150): Lobster and Truffle Chawanmushi, Tako with Cucumber Sunomono, Special Katsuya Roll, Sahara Roll, Baked Crab Hand Roll, Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna, Negi Toro Roll, Assorted Nigiri (Ikura, Uni, Chutoro with Caviar, and Kanpachi), and Assorted Sashimi (Amaebi, Scallop, Otoro, Japanese Red Snapper, Aji, Bluefin Tuna, and Salmon). First, would I recommend ordering the Omakase Geta? Ehh, yes and no. It's a gorgeous, tasty masterpiece that is impossible to capture in one photograph, however, the items offered are rather boring. The exception being the Lobster and Truffle Chawanmushi (I recommend ordering a couple of these to start your meal). Everything else was delicious, but nothing I haven't had at other sushi restaurants (I would pass on the Sahara Roll as it tasted exactly like rolls found at AYCE sushi places). Oh, the Baked Crab Hand Roll was a surprise. I didn't think it was going to be much, but it was great!\n\nDessert Omakase ($8): Green Tea Mochi Ice Cream, Lychee Sorbet, Chocolate Cake, Yuzu Cheesecake, and Matcha Green Tea Creme Br\u00fbl\u00e9e. I really enjoyed the Yuzu Cheesecake (although it was MUCH too small even to share), Lychee Sorbet, and Chocolate Cake. | 12

A \""Japanese\"" chain restaurant in cities Brentwood, Dubai, Glendale, Hollywood, Kuwait, LA, Las Vegas and South Beach; an NO location in Japan. It speaks volumes.\n\nSarcasm aside, and putting it mildly, this is yet another restaurant designed for the gaijin serving faux Japanese fare like silly 15 ingredient sushi creations with even more ridiculous names like a tiger roll or corn crunch roll. That said, it does a better job than most.\n\nModern interior, clean lines, and a contemporary vibe provide a great setting for the culinary creations. \n\nIn general, fresh seafood, beautiful, colorful plantings and wonderful presentation that heighten the experience and mask imperfections.\n\nCreative dishes are very good. A lobster and truffle chawanmushi with its soft, velvety texture, hints of dashi and sweet lobster accented by the earthy finish of truffle is good eats. The scallop sashimi outstanding. Brightened by the yuzu, perfect texture with apple and peppery finish of watercress. The wagyu sashimi, gently seared with oil perfectly accented by the heat and pounced flavor of ginger and bitterness of chives.\n\nNice selection of wagyu beef dishes including some using A4 Japanese wagyu. Be careful of the fatty richness. It's very easy to fill up. The wagu short rib, rib eye, and skirt steak from the robata grill are a great way to try different cuts and flavors. The wagyu filet with foie and a plum wine reduction also worthy albeit excessively rich as the plum reduction lacks sufficient acidity to cut through the fat on fat pairing of the wagyu and foie. Sadly the A4 wagyu rice was excessively oily with a cloying mouth feel paling in comparison to that of BarMASA.\n\nForget the silly rolls, they are a waste of the very good quality, fresh seafood. Additionally, the rice for the nigiri is aggressively seasoned, sticky, and compacted with broken grains. The seasoning takes away from the enjoyment. Focus on sashimi offerings (ask for any sushi offering as sashimi). Correctly graded chu and o-toro, very good mirugai, aji, and uni.\n\nWell chosen selection of beer and very well chosen selection of sake at Vegas resort markup. \n\nGood service but still showing the \""green\"" uncertainty that will go away with time.\n\nDefinitely one of the better \""interpretive\"" Japanese eateries in Vegas today. | 12

I can appreciate what they are 'trying' to do but this place is not an AUTHENTIC Japanese restaurant. From the interior design down to the food. I wouldn't say the food is terrible but for the price you are paying, it definitely isn't great. I'm a sushi connoisseur so I know when sushi/sashimi is good when I look at it. When our sushi came out, the salmon and unagi (eel) looked as if it was exposed to air for a very long time. The only reason why we came here is because we were provided with credit by SLS (Hotel). For the people that occasionally eat Japanese good, this may be a good place but if you are looking for an AUTHENTIC Japanese dining experience, then I would look else where. If you love sashimi/sushi then I would try Yellow Tail at the Bellagio. Now if you have deep pockets then I would make the trip to Urasawa. \n\nI only gave it two stars because the service was good and our female server was good looking. | 01

We went to Katsuya on our stay-cation to celebrate Eric R.'s birthday. It happened to be the 50% off locals Sunday pick. We did not have reservations so we opted to sit at the cocktail bar. Our bartender/server happened to recognize me from a past job in town and that made it a very personable experience. We got there right at opening (6 PM) and ordered immediately. I had iced green tea (apparently the SLS commissions its own tea plantation for exclusive hot and iced teas) and Eric R. had hot green tea and the Katsuya fresh cucumber cocktail.\n\nSome things we ordered we waited over an hour for, and things our neighbor at the bar got we were told the kitchen ran out of even though we ordered them at the same time (like negi toro) so that was frustrating. We tried a variety of dishes, including the seaweed sunomono, salmon sashimi appetizer with caviar, and the wagyu beef sashimi with hot oil (Nobu's was better). We sampled yellowtail, salmon, toro, scallop, and mackerel sushi. The mackerel was served with thin kelp on top of it.\n\nI also tried a salmon skin handroll which had kaiware sprouts, gobo, and cucumber. One of my favorite dishes of the night was the mushroom bop - a hot stone pot like dolsot bimibap with arborio rice, a variety of mushrooms, a hint of parmesan, and a sauce that brought it all together so deliciously. We finished with the dessert omakase which had mochi, yuzu cheesecake, green tea creme brulee, and sorbet. Service was great though we had a rush of food then a very long wait for the rest of the stuff. With the half off and a few comps for the wait plus the $5 happy hour cocktails, we ended up right below our dining credit allotment so all we paid was tax and tip - sweet local deal and a great birthday present for Eric R. | 12

First night in Vegas and wanted to check out the SLS so came here for dinner. What a huge disappointment!\n\nTable for seven people was tiny! I felt like I was sitting at the kids table. Ten feet away is where people were able to smoke while we were eating. \n\nService was very slow and spotty. Our service was very nice but we never knew when we were going to see him again. \n\nFood was not very good. We had one dish that was so bad that we sent back. Had another dish that was horrible and learned that they delivered us someone else's custom dish that had cod instead of crab. Waygu fried rice, one if their signature dishes, was not very good. Lacked depth and flavor. \n\nWaiter did bring out complimentary desserts due to all of our issues, which was very nice but did not make up for our expensive tasteless dinner. \n\nI do not recommend this place and will not come back!\n\nSide note - the SLS hotel is very underwhelming and also a hotel that I would not come back to. This hotel cannot compare to any other high end hotels on the strip. SLS in Beverly Hills is much nicer. | 01

The main reason I am writing this review, other than the fact that this place is awesome is because of the honesty of the staff. In vegas it is rare that you find such honesty and this place has it in abundance.\nour bill was 240 between three of us, and we left a 60 dollar tip. \nMy two friends got checks that were for a 100, so mine was for 40 and i wrote in 60, but accidentally wrote my total as 300 rather than 100. The gracious host called my room and corrected my error which is not something that they had to do.\nI have always loved Katsuya, pretty sure I wrote them a stellar review for their hollywood location. Clearly they have a strong program for training staff, and their food is amazing too!\nGo here!!!!!!!! | 12
|
Stay away from this place! There is a hang running this place! We were on the guest list n already paid for the package. After keeping us an hour in the line, they tried to charge us 55 per person to get in!! We ended up getting VIP Table service at Tao for half a price for out group of 15! Font screw up your night at Vegas! | 01

I came here on the 2nd weekend that they opened ( Labor Day Weekend) since they had free entry for Dirty South with even ratio. \n\nGetting in was a cluster fuck of people and a huge mess, we arrived at the venue at 9:30 but weren't walked in by our promoter till 10:30, and spent an hour waiting in a line for no apparent reason. Apparently alot of other people were just waiting for their promoters to just show up as well. I am guessing since they are pretty new they are still trying to work out the kinks. \n\nI love the entry / interior decoration of this club. They have 3 different levels but most of them are filled with tables. So if you don't get a table you are going to end up on the edge, on the stairs or on the very small dance floor. They have dancers hanging from the ceiling and dancers located throughout the club as well, very cirque du soleil like. \n\nThe bass/ sound system for this club is ridiculous, you can feel the bass through every part of your body. The opening DJ for Dirty South was pretty good in the beginning, but by the end of his set he started playing some music that was just all over the place sudden drops / dubstep / electro sounding stuff that I really had no idea what it was and I wasn't feeling it at all. \n\nI would definitely come here again since the venue is so attractive inside. | 12

OVER RATED AND DISAPPOINTING\nDO NOT GO HERE. Compared to Light and Drai's there's nothing special about LIFE.\n\nSLS is the newly renovated hotel, where the Sahara used to be. Consequently, its isolated in from rest of the strip. It's on the north end of the strip and is closest to Circus Circus. SLS has the \""LA vibe\"". As an LA transplant, I would agree that the hotel is LA chic, but nothing special. \n\nI went on Friday Aug 29, during Grand Opening Weekend for Laidback Luke. As a local I've been to most of the clubs on the strip. I had no expectations since, I was warned that the club was so-so.\n\nBasically, Life Night Club = Exchange LA. \n\nThe rundown of the events. I contacted the promoter, got on guestlist, my group arrived at midnight 1:1 ratio guys and girls. As locals we got in free (was it a mistake? maybe). Getting the guys in free was literally the only highlight of the night.\n\nMy socal girlfriends (9 girls 1 guy) arrived before my group but were held up longer than mine. \n\nThe venue its self is VERY spacious. LIFE had acrobats and dancers like LIGHT, but they're performance was not up to par. LIFE had fewer lights than Drais. It was very dark for prolonged periods of time. The blasted really cold air into the crowd often which accounts for some of the dark times.\n\nThe opening DJ was lame. Laidback Luke was good. Thats basically it. \n\nThe bathrooms are weird. First, there's no sign for the restroom. Secondly, guys and girls share sinks. Consequently, there's no sitting space for ladies. Men and Women stalls basically separated by a tiny hallway (2 person width).There are no shelves in the bathroom stalls! The fuck. Where am I supposed put my drink when I go pee? \n\n\nIn summary, if your visiting don't waste your time @ Life. | 01
|
This club is just not good. The music is not good, the layout is poor and the people are unattractive. I really have nothing good to say about this place. Save yourself and go somewhere else. Anywhere else. | 01

Came in Labor Day weekend and the promoter promised too many things... I should've known it was too good. Beware of BRIAN RATLEFF! I was given a price for the one guy in my party; $25 which raised to $45 when we got there. There were 9 other girls so he lowered the price when we threatened to leave bc he lied. He kept promising our group free drink tickets that never came. That wouldn't bother me except when I text him, he replied just to wait and that he'll meet me to hand them over. I waited 30 minutes bc he kept saying he was walking to where I was. Waisted my time when I had better things to do. \n\nThe crowd seemed a bit older (early 30s) The dj played EDM and the single dance floor was average. No chairs or seats anywhere. The bathrooms were clean and the attendants in there were kind. I paid $15 for bottled water.... Not happy about that. \n\nI would not return given the other venues on the strip and the fact that Brian lied to me. Oh btw, he had the audacity to contact me the next day saying he can get me \""hook ups\"" to another club. I think I'll take my business elsewhere. | 01
|
I went with a group of 9 girls and 1 guy during their opening weekend which fell on Labor Day. Promoter Brian whatever promised our group a table or at least free drinks as well as the bar being open til 1 and the guy only has to pay $25. Too good to be true right? Hell yeah it was! First hour we got there we were so annoyed and pissed. Way to start out. Everything was major bullshit. Didn't get a table so we wanted drink tickets. Brian led us on a wild goose chase and kept saying \""I'll be there.\"" Mofo was a big ass liar. Girls didn't get free drinks at all! Lastly, he tried to charge the guy $45 instead of the $25 he promised. Don't deal with this idiot. \n\nPerformance? Ehh.... Not very impressive acrobatic stunts. They all looked like they just got off a Lady Gaga music video. Kinda creepy. Opening DJ sucked. Visuals sucked.\n\nCrowd? On the older side but it's not bad. Dance floor wasn't bad as well.\n\nNo where to sit! How annoying. That is very vital for girls on heels.\n\nI kinda had fun so I'd give it 2 stars. I wouldn't come back here though. | 01

Bad experience, stay away, you have been warned. Worst VIP hosts in Vegas. I have been coming to Vegas 6-8 times a year for the past 10 plus years so I know the night club game. I know most hosts are snakes but these hosts at Life/SLS take things to a new low. My friends and I stayed at SLS(mistake) and got a cabana Saturday afternoon at the SLS Foxtail pool where we spent about $2000. While we were there a host solicited us about a table at LIFE that evening. He gave us a few options but said he could get us a table for 6 on the dance floor for $3000-$3500, my friend and I discussed it breifly and said we will take it. The host made all the arrangements and we told he we would be there at 11ish after our dinner. We arrived about 11:15 to check in and he then told us the dance floor table would be $5000-$6000....WTF happened to the $3000 table you promised us??? He said we could still do a $3000 table but it was on the second or third tier, totally unacceptable!\n\nWe said no thanks, rounded up the troops and headed over to Marquee where we know we can get a pretty good table in a nice club for $3000. Good job LIFE, keep it up and you will be shuttering your doors closed in no time at all. Stay away people, keep in mind its an $18-$20 cab ride each way from pretty much every property on the strip to the SLS becuase it is out in no mans land on the far north strip.Save that $40 round trip cab ride and play a hand of Blackjack with it, your odds are better at the blackjack table than they are at LIFE. | 01

I've been to all the major clubs in Vegas, Miami, and Ibiza, and can say LiFE was amazing! They have really taken extra steps in making the club unique. I loved the setup of our table with holes cut out where your bottles sit. This ensures you don't get some drunk idiot knocking over and spilling your bottle which I have had happen multiple times!! Our host was amazing setting us up with a great view of the Dj. We had two amazing and beautiful waitresses. I loved the bathroom setup with guys and girls sharing sinks. The best part of LiFE is the music. They are trying to cater on Sunday nights to REAL electronic music fans. Booking more Dj's who spin in Ibiza and Miami- not EDM rage music. I would recommend checking out the Sayers Club beforehand- A great lounge with great drinks- I will definitely be hitting up LiFE again! | 12

So there wasn't really anything that stood out to me about LiFE nightclub, but they did overcharge me twice for the same transaction. This also happened to my friend who got charged 3x for the same transaction. And no, we were not drunk that night as I remember everything. We got to Vegas pretty late and decided to check out the new club and only had a few drinks.\n\nSave your money and time (disputing with credit card company) and head somewhere else. If it only happened to me...OK I'll just handle it with my credit card company and mistakes are forgiven. But also to a friend the same night? Something's wrong here. | 01

I was excited that a new casino the SLS had opened in Vegas. And a new club. LIfe. I was so unimpressed and disappointed by the club. Life is a total waste of time and money. Horrible service, rude staff overpriced beyond rheir north strip ghetto local. Do not waste your time. Lame | 01

Was there for opening weekend. Our VIP host set us up with 2nd tier section, although upon arrival he surprised us with the one of the best dance floor tables in the building......Thank You Richie Summers!!! We've had table service almost everywhere in Vegas and in have to say LiFE has some of the best staff around, they were on point the whole night. Standouts are Pili, Trina, Ann, Jojo, Yajira, and most importantly Richie Summers for always taking great care of us. Thank you all for being a huge part of our night! Although the SLS hotel is not for us, we will be back to LiFE. | 12

Went for Halloween this year and had a blast! The promoters were super cool and we got right in! Comparable to any hot nightclub in Vegas-- good crowd/good music. Club is well laid out out and pretty easy to maneuver between tables, bars and dance floor. The performers were a big plus! | 12

My experience at LIFE was just terrible. First off I was staying at the SLS for my birthday with my two best friends and the concierge arranged for the 3 of us to get in without a cover charge and a couple complimentary drinks as long as we would get to the club by 11pm; I thought it was a really nice gesture since we were already having some problems with the staying itself. We got there at 10:30pm it was a completely mess we first got in the VIP line and they told us to go to a different line because we only had our names in the guest list. well the other line consisted of a bunch of people pile all together by the bouncer after waiting for 45 minutes our promoter got us in to the next line where we would get ID checked that's when the hostess came in and said I had to pay 55 bucks to go in I told her about what concierge told me and she told me she couldn't honor it because it was pass 11pm. I would be totally cool if I had got there after 11pm but I did not and I told her so, she called the \""door manager\"" that btw was the exactly same guy I talked to at 10:30 in the first line he did recognized me and said yes you got here before 11 but is 11 now and I CAN'T DO NOTHING. I went over again about being a LUX guest at the hotel and it was my birthday and at the top of it he knew I was there on time, nothing happenned and I ended up going to Hakkasan where I did not pay to get even without guest list and ended up getting a deal on a bottle service and Tiesto was just great. I want to say that it wasn't about the money but it was about bad service and total disrespect with me and my friends as guest. | 01

Life isn't the biggest or flashiest club in Vegas, but I had a really awesome and memorable time this past weekend. My boyfriend and I were staying at the SLS and it just so happened that one of my favorite DJ's at the moment, 3LAU, was playing on Friday night. Convenient, perfect, and fate are words that come to mind. We arrived around 12:30am and luckily there wasn't much of a line, and my VIP host friend Bryan got us right in. The club is really nice and wasn't extremely busy, but that made getting some pics taken in the photo booth quick and easy. We got an actual copy and electronic version sent through email. Bathrooms were nearby and clean with cigarettes and gum available for purchase ($20 including tip). I also thought it was kind of cool that the sink area of the bathroom is communal. The dance floor was so much fun and definitely the place to be. They handed out light sticks and the DJ was amazing - perfect for fist pumping. | 12
|
Zzzzzzz! Boring, Crappy DJ (was there even a DJ or just shitty music spinning) small! Awful bottle service! I kinda hate everything about it! Even getting free comp'd bottle service it was awful! We left and actually went to our work bar! Maybe I'm spoiled by XS and Hakkasun I don't know but it was awful! | 01

I was at LIFE Nightclub last night at SLS Las Vegas. What a waste of a venue. I've never been to a club with louder \""music\"" in my life. And you can't even call it music, just a whole lot of base with nothing else going on. Imagine dancing to \""base\"" all night, yeah, a lot of fun huh? Not. AVOID AVOID AVOID.\n\nNow imagine the club with the loudest music you've ever been to, you know the really annoying kind that you think \""what the heck are they trying to do?\""....and then increase that by 3 times to the point that you cant stand it even if you wanted to because it actually hurts your eardrums and they feel like they're about to explode. AVOID AVOID AVOID.\n\nAnd that's at the entrance! When I walked down to the dance floor it was SO MUCH WORSE! How can you enjoy anything when there's no music, just a bunch of base, and feel like they're going to explode with every beat? You're going to dance when your ears are hurting and you can't have a good time? I don't think so. AVOID AVOID AVOID.\n\nThese people have no clue what good music is and the volume is just plain annoying. Not only that, it's dangerous. | 01
|
Last night was my first time here, and I enjoy Ingrosso. That aside it was too loud, waaayy too loud. It was impossible to talk to my friends. \n\nThe venue itself seems thrown together. It's too large--now I see why Marquee closes off sections as it gets later and why Light closes the balcony off on slow nights.\n\nYou won't see me here again. | 01
|
This is my first review and it's for a good reason ^__^ shout out to the super friendly staff \n\nI went to LiFE on Tuesday 12/30 to see Sebastian Ingrosso. \nWhen they started giving out free lightsticks, someone moved the box of lightsticks, causing my phone to slip into the crack between the stage and the speaker. I tried reaching for my phone but it was in too deep. The workers tried helping by using different hooks but they couldn't get it. \n\nThe next morning, we called the lost and found to see if they found an iPhone 6, and they said they hadn't. So my friends and I went over to the club again to try to talk to someone since I knew the exact location of my phone. The manager tried to look for it again, but couldn't find it. Thankfully, he let us in because we knew the location and we were able to show him where my phone was. We could clearly see my phone within all the confetti in the crack since it would light up and play the ringtone whenever we would call. Some of the workers who were setting up for the Steve Angello event tried helping out, and eventually the engineering team (I think) was called to help. \n\nSince they couldn't move the speakers (bolted to the ground), they eventually brought in vacuums, different hooks, and claw grabbers to pick up my phone. They almost got my phone at one point, but ended up dropping it at the last minute. Eventually, they couldn't see my phone anymore and so they gave up. In total, I think around eight workers tried helping me get my iPhone back. I was just really surprised that they put in so much effort to get my phone back LOL\n\nOn New Years, my friend got a call saying that they found my iPhone so we went to go pick it up at SLS ^__^ and later on in the day, one of the workers who had been trying to get my phone the day before, called to make sure that I got my phone. Turns out that they were able to pick it up by taping duct tape around a wooden stick and sliding it down LOL \n\nDespite all that, I had an amazing time at LiFE. There was barely any wait, quick service at the bar, and they gave out free lightsticks and tickets for free drinks! \n\nTL;DR: AMAZINGLY HELPFUL STAFF! they were so friendly with helping me get my iPhone back! I enjoyed the venue and the music ^_^ I had a great time here and would come back again :) | 12

Recently was in Vegas with a bunch of friends, ended up at LiFE Nightclub @ the SLS. We had such a great time thanks to Amir :) Can't wait to be back next month! If you're looking for a hook up, contact Amir 310-980-7426. | 12

The club itself is fine, been here a couple of times. It's not big and fancy like the other mega clubs on the strip, but it's still a nice venue. However, this place is either not crowded (even on New Years) or so crowded that it's a mess. \n\nA promoter (friend's contact) promised we will get in on a Saturday, however after we got here and waited for 2 hours, he told us another promoter lied to him and we can't get in because the club is at capacity, but they can, however, let the girls in (I guess girls don't take up \""capacity\""). I've been to Marquee, XS, Hakkasan plenty of times and have never had this much trouble getting in. I don't know how that happened or how the promoters work at sbe but they should probably figure out a better system so they are not constantly lying to customers. \n\nOur friends who bought tickets in advance couldn't even get in until 12:30, but at least they got in. \n\nSo if you really want to come here on a certain night, get a table or buy tickets, at least you will eventually get in. If you are counting on being the guestlist to get in, you should probably figure out a backup plan because there's a good chance you won't get in. Although given how empty the rest of SLS is on a Saturday night, I'm not sure how long this place will be around. | 01

Meh is a great way to summarize Foxtail.\n\nIts like a much smaller, lamer version of Surrender but acts like its better. With how overpriced the drinks are and how snobby the promoters are you would think Foxtail would have a A-list DJ line up. But nope... the likes of Calvin Harris or Hardwell wouldn't be caught dead in this C-list \""club\"".\n\nWalking into Foxtail, it seems like SLS didn't know what to do with the area next to the pool and decided to stick some lipstick on a pig and call it a dayclub. The pool area is below average and small. It shows its age and management has tried to cover up the faults with new cabanas and fresh paint; it doesn't really work. During the winter the pool is closed off and everyone is forced into what I can best describe as a little black box which serves as the nightclub.\n\nUnless you got a free table or your best friend's birthday has the misfortune of being hosted here, skip Foxtail and checkout Surrender, XS or any of the Strip's much better nightlife offerings. | 01

Visited the Sayers Club and the other establishments inside SLS opening week. It was a Monday night. \n\nWe parked at 9:30 in the garage, after the valet said they were \""full\"" with their hands out. Valet was almost empty, and this new crew of newbies (admittedly not any of the few veterans of the industry I understand they did hire) was obviously hustling the property for $20 tips to park. I'm not adverse to having a $20 option on a crowded night, but you drive past the valet lot on the way into the garage - empty. This kind of thing tends to happen when the typical clientele is not tipping, and the valets want to park less and get paid more. \n\nWe arrived at Sayers Club at 9:40 p.m. They had already done last call!\n\nWe walked through the bar and to the outside area. It looks nicer from the street. The design is disjointed and partially blocked off by other event space. We got the canned speech about the 'battle of the bands' they plan to have as nightly entertainment. Sounds like high school approach to what is billed as a sophisticated venue - no thanks. And what's with closing at 9:30 on 'school nights'? They told me they will only be open later Thurs, Fri, Sat. What a joke. \n\nSUGGESTIONS: \n\nI've been here 45 years. I worked at the Sahara 35 years ago. I have friends who worked there when it closed, and work there now. The PR says SLS is after locals. Ok, let's get local then.\n\n1. No 'school nights' hours. Stay open until at least midnight, better 2am\n2. Put a dress code in the club. No slobs. Grown men have no business wearing shorts into a restaurant or bar. Get serious.\n3. No 'battle of the bands' BS, no 'dueling piano's' hustle. Get sophisticated lounge singers and musicians which you will find at La Casa Cigar Lounge, The Barrymore, Zebra Lounge and others. Not background music, but not loud either - sophisticated. Grownups like to have conversations while we have a serious drink. If you want serious bucks spent, don't cater to the mating rituals of the twenty-somethings.\n4. Iron out that patio deal. Get rid of the gates or whatever that is and get some good seating out there, with no piped music unless there is no live music inside, and if you do pipe it in, make it sophisticated sound.\n\nThe slogan of SLS is \""Be Legendary\"". Sayers Club is the high end bar at the SLS, and is far from legendary. \n\nBut it could be. Opening week is tough, and there are always bugs to work out. I hope they step up. I'd be back if they do. | 01

Boring and over priced on a Friday night. I'll state up front that I can afford this place, we are not the demographic, but if this is what the 21-35 singles have to experience for nightlife at the SLS, Yikes, I feel sorry for them! We got there at 10:45pm and the crowd started arriving. A DJ was doing a good job on the turntable (or mp3 player), but there was no dance floor, so everyone was standing around. We saw that a band was setting up and thought we would hang out. I went to get a couple of drinks and learned they quickly it cost me $36 (way over priced) and my signature \""Old Fashion\"" only filled the glass half way. We sat on one of the comfortable couches only to be kicked off by a bouncer. That's fine, but if the couches are for VIP's or reserved, put a card on the table or tell people when they go in. So we went outside where there was enough outdoor furniture and attempted to have a conversation, but within 5 minutes another bouncer came over and told everyone that the patio was being closed and to go inside. So now the place is crowded and we are left standing. After 15 minutes and milking our drinks, I wondered where the band was. When I asked a bouncer, he said they would be out at 11:30pm. So we thought we would wait another 15 minutes, then 20, then 25, and at 11:45 we asked a bartender where the band was. He said they would come out whenever they felt like it, but are suppose to play a quick set by 12:30. I was already bored and all there was to do is watch everyone trying to talk over the loud music. I never saw anyone getting a second drink, and some guys weren't touching their drinks for over 20 minutes. Others were suckers and bought girls drinks, and all the girls had to do was take selfies with the guys. Total Suckers! By midnight we left, I couldn't take it anymore. I would have had more fun blowing my $36 dollars in 10 minutes on the slots or at craps. This was a total waste of time and money, and I could afford this place. If you have deep pockets to burn through money you don't care about, while you sit or stand listening to music. If that defines fun for you. Enjoy. | 01

We are the target demographic for Sayer's Club and we are locals. Having said that, we were treated like stupid tourists and will never go back. Friday night at the bar - had drink tickets from a VIP host - ordered 2 drinks and 2 bottles of water - $32. What? Yes as it turns out, their policy is to apply the drink tickets to the \""lowest priced\"" drinks on your order, which in our case was the bottled water. I know this is Vegas but I've never been charged for bottled water when ordering a drink, nor have I had my drink tickets used for said water. We left very quickly, yet waited forever in the cold for the valet to bring our car. That's 2 locals they just lost to poor customer service and lack of respect. I now see why they're suffering $$ and having to lay off staff..... | 01

The ONLY reason ..and I repeat the ONLY reason I stepped foot in this pretentious, Anglo filled, whack club was because my aunt was turning 60 and someone told her they \""knew someone\"" that was performing at an R&B club on the strip and could \""get us in\"". I KNEW this was a mistake when I pulled up and walked in..\n\nThe gin and tonic was $16.00 -- the same amount I just paid for a MEAL at a BUFFET.. get the _____ out of here! There were all of these \""VIP\"" areas filled to the brim with teeny tiny dresses, weak suit jackets, over processed blonde hair and \""bros\""..The VIP booths were $550.00 for a love seat sized couch and a bottle with setups. NO thanks.. I stood and looked mad..\n\nThen the \""R&B\"" performer comes on stage and he looks like Jason Mraz and kicks his \""R&B\"" set off with Calvin Harris' \""Blame\"".. are you kidding me.. what kind of R&B is this? \n\nI was so grossed out..that I apologized to my aunt (who I think was so utterly & totally confused at this point as to what was happening that she was frozen in place) and told her that I was going to play some penny slots and I would meet them when they were ready to go..So i proceeded to leave..find my lucky penny machine and drink FREE DRINKS for the rest of the night. \n\nWhat a waste of my good jeans.. | 01

For me, customer service is everything, at Sayers Club it isn't. If you have questions, issues, work with your patron, and they'll be loyal to you. Don't refuse, or say no. Sorry. Tough. Especially when it's a reasonable request.\n\nI originally intended on attending a Hollywood event by Sayers, but after finishing buying a ticket, I noticed the ticket was for Las Vegas. Your website redirected me to Vegas instead of Hollywood. This is a programming error, I selected Hollywood.\n\nAll I asked is for a refund, exchange, or something, so I can go to Hollywood instead of Vegas. I still wanted to be a patron, but instead, I get a flat out no. We don't do that.\n\nBlanket policies are the worst, it shows you don't care about your customer and only want the money. So enjoy my $90 Sayers SLS, I won't be attending. I hope it was worth losing a customer for life.\n\nI'll be sure to tell plenty of other people to avoid you at all costs as well. | 01

This is a must visit spot! So glad these guys finally got so sense into them and came to Mill Ave! ;) Amazing food, personable friendly service. \""Ike's for the love of sandwiches\""... What is there not to love!? They also have great Veggie/Vegan options if you're into that sorta thing. Thank you, Marco, Patrick and staff for the great experience! I had \""The love triangle\"" Veggie chicken, honey mustard, BBQ, pepper jack, Swiss, cheddar + avocado, grilled onions, and jalape\u00f1o on Dutch crunch. W/SD hot sauce. ~Mmmmm :) | 12

This place might be great for people with dietary concerns but I'm not thrilled that I paid $10 for a sandwich that was mostly bread and lettuce. I ordered the Matt Cain, which has turkey, roast beef, and salami. 3 kinds of meat so I'm thinking it's going to be loaded. I was wrong. Not only that but it was pretty sloppy, meaning the meat tended to squish out of the opposite end that I was biting into. \n\nI'm not deducting points for this but I believe I noticed another reviewer point out that Ike's is a \""local establishment\"". Sorry to burst your bubble but this place is a chain from the Bay Area in case the names of the menu items had not tipped you off. | 01

I had first heard of Ike's while watching a Man vs Food episode and had been wanting to try it ever since. I even it had it bookmarked for my next visit to San Francisco. I'm so glad I don't have to wait to visit San Fran to try these delicious sandwiches, since they have recently expanded to Phoenix. My first time here was at Yelp Community Event, where we were able to have a tasting menu of 4 different sandwiches. This was perfect for first timers as there's so many options to choose from. I chose from an experimental tasting menu, and my husband had the spicy tasting menu, so we were able to taste 8 different sandwiches all together. Every sandwich we tried was delicious. It's really hard to pick a favorite, the highlights were a buffalo chicken style sandwich, the Mozzarella's Big Cheese which had chicken and honey on it, the Carne Asada fries sandwich (which included just that) and the dessert sandwich of nutella and marshmallow fluff. There's a ton of substitutions available along with vegetarian and vegan options, and their bread is fresh as it's par-baked daily and then baked to order. The staff here is really passionate about their food and extremely nice and helpful. I will definitely return for Ike's amazing sandwiches. | 12

Awesome sandwich place in downtown Tempe. I actually had been meaning to try this place in Northern California but didn't get a chance while I was there. Was super pumped to find this in Arizona. It's in a fantastic location. \n\nIt's a little overwhelming going there for the first time because there are so many options to choose from. Ultimately, I chose the Bear sandwich after asking the worker a million questions and prioritizing my favorite sandwich fillings. The Bear was freakin amazing and I can see why people are obsessed with this place. The sandwich had jalape\u00f1o poppers, jalape\u00f1os, prime rib, garlic aioli (dirty sauce), mushrooms, Baked french fries, served on Dutch crunch bread.\n\nWe went during happy hour so we got free chips and a drink...so that was an added bonus. I definitely recommend this place--friendly and fast service, decent prices for a ton of food, and a fun atmosphere. Probably best for lunch though. | 12
|
Great place...HUGE menu....maybe read it online before you stroll in...or you will stand there like it's 1995 and you are trying to figure out what movie to rent from Blockbuster. \n\nAll our sandwiches were great. Fries were good, nothing special to me. \n\nGot really busy towards lunch time, very limited seating. Not a bad thing though! Place is booming. | 12
|
I liked the variety of sandwiches available. My mom and I each got something different and then traded a half so we could sample a couple of them. By far my favorite thing was the fried zucchini with pesto dipping sauce. The zucchini was perfectly fried deliciousness and the pesto was fresh and wonderful. The girls at the register were friendly, but they did miss a couple of special requests we made. In their defense, we were new to Ike's and asking lots of questions. The mistakes in our order weren't bad enough to complain about or send back the food.\n\nUltimately, the reason I'm rating Ike's 4 stars and not 5 is price. We felt it was a bit pricey for sandwiches, although they are huge. Two people could easily split one. So if you're a penny pintcher like me, bring a friend and share a sandwich. | 12
|
It's crazy as a Bay Area resident it took me being in Tempe to try Ikes. All the raving is totally justified. There are so many options and creative sandwiches on the menu. I loved the San Francisco theme to it and the dutch crunch bread was like a little taste of home. I ordered the Michael Jordan (basically a meatball sub) and seriously cannot say anything bad about it. My boyfriend ordered the Matt Cain which was also delicious. Best sandwich spot I've had in the desert and maybe even ever. Can't wait to try more choices on the menu | 12
|
ok. so they are doing somethings right i guess. they are friendly, the place is clean. they have a pretty creative, extensive menu. that said i wasn't impressed enough to ever go back. i went there because i was walking my dog and wanted to stop for lunch they had outdoor seating so i thought i'd give it a shot. they are very chintsy (if that's even a word lol) with their dressings. my sandwich was mostly bread. i had the Count of Monte Chase-O sandwich which features ham, turkey, swiss cheese and strawberry preserves. unique huh? you couldn't tell, like i said, i tasted only the bread. if they would be even a little more generous with the lettuce, onions, meats and condiments. i like a sandwich that is as much on my face as it is in my mouth. this wasn't it. nothing fell out of this sandwich! | 01

This is the best place ever!! \nI called about my iPhone 4S to be repaired. The front and back were both cracked, the gentlemen said no problem. I went down there it was very reasonable to repair and was done in an hour. Picked it up and it was like brand new. Loved the service and I would go back anytime. Thanks guys!!!! | 12
|
My first time visit they are awesome\nGreat service amazing knowledge\nThey did fix my iPhone 5 in 25 minutes\nI'm so thankful client for ever :) | 12
|
Don't take your phones here. I brought in my iphone yesterday to get the screen replaced. While they did a good job on the repair, there became another issue. On the way to get my screen replaced I was charging my phone in my truck. Well after the repair to my screen I can no longer charge my phone. I went in today to let them know about the issue and said I had a bad battery. Well I just upgraded my battery 6 months ago I told the employee behind the counter and they did not have an answer for me. I told them my phone was charging right before the screen replacement was done as well. He took the back plate off today to check the connections and said it was the battery. Well when I left the store I realized that there is now a purple spot on the screen that they replaced yesterday. Well there goes $39 bucks for shitty service.\n\nDON\""T BRING YOUR DEVICES HERE!!!!!!!! | 01

This place is awesome! I used to go to another iPhone repair store but this one is far superior! Justin helped me when I came in to get my 5s screen repaired. It only took about 15 minutes and it's just like new now! There was a little hiccup with the initial repair, but he fixed it right away and threw in a freebie to make up for the extra time. It took WAY less time than any other place I've ever been and their customer service is excellent! They are open 10-7 everyday which is great because other places I called STILL haven't returned my call to inquire about pricing, which is very affordable here. My friend referred me and I'm so glad she did! I will definitely send all my friends there and I will return if I every need such services again. Thanks! | 12
|
Came in with my friend's mom's phone not knowing if there was any hope for it. Justin was very professional and quickly was able to diagnose the other problems with the phone as well. The phone looks fantastic and now has working buttons! Thank you so much for the excellent service!! | 12

Another new name but the same overpriced stuff. The theater is getting more and more run-down looking. Maybe the new owners will spruce it up? I hope so--the building isn't very old...\n\nBut expect more of the same so far with Carmike Cinemas as we have experienced with Digiplex and Ultrastar before it. | 01

why does our theater keep getting bought out by all these shitty companies? amc or harkins please buy this theater in surprise, we beg of you! | 01

Let me start by saying that I am fashionably challenged. I'm not into the current trends or what's \""in style\"". I'm a comfort and functionality girl, if it happens to be in style, that's just a bonus for me. I generally know WHAT looks good...I just don't know HOW to make things look good. Because of this, I never go shopping without taking a friend with me, because I don't know how to piece outfits/accessories together. \n\nHaving said that, I got bored one day and decided to try shopping on my own. I'm also a cheapskate (no pun on the name of the store intended). Because fashion isn't a huge deal to me, I don't like spending a lot of money to look good. I'd sold a few things at Uptown before they opened to the public (that was a great experience too!) and I loved the stuff I saw. So I went shopping all by myself. Mind you, I'm 30 and have had maybe one or two other successful solo shopping trips, ever. \n\nThe girls in the store were a HUGE help. Leah first approached me to see if I needed any help, I did! She helped me pick out a few things and told me how a few shirts \""worked\"" that didn't make sense to me. I tried everything on and came out to show Leah every time. By the third or fourth outfit, Mystic was also helping out. Both girls were super patient with me and my many, many stupid questions. They would both run and grab things for me that they thought may go better. They also told me how to accessorize outfits. But above all, they were honest with me! If something didn't look good on me, they told me (in a very sweet way) that that piece probably wasn't the best option for me. This was the most appreciated help I could have ever received. Generally sales associates tell you everything looks good. Then you go home or show a friend and they make a funny face and tell you to return it. Having Mystic and Leah's help was like shopping with a good friend!\n\nI left that day with a $96 bill. I bought: a super nice, warm coat...4 shirts...a maxi skirt...and the cutest scarf I'd ever seen. I wished the owner of the store had been there that day so I could tell them how great Leah and Mystic were. But, since she wasn't...here I am. :) You've got some great employees who really know what it means to help a customer! Thanks to Leah and Mystic for the great service and sorry it's taken me a couple of weeks to post this! | 12

Beautiful store, wonderful customer service, and delicious cupcakes! I love the variety and the different flavored. Try the pink champagne it's amazing. | 12
|
These folks came thru with a Sesame \nStreet themed cake for my daughters first bday. Due to copy right laws they couldn't technically create the exact characters but instead they helped create a scene that incorporated her character toys! It was a huge hit! The cupcake toppers were ordered thru someone else but the cupcakes were AWESOME TOO! | 12
|
I have been going to the place for years to get my cupcake fix. Their cupcakes are delicious and moist with just the right amount of sweetness. I feel that they don't overwhelm their cupcakes with frosting like many places do, or at least other places that I've been to, and their cream cheese frosting is so good! Can't say enough great things about this place. You gotta try for yourself and I promise you won't be disappointed! | 12
|
I've had three cakes made my Sugarlips and they continue to amaze me with their artistry; the cake is pretty darn tasty, too!! They really captured what we wanted for our wedding cake and we still have the very detailed handmade dragon topper still in the fridge because we can't bring ourselves to eat what is probably really tasty white chocolate because it's simply too beautifuly crafted. I didn't have anything particular in mind for my grandmother's 90th birthday other than the topsy turvey and to make it blue. Everyone was taken away at the fun, vibrant and delicious cake. I'm excited to see what they come up with for her 92nd birthday next month. I can't say enough about this company and I'm excited the Phoenix area has this kind of talent and taste. | 12

I stopped by on NYE. The place looked clean, but I didn't stay very long. They had several flavors and I chose Red Velvet and Salted Caramel. Mmmmmmkay, dat's tasty! Frosting on RV is OMGyum. Cake is decent.\nSC is regular cake, but good fluffy frosting and a noticeable salty taste. I'll be returning here to try their other flavors. | 12

Been to chiropractors off and on for years. Dr. Owen is head and shoulders above any I've ever encountered.\nDr. Owen gets right to the issue, explains everything in words you can understand, and does not \""string it out\"" - and he doesn't try to load you up with all kinds of accessory items.\nHis concern is strictly for your well-being, and it shows.\nThanks ever so much! | 12
|
I have been going to Dr Owen for over 20 years now & he is the best chiropractor in Vegas. he really connects & knows his patients. He takes great care of them as well. I would refer Dr Owen to EVERYBODY | 12

I am an always changing client! Kiko has always been able to direct and bring focus to the best style and cut for me with just the few things I tell him about what I want at that moment and he gives me the cut and color that I envisioned..He listens, and what makes him special is that he puts so much energy into making sure you leave his chair not only a satisfied client...but also a repeat client! He's that good you'll want to come back for more! | 12

We got two plates of the \""chef's choice\"" and they were all terrible! Most of them sweet and had nothing to do with sushi. They dropped the ball. Worst sushi I have ever had! | 01
|
They have clearly no ethics, and have no idea how to run a business. Sadly, they are wasting the huge opportunity of this amazing concept. | 01

We ordered delivery from Famous Potato through Grub Hub and I have to say we were pretty disappointed. We had a 6 topping potato and 6 topping mashed potato bowl. The potatoes tasted ok but the amount of toppings were really skimpy (MUCH skimpier than the spoonfuls shown in the video on their website). \n\nThe most disappointing part of the order was that we paid $3.00 for an order of croquettes which turned out to be exactly 6 tater tots with a little cheese sauce poured over them. Really? 6 tater tots? HUGE ripoff for $3.00!!! | 01
|
Worst experience ever.....I ordered the phone online I got the food on time but it was missing a lot of details and sides it's my first and last time ordering from famous potato | 01
|
really bad and disappointed experience at Vegas. The time we were exploring the manu. The owner told us any guest in the restaurant without ordering their spicy chicken should be our the restaurant. At their door advertisement, it writes the shanghai little buns are special offers in order to thanks guests support in the past 8 years. We ordered the second plate of that buns, the owner told us only the first is served with the special offer. The food their is small portion but expensive. The 15% service fee is added automaticly when we wanna check out. How can this service deserve that much service fees. DO NOT GO THERE ANYMORE. Totally disappointed. | 01
|
rice noodle is really bad. Staffs are not friendly.15% service fee added automatically. | 01
|
totally shit, shit service. The waiter told us to move the dishes ourselves when we needed to move to another table. I never write a review before but this restaurant is terrible | 01
|
Went in for the noodle poster on their wall, but the real noodle was sooo bad that made me lose my apperti! The noodle soup smells turning bad already. Also, they charged 15% tips automatically for such bad serves-- we waiting at front door about 5 mins to get the first waiter came to talk to us; they serve the dishes without rice so we ask for rice(charged) THREE TIMES until we finally got it. Never going there again. | 01

I have been going to Shaina for a while now for all my waxing needs. I love her new location. It is so close to mountain's edge. It is a great addition to the southwest part of the valley. Ladies getting a brazilian never gets any easier. However, you are in great hands with Shaina. She has such an upbeat personality. Shaina will have you laughing during your entire appointment that you actually forget your getting a brazilian. Her technique is quick, so you're not there thinking how much longer is this going to take. Check her out if you live in the southwest part of the valley. | 12

Shaina is absolutely amazing! This was the first time that Shaina has done my eyebrow waxing and it was so nice that she spent time getting to know exactly how I liked them and what I wanted. She gave my suggestions on what she thought would look best for me. I felt so comfortable with her doing them and loved that she wasn't rushed. She took her time and made sure I was happy with them. She did them right the first time and I didn't need or want anything changed but if I did she would have happily of done it and not acted annoyed, like previous places I have gone to. After she was done she even gave recommendations on how to keep my eyebrows looking good in between visits with her. I didn't have an appointment and just popped in and she was able to get my right back, which was nice since I had my daughter with me. The place is decorated really cute and is super clean and inviting. Definitely recommending her to my friends and family. I just recently moved to California and am sad that I won't be able to come to her regularly, especially since I just found her. | 12
|
Seriously awesome and adorable little boutique. This was my first time getting my legs waxed (hubby was coming home from deployment) they told me everything I needed to know and made me feel so comfortable!! And to boot it stung a little...but really not as bad as I thought! will totally be returning :) | 12
|
Shaina was very friendly! Everything was clean and hygienic. She did a great job! When I was looking for a good place to go to, hygiene was #1 on my list. Wipes were provided to freshen up, she wore gloves, fresh paper was laid on the waxing bed, there was no double dipping, gentle and effective wax, fabric sheets to remove the wax were used instead of pressed or paper ones, and she used focused light throughout to make sure she found all the hairs. She then went in with tweezers to remove the few hairs that were left. It was a wonderful experience. I got there late and I was still taken in. It also only took about 15 minutes. Shaina made it as painless as possible and also had me do breathing techniques for the more sensitive areas. It was a breeze! Also, on the website they also let you know not to worry about trimming which was nice so I didn't have to worry about preparing beforehand. | 12

Not impressed with these scam artists. I went to The Range at Ballantyne for the first time yesterday. After I got checked in and watched the safety video, I had to wait 10 minutes while they figured out which lane another customer was on so they could charge him. It was like watching the three stooges use a computer for the first time. Once I got on the range, I was happy to find that it was state of the art and had a good 30 minute shooting session using a pistol. Then the bait and switch happened. It is supposed to be $19/hr pistol, $25/hr rifle. When I was rung up, it came up as $25/hr. They said because I used FMJ I was charged the rifle rate. Pistols rate is only allowed if you use Total Metal Jacket (TMJ). Not once was this brought up until it was time to pay. Because they only allow full hour sessions and after tax, my 30 minutes of shooting pistol cost $27!!! NEVER AGAIN! | 01

We're so excited that we found a great, locally owned pizza place by our house. We ordered for the second time this evening. Our first time we got the buffalo chicken pizza, mozzarella sticks, and jalapeno poppers. Tonight we got the BBQ chicken pizza, mozzarella sticks, and chicken fingers. I highly recommend all of these items. They were all amazingly delicious! The staff is super nice and delivery is fast! I love this place! | 12
|
I discovered this place a few weeks ago and can't stay away from it. Not only is their pizza great but the Joe Philly's Burger is the most unique and delicious burger I have had in Vegas since I moved here a year ago. The food is lovingly cooked by the owner and you can tell he really has passion for what he does. The staff are all friendly and you can not beat the fantastic prices. This is my favorite spot for tasty fast food. | 12

I've been to Joe's 4x now with friends. Each time we all have tried different items on the menu to try and get something we found that we actually liked. We've tried the pizza, wings, burgers, and Philly cheese steaks. Each time we all left feeling like we didn't want to go back, but it's the kind of location you wish you could.\n\nPizza - pizza hut quality crust & sauce quality with papa murphy's (frozen pizza) quality toppings. The pizza was a mess. The toppings rolled right off of the pizza and ended up on your plate in a big mess rather than in your mouth. The quality of the toppings were mediocre. We got a supreme pizza (large) and it fed 2 of us but wasn't something I would go back to eat again. You could get a higher quality pizza at a franchised pizza delivery service (for less $$ too) even though we dined in.\n\nBurgers - had a western burger and it was decent. It's not a burger joint but the patty and bun were good. The fries weren't good. On multiple visits we tried the fries and each time we couldn't try more than a couple. They were hot, but the taste was incredibly bland and tasted worse than if they had just used a frozen bag from the supermarket.\n\nWings - the best thing at Joe's. Well breaded, tangy sauce. Multiple members of the group stated this was consistently the best thing they tried. The only problem was that I wouldn't go to a pizza place to get wings. This is kind of the general problem - too many options on the menu with not enough focus. Is it a pizza place? Deli? Burger Joint?\n\nService - there are always a lot of employees. They all seem nice enough but almost every time we have been there the staff acts as if they've never taken an order before. Again, the staff is polite but untrained or socially awkward.\n\nWater - we were charged $1 for a cup of tap water and we weren't told about that before we paid for it. If we would have known we would be charged for tap water we would've gotten a soda. \n\nThis is a place I really wish I could like. The people making the food and taking the orders seem very nice. It's also local, so I want it to succeed but it just seems to lack focus around the menu and the ingredient quality. I know this place has (12) 5 star reviews which I think are all from the staff so I wanted to write something realistic to help other yelpers in their food decisions. | 01

\""Meh. I've experienced better.\"" sums up my experience with the place. I've been here a few times and have tried a couple of different items and have pretty much had the same experience each time.\n\nThe Goods: Friendly service, decent wings & good crust & sauce on the pizza. \n\nThe Not-So-Goods:\n\nIt's kind of hard for me to pin-point what exactly is wrong with this place. The servers are friendly, but they don't seem to know what can and can't be done. Example: I ask for a small cup of water and here is what I was replied with the times I asked - 1) Grab a bottle of water and it should be fine. 2) Sure, here's a cup and you can use the fountain. 3) Ok, I will give you a cup but be sure not to fill it up with soda...AND THEY THEY CHARGED ME FOR FOUNTAIN SODA ANYWAY (I didn't realize until after I paid). \n\nTo continue with the lack of consistency, even though we eat in every single time, we are often brought out food already boxed up as if we ordered pick-up or delivery. One time once we ordered a pizza, the server walked out with the pizza in the box without any plates or utensils (you might ask why utensils...read later). At least attempt to cater towards your dine-in visitors. \n\nLets talk about the pizza. I am a major pizza enthusiast and I don't believe there is a such thing as a bad pizza. But I've never been more disappointed with a pie in such a long time.\n\nI tried the supreme pizza and outside of the crust and sauce...everything was such a complete hope mess. It just seemed like they threw on numerous frozen vegetables, and then caked a lot of cheese on the top of the toppings and assumed that was it. The peppers, and onions weren't fully cooked and the toppings were so heavy, I could barely even hold a slice without all of the cheese and toppings falling off. This is why having utensils would be nice so I can at least some pieces and eat the pizza with the cheese and toppings in one bite.\n\nThis pizza would be somewhat passable if they only delivered, but if I'm dining in, I would expect some kind of quality increase since the pizza would generally be fresher. I severely question the reviews that say this is the best pizza in town. I understand that this is a local establishment, but that doesn't mean it should get favorable reviews for unfavorable flavors. \n\nIs this better than Digorno? Nope\nIs this better than Little Caesars? Sorry...but not really. I like LC though, but why would I come to a place that has lower quality pizza for double the price of LC ($8 for a supreme)?\n\nDespite the fact that some of their other food is decent (mainly the wings), I place a heavy weight on the pizza itself. I really wanted this to be a great place, but #soniamdissapoint.\n\nIt just seems like they are on the cusp of making a damn good pizza, hopefully they take actual criticism and will make proper adjustments. If anyone is wondering why am I so critical of the pizza, it's because it's a pizzeria.\n\n#idonotproofreadsomyreviewsmightsoundlikegibberish | 01

We ordered the Philly sandwich (husband said it was good) and also had a White Pizza. The fries could use some work. They tasted very greasy like the oil needed changing or something. It was greasy and brown. Yuck. The pizza was just \""okay\"". The reason I say that is because I'm a garlic lover and the garlic tasted a little off, like maybe they are using bottled garlic or something. Staff are super friendly and nice. Hope they make it. | 01

This pizza is very mediocre, and looks like a blind drunk assembled it. I also asked for parmesan and chili pepper. . . they didn't come. The up side is that it is edible, and was open at 10 pm on a thursday. So that's nice. I am really surprised that this place got 4.5 stars. I am assuming that most of the people who eat here either don't get pizza, or are drunk. I would order from here again if I had no options though. So take that info however you like. | 01

I've tried Joe's Philly several times after I received a menu on my door a few months ago. I have to say I've had better, but it's a decent place to grab a cheap, quick lunch.\n\nI'm not sure why it's called \""Joe's Philly's Pizza\"" as that seems kind of confusing. Are they about the pizza? Are they about the Philly Cheesesteak? I didn't know that Philadelphia was known for their pizza.\n\nAnyway, in three visits, I've ordered their cheesesteak twice and it was pretty good. I've eaten a lot of cheesesteak sandwiches in my life - I would have to say this ranked somewhere in the middle to lower spectrum. However, the lunch special comes with fries and a fountain drink for around $6. I do have to comment that the fries were pretty soggy and under salted. The sandwich itself is not bad, it could use more meat, cheese and onions and peppers. The bread was decent as well.\n\nI've also gotten the chicken wings. The wings were actually pretty good. Not the best I've had, but definitely not the worst. The amount of buffalo sauce really varies. Sometimes they've smothered the wings and other times there's hardly been any on them. Either way, I think it tastes just like Jack's Hot Sauce, so I'll just put that on if I go back again.\n\nThe service is pretty quick. They usually have your order to you within 10 minutes (usually less). All in all, it's not a bad place, but fairly mediocre. I'll have to try the pizza if I go there again. | 01

Its been about a month since the last time I ordered anything from here. I ordered about 3 times in about a month or two, and then pretty much gave up. I saw some really good reviews about this place, and was excited thinking finally I can get some good pizza. First time I tried it I said to myself that it was ok, maybe it was a fluke. Second time it was kind of the same thing. Funny, I even tried a third time and uh, well, its not good. There's nothing good about this place in my opinion. I think that it is almost impossible that this place has a single legit 5 star review. The people seem very friendly over the phone so its not like I'm venting over a bad experience or anything like that. Its just the food is not even really average. From the pizza, to the wings, to the cheesesteak. I tried quite a few things just hoping that it would be at least decent so I could have a convenient place to order from, and no luck. I wont be ordering from here again, and right now I'm looking at a bunch of 2 star reviews here on the screen about this place, and they are really accurate. It is kind of irritating to me that I think this place had like 10+ reviews total that all gave them 5 stars. Not a single 4 or less star review, and the food is really below average. Not cool. | 01
|
Pizza was super greasy, they took a slice of cheese pizza and put all the toppings on it then melted it in the oven... so the ham and sausage was cold. Also 3.50 for one slice totally not worth it. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this place. | 01
|
1st time here and let me say not impressed with the service and food! Right when we walked in we waited awhile before someone finally greeted us, and all we can stare at are her hickied covered neck! Lol. So professional. We sat down and waited, and noticed the bartender(?) put cups over her ear/hair while talking to her co workers and then put them back on the shelf! (Where are the managers?!) seems like teenagers running the place.\nI ordered the \""jumbo\"" shredded chicken burrito, and let me say you can get so much more for 7 bucks at chipotle and taste way better. My burrito taste way to salty, no flavor whatsoever! Just go to Taco Bell and get a soft taco you'll get the same product taste for a cheaper price.\n\""Welcome to your new addiction\"" \nNo thanks I'll pass and stick to chipotle with good service and food! | 01

My husband and I just had dinner here and let me tell you we will not be back.....if you are craving authentic Mexican food, don't go here everything tasted very processed and out of a can and over priced for a small amount of food...... | 01
|
I have been here three times already. The taco plate is really tasty, along with the cilantro rice. The restaurant is always clean. That sums up what was good, now for the rest. The service is utterly disgraceful. They don't listen to your order at all, even when you send the food back. I involved the onsite district manager who had nothing but attitude to offer me. The food is great, but the service sucks. I won't be back. | 01
