I have been here a few times and have enjoyed it each time, with a few things they can improve on. The service is great. The staff is very friendly and always offer to heat it up if I’d like to eat it there. They have a variety of options available. I always get the Lahmajune and the Borek. The Lahmajune can be a hit or miss as sometimes it’s really good but sometimes the flavor balance seems off. I have always enjoyed the borek. One thing that can be improved is covering the food or keeping it somewhere it can stay fresh. The borek and other bread is left out for display, but I don’t know how long it has been sitting there and there was one time I saw a fly flying around and landing on the food. It didn’t leave a good taste in my mouth to see them take borek that I ordered and put it in a bag for me. Another thing that can be improved is the temperature. I asked to heat up the borek since I was taking it to go but eating it right away, but when I took a bite into the borek it was still a little cold. Overall, it is still my go-to Lahmajune and borek spot as the food is generally good, and it is also convenient location-wise. It would be an amazing spot if what was mentioned above were improved.

Istanbul Grill Menu with Prices 6204 S Cooper St, Arlington

Well this was my first visit to Istanbul grill! I have to say I was very pleased! I love that it is BYOB, so we brought a bottle of wine. We were greeted at the door and seated right away. The establishment was very nice and cozy! We ordered hummus, Babaganoush, Tabuleh, Cigarette Borek and Spinach Borek for appetizers. Our appetizers were so filling and so delicious!! Our main entrees were Lamb Chops and Grilled Salmon. I have to say this was some of the best salmon I’ve ever eaten. Very moist and flavorful! The veggies and rice went so well with the salmon. My friend ate the Lamb chops and they looked and smelled Amazing. Overall, Great experience and we will be going back!!

Sipan Bakery – Menu with Prices – 1250 W Glenoaks Blvd C, Glendale

Savory and spice and everything nice here at Sipan Bakery! When I first drove by, I saw “bakery” and stopped by to pick up a sweet treat. What I found instead was one of the most delicious Middle Eastern bakeries serving mostly baked savory goodies made fresh at this location. My go to is the Mushroom Beoreks ($2.00) and the Spinach Beoreks ($2.25). Each of these doughy pockets is filled with the ingredients (vegan friendly) and baked until golden brown. They are a delicious snack and freeze well. Another one of my favorites is the Zahtar Maneish ($2.00) and Lahmajune ($2.00). The Zahtar had a heavy thyme, sumac and sesame flavoring. So much flavor with each bite! The Lahmajune reminded me of a Middle Eastern thin crust pizza and I thoroughly enjoyed while it was prepared fresh. I have brought these as gifts and my guests have raved over them. If you never been to a Middle Eastern Bakery, this would be a perfect choice with all the home made selection including wraps, paninis, a twist on tacos and salads. They are located in a small strip mall and open 7 days a week. The owner is extremely friendly and went out of his way to complete my order even though they were out of stock. As for sweets, you’ll have to keep on looking, but for savory this hits the spot.

Kyoto Sushi – Menu with Prices – 5506 Saratoga Blvd, Corpus Christi

Worse place ever. The only good thing I can say is the server tried his best. We ordered the dumplings and sushi. The dumplings were over steamed so the wonton covering tore apart easily leaving you to just pick at the meat in the middle. The sushi took way too long to be served, and it was low quality grade. Worse of all, there were several flying gnats around our food, I even killed two and showed the server the dead flies on the plate and table. Horrible experience, the owner and manager didn’t care to take of us, but to offer free desserts. Who wants to eat at that point when flies land on your food. Who knows what’s going on in the kitchen, how many flies are landing on everybody’s food. As we were leaving the server managed to get us a free order of yellowfin Tuna sashimi. We were already trying to leave, but I tried a taste anyways, and it tasted like bad quality fish. My wife and I spent $90 there, it would’ve been nice if they discounted our ticket, I would’ve given them an extra star for doing that. We would usually give restaurants a second try, but never this place. Let me save you some time and money and NEVER try this place out. You’re better off going across the street to HEB and buying your sushi at the little stand.

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen – Menu with Prices – 4511 Saufley Field Rd, Pensacola

I visited this new store on (12/14/18) around 9pm, when i arrived ,the line was around the building,after sitting there for 20 mins just to order my food. As i went to order.my food the person taking the order was rude over the intercom,and i had to repeat myself 3 timea because she was apparently talking to other employees instead of taking my order,after ordering i sat for another 10 mins watching 3 different cars infront of me leave. So after 15 total.mins i make it to the window. So i go to.pay for my food. There was 2 people on there phones walking around chit-chatting with eachother. So one girl come to the window and tells me its gonna be another 15 mins for my meal(which was suppost to be a 5 piece strip meal) and asked me if that was okay…No it wasnt but after a 10hr shift. I was hungry and just wanted my food. I WILL NEVER go to this store again. I didn’t leave out the drive thur till 10pm. Customer service was rude and i didnt even get what i ordered.i was given a 4 piece spicy mix box not strips. This store needs to fix there drive thur times.and get better employees.

Umbrellas 1296 – Menu with Prices – 1296 1st St, Sarasota

Arrived and waited at the bar for my 4 friends.. Ordered a martini and had to listen to an argument with the bartender and another staff member right infront of us.. Not classy at all.. Happy hour prices were very good and drinks were excellant.. I was told twice by a staff member that we would have the window seat table.. We just needed our drinks and we turned around and they had seated a 2 some right where we were suppose to sit.. So they stuck us back in a corner.. Not right.. Our waiter was nice and attentive.. Most of us ordered a salad with salmon.. The waiter left with our orders….then came back a few minutes later and said that they didnt have any salmon.. The chef had not told him they didnt have salmon.. Poor planning!. 4 of us had to switch to something else.. I switched to the short rib with polenta…..only to be told later that there’s no polenta and i would have mash potatoes.. The short rib came….looked very nice however it was cold inside.. My other friends added shrimp to their chopped salad entree.. They felt it was subpar in taste.. One girlfriend order scallops and she enjoyed her dish.. There was not good organization with the chef informing the staff on food on the menu. The chef needs to improve on the quality and temperature of the food he/she serves.. I would not recommend this restaurant.

Grover’s Fingers & Wings – Menu with Prices – 9418 N Davis Hwy, Pensacola

So we just came to Grovers for lunch. We have always enjoyed the food until today. While eating a chicken finger I found a long black hair in my food. .which is now in my mouth! I took it up to the counter on my plate and was offered another plate! Nothing else was done. When I asked to speak to the manager, a man told me he wasnt really the manager but what could he do to help. I explained the situation and he said he was sorry but didnt his wife ask if she could cook me something else. No she did not but sorry if I dont feel like eating anything else now, as I am sick to my stomach from having someone elses hair in my mouth! He said well you seem hostile and I said yes because I paid $30 for food I couldn’t eat. He said I don’t know what to do, this has only happened like 2 times before. I told him a partial refund or a voucher for future use. He said I would love to buy you dinner but I don’r have any cards or anything to give you. So basically I have to take his word that IF I go back I MIGHT get my dinner replaced. (He could’ve written it on a freaking napkin!) I wish I had paid with my credit card because I would’ve disputed the charge! I even said you can look at the camera and see me pull it out of mouth and he said they don’t really work! Good thing there are plenty of other places to eat. They are good but if this is how they deal with sanitary issues…nope I would rather not take the chance!

Flying Rhino Coffee – Menu with Prices – 201 Morris St Suite G, Toledo

This is probably one of the best spots in Toledo to get coffee. My boyfriend loved the espresso that he had (he raved about it the entire day) and I thoroughly enjoyed my Japanese-style iced coffee, which was light and smooth. In addition to the great coffee, the space is cute– love that the roaster is on display and the plant shelving. Think: rustic but hip. The new owner, Angie, has done a great job at taking Flying Rhino to the next level.

Fresh Smoothies & Cafe – Menu with Prices – 2450 Creston Ave, The Bronx

I would like to think it was because I came in 15 min to closing but that shouldnt change the attitude that you have towards the customer. I walked in and the ladies were talking they looked at me and continued talking. Very disrespectful didnt get greeted or anything, so I said excuse me and asked for what I wanted. Then I told her ill buy an orange juice aswell only for the simple fact that I wanted to see the machine working she stated that the machine is off and the juice was premade that defeated the purpose of wanting the juice so I didnt get it, but They have a lil process that’s done to meet customers satisfaction they serve you an ounce or 2 of w.e. smoothie you ordered to taste for perfection incase you want to add anything or change anything but as I get my sample the lady started to pour it in the cup, didnt wait for my opinion. It wasnt as cold as I would have wanted it to be but didnt wanna start anything I just said it was fine. The one moping gets mad because my boots were dirty she told me to stand by the door and the other lady tells me to come over to the cashier to pay and the one mopping gets mad. I just think for a first time experience on a Friday night it should have been a little better.. I’ll come again another time maybe I’ll change my rating but as of now very disappointed

Serendipity Gourmet – Menu with Prices – 173 Weybosset St, Providence

This time, it was an EPIC FAIL! Everything was either overcooked or severely overcooked, and that was before 10PM. I asked the guy what time they were open until, and he said 2AM. Nothing close to appetizing looking. Lettuce in salads was shriveled, rib meat was hard, fried won tons looked sunken in, fish was dried out along with the lemon garnish,. Chicken wings were hard, mushrooms had shrunk quite a bit from having just sat there, juices were pulling up in the middle of the food from being on the heat but not stirred. Some dishes were NOT in a well, but placed over other pans of food which means it would not be up to temperature(safety hazard), rice and other noodles were dry, as well as the sauce they came with. This place is only good during the day., When the food is fresh. At night, taking care of the food is an afterthought. This food was abandoned and in some cases unsafe to eat

bar purlieu – Menu with Prices – 1530 Willamette St, Eugene

One of the best meals I’ve ever eaten! Please excuse that my photos, except for the foie gras, were taken well after digging in. The food was beautifully plated and we were excited to taste each dish so I forgot to take pictures but I wanted to remember the dishes because they were delicious! Some in our group were a little hesitant to drive hours out of our way from landing at PDX to staying at Seaside beach. EVERYONE agreed after that it was well worth it! We ordered the tasting menu and were delighted by each dish. I was so excited to eat the next dish that I missed photos of two dishes: crispy fried chicken with a sauce verde slaw and housemade sausage with croquettes on a three bean sauce. The texture combinations of each dish were unique and flavors bursted forth from freshly sourced local ingredients and different seasoning. I asked for a wine recommendation and it paired well with each dish. My mouth is watering as I write this. We eat out and travel often and food sometimes tastes the same across different restaurants in different cities or I wake up thirsty in the middle of the night. This was not the case at Bar Purlieu! We will find a way to return!

Tortas Sinaloa – Menu with Prices – 2252 S Euclid Ave, Ontario

Wanted to try something new, came here and was greeted rather unprofessionally. Told me to take a seat and order from a filthy laminated menu. Decided to get a “Cancún” Tortas approximate of a size of a BK Whopper for $7.75 and a beverage for $6 that never came. The sandwich was below average at best on taste and mediocre on presentation. However the “server” did came and asked me if all was ok, but I think it was just a routine formality or fake courtesy, yet in reality I didn’t think she gave a flying f-ck. Then came time to pay at the cashier, and she wanted to charge me $14, until I told her that she never brought me the refreshment. So altogether the bill came at $9.25 for just the sorry excuse of a Tortas because they charge $.89 cents for using a card, in which it wasn’t disclosed nor posted anywhere visible at the store. I came in as a happy, hungry customer. But leaving this damn establishment with a bad taste in my mouth. Should have just gone to Arby’s instead. As my Mexican friends taught me: “este lugar vale pura corneta”

T.K House of Bread – Menu with Prices – 9030 W Flamingo Rd #140, Las Vegas

TK House of Bread is a family owned establishment that once was a grocery market and a bake shop housed in one store. Now they have redesigned the interior to look more like a restaurant. With the addition of tables and chairs, you can use this location as a catering vendor to host for big parties and gatherings. Inside feels comfortably nice and cool. Instead of waiting in silence, it would be a good idea if there is some background music to liven the atmosphere and make it feel like home. Lamara took time to show me the different kinds of bread they make and it’s best to come at 11am when it’s freshly baked. Aside from bread, they offer hot foods like chicken and beef kabobs, chicken and beef lula, lamb chops, kabob wrap, turkey and ham sandwich, hamburger, pizza, and chicken wings. If you’re looking for more of an ethnic dish they make cheese borek, perashki, Armenian salad, Greek salad, and Russian salad. My first order was #4 Chicken Lula ($11.99) which comes with rice, hummus, tabouli, roasted jalapeño, and pita bread. The chicken lula is delicious! It’s so tasty with roasted jalapeño. Hummus is very creamy and the tabouli taste fresh. A side order of fries is $5.99 and it’s delivered hot and well done. I made a return visit and ordered for takeout. I tried #15 Ajarski regular ($7.99) which is baked bread with cheese and two eggs. You can add meat like turkey or ham ($2). If you order this, you should also get #33 Eggplant ($5.99/lb), which has a blend of spices and tomato sauce. The eggplant is so flavorful it’s a must have to eat with Ajarski! It will elevate how good it is. Another great choice is #20 Spicy Cheese Borek ($5.99) which is a favorite! It’s a long bread filled with cheese and jalapeño and it taste amazing when you heat it for about 30 seconds. The spicy cheese borek is so good to have especially when you want to eat something fast. They have a display case of sweet and savory baked goods. I’ve tried #39 Potato Perashki ($1.99/each) which is a bread filled with potatoes and dill. This is a unique flavor and is a good option for vegetarians. They also have perashki filled with meat. The meat stuffed bread is kind of similar to Filipino pandesal bread that’s filled with beef or chicken. They do have a few selections of dessert and pastry. The #45 Russian Doughnut ($1.99/each) is a puffy donut that is hollowed and filled with cream or nutella and sprinkled with powdered sugar. The donut is big but it’s not as sweet as I thought. It could use a little more cream or nutella to fill the hollow gap. Nonetheless, it’s still a good treat for donut lovers. I haven’t tried the kabobs yet but that will be for another visit. So far I’ve had very friendly service by the owner. It wasn’t busy on the day I came, and it’s very kind to see the owner take time to help me carry the food to my car. Even though this location is a further drive from The Strip, it’s nice to pay a visit to this restaurant. The total cost of my order was just under $50. Everything I’ve had taste very good. I feel the food is reasonably priced and I would love to try more!
