This was one of the worst Vietnamese takeout meals of my life and it was expensive too.  The Bahn Mi bread was hard and brittle.  I asked for extra veggies and didn't get them.  The meats and pate were minimal for $17.99.  Flavor was a 2.  The Pho was just as bad and cost $24.  No flavor once so ever.  I ordered and paid for Rare Steak and Brisket and there was no Brisket.  Spring Rolls were not bad but not worth the price of $22.  Don't think I will ever eat here again.

Pretty disappointed with Rosa Akor.  Not what we expected when craving Sushi.  While the Nigiri Chef Selection shined, the rest of the dishes did not satisfy.  The Grilled Octopus was uneatable and we left the entire bowl on the table.  The Wagyu Dumplings were ok.  Shrimp Tempura was average as was the Yellowtail.  Dynamite Scallop Role was not dynamite and service was just ok.  We left a little hungry and definitely not satisfied.

Hands down one of the best lunches of my life.  Zinc Bistro delivered on the flavor levels times five.  My goodness the Pate Mason was amazing and served with the best Mustard ever.  I wanted to buy a bottle of this stuff which the waitress said was made in house.  Served on a delicious toasted bread and the portion was big enough for two or three people.  Delicious.  Next up was the Foie Gras which was cooked perfectly and served with a delicious cheese, pears and strawberries.  Mind blowing decadent and good!  I ordered the Crab Salad and it was huge.  Covered with a lot of Crab Meat and a light dressing that let the flavor of the Crab shine through.  This could have been shared with two people.  My Daughter went with the Chicken Salad and did not care for the taste of the Chicken.  I tasted it and thought it was fine. Add a nice glass of French Chardonnay and this meal was a ten. 

 Food and service here were terrific!

Got a tip from our Uber driver about where to eat good Mexican food in Phoenix.  He told us about Casa Jalisco and boy we are glad he did!  The food here was great.  Service good too.

Everything was better than anything you can get in Hawaii.  The Chicken Enchiladas were filled with moist Chicken with actual flavor.  Not the bland boiled stuff you get a most places.  The Beans and Rice actually had great flavor too.  My Daughter loved them.  The Carne Asada Burrito was delicious too as was the Bean Tostada and Crunchy Beef Taco.  Both me and my Daughter were so happy with this meal.  Left full and happy!

Looking for some good Mexican food in Scottsdale and ran across Señor Taco.  Ordered up Rolled Tacos with Chicken and Guacamole, Crunchy Beef Taco and a Carne Asada Taco.  I liked the Crunchy Beef Taco best.  Carne Asada Taco was huge but a bit dry.  Rolled Tacos were just ok.  Thought the Salsa Bar would kick up the flavors but the Salsas here were terrible.  Probably would not return.
