This is a good Thai place near my house. The food here is really good. I don't reccomend the Pad Thai if you are accustomed to american version of this dish (with syrupy peanut sauce) Their version is more like the Pad Thai you would find in Thailand. The best thing about Tim's is that you can h...
This is your typical gainesville restaurant: mediocre grilled food for the student population who don't know a real restaurant and staffed by the local student population. There's also cheap beer, but there's a liquir store next door, so how cheap is debateable.
The service is terrible. The resta...
If they are known for their burgers, they should find something else. Nothing spectacular, nothing seemingly homemade. Overall it's a mediocre joint good for quarters with frat boys with a creepy owner to boot.
Nice atmosphere and that's about it. Awful service mediocre food for high prices.
We dined at the 13th street location this morning. It took 10 minutes for anyone to get our drink order, we placed our food order at the same time. Only to find out that they didn't have what we wanted. So once we finally decided again what we would like, when they brought the food out the order was...
Dined there Sunday afternoon, The food was terrible and the service was worse, I watched customer after customer told they would not seat anyone else before 3:30 and they closed at 4:00. The hamburger was under cooked and tasteless, the fries looked freezer burned and greasy. Will not go back
I would love to eat here. Unfortunately, I had to leave after sitting at a table for 20 minutes and not getting a drink, a menu or any sort of acknowledgement.
I noticed another table leave rght before us. They didn't get anyone to wait on them either.
They only accept cash. They didn't tell us until after it was too late. What kind of junk is that?
Cafe Gardens used to be a great place to hang out, enjoy finger food, and listen to good music. The service is, and always was, terrible, the worst in a town known for bad service. I used to play in a band there. The management used to actually get mad that our friends came and stayed and ate and...
I always loved the Copper Monkey. They always had the best sandwiches in town. Best Fries too. The waitresses were attentive and it was my 1st choice always for a sandwich always. (at least once a month) However the food has taken a turn for the worse. The fries are those skinny little things which,...
The food was okay, but the service was horrible. The waitress was inattentive and she literally slammed our change and to go boxes because she thought her tip wasn't large enough.
My party of 6 had been waiting for a table at La Fiesta for over an hour. The hostess sat a party of 7 who had been waiting for 15 minutes ahead of us. When I called back later to tell the owner what had happened, she said,"Yes. That is what happened. Sorry." And hung up on me! I will never go...
I can't really rate on the food because I never got it. The waitress just disapeared, never came back again, not even to re-fill. Realizing that everybody around me got their orders, including people after me, I went hunting for her to cancel my order. It was my first and last time. I am not recomme...
Friend of mine summed it up nicely: it felt like we were being served hospital food at extraordinarlily high prices. Just buy frozen chicken breasts, white rice, and canned beans and pineapple...throw it together...and call it a day...but don't call it "fresh" or "savory."
The breakfast special is a rip off. Substitute
hash browns for grits and the $2.99 special
becomes $8.00. That's five bucks for an order
of hash browns. FOOD IS VERY GREASY.
high priced low quality food.
This is the worst Indian cuisine I've ever tried. I am Indian, and I have traveled extensively. The food here is rancid. There is so much oil that it layers out onto the top of the food dish. The chef feels like the extra oil "enhances the flavor of the food." We ordered chicken makhni and the sauce...
Horrible Indian food! Super-expensive, poor staff. Have had much better Indian food before. Charged my card twice.
I'm trying to understand how one person gave this place 2 stars, that's a compliment for them! Overpriced, underquality, I as well did not eat my food and wish I had seen the reviews here before I went.
Don't eat here, maybe something good will replace it after they deservingly go out of busines...
Ivey's used to be a regular dining experience when I was younger. I placed a take out order today for 2 salads and a BLT. The dressing was not included. The BLT was cold and bland. The orange with the sandwich was good, and the salad items were fresh.
The $$ was significantly higher than expect...
