I have actually considered doing the same type of site from time to time but don't have the time normally.<BR/><BR/>We used to eat out every night and sometimes for lunch as well, but I have cut that down a bit lately as I just plain got tired of poor service.<BR/><BR/>I once got into a argument on the air (radio) with a local DJ on KFYI over going out to eat and dinner prices.<BR/><BR/>Also another thing about KFYI- there is a food critic show, her name escapes me at the moment, well, she doesn't answer mails. I hunted all over the place for her email and either it didnt work or she wouldnt answer. She is probably computer illiterate and doesnt email much (incredbly I do see a fair amount of that still). Their lives are busy enough I suppose, but if you have a show dealing with the public, then you should answer questions occasionally.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>CarlaCarla R Ackleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07217629810615430165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30819706.post-2287428689617242542009-01-11T00:23:00.000-07:002009-01-11T00:23:00.000-07:00You know I agree...

He is focusing more on his east valley stores than his 2 west valley locations. <BR/><BR/>You need to always be careful when you are ordering everywhere you go.<BR/><BR/>He may have his good days but I am finding more off than good.<BR/><BR/>PS: $8 for a glass of wine is way overpriced... $13 is not even funny in a fast casual pizza place. <BR/><BR/>In Ruths Chris steak house... ok $8 for house, or even $12 for basic is acceptable, but not at a pizza place.CrediblyEdiblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17198891685888712166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30819706.post-16419665191674774932009-01-10T18:36:00.000-07:002009-01-10T18:36:00.000-07:00I go to the 59th Ave & Union Hills Bravi since...I go to the 59th Ave & Union Hills Bravi since they have opened and have noticed a decline. It's still pretty good, although sometimes am not happy.<BR/><BR/>They have Mexican cooks, that speak Spanish, so sometimes they interpret incorrectly. Like when I don't want cheese on anything- I have to totally check everything over and make sure.<BR/><BR/>Also the staff are little kids, basically very early 20's if that, so the experience level isn't very good sometimes.<BR/><BR/>I made the mistake of ordering a Merlot house wine and they sold me the most expensive Merlot they had. I was pissed as it wasn't even good. I don't think it was even a Merlot. It was very bitter. I like fruity. That's what happens when children (young staff woman) are picking the wine. House wine means a cheap red wine, in this case a Merlot. It was $13 a glass. The regular house wine is less than $8, and even that's considered somewhat expensive.<BR/><BR/>It's not as good as it used to be, but it still has its good days.<BR/><BR/>It just comes down to watching what the staff do and watching your order. You have to do that everywhere you go.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>CarlaCarla R Ackleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07217629810615430165noreply@blogger.com
