“I loved the brunch, huevos rancheros at Mainzer (with a side of their smokey bacon)! The service was Top Notch and the food was fresh and delicious, not to mention my eggs were cooked perfectly, which I can be a stickler about, over medium. Since I was taking myself out to brunch, these types of little gifts of life are especially important, taking the time to stop and smell the roses, enjoy a good meal, and have a wonderful ambiance. So thank you Mainzer for making myself care day have a great start!“

“Valerie is the BEST waitress I've ever had! She made our dining experience remarkable. Her personality lights up a room and I already look forward to eating at Chili's again because of her. The food was great, the atmosphere is very nice but the service was above and beyond because of Valerie. We will be back! I highly recommend sitting in her section for a first class experience.
