“This Giordano's is a cute and cozy place. Also whenever we have it (too much for my growing belly) the pizzas are DELICIOUS and the folks who work there are so nice. It's like they are an old fashioned pizza place from when I was a kid, not a part of a big chain. Really recommend going to this giordanos any time!!!“
“I want to thank Carter, for his great service. I came in for lunch with a couple of people. Carter welcomed us into the restaurant, followed up on us to make sure we were ok with our meal. He offered us refills a couple of times. Thank you Carter!“
“Kid at the rugster had no idea what he was doing or what we were asking for. Checked with the manager who said everything was correct, come to find out it wasn't. We were all charged for large bowls of soup instead of cups. Stood at the register for like 10 before we left to get it corrected and couldn't find anyone and no workers came to ask us a thing.“
“After growing up within the Latino community, eating authentic Mexican dishes, and learning how to cook within that community, I'm pretty particular about the Mexican food establishments I give my hard-earned cash to, because I know what good Mexican food is and it is often not what you get...Cinco Hermanos gets my money happily!As such, I often have certain requests that may not be on a menu, but I know are doable, based on my knowledge of Mexican cuisine. Not only do they happily receive my request during my phone order, the request is always executed correctly and to my liking.My husband doesn't like certain things in his burrito, and when ordering from other places, those things were either in there, or replaced with other "fillers." He orders the same exact thing every time, so he has often been disappointed...and his requests are easy like no lettuce and no rice inside the burrito...no biggie, right? The first time we ordered the way my hubby likes his burrito, from Cinco Hermanos, not only did they get the order right, they added some extra meat in the burrito as the "filler." That's customer service and attention to detail right there!I love that their tacos ARE NOT GREASY!! We love tacos al pastor, but they are often bathing in grease, which is actually just laziness on the cook's part...I know, because I make them at home, often. I usually don't like to order carryout tacos as a result, because they arrive home soggy and greasy...NOT the experience I've had at Cinco Hermanos! The tortillas rarely have any extra grease on them and the meat is the same. Any tacos I've ever ordered from them arrive home intact, non-soggy, and as delicious as if they were just prepared in my own kitchen!I also really enjoy their green salsa...it tastes like homemade. You can tell that they used fresh ingredients and that it was made in smaller batches. It's hard to explain, but trust me when I say it is one of the best green salsas I've ever had, including some homemade authentic versions. It's a little warmer than most, so be prepared for that, but it is crave-able!If you're looking for a stellar caldo de res, this is the place! Not only did it taste like the thousands of caldo's I've enjoyed in Mexican kitchens over my lifetime, it was served the way you'd be served in said kitchen...plenty of meat and veggies in that delicious broth! My typical experience ordering caldo to-go, is a container with a lot of broth, one or two small pieces of meat, one small carrot, more cabbage than anything, and half a potato...not even enough meat to make a decent taco to eat with the broth. I ordered this one weekend I was sick, and let me tell you, it hit ALL the right spots! Rich broth with an abundance of meat and veggies...exactly the way it would be served in my home kitchen. I was floored when I opened the container and saw it, and then more pleasantly surprised when I tasted it...perfection! Just know that it's only available on weekends and totally worth the wait! Oh, and one of my requests, LOTS of limes, was absolutely fulfilled, happily. Hats off to this place for great customer service!I've not had one thing on the menu that has displeased me, nor has my husband. Not one.Not only is the food delicious, the service is impeccable. I have certain requests when I order carryout, not excessive by any means, just certain things we prefer, like only green salsa and no plastic utensils necessary. At other places we've ordered, 8 out of 10 times, there's a bunch of red salsa in the bag - along with the green - and a bunch of plastic forks that end up in our garbage can. EVERY SINGLE TIME we order from Cinco Hermanos, the instructions are followed to a T, which tells me that they're good business people and not throwing their money in our garbage can. As a business person, I find that smart, admirable, and a likely indicator of how they run their business on every level.Here's a good "tell" if a Mexican restaurant “
“Waitress Liana at the Samarkand restaurant is a true embodiment of professionalism and attention to every guest. Her friendliness, smile and care make visiting this establishment even more pleasant and memorable. Liana is always ready to offer menu recommendations and provide a high level of service, which makes her one of the key elements of a comfortable and enjoyable restaurant experience.“
“I got the Classic Philly- and it was outstanding! It literally just melts in your mouth, cheesy bite of deliciousness. I also got the cheese fries which were also phenomenal and definitely can tell made out of REAL potatoes versus a frozen bag of fries.I’m not even mad I got it all over my work clothes eating in the car because I have a 30 minute lunch break. My only disappointment was I called twice and no one answered the phone and went to voicemail.I don’t know why this establishment didn’t have more people in (maybe because it is Sunday) because this is the BEST sandwich I’ve had in the Lake County area! I will be back again!“
“Our reservation was for 5pm and we walked in at 502pm. The food for both my wife and I were absolutely the best Italian food we have ever had. The price was excellent for such great quality. We will try to come at least once per month. Thank you very much for our delicious meals. We will see you soon.“
“Wanted to thank you for delicious pizza and calzone and excellent service. I made a schedule for 7 pm but we got home earlier and I asked to reschedule the delivery for earlier, everything was done as requested. We received our order 30 minutes earlier and everything was delicious. Definitely recommending, friendly staff, fast delivery and very delicious food.“
“Small gem just off 176! Great BBQ!! My wife had a pulled pork sandwich and I had the hot sausage - both were terrific!! Very nice staff also. I spoke with Debbie, who was so nice and informative. If you like BBQ, definitely check this place out!!!“
“Been coming here for 15+yrs and it never disappoints. Great food and a great value in a world where everyone is jacking up their price to absurd levels. Have had catering done for a large party, have had delivery, and stopped in for food many times and it’s always been consistent and good food. This place hasn’t changed a bit for as long as I can remember and I mean that in the best possible way!“
