“First time there for lunch. Had esplanades. They were terrific. Staff is great. Didn't have a desert but they looked really good. Will go back for sure.”
“The Chickpea dip is served warm with toasted pita. The flavor is mild and pairs perfectly with the wine. Next we ordered the Fish Goulash which is warm, crispy and delicious! For extra flavor we ordered a side of spicy lentils. They made my #5 fresh to order so it took the longest but worth the wait! Then we ordered a meat combo to go for good measure. Lol Great staff and comfortable atmosphere to share real good food with people you like since you may be sharing food and eating with your fingers. Always delicious and everyone I've brought comes back! Must try! Be adventurous!”
“I was very excited to come into this Mediterranean bakery/deli after having a chicken meat pie at an event. I came in around 6pm, most of the hot dishes had already been bought up but I was able to get a spinach hand pie and three pieces of pistachio baklava. The spinach pie was even better than the chicken I had previously had, moist and flavorful with a little kick on the back and. The baklava was the star of the show and keeps me coming back to this market. In another visit there was no hot food items but I was able to pick up some pickles, hot peppers from Palestine, markuk bread and of course more baklava. The staff are always incredibly friendly. This market offers a wide variety of items, deli/ cold prepared items, frozen items, canned/jarred pantry items, spices and more! Love this place!!”
“THE BEST DELI. EVER. ANY WHERE. BAR NONE. GO. JUST GO. GENEROUS.... NO, HUGE SANDWHICHES.CAN'T SAY ENUF ABOUT THIS PLACE.”
“Awesome new cafe. Quality of baked goods and coffee are both excellent. Seems like they are dabbling in serving food as well. Excited to see how this place develops.Would love to see some better bike parking options installed!”
“Really good! I loved the ice cream flavors. Service was great. Ambiance was fitting. Smaller place- but what else can you really expect from ice cream. We enjoyed it a lot!”
“Wow! What a fantastic food experience! Kui is an intimate space offering elevated Japanese food, we have visited twice since our first time! The service presentation and food was exquisite. We will be back!”
“Donna and her sous chef Cathy were excellent! Their food and company were the highlight of our girls trip! Donna was easy to communicate with, and executed our selected menu perfectly. She and Cathy offered a five-star dining experience in the comfort of our beach condo. Not only were they amazing chefs, but they were the kindest people! We loved getting to know them during our dinner. Thank you Donna for an unforgettable meal!”
“Great Sandwiches. Staff is awesome. We grab some sandwiches every time we're staying in Shelter Island to have on hand in the hotel room. Parking can be tough.”
“I ordered a custom vintage heart cake (chocolate with raspberry filling) and a variety box of GF cupcakes. Both were absolutely incredible. They looked as good as they tasted! The lavender vanilla cupcakes were a huge hit in particular--the lavender was not overpowering, it was perfect.Vegetarian options: The entire menu is vegan! GF also available”
“Food service ambience everything is just top notch wonderful staff excellent food top most spot for Punjabi Indian food from now on.”
“I’ve had weekend breakfast here twice and it was perfect both times. Servers and kitchen staff are both amazing. Bloody and mimosa bars and the breakfast burrito is the best I’ve had. On top of all this, it is reasonably priced!”
“It was a late lunch for me so it was very quiet. I ordered a simple cheese pizza and a small side salad. Nothing complicated, just a good ole pizza that only took about 10 ”
“Coffee with Pips visited Emperor's Kitchen on April 16th, 2024 This restaurant is located on the second level of an above-average retail space. The big windows overlook a large parking lot surrounded by several upscale businesses, including Kopp's Frozen Custard, which is a must-go place when visiting Wisconsin. We were seated immediately at a clean table, nothing fancy, however, there was ample room to dine, unlike some restaurants. The decor wasn't anything special, however not distracting either. Only minutes after we were seated, our waitress acknowledged our presence and was very kind. We had a little time to study the menu, and we were very pleased with the selection, the menu was basic, but it did offer a nice selection of items. I ordered the Sesame Chicken Sesame Chicken which is a dish commonly found in Chinese restaurants throughout the United States and Canada. My assistant ordered the Beef Chop Suey, which she appeared to enjoy very much. The Sesame Chicken was absolutely out of this world, not bad at all, I enjoyed the tender pieces of battered chicken coated in sweet sauce and tossed in sesame seeds. The portions were huge, definitely enough for two meals... guess what I'm having for dinner tomorrow? We both ordered a Diet Coke, however, beware... this tasted more like seltzer, not like Diet Coke at all, and at $4.50 each, the small glasses of what was said to be Diet Coke were a disappointment, to say the least. We mentioned this and were told, "Hmmm don't know what could be wrong with it." Because of the high cost of our drinks, and no real concern shown by the staff, is the reason why Emperor's Kitchen earned a 4.5-star rating instead of 5 stars which they would've received if they had taken these drinks off the check. Don't get me wrong, Emperor's Kitchen is a 1-restaurant operation, and we applaud small businesses that struggle to stay in business, but it's the little things that customers remember, and some may be turned off by, resulting in negative feedback. Taking the drinks off the check would have been the right thing to do. But overall, our meals were well worth it, and no complaints, other than the seltzer water we were served. I will definitely visit Emperor's Kitchen again, and I highly recommend this restaurant, minus the sodas, stick with the free water.

“Their Pizza is delicious and has such a well-balanced flavor. The Frappuccinos are super smooth, flavorful, and addictive. Highly recommend this place!”
“The food is so good, the cafe de olla was delicious, we eat carnitas, quesabirria and menudo everything was good.”
“BOSA has an awesome Boston vibe, great atmosphere and excellent service. Some of my favorite items are the Spicy Sofia drink, the Shrimp Agnolotti, the Crab Croquette and the Cod Loin. I'm not a dessert person but they have an in-house pastry chef and I hear the desserts are incredible, too. Can't wait for the rooftop to open in May!! This place is my favorite new spot!”
“Very good restaurant, added dishes not listed in other restaurants, clean environment and music, ….they serve good, authentic”
“I dropped by for Sunday Brunch today with my wife and three other friends. This was our first visit, but most assuredly will not be our last. We found the food and drink to not only be incredibly flavorful, but well-composed and both thoughtful and intentional in complementing the other selections on the menu. We chose to each order something different and pass around (which I highly recommend). Of special note are: the breading on the fried chicken, the hollandaise sauce on the Benedict, the shakshouka, and the white sangria. The real star of the visit, however, was the staff - each of whom was happy, engaging and interested in making our experience memorable. As that becomes more and more rare, kudos to the owner and managing staff for making this a clear priority. As a group who dines out with great regularity, this restaurant jumps out as a real gem. We are looking forward to our return to sample the regular menu. Thank you for a lovely experience!”
“Chakra is so tasty! This is definitely some of the best Indian food that I've tried in the area, and it's safe to say I'll be ordering again next time that Indian food craving hits. The chicken tikka was phenomenal. I can't do spice, and I like how you can select your spice level when you order takeout. Sometimes mild is even too spicy for me (lol) and this was truly mild. The sauce was so sweet and fragrant and tasted so good dipped in buttery garlic naan. The chicken was also high quality white meat. I also tried the samosas, which were a bit spicy for my liking but were prepared very well. This chicken tikka really can't be beat, and I'm excited to have a new go-to for my one of my favorite dishes.”
“1st time there.Our waiter Lorenzo was AWESOME!!! Friendly, took time to explain menu and answer our questions. A little pricey on food”
“Overall a great experience. Some of their dishes are amazing and some are simply really good. The Pico is to die for. Great, friendly service, but atmosphere is where this place is lacking. Doesn't appear like staff is doing a good job of cleaning tables and CHAIRS and the food disposal area was disgusting.”
“Cool place with a nice parking lot in the back. They have a variety of drinks and the ambience inside is cool. They also have some food options but we only got drinks. We did not have reservations. They were able to get us a spot at the bar and were helpful. The drinks were very good. I don't know if there was anything though that would pull me back again on a regular basis.”
“Best burger I have in a long time. Family had pastrami burger, bacon burger and said they were delicious. Tried the carne asada fries which were equally delicious. Service was good. Very casual sports bar feel, nice patio area. No pic's we were to hungry!!!”
“I saw this place when going to Banana Thai next door and decided to visit today since they just opened. And OMG…it is insane good!!! I got a carne asada burrito and chips and queso and I cannot even begin to describe the amazing flavors. ?? The burritos are MASSIVE and I bet you could probably even split it with someone and still be full. It came with both tomatillo and red salsas that tasted homemade. All around this was a really great experience and I will be back to try the birria tacos! ? I am obsessed!! ??”
“Been waiting for a Cheyenne location to open! Opening Day had a few snafus but was worth the wait. Tired of the 'ol mayo sandwich, i tried it "Mike's Way" with blend of vinegar, oil, and oregano. Hands down the best subs in town. Plenty of parking and drive-thru available.Upon recent visit I noticed a request for tip on paypad even though I paid cash. I will not be forced to tip on a takeout order. Even though I love these sandwiches I will limit my visits in the future due to demand for tipping.”
“In my top 10 of dining experiences!! The building - incredible. The vibe is that of comfort and coolness combined to perfection. The flavors of everything we ordered were bold and light at the same time. And you MUST get dessert. All of them. The service - also outstanding - family style so everyone gets to taste everything. Absolute 10/10. I could go one, but you need to just experience it for yourselves.”
“I started coming here about 3 weeks ago and have been obsessed since. Fresh, clean, Mediterranean/Turkish food. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. I brought some food and shared with my Turkish teacher who said it tastes just like home. I highly recommend this place.”
“I loved the food, very good service and the food is delicious. I loved the mango lassi game ??❤️”

“I love Burger Kings breakfast croissant. You can get it with omelet style scrambled eggs and cheese ,ham, bacon or sausage. They are so good and really nice change from the hockey puck style breakfast offerings at McRivals. Right now they are 2 for $5.00. I think McRivals coffee is a little better. Just try these croissants and I’m pretty sure you will love them tao!”
“Very fast and friendly service. I never had a problem at this Dunkin. I go everyday and seems like everyone is happy to be there.”
“Great Food at very reasonable prices. Also. Great quiet atmosphere..Our family had wonderful time.”
“Great food. Cooked to order. Arrives hot. Staff is exceptional. Great Atmosphere. Highly Recommended.”
“Me and my wife eat there often. Great food, great deserts, great service and great atmosphere.”
“We went for dinner based on the past experience of my wife's past experience. The waitress was the first positive for sure, it is nice to see someone who enjoys their job, she was the high point for sure. Getting a great steak was the main goal here, we were disappointed, this was not due to the preparation, it was the quality of the steak that was the issue, this was Choice grade at best, not tender or melt in your mouth. Went for the Whiskey Onions, the Onions were not caramelized, no real flavor, same with the side of sauteed mushrooms. Savory is what we were looking for, did not happen. I guess this is best summed up as "Not what it used to be" I will say however, the Margharita was very good!”
“What happened to Pate Jeanty? Are you still in business? I saw the place closed for about a few weeks now.”
“Great crawfish and great service! Highly recommend this great restaurant!”
“One of the horniest experiences I’ve ever had. A Tour De Force of all of the hottest flavours of Asia. Be prepared to have your doors blown right off. Boomshakalaka!!!!”
“Very cozy, I loved all the pictures of old southern BBQ's. Reminded me of Florida in the 1950's. My wife loved the food, if you can satisfy my wife you are doing it correctly. I loved the food also. I know we will be back. You are now our go to when in the area.”
“i went last night for dinner it was an amazing experience.i ordered various items all taste so good.the service provide by raman and mandeep is fabulous.the atmostphere is top rated.now it has become my favourite spot for eating out.”
“My new favorite breakfast place. The deluxe breakfast sandwich can't be beat and their coffee is excellent. I feel like I'm away on vacation when I'm there. Thankfully, it's right in my own home town!”
“I visited the Lemoyne Diner after an overnight stay nearby, and I was very happy with my experience. I enjoyed the "Breakfast Garbage" (their version of the breakfast 'mess' that I enjoyed in other eateries), and it was tasty and enjoyable. The coffee was good, and the server was attentive and took care of everything in a timely fashion. I enjoyed my first visit, and it won't be my last!”
“Staff and food is super! Highly recommend the shrimp….tons of it and perfectly grilled. It’s now our date night go-to place!”
Showcase of Excellence
“The fella who’s always behind the counter (I assume he’s the owner) is just the best, he’s a super hard worker and everything is always quality. It’s also super affordable, not Park Slope prices. I very much appreciate a solid NY deli that isn’t outrageously priced.”
“Everything that we ordered was delicious and freshly prepared. Carne Asada wrap, chicken quesadilla. Both excellent. My Dad said the smoothie was the best he's ever had! Just go here , it's the best food north of Oaxaca. Gracias, ”
“Good icecream and esquitesWheelchair accessibility: Entrance is ADA compliant. There is no slope to get in since the entrance is flat with the ground outside too.”
“The place was very clean and the ambience was perfect good smell the whole dining area ,staff very accommodating and very kind for sure will coming back again and again ♥️Parking: You can park Infront of the restaurant have a huge parking area”

The Flyfish Club was supposed to make history as the world's first restaurant selling memberships through NFTs (non-fungible tokens). But in a sign of changing times, it has now accepted a more traditional approach - taking good old US dollars for membership. Originally marketed as an ultra-exclusive private dining experience secured via cryptocurrency, the New York City seafood restaurant has shifted to offer standard annual memberships for $3,500 (individual) and $4,000 (spouse), plus a $1,500 initiation fee.

The conveyor belt sushi chain Kura Revolving Sushi Bar has huge growth plans for 2024. The company just announced it will open between 13 to 14 new restaurants across the United States in its 2024 fiscal year. That would be the highest number of new locations Kura has ever opened in a single year since first coming to America back in 2009.

Major fast-food chains across America are racing to install more digital kiosk ordering stations - and they have a good reason. The self-service kiosks have shown their efficiency in making customers spend more money per order. "People who ordered at kiosks rather than at cashiers spent on average nearly 10% more," Shake Shack CEO Randy Garutti told investors in February. Yum! Brands, parent of Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut, is also prioritizing kiosk expansions. Taco Bell has them in all U.S. stores, while KFC should have kiosks in the "vast majority" of non-China restaurants by end of 2026.
