I found Veterans Rebuilding Life (VRL) on Google and its been an amazing experience. They are very respectful and understand the trials of a military veteran in regards to the time consuming process of applying for Veterans Affairs (VA) resources and services. I was able to get some emergency food, clean clothes, socks, hygiene products as well as opportunity to work gigs to make money through Veterans Rebuilding Life (VRL) non-profit's huge list of supporters. I feel blessed to have stumbled on this non-profit that really does what they say to change the narrative of how veterans are being treated in this country. If your a person who's interested in donating to a non-profit that really gets to the root of the problem and provides a solution think of VeteransRebuildingLife.org they can use your donations to help more veterans like myself get on their feet. Thank you so much VRL!

The last time I came here was on Friday for my dad's best friend's celebration of life dinner. I've had their salmon before and this time I had everything else under the sea. We started off with some bread and butter, then came the salad, followed by roasted potatoes, calamari, grilled octopus, crab cakes, sliced sausage, shrimp in a garlic sauce. Those were all appetizers, then we got to choose our main dish, chicken, seafood paella or a meat paella. I got the meat paella, my dad the seafood paella and my mom the chicken dish. I literally had to take my paella home because there were just so many appetizers I didn't have room for it BUT I did have room for the dessert. We got to choose from almond cake, flan, tartufo or chocolate cake. I got the flan and it was the perfect size. It was sweet and caramel-y. Just what I needed to end this special dinner. The service here is always top tier. Everyone is so attentive and nice. You definitely get your moneys worth when you come here. The seafood is fresh and the atmosphere is always so welcoming! Definitely worth it to come for dinner or for one of their famous events they host. Can't wait until your next party!

I deeply regret ever moving to Lexington School. My experience here has been nothing but horrible…read more The students are extremely disrespectful there's bullying, stealing, and even hidden smoking going on. It's not a safe or supportive place. The PBIS system that's supposed to help students isn't actually helping the ones who truly need support. It feels like no one is really listening or doing anything to fix the problems. If you're a parent or student looking for a positive, safe, and respectful school environment, I strongly suggest you look elsewhere. This school has made me feel alone, stressed, and like I don't belong. I wish I never came here in the first place.

We really appreciate all the of the time and effort you put into making our wedding day so personal for us. We're so happy we found you! The music was perfect and really got everyone out on the dance floor. So many people told me that it was the best wedding they had been to - and I must say the music you played really contributed to that! You did a great job coordinating all of the events at the reception, including my impromptu serenade from my Sorority sisters. A number of guests told us how great it was to have nice, upbeat background music that you could talk over during dinner. It was great how you kept my crowd dancing, setting the perfect mood with the right mix of songs (old school classics, and new school), as well as playing our personal favorites and anticipating songs we would like.

We adopted our second dog, Oliver, from Korean K9 Rescue in May 2026, two and a half years after…read moreadopting our first KK9R dog, Bari. I remain profoundly grateful for this organization and for the people who do this extraordinarily difficult work. Oliver came to us with a complicated history. He is a senior rescue who had already experienced a failed adoption and had spent years learning that human hands were not always safe. KK9R did not minimize his history, rush the process, or try to make him sound easier than he was. They were honest with us about his needs and thoughtful about whether our home was the right one for him. Since his adoption, I have been reminded again and again why KK9R's process is as thorough as it is. Rescue is not simply about getting a dog out of a shelter and into a home. It is about doing everything possible to create a placement that can be permanent, and one in which the dog has a real chance to feel safe, be understood, and have a joyful life. Oliver has now had significant dental work and eyelid surgery, and we are slowly building a life around safety, trust, consent, and predictability. He is funny, stubborn, deeply sensitive, and increasingly joyful. Watching him discover toys, enrichment, comfortable places to sleep, and the simple pleasure of being understood has been one of the great privileges of my life. I am especially grateful to his fosters, his trainers, and the medical, adoption, and administrative teams and volunteers who cared for Oliver before he became ours and who trusted us with his next chapter. The work they do is expensive, complicated, emotionally demanding, and often invisible. If you are considering adopting from KK9R, my advice is simple: take the process seriously. Follow their guidance. Listen when they tell you who a dog is. Understand that the requirements exist because these dogs have already endured enough uncertainty. We did not need KK9R to make adoption easy. We needed them to help us make it permanent. Thank you for Bari. Thank you for Oliver. And thank you for trusting us with both of them.

Often times, you see organizations with adoptable animal pictures asking for application, after you submit lengthy application, often you don't hear from them, and animal is no longer available. And since application is needed for each specific animal, you have to go through the process all over again. KK9R is different; they ask for your application to vet you. You can apply for particular animal or general to get approved. They are very thorough about vetting applicants and very responsive. Then, after you get pre-approved, you can visit the animals. Which makes the process more streamlined and efficient. They do great work with local rescues as well as oversea rescues; particularly from south korea. The dogs are adorable and great quality. Some dogs are rescues from puppy mills, that sells to pet shops. They are also very honest about medical history of the dogs, and what to expect. After adoption, they also do follow ups.
