Service was great really cool vibes inside they do offer outdoor seating as well.

I ordered the salmon poke bowl with brown rice. What I received was the salmon poke bowl with quinoa. The iced tea was $5. A side of Brussels sprouts was $8 and very small. Our table had poured and downed almost all of the water in the carafe before I noticed a small black beetle submerged at the bottom of it. When I told the server, he replaced it, but didn't give everyone new glasses. Only me. My friend ordered a wrap and asked for it to be gluten free. The person who brought the food told her that it was gluten free. The server, who had taken the order, came back and told her it wasn't gluten free. He told her he'd replace it and take it off of her bill. It took her forever to get the new wrap. And when she got the bill, he hadn't removed it from her tab.

SENTRY - WATCHING RESTAURANTS Butters Pancakes and Cafe…read more8300 N. Hayden Road Scottsdale, 85258 We were going to the Maricopa County Home Show at Westworld and needed to have some breakfast first. This is located about 3 miles from there. Other reviewers all noted that the place is usually packed, and today was no exception. However, the line to get in moves quite fast and we only waited about 10 minutes. When we were called for our table, we were given menus and fresh ice cold glasses of water were on the table. This restaurant is known for having fresh squeezed orange and/or grapefruit juice, so that was the first thing that was ordered. There is a machine loaded with oranges in the front, and the juice was a real treat. Companion ordered coffee, and I ordered a cappuccino, which came in a large (proper) cup with a lovely head of foamed milk on top. For the main courses, companion ordered steel cut oatmeal which came with little cups of brown sugar and raisins. Companion totally enjoyed the large bowl. For myself, I ordered french toast topped with apple/cinnamon glaze. It was delicious, but I could not possibly finish it. I felt so sorry for it to not be eaten, but I had to leave it! There are many servers on the floor and it became apparent that they all covered for each other. As for the food, they must have a dozen cooks in the back because as crowded as it was, our food came out quickly and really hot. I'm glad I don't get to this area often, because I'd blow up like a balloon with the quality of this food. Sanitation was as it should be, and the noise level was acceptable. 5 stars Sentry - Restaurant Reviews Tempe, Arizona 85282 Find us on Yelp, Google, and all around the world.

The variety of garnishes was incredible (yes, they even have pork egg rolls!). We also tried their "jungle juice" style drink served in a pouch; it was super refreshing and balanced without being overly sweet. For food, everything was an easy 5/5: Chicken and Waffles: Fabulously delicious and cooked to perfection. Carnitas Hash: Tender, juicy carnitas paired with potatoes that weren't over-roasted. The overall atmosphere had great energy. The only slight letdown was learning they only feature a live DJ one weekend a month. As the room filled up, the background music got a bit drowned out, but the playlist itself was solid. Overall, a fantastic experience from start to finish. We'll definitely be back!

The waitress checked in with us multiple times which I always appreciate. They also have outdoor seating for those who prefer that! I ordered the mac n cheese with steak and it was decent. Nothing out of this world, but good! Portions are also decent, no complaints there. If you plan on going in the evening, consider making a reservation if you want to play safe, especially on a Friday or weekend night. Overall, would try again.

Friends had been to the Montauk before and invited us to meet them for a weekend lunch…read more I made a reservation, so we could be sure to sit inside, since it is already well over 100 degrees outside. The six of us were seated across from the bar, and it was HOT . I started sweating and needed to use the menus as a fan and drink water to try and cool off. The restaurant had already been open for almost 2 hours, so I am not sure why it was so hot inside (others in our party were hot too, so I wasn't just me). Positives are the restaurant's beach decor and the hamburgers. Several people in our party ordered burgers, and they were cooked to perfection and the fries were really good! Negatives are very few seafood menu options and the fish tacos were terrible. They were drowning in a mayonnaise based slaw. The corn tortillas were really fresh and tasty, but when I bit into my taco I could mostly only taste mayonnaise and the pickled onions. Our friends even made an unsolicited comment that my tacos did not look good. Luckily, I selected fries as my side, because they were the best thing on my plate. With a name like Montauk, and the beach decor, I expected more fresh seafood options on the menu. More than half the menu was not seafood (Mediterranean platter, hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, brussels sprouts, salads, etc.). Unfortunately, Montauk does not live up to the hype.

My friend liked this place because it had many items that are gluten free. We both got the spare rib and fries which was amazing.

Just finding out my mom has celiac, this is a place I will come back to with her when she visits.

We came across this place after originally planning to go to Butter's nearby, but the wait there…read morewas too long and we were on a time crunch, so we decided to stop at Amelia's instead. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the staff with a warm hello. We grabbed seats at the bar and were immediately welcomed, offered menus, and asked what we wanted to drink. We both got skinny margaritas, and they were really good. You could actually taste the tequila and fresh ingredients rather than an overly sweet margarita mix. We both ordered the Breakfast Burrito for $14, which comes with housemade chicken sausage, roasted potatoes, scrambled eggs, green chilis, mozzarella, cheddar, and fire-roasted tomato salsa. We also got ketchup on the side. The burrito was delicious and very reasonably priced. The staff explained that they focus on fresh, locally sourced, high-quality ingredients, and you could definitely taste the quality. The ambiance was great too. I loved the wood details throughout the restaurant, everything looked clean and well maintained, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. My only disappointment is that there isn't an Amelia's closer to me because I would absolutely visit often. I hope they're able to maintain the quality and local feel because the food, ingredients, service, and atmosphere really stood out. Definitely looking forward to coming back!

Managed to snag a reservation on a busy Friday night around 7:30. Pulled into the lot and they…read morehave valet which is nice but was able to find an empty spot right in front so didn't need it. The place was buzzing with loud electronic music and tons of people dining -- I think because the ceiling is so high the noise is amplified. Because it was so busy it took a while for the server to come over but he did with waters which was nice but then the menus are all on QR codes -- which is annoying because it is hard to look at everything and because the menu is very confusing it would have been nice to see everything on paper. The menu is confusing because the selections are very odd -- I thought it was a mexican-asian/sushi fusion restaurant -- which I guess it is but it was still really hard to create the best food experience when I couldn't see everything available. My friend was hungry so she immediately put in an order for calamari and I was being called to order the blood orange margarita slushie. When the margarita came it was like nothing I have ever seen before. It looked more like a milkshake or like a creamsicle. I dove in thinking it would be too sweet but it was actually quite delicious and I sucked it back in a second! Also I put in an order for the edamame which sounded really good in the description -- "woodfired" and spicy miso butter -- but when they came they were really spicy and the woodfired element was making me cough, strangely enough -- I couldn't finish them! Finally after waiting forever we got the drinks and apps. It then took another 15 minutes to order our food. Again it was busy and my friend and I were catching up so it wasn't a big deal. We wanted a fairly light dinner so we just ordered one roll -- the Fuego, which had yellowtail and a whitefish, chili, cilantro and cucumber plus a pico de gallo on top -- it was very flavorful -- although a bit spicy for those who are spice wimps like me. Overall, thought it was a good meal but wasn't blown away.

What happened to the place?! I celebrated a birthday here…read morefor Sunday Brunch. This was a splurge for me, so I expected it to be a memorable experience, but unfortunately this wasn't the case. Once seated, my party politely requested a table with a half booth that we noticed was empty, in a more secluded area of the seating area. The waiter said he would check the availability, but we were completely ignored. They continued to fill our water and brought other items the table, but no one followed up on our request. Our dining experience started out very wrong... The service: I had a guest running a bit behind, but while the rest of us sat there and waited, no one asked if we wanted to start drinks or coffee?! We sat there for 40 minutes and had to flag down the waiter to start our drink order. They would pass our table and ignore us multiple times. The service was extremely slow and lacking. It was not even that busy in the restaurant. The food: It was very average. It was not as exceptional as I expected for the price. They brought out some dry cold store bought mini croissants to the table as an appetizer.They were terrible. My entree was average. I had soufflé pancakes. There were table sides to share. Unsalted potatoes , tiny pieces of bacon covered with sticky syrup, and some type of beef filet... All average and unseasoned. We sat there for almost 2 hours and the waiter never offered to change out our plates or silverware. I had sticky pancake syrup all over the place and had to use the same dirty plates the entire time. Oh and we wanted to order a birthday dessert but every selection included some type of nuts and I have a severe nut allergy. Go figure, another disappointment. This did not feel like a fine dining experience and I probably wouldn't return for brunch. I don't understand how these restaurants get away with this!
