kroger is one of my regular places to shop. The store is clean, well stocked and offers great savings. I also like their international food area for occasional treats. Their meat department is great and their organic department is improving. I think the kids area is a great idea, but I have yet to use it as my kids love shopping! Their bakery is excellent too and a great place for birthday cakes.

I visited their new location in McKinney on a Tuesday night. The restaurant was not crowded, there were three other tables there at the time. The hostess was very nice and accommodating and we were sat right away. Since it was a weekday they only had one hibachi chef on duty. It was over an hour before they finally started cooking our food. They ran out of soup. Our server didn't even tell us they had run out of soup. We had to flag down another server who then brought us our soup right away. The soup wasn't even good. Our hibachi chef had no personality. I ordered a combo of shrimp and chicken which costs $24. I proceeded to get 6 shrimp total, 1 being the shrimp appetizer included with the meal. A complete ripoff for what it costs. The vegetables were below standard. I asked to talk to the manager and basically voiced my issues, she was not accepting and basically blowing me off. Horrible customer service, there was no sorry, or I apologize let me get you three shrimp, anything. She offered to comp 10% of my plate, I wasn't complaining to get a free meal, I just wanted her to know that the food wasn't good and that they should really rethink their portions for what they are charging. Basically the problem could have been easily solved with a smile, an apology and a small compensation. Enough said, the bill comes and there's an extra entree on our bill and no discount. I didn't care about the discount, I just wanted to be out of there. The server then proceeds to argue saying that we did have another entree. Finally they realize it's their mistake and take it off, seriously how hard is it to calculate a bill. Still no apology or anything. Meanwhile we have barely seen our server the whole time, another server was refilling our drinks and it wasn't even crowded. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone, it's not run well, the food isn't comparable to any other hibachi restaurants in the area, it's overpriced, and the service is poor.
Pros: The hostess was pleasant and the decor is nice.
Cons: Sevice, food and value.

The food at this location is not always the best. The beef is good most of the time but not always tender. The service is adequate. If you get your order to go be sure to check to make sure every thing is in bag.

This place makes great pizza! The cheese is wonderful and you can't beat the price! $6.99 for a large on certain days of the week. We have had their hamburgers, but they weren't' all that great. Their chicken fingers are good. The service is wonderful.

Double Dave's Pizzaworks is a family-friendly buffet with very reasonable prices. It is a bright clean restaurant with plenty of choices in the buffet line, from pepperoni rolls to buffalo chicken pizza, however, the pizza is just mediocre. The sauce is rather bland, and the amount of toppings is not too impressive. If you want a cheap family meal, this would be a good place to go, but you're not going to get top quality pizza here. I would say that Double Dave's pizza is better than Cici's. Double Dave's also serves beer along with the usual soft drinks.

This mom and pop Italian hole in the wall is a great place to grab a quick informal and inexpensive bite to eat. It isn't fine dining but the food is perfectly acceptable and the service is always friendly. Because this is a low key restaurant, don't expect extravagant decor, flatware, or silverware. The booths are red vinyl and think fancy pizza hut for Italian decoration. The restaurant is often staffed by the local high school students. The food lacks presentation but is always fresh, hot, and tasty. They provide yummy hot garlic rolls when you sit down but the salads kinda suck as they usually drowned in dressing. We've gone there on Friday and Saturday nights and have not had to wait.

Believe it or not I have lived in America for close to six years and this is my first time to visit Arbys. My husband had been with his work colleagues and loved it, but I was still skeptical. I must say I was pleasantly surprised at what I found - the service was great and quick, the restaurant was clean and still fairly new I think. the food was good - I am not a great fast food fan, so it has to be exceptional for me to rave on and on, but I liked it - I had a chicken sandwich and some curly fries - the curly fries are great!!

I ordered 2 lunch specials for delivery: "Crispy Beef" and "Chicken and shrimp hunan style" First of all, the lunch specials come with a soup, i ordered one won ton and one egg drop. They charged me an extra $3.95 and up-graded my won ton to the next bigger size (unbeknown to me)with some old chicken and shrimp thrown in. Both soups were bland and tasted like they added some old ingredients to tap water. Even soy sauce and pepper oil did not help it. The egg rolls tasted off, like they were left out all night, thus inedible. The "Crispy Beef" WAS DRENCHED IN A THICK BITTER SAUCE!! So it was nowhere near crispy!! The pieces of meat were soggy, fatty, and grisly. The veggies on Chicken and Shrimp dish were nice and crisp, but the sauce was watery, the shrimp was mealy, and the chicken tasted like it was cooked a week ago, left uncovered in the walk-in and then put in my meal. There was NOTHING good about this meal, I was overcharged and fed garbage from the kitchen. The Management did not care one bit, pretty much said it was my fault for not coming in. He said I should have ordered the sauce on the side, HOW WAS I TO KNOW YOU DRENCHED YOUR "CRISPY" BEEF IN SAUCE! He gave some other lame excuses and said the next time I came in he would give me "Discounts" and make things fresh for me. If he had done that in the first place this would not have happened. Don't worry Ben, I wont be in use the "Discounts"!
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Cheap! You get what you pay for.

My family loves Jasons Deli, the meals are affordable and a lot healthier then the fast food places. I think the fact that it is always so busy is a good sign. There is a good assortment of food and the little extras like free ice cream make it enjoyable for the kids.
