At first, I was taken away by the clean charming salon. Of course I was expecting an up-to date , "hip" new style. (looking for achange). After reading the great reviews on Colleen, I decided to take my chance. I was extremely impressed. Using her creativity and artistic abilities Colleen gave me exactly what I was hoping, a beautiful new style. Along with my great new look, Colleen also provided great insight on my life. I cancelled my weekly therapist!!! Colleen knows everything abou everything! Now, allll are my friends are trying to get appointmens with Colleen after seeing my new look. However, I did have a bad experience with the coffee at Leon and Company (gas for days) If you go to Leon and Company go to colleen. I also heard that Amanda was also wicked awesome.
Pros: colleens geat
Cons: parking is horrible, in-saloon coffee is crap

I was looking for a salon for my wedding day in August -- a place that felt comfortable, not rushed, and could take care of a large party that included myself, my mom, two bridesmaids, my sister-in-law, and five nieces ages 5-11. I first stopped there in May, and had several appointments for highlights and cuts before the wedding. Robert did an incredible job with my highlights -- best ones I've ever had. Elizabeth did two trials to make sure we achieved the right look, and managed my cuts to ensure my hair would look just right by the wedding day. When the day came, there were four stylists ready to work with us and the entire party was in and out in two hours. Adults and kids all liked their results, and my hair/veil held well into the evening. I especially appreciated how well they handled the kids, and the relaxed and casual atmosphere put us all at ease on a very busy day. I enjoyed working with them and would recommend the salon for any styling needs.
Pros: Knowledgeable staff, friendly atmosphere, easy parking
Cons: Makeup application services were too heavy for my taste

We have two cats and we have had negative vet experiences in the past, so we hesitate to take them just anywhere for medical care.
A few years ago, one of our cats injured herself and we had to bring her for emergency care. Fresh Pond was the only place open at the time (it was early in the morning) so we went there. We were very pleasantly surprised with how much everyone cared for our cat and worked very hard to make sure she was ok. We have exclusively brought both our cats to Fresh Pond from that point on.

My animal has been very well cared for at this hospital. The vet we see has been very good with my dog. When my dog was sick the vet was very caring, she sent home a typed report of every test they did, every medicine they gave (and why) and instructions. The secretary and the vet both called within a few days to check in.

I was married in August 2005 and I purchased my Judd Waddell dress at Allegria Bridal in November 2004. I had been to two other dress stores and this store didn't even compare to the other stores I visited. I was so pleased with the level of customer service and the dresses; I couldn't imagine not buying from them! I picked out "the dress" immediately, it was the first one I tried on and after 15 dresses, it was the last one I tried on. My bridal consultant, Lisa was amazing. She didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, she told me the truth. If I didn't look good in a dress, she didn't try to sell me the dress. I loved everything about getting married, especially dress shopping.
If you're a bride and you don't want to feel pressured and want to have fun shopping for a dress, this is the place to go. However, it is not for all price ranges. They do have sample dresses that you can purchase for less money but be prepared to spend anywhere between $1,500 to $5,000 on your wedding dress. In the end, it's all worth it!

...and the gelato is as good as ever, good luck picking just one flavor! They have moved to Trapelo Road, next door to the Studio Cinema. The sandwiches are scrumptious and the staff are wonderful; seating is limited. I miss the little store but am delighted to see how busy they are in the new location. Enjoy :-)

Look into this company. they changed their pricing and made it so that I knew exactly what the job would cost, even if it took longer than expected. i didnt pay more, just the price that was presented up front.
This company was on-time, clean and professional: not what I would expect from a contractor.

So many places are starting to pop up that say they have gelato. Real gelato is natural - ask for the ingredients! By this measure Angelato is second to none. The only place I've seen that keeps an approved ingredients list, and an unacceptable ingredients list. maltodextrin, polysorbate 80, and mono & diglycerides , have no place in thier gelatos. As for taste... Che Bravo!!

Rancatore's has the best ice cream in the area. It has a wonderful selection of ice cream as well as frappes and other ice cream products. And the flavors are tasty and unique. There are many topping choices as well. It gets especially busy in the evenings during the summer, so if you decide to go, be prepared to wait in a very long line.
