I went to Joyce at The Spa... for the woman who cares, for a facial. I had no idea of what was ahead. From the sea salt foot soak, to the last few minutes of the amazing facial (which included aromatherapy, steam, a masque, and a hand massage), I was PAMPERED! It was impossible not to fall asleep during the masque stage, and it was a power nap that was refreshing and energizing. If you've thought about it - stop thinking and GO!
Pros: Caring, thorough, peaceful, attentive
Cons: none

I discovered Sushi Zen in early 2008 and it has been my favorite ever since. Most sushi places are so similar, I didn't realize that even something as basic as maguro could be so much better!
At lunch you get a bowl of miso soup to start out and if you're there at dinner, a bowl of edamame greets you at the table along with a few bites of cucumber salad with shrimp. We usually order the kaarage (think Japanese chicken nuggets) which come with a tasty ginger sauce, to start.
My favorites are Crouching Tuna Hidden Shrimp Roll (Shrimp tempura roll covered with spicy tuna), the Stuffed Tomato (a peppery, crunchy seafood salad on top of rice wrapped in raw tuna), and White Christmas Roll - which is topped with a tasty wasabi-based cream sauce. Their nigiri is spectacular (I always say I'm going to just eat nigiri and then the rest of the menu reminds me how tasty it ALL is) - it just melts in your mouth. I don't like eel, but my friends swear that the Las Vegas Roll is the best thing on the menu. A couple of basics - Spicy Tuna Roll and Dynamite Roll- are also very reasonably priced and so delicious - the perfect amount of heat without detracting from the flavor of the fish.
The service is prompt, but be patient with the sushi on busy nights- they have very talented chefs but they are making these by hand! I've been in a couple of times where an upset (and impatient!) customer gets huffy that it's not out in 10 minutes. Believe me, it's a little wait for the food, but oh-so-worth-it.

I am black and have extremely coarse and ingrown facial hair. Lately i have experienced more ingrown hairs and dark areas from the scarring of the ingrown hairs.
i read reviews about Aura and that's how i tried them out.. i have had 2 consultations at other clinics one at a vey plastic surgery spa and one at dermatology clinic.
I came to the Aura medspa for my consultation i spoke to katy who everyone seems to know by first name and rely on her at the clinic for expertise and knowledge. I had a consultation and i thought immediately she knows SKIN..She was concise thorough and to the point. i was given a treatment plan and told how my skin would be cared for and what they would do at every step of the treatment plan. I was very impressed no pressure just facts and a real plan of care?? all backed up with knowledge and experience.
I signed up for the buy 5 get three free on the laser pkg.
i noticed a change in my skin immediately.
it's been four days since my laser treatment and my face seriously feels less irrtiated!
I am ecstatic
kudos to Aura for their integrity and knowledge!
thanks Katy i feel the change for the better that you referred to!:)
Pros: Safety and Results
Cons: None i can think of

I really enjoy this cozy, personable restaurant. I've met friends here for drinks and appetizers, dined here with my husband and hosted a private party for 26.
The atmosphere is quaint and contemporary simultaneously. The food is delicious and I love that they are aiming for local/sustainable foods. Nice wine selection.
I would definitely recommend Preservation Kitchen to a friend.
Pros: gourmet food, great aesthetics, pleasant service
Cons: No complaints

Harmony massage is a masterfully run privately owned business. They have graciously given me the chance to work with each of the therapists who are contracted by my insurance and without hard feelings have chosen a favorite. I love the personalized service that is given each time I go in. It begins with a warm greeting from the receptionist and goes on to a detailed check in with my therapist who takes note of my needs for that specific visit. I have never gotten a generic once over massage from any of the wonderful staff at Harmony. And just as important I am given the full 60 minutes EVERY time. I love you Harmony Massage and will continue coming back for some of your magic!
Pros: Flexible scheduling and many massage therapists to try out.
Cons: I haven't found anything to complain about in the last year.

Hobin and his entire crew are very customer focused. The food is always top-notch and the staff will make you feel like you are at home.
The sushi chefs are great at making that 'special' roll or serving up combinations that are off the menu.
Must try:
Bonito Tuna (when in season); Crunchy roll, Hana roll, and the Rainbow roll. Delish
Pros: top quality fish; imaginative, tasty rolls
Cons: small space - easily filled

I've been to Grazie's countless times, and have never been disappointed! Their Alfredo sauce is one of the best I?ve had. According to my parents, their coconut prawns are THE best. Parmesan risotto is to die for, it?s very rich and creamy! The risotto comes with certain menu items, but I?ve ordered it alone as a side dish. My favorite dish is ?Cassie?s pesto supremo,? it has artichokes, sun dried tomatoes, pine nuts and feta cheese? oh my mouth is watering! I saw someone comment on the flan, only it?s not called flan, it?s called creme caramel. I?m no creme caramel connoisseur, but it was yummy, just like everything else I?ve tried there. If you go during peak times, especially on weekends call ahead for a reservation!
Pros: Great food, wine selection, live jazz
Cons: Parking lot can fill up on a busy night

I have eaten at Sai Mai several times a month since it opened and it is the ONLY restaurant in Bothell that I frequent. The owners pride themselves on friendly, attentive and expeditious service. The food is fabulous. I have lived in and traveled to many different cities and eaten lots of Thai food in my life but nothing compares to Sai Mai. The dishes always contain the freshest of ingredients, prepared with great care and skill and are always delivered nice and hot. The usuals are on the menu.... pad thai and satay, for example.... but there are so many wonderful and healthy creative dishes like three plus one. And Mu makes the best cocktails! I am salivating just thinking about the cilantro mojito that he makes. You must go to Sai Mai. They are worth a trip to the East side if you don't live there and should be a regular haunt if, in fact, you do. I usually go to Belltown and Capitol Hill for good food but Sai Mai is the exception!
Pros: Delicious, fresh and healthy ingredients perfectly prepared
Cons: None
