If you need specialty produce (like ethnic produce such as Chinese vegetables and exotic fruits), this is the place to go. The parking lot is extremely frustrating, but the goods make up for it. They have fresh made pastas, really yummy and reasonably priced pastries, a small but good quality prepared foods section, and the best produce department I know of in the state. During the appropriate seasons, they also have a reasonably priced and fairly well stocked plant and flower nursery. They carry some dairy items (cheeses in particular) that are hard to find elsewhere, but the prices on these are a bit high. They have the best price on fresh figs in the area (half the price of Whole Foods) during their short season in August. They don't have a huge selection of dry foods, but they do have pastas and other goodies.

"My earlier experience with car dealerships meant long hours spent knocking down the price and negotiating for a good deal on a used vehicle. But when I drove into your lot and all the cars were marked with fixed prices, I went in and within a couple of hours I was driving home a 2006 Scion XB, which I picked up for $13,352.00. At your dealership, it was a breeze! Thanks for keeping it simple. Toyota of Watertown is located at 149 Arsenal Street Watertown, MA 02472. Call (866) 455-8596 to speak to a Sales Advisor."

I called yesterday and got a quote from the owner, Daren. He recommended a tire which I had not heard of before and another tire. He gave me his opinion on both, and pointed me in the right direction for some research if I wanted to do some. After my research online, I decided to go with the tire he recommended. He was able to get me in for the next day, and explained he would have a free loaner car waiting (part of their service there for any major work done.) When I got there, I explained it would be tough for me to come back before he closed, so he said "no problem, if you can wait a half hour, I can get your car done in that time." I was in total shock, I was getting 4 new tires, an allignment, and brake inspection. Before I knew it, 25 minutes had passed, and my car was done! And I know they did everything correctly b/c their showroom allows you to watch them as they work on your car, plus my car drives great! I was in total amazement at the speed and the service I received, when they say express, they really mean it!
Pros: Fast service, excellent customer service, great product knowledge, clean and convenient
Cons: Only take VISA/Mastercard, no Amex or Discover...at least when I visited

I am a gay man and I feel that the barstaff is cute. Especially the sloth that the pubgirl is talking about. He does often look at me but I don't mind. I'll definitely be back to get another chance to hook up with that balding sloth. He is MY man!

I've been going to Salon Sama for over a year now, first with Maria and now with Kathleen after Maria left. Kathleen is great! She listens to what I want, but also gives me great ideas based on what she thinks will work on me when I want something different. I always feel like she's 100% committed to making me look my best. She's always right & I always walk away thrilled! Plus, everyone else that works there is exceptionally nice as well.

This Panera Bread has great service. While dealing with the busy lunchtime rush, they are friendly and upbeat. I spent hours a day here during graduate school, and truly feel at home even now when I go back. Great bread, healthy menu, reliable service and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Parking is good here too. Watch out for the lunch rush!
PROS: staff, food, service
CONS:

This kind of restaurant is getting harder and harder to find. Really good food, well prepared in a nice atmosphere and resonably priced. No wonder it is always crowded and it is easy to see why
Pros: Nice atmosphere. Good food reasonably priced.
Cons: Cant think of any

I used to really love coming to eat here, and the service used to be very friendly. The food is pretty good, but depending on what you order the portions are pretty small. They have a sneaky way of putting lots and lots of vegetables on the plate but very little meat (this is especially true of seafood dishes). Service can be extremely slow, especially during the lunch rush. My last trip I had a takeout order that took more than 45 minutes, and then the order was wrong. The staff was very reluctant to issue a refund for the incorrect order, and they were rude and difficult to deal with. My last couple of visits were disappointing, so I don't think I'll be back. It's a shame since it's very convenient to Home Depot.

i went to Not Your Average Joe's for lunch on a Friday afternoon with a group of 10 people, was seated immediately, promptly served the most delicious bread with an amazing garlic-cheese dipping sauce. i could have just had that and left satisfied.
our waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. it was most of our first time at the restaurant and he answered all of our many questions about the different (there are tons of them!) entrees, salads, pizzas, specials. i had one of the specials: cranberry teriyaki chicken with asparagus and butternut squash. the butternut squash was incredible. so good i went home that weekend and attempted to replicated it, unsuccessully however. the spices they used were delicious and i would definitely order it again. i have a huge sweet tooth, and all of their desserts come in these mini-martini glasses. it's the perfect amount to indulge your sweet tooth without feeling sluggish when you walk out.
after our bill came, which was unexpectedly reasonably priced (less than $20/person including appetizers, entrees, desserts, tax and tip!), the hostess came to our table, asked who had been there before, and gave all of the "newbees" a $5 coupon for our next visit. this place is incredible and i will most definitely be going back. in addition, the decor is very modern and seems like an upscale, chic restaurant that belongs in a city, but luckily doesn't have the prices or stuffy atmosphere that so many times goes along with that.
thank you Not Your Average Joe's for a fantastic dining experience!
Pros: ambience, parking, service, FOOD, bar, great value

Bask Tanning is a place that you love going into. There are a variety of different beds that you are able to choice from, relaxing atmosphere, friendly service and expertise advice as well as the cleanest tanning salon I have ever set foot in!! Tanning is not longer something that you feel like you should do but something that you look forward too.
Pros: Everything!
Cons: None!
