I was a little shocked at how small the portions are based on the price. Some friends took us to Cha Cha for my husband's birthday, so we weren't paying. I would have been upset if we were. The food was good, the service was a bit slow. It was neat to try all the different tapas, but we were hungry so we also all ordered entree items. Not a lot of menu items for someone who doesn't eat much meat! I had some really expensive pasta! Our server did tell us that the cook would add in/leave out anything we'd like in a dish. I wouldn't go back again, but I thought it was a neat concept.

I have been visiting Bella Spazio for at least 6 years. I've had massages, haircuts, pedicures and manicures. I have to say the the spa area is the best. You walk thru those doors and the world goes away and it's time to relax. The soothing music and sounds start relaxing you before you start. Each massage room is dimly lit, soft music plays and the beds are heated. The entire time you are there, you are treated like a special guest. What a wonderful retreat!

I was a member of The Rush for about two years. I was actually there before the first real gym opened. It was just one small room near Toy's R Us. I agree that The Rush has nice equipment, but it's not for me. I have often seen many people there who seem to be there just to "look" around at others, not really to work out. I hated that the management changed the fees around all the time and people were getting different deals all over the place. I like a place that has a set fee schedule.
The Rush did not seem family oriented to me. I took my six year old neice with me once. She needed to use the restroom before the child care area opened. She was not allowed to go into the women's lockeroom with me. Apparently it's adults only. This struck me as odd. I also didn't like that there was no time for families to enjoy the indoor pool area.
The Rush has nice equipment and convenient hours, but it's not the kind of atmosphere I enjoy.

Pelancho's is a great Mexican restaurant. The chips and salsa arrive at the table nearly as fast as you do. The salsa is thick and very fresh. The restaurant is big enough that at most times, there isn't a wait for a table, which is a big plus in my book. The food also comes to your table very FAST! They have a nice kid's menu which includes traditional "American" food that any child will love. The chicken chimichanga is a favorite in my family!

The Knoxville Zoo is a wonderful place to visit any time of year. I find you see more animals out and about if you visit when the weather is cooler. The new Kid's Cove is amazing. I think my child would be happy to go and spend the day just there and ignore the rest of the zoo. I love that they have outdoor sinks in the kids area. How smart! The play area is a blast, but not totally parent friendly. It was a bit hard for us to follow our small child around as we did not fit in all those tiny spaces!

I was recently in the Hound Dogs in West Town Mall. My nephew was looking for a Tennessee sweatshirt. They had one he liked, but did not have the correct size out on the floor. We asked a sales associate if they had any more. He ignored the first question asked by my mother. I asked again and he mumbled, "No everything is out. At least I think so." The conversation ended at that. No offer to check the stockroom or call another store. We promply left. Hound Dogs is overpriced in my opinion, you think they could offer better customer service. They do have a large selection, but be prepared to help yourself.

The main reason I went to Runner's Market for the first time is because the people who work there are runners. I knew they could help me. I have been running for 8 years and have bought all my shoes there. I love that they can help fit you in the right shoe and that you can take the shoes out for a test run around the parking lot. There is also a treadmill in the store if you want to hit it. Their customer service is amazing. I once had a pair of shoes that gave me blister after a week of running. The quickly took them back and helped me find a replacement. Very friendly, knowledgable staff!

I took my toddler in for an eye exam after she was referred by her pediatrician. The wait for an appointment was long. I was placed on the cancelation list and when someone canceled, they quickly called me and got us right in. The office staff is amazing. I was afraid my child would be scared and uncooperative. They were so sweet and kind to her. She thought she was playing games with them during her exam. Dr Gitschlag was so informative and helpful. He explained everything to me and I felt very informed.

I've been to so many doctors who zoom in and out of the room and really never stop to listen to your questions and concerns. Dr Peeden always comes in, sits down and acts like she has all the time in the world to talk. If she is in a hurry, she will always tell me why. The office staff is super sweet and always act like they recognize me when I speak with them on the phone. I hate that she is no longer delivering babies, but I will stay with her for my OB care and let one of her partners deliver my baby. She is my OB for life.

I saw Dr. Walker at a friend's recommendation. I was pregnant and looking for a new OB. Dr. Walker acted like I had been a patient there for years. She never noticed that this was my first visit. I found her office staff to be unorganized and unhelpful. Each time I was in the office, I could hear them looking for my chart and saying it must have been misplaced. I also had two unreturned phone calls for very important blood work related to my pregnancy. I felt much like cattle in her office, not a person at all. I quickly found another doctor.
