July 9, 2008 From Yelp.com: On my never ending hunt for the perfect pad see ew, of course I had to try it here. It was very interesting. The noodles had a certain crispiness to them. It was good, but definitely felt…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: It was an interesting experience. The cost was expected (high) but it was very busy and cramped and the food wasn't anything special. Too many people trying to eat so the vendors can't really cook…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: Thank you Aaron. I had a horrible rental experience (please see my New Management review) that I desperately needed to get out of....Aaron Krolik saved my a#$. I found him online, phoned and was…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I had to give the Taste one star for two reasons: (i) Yelp requires one star, there is STILL no zero-star rating, and (ii) I did not get shot on my way out of Grant Park, and that deserves a star,…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I'd give this 0 stars, but you have to give at least 1. I'm going to use a free association and just type what comes to mind when it comes to the Taste of Chicago: Disappointing, crowded, overpriced,…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I like the Taste of Chicago festival, I have gone several years in the past. But this year was unacceptable. With the gang-war that was going, shootings, fist fights,tear gassing, and stampedes it was…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I stayed here because this was the hotel the coordinators of the conference I was going to chose for us. The conference happened at Roosevelt U. just a few blocks away. They will be getting an angry…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I used to live in Valparaiso and rode the train in to Chicago to on weekends. As commuter rail goes, it's about par for the course. Depending on where you board, the train is frequently between five…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: Now that the proposal is out of the way, I can finally write this review. Engagement ring-shopping can be an stressful time but Jeff Mitzman at Irving Ringel put me ease. He started me off with a…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I was excited about trying this place because they offer a veggie dog, unlike your typical hot-dog stand. I ordered it Kansas City -style, got it to go, and opened it up 5 minutes later in my office.…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: OK so I know how natives to Chicago feel about the Taste but I moved here last November and had never been. My sister was visiting for 4th of July weekend and we decided we wanted to go to the taste…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: If you got one issue of this magazine you would think oh it's pretty cool but then once you started getting every other issue you would say "oh it's all the same stuff, why am I paying for this"?…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: In reality, the number of stars this market gets awarded depend a bit upon the time of the summer I go. Early on, there are fewer vendors and not a lot to choose from. As the summer progresses and…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I bought my wedding dress here...yep, my mom & I braved the "Running of the Brides" last summer. Actually, it was not crazy at all - we went around 1pm, and by that time there were still tons of…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: Why should you go to the Chicago Cultural Center? A. It's free B. Art exhibits are continually changing, and there are free music performances almost everyday at lunch and many weekends. C. It is…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I would give this place ZERO stars if i could..........it's just filled with trash........or tourists. All you see is............... 1) Trash walking around knawing on big turkey…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: Epic Burger may be environmentally friendly, and the decor is really nice, but Patty Burger (on Adams, between Wabash and Michigan) makes a better burger. And Epic Burger is a few dollars more…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: This place is wonderful. It is located in a wonderful old building on Wabash. The beautiful scent of cigars and pipe Tobacco smack you right in the face when you walk in. It is a luxurious decor…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: I do not really like this place since it's very cramped in. The table were too close to one another. You always have to feel the need to move your chair closer to the table whenever the waiter or a…

July 8, 2008 From Yelp.com: probably one of the few reasonably affordable ways to get yourself into a room on Michigan ave. Obviously, the location is great. Walk right out the door to Grant Park. Makes for a nice morning. They…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: The cheese deep-dish was the best slice of pizza I've had in probably a year. The service was absolutely perfect.

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: So typical that the two negative reviews are from..where else.. CALIFORNIANS. Unfortunately for me , my dining experineces and' my soul suffered greatly when I moved to the west coast from the SRO…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Just walk in, don't need to wait for 1 or maybe 2 weeks, quite clean, very friendly, just a perfect clinic for students on non-emergency.

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Wow what can I say. I came in knowing what I wanted but got a lot more out of my experience at this old school camera shop. I learned so much stuff just talking with the salesperson who helped me pick…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: This was my first time being here, and amazingly there was absolutely no one there at noon. Ordered the taco combo, two tacos with your choice of meat, some rice and beans, and a drink. The tacos…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: This casual burger joint features pub fare and a friendly neighborhood crowd. Service is fairly speedy and look for a decent selection of beer. Favorites include the Fried Onion Loaf, Apple Salad,…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Why in the heck would I go anywhere for lunch? I can't even imagine not having Pastoral in my rotation of favorite spots to go to. Since I work close to this place, it's a staple stand-by. I'm not…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: They make a pretty mean dog...from anywhere in the country practicall. I like going here on my way to the blue-line from work from time to time and grabbing a nice Atlanta dog. The service is pretty…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Whiners, the whole lot of ya! I hope you complain as loud about Bears games and Lollapalooza. I went after work on a Wednesday and didn't wait in line for anything, not tickets, not food, not beer. I…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: You know it's a standard starbucks but I go here so frequently they know me by name and order which i expect from a good barista. They are super friendly considering this place is non-stop "go time."…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: This place is as good as it gets!!! Forgot my wifes birthday called at the last minute to get flowers sent to my wifes office .. The flowers were fabulous and they were delivered in a two hour…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I really want to like this place but I just don't. The decor is great, it smells really nice inside, and they have a bunch of lotions and products for purchase...but the manicure just wasn't good.…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: It never changes....tons of people, same cuisine. Lots of places to choose from though it seems no place rotates their menus from prior years. There are touns of tourists that insist on bringing their…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Went on a Monday to see the Broadway concert and it was still pretty crowded. I would never even attempt it on a weekend if it's crazier than it was....ugh, that would be horrible. The food was…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I agree with other posters that the people working here are professional and polite, and they are very flexible in making appointment. However, I felt like unnecessary treatments were promoted,…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: There is no doubt that this theater is absolutely beautiful. However, it is absolutely freezing! It was so cold that it distracted me from the performance. I was also a bit disappointed in the…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Probably the reason I'm dating my boyfriend :) Romance is not dead. I actually took myself on a date here 2 years ago to see Hubbard Street perform Stravinsky's "the Rite of Spring" and it was so…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I don't know why I keep going every year...but there's something to Taste that makes me come back, even when I dread having to maneuver around sweaty smelly people. Here is my list of the things I…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I have been to the Taste of Chicago 3 times now..2004, 2007, and this year. The Taste..is whatever. I remember as a kid when I would come to chicago for the summer I always wanted to go because it…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I am not a fan!! I went there for dinner during the week and I was overwhelmed by the crowds and what to eat. I also was not a fan of how you can only buy tickets in bulk of twelve... sometimes you…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: It's slightly bizarre that both of my visits here have occurred on the 4th of July. My dislike of crowds and even fireworks (city living has made them less "special" to me) keeps me away from Taste…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: The Taste of Chicago is deceiving. What I mean by that is that the Taste doesn't fully/accurately represent Chicago cuisine. Anyone who is from here probably knows that Lou Malnati's is not the best…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I came here with a coworker on what I think was the first day it opened. There were only a couple of other people inside, and while it was obvious they weren't completely ready for business, they were…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: If this is what Chicago tastes like remind me to cook my own meals for now on. This is definitely a tourist trap with at it's best carnival food that you would expect from your local church fair. I…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: What a fun musical. A fresh take on perceptions and of course the wizard of oz story. I hated the book and was pleasantly surprised by the play. The Oriental theatre was very ornate, nice ambiance.…

July 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Ended up staying here on some business and was pleasantly surprised given the low price I found on hotels.com. The location is fantastic. Right near Millennium Park and the waterfront. 5 minute…
