I really wanted to like this place because of its location near Target (I shop here often).

I wanted to like this place. It is one of the few places at the Century City Mall's Food Court where you can order a meal that has not been sitting out for the last few hours.

Don't try to pass off your dregs. I am truly disappointed because I wanted to like this place.…

So wanted to like this place after reading great reviews! Had the worst tasting falafels Ive ever had on this planet!

I really wanted to like this place because of all the pictures I've seen friends post. But when they couldn't serve foie gras cotton candy anymore, I didn't have the same excitement.

Uh...no. You might feel half-way cool when you walk in because the decor is trendy and cool, but what a let-down. I really, really wanted to like this place.

I really wanted to like this place because I am a massive Lisa Vanderpump fan.

Really wanted to like this place but there are too many free play areas in town for me to justify paying for zero service.…

And the beef lulu was tender, juicy, and nicely seasoned. The staff was helpful. And the interior was clean, and had a great menu board!! I wanted to like this place

I wanted to like this place. My expectations were too high I guess.

I really wanted to like this place, but alas, I do not.

WORST HOTEL* I really wanted to like this place. Sure it's old, but It's cute. Shabby chic. BUT it needs some serious help, and updating. The tv and AC unit are from 1862.

I wanted to like this place, I really did. But they play loud movies after "quiet time" (officially hosted movies -- not the guests' fault)

I really, really wanted to like this place! What's not to like about 24-hour pool service, happy hour & watching some FIFA out on the patio?!

bookmarked

alas

"alas" has funny results too, but harder to search for.

aw no meta

I really wanted to like Eqinox...I just wish it had wanted to like me too.

Since when did servers add their own tip to the bill for a PARTY OF 3? (yes, I am talking about you Ms. Ir1s M00n). I am calling the BBB if this issue does not get resolved promptly on Monday.

Several things in here look questionable. Don't eat here. I'm calling the BBB on them first thing Monday morning.

---

There is no other Whirly Ball of Ann Arbor. I am calling the BBB on Monday.

---

NEVER GO TO THIS SHOP!!. The owner is very nasty, unprofessional and will burn you if she is dealing with WAX! I'll be reporting her to the BBB on Monday!

---

A place that doesn't redeem IT'S OWN coupons is totally BS in my book. Will blast these people on every review board I can find and will calling the BBB in Monday.

---

I am reporting her to both Groupon and the BBB on Monday. If I could have given her -* I would have. She ends her voice mail with Jesus is Lord.

---

Horrible food and customer service. They got my oder wrong and then they tried to blame me. They wouldn't replace my sandwich and they wanted me to call back to get my money back. I'll be calling BBB on Monday.

---

I'm reporting them to the Better Business Bureau on Monday and I better get a full refund via Groupon!

---

My poor son was tramatized and hurt, no helpless animal deserves that. I am also going to contact the better business bureau first thing Monday.

---

As a matter of fact, I will be calling the health department and better business bureau come Monday morning. This is a culinary f**king disaster!

They got my oder wrong and then they tried to blame me.

odear oder

I wanted to like this place, especially since the location was previously home to an adult store..

...

The owners have been in the premises less than a year, and they're still ironing out some of the kinks in their business model

Your son is no helpless animal, ma'am. He's a vicious predator. And we're all in danger. Get the canned goods and the toilet paper, we have to head to the shelter before he comes back and strikes again.

lol, lol at everything

"We really wanted to like this place but walked away feeling we paid far more than the food deserved, leaving a bitter taste in our mouths." Maybe next time, take the money out using your fingers?

It's a tourist trap, to be sure, but at the same time, Sachertorte is absolutely phenomenal.

Service was quick at this tourist trap (mostly because we only ordered desserts) and we actually got free mini-glasses of water (I know! Unheard of in Europe!) that are offered in a tray on the bar regardless of what your purchase was.

A tourist trap, sure, but it's worth a try while in Vienna when you don't know when you're going to be back in Europe period.

It's loud and crazy and can be a tourist trap, but as a tourist, it's not one to miss.

Its not a tourist trap, they have the best schnitzel I have ever eaten (the challenge is its size!) and the service is really welcoming!

Not fine dining, but its a great way to experience great Viennese food, and is not an overpriced tourist trap like many you will find closer to the main city center.

A bit of a tourist trap but well worth a visit just for the shear size of the schnitzel.

Worse yet, they pulled the classic tourist trap stunt: brought out a bottle of water we did not order, and then pretended to be unable to understand English OR German when I told them we didn't want it.

A total tourist trap. I understand it's considered an institution in Vienna and it's in a basement but can't you find a way to air out that place?

A saying says "if you don't have anything good to say about something don't say anything at all" but in this case i really have to speak up and warn everybody from this tourist trap.

Over advertised and overpriced tourist trap. Worth visiting perhaps during the low season.

That last one is from a review of Schloss Schönbrunn, by the way.

I really wanted to like this thread, but I'll be contacting the BBB on Monday.

Ooh, I'd imagine threats of legal action would make for a fun search. "The burritos were nowhere near the size of my head. They'll be hearing from my attorney on Monday."
