I like to try to go more than once before I post a review, but I'm bored so here it is. Everything was just blah. I tried the "award winning" Guiness Stew. And let me tell ya, the only award it would win is for best slightly below average, too watery, dry meat unimpressive vegis in what tasted like crappy canned beef broth award. The only different than normal beer on tap was Dogfish head, which I got excited about, until they were out. Oh well, Sam it is. I realize how much of a PIA groups trying to split checks are. I hate it so I put in cash, but 4 of our group tried to put down cards. The guy said it was fine and even put in a slip of paper to write the totals down on. However, the first time a different waitress just brought it back and said she couldn't do it, and then it took 2 separate people going up and explaining it. If you won't split a check just say you won't. No need to say OK then be extremely rude about it. So maybe I'll find myself having to be here again if some friends insist. If thats the case, I'll update this review accordingly. But until then there are too many other places to try to stick with something this bad just for convenience.
Gladys Knight's Signature Chicken & Waffles
📍 Address: 529 Peachtree St NE, Atlanta
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐ (3.5)
We were at a conference here for work and had to try out the chicken & waffles craze. Overall, the food was good. My chicken was tasty, and the banana waffle was delicious! Service was friendly and fast. But, they saved the best for last, dessert. We ordered George peach cobbler and Gladys' sweet potato cheesecake. The cobbler was tasty a la mode, but the cheesecake I can't even describe. I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but I could have eaten this as my main course and been fine. If you're in the area and want to have some good comfort food, you can't go wrong at Gladys and Ron's!
Hy's Shrimp
📍 Address: 530 SW 205th Ave, Ste 400, Beaverton
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐ (3.5)
The price was decent for the giant shrimp. I ordered the combo fried & curry shrimp. The flavors were tasty and the rice was fresh. The place was clean. I'm giving 4 stars even with my list of cons coz the fried shrimp and the curry shrimp was delicious. Cons: *The curry shrimp had shells on them. Full of bursting flavor but shelled. Had to peel them before I ate my meal for full enjoyment. * The salad was a waste. Mine was mostly un-edible stalk and i wasnt sure if it was romaine lettuce or not. With the romaine outbreak make sure you clarify want kind of greens y'all using. The salad was a waste. * Instead of a pinepaple wedge maybe a fruit salad.
Bin 26 Enoteca
📍 Address: 26 Charles St, Boston
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐ (3.5)
Great stylish "New York" type space, is marred by slow, slightly schizo service (who's waiting on me? i have no idea!) Two of us sat at the bar in a very busy December night, and had two glasses of wine and a small cheese board, which was nice, but not really worth the prices charged. The wine list IS impressive, but the prices are pretty high on the wine. But the space is really nice, and for a once in a while splurge, especially on someone else's expense account, it's a nice option on Beacon Hill.

Service and food (Organic Oatmeal Pancakes) was excellent. The waiter was efficient, attentive and very good at making sure we were taken care of. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
