Also, multiple TVs and a SONOS system, Ray (and Jill) were extremely knowledgeable, able to understand our needs and recommend a system that matched our requirements. My wife is typically electronics "challenged" and they were patient and willing to explain and familiarize her with our system. No question was out-of-bounds and the result was two satisfied customers. My past experiences were gained from multiple home theater setups with complex Denon amps and state-of-art (at that time) arrangements. Encore's pricing is reasonable for the its' service levels and advice. Combine that knowledge with easy scheduling, showing up on time, using drop clothes and cleaning up after themselves merits a 5 star review.

They were very thorough and made a point to account for everything in the box and their serial numbers and that I felt comfortable with the storage of my property. I was very impressed with this. Unfortunately, things kept popping up financially and I wasn't able to pick up and fulfill my loan agreement for the original price they offered me. Luckily though, the owners had no problem keeping my Switch for that time as long as I paid the monthly fee of $30. And when I was finally able to pick up my device and pay the fees, they graciously offered it back for the same original agreement price! I definitely was not expecting such a great deal! Overall outstanding customer service and I definitely would recommend anyone who needs to pawn their valuables to support this local business.

However, when I asked what brand of turntables they carry , I was told they don't sell turntables but they can order one through their vendors. In fact, I was told, they had ordered a turntable for a customer but it was a disaster. Asked if they could order a specific highly rated brand, the sales person didn't know what it was... She did tell me that they don't sell receivers either. I hadn't asked about receivers. Amplifier? Pointed to an amp on the floor. Very unfriendly to the point of insulting. AUDIOPHILES BEWARE!

However, the final product (the glasses) was very expensive. I am not sure that the quality and/or the maker of the frames justified the price. I did not shop around, because of the illustrious reputation of the store. I would suggest that a client carefully shops the market before selecting this store. You may find that the cost of their product exceeds the value. Caveat emptor, buyer beware. Vanessa Smith

I visited Soto's Optical on Main Street in Sarasota two week ago. I had previously ordered…read moreeyeglasses from another optical store and returned them because the prescription was not made properly. In addition the optician argued with me about my sight and told me my doctor did not get the prescription correct. It was time to move on. I was very fortunate to find Soto's Optical. All the staff were friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. This was a very refreshing change from the previous optician. If you have worn glasses for any length of time you know when your glasses do not fit properly and your vision is not corrected properly. At this point I was very frustrated because I could not see properly. I ordered my glasses and just picked them up today. What a big difference. I can actually see again. I would highly recommend Soto's Optical Boutique. I will continue to support this business in the future.

He said he could order one but I explained , I had come from Sarasota but wanted one right away without the standard waiting time.

The store would perhaps do better if located in a more populous area such as Sarasota.

This company is deceptive and dishonest. Allure does not take responsibility for their mistakes…read more We bought new Quartzite countertops from Allure. They took my new sink to their shop in order to cut the hole for the sink to properly fit. It turns out that regardless of having my sink, they cut the hole for the sink as an under-mount, not the over-mount sink that I had. On location, they had to re-cut the quartzite for my sink to fit and the technician cracked the counter top piece. I notified allure and they said that they would replace the material when they got more in. They said that they were out. They told me that they were searching for the material. I got the same reply over and over each time that I called. I finally realized that they were stringing me along. I noticed that most of the people working at Allure were from Turkey. I contacted the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Allure told the BBB that they would reimburse me $800 to cover the cost of the cracked piece. Allure never followed through. I also filed a complaint about Allure to the FL Attorney General's office. Buyer beware of this company.
