    the guy who threatened my dad

    very very poor. staff was rude as soon as we got there. then they proceeded to not give us our drinks (okay forgetful that's okay) and my brother reached to grab the small cups we payed for. the lady who rang us up smacked my brothers hand away and told him not to reach over there and i politely asked them to be nicer. the lady was automatically rude to me and mocked me. my bf asked for her name and she ignored him. later the fountain machine went white, the screen went blank. my bf politely told a different lady and she said "that's not f*ing funny. my father got up and started telling that lady that he's not happy about the whole staff being rude to his family. the lady then started being rude to us. mind you this is a new lady. she made my food and i was very very nice. i told her that where i work even if the customers are rude to me (which we weren't being) that i still have a smile on my face. my dad then asked for a manager for help with the machine. the original lady came up to my dad and told them to contact the business online.. and i quote.. "i'm not f*cking dealing with you right now y'all are being a bunch of a*holes." i could never imagine ever treating a customer like this. my dad then tried to take a picture of her from where the register is to report her and this bigger guy that works there ran up to him from the other side of the wall and my dad jumped. the guy asked him why he jumped and my dad said "bc you just tried to run up on me". my dad started walking away and the guy said.. again and i quote.. "if you wanna see me run up on you we can go outside then i'll catch you there." then i started to get involved. bc be rude? okay sure that's fine not illegal but to threaten my dad when all of us were being nice to you? that's absurd. i started yelling at him saying "are you f*cling kidding me? did you really just threaten him? then i tried to start recording and the manager (i think) lady started telling me that she's going to call the cops on us if we didn't leave. i walked out. we then realized that me cousin was i. the bathroom that entire last encounter and so my dad went in there and waited for him (he's 14). i couldn't imagine treating people the way they did us today. i work a food business way busier then they ever are and i might be frustrated sometimes but i never take it out on the customers. even if they are being rude. looking at these reviews, it's crazy that nothing has been done for these terrible employees. i can guarantee that if the manager didn't think it was okay to treat customers like that then the rest wouldn't either. there's no reason why this problem hasn't been fixed yet and i will be calling corporate as soon as the open, at 9 am Monday morning.

    I think I was clear in asking for extra rice and extra beans on the puny little burrito they gave me...
    Hal M.

    Oh for the love of Pete. We had eaten here about 5 times with fairly decent results until this week. I placed my normal order for two burritos, one being the Art V. with only rice, beans, cheese and fresh jalapenos, and so as always I ordered "Extra Rice and Extra Beans." Stated clearly on the item order as well as the overall comment section order. And I clicked the slider to indicate double rice. Figured I had my bases covered. Now, it was Moe Monday where everything is $6.99 it seems, but I didn't care, I wanted two full-size burritos as I ordered. When I got the bag it seemed light to me, but I mistakenly waited to get home to look. What I pulled out were two anemic little burritos that were actually not even large enough to call soft tacos. Both together would not equal a normal burrito. This would not have upset me so much if I had not just paid $24 for 2 burritos and some queso dip and gotten what around $4 would have gotten me at Taco Bell. My wife called and we were told by the woman who answered "we ran out of full-size burrito shells. And everything is the same price anyway today." No, not acceptable. I said out loud before the call ended that I was going down there, which would explain why a guy who I assume was the manager on duty met me at the register. He gave me a very curt "Can I help you?" Not a good start. I was on the fence on having them remake the order or getting my money back until that moment. His hostile tone and posture made up my mind. "I would like my money back for this order." "What's wrong with it?" (Still hostile) I pulled out the tiny (and I mean tiny, Taco Bell's $1.00 bean and cheese burritos are larger) Art V and said "This is NOT a full-size Burrito." "Yeah, well, we ran out of full-size shells." I looked around when I came in and noticed everyone in there with burritos eating full-size burritos, and the staff on the line making, you guessed it, full-size burritos. I said something about it being totally unacceptable to give us such a tiny little thing for $7 and was told again, everything is the same price on that day. Again, hostile attitude. I don't care what sort of insane price thing they have, sending someone out the door with two tiny little burritos and a cup of queso and charging them $24 (Well, $22 because I added a $2 tip as always...) is absurd. And compounding that by treating me as if I am the jerk because I am unhappy with that, is the epitome of poor customer service. I said I wanted my money back, he angrily asked me if I wanted him to remake the order but at that point, no way in hell. I said no, I want my money back, and I want the name and number of the manager. After fumbling with the register and failing to refund my card, he shoved the cash for the order in my hand, went in the back for 3 minutes and came back out with a single name "Carolyn" and the phone number for the store scribbled on a scrap of paper. He told me she was the store manager, and would be there tomorrow. I left. I intended to go down the next day but how much time do I feel like spending with this now that I am over an hour in? I sent in a comment through the "How did we do?" link at the bottom of the order. 24 hours ago I got an email from corporate: "Thank you for alerting us about the recent issue regarding your purchase at Moe's Southwest Grill. We take the incident you described very seriously and apologize for any problems you encountered as a result. This particular Moe's is an independently owned and operated franchise. We have forwarded your concerns to the owner/operator and have asked them to reach out to you as soon as possible. Loyal guests are the foundation of our business. Your satisfaction is important to us and is one of the many reasons we are committed to providing a quality, great-tasting product with quick and friendly service." No response from the owner 26 hours later. So, unfortunately, I cannot recommend THIS Moe's location in any way. Honestly, I've never been treated so poorly in a customer service situation. They obviously figure that the college kids will offer them a continuously replenishing supply of customers so they don't care what the locals think or if we eat there.

    The service at this location is incredibly slow compared to others. My most recent visit was horrible. They gave me old, soggy, flimsy, gross lettuce. They say you get free chips with every purchase, but they were out of chips and did not offer to make more. They were also out of spicy chipotle sauce

I came in and sat at the bar hoping to enjoy a top shelf margarita and a nice lunch. I waited for no less than 20-25 minutes, with servers walking back and forth...the owner(who I verified by asking him) moving about the kitchen. No one stopped to even look in my direction. Finally one of the servers came over and said , "I didn't see you." I was so annoyed at this point I should have walked out...but I stayed, ordered a drink and a taco salad. Here's the thing...the margarita was delicious and the salad was very good. But the service was horrible! I felt ignored and when I tried to engage the owner in conversation he was clearly not wanting to speak to me. Very unfriendly. The second experience was today when I ordered via Door Dash. I wanted the same salad I had at the restaurant when I was there in person a few weeks back. I also ordered some chips and salsa. The order arrived in a decent amount of time, but there was no salsa in the bag. When I called to report this to the restaurant a woman on the other end told me that I could drive to the restaurant and pick up some salsa if I wanted it. I tried to explain that the reason I had ordered my dinner via DoorDash is because I wanted the food delivered to me this evening. She tried to blame DoorDash for the problem but clearly someone at the restaurant had forgotten to put the salsa in the bag. It had nothing to do with DoorDash. I then asked for a refund of the chips and salsa and she refused. Needless to say I will not be going back to this restaurant ever again. The customer service is nonexistent.

The pork bao in particular had this beautiful char that added just the right smoky depth without overpowering the sweetness. Absolute standout. The ramen was exceptional. Rich, balanced, and clearly made with care. My tonkatsu was beautifully caramelized -- that golden crust giving way to tender, juicy pork -- while my girlfriend's chicken katsu was crispy, perfectly cooked, and somehow still light. No sogginess, no shortcuts -- just done right. The atmosphere strikes that sweet spot between cozy and modern, and the service was genuinely warm and attentive without hovering. One of my favorite touches? The large visual menu on the wall. For anyone who isn't super familiar with this style of cuisine, it makes ordering approachable and stress-free. Such a smart move. Yori House nails flavor, texture, presentation, and hospitality. Can't recommend it strongly enough -- we'll absolutely be back.

The menu is very interesting with everything Korean, Japanese and Thai inspired from fried rice to tacos to noodle dishes. Service was very good and though the restaurant is small, it is well appointed. We ordered edamame and a pork bun for appetizers. The edamame were served lightly salted and warm and the pork bun wonderful and flavorful. I highly recommend. For a main dish, I ordered the pad Thai with shrimp. The only complaint I have is that the dish was pretty salty. The shrimp were delicious and the portions for everything were generous. We ordered spicy fried rice to take home and I'm so glad we did. Sorry but no photo of the pork bun as we dove into it as soon as we got it.

Every time I lament the fact I spent money to eat there... I had read that this was a good one on the 'Where Syracuse Eats' Facebook page, which can be a pit of snakes at times. I decided to bookmark it, as a 'just in case' I was ever passing through Waterloo. To be honest, I was a bit skeptical when my mom and I walked in around 5:30-5:45 p.m. and not a soul was in the place. Apparently, people in Waterloo eat dinner around 6 p.m. so the place was popping as we were eating and then leaving. My mom is a vegetarian so we shared the vegetarian combo D plate. I ate the tostaguac and she had the enchilada, and we shared the rice. I normally find the rice at Mexican restaurants to be underwhelming, even at my favorite spot in Detroit. This was delicious and I ate it! (There may have been some debate on who should get the last few bites of rice!) I also ordered a side of their hot salsa. I think this was $2 but it was so good and so worth it. The regular salsa was fine but not spicy at all. Service was fast once we decided what to order. No pictures because I was too excited by an actual Mexican place within a reasonable distance from me! Skip the places in Syracuse and come to La Fiesta Brava!
