    EXCELLENT DAILY SPECIAL

    I am a Chinese and moved here from Houston about year and half ago. I love to eat and always looking for good Chinese restaurants. Compare to Houston, I know my chance are not very good. I went to one of the top rated Chinese restaurant to eat last week and the owner told me about Pearl Inn. They will go to eat at Pearl Inn when they want some Cantonese style Chinese food. I thought a famous Chinese restaurant owner come here to eat it has to be good. I am glad that I pay them a visit today. The outside of restaurant need some face lift, but inside are very nicely decorated. It looks much better than a lot of Chinese restaurants I have visited in the past. I heard it is owned and operated by a couple from Hong Kong. Husband attends the Kitchen and Wife does everything else. I found her very pleasant and friendly. It does take a while to get your food, but you know it is freshly prepare by an expert. They serve daily special for $5 include main dish, fried rice, egg roll and ice tea. If you want soup it is $1 extra. It serves until 5:00pm and all day on Sunday. There are a lot of choices. I ordered something off the menu which is Singapore style fried rice noodle so if you like something even is not on the menu make sure ask. I also ordered the fish with Jalapeño and combination fried rice. They are all very good. I thought my fish will be some kind of fried fish nugget but no they are actually big piece of fish fillet. For $5, I can’t believe it. My Singapore noodle is delicious with just right amount of heat. It might be too hot for someone else but I love spicy food. The amount of the food is huge. I ordered three dishes. I got three big Styrofoam containers full of food and all for $20. They can last me for a week. Pearl Inn server a lot of typical dishes plus a lot of Cantonese style dishes and they also have a lot of Hunan and Sichuan style dishes as well. I prefer Pearl Inn than Kim Wah on Bandera and Phoenix on West Ave. Kim Wah is too expensive and they do not give you a lot of food. Phoenix is kind of dirty inside and the foods are nothing special.

    IT IS NOT GREAT AS I HAVE EXPECTED

    We were searching the best Margarita in San Antonio so we decide to give La Fogata a try. We asked for an outdoor seating and ended up seated in a place covered with a big tent which I do not consider outdoor. We had a very attentive waiter, the salsa was good and the food came out piping hot. We ordered the Top Shelf Margarita which was good but I have better elsewhere. For meal we had the Picadillo Enchiladas and Chile Relleno with Beef Picadillo. The Rice, Borracho Bean and Chile Relleno are all very bland. The enchiladas are average. The food is kind of pricy. We will continue our search elsewhere. By the way we prefer Rosario’s on S Alamo Street than La Fogata. \r \r

    THE FOOD IS NOT CONSISTENT

    This review is for their breakfast sandwich. I have been addicted to their artisan egg sandwich with bacon. The first time was very good. The artisan muffin was nicely toasted and the bacon was big. The following two visits, the muffin was soft and not well toasted, egg was running and you can barely see the bacon. There is no quality control at all. They were not even busy at the time.

    IT IS NOT FOR ME

    The store is dark and dusty not very well organized. Stuff piled up all over the places and you can barely walk around. Their stuff looks to me like left over from another resale shop. They do have a large area with lot of music CDs old albums and books etc. If that is what you are interested. It is a waste of time for me.

    CHECK OUT IS A NIGHTMARE

    Wal-Mart is trying to cut their staff so check out is a nightmare. You think they will at least staff more during weekend. I have to wait for 30 minutes just to go through express check out. People with cart load are going through express check out. When cashier run into problem they can not find a manager to help them. Cashier are taking their time and chatting with each other despite the long line and long wait. They don’t care anymore. This reminds me of how K Mart went out of business. K Mart had good prices but their customer service and check out is so bad that people just stop going there.

    GREAT FOOD AND SERVICE

    I think this is one of the older IHOP. We only come here for breakfast. We enjoy the food and the service is excellent. We always leave happy. They have senior special and coupon that makes even better.

    I LIKE THE SERIOUS SANDWICH

    I have tried their Serious and Rueben. Serious is good and I will order that again but I do not like the Rueben. I hate the mustard sauce they put in it. The service is kind of slow. Make sure call ahead. Zito sure beats Subway and Quizeno.

    LONG WAIT, NOT HELPFUL

    This review is for their Pharmacy Department. Long wait. Short staffed. Not helpful when ask question.

    NOT SO GOOD

    My co-worker brought some pork tamales from Ruben's for potluck. The tamales are dry and tasteless.
