Review Summary

Overall, Mandy's salads are praised for freshness, flavor, and generous ingredients, with standouts like the Habibi salad and the tuna salad earning high marks when portions are substantial. However, other reviews point to inconsistencies in portion size and value, missing toppings or dressing, and higher prices that some feel do not match what is received. Service ranges from friendly and efficient to slow or underwhelming, with a noted gift card processing hiccup on one visit. The ambiance and decor are repeatedly praised, and several locations are described as comfortable and welcoming. Taken together, Mandy's is seen as a go to for delicious, healthy salads, but experiences vary in food quantity, cost, and service.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Feedback for Sushi Sama suggests quick, friendly service but inconsistent quality and value. The sashimi and sushi were described as badly made, lumpy, and prone to falling apart, with portions that seemed heavy on rice. A spicy salmon roll was criticized for awkward toppings, while the soy or tamari was said to be watered down. Overall, reviewers felt the meal was not worth the price, despite the brisk service, which could satisfy a craving without a long wait.View restaurant profile
