"I am aware that there have been changes in food quality due to Covid, but my recent visit to Erics Deli was quite disappointing. I ordered the Total Turkey Feast, which did not live up to its former standards. I used to enjoy this dish once or twice during the holiday season. While there was plenty of turkey and stuffing, there was only a small amount of cranberry and no sauce at all. I also tried the "Texas Jailhouse" Chili, which was not as bean-filled, meaty, or chunky as it used to be. I will give Erics Deli one more chance, but if there is no improvement, I may try to recreate the old style dishes at home."

"They're really going the extra mile during extraordinary times. They are going above and beyond in the service, quality, and ambience. We felt super safe sitting outside with the partitions and protections they have in place. The service was just EXTRAORDINARILY friendly and helpful, and though we've been to Asa many times before it felt like a new and special experience."

"the server was very nice. he was too attentive at the beginning and seemed to forget to refill coffee, ice cream, water. the busboy began to delete plates while others had eaten. please train their employees to wait until everyone is done before they delete the table."

"Veggie Garden offers a good selection of Chinese and Korean style vegan dishes, as well as Japanese Tempura. The entree portions are ample. The food is tasty. My favorite dish is the General’s Chicken. The lunch special provides soup, tea and your choice of rice, noodles or a rice/noodle combo. You can choose either white or brown rice. The desserts are very good, my favorite is the Vegan Raspberry Chocolate cake. They also serve beer and warm sake. The room is pleasant, with good quality tables and chairs and if you enjoy listening to smooth jazz and contemporary R&B you will love it here. The people working here are friendly and efficient. The one problem is the parking lot is small and there are other businesses in the mini mall so sometimes it is difficult to find parking. One bonus of eating here is it is located next to two shopping malls and a Whole Foods is across the street, so you can plan to eat lunch here then do your shopping before heading home."

"I recently visited Everest Cuisine to try their dine-in option after being a loyal customer of their tandoori momos for a few years now. As soon as we walked in, we were seated promptly even though the restaurant was full. I was amazed by the variety on their menu, they had a lot of curries that I had never seen before in any other restaurant.We decided to order our favorite tandoori momos, Mango lassi and paneer vindaloo. To our surprise, this was the first time we found a restaurant that served vegetarian vindaloo. Very few restaurants have it, and it was amazing. The server was very sweet, and he helped us with our order.However, the food took longer than we expected, and we had to wait for 35 minutes which was frustrating. Although they did apologize for the delay, it was disappointing. Additionally, the prices at Everest Cuisine were on the higher side compared to other Indian restaurants in the area.To make matters worse, they charged us for lemon, chillies, and onion, which was unusual since no other restaurant we had visited did this. Despite this, the food was delicious, and the service was great.Overall, I would recommend Everest Cuisine to anyone who is willing to splurge on a delicious meal. Just be prepared to wait a little longer than usual and expect some extra charges on your bill."
