Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Bravo Pizza you are everything a NYC pizza joint is supposed to be. Huge slices of cheesy, gooey perfection with tart/sweet tomato sauce. For $7.01 you can get two slices and a coke...now that's a…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: there was this dude who was into weightlifting who swore by this place, i thought it was just ok when i got it, although seven egg whites made me feel bada$$.

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: When ever I wanna get my PUMP on this is my spot!... The Pump Energy Food is that healthy treat you feel great about enjoying. Every time I order something from here I feel like I'm treating my body…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Very fun and friendly staff. Classic interiors. Extensive menu. I loved the onion rings and the FFs were good too. The veggie soup was a bit salty and greasy for my tastes but would definitely go…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I went to Mizu last night for dinner with a friend. I have to say, the sushi was good, but pretty overpriced, in my opinion. My friend and I had to wait a few minutes for a table, but less than the…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Do not believe the comments that brag about New York Dermatology Group and Dr. Colbert on this site. I am postiive the doctors and the employees write these reviews. I waited 2 hours to see Dr.…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: What I first noticed when I walked into The City Bakery, was how clean it was. This means big kudos in my book. The building was clean and the employees were as, well wearing white aprons and commis…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: First of all, I love that this place is next to a bookstore, as well as their dancing cupcake can-can ladies. But I have a theory - the prettier the cupcake, the more awful they taste. These were…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I had a really great experience. They took care to go over everything they were doing and I can't wait to go back. The office is really beautiful too and the staff is pleasant and attentive.

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I had really bad acne...and now I don't! I love Dr. Colbert and NYDG! Madeline M.

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Dimly lit, the atmosphere is as sexy as the food. The croquettes, goat cheese and honey and dates wrapped in bacon are must-haves. As far as sangria goes, I prefer their white, as opposed to the red…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: I have been going to Dr. Trahan for the past 4 years, originally for back problems but learned quick how helpful he was with a wide range of body issues. He helped me clear up a prostate infection…

Oct. 7, 2008 From Yelp.com: Warning, do not take her. Heather Golden is terrible. Waste of time, and especially not a good therapist. Find somebody else that can help you and serve you better.

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: This is a cool trendy spot...I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a nice lil birthday function here but do not want to blend with a large crowd. The waitress/bartenders are very attentive,…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: Solid restaurant week experience. Friend and I came during work and shared the 2 options offered for RW - didn't have any issues with the reservation/wait. Our waiter was very attentive and…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: I came here to try the much raved about chocolate chip cookie. The chocolate chips don't stand out and every bite of the cookie yields an overwhelming taste of something oily--vegetable oil? Not…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: this is my favorite restaurant in the world (as I know it). when I lived in Jersey, training the staff of a new restaurant, we would always end with a field trip to this place. the service here is…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: I really don't understand all the bad reviews. Yes, it's crowded and noisy and difficult to get a reservation, and while the crowd is not all locals, it is definitely not 100% tourists either, as…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: I had a feeling I wouldn't like this place when I stepped in the door. It was loud, packed, and they serve vietnamese\thai\japanese style food in a contemporary space. We had to wait about 15 minutes…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: Dr David Colbert is the best dermatologist i have ever been to. He not only is concerned about annual skin cancer checks, he wants you to feel good from the inside out! He is thourough and kind. he…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: When you enter Duke's BBQ, you find a small bar with a few high tables for snacking and bar food. If you continue to walk past this gaudy, but authentic feeling, BBQ bar area, you will find a cozy…

Oct. 6, 2008 From Yelp.com: Man, it must be hard to be in the nightlife business. Like my favorite strippers say in Gypsy "You gotta get a gimmick," and this place definitely has one, but it's lame at best. There's key holes…

Oct. 5, 2008 From Yelp.com: Mucho dinero, poco comida. High end for Chesea, this sleek new med. serves up superior service, enormous wine list and tiny portions of uneven food. Great, but small housebaked breads filled with…

Oct. 5, 2008 From Yelp.com: Absolute heaven. LF is probably my most favorite boutique/store in Manhattan! They have super trendy and funky clothes, shoes, jewlry, etc. You will seriously not find the stuff they have in that…

Oct. 5, 2008 From Yelp.com: The hot chocolate is as good as the reviews say. Had the brunch this past saturday, some bacon, eggs, carmelized french toast, mac & cheese, quiche...for two, all for about $35 bucks, not bad. Like…

Oct. 5, 2008 From Yelp.com: This is the most beautiful office. I spent thousands of dollars with Dr. Colbert but I had no results. Dr. Colbert barely examined me and just pushed his skin care products and his procedures. He…

Oct. 5, 2008 From Yelp.com: Among the best in the City, this Flatiron/Grammercy restaurant shines in almost every category. I've had one so so experience out of six with an over cooked entree and I'm writing it off as a fluke.…

Oct. 5, 2008 From Yelp.com: I've never eaten at Aspen so this review is strictly for the post-dinner scene. Went her to celebrate a friend-of-a-friend's birthday. Checked out the Yelp reviews beforehand and I can vouch for t
