Many unique pizzerias exist in the New Orleans area, but one local chain of pizza restaurants separates itself from the others. Pizzerias such as Moe’s, Slice, and Naked Pizza are popular local pizza establishments, but they do not come close to the quality of Rotolo’s Pizzeria. Rotolo’s was first established in 1996 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and has franchises located throughout the South. I have eaten there numerous times with different people and every experience was wonderful and delicious. Rotolo’s Pizzeria is a local eatery that displays an exceptional atmosphere, quick and friendly service, and magnificent food. Rotolo’s possesses an Italian-themed, comfortable atmosphere that is very welcoming while not being too loud or too
It is a long-with-standing stereotype that Italians love to gamble. This is true. My great grandfather, Pasquale Giovannone, played the riskiest hand of cards when he immigrated to the United States as an illegal stowaway at the age of thirteen. He forged a life for himself amidst the ever-changing social and political shifts of the early nineteenth century. The legacy he left would later lead to the birth of my father, John Giovannone, in Northern New Jersey in 1962.
Olive Garden always has a warm welcoming atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy dinner with your family. The waitresses and waiters are always respectful and care about your needs as a customer. On my many occasions to Olive Garden the service I get is always exceptional. I have a toddler and my servers were always very patient.
Chuy’s Tex-Mex Restaurant started in 1982 in Austin, TX off Barton Springs Rd. It was the vision of two friends, Mike Young and John Zapp. They wanted to create a restaurant that offered quality food, diverse options, and affordable prices. The first location was in an old, abandoned BBQ shack with limited room and space, but it would certainly do. Mike and John ran low on their budget for décor and ended up with $20 to spend. John went out to find as much décor as possible. “You can’t fake cheap.” said, John. One of the items John came back with was a velvet canvas of Elvis; thus the beginning of the signature culture and environment provide by Chuy’s. John and Mark say, “If you’ve seen one Chuy’s, you’ve seen one Chuy’s.” The one common denominator found in each location is the Elvis Shrine. From the very beginning The King has played a part in this successful restaurants growth and development.
Two locally owned famous restaurants in Sedalia, Missouri, El Espolon and El Tapatio, are both recognized as quality, authentic Mexican restaurants that serve Sedalia with outstanding service and great food. After paying each establishment a visit this past weekend, I have discovered some differences and similarities in the two. Although many of my relatives have chosen El Espolon as their favorite, I found El Tapatio to provide a more ethnic experience with their excellent food, sharp service, and clean venue.
The 1920s was a hard and painstaking era in American history. Many family's throughout New York lived in absolute poverty and saved week to week just to make enough to eat and pay the rent. Many Immigrants flooded the streets desperate for work while living conditions were harsh and many starved. This is just the case of the novel Bread Givers, written by Anzia Yezierska. In this story we follow Sarah Smolinsky, an ambiguous independent Jewish girl "trapped" by her religious traditions. Her story unfolds as she breaks away from her controlling parents and moves to work and go to school for hopes of being a school teacher. Her life is not easy and she must endure countless sacrifices just to get by. With the determination of her will she graduates college, but returns to her father to take care of him in his old age. In the begging of the story Sarah hates her father, and everything about him, and this relates to her hatred of his God and his traditions. From hatred of her father she refuses her Jewish traditions and religious beliefs to make a better life for her self in America. After accomplishing her goals, she can't ignore the emptiness of her fathers love. Sarah yearns with a wanting to be loved by her father. She begins feels remorse for him, and starts to remember her past and where she came from, returning slowly to her once lost traditions.
Fanny Fern once said, “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach” (Fern 1). This not only holds true for men, it surly can be said about anyone. A restaurant that can capture anyone’s heart is Carrabba’s Italian Grill. What makes it different from all the other Italian restaurants? That would be the authentic taste and experience the restaurant provides its customers with. Whether diners choose to go out to celebrate or gather the family for a delicious meal, there is one place that they will certainly enjoy having it at, Carrabba’s Italian Grill. This holds true because as a long-time customer, I’ve experienced Carrabba’s for different occasions from anniversaries, graduations to birthday parties
Applebee’s is a casual-dining chain owned by DineEquity based out of Glendale California. DineEquity, who also owns IHOP, acquired Applebee’s in 2007 for about $2.1 billion. The chain as of 2013 has over 2000 locations with plans to open even more in the future. The merger with IHOP resulted in being the largest casual dining company world with over 3,000 locations worldwide.
One key design principle of this establishment was of a casual sit-in dining restaurant opposed to being seated with a server and menus, a person must order from the front. This cuts down on the time it takes a family to wait, settle in, wait, and then order off or a menu. Also the restaurant is spacious and has a lot of seating allowing for a rush of people with no problem. Another key design that governed that effectiveness of this process what the way the kitchen was mostly exposed and in the front. If you were sitting close to the front you could watch your food be prepared. I’m sure the cooks feel the extra pressure being under the watchful eye of the people whom the food belongs to. Another design principle that governs the effectiveness of the process in Jason’s Deli is the menu itself. The menu is pretty diverse but the one common denominator is that the food is recognized as healthy and made from the freshest ingredients possible. Finally I would add the self-servicing drink station is another key design principle because this cuts down on the time it take to wait for a waitress for a drink refill (if this were a formal restaurant).
Receiving steady business and making sure customer’s wants and needs are met in the restaurant world is the only way to ensure a successful business. The environments you experience can affect everything. Panera Bread’s comfortable relaxed environment encourages a happy mood which will lead to people continuing to dine with them. Panera Bread is an excellent restaurant and my overall experience was amazing. I will recommend the restaurant to other with no discretion.
Panera Bread is a “fast-casual” restaurant that provides a variety of sandwiches, soups, smoothies, and baked goods. They are in between the typical fast food restaurants and the sit down dinning. They offer high quality, healthier products at a fast pace. They are focused on the broad differentiation strategy. They differentiate themselves from their competition in many ways. You can chose to take it to go or sit down and dine in an alluring atmosphere. Some Panera Breads have fireplaces, cozy seating, higher quality furniture and gathering rooms to make you come in and relax or come in and do some work. With an advantage to their competition, Panera has the relaxed atmosphere, quick service, healthier options, at a reasonable price that puts them above others.
Is earning your own money bad? The article The Fast Food Factories: McJobs are bad for kids was written by Amitai Etzioni and published by The Washington Post in 1986. In this article Etzioni states, and I quote, “theses jobs undermine school attendance and involvement, impact few skills that will be useful in later life, and simultaneously skew the values of teen-agers—especially their idea about the worth of a dollar.” Because I am currently in high school and have a job, I strongly believe jobs are helpful, contain many basic life learning skills, but often diminishes teen-agers` thoughts of the value of money.
At Bianco, this seems to come naturally. Initially, people might try Pizzeria Bianco to sample the fabled food. After all, restaurant critics don’t just like this place, they rave about it: “I first ate at Pizzeria Bianco in 2009, and it rocked my world. It was the best pizza I’d ever had, and I’ve eaten at many of the top-ranked pizzerias around the world” (Olmsted p 4). However, what keeps people coming back for decades is far more complex and includes how Pizzeria Bianco makes them feel. The combination of exceptional ingredients, Chris’ genius creativity, the staff’s impeccable warmth, reasonable prices and a little bit of something magical makes for a near perfect experience. Beginning from the moment you open the door, up until the time you receive and pay the check, this place offers value: you get more than what you pay for

The author writes “Pizzeria da Michele is a small place with only two rooms and one non-stop oven.” (Gilbert 176). That small section of text gives an almost complete picture of the place; it’s the rough equivalent of an American Ma and Pa family restaurant. It’s not a fancy place, and for the purpose it serves, it does not have to be a spectacular place cosmetically. The atmosphere of the pizzeria is what makes this place so special. Gilbert writes, “By 1:00 PM, the streets outside the pizzeria have become jammed with Neapolitans trying to get into the place, shoving for access like they're trying to get space on a lifeboat.” (Gilbert 176). This pizzeria gets busy early on in the day. Once can infer, based on that textual example alone, that the pizza this pizzeria serves is simply
From a succulent fresh lobster tail to a mouth-watering red snapper filet, everyone loves some type of seafood. The residents of our city are lucky, restaurants specializing in seafood are plentiful. Many locals consider Pappadeux and Joe's Crab Shack to be the best. Although they both serve wonderful, fresh seafood, the differences in the menu, the service, and the overall atmosphere set them apart from one another.
