Cha-Cha's Mexican Restaurant

One of my Favorite restaurants.

With the exception of one shitty waiter, the service is exceptional. To give you an idea of how exceptional; even the owner (at the original location) will come out to clear tables, pour water, etc.

The food is freakin' awesome, and the menu hasn't changed to accomodate tourists whose idea of authentic, fine Mexican cuisine is made at El Torito or Chi Chi's. There's an old restaurant here in town that caved to tourists and changed their menu to the point that I refuse to go any more. It used to be really good. Now they serve crap.

Dillard's Department Store

I went into the Ingram Park Mall store to buy The Warden a new purse & a wallet. I wrote the check for $536 and the Certegy check approval service denied it!!

I got on the Dillard's web site and complained. Three days later the store manager called back. I also got an email from them.

Very refreshing to have a big company actually recognize a paying customer as the reason they're in business.

Discount Tint and Alarm

I've only been to this San Antonio business once, but they treated me right. The owner was very friendly and didn't feed me a line of shit or make a hard sell for shit I didn't need.

When I went back because a couple of the windows had air bubbles in them, they replaced them without whining or trying to weasel their way out of making things right.
