TPC Resident Restaurant Reviews
These restaurant and dining reviews establish a marker for future reviews. Each review will be provided by a resident. The Communications Committee selected a small number of residents to review the restaurants in the Valley to give PCMANews.org readers honest opinions of their experiences. Requested are their opinion of the atmosphere or noise level, how was the service and most importantly – how was the food. Reviewers will rate the overall value via $, $$, $$$, or $$$$.
