All Pierogi Kitchen & Euro Market– Mesa Arizona

March 16, 2017

The parking lot wasn't the best, but there was a handicap spot toward the other end of the shopping center. The front area was alright getting in, but past that was a bit crowded and they seated us at a table next to the kitchen and it wasn't the easiest table for me to get parked under. Also I couldn't get to the restroom.

Chanpen Thai Cusine– Phoenix Arizona

March 10, 2017

This was next to a grocery store and there was not great parking. I had to drive my wheelchair through the middle of the parking lot for quite a ways to get on the sidewalk. To get to the bathroom inside there was a long skinny hall way.  I could get to the bathroom barely, but I did and when you get to the restroom it was actually surprisingly accessible, but they did have their cleaning supplies under the sink and in the way a bit. Just barely made it in and out, and getting out was slightly harder. But the rest of the restaurant was pretty nice and accessible and our table worked well.

Niccoli's Italian Grocery-Deli – Phoenix Arizona

March 9, 2017

There was okay parking and there were a couple of handicap spots. Inside was very crowded the owner was telling another employee were to put something and another lady said they’re trying to get in, so eventually we got in.  There wasn’t a lot of room, but the owner just gave us our menus and said you usually order here but we could sit down and look at the menu and she’d come to take our order. The dining area was actually quite spacious and easy to get through. Our table though was a tad bit low for me, but we made it work.

Big Mama's Kitchen & Catering – Omaha Nebraska

August 10, 2016

Parking was a bit difficult, but I suppose it worked okay. Then you have to follow the signs and then take an elevator upstairs to the cafeteria which is in an old school. The cafeteria part was easy to get around and our table worked well.

Quad cities botanical Park – Rock Island Illinois

August 7, 2016

There was a lot of accessible paths but a couple of them kind of just ended, and to go out on the grass in some places. From the inside you had to take a hall and then you come to the outdoor train area, but down that hall was a desk sitting there which made it pretty difficult to get through the hall. The rest of the inside was fairly accessible.

Quad Cities Convention & Visitors Bureau – Davenport Iowa

August 6, 2016

We were in Davenport Iowa and we were walking over to the sky bridge before a baseball game at Modern Woodman Park. But we stopped here mostly to go to the bathroom. It was a bit crowded in the place between all the displays and things they were trying to sell. The restroom was pretty crowded but I guess it worked.

Las Glorias Grill– Phoenix Arizona

March 8, 2016

There was construction going on in the parking lot and part of the building. I made it inside all right and to our table. It wasn’t very spacious inside and the restroom I couldn’t get in.

Ye Old Pancake Station – Amarillo, Texas

October 29, 2015

The handicap spot was taken and that car also blocked part of the ramp to get to the sidewalk, but I made it. Inside was a bit crowded, but we were seated at the first table in front so that was easy to get to. The restroom had no wheelchair access with a very small door.

The Alamo – San Antonio, Texas

October 27, 2015

This was very old obviously, but there was a rough place to drive over to get there with the cobblestone and when we got to the actual Alamo it was okay going in and looking around I just couldn’t go out the door you are supposed to to leave because there were steps, so I just had to go back out the front. Around the outside there was a nice grassy areas and monument type places. The restroom was really quite terrible it was rather small and a lot of people were using it. I couldn’t even get in the stall so I pretty much just went in my urinal in the corner.

Gristmill restaurant – New Braunfels, Texas

10/25/2015     
   
This was in a busy little area with multiple restaurants and shops and things going on. We finally found a lot to park in with a handicap spot. But had to go a ways and cross the street to get to the restaurant. Then from there, there is a long cobblestone path either that or through the rough grass. When we finally got there. The table was a bit low underneath part anyways and it was a bit difficult to get under with my wheelchair. Then to get to the restroom there was more cobblestone path to get to basically an outhouse with water and I could barely get in and out of it. When we’re done eating I found a paved driveway which saved my back from having to bounce all the way out on the cobblestone.

San Antonio Japanese Tea Garden – San Antonio, Texas

October 22 2015

Their sign however says Chinese garden

This place was not exactly very accessible there were steps up to the front, but there is a ramp to the side.  At the top of the ramp there is a shelter that looks down at the garden. Part of the area there is sandy and gravelly and I needed to be pushed to get back onto the sidewalk and ramp to go back down. I had to go down the ramp back to the parking lot to get to the lower area were the garden was. Down in the garden was pretty nice but it was difficult to navigate a lot of the places down there.

Chris’s café Santa Fe New Mexico

March 12, 2015

This is a small place.  The biggest table they had available had a bar which would hit me just below my knees so that didn’t work so good. So we took the only other table available which was too small for the three of us, but we found a way to make it work.
