If you ever need flowers on a Sunday, plan ahead many flower shops aren't open on Sundays. Petals A Flower answered their phone after a few flower stores who advertised to be on Sunday didn't pick up. Given that it is the new years weekend, it seems like they may be closed to rest. I wanted to get my girlfriend some flowers for her birthday and I wanted them delivered same day by a certain time.
Alexa, who helped me, provided some AMAZING service. She told me that they were actually partially closed because they were doing renovations and told me they were low on flowers. BUT she was able to work with me to get flowers delivered today and withing a couple hours. What great service!! I told her a budget and she was willing to work with me. She assured me that the arrangement would be beautiful and would be promptly delivered. I am sure my girlfriend will like the flowers when she receives them.
I am really happy with the great customer service Alexa provided to me. This will be the place I turn to when I need flowers when I'm in San Francisco.

Sherrie Long Makeup & Hair Review
I'm so happy that I used Sherrie to do my hair and makeup for my wedding in July. She did a great job and I love how everything turned out. Sherrie also does hair and makeup for fashion magazines and some celebrities, so she has a lot of experience. I did a trial run with her before my engagement pictures where we went through a few hair and makeup looks. I ended up changing my hair a little on the actual wedding day and Sherrie took everything in stride and did a great job. The team that she brought with her to do the bridesmaids' hair was also wonderful. They got everyone done in time and I thought everybody looked great. My hair even withstood a windy day in San Francisco and lasted all night. Her makeup photographs beautifully also.
Here prices are a little pricey as some reviewers noted, but when I compared her to other people who focused on wedding hair and makeup, I found them to be pretty average. However, I was willing to splurge on hair and makeup since I knew that was one of the things that would really bother me if it didn't look good at the wedding.
Sherrie is very professional and does amazing work. She does book fast so be sure to talk to her early.

Echo Furniture Review
I came across Echo Furniture after scouring furniture store reviews in SF on Yelp. I decided to go with Echo and boy, am I glad that I did. First off, the prices relative to the quality that you're getting is unbelievable. I bought a leather couch and not only is it very comfortable, it looks awesome too.
I also got a square ottoman, but Cliff told me that they had run out. So Cliff offered me a brand new circular ottoman as a rental until the square one came in a few months later. Cliff personally delivered the square ottoman when it was ready for delivery.
Echo Furniture deserves another Kudo from me. Cliff is the BEST person to go to for any home furnishing advice. From carpet, to window coverings, to color matching, to furniture style... He is generous to share his knowledge and he would spend as much time as you need with you. Cliff told me what to look out for when I purchase a carpet, even when I'm not buying from him. He would go out of his way to make sure I'm getting the right things for my house.

Sunset Pet Supply Review
This place is great! They carry a large variety of dog food and my dog's breed (bichon) isn't supposed to eat poultry products because it messes with their skin and they have tons of choices without poultry in it. Definitely a plus! A good selection of treats as well, and my doggie loves coming here and sniffing everything. Prices may be a little bit more than your petco, but you pay for good quality.
For my hamster, I buy the only brand that they carry - but he loves it and it's HEALTHY for them! He had a kind of urinary infection early on in his life and the veterinarian asked what kind of food we gave him - the mix of seeds, corn and grains and she said that's pretty unhealthy for him. She suggested we go across the street and pick up the food they have there because it's VERY nutritious and healthy for him. Of course, we obliged and he hasn't had any health problems since. He's a very healthy hamster rounding on his second year of life and I contribute it to his diet. Unfortunately, we have been giving him a lot of sugary treats and we suspect he may be diabetic but we've cut out on the sugary treats and have increased the healthy veggies in his diet.

Suetake Bros, Inc Review
Akira did a fantastic job with my fiance's engagement ring. I would highly recommend him and there is a reason why he has received only five star reviews on Yelp. Several friends have also used him and they feel the same way that I do.
Akira is exactly the type of merchant one would like to deal with when making such an important purchase. He is patient, reasonable, very accommodating, and a true artisan. His pricing is well below retail but you get the same, if not better, quality that you would at TIffany or Shreve. I would especially recommend Akira to inexperienced buyers of jewelry who are not as familiar with the process and might be a little nervous about making such a large purchase.
I had done a little of my own research, but was basically a rookie when it came to fine jewelry. Eddie was patient with me when I asked rookie questions. He knew the right questions to ask in order to bring about the design of the engagement ring my fiance would love. He provided a no pressure environment where I felt comfortable from the get go. No doubt I will be coming back for all my custom jewelry in the future.
