I would suggest visiting the shops to see what the instructors and shops are like. As a new diver my experience is decidedly limited to only a couple of the shops on this list.
If you haven't already done so, there are a few threads on this board about questions you should ask a potential instructor or local dive shop (LDS) when considering training with them.
I did have great experiences with my instructors for the certs I have completed, and think that the combination of instructor and shop you choose to do business with is important when starting out.
