Text - I moved here from SoCal just over a year ago and I absolutely love it (the apartment I picked, The Cantera, & I am enjoying living in Vegas). Being that I came from one of the high end luxury apartments in OC, I was seriously concerned I'd end up hatiing it. However, I'm happy to report my experiences here have been great! It's also much more quiet than my last place, which does say alot. When I first walked through the Leasing office doors (over a year ago), this was the last and final place I went to tour. I had to wait a few months to get the unit & location I wanted, but I'm glad I did. The one that was open for move in immediately was right on Rainbow. Though it was tempting to take it, I knew with my sensitivity to noise & privacy I would have regreted it. So long story short, I am very happy here. The only thing I could say is that the craftmanship isn't the greatest here. My place in OC was immpecible in that department. But that's one small thing I am willing to overlook for all the other more important issues to consider living in any apartment. The mainance has also been great. Anytime I've needed them, they are there and take care of things quickly. I absolutely recommend this place and the general vibe of the complex, neighbors and of course the office staff.

Text - Great upscale sitdown taco restaurant from the folks who run the fabulous Fuego Bistro.  $8 - $10 at lunch gets you two substantial tacos, black beans and arroz con gandules (tasty rice with pigeon peas).  Pernil Asado (marinated pork shoulder with mango chile salsa) was fabulous and my colleague loved her veggie tacos.  Downsides -- a bit dark inside and service is just o.k. (attentive but not particularly pleasant/inviting).  Well worth another visit.

Text - If you are a 21 year old, irresponsible traveler, looking to book a room to host a party and then trash the room - then this is the hotel for you. What you don't know, up front, is that The Hard Rock charges a $100 dollar PER NIGHT deposit upon check in. I knew there was a service charge ($7.59 per night in addition to what I paid for the room) but I did not know they'd charge my credit card for $100 per night in addition to that. Why, you ask - because every other room on my floor was hosting a party!. \n\nAdd to that the fact that they charge for use of the hotel gym - an additional $20 per day and the fact that there was construction going on behind the pool area, and the construction workers thought it was a good idea to drag trollys across the pool area and wake us up at 5 am. YES - 5 AM!!!! We had to open the balcony door and yell down after 20 minutes of continual noise.\n\nAlso, take caution when dining at Mr. Lucky's. The guy across from us vomited all over the floor just before our food arrived. Be prepared to deal with the over-zealous party people who can't hold their liquor. \n\nWhat we did like about the hotel (though we'll never stay there again) was - the bed was comfortable, the rooms were nice and the casino was well appointed. Eat at the Pink Taco if you get the chance, it's really good food.\n\nThere's also a CVS pharmacy across the street where you can buy your beer for a 3rd of what the hotel charges!

Text - If I could use the work \""YUCK\"" to tell how back the food is here I would but simply don't it would do justice. \n\nUnfortunately we were in between lunch and dinner hours and most places I wanted to go to were closed. This was open but not too full. \n\nThe service was somewhat slow and everyone seemed to be waiting while the staff cleaned. \n\nWe ordered a handful of rolls and seafood fried rice. \n\nThe sushi rice was pretty old. It was gummy and just didn't taste right. \nI felt very Gordon Ramsay ish after the first bite. I started ripping apart the dragon roll looking for something good. The fish was ok. Nothing special but nothing terrible. However I'd like to harp on the rice again. It was bad. I think had I ordered sashimi I'd have been fine. \n\nThe fried rice wasn't too different from what you would get a \""Panda...insert name\"" in a mall. It was greasy with very little seafood and what appeared to be frozen vegetables. \n\nI really should have just had drinks and waited for a place to open up. Oh well, I can say I was here.

Considreing the above, classify the following: Visiting Las Vegas but meeting up with a group of 15 friends (used to be a local)  we wanted a place to catch up and watch the Blackhawks...  Pizza Rock delivered, no reservations and on a Saturday night we were able to nestle around the bar (they had a table 20 minutes later but no need we found our sitting/standing situation made for an intimate yet fun atmosphere).  The noise level was perfect, great music playing but you could sing to a song but hear your pals.  Great cocktail menu and lots of different beers with attendees who look tough (I mean the place is called Pizza ROCK) with great customer service skills and able to keep up with our group and the bar.  The aps and pizzas were a treat!  we ordered a few aps and a few pizzas, all good!!!  I strongly recommend meeting up here with friends and start your night out!
