Case: Love this place! They do Korean BBQ right and the best BONUS about this place is you get to pick 3 sides to go with your meal. You can pick from cabbage kimchi, cucumber kimchi, glass noodles, broccoli, corn, bean sprouts, to name a few. Typical hawaiian bbq joints just give you rice and macaroni salad and I always crave the kimchi and pickles to go with it and this place gives you 3 options! I've had the kalbi, chicken bbq, and cold noodles. All very very good!

Case: Located in the Silverton Lodge Casino. This is very cool bar/lounge. It is right next to the huge fish tank on the main casino floor. A very cool feature is a jelly fish tank above the bar, that changes colors every few seconds, they also have very scantily clad waitresses, (that's for those of you not into a jelly fish tank,that changes colors every few seconds). I should also mention great food deals. If you happen to find yourself in the Silverton stop by the Mermaid Bar and have a drink or three. Live it up you are in Las Vegas for cryin' out loud!

Case: I was so disappointed with my Monsoon visit. While prices seemed fair I felt the food was lacking. I called in a to-go order that was ready quickly. No complaints there.\n\nWe sampled the fresh rolls. It must have been a bad day for their shrimp order because these did not live up to their namesake. They were huge and to my dismay actually tasted kinda rotten. The peanut sauce paled in comparison to the sauce served at Doan's.\n\nAlso sampled was the Tom Yum soup. It had large chunks of tough lemongrass and no subtle flavors or really any flavors.\n\nWe enjoyed the old stand by Kang Panang Curry: Panang curry in coconut cream with peas, carrots, bell peppers, chopped lime leaves and sweet basil.\n\nI wouldn't go back just for that though when other restaurants are the total package.

Case: Called in a take out order from Marnee several weeks ago and tried my standard Thai order of Spicy Basil Chicken Lunch Special.  First item of note was no brown rice.  I don't really dock restaurants for this but it's still worth mentioning.  When I arrived 10-15 minutes later I walked into a nearly empty restaurant.   I then was nicely asked to have a seat and waited 4-5 minutes for my meal.  It doesn't really bother me if I walk into a busy restaurant and have to wait a few extra minutes, but I didn't really understand where the holdup could have been in this instance.\n\nWhen I got back to the office I thought the meal looked pretty standard, which is not a bad thing since it's one of my favorite dishes.  The egg roll seemed soggier than I'm used to, probably because they had it in the same takeout container with the rest of the food.  It also seemed a little overcooked which with combined with the sogginess did not leave me satisfied.  The chicken basil was fine, but unspectacular, and the chicken itself was as I've described several times in other reviews that not quite finely ground and not quite nicely sliced, but instead it seemed like clumsily cut up pieces of chicken.  \n\nI did notice a lot of positive reviews mentioned late night dining which I could see being a big bonus.  Unfortunately I'm scared of the dark and have to be tucked in by 10pm.   If a Thai place was open near me at 2am I'd probably sleepwalk there though.  \n\nI think a year or two ago I would have probably still found this a 3 star meal because the flavors weren't awful, but with the amount of Thai restaurants I've tried since then, I've got to rank it against the others and thereby it only gets a 2 from me.

Classify the case below.
My wife and I paid $67 for the buffet, and like everything else at the Rio, it was deserted. There was an outbreak of the norovirus at the Rio this past weekend, and I assume people were worried that it came from the buffet, because it was dinner time and the place was way less than half full. \n\nThey have a velvet rope where they make you wait before being seated. There were three employees standing there staring at us behind the rope. One of them acknowledged us, asked us how we were doing, and then just stood there and stared. Not even ten feet away was a section with about ten tables for two, and only one of them was occupied. As visible as these tables were to us, they were even more visible to the three employees staring at us. Also visible were the buffet lines, with maybe five people total getting food.\n\nWe waited about ten minutes and finally it just grew absurd. We decided to ask for a refund. For $67, at a second-rate off-strip casino, it's ridiculous to make anyone wait. Especially not when the place is basically deserted.\n\nThe refund process was a hassle. The employees all took nasty tones with us, and the manager who gave us the refund didn't even apologize for the whole ordeal.\n\nAvoid this place like the plague. Actually, with the norovirus already present, maybe the plague is next.
