Case: It felt like I was coming back home to HGV Flamingo even though I had only stayed there once before.  We were warmly greeted at the front desk when checking in and asked what room preference we wanted.  They offered a wheelchair accessible room which we didn't need so we decided on a 1 bedroom on the 3rd floor.  I like how the elevators require swiping the room card for extra security when going upstairs.  On the way to the room, we could see the High Roller.\n\nThe room was clean and nice as I remembered the first time.  Home sweet home, even though it was for 4 nights.  It had the full kitchen which was convenient with leftovers and drinks (toaster, blender, and coffee maker).  The jacuzzi is a nice feature and we used it a few times.  I also like the 2 sink areas which is good when both of us wanted to get ready in the mornings.\n\nI don't know if it's just bad luck, but they were shutting the water off again just like last time! But this time it was for 5 hours from midnight to 5AM so not an inconvenience as we were sleeping! \n\nI was really impressed with the service of one of the front desk agents.  I think her name was Gloria but she offered to help me when I was having an issue sending a print job to the printer from my phone.  She told me to email it to her and she could print it.  I did but she didn't get it but called our room about 10 minutes after to let me know.  I appreciated her calling me.  I was able to print from my laptop and all was good.  That is nice to have a printer and they give you directions how to print.  Easy and free! \n\nThe one annoying thing is the Welcome desk left a message to get our welcome package.  There was a coupon for 10% off at restaurants and shops close by in Flamingo and Linq Promenade.  I was asked if I wanted to go for a HGV presentation and get a free $100 gift certificate after.  I said we would think about it and after this, we received daily calls and messages asking us to pick up our welcome package.  Obviously, they don't record if you have picked it up but only if you haven't booked a presentation.  We ignored the messages and didn't go to a presentation.  We may have if we had time but no big deal.  It's a sales pitch for them to up sell to HGV members.  \n\nCan't wait to go back 'home' and enjoy a great vacation at HGV!

Case: not a fan... \n\ni have been there twice. the first visit was about 4 years ago and i thought it was over priced for basic grub. the second time was this evening and i stand behind how i felt 4 years ago...\n\ni will say that the place has a great charm about it. it is beautifully furnished, decorated and elegantly lit. the food does not live up to the beauty of the restaurant. \n\nyou have an over priced salmon sauteed in butter, capers, and salt. the first couple of bites are delicious, but then the butter starts to settle in and that's it... \n\nmy grandma gets the stuffed shrimp dish and absolutely loves it. they also offer steaks and lobster.\n\nif i were ever to go back, i would stick with the appetizers (crab cake, lobster bisque, and fried asparagus) \n\nas for the dessert, that's where to 2 stars come to play. i absolutely LOVE their souffle. you have your choice of chocolate, vanilla, or both flavors combined. \n\nother than dessert, you can get a better tasting meal at kona grill or cheesecake factory for a quarter of the price.

Really I'd give this place negative stars if I could. While out for a walk to enjoy spring's final arrival here in da 'burgh we stopped in for an afternoon snack. Being between the lunch and dinner rush there were only a few other diners. While I know they aren't fully staffed at 3:30 in the afternoon I still could find no excuse for the slow service.  This is Lawrenceville after all and you should expect a fair amount of foot traffic on a pretty day.  Obviously this wasn't taken into consideration when putting together the staff schedule. It was either that or our waitress was just really bad. \n\nWe ordered the goat cheese bruschetta, the artisan cheese platter and 1 diet coke. First of all, that ain't goat cheese. At least not any goat cheese I've ever tasted. However given how much balsamic vinegar it was floating in my taste buds could have been confused.  Hint to the chef - buy a quality balsamic and then us it judiciously. This stuff tasted like the cheapest bottle of balsamic you can find at Shop ans Save.  \n\nThe artisanal cheese plate was simply a joke. The first thing I noticed was the decorative strawberry that was obviously way, way past it's fresh date.  Another hint to the chef, if a strawberry is mushy and not the right color don't put it on my plate. I won't miss the decoration but I'll be dang sure to notice the spoiled berry sitting right in front of me.  I could maybe get past that if the cheese had been decent. There was supposed to be 3 cheeses and granted there were 3 small piles of cheeses plus a few slices of pepperoni. And yet more of that cheap tasting balsamic vinegar.  I know one of these cheeses was a smoked gouda but no guess on the other 2 piles.  The waitress never bothered to say what they were and I suspect it was the same cheese just cut in different shapes. I sure couldn't distinguish any difference in taste.  Artisanal this was not. I suspect it was a small serving from one of those big cheese  and meat trays they sell at any grocery store. \n\nAll told our little afternoon snack cost $30 and it wasn't just underwhelming it bordered on inedible. Given all the truly wonderful restaurants in Lawrenceville I see absolutely no reason to waste your time or money on this place. We live in the neighborhood and  therefore dine often in the neighborhood. However I can promise you we will never cross Matteo's' threshold again.
