Case: I took my wife to dinner based on reviews.  The staff was very nice and the decor very pleasant.  Unfortunately, the meals were just this side of awful.  The ravioli tasted very bland, pasty and store bought.  Half of the dish was boiling hot and the other half Luke warm.  My wife's squid ink seafood pasta was totally overcooked.  The seafood was rubbery and tough.  Both dishes were dry of sauce which did not help.  A very disappointing first and last visit.  I wouldn't recommend It.

Case: I had a coupon for $17.99 so decided it was worth a try!  I was told there was 1 car in front of me.  I said that i was on lunch for an hour and he said no problem   So I sat and waited.  And waited.  40 min later they still hadnt taken my car in.  The man behind the desk was on the phone for the last 20 min do I couldn't ask.  Finally someone else walks behind the desk and he hangs up the phone.  And then e gets up and gives my keys to a serviceman. So I ha r been sitting here for 40 min and you didnt even give my keys in?  It's now been over an hour and my car is still up on the lift. I can see them actually working on it now.  Took a little over an hour.  I paid by money and walked outside to get the car.  I had to ask if everything was ok with the car - usually they come and tell you that you need x & y done to you car.  The guy mumbled its fine and walked away. \n\nWouldn't recommend this place if you want a quick oil change!

Case: I've been to Vegas a few times, but this was the first time I went to XS Nightclub. I was a bit surprised that it was in Encore because I have been to Surrender before. Just the thought of having two pretty well known nightclubs in the same hotel puts into perspective how ballin' this hotel owner must be.\n\nWe came here for a friend's birthday and I really expected a lot of trouble getting in, but it surprisingly went pretty smooth! Had no problems at all, walked in, paid our admission, and enjoyed the rest of the night.\n\nThe venue was great! It was very spacious and well ventilated. The music was good too; nothing that really grabbed my attention, but definitely that house-y/top 40 dance music that everyone is going for these days. There's a huge pool and the bars are pretty accessible. The dance floor is a bit tight, but nothing you wouldn't expect from a packed Vegas nightclub.\n\nThe most important part for me were the numerous places you can just sit back and relax. When you go with a group full of girls that just want to dance the whole night away, the thing that you really need most out of a nightclub are drinks and seats.

Case: I am pretty much done trying to eat at this restaurant. The last THREE times I've come to Phoenix, they've been closed, including today. No information on their website, just a sign on the door as I'm standing in the ghetto, starving. I really love their food, but am frustrated that they have such terrible hours.

Case: ...So glad I stumbled on this on Yelp.  I needed a fix for Andean/Ecuadorean/Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken, and Chicken Latino delivered.  I'm sure the rest of the menu is good, but I can't get past the plain old 1/4 or 1/2 roasted chicken: perfectly spiced and falling-off-the-bone-tender.  Top it off with yellow rice, black beans, and a bottle of Inca Kola, and I'm in heaven.  If they did naranjilla juice and ceviche, too, I'd camp out for a weekend and pretend I went to Ecuador.

Case: I love to go there for thai salmon and japanese tuna tartare. Fish is fresh and presentation is amazing.\n\nI was disappointed with their wine menu, since they don't offer a lot of choices and also not a lot of private importation.

Classify the following: I was on a recent trip to Vegas with friends from all over the West Coast and we culminated our weekend with dinner at Ferraro's.  The restaurant is cozy, they have an extensive wine list, and despite the \""dressed up\"" atmosphere, the vibe is relaxed.  The food was great!  Simple Italian preparation with tons of flavor.  I had the Veal - the meat was juicy and tender, and the sauce was deliciously tangy.  I ordered the Grilled Asparagus as a side, which was perfectly cooked.  Everyone in our table enjoyed their meals as I heard a lot of yum-yum noises throughout dinner.  Paolo took care of us and was very helpful with wine suggestions (the Chianti he recommended went beautifully with my dish).  At the end of our meal, Paolo surprised us with complimentary dessert!  We each had a tiramisu and canoli - light yet luscious and tasty!  \n\nThis next part of my review is all about customer service.  Aside from being charming and attentive, Paolo went above and beyond his job description.  He called us two cabs (there were 10 of us) to take us to the Luxor after dinner.  One came and turns out, the second one never arrived.  When our friends finally met us later, they told us that Paolo ended up driving them to the Luxor!\n\nFerraro's is definitely a must-visit every time we are in Vegas!
