Text - I had heard a lot about their food and decided to check it out one night after purchasing a Groupon. This review is strictly for the food. It was not good. The hummus was okay, and our main plate seemed to be microwaved. \n\nThe bar ambiance seemed cool though. So if you are looking for a bar atmosphere, I'd probably rate this 3.5 stars. For dinner, not that great.

Text - Because of the disgusting front desk here, my wife and I must move on after years of patronage. We won't EVER be back. \n\nIn my previous review, I wrote about the dismal, understaffed piece of crap \""welcome\"" one always receives when checking into this relic from the early days of Vegas sitting at the northern end of the Strip. I even received a sincere reply on yelp from the owner! But his words were nothing but empty fluff when, on our recent trip, we were so insulted, offended and disgusted at our treatment that we walked out on their clueless asses and into the amazing, welcoming arms of the Excalibur front desk staff.\n\nOn Tuesday July 29th, our flights to Florida to visit my mom all got screwed up due to weather so we decided to hunker down overnight in Vegas and figure out a remedy on the following day. Our \""go to\"" place has always been the Riviera, because it's cheap and easy to drive to on Paradise, although there is nothing much to love about it anymore as I said in my previous review.\n\nMy wife easily booked us a room at the Riv using the internet on her cell phone, and it appeared there was a lot of availability. We taxied over and walked in around 7:30 pm.\n\nAs usual, there was a long, barely moving line and only 2 or 3 people behind the front desk at any given time. Also as usual, the 2 or 3 people were constantly leaving their stations and disappearing behind the door to their rear for long periods of time.\n\nAs usual the 3 check-in kiosks (which print room keys) were unused with nobody pointing them out to the exasperated guests.\n\nMy wife and I knew about them so we checked in and went up to our room, completely exhausted and spent, and immediately heard what sounded like 6 drunken idiots in the next room, screaming, banging and completely disturbing the peace in our room.\n\nAs usual, when we called the front desk nobody picked up after 150 rings. As usual, when we dragged our exhausted carcasses back down, the line had barely moved and there was still almost no sign of anyone doing anything behind the front desk.\n\nSo, seeing as how we were starving, we decided to go out and eat at one of our favorite Thai restaurants and then come back and change rooms, on the chance that the line would be shorter.\n\nWhen we got back, we waited the line out and were eventually helped by a snarky, slimy blonde-guy with an ingratiating smile, who wouldn't know the meaning of hospitality if it shot up his hindquarters on a rocket-propelled popsicle stick. He had to take each one of our concerns behind the aforementioned door, and discuss them with some supervisorial no-sayer, who was unsympathetic to all of them. We were informed that there weren't any rooms they could move us to (my wife immediately proved he was lying by finding tons of them on her cell phone) and that \""noise complaints\"" weren't a legitimate reason to change rooms, but that we could call Security as often as we liked (and the slimy asswipe wrote down the # for Security for us) until things quieted down. I told him that wasn't my style and that we needed to talk to his Supervisor.\n\nThe Supervisor was a youngish guy in a suit who confirmed that there were no rooms he could move us to, and that noise complaints didn't cut it for a reason to move. We told him we were leaving and to credit our room charges back to our credit card. \n\nHe said no!!! He said that we had checked in a few hours earlier and that it was too late for a refund, but that it was our remarkable luck that he suddenly DID have other rooms available. We told him that we hadn't used the room at all, that we would contest the charges on our credit card and that we were leaving right then.\n\nHe looked deep in thought for a moment and then said if we would wait, he would physically walk up to the room and look at it to make sure we hadn't disturbed anything and if that was the case, he'd refund our money after all. So we stood there for another 20 minutes. He said the room looked fine and did refund our credit card.\n\nWe taxied over to the Excalibur where it looked like 50 smiling, amazing people were staffing the front desk! We told our guy our story and he immediately upgraded us to an amazing remodeled room with a hot tub and lavished us with good vibes, hospitality, sympathy and friendliness. In a word, EVERYTHING lacking at the hellhole we had just left, forever.

Text - Checked this place out for a Thursday lunch thanks to the great yelp reviews and interesting menu.  Head's up, if you get there before 11:30am you may be the 1st person to beat the lunch crowd.  The placed filled up by the time I left at 12:05.\n\nFirst off, I would go here again just for the salsa.  It was fresh and sweet, yet deeply spicy.  The sweet of the salsa would coat your tongue just before the spice overwhelms it.  So good!\n\nI ordered the Carne Asada spicy.  It came with rice, lentils and fried plantains.  \n\nThe lentils were similar to pinto beans, but added a new dimension to the dish.  I was not a fan of the plantains.  They were room temperature and extremely bland.  They made the dish look very appealing though.  The meat was very difficult to cut, but well cooked and the spicy sauce was very good.  A different, yet refreshing take on typical carne asada plates.  It was extremely hot and spicy - just the way I love it!  I was sweating bullets by the time I left.\n\nOnly downfall was the service wasn't great until he dropped off the check.  That was a bummer after all the positive reviews about Mi Cocina Mi Pais' friendly service.  \n\nI could hear the couple behind me talk about how \""everything here is good.\""  I'll be back for more soon.

Text - For the most part, FatBurger does an ok job with their food and drinks. In fact they are pretty decent about making sure that everything you get is on par with many of the other locations both in NV and Cali. \n\nFor some reason this location just misses the point! Now, I understand it is in a high volume area, with heavy foot traffic and etc. Catering to tourist who probably will not come back, but regardless of who comes into eat, Consistency & Quality is key!  \n\nMeat-overcooked\nBun-A little stale\nProduce-Not very fresh-BK & Mr. Jack-had better. \nExtra items?-Actually paid extra for something I didn't get! I know stupid me! \nOverpriced food, drinks, and etc. \n\nGo to \""In-n-Out\"" a few blocks away, if your really dying for a egg in your burger, go up the street to Fireside, I know they'll do it right! \n\nCheers.

Text - This was my first time eating at Big Sur  I was very disappointed.  The food was not good  the portions were ok.  The staff had a give a F*\\/%k attitude.  If you want a great oyster bar. Go to Stations Properties. Especially Palace Station Oyster Bar. Maybe the chef and staff from Big Sur Oyster Bar should to Station Casinos oyster bar to get so training.

Text - LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!  Open 24 hours.  Great diner food.  But the reason I keep going back: THE PAAAAANCAKES!  Melted butter ladled on top, crispy edges... the best of my life!  I've never been a huge pancake eater, but now I have to go back at least 2 times a month for the pancakes.

Text - This is a favorite of mine - I go here at least once a month.  Don't get intimidated by the huge menu - if you are at a loss just ask the waiter - 'do you have something like....' and say what you like and chances are you will get it and love it.  The make your own shrimp wraps here are a must.  I always get the seafood soup, they bring with it a platter of greens so you can put in everything to taste (including a whole bowl of sliced jalepeno!)  I am not sure what the seafood soup is called on the menu - i just describe it and they bring it out.  Fantastic spot!
