Example: Do yourself a favor and go to one of the other Mexican restaurants in Vegas if you want more than a margarita and chips & salsa.  \n\nAs many other reviewers commented, if you go, it can be nice to sit in the fake \""outside\"" by the canal.  And my meal started in a pleasant enough fashion, with the previously-mentioned good margarita and chips and salsa.\n\nBut everything fell apart when my entree came out.  Chicken enchiladas are pretty difficult to screw up, but they somehow found a way to do so.  This was the most bland Mexican food I ever tasted in my life.  Diner meatloaf in southern Indiana is more interesting.  The black beans tasted like water.  I'm not joking.  Water.  The \""cilantro rice\"" tasted like it just came out of the boil-in-a-bag.  The \""queso fresco\"" on top of the enchiladas certainly didn't taste like any kind of real cheese.  And the enchiladas themselves were skimpy on the chicken and heavy on the lettuce (a clear cost-saving measure).  Oh, and yes, the chicken also didn't even taste like anything. \n\nAnd of course, if you just want the 'rita, save yourself having to tip your sever and get your drink in the food court location of this restaurant that's steps away from the location by the \""canal\"".

Example: Great food for a good price. Shrimp scampi pasta was delicious!

Example: This used to be the best German food in town. I have seen a gradual decline in the food over the past several years. The gravies have changed and the Max's Goulash (one of my favorite dishes) has a different sauce (strangely dessert sweet) and change in the protein. The sides are still great, but the food used to be so much better.
Class: tendency


Example: I went for lunch with high expectations, and was bitterly disappointed.   I ordered the \""choose two,\"" including the pastrami reuben sandwich and the beer cheese soup.   A brew-pub has to have great beer-cheese soup, right?  WRONG!!!!  The soup was like a creamy caraway broth with some green onion garnish.  No taste of cheese or beer, just gross.  The Pastrami Reuben, described as served on Cranberry Nut bread, looked interesting on the menu.  However, what I received was essentially a large cranberry nut scone (about 4\"" tall) sliced in half with three small pieces of pastrami, a few shreds of sauerkraut, and invisible swiss cheese.  I normally do not send things back in a restaurant, but this showing was so horrible, I sent it back.  I tried the $13 American Kobe burger instead.  Eh.  It was an average - but by no means worth $13 - burger (think akin to the pre-made patties you find at Sam's Club) and, once again, the bread-to-meat ratio was WAY off.   Anyway, $40 later, we walked out very disappointed.  I can think of several places in town I could go and spend much less for a much higher quality experience.

Example: This place definitely deserves 5 stars.  I love how they sterilize all the equipment.  You don't have to wonder if you're going to catch something.  Everyone is super friendly.  This was one of the best Mani-Pedi's I've ever had.  Ben gives a heavenly foot/leg massage.  I would definitely come back next time I'm in Vegas.   I highly recommend them.

Example: After feasting with a g.f. at PF Chang's for dinner, down the street, she enthusiastically declared she wanted to check out Leone Caf\u00e9 (I wish she would've told me that before I drank 3 iced teas! But I was willing to risk heart palpitations & a sleepless nite.). We got there just before 9p & there was pretty impressive occupancy. While there were patrons inside, the obvious draw was the outdoor seating. & that was precisely OUR plan! In retrospect, I wish I would've gotten the name of the girl who helped us order because she deserved a shout-out. My g.f. got the same iced vanilla latte she would order anywhere while I asked some questions about familiar items. Our order taker patiently & sincerely answered my questions & gave me input. She talked me into trying (what I believe is) their signature drink: a latte (iced, in my case) with cinnamon & honey that she assured me was neither too cinnamon'y nor too honey'y (& told me if I didn't like it, she'd personally buy me a new drink). We then picked a table outside & waited for our drinks. That were delivered to us. In real glasses. By our order taker so she could ensure satisfaction. My latte had great flavor, I'd definitely order it again; however, it really isn't sweet so I'll ask for a tad vanilla. My g.f.'s vanilla latte (which I'm typically not a fan of) was very delicious. The vanilla actually tasted vanilla'y, not like high fructose corn syrup or chemically. & the latte was robust enough to handle that vanilla. I'm no coffee snob but I know this much: we got 5-star service, the outdoor seating was lovely (minus the wretched 'singing' coming from the stage nearby), the drinks were good & the people-watching was great!

Classify the following: All-American excess at its finest! For $50 you get 24 magical hours of access to all seven Caesars property buffets. I'd been wanting to try this for some time, but didn't trust myself and my uncontrollable appetite... but my brother came to town and bought me a pass, so how could I say no?!\n\nI strategized this as much as possible: since there is no way, no how that I can ever be out and about in time for breakfast, we decided to do lunch at noon, followed by 4:30 supper and 8:30 dinner, followed by 11am brunch the following day (the buffet pass is good for 24hours from the time of purchase). \n\nThe consensus on Yelp! is that Rio, Planet Hollywood and Paris had the best buffets, so we made those a priority. Started out with lunch at the Rio's Carnival World Buffet, which is huge and has the best variety out of all of them. After 3 plates, we went hiking in Red Rock to work up an appetite for our 4:30 dinner at Planet Hollywood's Spice Market Buffet. This buffet was smaller than the Rio's, but pretty much the same quality of food... with the added bonus of a Middle Eastern station, which I LOVED! Based on this station alone, Planet Hollywood was my favorite buffet.\n\nAfter that, I had to go to work at Caesars Palace. On my break, I stopped into the Caesars buffet [NOTE: this was before they remodeled the buffet -- see footnote] and was sorely disappointed -- it was small, with the same wilted-looking stuff they serve to the employees down in the hotel dining room!! The desserts, which supposedly they are known for, weren't even all that. The only cool thing here is they have a huge fruit bin full of kiwis, pears, apples, bananas and whole miniature pineapples...so if you're into fruit, this buffet wouldn't be a total wast of time.\n\nMeanwhile, while I was at work my brother went and checked out the Flamingo and Harrahs, neither of which was very impressive, according to him (especially not the Flamingo). \n\nThe following morning we rolled out of bed and waddled back down to the Paris, to try one last buffet before our wristbands expired at noon. The Le Village Buffet was actually pretty good, with a good variety of foodie-food like Brie-and-bacon mac & cheese and made-to-order crepes. Plus the ambience is awesomely kitsch: like you're inside a Thomas Kinkade painting, with food spilling out of all these little fake chateaux.  \n\nFinal Verdict: worth it, if only for the obscene fun of it all. You probably won't be able to eat $50 worth of food, but it's fun to try!\n\nFOOTNOTE: the new Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars is WAY better than the old one...but if you want it included with the 24-hour wristband, you have to pay a $15 surcharge. Lame!
