Case: Buffet of Buffets Stop #2 - Monday 2pm (7/4/11).\n\nDespite the low ratings from others, I actually had a decent dining experience while eating at Lago Buffet.  It is quite difficult to find and yes, the selections are somewhat limited.  However, it is one of the BETTER buffets among Harrah's Buffet of Buffets in terms of QUALITY.\n\nThe line was long due to the long weekend, but the good is that they served Dinner Menu All Day long.  Once seated, our waiter took our drink orders and surprisingly, even their soft drinks (Orange Juice, in this matter) taste better than Spice Market Buffets, I wonder why.\n\nFood wise, selections are limited, few breads, few salad toppings/dressing, Chilled Shrimp, Crab legs, Prime Rib and Ham, Sushi Roll, BBQ Chicken..etc.  However, the desserts occupied most part of the buffet.  Its extensive, carefully made, and delicious. \n\nI highly recommend this buffet for part of the Buffet of Buffet journey. Its perfect for lunch/afternoon tea or sweet lovers.

Case: I can't speak on the more expensive rooms, but if you're a standard/deluxe room kinda person like me, you will not appreciate the nasty, dilapidated look and feel of this place. I cancelled a booking with Circus Circus Manor Lodge because I thought this would be the better deal on my budget. I still don't know if I made the right choice out of the 2 but one thing's for sure, I'm never coming back here again. Fremont St Experience or not. What an effing waste of my Citi ThankYou Points SMH

Case: Sip was a really sweet spot and I think I was able to try all aspects of it. I started with just getting an espresso and taking in the cool vibe of the place. It's got both indoor an outdoor seating although it was definitely too hot to be out there. They have table, bar, and couch seating. \n\nThe espresso was good but as the day went on I realized they offer flights of beer. So I decided to try three of them. When I was talking to the guy at the bar, though, he really didn't know much about them. So I just tried 3 random ones and wasn't disappointed.\n\nAfter the beers, I felt like I needed some food, so I got one of Sip's homemade soft-pretzel. It was amazing. It comes with either mustard or cheese and the mustard was great. It was the perfect snack with either coffee or beer.\n\nI can see how sip can easily transition from place to work into a place to drink. This is a great little local spot for either of your caffeine or alcohol fixes.

Case: This was by far the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant in my entire life. I wish I could say I am exaggerating, but this really topped every bad experience I've ever had in the past. The entire experience was bad, from beginning to end. We came in for a Thanksgiving meal, and the hour we endured ruined the entire holiday.\n\nThe service here was beyond terrible. We were 1 of 3 tables being served, so it wasn't busy at all - but we were treated like they had a full house and a line of people waiting out the door. \n\nIt all began when we weren't greeted. The woman hurriedly walked up to us and looked at us as if we came in to ask a question. I said \""two please,\"" and she replied \""two what?\"" I repeated myself \""Two, for here, please.\"" And then the fun began....\n\nIt took us about 10 minutes to even be acknowledged by the waiter/owner. When we asked for a coke and diet coke, he angrily took our teacups away and returned with our sodas about 10 minutes later. I'm not sure what we did to tick him off, but he sure was upset that we came in.\n\nWhen we inquired about the price of crab, he told us \""Ummmm, ummmmmmmmm, $45.00. Some are bigger some are smaller,\"" and very quickly walked away, said something to the lady working there and walked in the back. Finally he came back and took our order. We ordered in Chinese, he confirmed it in English.\n\nThe food certainly didn't take long to arrive - so much so that the paper wrapped chicken was still partially raw in the center, and the peppered beef was uncooked halfway through. The dishes themselves were presentable, but very, very small and pricey for a typical Chinese joint. We never complained about the raw food. The owner added an additional dish about 5 minutes after we began to eat. He became very upset with us when we told them we didn't order it and asked him to take it back. We weren't rude about the mistake with the additional dish, but he quickly got an attitude with us and began to argue with us about the dish and wanted us to take responsibility for it. \n\nHe refused to serve us the for remainder of the meal and had the other lady working there give us our check. We certainly won't be returning, and I hope that anyone else who braves this establishment has a better experience than we did.

Considreing the above, classify the following: I've gone to Culver's twice on my lunch hour since writing my last review. \n\nI have to say my second and third experience was not as good as the first. While the food is still easily the best chain fast food out there, the service leaves much to be desired. \n\nBoth times I sat waiting 40 minutes for my food while confused staff members walked around aimlessly with people's orders trying to figure out what belonged with who. \n\nUnlike the other Culver's locations I have been to, the staff at this location are not very friendly. They act overly friendly as if they have been told it is part of their job. But it comes off as insincere and even a bit patronizing. (Is there anything worse than being patronized by a snot-nosed teenage fast food worker?)\n\nIf you want to try out a Culver's, I recommend avoiding this one and going to the one on Peoria or  the one on Deer Valley.
