Text - I was not very excited about this place. The bartenders seemed to be very quick and the drinks were very good (well poured). The crowd was rather meh...I am not sure if it is because this place is new in Scottsdale but everybody was trying to be very cool in their own corners, not much intermingling going on. And yes it was full of Scottsdale's finest botoxed, boob-jobbed, mini-dressed cougars, as well as the 'cool' old men and of course the 50,000-dollar-millionaires strutting their stuff. And the dress code is no worse than your typical Scottsdale nightclub; their website extremely overstates their expectations from what I saw. \nMy biggest complaint was that the dance floor and I love to dance! What became the dance area was right in the middle of the main walking area towards the bathroom. The DJ booth is cool but, there isn't exactly an established dance floor so it is right in the middle between some tables and in the walkway; poor planning if you ask me. The decor is alright; it was supposedly a bank before (hence the name The Mint)...It is almost over decorated if there is such a thing. But, I did really like some of the unique art on the walls! We came here early in the evening on a Saturday with a group of gals, so the line was not too bad, but when we left the place was a madhouse outside and there was no apparent exit route. \nI doubt I will be back here; this is not exactly my scene. Maybe after the hype of this place simmers a bit, it may be more fun.

Text - It took a couple recommendations to get me to stop. Tucked in a strip mall, it's easy to overlook. However, I have to say the chicken taco plate rivals any of my fave hole in the wall Mexican places. The interior is a blend of repurposed Pick Up Stix chairs and a giant photo menu of breakfast, lunch and dinner options. The prices are super affordable, and the service was pleasant. I was in a rush and opted for takeout. They forgot my side of guac, but the flavor of the marinated chicken more than made up for it. I intend to swing in for breakfast and definitely for my next taco fix.

Text - Yikes! You obviously get what you paid for. This was the cheapest rate for Labor Day weekend. I stayed in their standard room with a few girlfriends. Nothing special, just your typical hotel room with the usually amenities. Our TV did not work, and the shower would barely get hot. Not the nicest looking hotel, and it's always busy in the casino area. Picking up the car and luggage takes forever! Treasure Island is towards the end of the strip, so if you're trying to go to the other hotels, you have to take taxi especially in the summer when it's blazing hot!!

Text - I've never attended this box, nor would I ever. And maybe it's a bit unfair to judge the entire gym off of my experience with one coach, but I am about to be in Vegas for week long conference and was looking to drop into a box while traveling. Crossfit Las Vegas had been the first result in my search so I browsed the website to find more information about what to do when visiting. As stated, they ask that you complete an online waiver, as well as create an account to register for the classes. The information they obtained was the general name, number etc. as well as which coach you'd like to train with which of course I have no idea as I've never been. A little while later, I had received a voice mail from Joe telling me that he saw that I had registered online and was interested in getting started with Crossfit Las Vegas. Had then returned his call and got his voice mail in return, yet let him know that I would only be visiting and would love to hear more information about what was needed to drop in as a visitor. A few hours pass and I had missed a call from Joe yet again (this was during the day while I was at work), and proceeded to immediately call him back. When he picked up the phone I said something along the lines of Hey this is Brandy, I had inquired about coming to CFLV while in town, and he said oooh yeah, I didn't mean to call you the second time, I dialed the wrong number..... (what I took from that, sorry, was never going to call once you said you weren't signing up for a membership). Afterwards, it was almost like pulling teeth to get the information I had initially wanted, and could tell he thought he had better things to do with his time.\n\nMaybe it was an off day for him? maybe they don't like visitors? Either way, in my experience, Crossfit encompasses so many things. It's a business but it's also a community, and I'd rather not waste my time or money being somewhere that doesn't make you feel wanted.

Text - Uh... wow.  If I ever decide to go Martha Stewart beserk and upholster furniture or make my own drapes, I would come here.\n\nMeanwhile this place was a suggestion from a flooring store.  I swung by to purchase a linoleum remnant (sold out back) to put under our new puppy's pen.

Classify the following: Surprisingly good restaurant hidden in the courtyard of an office building. They serve classic cafe fare for breakfast and lunch - eggs, sandwiches, soups, salads, and such. The food is very affordable, with most meals below $7, and a good value for the money. The owners are very friendly and talkative, and the restaurant is usually uncrowded.  For guests staying at the Hilton, it's a two minute walk across the parking lot. Well worth the walk.
