| - Worst waiter ever.
This place was on my maybe list for my Vegas trip, only because they serve paella. It turned out to be convenient, so we went. It was 3:30 in the afternoon, and mostly empty in there.
I ordered the mixed paella as soon as the waiter from hell came to our table, as we were going to see Le Reve that night.
That waiter NEVER came back to see if we wanted drinks or anything else from the menu. I had to flag his sorry ass down to order a beer. They ran out of the one I wanted to try, and he said there was one not on the menu, he hesitated because it's "strong." It was not. He must be used to drinking piss water. But it wasn't that. He saw an Asian woman and applied his ignorant stereotypes.
That dip shit appeared to provide service to the few other occupied tables around us, but not us.
When the paella arrived, I took a picture. After that, there was a very marked difference in that waiter's attitude. All of a sudden, he became friendly. Well what do you know about that.
He never took the menus from our table. And some other guy came to take the other two place settings from the four top we sat, right in the middle of our meal.
A waitress, she was Asian, who had started her shift as we began our meal, came over right away and removed the menus.
The flavors of the paella were good. There was no crust to speak of, though. Also, one of the handful of mussels in it had a broken shell. So. The kitchen sees this broken shell on a shellfish, and decides to just send it out as is. Wth. You're not supposed to do that, especially not for a $50 dish.
What a joke of a restaurant. Except for that waitress, the only person in there who knew what she was doing. The hostess was great too.
