| - Interesting experience.
Our server was the sweetest thing who dealt with the mix of people on an afternoon where developmentally disabled people (seriously, no joke) demanded a lot of attention.
The location is interesting. It is on the strip, yes, but it overlooks the driveway to the hotel which isn't the most appealing. The décor is stylish-simple, outdoorsy and clean.
The drinks were, not surprising, pricey but were tasty and did the job.
Two major knocks:
1. While our server was cool, the service, in general, sucked. The staff was much more interested in setting up a VIP section and neglected most of their customers at the time. I may not be VIP but I have money to spend and an appetite for an afternoon drink or three. Realize I am there! Many customers had to go get their server for help. Pathetic. There is also something about happy-hour etiquette that I expect. If you have deals going on, let me know. If you have deals going on, why are they relegated to the bar and not the patio? And, at least, inform your customers of the option. None of this happened. I learned about this after our experience and it only elevated my irritation with the inattentive service.
2. I am NOT penalizing the rumbar for this fact, but it happened so it is worth mentioning. An unfortunate stench choked the area around the rumbar in the late evening. We were going to stop for a drink but certainly would not considering the smell. It was either something from the street or from the hotel. Either the Mirage of the city of LV needed to get it together.
Overall, decent location, but a total wanna-be hot-spot. Like so many strip locations, the desire to be exclusive only destroys the potential for a welcoming and positive atmosphere.
