| - Meh, a friend and I came to this restaurant that's located in the Westgate/former Las Vegas Hilton at around 8 on a Thursday night for dinner. We were hungry for sushi, and hanging on the wall next to the entrance to Silk Road, there's a full sushi menu. Perfect!
We went to the hostess station and stood there waiting and talking for a few minutes before someone finally stopped by to ask if we wanted to be seated, and then waited a few more minutes before being seated (there was no line and we could see a number of open tables inside the place, not sure why the wait?).
We were seated, our drink orders were taken and we were given menus. One problem: no sushi?! My buddy went back out to check and sure enough, there was a sushi menu at the entrance. When our server returned with our drinks we asked if they had a sushi menu, and she said no, that was a separate restaurant within this same general space that contains this noodle bar, a Benihana and a sushi place. OK? We'd already ordered drinks and were able to find a few dishes we liked on Silk Road's menu so we decided to stay.
We ordered an app and I ordered a wagyu beef dish for my main course. While the food was good, I must say that the service was absolutely dreadful all night. It took forever for our server to take our food orders, our appetizer was delivered at the same time as our main courses, when we wanted a second round of beverages we had to wait for a few minutes before we could flag down our server, then several minutes later we had to ask someone else to get our dinks as it was obvious that our server had forgotten about us. When it was time to get our bill and pay, again, it took forever.
IMO, this place is good, not great or outstanding, and the service on this night was nonexistent.
