  • This was our first visit since The Flame closed and we were quite disappointed. The food is not bad at all, and the $10.95 Prime Dinner was great as was the Yellow Pike, but the place is now nothing more than a diner that was at one time a lovely white table cloth restaurant with a wonderful atmosphere and feel. Not any more. The staff was good and I felt sorry for them because they had to walk so far to serve some of the tables, it seemed poorly planned. The cashier seemed to squabble a lot with her colleguess that was a distraction and once she shoved a chair away from a nice lady trying to clean a table, but I could see they were experiencing a lot of pressure from just the way the cheap skate set the place up as it was so far just to wait on the customers. What a sad thing to see a beautiful restaurant turned into such a cheap red and white and black tile joint. I must say the staff and bus people were top of the line and very, very courteous and it was nice to see some of the familiar faces from the old place. I hope the staff makes out, but this place is just a feeder place dumped on the good people who patronize the El Cortez with their money. Certainly it says a lot about what the owners think of their customers, which in my opinion is not much. My wife and I won't be going back and will instead make two trips to Binion's Steak House now, instead of the one we used to and the one at what was once the Flame. No more Flame. So sad. And really, what for? To serve breakfast and lunch all they needed to do was cover the pretty white table clothes with new red ones and set up two steam tables and two waitress stations and they could so very, very easily have covered breakfast and lunch for everyone. But, no, in their cheap minds they figured the white table cloth Flame needed to be done away with and we now see what we have, a not so attractive diner like down at the corner at three o/clock in the moring. Sadly, also, the wonderful piano player, Ray, is not there either, he's off to the side of the lobby next to an old beat up antique car. Is this the way downtown is going? Geez, I certainly hope not. Lets hope these rich but cheap owners come to their senses and go out and hire a consultant next time before they stand up and just demolish a classy, tasteful and lovely established place like the Flame. What a mess.
