| - We came in excited about eating here. It's family style and we were starving after a long day of travel. My wife ordered for us; the seafood with angel hair and white sauce. It came out looking delicious! Lobster, mussels, clams, calamari, shrimp... all over cooked!
It started with the calamari tasting like a rubberband soaked in chum.
Next, I had to saw into the shrimp to cut it in half, to taste the crunch that should be reserved for a Snyder's pretzel, and the vein jamming between molars.
After my wife saw my face chewing like it's cud, she thought to try the lobster... she popped out a dry chewy piece of shredded meat and didn't bother with any more.
I shouldn't need to explain how awful the clams were after the rest of the mess, but I tried a mussel after all this. For the first time as an adult, I spit partially chewed food onto my plate.
The mussel had the consistency of a sand soaked wash cloth. I've had gritty seafood before, but someone must've rolled this thing in desert soil right before serving it. I haven't wanted for a piece of floss like this since $2 steak at Chuck o Rama.
To be fair; they did not make us pay for this atrocity, we did not eat it either, and my appetite was shot. (Our server did apologize several times and offer us something else)
I haven't felt this close to food poisoned in 20 years and over 100 visits to Vegas.
It got a second star because they cooked the angel hair perfectly. (Boiled in chum)
