| - Wish I could give a review on the food and/or establishment but, unfortunately, we left before we ordered anything. After standing, for a few minutes, by a sign that said "please wait for host to be seated" we were barked at from about 15 feet away by a waitress/hostess?? Who immediately made us feel stupid for standing by said sign and pointed to a bunch of hightop tables and said that you just seat yourself. So at this point she walked us to a high top table that was literally feet from both the bathrooms and the kitchen. We are from out of town and we're looking for the "Margaritaville" experience which this was not matching. So we asked if we could be moved to a table in the, at most, half filled dining area. With a somewhat disgruntled look on her face the hostess pointed us back to the direction where we were initially waiting and said to go see the host and they would seat us. So after wandering around and finally seeing the host signs and arrows intermingled with the rest of the restaurant decor we found our way to the host which immediately got on her intercom and started asking, I believe, the same lady(?) that we just left, what hightops she had available. At this point I interjected and explained that we wanted to sit in the dining area at a table and not in the seat yourself bar area. I'll admit, at this point, we were fairly frustrated and it continued as 3+ people sat 5 feet away talking to each other confused like this was an unattainable request. So after a minute of this ANOTHER lady guided us towards a booth to which when I approached and saw that the table was permanently attached to the ground there was no way I was going to fit as I am 6'4" tall and over 300 pounds. So as I expressed this they immediately went back to the intercom communication as my wife and I stood they're embarrassed while other patrons looked at us and the spectacle that was taking place. It was at this point where we politely told them never mind we weren't going to stay for dinner. It was unfortunate. We have eaten at other Margaritaville locations such as CityWalk location at Universal in Orlando and loved the food and the gigantic nachos and the Caribbean style music and atmosphere. Definitely did not have the same experience at this Las Vegas location in the flamingo casino. Needless to say we will not be going back. Two thumbs down!
