| - After having had a wonderful brunch/dinner here a few years back on his birthday, this year my husband decided he wanted to relive the experience. So we invited some local friends (all doctors) and went ... What a disappointment!! All 12 of us decided we would NEVER go there again! The food was bland and very average, some items quite bad ... I've seen better salad bars at The Sizzler! The only memorable item according to everyone at the table was the pea risotto! They had something named Kobe meatloaf - almost dog food! IF indeed they used Kobe beef, it was a waste of good meat! The crab legs were easy to eat and OK tasting ... The last time we were there they had a smoked breast of duck salad that was awesome - GONE! Lamb chops - available only Friday and Saturday I was told. Now - even the desserts were blah!
The worst part of the experience is that for some of us who wanted to smoke, we weren't ALLOWED to go in the casino. Four different people (including the manager) came to tell us that once we're in, we cannot exit and re-enter, as if we were trying to sneak in without paying. At some point they cleared the table including the champagne glasses that we paid extra for ($10/person) and they kept coming to ask if we needed anything else. By the way, the place was quite empty, no line to get in, they just had enough of us. We are locals, used to the treatment we get at Station Casinos such as Red Rock and Green Valley Ranch, or the M Resort, where the buffets are better and nobody keeps you hostage in the room if you want to go out for a smoke!!! I wonder if Steve Wynn is aware of how ridiculous the policies are in his hotel! The worst $85 spent on a mandatory tip for a group of our size for the lousiest service we've had in years! And the crappiest buffet food for $597.11 for 12!
Don't worry buffet managers, you won't have to deal with our kind EVER AGAIN! Not only that, but we will strongly discourage all our local friends, relatives and business associates from ever coming to your establishment again!
Not only that, but some of us wanted to gamble afterwards, but we were so turned off by the lousy treatment that we gave up and went to Red Rock!
