| - I really WANT to like Triple 7. It's the kid of place that is pretty cool to hang out with co-workers or take a time out from the action of Fremont Street. The atmosphere is always good, service is usually pretty good - though some of the ladies are better than others (I've never had a male server there).
It's mere blocks from where I work, so it tends to be someplace we fall back on, but in the past few months, I haven't had great experience when branching out on the menu. Nearly everyone has a favorite food and doesn't eat much else. We like the salads, pizza, grilled chicken, sushi and most of the appetizers.
We keep going back because it's close, the drinks (at the Casino bar next to the buffet) are cheap and the service is pretty good. They don't fret when 8 people come in all of a sudden and want a table. If the food was better, they'd probably get 4 stars, but as it is, they get 2.
So... based on my experience - Do's and Don'ts
Do:
Stop at the Casino bar before coming in - the drinks are cheaper (.99 Margaritas, $1.25 beer)
Try the sushi - it's probably my favorite thing on the menu. I've tried a variety of it and while the selection isn't huge, it is good.
Have a salad or something else that you know the kitchen has to make. Much of the food is frozen, but the fresh things are good.
Don't:
Eat the burgers - they are frozen, premade patties that never taste good.
Make it complicated - the kitchen doesn't take change well
Try to get split checks - just come with cash if you're in a group.
