I cannot pass up the chance to try a Mexican restaurant so Chayo was obviously on my radar from the moment I checked in at the Linq Hotel & Casino.
I came in for dinner on a Tuesday evening and it was surprisingly busy, the hostess told me there would be a 35 minute wait for a table or I could seat myself at the bar. I was dining alone and went with this option, I still had to wait 5 minutes for a seat because they were all taken but it didn't bother me.
I was a little annoyed about one of the staff members, a blonde bartender with tattoos, who wouldn't serve me as she said she was too busy and I would need to go stand and order from her coworker on the other side of the bar from where I was standing. Not only this but my entire dining experience was interrupted by her complaining to her coworkers non stop about one of the bar backs- her customer service definitely needs some improvement. I digress...
When I finally managed to get served my bartender was awesome! He made me a delicious and strong Cucumber Margarita and took my order really quickly. I had the Guacamole and the Short Rib Enchiladas. Guac was really good and the enchiladas were decent too although I thought the sauce could have been a touch more flavourful. Overall I had a positive experience but might be hesitant to sit at the bar again, I don't want to hear about how much the staff don't like each other/are annoyed with each other while I'm trying to relax and have some delicious food and drinks.
Will definitely come back again the next time I am in Vegas.
