| - In town for a congress and not a fan of Vegas my friends stole me away from the strip for dinner, a happy hour drink and some jazz. We got to The Lady Silvia and it reminded me of a done up Mega-version of LA's Library Bar.
The decor was fancy-cheeseball. Gaudy nuveau-riche furniture and chandeliers, trying so hard to look expensive but you can tell its cheap furniture and decor. Done up Vegas style.
The jazz band was great, it made the uppity, snooty bar feel a lot less pretentious, more mellow and relaxed.
One star because the service was despicable. Two washed up ex-sorority sisters working the bar (a blonde and a brunette with fake boobs and melting cakey make-up two shades too dark) were being really snooty about the free drinks promotion and refused to give me and my girl friend the free drinks that were being given out FREE to EVERYONE as a promotion. WTF!!! The funny thing is, that as a social experiment, we sent my friend's boyfriend to ask for the drink and they just gave it to him no problem and no questions asked. Really?
Thank God for Yelp! And for cathartic ONE star reviews post shitty experiences!
Suck it ladies!- (and I call them ladies cause I don't want to use the "B" word, though I was tempted, with the immature treatment and terrible customer service received, after I had bought three drinks AND tipped)! Wish I could have gotten my tip back!
Oh well, at least I can leave this tip on Yelp for future Vegas visitors looking for a possible bar. Avoid this one. It thinks itself high and mighty and it's really just sad how hard it tries!
