| - This isn't really new...It's a new concept, and they can't compete with the good steak houses all over Scottsdale. We used to go there when the hotel opened, and Nellie's was fabulous, unusual, but really creative menu. Now, they are competing with the big boys, and there is no competition. First, I want to say, we did buy a Groupon, unfortunately. I ordered the chicken, which was quite good...the side of scalloped potatoes was in a ramekin, and it was like eating paste, so I left it. I also ordered a Caesar salad, and that too was good. My husband ordered a hamburger, medium rare. And he told the cute server that it had to be medium rare, or it will go back. Sure enough, it was totally brown inside. Then he changed to a filet, and the manager came by to apologize, and that this will be right, It came our blood raw, and once again, he pleaded with my husband to make this right. We waited about 7 minutes and another one came out. The server and the manager watched, holding their breath, that it was going to be perfect....and it was just as rare as the first one. We blamed the manager for not being on top of his game, and not watching the Monday Nite chef. It's a attractive room, overlooking the golf course, and we had a great server, but lousy management and an average menu. They are attempting to appeal to everyone who walks in the door. They sure lost us. I would not recommend this New version of Nellie Cashman's Monday Club till they get new chefs and a new theme.
