Nasty, terrible and disgusting come to mind as I walked in this place with a seat yourself sign. Even worse they told me with kids I could not sit in the main dining area and I must sit in a narrow hall way that was truly awful. It was also smokey and loud in here. We immediately left and went to the Steak House at Circus Circus that provides incredible service, food and atmosphere. If you want a quality place to dine and have kids avoid Big Dog's Cafe, I guess the name should have been a clue.
