| - Ok, I'm about to sound like a big-time snob here, but I think the existence of this place is bringing the Venetian down. I consider the Venetian to be one of the elite hotels in Vegas. There obviously are much cheaper hotel options in Vegas, so when I pay their unnecessarily high rates to stay at the Venetian, it probably means I'm trying to avoid the Circus Circus crowd.
We came here Sunday morning because there didn't seem to be any standout breakfast options at the Venetian, and we wanted to get to the pool area as quickly as possible. I noticed this place served breakfast and even though it didn't appear to be their specialty, I thought "Well, it's the Venetian. They must hold Enzo to some kind of standard, right? "
Wrong.
I ordered a cheese omelet, along with a sausage link that could have been mistaken for a dog turd, except cold. It came with "Italian toast" which was just a thick slice of bread, also served cold. Not too good. I ended up ordering a slice of cheese pizza to go, which at least turned out to be edible.
Meanwhile, I haven't even had my coffee yet and while waiting to pay, there's a lady holding up the line for 5 minutes because she can't get over that a slice of pizza costs $4.00. "I aint payin four freakin dollars for one slice of freakin pizza!!" Are you crazy??" Uggghhh. Then get the fuck out of the line, dummy!
The entire food court was a fucking zoo of hungover frat boys, gang-bangers, and lowest common denominator riff-raff. They should do live broadcasts of the Jerry Springer show there.
I'm not saying the Venetian needs to be like the Wynn by not including any reasonably priced food in the entire hotel, but they can and should step it up a notch if they want to be able to continue justify their room rates. I would have gladly paid a few more bucks to eat some quality breakfast food and be surrounded by people with a tiny bit more class. This place should go. They' should honestly just tear that entire food court down and build a new restaurant there. Half the fucking people that wrote reviews for this place apparently ate breakfast there. How about an actual breakfast place?
