This review is specifically for the Sports Bar at the Mirage, just outside the sportsbook.
So my wife and I had just walked in from the heat (9pm) and she wanted a drink before bedtime. We plop down and I see our waitress talking with other customers before coming over to us. The bar isn't too busy at this time. Her name is Maryan and the first thing you notice is her incredible mane. She has this voluminous head of dark black hair that is quite striking. She is also wearing the standard referee uniform.
We ordered our drinks and when she returned we start talking to her and she has this wonderful and engaging personality. Before we know it, she is telling us about her Italian heritage (mine is as well), her grandfather and his bakery and the way she was raised in an Italian mafioso-type family in New York. I'm basically mesmerized by her story and childhood experiences. It's like listening to a story about the Sopranos.
We finished our drinks and before departing she gives my wife a hug and a smile.
Now this is the way to treat customers, like they are family.
Maryan, thank you for a wonderful visit! Next time we get to Vegas we are coming by to see you. :) Best of luck to you!!
