Chin Chin is located in the New York New York Hotel and it's not by any means an authentic Chinese restaurant. They serve "Americanized" Chinese food which isn't a bad thing but when it comes with poor service, the experience just isn't that great.
We were lucky enough not to have to wait for a table. It was a Friday night and the restaurant wasn't that busy so that should have been my first inclination that maybe we should have dined elsewhere. The hostess was pretty friendly and welcoming. However, our server was a different story. She had an attitude and it was apparent that she hates her job. She kind of rushed us while ordering and basically threw something on there that we really didn't ask for. She took the liberty of ordering the sampler of appetizers for us. Even though we knew what she did, we didn't decline as we were unsure of what appetizers to get anyway.
The food was good, not great, and like I said, it is definitely not authentic Chinese food. Their fried rice was very similar to Panda Express (Chinese fast food chain), so really nothing special there. The Mongolian Beef was pretty tasty but they overloaded it with green onions. I'd say the Sweet and Sour Pork and the appetizer sampler were the winners of our meal. What I thought was strange was that they have sushi on the menu. I didn't care to give it a try because I don't go to Chinese restaurants for Japanese food. They have some pretty good cocktails but be prepared to spend some money on them. What do you expect; this is a restaurant in a hotel on the Strip. Would I dine here again? Probably not.
