2 | Tonite I went the shrimp scrawny not their usual service very disappointed. I've gone to the Mesa location & OMG big juicy shrimp & snow crab this time I was very disappointed. The shrimp scrawny she'll was stuck to the shrimp. I felt like the hoodwinked me this was just bad. Not happy at all. |
4 | A must try when in Phoenix. So much better than Hot n Juicy spots. Cajun fries was delish & shrimp bag was awesome. Add corn in your seafood bag for extra taste. \n\nCareful when picking your spice level cuz even mild is spicy. As for the sauce opt for the trifecta choice which is Cajun, lemon pepper & garlic sauce. |
4 | I've been driving by the sign for this place for awhile now, to go to the grocery store nearby, and to my surprise I realized they were actually open last night. I walked in and was in heaven!!! Creole and BBQ!? You have the ultimate combination here! I only tried the brisket and 1lb of shrimp (trifecta started w/ the hot heat level and ended up ramping it up to 5, I'm a hot girl) and they were both really good! I plan to make this my new Sunday-funday and MNF spot! The drinks were good and so were their specials. I almost don't want to tell you how good everything was from the food to the drinks to the service because it's going to become super crowded, but then again, I do want them to stick around, so check them out, you won't be disappointed, there's something for everyone! |
3 | SLOW SERVERS!!!!! An hour to sit, order, eat and I still have not gotten my bill. \n\nBut Awesome BBQ! I ordered the gator nuggets, beef brisket smanich & crawfish. All was cooked just right. Thirty heat rating I'd off a little. I got medium & my lips are burning. I generally eat lots of spicy food so I am not a amateur by any means. Seafood comes in bags & you get a bib to wear. Seafood is very pricy..All by the pound. King crab was $24 a lb... way too expensive for me. |
4 | Love this place! The food was great. Customer service was superseded my expectations. I ordered the snow crab, sausage, corn on the Cobb, and red potatoes all of which was phenomenal. After demolishing my meal and drinking a Louisiana Sweet tea (made with deep eddy vodka) I am now ready for bed. I highly recommend this Angry Crab over Hot and juicy. Although hot and juicy has prime real estate on Mill ave, Angry crab has the better food, cocktails, and atmosphere. |
2 | Went to this place before Christmas and we ordered a couple lbs of shrimp and crawfish. We are a regular at their angry crab Mesa location and expect the same taste with the tri-fecta sauce, but it was disappointing to say the least, there wasn't enough garlic or any butter in the sauce, it tasted like water. It basically tasted like watered sauce steam shrimp. We asked the server how come it taste nothing like the taste we had at their Mesa location, they said maybe the cook kinda messed up the sauce recipe. I understand this location just opened and there are many things to work out but surely their trifecta (most popular) sauce need some serious work at this location. Friendly servers and the pacific rim sauce was good though. |
2 | This is decent but only slightly above a Milestone or Moxies restaurant. \n\nFood: \n1. Carbonara flat bread: meh... Reminded me nothing of a carbonara\n2. Beef cheek oranchini : good sauce, good taste little meat but it's was good\n3. Chicken supreme: moist and perfectly chard crust. My husband really enjoyed it\n4. Burger : both of my friends ordered this and loved it. They absolutely loved it\n5. \"Tenderloin steak\": ordered tenderloin for $29 plus the shrimp and fingering potatoes. Decent but they brought me the side trimming of a sirloin steak which isn't even on the menu and they didn't even adjust the price. I told the waitress I was very hungry and that I would eat it. However, I expect at least an apology and I would think it fair that you reduce the cost of my steak plate because it's a cut of steak your restaurant doesn't even offer!!! I feel offended that they would think so little of their customers. \n\nService: Unrefined and just phostess too timid to tell you the table is ready. \n\nWaitress: appeared confused and afraid of questions regarding the beer selection. \n\nAfter I told her about the steak she said she would let someone know but it was never addressed by her or anyone else. |
4 | So far so good. Their first day open today. The Chile Verde was very flavorful, beans were good! Green and red sauce were thick and tasty. The marinated carrots are a nice bonus. Can't wait to try more of the menu, I'll keep you posted.\n\n\nThis appears to be a whole new operation;\nThis is the former location of two other taco shops, Mi Casita and then the same Owner changed it to Pepe's taco shop, they don't appear to be apart of this new operation. |
5 | Love love love them! Have gone several times and have ordered different things. Everything is top notch. Especially the cheese enchiladas, wow they are good. We went last week to get them to take for lunches. Last time I got a cheese quesadilla, what a good deal it is, huge with lots of cheese. We will be there this week I am sure. |
2 | Good food but not open consistently. Opens early one day then not open early. How am I going to get my breakfast burrito. |
3 | This is a pretty good little Mexican food place. I've eaten here twice now.\n The first time I ordered a carne asada burrito. The meat was tender and flavorful, but seemed over salted. There was a LOT of it. Which is great since most places want to stuff t me burrito full of other ingredients and skimp on the meat. \n The second time I had a carnitas plate. The pork carnita was a tad dry, but full of flavor. The refried beans were over salted and the guacamole was a bit thin for my taste.\n The prices are right on! \n If they can stop over-salting the food, I'll give this place 4 stars. Until then, it's a solid 3 for me. |
3 | Decent for a quick bite. My usual at any burrito shop is Carne Asada so my review is purely on that. The burrito was very large and filling. The meat itself was pretty blah. Its not skirt or flap for sure. To their defense you hardly ever get skirt or flap anywhere. Maybe top round but I'm almost suspecting bottom round. It was pretty dry. Will grab a bite there when I don't have time for the others. Its was pretty good. Just not great. Gonna have to try something else on the menu next time. |
2 | The young lady working the front could use an attitude check. Not only did she snatch my card out of my hand to swipe it, she had the nastiest customer service I have seen. I was ordering my meal and she stopped in the middle of writing down my order and offered to help another patron. The other customer commented that she could finish my order (I was not taking long I swear!) and I managed to finish up. The floors were recently mopped with a stinky mop that left the floor sticky and I can't stop fuming over the young woman taking orders. \n\nThey charge $.50 to run your card as well. \n\nFood was good. That's the reason for the extra star. Our food was delicious.\n\nThe same girl taking orders came out next to our table and started sweeping the carpet. I asked her to please stop as we were in the middle of our meal and I didn't feel like having a seasoning of dust on my food. She sulked off to the back and began calling us sucias because we asked her to stop. I speak Spanish fluently and work as an interpreter so listening to her cowardly run to the back to talk about us was insulting. Rather than continue to listen and experience this behavior I left. I'm too tired to get into it with a little girl. |
1 | There are many good inexpensive places to to eat but this isn't one of them. I'll admit the food was slightly above average but if this place is going to make it the girl behind the counter needs to go elsewhere. She acts as if she could careless if helps you or not. She has a very arrogant attitude. We will not be returning, low quality and bad service. |
5 | Excellent service, very clean and best of all an awesome steak. Will be going back many times. Loved the mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese, great sauce and mushrooms. |
5 | I just discovered this new restaurant, and it far exceeded my expectations. Dash Grill serves chef-created gourmet food at reasonable prices in a casual atmosphere. For dinner I ordered the Seared Tuna Sandwich with a side of wine-marinated mushrooms and it was delicious. The tuna was seared to my specifications (medium-rare), served on a brioche bun, and then dinner was followed-up with a dessert of chocolate mousse. The mousse was beautifully served in an edible chocolate \"tea cup\" and was not too heavy or sweet--just the right consistency to be the perfect capstone to a tasty dinner. I will be back here regularly. The formula here is a winner in that you can get awesome gourmet food at affordable prices, since ordering happens deli-style at the front counter. Although the staff deliver the food to your table and are attentive to your needs, there are no waiters or waitresses, so there is no tipping expense or expensive wait-staff budgets. Very affordable, friendly and delicious! |
1 | Our order:\nSml Caesar Salad---$8\n\nMy daughter said \"it did not taste good.\" It was a Caesar Salad; so, the dressing or something else was off.\n\nRoot Beer---$3.50\n\nComes from a bottle. Pretty high mark up for a regular bottle of root beer. Really?\n\nHot Chocolate---$2 (x2)\n\nOkay hot chocolate that comes in a paper cup and plastic lid. Pretty expensive for instant hot chocolate.\n\n2 Seared Scallops & 4 Shrimp (they do not tell you how many you get) w/ mac & cheese and garlic mashed potatoes---$24\n\nShrimp had pretty good taste, and the scallops had a nice sear, but the main course was really skimpy. Both sides were very bland.\n\nSalmon with Crab (sides were Garlic Mash and Braised Mushrooms). \n\nFish was bland. Garlic Mash bland. The mushrooms were atrocious. \"Absolutely disgusting\"\n\n*they charged me $2 for a soda/tea I did not reviece. With horrible food like this, they need that $2 more than me.\n\nWe will never come back here again. \n\n\"We should have gone to 5 & Diner instead\" |
5 | Been here twice during last month. This restaurant has really good menu of middle east cuisines. Place can be crowdy most of the time. Food Really good. Tried shawarma and kebabs. Both were too good. The sauces were excellent |
4 | Small business at its best! $8 Kalua pork sandwich with side of crudit\u00e9s worth every penny. \"Fast casual,\" but has a nicer feel because of quality and taste of unprocessed food and extremely friendly service. Owner was on site interacting with customers. Wish I could rate 5 stars, but the setting doesn't match the other, impressive aspects of the experience. I enthusiastically recommend, however, and will return soon. |
4 | Gourmet food at affordable prices! We didn't know what to expect when we went there, but was pleasantly surprised by the food quality and service. Being a new restaurant they have some kinks to work out but as long as you have good food and service, can only get better!\n\nBetween the 3 of us we split between the new yorker, kalua pork, and tips and taters and they were all fantastic. |
5 | Had a great cheeseburger yesterday, topped with all the fixings. Delicious! Very clean dining area and Super friendly service. |
5 | Fantastic, fresh food at reasonable prices in a casual setting. Creative menu and food ~ loved the prime rib and fresh veggies. Creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e was outstanding as was chocolate mousse. Wonderful chef and incredibly personable staff with outstanding customer service. Truly a fun little place!! |
4 | Nice little shop with a nice selection. Lots of founders and everything was fair priced. Go see Allen and he will help you out. I will be back for sure. |
5 | We were very impressed with a smoke shop that actually smelled good...and they gave a generous donation to our worthy cause. What a great place and owners are awesome! |
5 | I am not a beer drinker but actually found one that i enjoy here. My husband loves this place and the great selection. Great, friendly owner! Def. will continue coming back! |
1 | La fl\u00e8che est rapide mais pas Le service , de plus si \u00e7a continue comme \u00e7a, elle va rater sa cible.une petite formation du personnel ne serait pas du luxe. Bien que la qualit\u00e9 des produits soit bonne, les servir froids ne donne pas envie de revenir. Bon, ce n'est qu'un bar qui se veut sp\u00e9cialiste du gibier, mais au prix demand\u00e9, un autre effort serait appr\u00e9ci\u00e9.Quant \u00e0 la carte des desserts, elle tient sur une ligne! Il nous faudrait un Robin des Bois pour atteindre la cible |
1 | Barmaids vraiment pas gracieuses, videur \u00e0 l'entr\u00e9e assez con et pr\u00e9tentieux. Le bar en lui meme est pas mal mais les gens et le personnel ne sont pas a la hauteur d'un bar du plateau. |
1 | I know it's the holidays but the store was understaffed. Obviously that's not the staff's fault, it's managements. It took me about 13 minutes to get through the line. We were backed up to the facial cleansers aisle. Also the price signs are so difficult to read I think if they made them more obvious you'd know the price you're paying for something. Because I unfortunately thought I was buying an $18 product when it was $50. Big difference due to the poor placement of the price. It was on the \"amazing concealer\" product. It was the applicator brush that was 18 and the 3 oz was 24 and the 5 oz was $48. I checked after I purchased it and waited in line forever I just accepted it. I won't be back. |
1 | Worst Ulta I've ever been to. The person working at benefits brow is racist! She knew I had an appointment and was waiting right by the counter for almost an hour, I did not get any greeting or even acknowledgement for my presence. She continued on chatting with the girl she had on the chair and taking her time. It was clear she did not want to serve me. I've been going to benefits brow for two years now and go every month. This is by far the worst I've experienced. It's like they opened up another branch and put the worst staff in there! I doubt this branch will make much money given their service level now |
1 | Worst service EVER! Watch out for Bianco she will snap at you every chance she gets. She needs someone to teach her the basics of customer service!! Run!! Stay away! Other staff was pleasant. |
1 | I saw a Dunkin Donuts worker carrying a tray of donuts. When she tilted the tray and lost a donut, she picked it up and put it back on the tray and took it to serve to people in the casino. Not only nasty but potentially a definite health risk! Never touch a donut there again. I gave one star because the app would not allow zero. |
5 | The sushi is great! Not expensive & good quality. My favorite rolles are the Vegas, Dragon, and the baked scallops :) |
2 | Update 11/15: I spoke with one of the employees at the Chandler location. Turns out this Mesa location is co-owner by the one that owns the Scottsdale one and the one that owns the Chandler one. They decided to go with the Scottsdale location's pricing and sushi style/sizes... which I hope changes. I personally believe one of the big reasons the Chandler location does so well and is always packed and has regulars is because the prices and portions cannot be beat. If this Teharu wants to stand out from the other sushi places locally, pricing would be the way to go.\n\n----\n\nI've been to all three Teharu locations. This one is the least appealing to me overall, by far. The only thing this location outdoes the other three on is atmosphere. \n\nLet me start off by saying I visit the other location in Chandler twice a week. It's close to my work, the portions are great, and it has the best pricing by far. I know many of the employees by name, and my coworker and I are treated well every visit.\n\nThat being said... This location pales in comparison when it comes to price and portion. The plates are often $.50 to $1 more expensive than the Chandler location, and the portions are almost half of what I would get as well. \n\nThe food was cold when it shouldn't have been... cold tempura shrimp rolls just aren't the same... have you had soggy tempura? It isn't very appetizing, to me anyways. \n\nThe sauces were even different, and not in a good way. The unagi sauce was the most disappointing. It tasted like they grabbed some soy sauce and tried to water it down with just a little eel sauce... too salty!\n\nPros: Closer to my house by about 20 miles, great atmosphere, good service (until there are more than five tables seated), and informative staff.\n\nCons: Smaller meals (so you have to eat more, and therefore spend more), higher prices (again, spending more), sauces are lacking, and food that isn't fresh enough.\n\nOverall, I won't go out of my way to go back. I spent the same amount of money as I would have going to a regular sushi bar that would have served fresh food and given me a free miso soup and salad. \n\nThat being said, I will give Teharu a second and third chance when it picks up business and gets its big kid wings, maybe things will change. |
4 | This place is good lots of room and tons of sushi options.. Price is grate aswell. Good place to go for a sushi fix. |
5 | Yummy, cheap, and clean! Love the revolving bar too! My husband and I end up going here almost every date night just because we love it so much. And we've tried other sushi places, they don't compare! |
5 | Always happy coming here and we do a few times a month lol it's a guilt free kinda lunch/dinner and so happy we now have one in mesa! :D |
3 | To preface this review: I am a sushi snob. It's ok. Decent service. Great for budget conscious/ college students because it's ok cheap sushi. Ok for first timers. I won't be inviting people to go with me and saying it's amazing place for sushi. I guess there are more in the valley. The one in chandler is packed all the time, I hear. This as my first to one. I was a little thrown off by the conveyor belt of food going by the tables. I thought what a great I idea for Din Sum! Wait I'm at a sushi place...huh? So I was pretty concerned about how long the sushi is sitting on the on the conveyor belt. I watched for a little and realized it's not long but no one can never be sure. I'm pretty sure I saw the same Vegas roll pass the whole entire time I was there. My voyeurism made me try a few plates. The rolls are jam packed with crab with thinly sliced fish on top. Awesome if you like crab, not awesome if you love fish. I wouldn't bother with any salmon, it was not good. It really made me think the thought, \" I really may get sick from this\". Tuna/Toro is decent and flavorful. The rolls are pretty generic and have nothing special about them. Choose wisely and selectively. Hint for parents: keep the kids on the end of the table opposite side of conveyor belt. We spent a few extra bucks from sneaky kid grabbing plates of cream puffs off the conveyor. |
5 | I've been a loyal customer of Teharu for years now, my boyfriend would always bring me to the one in Tempe and it was awesome. I live in east mesa, so it was always a question of if we were willing to go the distance. We were SO excited to find out there was one opening up right down the street from us. This one is even better than the Tempe location. Their rolls are fatter and I can taste a freshness difference. Don't let a revolving sushi bar scar you, this place is to die for. Not to mention the awesome prices. |
5 | Let's talk about sushi. Better yet, revolving sushi. Great for a bunch of friends or just a cute little date night right before the movies. Super inexpensive and you can leave that place with a belly full of yummy sushi for just under $10.00 bucks. I mean A LOT of sushi for $10.00. Go try it, they are great and friendly. |
4 | I love TEHARU! such a cool place and super super inexpensive. I love bringing new people there and trying different types of dishes. |
1 | If i could give this place negative stars I would. We have been going to Taharu for years at the Tempe location and never had issues. Apperantly this must be the red headed step child because the service is bad... Walked in when it was dead at 2 pm it's 314 pm and still don't have my order that I placed. I flagged down the server to have her tell me she doesn't know what happened to my order but if I want I can pull from the bar I could do so. The whole point of using the order form was because what I wanted wasn't on the bar. No refills on drinks even after asking, Horrible service. If I come back it will be the Tempe location since they don't leave you hanging for an hour and then loose your order. |
4 | I used to go to the Chandler location a lot but after a while I stopped going... the quality seemed to go don't at that location... but I was still excited to try this new location.\n\nFor some reason, everytime I go there, the place is empty... but that's not necessarily a bad thing (less wait time yassssss) \n\nLove the fact that I can try different types of rolls but not have to eat 8 pieces of it...and its really fun watching the sushi move a long the belt\n\nMy faves include the Vegas Roll, \"boobie roll\" not sure what it is called for real lol but it's the one with the red dot, And the Rainbow roll! Yummy!!\n\nYou can order more specialized stuff on the menu but may not be on the belt.\n\nFor dessert there's random cheesecakes and cream puffs that go around and other drinks as well ( I personalky focus onthe sushi)\n\nAnyways... Prices are pretty affordable from 1-2 dollars per plate... But it does add up!\n\nGo and try anyways! It's fun and yummy :) |
3 | This place is super cute, the staff is super friendly, but the food and drinks are super ok. I really want to like this place, I do, but the food is mediocre. I will admit though, everything is cheap and reasonably priced so if I wanted cheap and quick asian food I would go here again. The rice bowls are decently good, and the thai-styled burger was actually fairly delicious; however their thai tea was disappointing. The boba also tasted weird and mushy, not how other boba normally tastes. \n\nDon't knock this place until you try it though, this is just my opinion and the restaurant is still in its infancy :) I will definitely try this place again in the future to see if it improves! |
3 | This place has potential, and I hope they will do good in their business. I ordered a coconut soup, temple of fire (fried rice), Kimow (clear noodle), and a Thai tea. The coconut soup didn't taste too bad overall, however, it was over sweetened. It tasted like sweet coconut milk mixed with other staff.The temple of fire is way too spicy ( I love spicy food and I'm from Szechuan), but I couldn't handle the fried rice here. It gave me stomachache. The Kimow was average, a lot of noodles but minimum meat. The Thai tea was so sweet, I felt I was drinking syrups. The restaurant only has small round tables for two, Not convenient for group of three or more. It would be great if they allowed their customers to select spicy level (mild, median, hot, Thai hot etc.), otherwise it's too risky to order spicy dishes. I would get to go dishes from here, the actually dine/in portion is smaller other Thai restaurants' dishes anyway. |
4 | I believe the correct name for this restaurant is Suh Noi - The Little Thaiger. This is a small super casual Thai restaurant with a drive-thur window. The menu is small compared to other Thai places but they also serve some unique foods too. You order at the register and seat yourself. \n\nBased on what we had they are deserving of at least 4 stars as the food really was very good.\n\nIn both dishes we tried the meats were cooked nicely and the dishes actually had enough basil. \n\nI had the Holy Basil Chicken. The chicken was tender and this dish had enough basil to make it taste good. This dish ran much hotter than I was expecting and I almost couldn't eat it. I ordered it very hot. About 1/2 of other Thai places don't make very hot that hot and I'm usually left wanting more heat but NOT THIS TIME. I'm not the biggest fan of jalape\u00f1os in Thai Food but it's such a big deal to find a place that uses Holy Basil I got it anyway. \n\nMy husband had a similar dish the Wild Boar Grapao. This dish is made more the way I like. The meat was hand chopped in a similar but slightly different sauce with Thai Basil and Thai Chili's. The very hot in this dish was mild compared to the Holy Basil Chicken but was spicy. For $1.50 extra you have the option to have your dish Thai Style with a fried egg.\n\nVery good and above average for sure. |
1 | I stopped in for lunch to check out this new pizza place. Mark Rich's NY Pizza and Pasta used to be here. I recognized the girl at the register when I walked in, so I asked her if they just changed the name, but she said that Mark Rich's recipes transferred over when the new owners bought the business in this location. Mark Rich's NY Pizza and Pasta still currently operates another location, using the same recipes and ingredients, but has nothing at all to do with Giani's NY Pizza and Pasta.\n\nI ordered the lunch special for $5.95 which was 2 slices of cheese pizza and a drink. The pizza slices were a good size. I didn't care for the pizza though. They might be using the same recipe the previous owner used, but it doesn't mean it comes out the same and it just didn't for me. The pizza was somewhat burnt and had a stale taste to it like maybe it was from the day before. This is a real disappointment for me because I regularly shop in the shopping center Giani's is in and enjoyed stopping for pizza. Good thing \"Above the Crust\" is just around the corner though on Ann Rd so there still is a solid pizza joint in the neighborhood I can go to. |
1 | Terrible pizza. If I tossed it at the wall it just might have shattered it was so hard and stale. I asked the girl who helped me what happened to the pizza place that was here before and she rolled her eyes and said that they sold the business along with the recipes to them and even though it's new owners and a new name the pizza would taste the same. She made me feel like I was bothering her and came off very rude. I do feel the price at around $6 is fair for 2 slices of pizza and a drink but it needs to be edible. I couldn't make it through just 1 of the slices because it was so tough on my gums to eat. Maybe they should try some of their own recipes if they have any. With other solid pie joints nearby I'll pass on this place in the future. |
2 | This place was great when it was called Mark Rich's NY Pizza. The new place has gone way downhill. I used to love their pizza, but now it's way below average. I used to drive miles out of my way to eat here, but no more. It's just not the same. The staff changed and I guess they changed cooks. |
5 | Very nice place with a taste of island music playing in the background. Had the banana nut French toast with eggs and suasage which was very tasty. Our server was great and the food was brought in quickly. Very nice atmosphere and family friendly. |
5 | Tried Bite this morning with my wife. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Their menu offered a large variety of appealing choices- including vegetarian options- which made deciding what to order a little difficult. I decided to order the Caramel Apple Waffles which came out quickly with lovely presentation and tasted like the delicious love child of a Belgium waffle and a churro. \n\nWe will definitely be coming back and recommending Bite to our friends. |
2 | Ordered eggs Benedict. No hollandaise was made so that eliminated that choice \nOrdered simple scrambled eggs with diced ham and was excited to see they offer hash browns. Order came gross! Don't call these slimy potatoes hash browns. Ham was gristly \nThey have a five year old helping by buttering toast gross! \nAnd the banquette is not padded most uncomfortable. Will never go back |
4 | Have been seeing their \"coming soon\" ads in the neighborhood paper for awhile. So when a buddy of mine who lives near the strip happened to be in the area, I figured it was a good chance to try it out.\nWent there yesterday during lunchtime. The place was fairly empty, maybe people still don't realize that they're open.\nThey have a large menu, maybe too large, definitely something for everybody. At first I was excited to see they offer a Monte Cristo sandwich (an increasingly difficult item to find), however I didn't order it when I found out that they do not use thinly sliced ham, instead it contains thick cut ham:( My buddy ordered it, and he said it was good, but I couldn't pull the trigger. \nI chose the classic Las Vegas breakfast combo: eggs, bacon, potatoes & toast. Everything was good, however my fave thing were the hash browns. They're cut differently than any I've seen elsewhere, they're flat and wider than usual, almost like short pieces of fettucine.\nThe service was excellent. The owner greeted us when we walked in, our server was very attentive and knowledgeable, our drinks were refilled quickly when they got low. Overall, the place is good, and a welcome addition to the line up of eateries in the Spring Valley area. Good Luck. |
2 | Items Selected:\nBottomless Coffee\nBEER CAKES - Guinness beer batter with crispy smoked Applewood bacon pieces\nBITE'S ULTIMATE PANCAKES - Fresh egg surrounded by our buttermilk pancake batter filled with bacon and sausage pieces\nMONTE CRISTO FRENCH TOAST - Turkey, ham fried egg & Swiss cheese\nFUNFETTI PANCAKES - Cake batter with rainbow sprinkles and topped with yogurt (...or not, bro)\nCHOCOLATE MOCHA WAFFLE - Whipped cream and chocolate fudge\nMINT CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKE - Minty green pancake batter, loaded with chocolate chips and topped with whipped cream and chocolate fudge\nBANANA NUT FRENCH TOAST - Homemade banana nut bread dipped into our French toast egg batter, grilled and topped with sliced bananas\n\nReplacing the shuttered Sun City Caf\u00e9, Bite quickly garnered attention when I discovered it was less than ten minutes from home and giving the restaurant a few weeks to get its footing before paying a visit with three friends the simple conclusion is that either they still haven't figured it out, or perhaps that they never will.\n\nLocated in a strip mall, pretty standard for Las Vegas, Bite is the invention of Chef Andrey Ariza and having personally contacted the restaurant weeks prior to find the website and menu (and subsequently linking it to their urbanspoon, yelp, and foursquare accounts) the first tip-off regarding customer service occurred when their online question form went unanswered and finding similarly disinterested staff located in store suffice it to say that those who drink their coffee quickly should sit close enough to the back of the restaurant to fill their own - the bottomless cup of $2.85 brew admittedly good, though the temperature could have stood to be turned up a few degrees.\n\nPleasantly decorated for Christmas, with a small kitchen and at least three line cooks manning the fryers and grills, it was with football in the background that an order was placed and requesting the food in two rounds the items rolled out at a good pace - the mistaken substitution of pancakes for French Toast one flaw, while the 'funfetti' stack was served without yogurt as though no one would notice - a later excuse of \"we just replaced it with butter, \"sorry 'bout that bro\" apparently felt to be service-recovery enough.\n\nSpeaking to the quality of the food, much like the rest of Bite it was a bit of a mixed bag, the first round of savories honestly proving superior to the second set of sweets with the Monte Cristo fairly well constructed despite being unfried while the \"Ultimate\" was interesting if only for the runny eggs at the center, though this also contributed to a substantial degree of sogginess when taking into account the somewhat greasy sausage, the Beer Cakes surprisingly my favorite plate with light hoppiness and a crispy griddled layer overlying a fluffy center that paired nicely with smoky bacon.\n\nTransitioning to more childish delicacies after a bit of respite, and a couple of trips to the coffee machine as the restaurant began to fill, 09:10:11 on 12/13/14 arrived just after unordered banana pancakes and funfetti pancakes lacking the menu-promised yogurt arrived and returning the first while settling for flavors no different than average white bread in the other it was in the crispy chocolate waffle and a single $3 mint flapjack that we indulged, both decent but nothing to write home about, while the late arriving Banana Nut French Toast was admittedly quite good, a crispy topcoat overlying a pudding like center with plenty of bananas made all the better by a drizzle of warm maple syrup.\n\nStunningly unapologetic for serving items without the toppings promised on the menu and mostly underwhelming in their execution of plates that sound far more interesting than they taste one of my dining companions summed Bite up best when she said that it seemed they were trying to capitalize on the success of BabyStacks, but with four of them already populating a valley with plenty of competition from EggWorks, The Cracked Egg, Blueberry Hill, Hash House, and so many others that offer a better overall experience I'm not really sure Bite offers any good reason to go back. |
5 | The food is fresh and vibrant. The service is friendly and everything you want from a local breakfast/lunch spot.\n\nI had the ultimate club with fries. It was delicious. If you a haven't been you need to come by and try Bite.\n\nWe will be back. |
3 | Four of us met for breakfast so we could try several items on their menu. We ordered their beer cakes, funfetti pancakes, the Ultimate pancake, Monte Cristo French toast, chocolate mocha waffle, banana nut French toast, and one mint chocolate pancake to give the flavor a try.\n\nMy favorite of the group was the chocolate mocha waffle. Next I would put the Monte Cristo French toast and followed closely by the banana nut French toast. I tasted some of the other cakes, too, except the beer cakes. For the most part, they each had some sort of hook to make them different and appeal especially to the younger set.\n\nService was not good. Coffee was not refilled in a timely manner, the one stack of pancakes was not topped with the yogurt the menu promises, and we were brought a wrong pancakes instead of the French toast we ordered.\n\nMy hiking group met for breakfast when they were in their old location and the difference between there and the new spot was enormous. There are too many spots in the southwest/Summerlin areas from which to choose and while I grade it 3 stars, it was OK--just OK--not A-OK! |
5 | I was impressed with the unagi and the servers and chefs were very friendly. Will be coming back often. |
2 | We were so glad to see a sushi restaurant in downtown Las Vegas. The atmosphere was very pleasing. However, the service did not match. It took us about 15 minutes to receive our first dish (a few pieces of nigiri sushi). After receiving many dishes, such as the yellowtail yuzu ceviche and screaming orgasm, we thought to ourselves \"what was our favorite dish?\" and we couldn't think of it. This place has potential, but the server did not know much about the product she was selling. This place needs some help if it is going to survive. Le Thai will definitely be funding this to stay open for the next year (since it apparently is the same owners). |
5 | Welcome back Jimmy & Becky!!!\n\nAll restaurants have tough service when they first open so never fair to review based on this until at least a month in business...just my opinion. We sat at the sushi bar downstairs and it's just plain SIMPLE, Jimmy hasn't lost a step. Excellent sushi, terrific vibe and my wife and I are glad to have our Sunday afternoon sushi place back in business in a cool new location. All my Sushi $$$ coming ur way. Cheers and good luck... |
3 | Ok, so I'm going to try this place again....they just opened so I think they are working a lot of the kinks out. We sat at the sushi bar, and waited 30 minutes for 3 slices of salmon sashimi, and got 2 pieces of salmon sushi instead :/ which I ate, and then ordered salmon sashimi asian, which came another 15 minutes later haha....the china roll was good. It kept taking 15-20 minutes to get more beer, which we had to keep ordering from different people....which resulted in us getting charged for a couple more beers then we ordered and consumed :( that I gladly paid because I was just in a hurry at that point, and the server didn't understand what we were trying to communicate. Anyways I'll go back in a couple weeks and try again! The food was good and it had great ambience. Just need to get organized and work on guest service a little bit |
4 | If you're a sushi lover - This a is a refreshing new place you may want to visit while in the new revitalized community of downtown Fremont east.\n\n\nWe had made a reservation prior which I would strongly recommend if your planning a gathering of 4 or more.\n\nAs you walk in, the staff immediately welcomes you in Japanese and you get a sense of warmth with all the smiles from the chefs and staff.\n\nMy group were led upstairs to a very Art Deco asian inspired loft with a bar and the first thing I noticed was the place setting giving the atmosphere a polished dining experience.\n\nThe wait staff were friendly and efficient, shout out to Taylor, our waiter, he did a wonderful job of anticipating our needs.\n\nAfter drinks and starters, our meal arrived in a timely manner, there were some unexpected downfalls, not from the waiter but from the arrival of some of the dishes.\n\nThe beef Gyoza arrived but they seemed to be a little cold, one person in my party had some bones in her salmon, but we were more concerned for other patrons that we let him know so no one else would encounter what one of my dining members encountered.\n\nA slight mix up of yellow tail sushi - but quickly recovered, we still, overall enjoyed ourselves.\n\nThe prices are typical of what you would expect of a sushi place and the presentation of all the food we ordered, was visually appealing and tasty.\n\nI discovered they have a couple of private rooms that could host a nice group guests for a more seclusive and intimate experience. I also learned that there will Karaoke available for those rooms for a little entertainment.\n\nThe background music was fun and enjoyable and wasn't intolerable.\n\nThis is definitely a nice place to enjoy great Japanese cuisine before hitting the rest of downtown Fremont, I would suggest that if you love sushi, definitely hit this place up.\nAt the bar, you can sit if you're flying solo or if your a couple.\n\nThe experience overall is comforting and enjoyable, besides the couple of minor incidences, I think the rating I gave is fair.\n\nI will definitely recommend rhis place to others.\n\n:) |
4 | So excited to have a sushi spot downtown and it's so yummy! Bocho special roll was so tasty, definitely a favorite. The sauce is a garlic ponzu and it's a good size. One will fill you up for lunch. We also did a lunch box which was pretty good. The pickled cucumber was a good touch as well as the seasoning on the rice.\n\nThe service was great, everyone super friendly. \n\nWill definitely be coming back and taking friends and family. They don't have dessert yet so excited to see what they come up with! |
5 | Possibly the best sushi in vegas. Checked this place out for an early dinner with my big brother. Seating is really cool, tables and full bar upstairs with a sushi bar downstairs. We sat upstairs at a regular table. We ordered three rolls including the Las Vegas roll and spicy tuna. All of which were huge and so very delicious. \n\nThe wait staff was a bunch of very friendly and laid back (and actually totally cute) boys. They were attentive and totally on the ball the whole time. I will DEFINITELY be back! |
5 | Seconds, anyone? Just had dinner with a group of friends here last night, and everyone was happy with the service and the food. Again, everything was so fresh. I have to go back and sit at the sushi bar next time! |
5 | Excellent sushi. Great service and beverage selection. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I've been here twice and will continue to go, plus they just increased their hours and added a great happy hour. |
5 | I enjoyed going to Tokyo, and was heartbroken when they closed in commercial center. Luckily they reopened downtown! The food is still as delicious as ever, I love the decor, and the vibe here. Definitely not disappointed with this place. Service was good, our server was very attentive and made great suggestions. \nSo glad that there's a great sushi spot downtown! |
1 | This is worst hotel I have been in Las Vegas. Way overpriced for what it offer. Customer service is non existent. Ricardo who presented him self as the manager needs a training on customer service skills. Check in was a mess. Hidden charges. Rooms are nothing like it was advertised. I booked this hotel a month ago and after waiting 40 minutes to get checked in they gave me what it must be the worst room in the hotel. When I called to request a change the girl on the phone was very rude and lie to me saying there was nothing available. There were at least 50 people waiting to check in. So at least there were 50 rooms still available. Then Ricardo the manager say they will not make any room changes and I will have to keep my room or go somewhere else. Rooms are small and with poor terminations. This is a 2 star hotel at the most. Don't come here |
4 | For those who want to see how the new room looks like, here's a video tour of the newly renovated room I shot when I stayed there: www.youtube.com/watch?v=khJ5zY2F24k\n\nAs of October 30th 2014, the Quad has been renamed to The Linq Hotel and Casino. So anyone who book a room after October 30, will be staying in the newly renovated room. So, I had the opportunity of being the first guest to stay in the new room as you can see in the video.\n\nThe room is up to date with hip and modern decor. Reminds me of IKEA. The room has a walk-in shower, but no bathtub. There's also a small refrigerator instead of a mini-bar in the room. \n\nThe thing I didn't like is the low flow of water in the shower. I don't care if the hotel is trying to be green, it needs to boost its water pressure. Another thing, I didn't like is the speed of the internet. It was way too slow. My phone internet moves faster than the room internet.\n\nOther than that, I did have a great time staying at the hotel. |
1 | This hotel is everything wrong with Vegas. Long waits, terrible customer service, and unfulfilled promises await you.\n\nFrom check in you'll experience the unmanaged lines, long check in, and lies. We were told we could check in at noon if we were a total rewards member. When we came back at 2pm, we were told it was only IF rooms were available. As a side note, a friend checked in 7 hours later and received a note and t shirt saying they were the first guests in the room, meaning the room was available all day.\n\nWhen we game back to check in at 4 pm, we were told rooms wouldn't be available for another hour. We waited and returned at 5. After waiting in the check in line for 30 min we finally got our room. We then had to endure 20 min on hold with the bell desk waiting for our bags. Finally I went downstairs, through the stairs because only 3 working elevators serve the entire hotel, to go to the bell desk myself. After requesting my bags, I watched two people behind me in line get their bags bags first.\n\nAfter rushing to get ready, we went downstairs to get a cab to make a 7pm show. There were NO cabs available. The valet tried to sell us on their in house limo service for only $65 to get to NYNY. He assured us it would be the same price as a cab. Luckily a cab showed up and took us to NYNY for $11. \n\nOverall, if you can get a room for under $50, the linq isn't terrible. However, it is in no way a quality hotel and should be avoided if you have the choice. |
1 | THIS HOTEL IS A HORROR! I find it hard to believe that anyone who has ever stayed at a hotel before, (anywhere & any rating all the way from the Holiday Inn to the Four Seasons), would write a positive review for this spot.\n\nI have nothing but negative things to say...\nI will elaborate when I check out. But for the time being I will say that the worst part is that I paid & furthermore splurged on this, my vacation...something I haven't done in years. It also happened to be my bday & it was ruined by the unprofessisonal and imcompetance of the linq-i missed a bday dinner, a concert and worst of all-good times & memories...ultimately, all this was was money & time flushed down the drain. They didnt take accountability either & blammed hotels.com...i have photos/videos/& record from hotels.com as documentation to prove this to be true. \nThe one star I gave is for brooklyn bowl, otherwise if yelp allowed for it, i wouldn't give one at all.\n\nUPDATE:\nThe entire day I've called to request a blanket that every other room has on their bed. I spoke with someone more then 5x. Each time they either ignored or forgotten about my request OR are they are actually incompetant, which I'm starting to believe to be the reason.\n\nA pool is advertised, there is no pool. It is under construction. \n\nThe room service only operates from 7AM-1PM. \n\nElevators are for the most part broken & don't always run...best option is to use the stairs. \n\nMANAGMENT IS COMPLETELTY UNQUALIFIED TO OVERSEE A HOTEL & WITH THAT, A NEW HOTEL IN LAS VEGAS...ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR DESTINATION SPOTS IN THE WORLD. I FEEL LIKE THEY OWE ME $ FOR WASTING MY VACATION TIME, THEIR FALSE ADVERTISING, INABILITY TO ACCOMADATE & UNHOSPITALITY.\n\nDon't bother booking anything but a standard room because they ignore requests and will put u in a standard room, which I'm assuming is all they really have...\n\nHORRIBLE. DON'T LET THIS HOTEL STEAL YOUR MONEY. |
3 | We really liked playing here. It didn't seem as though the machines were as tight as they normally are for a casino on the strip. Right next store at the Flamingo they were tight as tight can be which is common for the strip so we were pleasantly surprised to see the Linq actually somewhat loose on a weekend. We would recommend playing here and we will probably go back. |
1 | One of the worst hotels that wasn't a 1-2 star I've been to in a bit. \n\nGood:the bars, sports books, and casino are all top of the line. \n\nBad: I had to check my bag until 4 pm because they didn't have any rooms. I was ok with that. When I came back to get my bag, the lady took my ticket and stood there for 7 minutes. She easily could've gotten the bag but kept calling back and no one was picking up. Finally someone went and got the bag. \n\nI was here for two nights. I get back at 4 pm to take a nap, and my room wasn't made. I call, they said they would fix it immediately. I go out, come back at 7:30 pm. Still wasn't made at all. \n\nI go down to talk to the manager. They initially say they will wave one days resort fee. I said hell no. They eventually waived both. \n\nJust know this is effectively a one star hotel in a great place.\n\nForgot to add. Only one working elevator. |
1 | I can't even give them 1 star as this place is horrible. First, they give us a handicapped room, but that wasn't the big problem. The problem is that this is the old Imperial Palace and the rooms aren't finished. So our room had garbage in it, the lights in the bathroom did not work, the shower water flowed throughout the bathroom, the sink was stuck, there was no black out shade. So we call the front desk, they tell us to come down and they will get us a different room. We pack our stuff go down to find out that they won't release the room and it's clear they have another but refuse to give it to us and send us back to the room. We were supposed to get another room the next day only to find out that all rooms on the 16th floor are not finished and do not have black out shades. They designate a new room give us the room number and tada we go to switch to find out they gave it to someone else and put us back on the crappy 16th floor. Plus, the elevator to the 16th floor wasn't working. That definitely was not acceptable. Finally, they put us on the 9th floor the evening before we check out. If that's not bad enough, our stay came with 2 tixs for the Linq High Roller and they told us we get $5 off. Had we not been paying attention we would have paid for something already included. We will never stay at this place again. |
1 | The worst experience of my life!! Had originally booked Friday and Saturday, but then decided to head out a day early and booked a separate night. We didn't get in till late on Thursday so I knew the king bed wasn't going to happen. But the double beds were Fulls not Queens and the room was tiny. The next morning we went down to get our other reservation with the king bed and it was a constant run around. We were told to come back in an hour. An hour later we called down and we were told it was ready, so we went down and were told there was nothing available. This happened 3 more times!! Finally at 4pm, check in time, we got in line and everyone was being told no rooms were available. Lots of people were very upset, we still went up to the lady that told us to come back at 4pm and finally they had it for us, but the lady was very rude about it. They didn't even apologize, not once. I will never return to this hotel. \n\nThere is more bad:\nExtremely important the door wasn't sound proof, you could see a gap under each door, and everything could be heard from the hallway, so sleeping wasn't easy. \nThere was construction on the pool the whole day Friday. \nElevators only 2 were working. \nParking structure is dirty and not safe. Lots of construction still going on. \nShower had no pressure. \nNo blackout curtains, light came in thru the sides. No clock in the room. \nSome ice machines weren't working, as well as vending machines. \nCellphone service was horrible in the building.\nHad the Do Not Disturb sign on the door, and housekeeping knocked two different times!! \n\nThe good:\nThere is a refrigerator in the room, but not that cold.\nBeds were new, since they had just opened the hotel.\nLocation, since its across the street from Caesars and the new promenade is very nice. |
1 | This is probably the worst hotel I've ever stayed at. If there were negative star reviews on Yelp I would click there for my rating. \n\nStayed here during the official opening this past weekend (10/31-11/2) for my friend's Bachelorette Party. My friend had 3 non-smoking rooms reserved in advance, and specifically requested that one room be located closest to elevators for me since I recently had foot surgery and it would be difficult for me to walk far to get to my room. \nWhen I checked in, I found out that my room may have well been in a completely different hotel since it was so far out of the way from the ONLY WORKING ELEVATORS in the building (yes, apparently the hotel was not as ready to open as they should have been). My room was in fact near a set of elevators...elevators that were not in service the entire weekend. \n\nWhen I asked to have my room moved closer to the main (Working) elevators, I was told that the hotel was full and no rooms were available, but to check with the front desk between 11am and 1pm the next day to request another room. I called the front desk at 11am and was told it was to early for them to tell if a room would be available and to check back at 2pm. I went to the front desk between 2:30 and 3pm and the lady at the desk told me that she would reserve a room for me but it wouldn't be available until after 4pm or 5. I watched her write a room number on a key card case and put it aside. I went to dinner and returned to the front desk at 6pm. \n\nThe woman at the front desk, Joana (different lady than before) had no idea what I was talking about, and said she didn't see any rooms listed under my name. She told me that the hotel was full and there weren't any rooms available. I told her of my many attempts to change rooms (due to THEIR mistake of putting my room next to non-working elevators), and she said she needed to speak with the manager. She left me waiting at the front desk for nearly 20 min (while I was standing in pain on my injured foot) only to return and tell me that she still couldn't put me in another room. \n\nAt this point I was extremely upset and requested to speak with a manager, whom I then had to repeat everything and now inform HIM of the situation. He rudely repeated what the woman said about no rooms being available. I (in a raised voice by this point) had to remind him of my disability (foot injury) and the fact that I had not even mentioned the loose screws and parts on the floor of my room, and that he would regret denying an injured/disabled person access to a room near a working elevator, especially since I am an Elite Yelper and also reviewer on many travel sites. FINALLY, he decided to move me in a new room. I am still extremely disappointed that I had to yell and get that upset for them to correct their initial mistake and move me to another room. \n\nWhen I finally reached my new room, it was still not close to the main elevators, but much closer than my previous room. Walking down the hall to my room, I noticed cigarette smoke but thought it was just in the air from being on peoples clothing...when I got settled, I soon noticed the smoke was seeping into the room thru the vents and under the doors. Apparently I was in a SMOKING room, even though I specifically told the woman who changed my room that I wanted a NON-smoking room. I am usually able to tolerate cigarette smoke but this was horrible and I had difficulty breathing and sleeping. The cigarette smoke throughout the lobby on the way to the hotel rooms is also ridiculously strong...you would think that if the hotel was renovating, one of the first things they would do is invest in a better filtration system.\n\nDuring our stay, we came across many things that shouldn't have been, simply because the hotel wasn't together. While the decor of the room was nice, clean and modern (fixtures & furniture), there were loose screws, bolts and random metal pieces around the floor of our room (as I mentioned earlier), the bathroom fan didn't work & there were no manuals, maps, menus or anything about the hotel or room service anywhere in the room, no clocks, double room beds were full not queen, hotel pool was still under construction, etc. There was a soda/ water vending machine on my floor next to the ice machine, and when I went to buy water (there isn't a gift shop or store in the hotel), the vending machine was not working. I ended up having to drink tap water. Also, when I called to request a late check out on Sunday, I was told that they were not granting late check-out that weekend since it was a soft opening weekend. \n\nSeriously, don't stay here. Stay anywhere else... |
1 | I'm a Las Vegas local, and I love staying at new hotels on the strip! But I also stay pretty often when I have guests in town. And if I can summarize the lengthy review below, I would say: SAVE YOURSELF. DO NOT STAY HERE.\n\nFirstly, when I made the reservation, I added my friend's name to the room so that she can check in when she arrived in town as I finished my work day. They did not let her check in. So instead, she had to leave her bags at bell hop and wander. **STRIKE ONE: INEXPERIENCED STAFF**. I called to complain and when she tried to check in again, they finally gave her a room key. When she got to her room, she was surprised to find that the front desk had given her a key to a room that was already occupied!! There were belongings of other people all over the room. And even though no one was there, this is bad! **STRIKE TWO: SECURITY BREECH**. \n\nWhen she finally changed her room and got her own, she requested that the room be next to mine (as I had reserved both rooms). They told her they will try to get it conjoined but can't make guarantees. Um hello, none of the rooms at this hotel even conjoin, so I have no idea what they were talking about.\n\nSecondly, the elevators at this hotel are horrendous. Apparently there is another set somewhere that is not yet operational, but every time we had to use the elevator to get to the rooms, it would be a horrendous wait. There were always about 20 people waiting to get on, and it seemed like only ONE elevator worked! This backfired because when we tried to check out on Sunday, it was a 30 minute wait to finally get down! What we ended up doing was we got on an elevator going UP. Then rode it all the way back down. During our decent, we stopped on every floor. And every floor, there were VERY unhappy people waiting to check out. **STRIKE THREE: HORRIBLE ELEVATORS - YOU WILL BE TRAPPED**\n\nThirdly, there was a resort fee of $20/night and there is no resort here! The beautiful pool on the hotel website is fake. The pool is not done yet. There is no wifi. And even though I did not check the fitness center, I would be surprised if that was done too! When we complained about the report fee, they were only willing to take off ONE night. **STRIKE FOUR: CHEATING FEES**. \n\nFourth, when we tried to hail a taxi, it was always a 5-10 minute wait. Does the staff actually call a taxi to come get you? I have no idea.. **STRIKE FIVE: TAXIS DON'T COME HERE**\n\nFifth, sometime during my stay, my key stopped working. Okay fine, not a big deal, but when the elevators are this bad it's an extra 40 minutes to do a simple key change! I was so annoyed. Also, their key doesn't go into the slot. You're supposed to just waive it at the door. I don't know about you, but I think these keys could be easily hacked. I didn't feel safe here. **STRIKE SIX: SAFETY CONCERNS (AGAIN)**. \n\nLater that day, as I was waiting in my room for my friends to meet me, security guards came up to the room and asked for identification. They had no reason to check on me except.. maybe when my key was deactivated, they had accidentally given the room to someone else, just like the issue my friend ran into. So they probably had to send security up to make sure the people in the room were actually supposed to be there. **STRIKE SEVEN: SECURITY CONCERNS**.\n\nAnd the nightmare is not yet over! The charges that are pending on the credit card have not yet finalized, so I have no idea if the hotel had overcharged for my rooms. If the pending charges go through, then they more than doubled the charges they were supposed to charge when I booked the room. Then we're going to have a real problem when I complain. **STRIKE EIGHT: CHEATING CHARGES (AGAIN)**\n\nActually, I think there were more issues with this hotel than I can possibly mention. Given that it's their opening weekend, maybe I should cut them some slack. But in reality, I had high expectations for this hotel. It's at a prime location, at the entrance of the new and popular Quad.. and it just failed.. miserably. The concerns I have are beyond just aesthetic appeal.. we have real inconveniences and real security issues here. I might stay one more time months from now to see how things progress.. but if they continue on this slope, I will NEVER stay here again. I will warn all my friends, all my family.. and just hope that new management takes over.\n\nMy fellow yelpers, please stay away! |
2 | Ok so first of all ... Let me start with this was my birthday weekend ... I was SO excited to get to stay at a brand new (renovated) hotel - the first in a clean, gorgeous room with a killer view! Well ... Ha! Let me start with our arrival, we were there for 4 days, 3 nights so we parked in self park, thinking that the entrance doors pretty much lead you into the Linq. 20 mins later, lugging so much crap, we find the actual lobby/ casino ... After going through at least 5 construction zones and up and down stair wells as the elevators were either under construction or broken. We find check in - hurray! Staff was AMAZING! Loved every one we came across! Up to our room we go ... So excited for my high roller view room ... Yewww! Wait. Is that a parking garage??? Um yup. That's my birthday weekend view. And it looked like a car almost flew threw it. Wrong room, wrong view. We went out, partied, came back and fell asleep. Comfy bed, slept great! Woke up and I don't think there was room service (bummer - I like breakfast in bed), at least we didn't have a menu so we left and enjoyed ourselves. The elevators were broken 75% of the time. The shower \"design\" (only half was covered with a glass wall) there was a bar for curtain but maybe that was just for looks i'm not sure but what I do know is that all the shower water ended up on the bathroom floor ... Not cool. No taxis but that wasn't a huge deal for us. High roller wheel was AMAZING. Our fridge was broken. Not good circulation/ ventilation in the room. They said no coolers were allowed in the room, we never experienced this issue in our past 15+ Vegas trips. Note again the fridge didn't work. Loved the location! The shopping plaza was awesome. This hotel has potential but it was very disappointing for such a special birthday weekend. 2 stars but that's MAINLY for the staff we came across and the high roller wheel happy hour ;) |
2 | The casino is fine. They did a decent job upgrading it from the Imperial Palace... well, I'm reviewing Linq and Quad as the same thing, because really they are. They have a great video poker bar inside with 100's of beers from around the world. If it wasn't for that, I'd probably never come here.\n\nTheir parking garage is a living hell. It's old and should have been torn down and rebuilt with the rest of IP. It took my friend and I like 20 minutes to get up the 6 floors due to difficult corners to turn at and lots of cars coming in and out. Then on the 6th floor, the parking garage just ends with no warning, and there's nowhere to turn around and go back down. Any cars queued behind you all need to back up to give you room to do a 17-point turn.\n\n100% the worst garage in Vegas, and I've pretty much been in them all. Told a security guard that while stuck in line. His response? \"I work here, I know it.\" How many accidents will we have to see before they fix this place? Shame on you, Caesars. |
1 | I checked in at 6:00 PM, not very late especially for Vegas. The person at the front desk they would have to try and find me a room. \"Try and find me a room\" I booked the room three weeks ago, don't find me a room, give me the room I booked! \n\nAfter 20 minutes they put me in a room with two fulls instead of a king, no big deal. However, my view was straight into a building next door with construction going on. I woke up to a guy standing on a latter right outside my window, hammering a wall!\n\nThe photos on their website make it look like a hip new spot that got a legit remodel. This is not the case. The remodel was done cheaply. The photos do not show you that there is no closet. There is also no coffee maker. I had to pay $14 for really slow wifi.\nThere was also a fire-alarm running out of batteries somewhere near-bye so I had to hear a chirp every ten minutes. |
3 | Although we did not stay at the Linq, we did spend a lot of time at the casino, especially in the Poker room. They have a Daily tournament for $40, first one starts at 11:30 am and then ever 3 hours I believe. It is a lot of fun and some good players with a well ran tournament. Sports book is an OK size just need to get more sitting, we were there for the Sunday ticket and could not find a place to sit. Ended up at one of the restaurants to watch the game. The new o'shea's is located there as well and it's a fun place to just relax with friends and enjoy the beer pong. |
5 | I stayed here the second weekend it was open as the LING Hotel. Yes, it is newly renovated. It just opened as the LINQ on 10/30 so if you are reading the reviews and they say the rooms are old, it's not the same place.\n\nThe room has a clean, IKEA kind of look to it. Younger feel and nicely decorated. The room has fridge, not common in Vegas, so that is a nice touch. We were on the second floor overlooking the pool which is under construction. No view but I'm not sitting in my room looking out the window anyway. I could have upgraded to a High Roller view but not worth it for me.\n\nThe check in went flawlessly. Elevators have been redone. They are not the same IP elevators, which I would have rather taken there stairs then go in the Imperial Palace elevators.\n\nFavorite part is the 3535 bar downstairs. Great bartenders. Great drinks and reasonable prices.\n\nRead between the lines on these reviews. Yes, it is under construction. Yes, the views are not the best. Location cannot be beat. I had excellent service. You are not paying for a suite at Caesars so don't expect it. But overall comfortable and very happy with my stay. Will stay here again! |
1 | If I could, this place would not get\nANY stars. We finally get to Vegas and the front desk lady kept telling us how we are the very few people to rent out the new hotel out of hundreds of rooms. So we asked if we can get an upgrade and she said no everything is full. Okay? Didn't you just say we are one of the few people to rent these new rooms during this week? Moving on, we get to the room and it's ridiculously small. It's renovated and looks new but as I was checking the restroom (I like to wipe down restrooms with antibacterial wipes due to my OCD) the toilet is stained no matter how many times you flush it. The Linq is supposed to be renovated but they can't clean toilets?! Plus, no complimentary lotions, no alarm clocks, no coffee maker.. Cover sheets are cheap. The list goes on. This is a hotel that I wish I never stayed at. \n\nAND, don't ever use their valet. We forgot some sunglasses in the car and when we got our car back it was gone. So yes, someone stole them. Yes I know not to leave any important items in the car.. But sometimes people do forget and it really sucks that you can't even trust their valet at a \"new\" hotel for a few minutes. Therefore, I wish I never stayed at the Linq. I really advise anyone not to stay here. The worst hotel I've stayed at in Vegas. |
2 | We arrived yesterday..... FALSE ADVERTISING....... Room was dirty, only 1 elevator working, no hand soap, no comps or upgrades, NO COFFEE in room, no coupons, they \"upgraded\" us to the high roller ferris wheel view.....well its a parking lot with a somewhat view of the the ferris wheel. Then they gave us an other room closer to the elevator, with \"no view\" ...but the view of was better. \nROOM SERVICE: ha it's a joke......its all from the restaurant upstairs but ONLY from 6am to 1 am so if you are out till 1:30 you are out of luck, and you are not allowed to order in ......but you can buy outside and bring it in. HUMMM? \nDO NOT RECOMMEND |
1 | Booked my room through their deal with the Rock n Roll marathon and got a great price. Room was decent, nothing special. \n\nIf you go make sure they are done with their construction, which they clearly aren't now. Casino and lobby are a mess. Construction work started right outside our window at 5 am. Nothing like getting some sleep.\n\nWhen we complained at check out, we were offered our resort fee of $16.80 back yet the couple in front of us was given $50 off their bill for the same complaint. Front desk staff wasn't very friendly. \n\nBottom line, won't be returning. |
1 | Talk about putting lipstick on a pig. They think a fresh coat of paint to make this event a new hotel that can compete with the others. Still The dump that it was before. They also don't let you bring an ice chest to your room which was a pain as we had to unpack our stuff and bring it up in a bag. Tons of construction still. Parking is also not convenient. I would go to any other hotel before this one. |
4 | Yes, I'm giving it 4stars. I was very hesitant on staying here with all the negative reviews, but I did. Let me first back up and say I only stayed here becaus I purchased a smart circle coupon deal from my job last year. I had read the reviews then ...and hoped that by he time I visit in 2014 the construction would be done. \nFast forward to July 2014, I signed up for the a Rock n Roll marathon and thought I check out the Quad ( was the name at the time of coupon purchase) checking reviews.....they still weren't the greatest. Loud construction, broken elevators, dirty rooms, theft....I mean after reading this who in their right mind would stay here?!? Me! \nSo I had given my sister the disclaimer and said it's just a room, to sleep, it's reasonable let's do it. I went in with an open mind....\n\nTo avoid any more headaches Valet park, check in was easy, elevators worked, never heard of any complaints of none working, room was clean. My wi-fi worked I had shampoos, conditioner & soap in a dispenser and They provided travel since Adequate room service. I just wished that there had been a clock, coffee pot and a Bible! |
2 | So... the casino half of this Hotel & Casino is great. (Relatively) cheap gambling, great bars, nice atmosphere. I'd come play here any time.\n\nBut the hotel half? Yikes. Recently \"remodeled,\" but clearly still inferior to just about everything around. The biggest difference between pre-renovation and post-renovation seems to be the price. \n\nThere is an required $25 resort fee, which is the norm now for Vegas, but to offset that you get \"high speed internet access\" (normally $14 a day) for \"free.\" The thing is, \"high speed internet access\" is about 0.5 Mbps down. But that's okay, for just $20ish more dollars a day, you can speed speeds TEN TIMES AS FAST! ...5 Mbps down. I get that there are lots of guests and many who would like to connect to the wifi, but including WiFi in the resort fee and then THROTTLING it in an effort to make more money is just dirty.\n\nSeriously, I would get faster speeds by tethering my phone and connecting to the LTE it provides. Except... There is no cell coverage. Like, barely 3G speeds. And at first I thought \"Gee, maybe it's just T-Mobile?\" Except I am here with friends that have both AT&T and Verizon. And here's another weird thing: all of us have full coverage everywhere except here. On the 14th floor of a newly remodeled \"resort\" on the Las Vegas Strip. \n\nSo we can't use our phones, and the WiFi is unusable (unless we fork over even more cash). This is 2014, and a situation like this is insulting. Holding usable speeds at ransom is despicable.\n\nThe room itself is fine for what it is: a small, basic room. It's a bed to sleep in, a TV to watch, and a shower to wash up in. 300ish feet, a few new-looking fixtures, and a C+ view. At least the A/C is cold. I wouldn't mind hanging out here if I could DO anything while I was here, but at this point I can't even receive phone calls. \n\nDo yourself a favor and only stay here if it is absolutely necessary, or if you don't plan on being in your room at all and just need a bed to land in at the end of the night. The effort put into the recent remodel is appreciated, but at this point the price has gone up to the point that the difference between this and a better casino nearby is negligible and well worth the extra cost. |
2 | The place stinks of smoke like when it was the Imperial. The rooms are tiny. The WIFI works about half the time or less. The casino area is small, the only saving grace is the staff are attentive.\nThe bars and restaurants on the walk way are all nice. |
5 | If you've been here in the past, chances are it's different now than before. \n\nThat's a very good thing. This hotel used to be a real dump when it was the IP and the Quard. Not anymore.\n\nWe had a great stay at the Linq. The new rooms are modern and fantastic. No, they're not larger than they were before, but they make good use of space. There's a mural behind the bed (not every room has the same one) that's backlit under the headboard. The nightstands have lamps with 2 outlets on them for charging and the small desk built into the wall has an additional 3 outlets and wired internet built into the desk. There's also WiFi which I did not use, as I had plenty of Verizon LTE in my room and in the casino. The bathroom has a shower with rainfall showerhead and plenty of hot water. The closet area has a small fridge built in.\n\nService was excellent - even the housekeepers were friendly - and there was no shortage of people cleaning and dusting the halls and making the place look like new. \n\nConstruction is still ongoing. It's limited to outdoors between the parking garage and entrance and the area leading back to the guest elevators. The pool area is still under construction as is the spa. They are also still doing about half of the rooms in the hotel - I noticed while riding the High Roller that the rooms closest to the strip were all dark so those must be the rooms still being refurbished. You wouldn't know it from walking off of the elevator - that's all new - and we didn't encounter any noise during our stay. While we did hear several rooms getting their party on walking from the elevator to our room, once we were in our room we didn't hear any noise.\n\nThe casino is a fun place to play and both my wife and I won more here than the other places we played. The new lounge off the lobby (3535) has great cocktails with infused liquors and again very friendly service. Hash House is probably the best breakfast in Vegas. I don't think we encountered anyone working at the Linq that didn't seem happy to be there. Even the guards checking room keys at the elevators were fun.\n\nStay here. I'd come back again in a heartbeat. |
2 | A potential to become a decent hotel but not close to even being there as of 11/25/2014. I would suggest travelers to consider other options for the Vegas lodging at least until Spring 2015. We stayed in a Deluxe King. The followings are the positive, area of improvements and unacceptable conditions:\n\nPositive:\n1) Centralize location in the heart of the Vegas Strip and LinQ Promenade\n2) Customer service have improved from previous reviews during the opening of the Hotel (10/30/2014)\n3) Room is modern and fairly spacious.\n4) Strong pressurized water flow for the shower\n\nArea of Improvements:\n1) Quality Control, review of hotel rooms, and system synchronization:\n - Example: registration system indicate a King bedroom but once we went to the respective room the room was 2 full size\n2) Lack of attention for the House Service team:\n - Missing Alarm Clock, bath robes, Ipod Stereo , which are all listed in the hotel website. \n - Body Wash, Shampoo, Conditioner were all empty during our stay. Isn't it in the cleaning process to refill each time? \n3) Blackout curtains does not cover the entire window. Sun will shine through in the morning. \n4) Minimal amenities a basic hotel may offer:\n - Front desk indicated Body Lotion is not provided\n - No Desk lamp but there are bed lamps\n\nUnacceptable conditions:\n1) Expect to hear construction work and LOUD noises starting @ 7am each day!\n - Constant work noise and earthquake like vibrations\n\nAdjust your expectation accordingly if you are consider staying at the LinQ Hotel in 2014. A potential to become a decent hotel but not close to even being there as of 11/25/2014. |
3 | When I had originally booked this hotel I was under the impression that the hotel will be fully remodeled for its grand opening on Oct 30, but that was not the case. Almost a month later they are still currently doing construction on this place.\n\nStayed here this past weekend for 4 nights. Once arrived we were greeted by valet and directed to hotel receptionist. I was able to check in an hour earlier, the receptionist originally asked if 6th floor would work but after reading all the reviews prior to my trip I decided to ask for something higher, ended up staying on the 17th floor. There is a security guard right by the elevators checking everyone's room key prior to going up. Only 3 out of the 4 elevators were in operation. The room was decent, clean linen, refeidgerator and a slight view overlooking the Linq promenade. At night I would be able to hear the music outside on the promenade but I was so exhausted the noise didn't bother me so much. The noise that did bother me was being woken up to jack hammering on the roof on Monday morning which was not pleasant and the constant noise of construction went on throughout that day till about 5PM\n\nIt's a decent place to stay for the price we paid and the location on the strip met our needs. The Linq promenade was conveniently located with access to restaurants, stores and a 24 hour Starbucks. |
1 | I'm sure this place is a work in progress but it should have been torn down. The rooms are very small and modern. Not a fan if having the a/c blow right on me at night either. Parking is not much fun. I would not stay here again.\n\nEdit:\n\nStayed there again to \"give them a chance\" it was even worse this time. I had more interactions with the staff at all levels and was not impressed. Most of the staff seems to not have a clue what they are doing, even the Vip office. I know for sure I will never set foot in this place again. |
3 | I haven't stayed at the LINQ hotel but I was frequently in here as we were staying at the Flamingo. The Flamingo doesn't offer free wifi so we came in here to use the wifi and check in for our flight the next day. We sat in the lounge where there was seating as a DJ spinning the tunes. She played dance mixes of old and new but the lounge wasn't too busy. The server came to see if we wanted drinks but didn't bother us after we declined the first time.\n\nWe also came in here looking for the Guy Fieri restaurant and walked around while waiting for a table to be available. There's a small convenience shop across the way from the restaurant. It sells alcohol, Vegas souvenirs, snacks, and popcorn but you are paying much more than Walgreens or CVS.\n\nThe slot machines and tables weren't very busy every time I walked through and I saw the bar servers walking around. Like that the Promenade and shops are close by. |
1 | Only giving one star as this place was a wreck! I booked rooms prior to opening so there were no reviews when I booked. The front desk people are unbelievably rude and refuse to assist or take care of the customer. Really really bad. Ran out of toilet paper and called down to house keeping seven times... Never received it... Construction is constant and loud! Never should have opened with that kind of work going on. And employees need to be trained to be better accommodating. They have tons of nasty attitude! |
1 | Strike 1: Getting rid of the dealertainers. Freddie Mercury to be exact.\nStrike 2: That doucher, Guy Fieri, has a restaurant here now.\nStrike 3: THE FAT TUESDAY IS CLOSED. \nI've gottta say i am a bit bitter about how they took the good ol' IP and turned it into this. |
2 | Wow! The resort fee is $28.00 a day...!\nIs it because, MGM Grands's resort fee are Aria, Bellagio, Delano, Mandalay Bay, MGM Grand, The Mirage, Vdara, The Signature at MGM Grand: from $28...?\nAnd top of that Caesars Entertainment properties (except for Ceasear Palace) resort fee include spas and fitness centers \nBut, at Linq there is no spa and the all exercise machines are old the room was very small ones still at the old property..\nI don't know why I paid top resort fee but not get all the advantages is supoose to come with...!\nBut only thing your get is wifi for two devices..!\nOnly reason we stayed was this was new remodeled property, anyway...!\nEverything else was still kind of nice though..! |
3 | Room is beautiful and awesome with great design.\nSelf parking garage is kinda far away from lobby.\nHotel staff is nice but casino staff is not.\nI had no fun with the dealer, they don't really talk and they just dispatch the card from the mix machine. I would prefer they do hand mix the cards. |
2 | IF YOU HAVE A RESERVATION HERE, CANCEL IT NOW. The positives (there are many). Friendly and professional parking valet, front desk staff, bell men and housekeepers. Quick, easy check-in. Nice, remodeled rooms. Comfortable beds. Good location on the strip adjacent to the Linq Promenade. The negative. CONSTRUCTION NOISE. It is very loud. My wife and I wore ear plugs and the construction noise was still very loud (we always travel with ear plugs). It's a loud, constant, pounding noise. We were unable to sleep once it started at about 6:30 a.m. It's significant. Come back when the remodel is complete because this property has a lot of positives. It is only half complete at this point according to the staff. My 2 cents. |
3 | I stayed here for the last 3 nights. WHAT A BIG CHANG IN SERVICE!!! Before, when it was the Quad/ Imperial Palace, the service was hit or miss. The rooms were always clean and the price and location was excellant, but, service?...... Not so great. Upon checking in, they were friendlt, courtoou6, and fast. The bell desk delivered my luggage quickly and the room was totally remodeled to a more modern-day style. The room service staff was courteous and quick and professional. While gambling, my drinks were quickly brought to me. The only couple of problems I had was that there is NO clock in the room and the liquor in the casino was sub-par. Other wise... I would definitely stay here again! |
3 | I know I am only rating \"The Linq or The Quad or Imperial Palace\" 3 stars, but I love staying at this place. It is the best location in Vegas for rock bottom prices. You will not be amazed by the rooms, but you will by the location. Step out side and everything is right there. Do a little bit of gambling and sign up for the players card and you will be getting promotions all the time for either discounted or free rooms.\n\nIf you stay here and don't expect to get a 5-star resort... you will love this place and come back. |
1 | Terrible hotel. I usually spend 50+ nights a year in a hotel and this is easily the worst experience I have had in years. We originally were given a room overlooking about 10 dumpsters on the 3rd floor and asked to move so we wouldn't be woken up early by the trash truck. We moved to the 19th floor. 6:30 am construction of some sort started directly above us. After several calls to the front desk and GM the noise is still going on at 9am almost non stop on the floor above us. I would equate it too trying to sleep directly below a bowling alley. Chairs and furniture are being drug across the floor almost non stop. I am checking out a day early, this is just unacceptable. I could have gotten more sleep with a mattress on the strip. The shops at the linq are nice, lots to do, the hotel has been a nightmare experience. |
