Q: Located in the Encore, Botero, named after the Colombian artist Fernando Botero, houses much of his beautiful artwork, complete with a sculpture of a voluptuous woman in the middle of the restaurant. We luckily got a great table right by the statute and facing the grand Encore Beach Club pool. We trekked all the way from the Golden Nugget (we went to see one of Gallagher's last watermelon smashing shows), so we were starving and were going for any appetizers. I got the petite filet, 8 ounces, with the chimichurri preparation. The BF got the Bone-In Ribeye which came with a trio of sauces. The filet was cooked perfectly, but I did not care for the chimichurri sauce. The sauce was not flavorful at all, it was more of a dry-rub. I have had better chimichurri at a backyard BBQ. The BF's ribeye was much tastier than my filet and the three sauces were an interesting touch. For our side, we got the truffle mac and cheese, which was good, but not as decedent as I expected. The ambience and of course, my company, was amazing. However, for being the Encore, I was just not impressed. It is definitely not something to write home to mom about.

Q: Olivia, I'm hopelessly devoted to you!!!! You put on a GREAT show and absolutely surpassed our expectations. Summer Nights was definitely worth the ticket price of $165. Olivia sang all our favorites (see setlist)--Xanadu, Grease and Physical. The theater is a small, intimate venue--making every seat a great one. We even had room to get up and dance!!! A fun night and perfect outing for our group of 9 women!

Q: This hotel is centrally located and there is plenty around to eat and do for those staying here while in town for work. They also were very accommodating when I required transportation in the early morning hours and arranged car service for me. However, my room was foul. Not the worst or most disgusting I've ever stayed in but it was gross. The walls were bubbling and discolored, it smelled dingy and the air conditioning didn't convince me it worked appropriately. The worst was that the shower didn't drain and every time I showered I was standing in water up to my calves. I had much higher expectations for an Omni. I've stayed in Holiday Inns that were nicer.

Q: Not a traditional Chinese restaurant. Very cheap but not very good. I've had better food at Panda Express.
