Sentiment analysis: This is a NY pizza by the slice place in the "food court" next to Harrahs. You also have the option of Chipotle, Panda Express, or McDonalds. I chose pizza because the others had long lines, but immediately regretted my decision when I was charged almost $7 for a (mushroom and pepperoni) slice only slightly larger than normal. I could have bought a whole Chipotle burrito for that price. They warmed up the slice and I ate it, but it tasted average. You can bet that next time, I will choose to wait in line for another restaurant to get a better value for my money.

Sentiment analysis: Clearly, based upon the prior reviews of this place, Joe Beef is as polarizing as cilantro. Unfortunately, I'm in the camp that didn't care for it at all. I generally don't have such a huge problem waiting a few minutes for a reservation, but this place doesn't get it. There is virtually no space at all to wait inside the restaurant, so you're either waiting on the sidewalk or packed in like sardines by the tiny bar. We opted to be cramped by the bar with no seats and watched the bartender/oyster shucker cut his finger while trying to open one of the oysters. Ok, so he can't shuck an oyster, but what made it worse was that he proceeded with finishing the order without cleaning up his bloody finger. Shortly thereafter, said shucker then smelled another recently shucked oyster, made a face, poured out the liquor and put it on the tray. Needless to say, I was passing on the oysters. After watching that horror show for about a 45 minutes (we had a 9:15 reservation and were seated about 10:00) we were finally seated against the wall with the chalkboard menu. (We asked for a seat in the courtyard, and were told that we were getting one - their response was, "oh, sorry about that. no seats outside.") Fine, since my wife couldn't see the menu, and doesn't speak french, we asked the server for some help. Some people at the bar were sharing what looked like a veal chop with fiddlehead ferns - he said that it was a lamb shank and that it was spectacular. We thought he knew what he was talking about. Given the late hour and the fact that we were grossed out by the oyster debacle, we skipped on starters. Fast forward another hour. I try to summon our server to ask where our food was. His answer - well, your order didn't go in right away since you didn't order an appetizer. Seriously? It's 11pm, bring me my dinner that I ordered an hour ago. The food came, and it was not the same thing as what the guys at the bar ordered. It tasted fine, but at that point, I was so disenchanted that I couldn't even enjoy it. One thing that stood out was that it was a little too gamey. My wife wound up eating some fiddlehead ferns for dinner since she couldn't get over the gaminess of the lamb. The server came back to apologize and brought us dessert on the house - but who cared at that point. If I could give this place negative stars for my overall experience I would.

Sentiment analysis: FRAUD ALERT: The food was fine, however as we received our check our waiter "upsold" us on joining a membership club for diners. Apparently we would receive in the mail a package of coupons and certificates well in excess of the price of the fee to join. Three months and several aggravating long phone calls later we never received a card in the mail and there are no coupons or benefits as promised.
