Q: The lasers are virtually painless, the staff is super friendly and professional and they provide change for the parking meters as well as bottled water, free of charge. Rad.

Q: Two years after my first visit to MIX Lounge, I returned this past weekend with my sister. I knew I had to take her here on her first visit to Vegas for the incredible view of the Strip lit up at night. Luckily for us the balcony was open, so we were able to snag seats outside near the heat lamps to enjoy our drinks. Service at the bar was prompt and friendly, however, I did find the waitress service outside to be a bit on the slow side. Plus our waitress disappeared for long periods of time. But I can overlook that because I was too busy talking to my sister, people watching, rocking out to the eclectic mix of music they were playing that night (it ranged from 80s music to The Cupid Shuffle), and admiring the view. Before we left, I made sure that my sister checked out the bathrooms. It's quite funny to go to the bathroom while looking out at the Strip! MIX Lounge remains on my "must-do" list for friends that ask me for Vegas recommendations.

Q: Went here for restaurant week. It was $30 per person for an app, entree and dessert. I know it was a 'deal' but $30 for dinner for one person is not cheap. And given the very, very limited choices for the deal I did expect normal sized portions. They were small and I left hungry. I had some potato soup that tasted ok. Nothing amazing or anything. It was luke-warm in a boiling lava hot, very shallow bowl, so half the time was spent trying to figure out how to tilt the bowl to get a spoonful without blistering my fingers. I think they were hoping the super hot dish would heat up the soup. It did... kinda. Some bites were barely warm and some bites burnt my tongue. For my entree I had the salmon. It was overcooked, dry and crunchy around the edges with zero seasoning. It was one of the most bland things I've ever eaten. It was sitting on some weird avocado puree which also had no flavor. The tiny side salad was good.... quinoa and a lemon vinaigrette dressing with arugula. The dessert was an apple bread pudding which was dry and tiny. About 4 bites. It did taste good though, I just wish I wasn't still hungry after $30 worth of food. The service was good, and almost over the top. The water glasses, like the potion sizes, are tiny, so every time I would take a sip the bus boy would be right there topping it off. Every time. It was weird. Maybe if their water glasses were larger than 8 oz (literally), my glass wouldn't look half empty after one sip. I'll not be returning. The only saving grace was the ambiance of the place. It was warm and cozy.

Q: Great burger chain, I just hate this one particular restaurant that's on the strip. Dirty on the outside and horribly crowded on the inside. You'll see all sorts of people in the inside from the business professional to the dirty street hookers. What's important is that they're actually pretty well behaved since they've all walked off the alcohol I guess. This place is crowded as hell and it will take you a while to get your food. I ordered the king burger and a peanut butter shake and ate it all. The food was great but the waitline was just way way too long. We should have just gone through the drive through and then sat inside or something. (This technique works well at crowded In-N-Outs.)
