Q: After wasting my lunch break, I'm appalled to see the type of ratings they've managed to receive. It really does give me an indication of what money can buy because quality certainly wasn't on their priority list when opening a restaurant. I felt like pho-bomination they served me today was cooked in a toilet bowl after the violent passing of spring rolls and slim jim. Mind you, I have eaten a fair share of Pho places throughout the WORLD, including in Vietnam. I'd be ashamed to serve this lukewarm soaked garbage with chunks of shoe leather to my own enemies. Will i go back? I would rather fallete a vagabond with a mild case of gonorrhea then put myself through another wasted meal at District One.

Q: For all my Canadian friends who visit Vegas, take the time to visit this outlet if you're at all interested in shoes. I stopped in out of curiosity, having never bought Skechers before, and walked out with four pairs! Well, I HAD to get four, they were having a sale with your second pair being half price, and I certainly wanted to maximize my savings, right?? I had no idea there were so many different styles of Skechers, nor that they were so comfortable. I felt like I could have wandered their aisles for hours to try everything on. Usually I have a hard time finding shoes that make my poor old feet happy, so this was a real treat, and I'll definitely visit them again next trip!

Q: My mood at Mood was MOODY! I'm a vegetarian, and when we first arrived at Mood, I was super happy to see that there were several animal-friendly items on their menu. However, my hopes and dreams were quickly crushed when I learned that a) the server had given me the WRONG menu [no idea HOW old my menu was, or WHERE the heck it even came from], and b) on the new menu, the only meat-free item was out of stock. The waiter said the chefs could make something upon my request. Thrilled, I asked for pasta with veggies and a LOT of cheese. The server told me that wouldn't be a problem. Anxiously, we waited... and waited... and waited. Finally, after about 45 minutes, our entrees arrived. Things got worse from there. My dish did not have pasta, veggies, OR cheese on it. Instead, I received a plate of salty cous cous, with a miniscule amount of garlic and green onion. My friend joked that it looked like something from an Uncle Ben's commerical. I'd equate it to t.v. dinner quality. I hardly ate the thing! I have to admit, I was dismayed and immediately let the server know how I felt. I must confess, he deserves a raise for putting up with me, because I was not a very gracious customer. He wound up comping the entree, but I still left the restaurant hungry and irritable! Out of the other 3 people at our table, only one person enjoyed their dinner, and he is quite possibly a human garbage disposal. My boyfriend was pleased with his steak, but then again, he'll eat anything! When our friend sampled a bit of the steak, she made the worst facial expression I have ever seen. As a non-meat eater, I can't comment on it, but I will say this: for $29, it looked awfully small. My friend found her lobster mac and cheese to be too salty. Another buddy had a scallop and rice dish that was reportedly rather bland. He, too, complained about the size of the portions. I don't plan on ever returning to Mood (which I'm sure will please my poor server, bless his heart). I found the wait times to be unacceptable, especially for a non-busy night. The prices were too high, and the portions too small. Had the food been better quality, I would have been more forgiving. To be completely honest, after we left Mood, we went to Inn N Out! I'll stick with my Grilled Cheese (animal style) and extra crispy fries, thank you very much.

Q: I stayed 3 nights on business and chose this hotel because it was a good rate and was really close to my conference. Might not come back again. My stay began with a 50 minute wait in line to check in after a very long and exhausting flight. Then I was placed in a room on the first floor. The Grand is enormous so I spent about 20 mins searching for the weird little corridor to the rooms. The corridor was shabby, low drop ceiling. It felt like I was being stored in the basement. Then I enjoyed excruciatingly long waits for everything for the next several days. The line for Starbucks in the morning was up to 40 minutes. A call I placed to the front desk had me on hold for 25 min before the system hung up on me. Then another 20 minutes on hold before I finally got an answer. The taxi line on two occasions took more than 20 minutes...Eeesh, so much time wasted waiting in line. I fell drained and can't wait to go home. The Internet and cable was out for the entire day on my final day so I was not able to work or watch tv. The lobby level is insanely crowded as all hotel traffic of any kind is routed through the vast casino. It takes forever fighting through crowds of people to get anywhere. My room was very dark, very little lighting making it really difficult to find personal items or pack. I probably left something behind because it was like packing in the middle of a blackout with a flashlight. The positives were that my room was not fancy but not bad, and was very clean. Once I did finally get to the head of the long lines the staff were very professional and helpful. Overall I would not recommend for business as it is a logistical chore in many ways.
