Q: This is the most AWFUL Italian food I have EVER eaten! I took my fiance' here for his birthday and what a mistake that was. Everything we ordered had way too much garlic, including the house salad dressing which was almost inedible. He ordered the chicken marsala-the sauce was thin and runny and tasted like they literally poured maple syrup on top! It tasted unlike any Marsala we've ever tried, and NOT in a good way. The side of pasta we both had was dry and the red sauce was extremely bland. I didn't know you could ruin Italian food this bad. The service was acceptable, but not what you would expect at a fine dining restaurant. The restaurant was also lacking atmosphere. We normally love Italian food and love trying new restaurants, but we definitely won't be returning. If you want a 1 star dining experience with 5 star prices, this is the place for you.

Q: My first stay at Wynn was simply- AMAZING! I can't begin on how intricate and detail the gorgeous interior design is, how hospitable the staff is, and how perfect my trip was from check in to check out. The Wynn pool is very relaxing. In our cabana, we were taken care of by Joe who made sure to stop by frequently, which was appreciated. Joe was comfortable with the menu, which made our order much easier. Food: I ordered the Berry Smoothie with no dairy, using pineapple juice as a base instead of yogurt! Additionally, I had the Garden Pita. The Garden Pita was SO good that I've been making it at home ever since! (Almost a week now!) The Garden Pita is prepared with a variety of fresh veggies stuffed into a fluffy, warm pita along with red pepper hummus. Seriously. SO good! Our table shared a fresh Guacamole, Salsa, and Chips dish that was prepared very nicely. I usually love guacamole more, but the salsa was really really delicious! The pool itself was busy but still was quite relaxing. After a short while, we ventured into the European pool hoping to have more fun with the blackjack tables, bar, and topless pool. The tables were good, the drinks were refreshing (I had a non-alcoholic pineapple juice), and the crowd was younger/more exciting. There was only one person who was taking advantage of the "European" experience, but it was a comfortable atmosphere for those who are interested.

Q: EDIT: Not only is the food awful, but the owner is crazy. I've been harassed, insulted, and he's tried every trick in the book to have my review removed. Luckily, there's only so much he can do. Received a message from somebody else who was being harassed by this guy too, but, in her case, he had found her name from the credit card receipts and posted it here. This is completely unacceptable behavior. I've posted his first comment to me below, but there have been many re-writes since. Not only do I think you shouldn't eat there because the food is overpriced and bland, you shouldn't eat there because you're supporting a bully. Original reply from the owner since he's changed it now: "I'm sorry we couldn't give your food expectation at Istanbul sofra. With all the respect you never dine in with us. Because we don't serve just falafel and yogurt sauce or just rice . Your past reviews you never had mediterrean or Turkish cuisine before . I understand didn't fit in your taste . And looks like all the restuarant doing terrible job because all the restuarant you have reviewed 1 or 2 star.our act is already together. I just like to confirm that. We serve more than falafel sauce An it's Tabouli. start to appreciate some of the small restuarants. They all not 1 or 1 .Regards " Original Review: The atmosphere is lovely and the location is great. Everything good ends there. I got the falafel platter and tabbouleh with a side of the yogurt sauce. Where to start... So, the falafel itself had absolutely no flavor and was super hard until you got a fork through it and it fell apart. Very odd. When I say no flavor, I mean "nothing". I didn't know this was even possible. So, I went to layer on the tahini sauce, only to discover that it was too runny and also had no real flavor. It was like juice more than sauce. So, I tried the yogurt sauce. I'm halfway convinced that they used a very diluted ranch dressing - you know, the kind you get in a place that's trying to cut costs. At least it had some sort of tangy runny flavor, but still very disappointing. The rice was overcooked and hard and the tabbouleh was just as bland as the rest. The tomatoes had no flavor (come on, it's summer!) and there was no lemony tang or, really, anything. It was just kind of there. Even the pickled vegetables that were on the side was tasteless. I actually started to think that maybe something was wrong with my tastebuds since it all just tasted like cardboard to me. But, my dining partner had the same experience. The service was okay, but not great. I really hope they get their act together. It's a great spot and I'd like to have something enjoyable there,.

Q: I've walked by this place quite a few times over my previous Vegas trips and was looking forward to finally trying the frozen hot chocolate. I'm guessing that sitting outside in 115 degree weather last weekend (in the dead zone between misting fans, no less) didn't help very much, but while chocolate-y, it kind of felt like something i could make at home with ice and a blender. Also had a root beer float (which was actually really good), reuben, and sweet potato fries. It is on the pricey side, but then again, so is the rest of Vegas. I'd probably go back to try some of the other desserts or cocktails, but the food is probably a pass.
