Q: negative

A: I've never been a big shopper, but the last time I went, I was with some hardcore shopaholics. While I typically spend most of my days sleeping near a pool, I spent my last trip between the shopping areas of Cesar's and the Bellagio. When shopping in Vegas, especially at high-end stores, one expects high quality products matched with high-end service. I expect no less from a place like Tod's. Given how empty it was when we visited, I expected better service. We found what we wanted, but because we had a long day in front of us, we asked if we could hold it and pick it up later in the day. When we returned, we found that the people at Tod's decided to sell the pair that we put on hold. There were no apologies, just statement.

Q: negative

A: Mack's used to be our preferred late night stop. When my friends and I all worked 2nd shift, this was the best neighborhood bar we could go to. I'm not sure if it's management and staff changes, or if it's the new Dos Gringos that opened up next door, but something about Mack's just isn't fun anymore. Service: Spotty at best - if you can find a server when they are busy, they make you feel as if you should be apologizing to them for bothering them. They are great about clearing empty bottles and glasses of the table, but try to get a fresh drink - you are better off wading through the crowd and going to the bar. Food: The food is still good, but again, the service isn't - so unless you are ok with cooling food and waiting for a while, it's not really worth it. Crowd: Not sure what happened here, but the douche bag to human ratio has spiraled out of proportion. It was always a biker type place, with plenty of normal people mixed in. Now, it's full of obnoxious guys in polo shirts with popped collars who think groping you on your way to the bathroom is just good fun. It may be that the frat boys are getting lost when they try to head to Dos. Sadly, while I will still meet friends up there on occasion, it's not my first pick anymore.

Q: negative

A: The employee took us on a tour of the whole store trying to find our part. he then disappeared and never came back. another employee told me they didn't have what we wanted and sent me to a plumbing shop on the other side of the valley. 30 minutes later I learned the shop he recommended didn't sell parts. I usually have good luck at ace in my home state but this one gives the whole chain a bad name.

Q: positive

A:
I felt like steak but didn't want to pay $60-$100 for the meal eating at a Steakhouse on the Vegas Strip. My buddy found this place through Yelp and we thought WTH.... I had a pretty large and very decent Porterhouse, the French onion soup was adequate, and the mushrooms were actually really good. Didn't touch the mashed potatoes because I didn't want to fill up valuable stomach space but they piled it high on my plate. All that food for 35 bucks? Heck yeah! The service was great. Our server Crystal was very friendly and Johnny-on-the-spot with drink refils. This place definitely makes Strip based steakhouses feel way over priced. We certainly will be going back to Peppermills
