output: I've visited this establishment twice, once for dinner and more recently for their reopened lunch buffet. For dinner, the food was okay, but the service was severely lacking. It took forever (about 2 hours total) to order our food, get water and refills, get our food and finally pay our check. The butter chicken was so-so. The aloo gobi even less remarkable. The 2 kinds of naan were too doughy. Despite this mediocre experience, I was willing to give their lunch buffet a try, especially since the wifey was curious to experience their cuisine. What a mistake that was... First of all, the price of $11.99 is at the high end for Indian lunch buffets, and this place is the exception to the rule that you get what you pay for. The selection and quality was downright pathetic and frankly embarassing. Ok, to be fair, it was still better than our abysmal experience at Sherpa House (in Golden, CO) but that is setting the bar extremely low. There were a whopping total of 8 hot trays consisting of items such as onion "pakora" (basically onion ring fragments), orange chicken, daal, chana masala, goan fish curry, lamb curry, paneer masala, and (non-Basmati) rice. There was also a small salad bar section and kheer. There was a surprising lack of classic staples such as mango chutney, samosas, Tandoori chicken, any kind of chicken curry, or saag. Although we enjoyed the fish curry, it could not make up for the lack of selection and quality of the rest of items. The garlic naan was so-so. It was simultaneously too doughy yet too hard and dry on the bottom. The kheer was the worst we've ever had. It lacked cardamom flavor and contained numerous clumps of rice. At least this time around, the service was half decent. The only other mitigating factor was they were running a $2 off promotion, although we had to specifically ask for the discount to be applied. That being said, the fact that this place garners stellar reviews is a real head scratcher. Perhaps, restaurants located in the (relative) boonies are held to a lower standard. Who knows? As for me, when I rate a restaurant, I don't care where a restaurant is located. The food is either good or it isn't. It's either a good value or it isn't. Unfortunately, this place is neither.

output: My favorite Chinese restaurant in the area. The double pan friend noodles are delicious. My favorite dish there is the beef hi fun, dry. those two dishes remind me of my childhood meals made by my mother. The ladies working there are super courteous and they give a military discount. The quality to price contrast is also really good. I want to say the lunch specials are under 7 dollars and the portions are ample.

This was my first weekend Vegas trip w/ my bf and we were planning on having a special weekend.. We saw the low rates on hotels.com and decided to book The Las Vegas Hilton. We didn't realize how far away it was from the strip and that made it difficult with transportation and everything when meeting our friends who came along with us. When booking my hotel room at The Las Vegas Hilton, I requested a smoking room and hypo-allergenic bedding for the room.. I am severely allergic to feathers. As I checked in, the GSA didn't review any notes about my stay.. She didn't even welcome us. She just said Last Name, here's your keys. Didn't even say enjoy your stay or anything.She didn't tell us about amenities of the hotel or tell us where anything was located. I just knew that was a bad impression first off. When we arrived at the room, there were pillows n a comforter both with feathers and we were checked into a non-smoking floor. I was pretty upset so i called downstairs to get everything changed. I was on hold for 15 mins just to talk to the operator.. It took 2 hours to get new keys to our room. We went to our new room and still.. MORE FEATHERED PILLOWS... I called downstairs and was very pissed at this point. The housekeeper that answered the phone was very rude. I asked her about how long it would take the get the hypo-allergenic pillows to my room which in the first place i requested in our room.. She said about 20 mins.. I said ok, I explained the situation to her w/ my request in the first place and all she said was. DO YOU WANT THE PILLOWS OR NOT! I couldn't believe that she would give me (the guest) So much attitude... 1 1/2 hrs later, the pillows showed up... The following day, I called housekeeping again to request some fresh towels. 3 hrs later, they showed up.. I was so irritated with how bad their service was I was ready to check out. The day that we checked out.. I went up to the counter and yes, the same GSA that checked us in was there to check us out.. She didn't ask how everything was or how our stay was.. She just yelled very loudly.. YOU HAVE A 0 BALANCE SO YOUR SET TO GO... Everyone in line looked at us and I was very embarrassed. She didn't thank us for staying at The Las Vegas Hilton, she didn't say come visit us again.. NOTHING!!! I WILL NEVER, EVER STAY AT THE LAS VEGAS HILTON AGAIN!! Do yourself a favor.. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY AT THE LAS VEGAS HILTON... Find a hotel much more worth your money. I went to the Wynn for the brunch buffet, I wasn't even a hotel guest and I got much better service in the 20 mins I was in line that I did at my entire stay at the Hilton. Next time, I will stay directly on the strip and will spend more for a room because obviously, it'll be much more worth it..
