Gonzales Gonzales is a mexican restaurant inside the casino. I've been eating there for years but not anything recent. I ordered chicken fajitas. Normally this selection would be served sizzling hot when arriving at the table. This item came out luke warm and the beans and rice arrived on another plate. The rice and beans were only luke warm and only about 5 bites of rice and 5 bites of beans, no cheese! The tortillas were luke warm...the service waiter was very good and attentive. no chips and salsa were served and chips and salsa have to be ordered as an extra cost.....most mexican restaurants will serve chips and salsa before you order...... The chandeliers above the eating area need to be cleaned or shaved , they look hairy from dust and lint. Gross! That's it!!....... ******************Security Warning *************** I was a guest at this hotel for five days. during this time period I stayed in the same room and at my request refused any type of room service or maid service. I had brought a pair of mini canon binoculars into the room, upon check out the binoculars were gone, I realized this a few hours or less after I left when I needed the binoculars for sight seeing at Red Rock. I contacted the hotel house keeping, short version, the maid said she had not seen them. A security report was filed and this is under investigation. It's hard to believe they had not been located , there's a possibility that someone used a room key during tbe week I was there unbeknownst to me.. The only people in the room was my wife and I and the cleaning staff, who cleaned the room one time right after we left. We had refused room service the entire week. I really hadn't seen the binoculars for about three days but wasn't looking for them either, when we checked out they were just out of sight out of mind. I didn't realize they were missing for a few hours after check out. Update will follow upon conclusion of the hotel security investigation. Just be mindful of these circumstances. I was sloppy for not having a good inventory of my stuff when I packed. 08-27-14 Update Conclusion Hotel completed their investigation, nothing to support my claim other then my statement. Through their own follow up and interviews and checking electronic records of my room lock they feel the theft is unsubstantiated. Bottom line I arrived at the hotel with the binoculars and somehow they were stolen from my room during my absence . They just didn't vanish into thin air...no compensation offered for replacement ( WHICH I DIDN'T EXPECT ) and they closed their case.....I won't be staying here again for obvious reasons. Take the information for what it's worth......... . THERES ANOTHER REVIEW THAT TALKS ABOUT THEFT OF MONEY FROM ANOTHER GUEST'S ROOM! That's it!!....

I visited the Scottsdale location after having a great lunch with a friend at the downtown phoenix Hula ocation. I ordered a Pink Bikini Martini, and my husband a Mai Tai, which were fantastic. We also ordered hapu ceviche, which was fresh and flavorful. For dinner we both ordered Ahi Tuna Sandwiches-- which I was sadly disappointed in. The Ahi Tuna was tough with a lot of tendons.. I could barely eat it, honestly. Sad because on my previous visit I ordered the Ahi Tacos, and they were delicious. For $15 for an Ahi Tuna Sandwich, I would expect a better cut of Tuna. My husband wasn't quite as offended about it and he loved his sandwich. I will definitely be back-- the appetizer, drinks, and ambience won me over even if the meal wasn't quite right.

Normally we hit Saigon palace when were looking for pho in charlotte, but it's time we branched out and started looking to see what else is out there, especially since the palace is not the greatest pho. Yelping this place with an overwhelming 70+ reviews which outpaced other viet restaurants in the area, I had my hopes up but didn't let my expectations get too lofty. Man did this place disappoint big time. Everyone got a bowl of pho. And what I got was an expensive (9.25 for a regular size bowl is outrageous in any area of the country besides Charlotte for some reason) watery bowl of nothingness. Meat completely non existent. Veggies sparse. Noodles even lacking which is usually used to replace lack of meat. Meat was overcooked and not a beautiful medium rare. I tried to enhance the watery bowl of pho by asking for some fragrant nuoc beo but obviously this place did not have it. That means they either cook the pho with pho flavored cubes or beef broth cans with lean meat and not huge stock bones with lots of fat. I recommend every pho loving person avoid this place at all costs.

Let me start out by saying, I love sushi. I am willing to pay reasonable prices for good sushi. And I understand, and even accept the fact that we are landlocked and will never get super fresh fish. But that being said, there are some pretty good sushi places in the valley. Zen 32 isn't one of them. The service was good, and the waitress helpful. She tried to coach some of the "sushi virgins" in our group about the menu. She was quite good at telling us what the items were, but it was obvious that she was simply repeating what she was told. She didn't really have the answers to a whole lot of questions. But she tried, and I'll give her an A for effort. The fish, well pretty much universally the fish lacked any flavor. The rolls were quite expensive, and all the fried asparagus and other strong ingredients covered up the fish flavor. It seemed as if they knew that the fish had no flavor so they intentionally tried to cover it up. Everything was either rolled with asparagus, fried, or covered in spicy mayo or chili sauce. Any of the roe that was used as garnish was so dry it would roll around the plate. The appetizers were good, but way over priced. Ten dollars for 5 lettuce leaves and a half a cup of filling is a bit much. Total bill per person for half an appetizer, iced tea, and a roll and a half each? Roughly forty dollars. If you like sushi, go somewhere else, enjoy it more, and save money.
