A: I am the person who they tried to force to sit in the very last row of the very top tier in exchange for my 4th row gallery seats. Once at the show, I went to the balcony last row and explained to the usher my predicament. She told me to see the usher on the gallery level. I then walked down to and spoke to an usher on the gallery level who radioed her manager. Apparently, the manager already knew my name but had not responded to my many messages (2 telephone messages while at the Smith Center that morning and about a half dozen emails prior thereto). The "phantom" manager then said we could sit in unused box seats. So, I had to run back up to the balcony, retrieve my friend, and we both had to run back down to the dress circle all before the show started. Needless to say, I got my exercise that day. Simply put, I had to personally handle the matter 15 minutes before curtain that could have easily been taken care of by management much earlier. Interestingly, my friend and I noticed empty seats in the gallery section despite being told that they were not available. Add-On tickets We purchased 2 add-on tickets to see La Cage which arrived in the mail prior to our season subscription. The seats are not our season ticket seats. When I called to ask why, I was told that our seats for the season "were not available" for La Cage. Really? I thought we had preference? Now I see that they are deeply discounting tickets to La Cage. I will probably see a lot of empty seats again, maybe even our season subscription seats. Update will follow. Missing tickets I received my season subscription tickets in the mail on Saturday, August 4, 2012. None of my add-ons were in the envelope. I ordered and paid for 2 additional tickets to Wicked and 2 tickets to American Idiot in April. Wicked is three weeks away and I still do not have my extra 2 tickets. I immediately contacted Patron Services about the missing tickets and was told that they showed they were printed and mailed so I should expect them in a separate envelope in a few days. Nearly one week later, and I still do not have the Wicked and American Idiot tickets. I checked The Smith Center Facebook page and read some comments that other people have the same issue. The response to those comments was that the extra tickets were supposed to be in the envelope and to call Patron Services. Really? Based on this response, I again contacted Patron Services about my tickets and am still waiting for an answer. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. Update will follow.

A: I've seen some pretty amazing planetariums, so this was definitely smaller than I expected. Not terribly impressive, but my kids thought it was absolutely amazing!!!! The first reviewer, in my opinion, was completely unfair. 1 star? Really? You've been twice, the first time was great and the second time they had technical difficulties. Hardly fair to give them a single star for that. I would think that at least merits 3 stars. It is, after all, a publicly funded community college in a state that's been strapped for cash for several years now. I'm grateful they have something like this here in Las Vegas. We went there during Nevada Science Week and got to meet some professors and the folks who operate the observatory and planetarium. Thank you for having a good science department at your college, and thank you for participating in NV Science Week and allowing families to visit and enjoy for free. My kids are in love with science, and my oldest wants to be an astrophysicist when he grows up, so we appreciate every opportunity to encourage his interests.

Answer: Came to the Wynn for the buffet but with a 2 hour wait, we decided to eat here instead. Service was ok but a little slow. We came with a group of 8. We ordered around 10 dishes total and asked the server if it was enough food. He assured us it would be but alas it was not. The food itself is pretty tasty but the portion size left us all wanting for more. Pan fried noodles and the roast duck were the two dishes that particularly stuck out in my mind. It might be unfair to compare this place to more authentic chinese restaurants in LA but can't help it, sorry.

Output: Wouldn't eat it if I was on Survivor!!!! Absolutely Horrible. Had to walk out the food was so bad. I did not have a yelp profile until I ate here, this place inspired me to tell others not to eat here. Yes!!! It was that horrific

output: I have vascillated on Mrs. White's for a few years now. Today's visit sealed the deal for me on why I won't return. I got a to-go order of fried chicken, black eye peas and rice with gravy (since they were out of mac & cheese at 11:30 am). As I waited for my order, I watched several plates of chicken being delivered to customers eating in. The pieces were so huge they were half falling off the plates and towering above them. I looked forward to the same as I drove home, especially since I paid $14.81 for my lunch- and that did not include a beverage. Imagine my dismay as I opened my box at home and discovered three tiny pieces of underseasoned not-so-fresh tasting chicken. What the hell? You give the sit down customers the best you have to offer because they might complain otherwise? You give me some bullshit chicken because I am doing carryout? The peas were mush, the rice & gravy was bland, and the cornbread was overdone on the outside and heavy and underdone inside. I guess you're overcharging your customers to bank-roll your retirement, which will surely come sooner rather than later since I can't imagine how you're keeping customers.

UGH! It appears as though we've lost another place that WAS great. King Wong WAS our go to for great chinese food, but no more. We had become regulars, eating there at least 1-2 per week. When the food was terrible the first time, we chalked it up to a bad day, and didn't think about it. Everyone has a bad day right? So then we ordered again, and it was worse than the last time. WTH?? Did they fire their cook? Not wanting to believe our fave little Chinese dive could possibly have gone down the tubes, we gave them one last shot. Mistake. It was even worse than the last two times. Don't bother eating here. Easier to just dump some oil on old food in the back of your fridge and call it a day.
