Problem: Not Impressed at ALL!!! Had to wait nearly 45 minutes when we were told the wait was 20 minutes. I really didnt enjoy standing in the middle of the parking lot waiting for my table! When we were finally seated I felt right at home because our table was also in the parking lot! LOL! I planned on ordering the eggplant lasagna - until my friend pointed out it took 45 minutes to cook - no thanks. I want outta here quick. Instead I ordered the Lady is a Scampi - I will describe it as strange. My friend ordered a pasta dish also and a side order of the Giant Meatball. When the "Giant Meatball" came out it wasnt giant it was all cut up in the sauce - aka meat sauce. One good thing was the food came out quick so once we were finally seated we were outta there quick. I wont be back.

Problem: This place was pretty amazing. First, part of my party got there before me so I am not sure how long they waited, but we had 8 people on Saturday at 12 and were seated really quickly. Hat's off to them for their quick service. The server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I only wished I knew about the build your own waffle before I started. THE WAFFLES! YUM! I am not even a huge waffle or pancake fan. I had the Waffles Benedict with bacon instead of crab. It was delicious! I didn't need syrup! Speaking of syrup, they have an AMAZING collection of different types of syrups to try out. I was a bit disappointed that they didn't offer it up to anyone. My boyfriend had to ask for it. He got the bourbon syrup. It was in a Jim Beam bottle! I was soo impressed with it, but sad they didn't offer their awesome syrups upon ordering or delivering the food. I will have to go back and try the other kinds! They seemed like they were a hot commodity as another server came over to pick up the syrup and pass it onto another table. Try them! They are delicious. Overall, the service was good, food was a little pricey for what it was but well worth trying out. I'll definitely be back to try a new dish, and syrup for that matter.

Problem: I am torn between giving this place 3.5 stars and 4, but since I cannot give half a star, I'll go ahead and give it 4. The design of the hotel and the rooms is really nice, modern and we really loved the smoke-free atmosphere. Plus you don't have to deal with any crowds. If you want eateries and casinos, they are a few steps away at the Aria and the Bellagio, etc. The beds are comfortable, but having the bathroom door right by the bed was not my favorite, particularly because the door did not close all the way. They do, however, provide plenty of towels and Aveda soaps, lotions, and hair products. Arriving at the hotel can be confusing, mainly because the Vdara does not have its own dedicated parking lot. Valet parking is complementary, but the wait time, from what we heard, could be about 30 minutes if you needed your car back. We walk everywhere when we're in LV, so that was not a problem. We also checked-out early, so we got our car pretty quickly. No complaints about the valet staff at all - they were all very nice. Check-in was fairly quick and the staff was friendly. Our main complaint is that housekeeping never came to our room to clean it. We left fairly early on our second day and turned on the housekeeping light, but came back to a room that looked exactly the same way we left it. Thank goodness for the extra towels, right? For a fairly pricey resort, I find this unacceptable. I am not surprised when this happens at places like the Circus Circus, but here I was not the least bit amused. Also, we would not recommend trying to call any of the hotel desks because you will be hard-pressed to get someone to answer your questions...or at all. Personally, I would rather stay at the Aria, which was awesome from beginning to end, or any of the other wonderful resorts out there.

Problem: A friend recommended Coconut's, but I didn't try it until I was really hungry after unpacking for two days straight. The fish tacos were highly recommended by the enthusiastic former Californian who worked there, but I found them to be just alright. Messy and packed, they were fresh, but not particularly flavorful. The fried shrimp basket was also recommended, so on the second visit, I tried it. Again, OK. But I also got the seafood soup -- now that was some good stuff. Creamy, hot, chock full of vegetables and fish -- YUM! I'll go back again to try the fish burgers and salads. It's so close; it's always clean and packed and it's healthy eating.
