I moved into the neighborhood and was looking forward to a good local pizza and hoagie spot... this isn't it. I've given this place more than one opportunity to redeem itself, but each visit is worse than the last. The food is sub-standard at best and the waitstaff, although 'sorry' can't/won't do anything to make it any better. If you're hungry there are many other places to eat that won't leave you as disappointed as this place.

I agree with the previous yelp up to a point - yes the shoes are amazing, and yes they are pretty, but they are expensive and often give me blisters! It's the sort of place that you buy shoes to wear to an occassion, or pair of black boots. You know, staple items that will provide dedicated service all year round. But it's the price that puts me off.

This was my first time at the bar at T-Birds. I've only even been to T-Birds no more than 3 times in my life. So the whole experience was fresh for me. Monday night football. Cowboys and Redskins. I'm watching it as I type this. (Yes I'm at the bar writing this review). The women tending the bar are very nice and friendly. That was my first impression. The next thing that impressed me was the $2.50 bud light happy hour. One of the quickest beers I've been served. Went with the "Surf & Turf" - steak, fried shrimp, potatoes/fries, Texas toast, coleslaw. Food took a good amount of time to cook but the huge tv screen right in front me of me with the game playing distracted my stomach for the most part. Food finally arrived, and let me tell you it was delicious. They cooked the steak perfectly medium rare like I like it and shrimp were on point. I went with french fries cause I was already craving them before dinner. They have the thick waffle fries and are bomb. the only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 is because the little food table/tray that slides along the bar that you eat on isn't very sturdy and when I was cutting my steak the plate would spin because the tray and wobbling like crazy. That and the fact that there's very limited eating space, given I have a big plate, a beer, a side plate with Texas toast, and another little bowl with coleslaw... I didn't have enough room for everything. The video slots affected that the most. Other than that, great experience, would come here every Monday during football season.

I was in town for the Mint 400 and the Downtown Grand was recommended by a friend who told me it had recently been remodeled. Check in was great, the room was fantastic and the staff was tremendously friendly and helpful. The only odd thing was the shower didn't get quite as hot as I would have preferred, but that is a personal preference. Room rates were great, there were great restaurants - like the Triple George Grill - right across the street, and it was about a block and a half to Fremont Street. This is now my first choice for a place to stay when I'm in Vegas.
