Q: negative

A: I keep trying to like this place. Really. And I do appreciate the gorgeous artwork on the ceiling and in the upper eaves. And the cool light shows that the stage is set up for. But when it comes to acoustics, service, and general comfort, this location fails. What should be a small, intimate concert experience always devolves into a sweaty, shoving free-for-all, with some 6'6'' dude standing right in front of me and a 10 minute wait at the bar for a $13 drink. The no re-entry policy kind of makes me feel an animal being herded into a corral during set breaks. I saw Umphree's McGee here last night, and have seen Moby, Metric, Ghostland Observatory, Karl Denson, and Wilco in the past. The Karl Denson and Wilco shows worked here, because there was very limited attendance, making them quiet, intimate events. For a truly intimate venue, I like the E-String. But for a bigger crowd, the Hard Rock Cafe on the Strip would be a better choice.

Q: negative

A: I would rather stab my eye with a dull piece of fortune cookie than to revisit this greasy, smoky chinese restaurant in sin city. It's a sin to charge $15.00 for pan fried noodles anywhere, especially if the server never returns to fill up your water. Plus you need a reservation for this nasty hole. Skip it, you'll thank your intestines.

Q: positive

A: Great rice bowls, fast service even when they are slammed, which is typical at lunchtime. Limited seating so plan for takeout. Also, there is a convenient small Asian grocery located next door.

Q: negative

A:
Came in one afternoon and decided to get the lunch special. I heard good things about this place so I was looking forward to trying the NY Style Pizza. Lunch Special was 2 slices of cheese pizza and a drink. Pretty good deal but the pizza left a lot to be desired. Pizza was wet and limp, almost undercooked. Just didn't stand up at all to NY pizza I've had in the past. Too bad. Not saying I wouldn't try it again but first impression was just not a good one.
