Problem: This is my favorite restaurant here for vietnamese-french sandwiches. I like # 116- charbroiled chicken sandwich for $3.99. It is the perfect blend of east meets west- the fresh baked french bread, the meat, the crunchy asian blend of veggies: cilantro, long strips of carrot and jicama, and sauce-mmmmmmmmmm. Yes, it's my fave asian sandwich in LV. (Yeah, I must be one of the few reviewers with positive things to say.) My husband prefers the stir-fry dishes and the spring rolls- pretty good and reasonable too. I haven't had a bad experience here ever in regards to the food, other than the service was ok, a little rushed. Also available are boba drinks. We took a friend here and the line to get seated was almost out the door (tells you how popular this place is). Service was alright, better when it's not so busy. If you don't want to wait, place your order for take-out or try to get there early if it's around the holidays. Participates in the www.restaurant.com certificates program. I feel a craving building up- looks like a visit in the near future is in order.

Problem: The buffet is of a good size, and it does appear to be kept relatively fresh, but I'm going to have to say that the quality is... questionable. I'm not trying to say that the food is undercooked or anything along those lines. Just that when you bite into a piece of teriyaki chicken on a stick, it should generally taste like chicken (or at least a meat that tastes like chicken). Doing so here tasted like, well, something else. In fact, just about everything here tasted like something else. Again, it wasn't that the food was bad or out-of-date or anything. It is just that everything - meat, vegetables and even sauces - didn't taste quite right. It's quite possible that the taste buds in my mouth were off or something, but a bite a short while later at the bakery was just fine. So my money is on the Lotus Buffet. You can draw your own conclusions.

Problem: I can sum up this place in one word...WOW! We came here for a rehearsal dinner prior to a wedding so the menu was picked out for us. Every single thing we tried was like heaven on a plate. We had the lamb cigars & tzatziki sauce, Kennebec Salt & Pepper fries, and Portobello Fries & Herb Aioli for starters. Absolutely delicious! I highly recommend the Portobello Fries...even if you are not a mushroom fan, these simply melt in your mouth. For the main meal, we had the Roasted Chicken and Tomahawk Chop. WOW WOW WOW...you might think chicken is boring, but without trying to sound cliche, this was literally the most delicious piece of chicken I have ever had. The Tomahawk Chop looked very rare, but it was sooooo tender and delicious. Please do not eat this with steak sauce...it is meant to be enjoyed as is! The only disappointment was the dessert. While it wasn't bad (how can dessert be bad??), it just didn't have that WOW factor. But hey, this is a chophouse...so enjoy the meat! One of the best meals I've ever had. If I was going to die tomorrow, I would want my last meal to come from Echo & Rig.

Problem: I have been to this restaurant 3 times, and I will keep on coming back. I had a chicken soup was good, arroz chaufa good too, and a lomo saltado ( my favorite dish there so far!)The staff is nice and I have no complaints. They do take a little longer when is busy, but that is expected as people eat at restaurants they like. I never waited too long for my food though. Overall, I like the food and the staff so I give it four stars. Also, I plan on bringing my peruvian family from out of town to this restaurant!
