A: I was very excited to eat here, seems like we heard about it 6 months ago or more. We were very disappointed with our visit. You order and pay at the counter and they bring your order to your table. Basically, we paid full service restaurant prices for take out food. We ordered the American salad and a 1/2 lb burger to share. I asked for the bacon and dressing on the side, but wanted the blue cheese crumbles on the salad. They forgot the blue cheese and hard boiled egg. I expected the salad to be bigger as it was $8.95. I could have made a better salad at home. Next-the burger. It was tasty, but nothing special. Not worth $5.99. The sweet potato fries were decent, but not included with the burger. The kids meal was small, just 2 small pieces of chicken (which they called chicken strips), a very small order of fries and a tiny cup of milk. Not even enough food for a toddler. When the manager asked how it was, we told him about the salad. He offered us a shake, which we declined. The meal cost us close to $30 for 1 kids meal, 1 drink, 1 burger, 1 salad and a side of fries. We won't be back.

A: Furniture is great and have used Pruitt's for over 10 years. We have purchased carpet twice from them and the first time we had shipping and production issues and had to be on cement floors for a month and finally I had to suggest us changing to a different color as it took that long for them to let me know what the issue was. We purchased carpet almost two years ago from them again on another home and I have had them out 3 times to re-stretch it, the manufacturer came out and said he was going to replace some of it as it seems it was a bad roll but that has never happened and no one ever follows-up I have to call every month to get an update. Now we are waiting on an independent inspector who was suppose to call us three weeks ago and still no word from them or Pruitts. Buy the furniture but not the carpet...

A: Am I the only one who thought Bacchanal was pronounced "back-anal"? Depending on whom you ask, "ba-ke-nal" can mean one of the following: (1) an orgy (2) a wild gathering involving excessive drinking & promiscuity (3) the worship of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine, ritual madness & ecstasy Or "a feast worthy of Gods," according to Caesars Palace. Despite the questionable meaning of the name, we decided to have a late lunch here after eating at Wicked Spoon the night before, to compare the two highest-rated buffets in Vegas. As of now, Bacchanal and Wicked Spoon are on the same tier of best buffets in Sin City and I honestly can't decide which is better. The wait was over an hour long. Bacchanal's decor and ambience is definitely more contemporary and modern than other Vegas buffets, and I believe overall caters more to "foodies" -- especially in terms of food presentation, which was bordering molecular gastronomy. The buffet spread was impressive and the broad selection consisted mostly of tapas, including pho, ramen, various cuisines, and plenty of desserts to choose from. As I'm not a fan of buffets (I prefer quality over quantity), I don't quite exactly remember what I ate -- just that I didn't hate anything and there were enough tasty things to eat to get full and feel fully satisfied. I do recall that although the desserts were very aesthetically pleasing, most tasted surprisingly underwhelming. Despite me not remembering any of the food I ate, mostly due to me not taking any photos, I'd still come back a second time to give it another try before passing final judgement.

A:
Restaurant Week gives me the opportunity to try places that I normally wouldn't be able to afford. It's low risk with a sometimes high reward. In this case that was true. I went for breakfast, so It may not be the most accurate representation of the food quality for dinner (it's really hard to make a terrible breakfast). I really enjoyed the personal french press coffee, juevos racheros were tasty, banana and marscopone french toast was as good as you think it was, croque madame was filling, and the service was exceptional. Because I went for breakfast on a weekday it was not busy and I got to sit outside. I actually went there twice in one week. The second time it was a perfect day and our server let us linger for about 2.5 hours and was the perfect amount of attentive without being overbearing. Two things I thought were underwhelming were the sugar doughnuts (just ok, nothing to write home about) and the bloody marys. Yes they make it at your table, but I don't buy into that hype. I don't care if you make it in front of me, in the bar, in the kitchen, or in the back alley if it isn't good. The bloody mary is underwhelming. I say skip the "fancy" at your table bloodies and get an extra entree to share with the table.
