Q: My wife and I like to go to Las Vegas with a fair degree of regularity. We've been known to occasionally ingest alcoholic beverages there. The thing about Bond is ....... It seems to attract a higher class of patron than most of the other bars along South Las Vegas Blvd. The clientele did not seem to include crazed hillbillys on their first frolic outside their sister/cousin/daughter's neighborhood. To the contrary ... The crowd was rather hip & sophisticated the nights we were there. The folks inhabiting Bond were more interested in drinking tasty, expensive drinks, looking at all the beautiful people and being considered one of the beautiful people. The lights, music, bartenders, servers and ambience were all top-notch. The drinks were Delicious and Strong! Did I mention they were also expensive? Yet they were so damn good! Truth is, we did not feel like we were screwed on the prices of the drinks. We really got what we paid for ... And we found ourselves coming back to Bond, even after checking out the other so called hot bars.

Q: We return two years later and left with disappointment. Here's what goes wrong, 1. We booked a room with balcony this time, upon check-in, Tina at the front desk gave us room number 05607 in tower 1. As we get into our room we found out that instead of the jet SPA bathtub that we had last time, there's only a stand up shower. We thought this is due to the different room set up for the balcony room, but not until when we check out, we finally realized we're given a accessible room for the disable !! We never made such request and I'm in my late 20s, I have no idea why Tina would gave us such room. Here is what it says on their official site: "Your Balcony Deluxe Suite experience includes: Whirlpool spa tub and separate shower" In another word, they breach the contract and fail to offer what's promised. 2. A lots of stuff are missing from the kitchenette, there's no tableware, not knife, no wine glass, no pot, no frying pan, no nothing. Only thing left was some appliances and paper towel. I wonder if they got robbed by the last guest. 3. Like last time, we received $50 dining credit, but this time we could only spent it in The Signature or the MGM Grand, instead of restaurants at all other hotels under the MGM Resorts, so there's a lot less to choose from. Everything else was still great, free valet is still fast and convenient, room is still clean and well maintained. However, the Signature is no longer our first choice.

Q: I recently went into 4 Paws Holistic looking for Orijen. The shop near me was bought by Petco and now carries only the same cheap to at-best-midgrade foods as PetSmart. The person I spoke to was very helpful. He suggested that I consider Acana - a lower priced food made by the same company as Orijen - though they carry both. His reasoning was very sound for that switch, which would save me money in the end without compromising quality. We also discussed raw diets as my dogs and cats are primarily raw fed (which is why the slightly lower protein content in Acana is fine). I mentioned what they eat now and we discussed various raw diets with their pros/cons. He gave me a sample chub of a raw diet they carry that he felt was comparable to what they currently eat. No hard sell, just a sample to see how my pets like it. Because I have young, large breed dogs we discussed joint care and he gave me some wonderful and in-depth advice about which forms of glucosamine and chondroitin seem to yield better results. Again no hard-sell, actually no sell at all. Just information for if/when it becomes a consideration as they age. I was very impressed with the time they took with me, even giving information on items I would not be buying any time soon. All in all I have found a new place to buy my pets' food.

Q: This Review is for New Years only, although i wont be going back to the bar due to the extreme rudeness of the staff, guy with the beard is the worse bartender i have ever come across, avoid at all costs. What can i say we had VIP tickets but got upcharged on everything (including redbull), any decent drinks ran out early on, there were no mixers, the event was completely oversold so you couldn't dance, forget getting to a bathroom, DJ was either drunk or not very good as he kept screwing up oh and this bar uses the same DJ for every event. I paid for VIP with Topshelf Liquor, got bottom shelf awful service, and abuse from the bar staff, that tells you everything you need to know about his venue, oh and the champagne toast we were promised also never happened.
