Q: I was so excited to be in Vegas again and kept thinking about the delicious 25 cent wings at the Hooters Hotel. I brought my friends over and was confused because 1) there was no giant wait time and 2) Dan Marino's was no longer called Dan Marino's, it was now a "Mad Onion" Dan Marino's is now closed. My beloved Vegas 25 cent wings are gone. =(. All I have left in vegas is the novelty of cheap steak and eggs.

Q: I choose to stay at treasure island because of their good prices and a history of winning in their casino. I didn't have time to gamble this trip so I can't attest if that's true. We arrived around 10:30 to check in and the escalator down to the Lobby from self parking was broken. The elevator was around the corner or you could take stairs. There was no line to check in but the girls working the desk were the most boring, in happy I've ever seen in Vegas. We were informed our reserved king room was not available but we could do two queens and move to the king the next day. We opted to stay in the two queens so we didn't have to repack. After reading the previous reviews of being charged for the room twice I brought cash to pay for the room. The lady asked for the booking card and proceeded to charge the balance due on my card. I stopped her and asked if we could pay cash. She looked at me with attitude sighed and said "you don't want it on the card?" I said no and we finished the transaction she handed us the room keys and didn't tell us about any of the coupons, where room was located or what our room number was. I had to ask her how to get there and she said around the corner. Our room was non smoking but you could smell the cigarets first thing walking in. The tv sucked, the iron didn't work, moths were flying in from the air vent but everything else was decent. The in room fridge and safe were nice to have. Upon getting ready the first night my shirt got wet from the countertop and there have been some residual clean agent in the counter and it left a bleach stain on my shirt. The crowd in the casino consist of older people, cheap tourist and hookers. The tram to the mirage was broken for our entire stay from Thursday through Monday. Not a big variety of food locations especially for later hours although the 24 Starbucks is nice to have so close.

Q: When my boyfriend and I were down with the flu, we ordered some food here through Eat24. I got a chicken noodle soup and he got the seafood calzone. When I unpacked the food and tried a sip of my soup, I found that it was cold and had bubbles in it, as if there was soap in it. I couldn't really taste anything, but my boyfriend said it smelled like dishwater. To say the least, I was disappointed in my soup. When my boyfriend cut into his calzone, he said the cheese was barely melted. We thought it was undercooked and touched the outside. It was cold, as if it was sitting out in the open for a long time. He tried to take a bite, but the dough was barely even cooked and the contents of the seafood calzone was cold and tasted sour. This was our first time ordering from here and it was such a sad experience to have, since our food was inedible. I heard this place was good and had great calzones and tasty soup, but what we received was the complete opposite from the praise I've heard about this place.

Q: I'm generally not a steak person. I have been to some nice steakhouses but I just can't manage to really get into it. As such, STK was never high on my list of places to eat in Vegas. I ended up going for a business dinner and was generally pleased, even for my steak-averse palate. Pros *The appetizers were amazing. Hands down. Everything we ordered was fantastic and they actually gave us the appropriate number of items based on the people at the table (might have been coincidence but I'll give them the point) *The music selection was late 90's and early 2000's that reminded me of days gone by. It was not what you normally hear at a club or a restaurant so it was a fun change of pace *The drinks were fantastic and we were always asked about a fresh one before our glasses were empty *The steak! I know! I said it. It was a pretty good steak. I only had a few bites of someone else's but it was the complete opposite of where my mind goes when I think about steak. So far this review has been high-fives and kudos. But that two star rating up there, that wasn't a mistake. Every cloud has its silver lining, and at STK there were plenty of dark clouds to go with those small positive notes. Cons *The volume of the music is insane. It started out manageable but we were basically shouting at each other by the time we left *The drink I ordered was $18, and that seemed to be about average *The sides were hit or miss. Asparagus was cold but the truffle fries were like pillows of potatoey goodness. The gratin was basically raw potatoes but the mushroom pot pie was flavorful, hot, and exotic tasting *The service. Our waiter was great. Friendly, outgoing, ready to make recommendations. Unfortunately, after he took our order he was gone and never to be seen again. Instead we ended up with a loitering busser. As I mentioned earlier, this was a business dinner. We were there to eat, of course, but we were also talking and enjoying our evening. I guess we took too long to finish our appetizers because the server asked us no less than three times if he could clear anything away. Every time we said no and he just slipped to the side and waited there. It was like he was counting mississippi's in his head until he could ask us again. So we've finished our entrees. We ordered a shared dessert and coffee. We're winding our evening down when the manager comes over to the table. I assumed that he was there to just say thank you since I'm sure our bill was near the $1000 mark for the evening. Turns out he was basically kicking us out of our seat. He said the restaurant was at capacity and he wanted to buy us a drink at the bar so we could free up the table. I'm sure there are people in Vegas who wish that their restaurants could be so full at 8pm on a weeknight that they are at capacity, but I can't tolerate being rushed from our table just because other people want to sit down. I've waited at restaurants for over an hour because people weren't getting up and leaving, and that's just the way it goes. If you dont like the wait time you go elsewhere. It was really poor form that the manager asked us to vacate the table (after the check had been paid, mind you). Overall I am disappointed with STK. I went into the experience expecting stellar service and mediocre food. Turns out the food was the surprise winner and the service was just leaving much to be desired.
