I came into this bookstore to pick up a book that they told me they had on the phone, but when I got here they did not have the book. They informed me that meant they had it online, even though I was asking if they had it in the store. No big deal, So I went to the cafe and got a drink to work on some homework. The girls behind the counter were audibly complaining about me ordering a drink and were making fun of me for asking if they accepted starbucks cards (since they serve starbucks drinks). Oh well, two stars because I have a soft spot for book stores and they have a great selection. Zero for the customer service.

Checked out Revolution's new menu last night. (I wish they would update their website, it still has the old menu.) I was glad to see expanded offerings with more apps, salads, sandwiches, and specialty pizzas to choose from. Two interesting things I'd like to try in the future were the avocado with eggs and the cilantro bean salad. There are lots of options for vegetarians and some vegan items. We had the pulled pork sliders app and they were so delicious. I really appreciate that they use local Grateful Growers pork and the sliders were topped with a purple slaw on soft sesame seed buns. We usually get the NoDa pizza, which I am thankful is on the new menu, but since we'd already had the sliders we went with the veggie Hippie and added cheese. It was great with hearty toppings. I have always thought their pizza was some of the best in Charlotte, but it is the more gourmet type of pizza. Large pizzas are around $22-$25. As others have mentioned, service can be so-so here. Our server was pleasant and tried to be attentive but he was very busy. I think they were understaffed with only 2-3 servers doing everything. I try to avoid going when I think it will be busy. Their beer offerings are fantastic and can't be beat by most places. They also have specials every weeknight including all drafts for $3 on Thursdays and they offer half-pints.

Very striking and beautifully designed. You must see the water fountains/show! Apparently at the top of the Eiffel Tower Paris, you can see a fantastic view of the fountains. First time in Vegas, but we didn't know that and wish we would have. Tip: Also, if you are in adjacent hotel/casinos, ask for a room overlooking the Bellagio Fountains. (We were stuck at the Flamingo and ended up with a room overlooking the interior area and construction site).

This at one time above average Casino Continues it's Downward Slide. From Dried Out Food, to unknown bits stewing all day without even a stir, to indifferent service and dowright Rude Management, just skip this place for the half dozen places within a block. I would also suggest playing at a less smokey place (somtimes the Cheap Cigar Smoke and poor filtration system will make you strip down in thhe Garage to wash you clothers and not stink up your house) and their weekend night crowd can quickly make you feel unsecure and heading for the exits. Talk about Winning at this Casino? I've foud out they generally take in over $ 100 per 30 minutes while playing just a little more than minimum. Play the Strip - the Cannery is a place for Lazy Locals that would rather lose their money with no real comps as opposed to driving another 10 Minutes. My neighbors that drive to the MGM may lose, however they get amazing Comps (Concerts-Meals-Rooms). For the same or less Number of points you can be a Diamond Member at Harrah's and get free rooms across the country, invitations, gaming junkets, etc. .
