Opening night and some random observations & thoughts. Building- Art Deco, much marble and genuinely outstanding. Worth a visit even if you're not going to a show. Parking- plentiful outside plus garage. Bathrooms- more marble and 5 star. Bars - Only two downstairs plus one on fifth floor balcony area. They may have underestimated our thirst. Theatre- Every seat offers perfect views. Many ushers, no drinks inside. Sound- Perfection . No carpeting to enhance your experience, even in boxes. Opening show. Long! Almost 3 hours!! Broadway stars, big voices and handsome/pretty. Dancers- top notch. Stars! Jennifer Hudson- Beautiful, skinny, tall and WHAT a voice. Willy & Merle- old, gnarly and still cool! Martina McBride - HOT . Pat Monahan - Wifee says Hot. John Fogerty- Still rocking and FIVE songs! Carole King and Mavis Staples - Energetic and maybe biggest applause. Joshua Bell with his fiddle - Oh My. Host - Neil Patrick Harris- great at reading the auto cue . Vegas Elite- Mayor & Mr G. Best seats and seemed to enjoy, as they ought. George Maloof plus remarkably hot GF, good seats but left before the end. I saw you! Siegfried & Roy, I'm not sure of the name of the one that the tiger chewed up but after looking him over, I'm never getting a tiger. Everyone was here but far too many to list. Jennifer closed the show with a fine rendition of " Take Care Of This House" backed by an excellent choir. Appropriate and most fitting. The evening ended with champagne , big strawberries and cake pops. Apparently they spent $470 million on this place. Worth EVERY penny, Vegas should be proud.

This is technically an update to my last review, but since it got pushed into the CMYE section this is a new one. Anyhow, I went here about a week ago and decided what the hey, I'll try it out again since I'm in the area. I got a medium cookie dough/caramel ice cream made with almond milk, with soy whip and rainbow sprinkles. The total came out to $6. Six dollars! S-I-X D-O-L-L-A-R-S!!! The quality of the ice cream was a lot better than the CMYE fiasco, but it was still about the same and in no way worth $6, sorry. I can get an entire PINT of vegan cookie dough ice cream for $4. Oh and it's still certified organic, too. It still tasted good, but the price is outrageous. Also, I couldn't taste the caramel ice cream. It wasn't strong at all. The only flavor that did register was the cookie dough mix-in. I do however like the setup of the store better. They make you fill out their menu with markers which makes ordering a lot easier and the register is right in the front. Overall though, I don't think I would come back here anytime soon. It is an absolutely wonderful concept but the prices are out of control. When someone can make their own creation at home for almost half the price and is big enough for TWO people, why bother? The fact that it is made in the way it is still doesn't justify the extra price tag. You know why I still shell out $5 for a vegan red velvet cupcake at a certain cafe? Because you can't find it on store shelves (well, you can at Whole Foods now but that's beside the point) and it's difficult to make at home. Such is not the case with vegan ice cream. I came, I tried, my bank account cried.

It's a nice club, but definitely not worth the price of admission. I expected more. I guess if I was from a small town this would've been a hit. Prissy asian/white chicks and fairly ratchet black chicks...not much else...at least that was the scenery when I was there. Not worth a repeat. Bunk

Truly terrible service. They sold me a $300 plant that was infested with spider mites---something that would have been obvious to them, but not to a layman such as myself. The plant got sicker and sicker, and I took it back after three weeks. They promised that they would treat it and call me in two weeks. I waited over a month--still no call. So I tried contacting them. They were extremely difficult to get on the telephone. I eventually had to go there, at which point they told me that the plant had been stolen. Very strange. Then I was told that I'd need to come back to get refunded because neither of the owners knew how to give credit card refunds. So, I had to return again. The refund was granted. At this point, I would have quietly left the store, but the owner, Marcel, felt that it was necessary to say a bunch of abusive, xenophobic things to me. They sold me garbage, gave me the runaround, behaved dishonestly, and then acted like it was my fault. Customer service does not get any worse than that. Do not give them your business.
