Restaurants to AVOID in Las Vegas
1. Grand Lux Cafe, The Venetian. Always crowded and s l o w service. Eat at the uncrowded Canyon Ranch instead.
2. Coffee shop at the Palms. Wonderfully redecorated with lots of plasma TVs, but surly service. 3. Ditto for the American Cafe at NYNY. |

Orleans Buffet.

Never had a problem with the Orleans buffet-for the price it's fine and service is OK.........Now the cafe in the Orleans on the other hand surly service (more than a couple of times), food with hair in it-sent back and returned with MORE hair-(once-nothing will get me to eat in there now) Nasty.

Hey thanks! This couples well with my thread from a few days ago, about recommendations. I didn't think to ask recommendations on what to avoid! :D

Blondie's Sports Bar in Desert Passage. Lousy selection of small portions of mediocre food brought to you by hot-but-indifferent-or-downright-hostile waitresses.

Well, I used to like this hotel. I've had widely varying experiences in the last two visits, but there is some residual affection from years past, when it was IMO pleasant. On this past visit, at the breakfast buffet, all the glasses put out in racks by the juice/soft drink dispensers had greasy smudges on them and many had food particles still under the rim. I'm not talking about a fingerprint here or there. I'm talking about broad streaks of thick greasiness. Every single glass that I checked was dirty. When I saw the greasiness on the sides of the glasses and the food particles under the rim of the glasses, and that every glass that I had checked had the problem, I mentioned to a busboy going by that all the glasses were dirty, and he, um, gave me a dirty look and said, "I know." Finally I found a stack of styrofoam cups and poured juice into a styrofoam cup. The "juice" was almost the color of water, but I found a use for it anyway. Back at the table, I used the watery juice (which looked like water except somewhat discolored) not to drink but to wipe my fork. Surprisingly, none of the other diners appeared to notice the greasy glasses. There were even some business types, or at least well-dressed middle-class people, there, taking the glasses without noticing. If you "dine" here, be prepared to wipe the cutlery--and use the styrofoam cups. (About the sanitation of the food itself, who can say? Probably much better, y'know. :rolleyes: ) I heard one complaint days later, as we waited for a plan home, that the food at the CC buffet was cold. I suppose it was, but that is a much lesser complaint, IMO. "The Circus-Circus is what the whole hep world would be doing Saturday night if the Nazis had won the war. This is the sixth Reich. The ground floor is full of gambling tables, like all the other casinos . . . but the place is about four stories high, in the style of a circus tent, and all manner of strange County-Fair/Polish Carnival madness is going on up in this space." --Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas |
Frontier buffet, even for free.
