Bougainvillea is terrible...

by KaotikDreamer633

I have never had a decent meal there, even while drunk! Their steaks taste like they're

boiled and then thrown on the grill for a bit. The burgers have no taste, the prime rib tastes

like a tough, boiled, tasteless piece of meat. The one redeeming factor is the desserts.

The chocolate cake is great, I suppose its not made on premises! The staff is quite slow

and they constantly stare at the table looking for a tip.

Living here in Vegas for a almost a year and never had been

there to eat.

We were going for the steak at Ellis Island Casino;but the kitchen was short order only on monday...I forgot.{by the way $7 for a steak,baked potato,salad,bread and a microbrewery beer or microbrewed rootbeer}

So we..ok I said to my wife let's try that special $9.99 for 1lb steak dinner says it comes with a beer too!!......well first the waiter tells us before we even ask..."no substitutions on the

beer"...then no salad ...that's extra....no bread...that's extra.

but to top it off a burned piece of sinewy maybe 7-8 oz of who knows what cut.My wife thought she would be safe ordering

the teriyaki bowl....well that came with frozen veges...how nice!!!bahhh!!!and tasted like old socks...and with bone fragments in it....the place sucks....waiter never asked how everything was at alll....never came to check on us....he gave the check to my wife ..even though I had done the ordering...

overall on scale from 1 to 10 a 1 and the one is because the beer was a cold coors..in a glass...whopeee!!!

lousy service....lousy food

Avoid at all costs

Hotel lived up to its name. Incredibly dark and dreary. The world's most inept burglar could get into hallways from outside or from casino (no security). Room was dingy, bathroom tiny. PLUS we came back to the room late to discover there had been no maid service. NONE. We called the front desk to complain -- they said housekeeping was gone for the night but they would send up more towels. About 15 minutes later, a woman arrived with ONE towel. We asked for more towels but she did not speak a word of

English. Upon checkout we asked they make an adjustment on the bill for all the trouble we had -- and they said we had gotten a good rate so don't complain about it. Terrible's is truly TERRIBLE.

• Pros: Cheap price
• Cons: Horrible and snotty service, terrible security
