In Short
Marino's is the swankiest restaurant at Hooters, but its décor and menu won't intimidate the sports nuts and couples who dine there. The exhibition kitchen, dark woods and exposed stonework are classy, but there's also a counter vending collectible footballs and helmets. The menu starts with pub-style appetizers such Maryland crab cakes, Buffalo chicken fingers and Thai chicken wraps. Other options range from sandwiches and salads to bacon-wrapped meatloaf, filet mignon and nut-crusted mahi-mahi.

Dan Marino was a great quarterback but that doesn't translate into success for this restaurant. The service was the worst I have ever had. Our waiter barely spoke English and was less then enjoyable. The ice water was undrinkable even with lemon squeezed in it. I ordered a BLT which I would think is impossible to mess up and it came out with a gnat on the lettuce. The manager seemed annoyed to help me resolve this problem. When my food was re-made it came back with no fries and there was guacamole all over the sandwich from the knife that was used to cut it in half. I could not eat anything there after this. Another member of our party ordered a caesar salad with chicken which came out to our table with no chicken. Then the chicken came out after we notified our waiter of the problem and the chicken was obviously burnt and overcooked. Gratuity was also included at 18% for our party of 6 which was not even close to being deserved by our waiter. I had to pay for our dinner and then go out to eat somewhere else. This is by far the worst dining experience I have ever had and I will never set foot in that restaurant again.

The breakfast "buffet" was very average; it was a tiny spread and for $10/head it really isn't worth it. That said, the food was fresh and hot, so it isn't terrible, just not memorable. It had scrambled eggs only (but they were nice), fatty sausages and bacon, and waffles, which was all the hot food they offered. Fruit platters were very nice; no pancakes or crepes; no toast or spreads; no real attention to detail. Service was okay; not bad. Vegas has plenty of buffets (it seems every hotel has one) and since you can often get 1/2 price tickets at the vendors on the strip, I would give this a miss.

First, the menu on the website was not the same as the menu we had to choose from. They offered all you can eat baby back ribs with 2 sides. These were good, but it seemed that additional ribs were not as high quality as the first rack. The breakfast buffet was small but the food was good. Not the dining experience we expected, but the food wasn't too bad.
