Horrible waiter and food for the money

by bears30 at Citysearch

Overpriced for what you get, food and service. Ordered soups, appetizers and a main course and our clueless waiter, Dave, brought out a dessert fondu for our appetizer. He said that is what we ordered for our appetizer. What??? First, who orders a dessert fondu before their steak dinner, second, we never saw a desset menu, so how would we know what was on it? The waiter forgot drinks, couldn't split checks properly, the crab cakes were bland and the filets were over cooked. The view was the only good thing about the place.

• Pros: Views
• Cons: waiter, food

I enjoyed it!

I didn't know much about the restaurant beforehand. I had won it in a contest. I had dinner with a Chippendale from the show at the RIO. In case you are curious I won it on C-Squad i-squad.c-m/link/link/ MzgwMzkzfDI1OA== The location was picked by the company. I have to say that the cocktail I had was delicious. It was like a mojito. I wish I could remember the name of it but it had raspberries and mint in it. I enjoyed the food and especially the view. I had stayed at the RIO before and had been there many times to see the Chippendales perform there but had never eaten there. I would recommend it to any one for special occasions such as my dream date with a Chippendale but the food and service was worth the price even if I didn't have to pay (this time.) Thanks Chippendales!

big disappointment

by klacs at Citysearch

Maybe the good chefs had the night off on my birthday, Dec 23, but the food was definitely below par. Their specialty is steak and mine was overdone (I ordered rare), not especially tasty, and not worth the price. I ordered the mushroom combination and it was also so overcooked they could have come from a can! My brother went with a seafood plate which was better but not spectacular. The best part of the meal was a seafood hush puppy, though it was a bit greasy for a quality restaurant. The service was good but I would skip the restaurant next time and just enjoy the Voodoo Lounge instead..it was excellent fun for the outside couches and view, great drinks, and talented bartenders.

Great view of Vegas

A little bit pricey, but the food is very good. The service was great. You may want to avoid eating there too early for dinner, as the sun is bright and depending on where you sit, could be directly in your eyes.

Also, don't forget to get your hand stamped so that you can skip paying the cover charge if you want to head back to the lounge after watching Chippendales or hanging around the casino for a bit. The restaurant turns into a really fun lounge/bar at night. The music is good and people tend to make their own dance floor outside.

Who do, I do

We shared the coconut (4) shrimp with a tasty citrus Malibu rum sauce and sunflower sprouts appetizer. Our entrees were pan roasted Chilean sea bass wrapped in bacon accompanied by a fingerling potato, 2 Jonah crab claws and a baked tomato in a white wine sauce. What the menu failed to mention is the sea bass was served on a bed of mashed potatoes. We then followed the stairway up to the patio of the Voo Doo Lounge and enjoyed the incredible views on a clear and beautiful evening.
