My family of 6 dined at this restaurant before seeing LOVE, the Cirque show at the Mirage. We knew to expect a high bill come the end of dinner, as the most expensive thing on the item was in the $50 range, but the average around $30-$40/pp. While ordering, our waitress had no problems giving us attitude when we requested drawn butter instead of lemon butter with our fish - claiming that the kitchen didn't have any. I ordered the $9 bowl of minestrone to find that it was flavorless, agreed upon by the entire table who also tried it. And when sitting down, the waitress offered that night's specials. We did not ask the waitress for specials, and this wasn't the kind of place where she hands out a card - it was a list of verbal specials, one in which my brother was interested in - the kobe beef. At no point did the waitress offer the prices of the special, nor did we even think to ask for it as nothing was listed on the menu over $50. As the dinners themselves were tasteful, the bill was not. And neither were the practices of the restaurant. The kobe beef special rang in at a total of $140 a plate - for one dinner - nearly triple the price of the most expensive item on the menu. And at no point did anyone mention this to us upon ordering. So we spoke to the waitress about it - and she assured us that it was the policy of the restaurant to not tell it's patrons prices of the specials, the customer must ask for it - even though we didn't ask for the specials in the first place. And upon talking to the restaurant manager, he agreed it was restaurant policy not to tell the prices of the specials because, and I quote, "it may embarrass the customer if he/she can't afford it." They have no problems embarrasing you when the bill comes and you can't afford it then!
What a horrible restaurant - it's nothing fancy, small portions and incredibly overpriced. There are many other nice restaurants on the vegas strip.... do yourself a favor and find one of those!
Pros: Dinners themselves tasted good
Cons: rude waitress, horrible dining practices - deceiving
