On May 16, 2008 we had dinner at Onda in the Mirage Hotel prior to attending the ?Love? show. It was probably one of the WORST dining experience we?ve ever had. The lady seating us put us next to a serving station. When we commented that it was not a table we liked she insisted that it would be fine and preceded to seat us anyway with an attitude that made us feel that we better take the table or leave. Since it was a very busy night in the hotel we thought we better take the table. Regularly throughout the meal wait staff and the bus boy would open a dishrack next to one of our chairs to place food or dirty dishes on, requiring us to lean sideways or get struck in the head. As for the food, it was pretty horrible. A dish of some find of tapinade was put on the table along with bread. This was not at all bad, but the entrees were grim. We had a veal picatta which was in some kind of a tasteless cream sauce, and a veal parmesan which was not quite as bad, but the veal in both dishes required a sharp steak knife to deal with. Quite an amateurish effort considering the price. We passed on dessert. We just wanted to get out of the place.
We have eaten in several upscale Las Vegas restaurants in the past few days, and this one was by far the bottom of the barrel. For the price there are numerous better dining options in Las Vegas. STAY AWAY!!!
