I'd been waiting to go here following a recommendation. Got a reservation (same day on a weekend) and headed out there. We were seated promptly after a few minutes of wait and immediately attended to. Great staff and moody ambience! But the crowd can get really noisy and ruin it for you if you wanted a quiet date night :D We're vegetarians and I knew going in that my options would be limited. I honestly went to experience their famous milk bread and apple pie and was happy at the handful number of veg/vegan appetizers and sides that they had. We weren't crazy hungry so the crunchy potatoes, sweet pea soup and apple pie actually did make us full and happy. They did offer to make veg risotto if we needed it which was really sweet. However I still think they could include a few vegetarian entrée options in the menu since everything we tasted was so fabulous! I'll definitely go back just for the pie and the milk bread! Worth a visit on your next trip to Vegas!

The habitat is free to visit, when I went it wasn't crowded. It was a little underwhelming. I maybe spent 15 minutes there then left. The flamingo were huddled in a small corner and they had some other birds there. It cool for the kiddos but it's not something you spend the day doing.

This was honestly one of the best tours I’ve ever been on. We did a tour to Yosemite from San Francisco a few days after this one and it really paled in comparison to our experience with Grand Adventures. We did the Grand Canyon sunset tour in 2016 and again last year. The guides are great and it doesn’t feel awkward or commercial. The guides are all super down to earth. The van is very comfortable and the smaller group size makes for a much better experience. Because the group size is smaller, you can really get to know the other people in your tour during the trip. The breakfast at McDonald’s is such a great way to start the day. The sandwiches they pack for lunch are also amazing (I still think about them sometimes). The guides know exactly where to go to get the best photos and avoid the crowds. They’re really great with the schedule as well: we mentioned we hadn’t see the Las Vegas sign before and Daryl kindly offered to add an extra stop for us so we could get some photos! It was pretty cold when we went and I didn’t bring an extra jacket or gloves but they had an extra set in the van that I was able to borrow. The tour includes a lot so make sure you’re ready for a big day. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes since you also walk around the canyon. I cannot recommend Grand Adventures tours enough. I’m so glad they’ve also expanded to doing tours of Zion as that’s on our list of things to see!

Ordered Margarita pizza, it simply was bread with one piece of tomato, little to no flavor. Not recommended.

We stayed at Virgin Hotels and came here for breakfast. I got the Texas brisket and eggs. I forgot to take photo of my wife's dish: hash skillet. The brisket was tender and it was smothered in bbq sauce. If you like having a lot of sauce, then go for it. I like to taste the brisket so I removed some of the sauce. Under the eggs is a corn muffin. It has some bacon buts and jalapeño bits. It was good and wasn't too dry like other corn bread I've had. Our server was great. She was very efficient and super friendly. The place was bigger than we thought as it goes further in so front outside, it doesn't look that big. The decor is very relaxed and comforting. Definitely come here for a meal or two when you're staying here.

Attended 10pm show..it was a small intimate setting. Comedians were funny, if you need to kill a couple of hours I suggest it. 3 shows a day 6pm, 8pm & 10pm. Located at the Strat Hotel.

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I wanted to find a spot to watch some NCAA tournament games and expected this place to be bonkers (as all the sportbooks were.) While it was definitely busy, it wasn't packed to the gills. I will say, check their site for reservation information as during the weekend Sweet 16 games (and I'm assuming other big events) they require a $75/seat spend. I was also annoyed (but understanding) to find out their happy hour specials (one being all you can drink) aren't being offered during March Madness. Anyway, the bar seating is all first come, first serve and I got a spot in front of the massive TV screen in the back. When there's just one game on it's not the best seat. Serious "front row of movie theater" vibe but once they put on a split screen it was much better. The bar service was good and they had a bucket of domestic beers for $35. A draft of craft beer topped $14. Yow! I didn't have any food but the menu was full of options (bar food, pizza, salads, steak, etc etc) and what I saw come out all looked solid. They also do a very affordable breakfast. I'd definitely come back here especially during happy hour (apparently anytime other than March.)

Great park. Good people work here. We have seen many birds, rabbits, and tortoises. They have a very nice little museum inside. Easy parking. This park is great for a morning walk with your little ones.

Unfortunately, I had to get a room here for a 3 day conference I attended. We went with a suite because of the reasonable price. It was their last suite so they gave us an handicap accessible room, which was no problem but what got me was the horrible urine smell. They tried to update it with the decor but you can tell that it is an old room with a stale smell. Out of the 3 day stay, we stayed one night. I rather had driven over 40 miles round trip from my home, than to stay another night. Within that first and only night stay, I realized housekeeping cleaned but they also took my designer shades. I called front desk the moment I found out, they gave me the run around for about 2 weeks. They claim they were doing an investigation but the person that cleaned my suite was on vacation (I bet, with a new pair of shades). To make this story short, the company feels they are not liable. So before you get a room here, take all of valuables with you because they hire thieves!!

Our room was wonderful BUT getting to it was a chore! Also,they say pets are allowed but it's a 75$ pet fee non refundable.....that's more then tthe room was before resort fees! At check in I mentioned that my husband had a disability and needed the quickest way there. The person (Moses) who checked me in was plesent and gave me directions but no warning it was so far away from the desk or where luggage carts may be at. Overall it was nice but definitely not disability friendly.

Beautiful cafe, with fantastic lighting. Doesn'tmatter where you are seated the whole place is pretty bright. The food portions look small but they are very fulfilling. The wait time for a table estimated about 30-45minutes but overall worth it.

Blue18 left a 4 star review for Ellis Island BBQ

2023-10-23 23:13:02

I have been going to Ellis Island including the Barbecue place off and on for about 5 years. I usually go about once every 6 months. It is VERY consistent. Food is good, relatively inexpensive for a tourist spot. About $20 a person. It's a solid 4 stars, but not a 5 star for me. I never understood why there are no starches offered such as potatoes or potato salad. The meal comes with your protein (ribs or chicken), baked beans, coleslaw, garlic bread, 2 pieces of corn. Service the glasses are big but yet I was not offered a refill for my soda, so only 4 stars on the service. (Yes it was empty - not trying to be difficult). The half a chicken was the smallest chicken I've seen in my life (but still enough for me). Overall Recommended.

Old fashioned - 5/10; bitter taste. My husband liked the bitter, me not so much. Calamari-10/10. The sauce was spicy and amazing. The Calamari was some of the best I've had. Margherita pizza- 9/10. Flavor, cheese, sauce ratio was great. Wish there was more basil...
