Our first 25 minutes was great, had a “stand in” waiter who was extremely attentive and we got drinks and two rounds of small plates (brunch) during this time. The following hour was painful, I wish our “stand in” waiter had continued to serve us instead of the regular waiter. We went the next 30 minutes without any drinks, 45 minutes without any food. This defeated the entire purpose of bottomless small plates and drinks for brunch. When we finally received what ended up being our last round of small plates (we had very little food in total, really), they didn’t give us our entire order (3 small plates each), and one of our small plates was cold when it shouldn’t have been, like it had just been sitting for 30+ minutes. Honestly, the first 25 minutes was gold star Vegas worthy. The remainder of the time felt like we were being held hostage, ignored completely, like we’d been played. We did get one of our brunch costs comped after speaking with a manager (I think I’ve needed to speak with a manager maybe 3 times in my entire life), but all in all I’d never return. Maybe it was a staffing issue? Maybe the staff needs to be trained to be more communicative and attentive? We live here in Vegas and will not be brining guests, will steer people away from the restaurant.

This place has fallen off. After a good experience a couple of years ago, returned and was highly disappointed. Service, food, and ambiance all bad. Took 45 minutes for drinks to arrive. Food was forgotten and came out wrong. Some dishes had clearly been sitting under the heat lamp for way too long. Menu changes were not an improvement. In the past, dining room had a view of the pool. Now some sort of wall obstructs the view and makes you feel trapped. Won’t be back.

The food was delicious- I had the tacos Al pastor with pineapple salsa & my husband had the poblano chicken enchiladas. My Jamaica mule cocktail (mixed with a hibiscus ginger beer)was refreshing with just the right amount of alcohol.
