Only thing not my favorite was the smoke infiltrating from the casino….I just wish there would be no smoking allowed anywhere in California including Casinos. Other than that, it’s wonderful!!!

We were sat down at 6:15, party of 7. Waitress came after sitting for 10 minutes with no water. Brought us water and then took our order after about the 20 minutes mark. We got our appetizer after another 25-30 minutes which was oysters and a bread platter. Our salads show up shortly after that. Meanwhile our waitress has literally not been by the table since we ordered. Here comes our dinners and sides, waitress finally comes as one of our steaks were cooked wrong. My wife’s sea bass was absolutely terrible, and that was one of the best things on the menu. We get the oh we have a new head chef statement quite frequently and to be honest it’s no longer an excuse. Our waitress then showed up with our check and then 15 minutes later came to run my card. We left the restaurant at 8:20pm and mind you they were far from busy. I got the opportunity to order 1 drink and then my waitress never came back, never once asked how any of my food was, never asked if i needed a refill or showed any reason to care about the people who she’s waiting on. Sorry but you guys need some serious help. This was a 600 dollar dinner and we would have gotten served better at Applebees.
