"Hmm. Something was off at this recent dining event. I brought my mother niece to celebrate my birthday. I made my reservation about a month ½ in advance and requested center seating and a seasoned server. At an early check in, the male manager looked over the notes but did not enthusiastically greet us or mention my birthday “Celebrating a birthday folks? Welcome,” etc.., etc..” Okay, whatever, older Vegas managers aren’t the most energetic greeters. Moving right along. The waitress who seems perhaps a better fit for Olive Garden per her removed demeanor attempted to seat us against a wall with no other patrons in close proximity. Yes please seat me against a wall for my birthday so we can be lonely on this special day. All I got was “We can’t guarantee a seat” which according to other reviews is not the case. You map out your reservations ahead of time and keep a few floats open. I advised we would wait, then another minutes or so to be seated. You should train your hostess to Maitre’D so the flow can happen vs random seating. The server jumped into the menu wno introduction. He was pleasant and quick and attentive enough but seemed to be drowning in tables receipts quite literally. The food itself was flavorful, and fresh. No complaints there, worth the prices in my opinion. After desserts I told the waiter “Thank you for making my birthday great.” He said “Oh!” and had no idea. He came out with a birthday plate and a small cookie assortment—after the fact. This restaurant has all of the ambience and sensuality to really be the hidden gem it once was. Tasteful music, thoughtful dining layout wprivate rooms, a good seemingly classy and wellheeled crowd, and a tasty menu that can tickle your appetite. A restaurant of this caliber should have a smooth operation and a nice flow that the conductor ensures is in rhythm. The steps of service need that proverbial Might be some months before I go back as we all expect more of a AAA rated place"
