Strip

I just recently went to Strip this past Wednesday and was very disappointed. I sat at the bar and was greeted with rolling of the eyes and a very bad attitude by the bartender Ashley( who by the way never even greeted herself). I could not ...

Sweet patio seating over looking the open area. Love the night time view of the surrounding sky scrapers. Conveniently located in the Atlantic Stati... more »

Food and service must not be their top priority. We were ignored from the hostesses (2 of them) until finally 1 of them says "oh! were you waiting for a table?" We were seated and the server seemed nice at first - he wasn't too happy that I did not order an alcoholic drink but my date did. I got the Sushi Sashimi for One and the Langosta Roll and my date had the 8 oz. Center Cut Filet w/mashed potatoes. The sushi was HORRIBLE. It tasted like buffet quality sushi. Even the sushi in Kroger is better quality than the fish I was served. The "Fresh" Salmon was nasty and tasted expired. The tekka maki wasn't even a complete ROLL. It seemed to be busting at the seams and had rice all over the outside seaweed. The Langosta Roll was okay - but I definitely have had better. The mango was not sweet and the avocado had no flavor. The filet and potatoes were alright but the price is understandable for the rent of this place! We asked for refills and an extra pair of chopsticks which did not turn up until 10 minutes later after I reminded our server again! The server shouldn't say "SURE!" to us then just walk past us multiple times without refilling our drinks. This did not occur on a bustling Friday or Saturday night - this was Sunday night @ 9 PM. There are much better steak and sushi restaurants in town. It seems that if you come to Strip, you are paying for the decor/atmosphere which isn't even impressive.

Of course the food is great as well, but we were impressed because the wait was not long and the food flavorful. The glass blocks and the bottle collection was a welcome decorating touch!

It was about 4 weeks ago when I went, but I went to Shout this past weekend to compare the two in the chain. I went w/ a small group (5 total) We made reservations & everyone was there on time, yet still had to wait about 30 minutes for a table. The NY Strip, to me, was overpriced by the ounce, so I paid the $5 difference for the Kanses Strip. I didnt like having to pay extra for the sides, so we all bought 2 & shared. I ordered my steak medium-well, but instead got it medium rare. My steak was cold before the waitress returned so I could send it back. The manager ended up bringing my steak back & did not leave until I gave him the thumbs up. (I appreciated that) So after we finished eating & our dishes were taken up, we sat & talked a while before going upstairs to the "club" while waiting on the check plus a friend to get there. Literally 5 minutes AFTER our friend got there, our waitress finally brought us our check & had the nerves to charge gratuity. (Gratuity's only for parties of 6+) Our reservations were for 5, only 5 ate & only 5 had a tab to pay. Where did she get 6 from if she never serviced our friend who only had been there for 5 minutes & AFTER we'd asked for the tab already?? So we refused to pay for a high gratuity which hardly matched the service, not to mention it was under false pretense. We didnt mind tipping, but I think she kind of assumed we weren't going to. When we'd asked her why so much, she came up w/ a weak excuse so we asked for a manager. I could tell she was upset because she developed an attitude. So this one guy came over, HE WAS NOT THE SAME GUY WHO CHECKED ON MY STEAK. I think she just grabbed some random guy. She ended up taking it off & ended up with a lower tip we probably would have given anyway. So we go upstairs, it wasn't crowded & the music was great, BUT no one was dancing. There was plenty of seats around, even at the bar, but the drinks, average cost, were weak! All in all, I loved the atmosphere the most!
