Grand Lux Cafe is an upscale Cheesecake Factory. They are owned by the same company so the two restaurants are very similar.
Their food is pretty standard, decent quality but nothing amazing. They have huge portions for the prices that they charge, and the service is decent too.
Grand Lux was convenient and right inside our hotel, so we went twice. I had an omelet with a side of hash browns that was pretty good and then we went back after clubbing for zen noodles. Chicken broth with rice noodles after a night of drinking? It's not pho but it will have to do. Yummy!
Can we say OVER SERVICED ?
Yes this is a simple cafe, but really do you want a server breathing down your neck while you are having a burger ?
the food was good, large healthy servings. ..a little on the expensive side
Came for lunch and was unimpressed. Looked nice at first, until it took half an hour for any food to arrive. Strongly disapprove of the pricing too - $5.95 for a little wine glass of orange juice? Why don't you just go club a baby seal while you're at it.
I got the lunch salmon - grilled salmon served on a bed of mashed potatoes surrounded by some sad looking string beans. Not much to get excited about - everything was average except for price and how long it took to cook.
Thank you Yelpers for this culinary treat in the middle of the night! I didn't even know this place is a sister restaurant of the "cheesecake factory" chain. If cheesecake factory tasted this good, I'd go more often.
My fiance and I went exactly at Friday 12:01am.
Pros: A sign of a healthy and good restaurant are full tables even at midnight. After getting of the plane starving for something good, my fiance told me Yelpers recommend this place. We were staying at the Treasure Island and this restaurant was located inside the Venetian across the street.
I loved our waiter Abraham. He made us feel welcome, recommended some great dishes for us to try, and even went in the back to ask the chef the secret to preparing those wonderful mashed potatoes spring rolls! (I'm not imparting the secret, you'll just have to go ask the restaurant yourselves).
We tried the aforementioned mashed potatoes spring rolls, their flautas, and an order of their prime rib sloppy joes.
Everything was delicious! I was all rejuvenated and ready to go back out there and gamble some more!
Cons: So many choices, such a small stomach. I couldn't have thought of anything wrong with the meal.
Bottom line: Next time I go back to Vegas and am craving a midnight meal, I'll so go back to the Grand Lux!
This is the cafe next door to the Grand Lux. The service is pretty crappy but the food is good. They have the best Creme Brulee and their sandwiches are very good. Their choc chip cookies are not bad either. Since our food was free, it was great! Most importantly they are really well priced items for the strip and a great place to grab some food before you head out of town.
Didnt have my avacado rolls like Cheesecake factory so I was disappointed, too dark in the… Read more »
Great place for a casual lunch. Not a good choice for dinner, in my opinion.
Lots to choose from on the menu, friendly service, big portions.
Think "Cheesecake Factory".
Ever since they opened another location in the Palazzo, the wait for a table here has been greatly reduced.
Looking for a place to grab a bite in the Hotel, and this place looked like it could handle the party of six (6) without much trouble. They have a huge menu, just like the Cheesecake Factory, tons of stuff to order.
The other five (5) ordered these spicy bloody marys, man they tasted great. Hot and peppery, with pickled asparagus on top. After taking a taste of the g/f's (can't use her name) (actually don't know why I can't) I wished I had ordered one too. But I went with the old standby, ice tea, boring but thirst quenching.
Two in the party went for the breakfast sandwich, it was stuffed with ham,bacon,scrambled eggs, cheese on thick cut toasted bread. They devoured them like finger food. I had the Manhattan salad with shrimp and chicken. It looked better then it tasted. I'm not sure what it was missing but I wouldn't order it again.
Service was good, food was hot and fresh, and they refilled my ice tea several times without asking for it. That's always a plus for me, I love to get bloated on ice tea while I eat.

My friends and I visited Grand Lux twice during our weekend trip to Vegas because we were staying at the Palazzo. Funny, because we would never think to go to the LA location. But my experience here may have changed my mind.
Both times we were lucky enough to be able to dine 'al fresco' - meaning a gorgeous view of the casino. But hey it still felt cool!
The first trip was a woozy breakfast after our first night out. We shared a bruschetta style breakfast dish and a couple of other egg dishes. I love that they serve real hash browns instead of home fries - so much more satisfying! The service was awesome, a cute little Asian man (I can say that because I'm Asian and he reminded me of my dad) who was totally attentive and fine with bringing us extra place settings and plates so that we could share.
The second trip was late at night after a trip to XS. This was an entirely different kind of meal, a ravenously hungry, get me some comfort food now before I fall asleep at the table kind of meal. One of my friends actually may have nodded off while waiting for our food. Again, we shared, this time the zen noodles, a yummy asian noodle soup with a lemongrass broth, and the pasta carbonara, THE BEST pasta carbonara I have ever had. The service again was commendable, considering it was about 2 in the morning and the place was filled with obnoxious patrons. The waiter was super nice and even reassured us when a loud alarm went off in the casino and we got nervous.
Perhaps my two favorite meals of the trip - a pleasant surprise!

I've been traveling to LV with the same group of guys a couple times each year for the last 10 years or so. The last five we almost always stay at the Venetian and the Grand Lux Cafe has become our favorite place to eat.
Mind you, we in no way ignore all the great steak house near the strip or in downtown, but for some reason we love this place. On one 3-day trip, we ate their six times. One day, we ate every meal there!
What amkes this place so great? Its variety and the quality of the food. But there's a clincher for us. We always choose to dine in the patio area that overlooks the pathway between the casino and the elevators to the rooms and the stairways from the ballrooms because all the pretty gals in their evening dresses walk by past us. Good food, good friends and lovely ladies. What else could you ask for?!
Regarding the food, GLC makes great burgers, awesome pasta and delicious NY cheesecake. One of my friends loves the jambalaya and another likes the orange chicken. Breakfasts are good as well, and their salads are tasty and bountiful. The iced teas are enormous. They taste unlike any other iced tea I've had and at first I didn't like them, but they've grown on me.
The staff is always friendly and obviously have eaten all the dishes because they never lack for enthusiastic recommendations when we ask.
The portions are quite large, maybe not Claim Jumpers huge, but still big enough to illicit groans from some in our group that they need to go up to the room and lie down. It's also a good thing the restrooms are directly across from the the restaurant. If you need to make room for desert you can just hop the fence and be back right as it's being served.
If you ever stay at the Venetian give Grand Lux a try. Sometimes the lines are long, but they move pretty quickly. Sit in the patio, relax and enjoy the scenery.
Yum yum yum!
We wanted to eat dinner and we were at the Venetian after going to Tao beach.
The security guards said that there was something for everyone here and it was great food!
I love the cheesecake factory and I love this place. The chicken Madeira was HUGE and delicious. A wonderful experience. The service did take a long time though. Everyone had more than enough food and it was definitely worth the price, you pay for the quality of the food and you definitely get what you pay for.
I enjoyed the food here. The menu was pretty wide-ranging, although not quite as unique as I might hope. The prices were reasonable (for Vegas) and the service was some of the best I experienced on my trip.
Typical of Vegas, they served me way too much food and I couldn't even come close to finishing. I also upgraded to a large beer, which was a mistake when I couldn't finish. Oh well.
This place is run by the same folks who run the Cheesecake Factory, and I the food was basically along the same lines. The ambiance was fantastic tho; people watching at the Venetian is a wonderful way to spend an hour munching on pasta.
People thought this was:
My favorite 24 hr cafe...related to Cheesecake factory (notice the similarity in the look of the menu?)
Yum: Veal Saltimbocca - Tender Veal, Fresh Sage, Proscuitto and Fontina Cheese Coated with Parmesan Breadcrumbs. Served with Pasta and Wine Sauce
Chicken Pot Pie- omg, this is HUGE! It could feed 2-3 seriously with big chunks of chicken and veggies.
Best on the menu: Mediterranean Mahi Mahi-Crusted Fresh Mahi with Roasted Tomato, Artichoke, Capers, Basil, Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar over mashed potatoes.
Yuck: Asian nachos--wayyyy too sweet, I ate half a chip and fed the rest to A.
Rib eye steak: A ordered it and well, its the quality of a cafe-if you want steak just pay and go to a steakhouse

I think this four stars is for food, and not for service. I am an absolute fan of Grand Luxe Cafe when it comes to food because they're DELICIOUS and the plates are huge! They have good opening hours and it's a nice casual cafe to kick back and relax after a day of activities, gambling, drinking or an all nighter ...
However, because this is in the prime spot of Las Vegas i.e. Venetian and it's right by the entrance and one of the only cafes in Venetian serving this type of food, this place gets extremely packed, extremely fast! I came here for lunch at 11 am and it was already overly bustling with people, waiters and plates and forks everywhere. They have the hugest most extensive menu of any cafe I've seen yet and all of it comes out looking delicious and tastes so as well.
I had a chance to have a go at their breakfast menu and it's great, they do serve some breakfast items all day but also have a specialty breakfast portion until 11 am. Great place to stop by for some variety in Vegas that's casual and comforting aside from the terrible service.
People thought this was:
So this is Venetian's 24 hr restaurant and I really like this place. For one, there's always something for everyone. This is a sister restaurant to the cheesecake factory, so some of the menu items are the same. The decor looks almost exactly the same as the cheesecake restaurant as well. Very clean and quick service too.
I always order the chicken pot pie. I always have to get this because it's really good! Lots of big chunks of chicken breast and veggies with a flaky pastry crust. There are also a variety of other things like pasta, burgers, salads, soups, sandwiches, etc. There's basically something for everyone. Portions here are huge, def. enough to share with someone.
Service here is great...esp the waiters at night. We had came back here after a night of drinking and the waiter was very patient with us and we were able to get some food in our tummys! Just a warning though, the late night menu is not the same full menu that they serve during the day time. Still plenty of delicious choices!
People thought this was:
Do you LOVE noshing on summer noodle spring rolls and club sandwiches, while sipping white sangria and espresso martinis, at 3am on Thursday? Do you LOVE The Cheesecake Factory, but never get the opportunity to go? If so, then hit Up GLC at The Venetian when in Vegas.
We needed to grab a late night meal after landing into McLarren post midnight. We were seated right away, excited by the extensive "Late Night" menu options, and enjoyed every bite and sip.
Sorta pricey, but hey, it's VEGAS!
The portions are HUGE, so share something with your friends so that you have room for dessert. Definitely amazing service, amazing food and a must try when you visit Vegas!
I forgot my hotel key and had to head back to MGM to grab it, so I went on Yelp from my Berry and checked out the other Yelper's reccos and I told my friends to order for me, asian nachos and caramel thai chicken. THANKS! YUM!

Grand Lux's elite search and rescue team were on all floors searching for my clear Invisalign retainers, d'oh! It ended with a call on my cell phone 2 hours after going back to our room telling me they found them! Now that's SERVICE.
Service 5****
Aside from going above and beyond their orthodontic duties, they constantly follow up with you when they sense even a bit of a wait (which happens a lot during the wee hours of the night)
Food 4****
This is the late night go-to spot if you want good food for relatively cheap prices to pre-nurse your soon-to-be hangover the next morning. It's a much better alternative for those of you who don't want to walk through "ghetto row" to get to the Steak and Eggs at what used to be Barbary Coast.
------------------------------------------
Short Rib Grilled Cheese $12.00 4.5 **** It has that sweet salty flavor from the meat and the caramelized onions paired with melted cheese. Mmmmm!
We've tried other items as well where the food is delicious, but the last weekend was one of those rare sober trips that I could actually recall what I ate. =)
People thought this was:
Highly recommend the indochine chicken and shrimp. Was surprisingly good!
Favorite lunch item on here is the spicy flatbread chicken sandwich. Very tasty.
There are like 400 reviews for this place, just go, there's something for everyone here. For all you new yorkers, this is the cheesecake factory of Las Vegas, except for the cheesecake factory at Caesars :)
People thought this was:
This place had great service and everything was quick and fast with the refills on the bread and on the drinks, which is awesome and what I expect when I'm in Vegas ! :)
The food though isn't that great in my opinion. I had the Miso Glazed Salmon because I wasn't feeling good at the time and didn't feel like eating lots of beef and heavy meat soo I ordered the salmon.
The dish was soo huge and the piece of fish was gigantic, so big I took only a few bites and I was done!! I should of shared with someone which was downfall.
If you want to eat here, you should have a really big appetite !!
People thought this was:
This place has something for any craving.. and the best part is that it's open 24 hours! :) I've eaten here a few times and it's always a must visit when I am in vegas. Things I've tried:
The Max Burger: Certified Angus Beef Topped with Cheddar Cheese, Crisp Applewood Smoked Bacon, Sauteed Mushrooms, Onions and Roasted Short Ribs. Served with Fries. - This was a whole lotta burger! I only got thru a 1/4 of my burger, next time I get this I plan to share it.
Chopped salad - This was average.
Pasta Carbonara - this was very good! A nice serving too...
Jamaican Pork tenderloin - DELICIOUS. try this.
I really think you will enjoy anything you have here. Give it a try!
I absolutely looooove this place!!! Everything that I have ate here is absolutely delicious..even the tap water tastes good.
Ive stayed at the Venetian for one of my most recent trips to Vegas for a week..and just about every meal I had was from the Grande Luxe!
What Ive had:
appetizers:
Mini chili cheese hot dogs: hit the spot after a night of dancing and drinking at Tao, but dont u dare eat em if u cant hold down ur alcohol and food!
Duck pot stickers: very yummy, dont really taste the duck meat due to the spicyness of the Hoisin sauce.
Asian Nachos: such a cool play off regualar nachos. the chips are made from wontons and there is peanut sauce which is spicy and sweet! there is also wasabi cream which is daring but sooo good. This appetizer is good with a beer!
Burgers:
The Max Burger: Omfg!! burger effin heaven, I swear to you! Angus beef topped with short ribs, bacon, mushrooms and cheese! So delicious, I wanted to order another..but there was no way I was going to finish it!
Santa Barbara Chicken Sandwich: Delicious, but nothing will top the Max Burger.
Entrees:
Jamaican Pork Tenderloin: The presentation is so pretty, you dont want to eat it, but then your senses kick in and you start grubbin! With every bite of the tenderloin top off your fork with a little of the sweet mash potatos and mango salsa..your tongue will thank you!
Fried Chicken: An overload of delicious chicken tenders!
Crispy Caramel Chicken: Spicy from the thai sauce, but there is caramel that blands down the kick of the spicyness and makes it a bit sweet.
Chicken Royale: if you want to play it safe, go ahead and pick this. simple and delicious.
Pizza:
Margherita: Yummy with a huge beer! The pizza bread is very thin and super crispy.
Simply put, the food is delicious. Be a risk taker and order something that sounds daring with the fusions of sauces, you wont regret it.
The presentation for all the plates are lovely.
Super Pro:
Open 24 hours!!

Went here for the first time during Labor Day Weekend. Portions are huge! I got the flatbread with salad. YUMM, hit the spot after a drunken Friday night. I wish I had room for the cheesecake. Definitely going to be on my list to go here for food when I go back to Vegas for Halloween.
If you love The Cheesecake Factory, you'll love Grand Lux Cafe. And it's open 24/7 for all the people awake at all hours of the day in Vegas. Situated in the Venetian made it the perfect place for my friends and I to hobble into after clubbing at Tao. We enjoyed sitting outside so we could people watch all the other intoxicated clubbers walking around the casino area. I ate here both nights I stayed at the Venetian.
I always have a huge appetite and craving for fatty foods after I club or party. Their gigantic bacon cheeseburger and sausage and mushroom pizza hit the spot. They were only $9.95 each too! I scarfed half of each down and somehow made my way up to the 10th floor of the hotel to finally knock out. The cheese in both dishes was perfectly gooey, cooked the way I asked, and although I'm sure 1000 calories, worth every bite to help absorb the alkie my liver was trying to digest.
MMM... big portions always get 4 starts from me!
People thought this was:
The Cheesecake Factory's little sister.
Same gigantic sized portions as the old sister.
It's an alright place if you have just arrived to LV and you're so hungry that you're having black-outs on and off, and you don't have the urge to search anything else.
Don't spend too much money on there, just get something quick, like a salad (size-wise was huge!), the mojitos were bad; sugar loaded no twisted flavor, what kind of mojitos are these? Got confused a bit. I got mexican paloma with Southwestern chicken salad, the lunch size, this got me confused too, cos the lunch size was pretty big, I didn't wanna imagine the dinner size.... Do they think that humans are cows and have three stomachs?
Anyway, this is your first and last resort. You definitely can find better place to eat, but if you're too lazy it's just there!
No photos, sorry, I was so hungry that I didn't care.

I've been to the one at the Beverly center as well as the one in Vegas. Basically, it's a cheesecake factory with a different name. They have the same décor and the same overwhelming menu with chefs that do nothing spectacular but do a little bit of everything mediocre.
Same story with my latest visit. I had the pasta carbonara and the sauce was good, a bit bland and the pasta was a bit overcooked. However, the bf LOVED the fried spring rolls that you roll in lettuce. Kinda a hybrid between egg rolls and lettuce wraps. I have to admit, it was good.
Weird part. I made a friend at my table. There was a little ant crawling around. He wanted some of my pasta and since I didn't finish it myself, I gave him some. Sadly, he drowned in the oil.
Anyway, on to desserts. Their desserts give them a one up on cheesecake. I love their strawberry shortcake along with their beignets.
Grand Lux Cafe is probably the best 24 hr cafe on the strip. It really is the only restaurant I look to when I'm up past midnight. It's essentially The Cheesecake Factory since they have almost identical menus, and that's a good thing because I love CF's diverse menu.
The last time I came here was at around 1:30am, and I needed a big meal to absorb the alcohol I had earlier. I ended up ordering The Max Burger ($13), and I wish I had taken a pic of it because that burger was huge. Angus beef, cheddar cheese, bacon, onions, mushrooms, and braised short ribs. You know it's a serious burger when more meat is used as a condiment. When the waiter brought it over, my jaw dropped. It was so good, and I must've had a serious hole in my stomach because somehow I finished it.
I would come here pretty much any time during the day, but this is definitely the place go when you've got the late night hunger pangs on the strip. The menu is huge and affordable, plus the entree portions are very generous.
Like the two star description says. Meh. I've experienced better. You think you are in Cheesecake Factory, minus the cheesecake. Same huge ass menu, comparable prices, but the only difference is that the Cheesecake Factory has better food. I have been three times to this one in The Venetian and each time the food was just eh. Granted the last time I went I was bombed and don't even remember what or how I ordered. I got some sort of burger with Thousand Island on some sort of bread that resembled 10 grit sandpaper. I have scars in my mouth to prove it.
There are two redeeming qualities for this location only: 1) It is in Vegas, so at least that means I am there and that always puts a smile on my face & B) One trip we were fortunate enough to observe a drunken woman get into an argument with another table from outside the restaurant. Said woman proceeded to grab plates from an empty table and hurl them toward the other party involved in the argument. She was subsequently carried off by security.
People thought this was:
The best 24 hour cafe on the strip. They have a huge menu for whatever you're craving at 4am drunk hungry and ready for bed. We are big fans of the chicken and waffles mmmmmm honey, pecans, fluffy waffles and fried chicken. Soooo good. Great prices!!!!!
People thought this was:
Simply amazing I'd say. It is every bit tasty and delicious just like Cheesecake but the prices aren't as high. After a good night clubbing and walking down the strip for a late night bite, coming to Grand Lux is exactly the place to be. Although the wait can be long especially for the late night crowd, this place gets pack so be ready for a long wait if you have a big party like ours.
We couldn't decide on what to eat for the longest time but the server ended up deciding for us on a pasta w/ sundried tomatoes, mushrooms, chicken with some sort of alfredo sauce. I have to admit that the first bite took me to the Pearly Gates and back. This is an unforgettable place and I'm glad the recommendation lived up to it's hype. =)
This really is my all time favorite cafe to eat at on the Las Vegas strip. Whether it is for breakfast, lunch, dinner or late night it really hits the spot for every meal.
Best part of this place has to be all their pasta dishes. I haven't ordered a pasta dish yet that I haven't liked. Everyone defiantly has to try the pasta dishes if you ever get a chance to come out here. I've also had a chance to try some of their appetizers and breakfast food and it was delicious!
A couple of the YELP reviews below were complaining that it was a Cheesecake Factory owned place. Doesn't really matter to me since their menu is completely different than Cheesecake Factory. Overall a great cafe to try in Las Vegas.
People thought this was:
Helloooooo Grand Lux!!!
You were our saving grace for an affordaable breakfast buffet as well as a late night drunken food binge. We were very happy with your kind wait staff and caring managers. The breakfast buffet was just what we needed and for $15 that was great! The late night, giant grilled cheese for $6 was out of this world.
The turkey club sandwhich was really terrible though, so thats the one thing I can say needs some work ont he menu. New bread, cut it smaller like a club and use a juicier thinner sliced turkey.
Honestly thank you for being around and adding a good option to all the choices in Vegas.

I love that this place is 24 hours and has this fancy upscale feeling. Most 24 hour places aren't as nice as this one.
We came here during dinner time though, not during the wee hours of the morning. And the place was fairly busy but since we had reservations we didn't have to wait very long.
The server was extremely friendly to us considering we had a big group (my family and I). She took our drink orders down and carded almost all of us minus the parentals. She even carded my oldest brother who is waaaay above the drinking age. I guess he just looks that young.
I ordered the Short Rib Grilled Cheese Sandwich. It came with french fries. It wasn't that bad actually. But it wasn't my favorite. It was pretty greasy but I guess most sandwiches with a name like that tends to be on the greasier side.
My brother ordered the Crispy Caramel Chicken and it was so so good. He let me try some and immediately I wanted to trade with him. It was so delicious. The sauce is sweet but not too sweet that it tastes like dessert. The chicken was crispy enough but not too much that it's hard to bite into. Oh man, I wish I had some right now!
The drinks were pretty strong and come in big glasses.
The service was awesome. Our server was so nice and friendly and joked with us. Very accommodating too!
We love coming to this place. So we'll definitely be back on our next trip!

the thought of room service crossed my mind when i was staying at the venetian... then after opening the room service menu and doing all the math, my head started hurting because so much tax+fees had to be added for everything on the menu. skip the room service, just walk your lazy ass downstairs to the grandlux cafe and pick up something and bring it back to your room!
i ordered a fruit cup and clam chowder for munchies and it was so good! my clam chowder was definitely pricey ($7) but it came with a loaf of sourdough bread they serve at the restaurant, enough for me to dip my soup. fruit cup came with assorted melons and berries, light enough for my hungover self. you can order/pick up your to-go items right at the bakery (full menu from restaurant).
the restaurant itself is 24hours and provides post midnight menu, a classier alternative to cheap $5 steak and eggs.
p.s. grandlux is a sister restaurant of the cheesecake factory, quality standard guaranteed.
People thought this was:
Disappointing that such a large chain would have such a limited gluten-free menu and the wait staff are uneducated about what gluten is.
Enough said.
When staying at The Venetian- the Grand Lux Cafe is a lifesaver!
I just recently stayed at The Venetian with 7 other girls for a bachelorette weekend and Grand Lux came in handy on SEVERAL occasions. We had several other meals planned out, but between staying at pool parties too late and needing disco naps before heading out for the nighttime, we didn't make most of our dinner plans...so this place was the answer! We would call in the order, go down in our robes (quite the site, lol), pick up the food, take the food back up, and feast in our rooms :) We had everything from pizzas, to potato spring rolls, to salads, and everything was great. The best part was the price...for 8 girls to eat, the total was only $96! That's less than lunch cost us the first day at one of the panini cafeterias across from the Grand Lux...if only we knew!
We also used the Grand Lux for breakfast one day as we surprised the bachelorette with a Lingerie party brunch in the room...we had the waffles, scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon, and fruit salad (along with some bottles of bubbly and OJ we picked up from different places around the hotel...Afterall, what's a brunch without mimosas?!) and we all loved every breakfast item we had.
Some of the girls also used this spot as a late night (OK fine, early morning) spot to snack before hitting the sack, but I didn't...I was more concerned with keeping my liquid diet going ;)
We wanted to go to Bouchon for brunch and got there about 10 minutes after they stopped seating. We had about an hour and a half to eat and get back to the hotel for check-out, and this place had eggs on the menu (although it was the lunch menu). It's owned by Cheesecake Factory, so if you want to know what to expect, then go to your local Cheesecake Factory and order your usual. I found the eggs to be too greasy and J's sandwich was mediocre at best. The waitress who took our order was impossible to track down, and we almost missed check-out because it took over 1/2 an hour to get our food (the table next to us ordered later and got their stuff on time).
I guess the place is okay, the service not so much, but with so many other options, why go to a more pricey version of Cheesecake Factory?
Great food. Huge variety. Open 24/7. Generally good service... But can be slow at times. Will eat there every time I'm in Vegas and at the Venetian... Which is a little more often than I should. ;)
Believe all the hype/other reviewers as this place is REALLY fantastic. Two people for $100 gets you an outstanding meal with tons of dinner choices. 5/5 stars as the same quality elsewhere would be double the price. TIP: portions are huge so share!
People thought this was:
This place is really nothing more than a Cheesecake Factory superimposed in swanky Vegas hotel. And of course, in true Cheesecake fashion, the glossy, voluminous menu book puts any children's storybook to shame and the offering always seems better on the menu than on the plate.
But then again, when it's 3.30AM, you've blown $600 for either an overpriced champagne at a club or at the blackjack table with impossible bets, and you're dying for some post-party munchies, none of the above matters.
All you care about is the unlimited serving of warm bread with butter, carb-heavy dish big enough to feed a family of 4 in a third world country, and a glass of ice-cold coke to wash it down with.
Budget-friendly comfort food.
People thought this was:
If you like Cheesecake Factory you'll love this spot that's by the same creators of Cheesecake. The menu is obviously similar and they didn't make any drops in quality. I've been here four times and have had:
Caramel Thai chicken - delicious, thick sweet caramel glave on top of chicken breast bites. It's a humongous plate that should be shared. The sauce is just amazing and the chicken is juicy.
Spaghetti Carbonara: Real melting cheese silces on top, high quality bacon, perfect texture.. I've been to Italy and had the real deal and this is the same if not better
Grilled salmon - as good as expected.. put a hint of lime on it and you're good to go
I've had the breakfast platter (saugage, ham, eggs, etc) and it's very good too, but not that amazing nor unique (overpriced too).
The service is friendly and also make sure you get the smoothies. They're about $6 but worth it. Huge glasses of perfectly blended fruit, mango and rasberry are fantastic!
