I just ate there last Saturday.

The food was even better than I remembered. Crab/mango salad, wild boar ... I'm not into fancy-schmancy restaurants. But this place is upscale and the menu is an adventure for your frickin' mouth! Seriously, unique tastes and deliciousnesstastic. The service is very nice, an if you give them the chance they are HILarious!

5-stars, agaim=n

    Service: great.
    Food: fancy, delicate and well textured.
    Staff: hot.

    ... I recommend the martini's and nearly any one of their appetizers.

    Definitely, upscale so don't be wearing your torn-jeans and 3-wolves T-shirt. Great date place.

Uh, no way!

I have phoned the same account person at Wawanesa 6 times! He has never been available and when he gave me an alternate phone number ... that person said, "yes he's at his desk" .... and transfered me to his voicemail!

... all of this when I tried to START AN ACCOUNT. Why am I spending my time tracking a salesperson down so I can pay them?? If this is the sort of process and customer service they convey when I TRY TO PAY THEM ... I can't imagine what it would be like to get claim paid.

Geebus.

I'm willing to change this post if their customer service changes.

The people whom/which/and do love this place ... are my brethren.

Yes. A lil' over priced on the drinks ... BUT I've had an awesome time every single time I've gone. It's also one of the most different bars in Vegas. Everything else is neon and posers: this bar is almost like a neighborhood bar. I always make sure to visit whenever I'm in Las Vegas.

I don't frequent the place, but I'd recommend it to anyone.

Their chicken salad sandwich is top notch and their bakery ... makes me ... feel like the Zeus of Desserts.

Everything I've had there has been great. I would push my mom down a flight of stairs for their bacon-avocado-burger.  "Mom Pushing Goodness from your friends at Astro Burger."

... on the flip side, the owners are two brothers. Every year they take all of their employees and their families to Disneyland. They treat their employees so well that once people are hired, they never want to leave. Which is great to hear in this economy.

     I love supporting businesses like this.

I love this place. Great music. Friendly people.

Toss on some black cloths, get ready from some interesting outfits and dance a little buzzed.

The drinks are pricey (I won't lie to you) but it's so much fun.

I'd recommend parking at Hollywood/Highland to save a headache. Buy a bottled water from Starbucks on the way out ... BAM! $2 parking that's close, and safe.

I have mixed feelings about this place.  Great atmosphere. Good place for taking visitors. I like the food ...

... but I think it's just not something that draws me back.

I love going here and just walking around. Great place to bring guests from out of town.

I recommend not parking in the little Farmer's Market Parking Lot. It's crowded and hard to get in and out of. I say pay the $3 and park in the big structure. It's worth avoiding the headache.

Tons of neat places to grub.

... and I hear the karaoke night is a lot of fun.  :)

I like Whole Foods in general. It's a great place. For some reason this is one of the nicer Whole Foods inside.

Love it.
