Thanks for a few good tips there, personally we dont like buffets and like to have a very light breakfast and then lunch and somewhere good at night. But I have saved the link for the voucher offer. How easy is Tony Romas to find downtown, we just love their ribs We were going to go to red white and blue in Mandalay Bay for ribs, friends of ours love it there and make this their 1st point of call every visit. |

Wow! Thanks for going to so much trouble posting all the info. I'm with you on Orlando buffets, went once, never again! I think having the car is definitely the way to go and have our tom tom so we can have a look in the surrounding areas if we're there for a week i like to have a look around and about. I found a website which is useful for restaurant choice and is great for Las Vegas and Orlando allmenus lists restaurants in the general area so we might try a couple and report back. I've heard the breakfast at south point is worth a visit and at $6.95 it's worth a go. I noticed Tony Romas too and will be visiting as we always go in Orlando. Thanks again, Lisax

This place sounds interesting,do you know if they have live Country and Western music? If they have line dancing were definately going! We love to sit and watch the line dancers.

There is soooo much choice for mid price dining, every hotel has numerous eateries.
We've only had 2 evening buffet's one at the Ballagio and one at the Excalibur (free) and while there was plenty of choice AND I'm far from small I don't get my money's worth TBH. For something nice and relatively cheap we like 'America' inside New York New York. There is also a very nice Italian in the Excalibur. You could stay for a month and not eat at the same place twice.

Don't bother we made a special trip to Fremont Street to do TRs and had the worse meal we have had anywhere in the states - it made us feel ill

How strange? I've always had excellent food and service there, as I have had at all the Tony Roma's I have visited throughout the USA.
I think it just sums up that recommendations and reviews can only be viewed as a guide and it is up to the individual to make the decision on whether to go to a particular restaurant or not. A dining experience is very much an "on the day" thing and circumstances could dictate how your experience goes. We had a great meal with excellent service at Diego in the MGM in 2007 yet the reviews on TA are very hit and miss (more miss to be honest) and a fellow contributor on another forum consistently mentions how bad his experience was. |

I'm pretty sure there is live music every night at 9pm. Unfortunately we were heading to the Sheryl Crow concert at Planet Hollywood that night so we ate earlier than normal and were on our way before the music started up.
I've yet to find that many Brits who have eaten there to be honest but when you exit from the Monorail station at Harrah's you walk right past it and we often commented on the size of the menu and more importantly the prices. After asking a few peoples opinions on the TA forum we decided we'd give it a go and were very glad we did. Don't get me wrong, if you are looking for an upscale eatery this isn't the place, but for big portioned American food it is tough to beat in Vegas IMHO. There is a stage in the restaurant which is quite large, so I can envisage the band playing and people getting up and dancing along. It might not be line dancing but I'm sure it would be a good experience. Apparently, beers are reasonably priced as well and I'm sure someone mentioned happy hour when I asked last year also. Whilst Country music is not my number one choice, it is difficult to sit in a restaurant with videos playing on the numerous TV's and not be tapping your feet |
