One of the worst restaurants I’ve ever been to. My boyfriend and I went yesterday as our first time. The service was slow for a place that had 8 servers and there were probably 7 tables with customers.We thought the food was decent but we woke up this morning with food poisoning. I’m not one leave reviews but this incident is one I won’t forget.Please consider eating at the other restaurants at the Golden Nugget.

We have visited this location 5 times now hoping to have an improved experience but this restaurant continues to disappoint. It seems to be getting worse and they have no incentive to improve as unsuspecting casino visitors are lured into their nice looking restaurant.
Every single time we have visited, the food and drinks take forever to come out. On one occasion there were only two tables full and it still surprisingly happened. It's normally not a problem but when they forget something, it takes another 30min+ to fix their issue.
The margaritas are inconsistent as well and the last one tasted like straight lemonade syrup with no hints of other ingredients. We sent it back and swapped for two beers as we know they couldn't ruin those. Once or twice we did get a decent margarita but you probably have better odds betting your life savings on roulette than getting an enjoyable drink.
We ordered nachos this time around and asked for salsa during our order. The sad excuse for nachos were delivered without salsa so we asked again. We waited and ended up eating our salty unappetizing food with no salsa as it was getting cold. The staff messing up orders is the only thing they have been consistent with on all our visits.
It's almost comical how bad this place is and you can see the other reviews mostly agree. I don't know why we put up with this much punishment but we can finally say its over.
If you are into mediocre food, margaritas and service, this is your place to go.

What a waste of money. I ordered the beef fajita enchiladas which was $23 for 2 like taquito size enchiladas. The charro beans were not really charro but ranch style beans. The rice had no flavor. The sprinkle of chili and cheese they put on the enchilada tasted like it came out of a can. I took one bite of everything and left the whole plate. I wouldn't even feed that to my dog. I do not recommend this place for food or drinks.

Walked from L'auberge to get here and it definitely was NOT worth the trouble. Waited about 20 minutes for a table. The server was awesome, provided some misinformation but quickly righted that wrong so no complaints there. Got the fajita beef enchiladas with chili sauce and charro beans; honestly the food was horrible chili sauce had no flavor and the beans didn't even taste like charro more like ranch style maybe.....and since it is a bar as well i definitely figured the drink I ordered would be phenomenal, missed on that end as well. My entire party was very disappointed and pissed and the money, energy and time that we wasted.
