good food – The food was good and I enjoyed the gentle, dark, yet colorful ambience for a relaxing lunch/dinner. I had a chicken patty on noodles with capers in a lemon-olive oil sauce. It was the perfect portion, flavorful, and deliscious and I normally don't even like lemon flavored foods. My husband enjoyed his dish, too. I would recommend it.

An OK dance club (for special events) – I've been to the House of Blues on the Sunset Strip only a few times, and in all cases for special event gay dance nights. Generally, it was fun but it never ever quite achieved the perfect energy that all dance clubs need to have to survive long term. The bar setup is cool, but no one patronized the upstairs level, probably because looking down on the dance floor was nearly impossible. Seeing the off-floor crowd totally impossible. Alas, it's a decent club scene but nothing spectacula... read more

THEFT – soo I went to go see a band tonight with my friend. We were promptly told that cameras were not allowed at this venue ( lame and ridiculous considering people can bring phones that now take fair to excellent pictures that are close to camera quality) so we went back to the car that we had valet'd in the HOB lot to put the camera back. When we got to the car the windows were down and the car was unlocked, which we found curious considering it wasn't like that when we handed it over to the valet guy. Nevertheless we th... read more

Gospel Brunch - Good but not great – Parking is valet, or $10 in a lot across the street. The buffet seemed standard fare for a brunch but not remarkable. Self-serve coffee/tea, couple of omelet stations, plus the usual breakfast, salad, hot dishes, carving station, bagels, muffins and other desserts. A waiter offered soft drinks but brought me water when I asked. There were only a few Southern dishes - biscuits/gravy, grits, chicken, mac/cheese - I expected more. The best dessert was the bread pudding. I tried a bit of the ... read more

Saw gym class heroes here! – I saw gch-who I LOVE-here so I can't complain about my experience. I ended up finding this weird entrance- that lead me to their dressing room!!! I saw travie!!! I was frozen. Also had dinner and drinks before the show- my friends got crazy and the people around us were annoyed but I'd say service would go. Would definitely go back if there was a hot show!

food - average at best – I was staying in Mandalay Bay last week so I went there with my girlfriend for dinner. We liked the atmosphere in the restaurant but we were both very disappointed with the food. I ordered this shrimp pasta dish and the quality reminded me of eating at Chilli's or Bennigan's. My girlfriend didn't like her food either. One thing I should mention is that the service was really good. I guess if you're stuck in a Casino and don't feel like walking too far for food, check this place out.

Do you really expect me to eat that? – Warning: this restaurant is a trap which, even tourists, should not fall for. They lure you in with the music (because let's face it- there is no other reason you should even be there). Maybe you think it's a good idea to have dinner before a show? Do so... elsewhere. My friend and I decided to split a chicken sandwich and a pizza. How could anyone screw up a sandwich and pizza, right? Well- you start by serving the cold chicken breast on a three-day old bun. Then you undercook the pizz... read more

Great gospel, nothing else – Totally the most overrated "LA experience." Here's why: buffet features super-long lines, crowded little picnic chairs at the family-style tables (most tables aren't private), they practically shut down the buffet once the music starts, not giving you much time to really enjoy your food unless you go really early. The 40 dollars must be strictly for the concert, because the food is NOT on that level, and any alchohol must be paid separately for 10 bucks all you can drink. The gospel musicians enc... read more
