"Food was outstanding!!! That being said everthing else to d with the dining experience was subpar. Hostess was doing puzzle when we walked in left us standing right in front of her for more than 2 min without noticing we were even there...after being seated dinner took 45 min to get to the table...we had no appitizers and split a house salad...Food though once it got there was great as usual. Manager stopped by to ask how the meal was but we had just got our plates and had not even cut into our steaks..."

"The service, salad and entrees were excellent. I recommend the salmon. The wine list was respectable.

The desserts needed help. We ordered a cannoli but apparently received the last one in the batch so the middle was hollow. The filling was also missing chocolate chips, something I like in a cannoli. Our server replaced that with tiramisu. It was dry, like the lady fingers had not been moistened before layering or maybe it sat uncovered in a refrigerator for awhile.

If I find myself at Harrah's again I would be happy to visit Mike & Charlie's but probably would not make a special trip for it. I would plan ahead either way and find a place to park that does not require me to walk through the smoke-filled casino en route to the restaur"

"We were truly surprised how amazing our experience at Mike and Charlie's was. We took advantage of the early dining special, a fantastic deal for $12! The salads were flavorful, our main entrees were ample and delicious. And the desserts were amazing. Our server was so attentive and knowledgeable. We look forward to eating here again and again. We've already raved about the restaurant to our friends and family. What a great find!"

"I am a major Foodie and dine out probably 5 days/ or nights a week.

This is the worst service I've had in 20 years of dining. I ordered a Ketel One and soda and they delivered an Absolut and soda - and it took 25 minutes for the drink to arrive. I have 5 examples of exactly that."

"We've been to Garozza's a few times and liked it. I was expecting this place to be something less-it is in a casino after all. But we were pleasantly surprised. Once you get past all the smoke and zombies in the casino, you're in a real nice place. The food was every bit as good as Garozza's. We had a veal dish that was very good and even better the next day. My daughter enjoyed her pizza. We split a bottle of malbec that was excellent. The decor was relaxing and classy. Our server was good. He knew his stuff and didn't hover. I just wish it weren't where it is."
