First off, I really appreciate how easy it is to access this place, whether you're coming from Paris or the Horseshoe, all without stepping outside. It's a nice break from the casino's hustle. Also their signature cocktails are absolutely fantastic (most of the time, depending on the bartender).
However, one thing that disappoints me is that this Montecristo location doesn't provide complimentary drinks while playing the video poker machines, unlike the Caesar's Palace location. This by itself makes me not want to spend a dime here. Which it's a bit of a letdown. Also, some of the male bartenders can come across as unfriendly, particularly the younger ones. On the plus side, the female bartender (Nikki?) is fantastic and really compensates for the others' service.
Another issue I've observed is that the ventilation system isn't the best. When a few people are inside, it can get pretty smokey. Luckily, this place doesn't get too crowded often.
