   Food was good. Service slow. Super noisy. Way overpriced. Typical Vegas experience.

   Orla was an exceptions experience. We truly enjoyed the Orla Experience for dinner, and a great bottle of wine. If you have not been and want an excellent selection from the Chef order the Orla Experience, I added the caviar appetizers and it was WELL Worth it.

   We had a wonderful dinner for my father’s 80th birthday. They even had a candle on his dessert!

   Horrible food had no flavor. I had to wait 30 minutes for a club soda and had to ask for refills. The server was not attentive at all, worst dining experience I have had in a long time.

   We had a great experience at Orla. The service was great and on point throughout the entire dinner. The food was excellent - zucchini blossoms, spicy duck, hummus (best i have ever had), Greek salad were all highlights. Only item was thought was a slight step below those was the lemon chicken. We look forward to returning.

   I reserved in advance for Mykonos Nights at Orla which was described to be an “Escape to the Greek Isles where Mediterranean flavors, handcrafted cocktails, & vibrant beats come together for an unforgettable evening. Indulge in light, flavorful bites paired with signature cocktails.” It seemed exclusive (see photo below). This is what went wrong: 1) The server. He didn’t really know what was going on. Seemed in a rush. When I asked about the Mediterranean bites he had to ask a coworker. He came back & said they were served from 10-12. What?! There was even a sign when you checked in that said 8-12. It was also listed on the website. I was irritated & just ordered a drink plus the fried cheese and charred octopus. My significant other was not as forgiving about the entire situation & pressed the server for more info so he suddenly brought out a drink specials menu that he said could be served now (but the Mediterranean bites were still not being served until 10:00p). The drinks on that menu were significantly less expensive than the one I had just ordered. The server was just plain confused so he went and got the manager. 2) The manager. He was nice and tried. I have to give him that but when we showed him the website & the fact that it stated 8-12 midnight, he looked confused as well. He told us he would allow us to order off the Mediterranean bites menu now & brought it out. That menu included the charred octopus & fried cheese that I had just ordered but it was the SAME PRICE as the regular menu. The mgr’s response to this was just that it simplified searching for those items on the full menu! HUH?! We just split an entree since I was still hungry & planned to head out. 3) Check Out. The drink that I was told would be comped was not so the server had to get the manager (again) to fix it. Overall we enjoyed the food but were feeling betrayed by the marketing ploy that made this appear to be a special experience. Plus the server never once apologized!

   Food & drinks were fine, not great. Restaurant knew it was our anniversary yet tried to seat us at the worst table in the restaurant. Second table wasn't much better. Very unfortunate....

    Caution: be very specific about the number of plates of each dish that you want. Our server just assumed 2x until we realized what he was doing. The salmon dish tasted weird. While the texture and temp were good it tasted like fishy pumpkin spice. I would not dine here again nor recommend this restaurant.
