We had an hour to kill before our show at New York New York. We decided to eat at Diablo because it looked like a fun lively atmosphere and it was packed.
When we arrived we were seated sooner than we expected because it was so crowded. We were excited about the place because we had patio seating overlooking the strip.
The first thing we noticed was our waitress. She was a little on the trashy looking side. She came to get our order right away. When we didn't know what we wanted she disappeared for literally about 10 minutes.
I ordered one of their specialty margaritas made with raspberry vodka. It was $14.00 and tasted like cough medicine. My fiancé ordered the pina colada which came in a cheap plastic cup. It tasted like a cheap pina colada mix. Horrible. That was $13.00.
I ordered the guacamole and it was awful. I have had better from the taco stands around town. It looked like it came from a large vat made hours before it was served. It was creamy and bland. Not to mention they present it in a cast iron bowl but on the bottom it is filled with chips to make the portion look bigger.
After being disappointed in the guacamole I didn't want to order anymore food. My fiancé ordered the chicken fajitas. They were on the par of getting them through a place like Friday's or Chili’s (somewhere who isn't known for them but serves them.)
At the end of the night we spent about $75.00 on crap. I would never recommend eating there. The atmosphere was loud and looked like fun but it was just a bunch of people getting hosed on watered down drinks and terrible "bar food".
This restaurant is owned by the Light Group. They have some really great places. Shockingly this doesn't reflect the great reputation they have.
