Great food and service.
$10 a slice for cold pizza

$13 bucks for ramen on Fremont Street!! There's probably no better value than TOMO noodles downtown. I hope they don't raise their prices, because the ramen is totally worth it. The flavor, quality, size portions is all there for the tokontsu noodle bowl. I...

Atmosphere and location boost appeal but noise and politicized décor can deter
The setting scores high, with reviews praising “awesome for people watching,” “Super welcoming vibe,” and pleasant downtown ambience, while complaints about loud music, political photos, and a “negative atmosphere” illustrate that acoustic control and neutral decor are vital to preserve the venue’s draw.
Evidence:

- Super welcoming vibe.
- Any place posting photos of people meeting with Trump will send my business elsewhere
- Atmosphere seems great but service was awful!! No insight and we had the hardest time about being seated
- Noise makes dining uncomfortable
