The Mad Onion restaurant is inside the Hooters Hotel & Casino. We ate at the Mad Onion for dinner on Saturday because when we checked into the hotel on Friday we received a 50% off coupon for this restaurant.  And let me tell you, for the half-off price we paid, this was not bad. But if we had paid full price we would have felt disappointed. \n\nIt has long been a point of sadness for me that the whole food-service world has transition to an on-the-side mentality. When I order a salad with dressing, I want the dressing tossed in with the greens, not in a little plastic cup.  Well this restaurant takes \"on-the-side\" to a whole new level.   Everything that can come on the side does, including the butter and fixins for baked potatoes.  I requested butter, bacon and cheddar cheese.  All three came on the side. So I dumped them all on the potato and asked them to heat the potato up until the cheese melted, which they did do but their initial response was \"we don't do that\".\n\nThis restaurant has the \"feel\" of a romantic dinner destination but because of their \"cafeteria-service\" mentality, it will never be more than mediocre.  \n\nAs for the food itself, my steak was tender and tasty and cooked properly. The baked potato was a little under-cooked but acceptable after I had the re-heat it with toppings. The fish n chips was also good enough to not be disappointed but was certainly not something you would rave about and look forward to on your next trip to Vegas.\n\n Like the hotel this restaurant sits in, this Mad Onion is not bad, but is certainly not very good.  We are unlikely to eat here again.
