Had a great trip to Vegas but was less than impressed with my first experience at Casa Fuente.

The first visit was Friday morning around 10am. There was no one at the tables inside and only 2-3 groups seated outside with 10-12 empty tables... regardless, the waitress refused to seat my friend and I at a table inside and would only seat us at a table in the front corner cramped against the potted plants and standing signs. When I asked why we couldn't sit at any of the other empty tables she would only say "my manager says we have to keep the other tables open". When asked to speak to him he was not very pleasant and gave excuses about keep other tables open because they were expecting a large crowd because of the ongoing cigar convention. He didn't have a coherent answer when I asked "why are you inconveniencing the business you have now in anticipation of business you might have later?". He begrudgingly offered to move us to a table inside, but we declined as we had already been served our French Press and didn't want to deal with the logistics of moving at that point. During the hour or so we were there, the outside seating didn't fill beyond 50% capacity and no one sat inside.

The French Press coffee was extremely good and probably the only reason we went back on Sunday morning. Things went more smoothly this time and we were seated at a less cramped table. The coffee was just as good as well. I will probably go back again on subsequent visits, but my first impression was not a good one and another similar experience would likely see me not return again.
