    Steak night was delicious. Service was haphazard, organised chaos, with no structure. Queueing for food and drinks should be separate.

    Went to a dinner show at the Sands.. Staff were amazing, the layout was very good, the food even though very nice was just on the 'warm' side...which is a shame considering I was sitting at the first table to be served, not sure how others faired further away and last to be served, otherwise it was good.

    We had the most incredible dinner experience at The Sands Resort and loved our delicious dinner of seafood linguine and the gnocchi with some fabulous cocktails. The service was great and all staff were friendly and helpful and we enjoyed a lovely view of the golf course.

    I still think you need to minimise customer queuing in 1 line to be served on a busy Friday night..need to have 2 or 3 staff serving behind the bar between 6-7.30 pm. Food and beversges were good.

    2 mesls on our table came quick and the other 5 were at least 30 mins later. The chicken salad was very poor quality. Chicken overcooked and only 4 small pieces of chicken in the salad. For the prices I’d expect better quality and quicker service.
