Recently spent a weekend in Vegas and wasn't sure what time I'd arrive on the first evening (Friday), so I didn't make reservations. I managed to get into 808 (without problem).
The food was definately acceptable... pacific seafood that made me happy.
The bar only seats about 6-8 people, so don't plan to linger before dinner. The restaurant also pushes up very close to the bar... I saw one poor couple seated at the table only a few feet from the bar, and a few inches from the main traffic area.
The restaurant is right off the casino, and was fairly loud. This was not a relaxed meal- it was crowded and noisy.
Overall: yes, eat here if you can't get into the great places (and there are dozens in the area).
