| - CONDENSED IN A SOUP CAN: An hour away awesome retreat from the heat and bustle of Vegas!
THE MEAT: We went in late October and it was COLD. The winds were strong and it hailed for a good half hour. The drive up the mountains was quick and lined with large pine trees. I couldn't believe how close this was to dry flat Vegas! The restaurant was not very large, but the windows were and filled with good views. It's cozy ambiance and chill jazz music is a perfect remedy to a long hot week filled with stress and nagging. We had the chicken fingers/fries, elk burger, bleu cheese burger and chili dog and all were satisfying and in generous portions. The drinks were good too, try The Nutty Irishman - hazelnut liqueur, Irish cream and coffee - Mmmmm. Service was EXCELLENT, our server was a mind reader with humor. We'll be back!
I'M STILL DIGESTING... The old school, tiny, antiseptic white bathrooms. They're clean, but stick out like sore thumbs in the warm, cozy, woodsy environment. Time for a renovation guys.
