| - We went downtown for the Fremont Street Experience and to find a place to eat. We found a surprising dearth of the latter, unless you count the places that are hidden in the casinos and advertise $8.99 rib dinners. So, we went into Hennessey's. We are Irish pub fans so it seemed like a good deal.
I ordered a glass of wine, and, for the first time in about twenty years, I was carded! [Ok. It's not like the waitress pretended my forty-something self might be less than twenty-one. She apologized and said she knows it's silly, but she has to card everyone. Still, I thought it was kinda fun.]
My husband ordered a lemonade. The waitress immediately told him it did not come with free refills. He said that was fine. When he took his first sip, he found out why. He said it was homemade and very, very yum. Her ordered a second glass.
My husband ordered the potato-crusted salmon, which he reported to be quite tasty. I ordered the chicken pasta (with mushrooms in a cream sauce), which was also very tasty and the serving was so large, I could not finish.
Prices were a tad high in the real world, but very reasonable for Vegas. Atmosphere was friendly and relaxed. Well worth the stop-in.
