please keep in mind GVR is my place to stay when going to Vegas, so i've probably been to this place more times then i can remember...
the food isn't off the charts, it's just quality, home cooked style, stick to your ribs tasty goodness. the Oysters are always fresh, so the selection is different every time im there. the Roasts are creamy crustacean concoctions with a side of steamed rice, the Jambalaya is healthy on the meats but maybe needs a tad of spice, and the chilled seafood appetizers cant miss, in particular the Crab Cocktail and Chilled Whole Lobster. portions are filling, and the food always hits the spot. while the Chowder is good, its pre-made and left to simmer...
this is the place to stop by for a dozen with your Champagne (BYOB allowed!) as a prelude to dinner at Hank's later in the evening.
