| - Along with LBS Burger, Holsteins, and The Barrymore, this restaurant is operated by Block 16 Hospitality which is for my money, the hottest group in Vegas right now and I would recommend all of their spots. This on is no exception. It is located in the Venitian right across from the Blue Man Theater and is a perfect spot to grab a bite before the show, as I did.
They are very proud of their beer list, but with places like the yard house for cheaper I didn't find it a particular draw. They do have a rotating cask ale which is unique and reasonably priced. They get a handful of casks and then move on to the next beer when they run out.
They claim they offer comfort pub food which roughly translates into very rich food. They have homemade pates and charcuterie which were very good but enough to share. The welsh rarebit is beer cheese on toast which I though could have been a bigger portion when it came out, but ended up being perfect after I was stuffed with everything else. They have devils on horseback which is the now ubiquitous bacon wrapped stuffed dates. They are popular for a reason. The poutine was topped with cheese curds, duck confit, and veal gravy. It was both as amazing and filling as it sounds. I could have eaten that and nothing else.
I would definately recommend getting the house made pickles. It comes with pickled onion, cauliflower, and carrot. They were are very well done and the onion did not have a strong taste and did not leave me with horrendous onion breath. I would get these again because they were so good and also because they did a good job of cutting all of the other heavy selections.
