| - We went to this restaurant the other night, for my wife's birthday. We both really enjoyed our meal, from start to finish. It's a very small place, inside the Casino Arizona. Once inside the restaurant, you would have no clue there is a casino outside their door. No smoke smell or casino noise.
A very nice bread basket was delivered to our table. It has soft patties of butter as well as pesto flavored olive oil. Great presentation!
They brought over two small pieces of tenderloin with a side of horse radish sause, for us to try. That was exceptional & we didn't even ask for it. How nice is that?
They bring you a little scoop of lemons sorbet, to cleanse your pallet, before your meal. That was an unexpected pleasure and again, no charge. Very nice touch!
I had the Steak & Mushroom soup. It had diced angus beef and Portobello & crimini mushrooms, in a cabernet brown broth. It was excellent and it was a meal in it self. The price was only $7. My wife had the Caesar salad and she said it was excellent. Both portions were very generous in size.
Next came our main course. We split a Chateaubriand for two. The char-grilled tenderloin came sliced with a side of Aujus & BĂ©arnaise. It was cooked perfectly and it tasted great. Price was $39.
Our sides were Lobster mashed potatoes and au-gratin potatoes. Both were excellent. Price was included with our main course.
Service was not at all rushed. Our young waitress wasn't very talkative and she did start to clear my plate while my wife was still eating. A little more training and she will be just fine.
Dinner was so filling, we didn't have room for dessert. They did sound great, maybe next time.
Our bill was extremely fair & reasonable. I already recommended this restaurant to two couples we know. Don't let the casino atmosphere deter you from this nice affordable restaurant. It's small, might seat 50 or 60 people, so call ahead and make a reservation, like we did.
My return factor is 85%
