I took a Friday off recently to have a father/son day before my kid went back to school. Some parents might avoid the Strip like the plague, but not me. My kid thinks it's a treat to go visit the "big city". Before heading to a magic show we grabbed lunch at KGB. The place was empty so they sat us in a big, comfy booth.
Their kid's menu isn't advertised on their website, but they do have one. It's full of typical kid's stuff and my kid got chicken tenders, of course. For $8 he got a basket overflowing with fries and topped with four large chicken strips, with a side of BBQ sauce and ranch.
I went with a BBQ bacon cheeseburger. It's larger than burgers at some other gourmet burger joints and it was much better than expected. The onion/poppy seed bun was soft, squishy, and thin, which I liked. The patty was thick and tightly formed, but very juicy. Their BBQ sauce was sweet and tangy but didn't detract from the beefiness of the patty. The bacon and onion strings on top added to the deliciousness. Make sure you have extra napkins handy because it's messy. The fries would have been much better if they laid off the salt a bit.
KGB might not be as good as my other favorite burger places on the Strip, but the tasty food makes me think I should give it another try.
