| - Just came here yesterday for my birthday.
The atmosphere is ideal for kids. This location on Rainbow and Lake Mead has a playground outside for kids to play in. Although its Las Vegas and it's hot out, kids will be kids and will not allow the heat to deter them from playing on it.
Upon arrival the hostess wasn't as friendly as a hostess should be, but our server definitely made up for that. Our server Lacy was awesome. She had a positive bubbly attitude. She was so helpful and super friendly. I really appreciate her as my server.
I ordered an appetizer of a bucket of 18 shrimps. Although the shrimps were a little on the smaller side, dipping it in the cocktail sauce made it delicious. Only problem was that the seasoning was smuthered on the outside of the shell on the shrimp. When the shell is peeled off, the Old Bay seasoning went along with it.
For main course, i ordered the new Queen crab. The queen crab was new and was supposedly in season and was the most popular item, so I ordered that with the garlic herb spice. The crab was disappointing when it came out. The meat was described as meaty and juicy on the menu. When arrived, the shell sure looked big, but when cracking it open, the meat was tiny and unfulfilling. I don't recommend the queen crab. The meat was a little on the dry side. The flavoring was a disappointment. I recommend making your own sauce with lemon juice, tobasco, and pepper.
The stuff snapper was an item that was also order, and it was delicious! the crab meat on top of the snapper gave the fish a delightful taste.
The kids menu was good with a variety of burgers and chicken suitable for kids with a choice of vegatable or fries. Beware: there are no refills on juices or milk. I suggest ordering a soda or lemonade if your kids are thirsty from playing outside in the playground.
Since it was my birthday, the people who brought me here expected a free dessert. They DO NOT offer a free dessert, even for your birthday. What they do offer is a song and pony ride. They came out and sang a birthday song, expecting for me to gallop around restaurant. I believe this is geared more towards kids and an adult. Although embarassing, the kids found it fun and entertaining.
All and all i give this place a 4 star.
