My girlfriends and I have made Big Al's our tradition to hit up while in Vegas. Their chowder is great. Really rich. Don't get the artichoke crab dip...it tastes like the chowder so do one or the other. We do our regular dozen oysters on a half shell. The cevice (? don't know how to spell it) was alright. It was a little overcooked so the texture was a little rubbery. The steamed clams in white wine and garlic are great! I would recommend!
