| - Burgers and vodka in a KGB-themed restaurant owned/operated by Kerry Simon? Sign me up!
I've eaten here a couple of times and while service can range from spotty to awkward, it's never been outwardly horrible and I can overlook it in exchange for unique, tasty eats.
The portions here are huge, almost wastefully so, but I feel like I get my money's worth which is a good feeling to have at any restaurant in a Strip property. KGB offers your standard burger and toppings and then your not so standard burgers and quirky toppings. Amongst the defectors are lamb, salmon, veggie, short rib and chicken, some of which are nice options for non-beef eaters as well as a variety of cheeses, mayos and dressings. If you really want to get crazy here they have salads too.
I've had the fall orchard turkey burger (I think that's what it was called)-it had a nice combo of apples, pickled onions, brie and a sweet, likely mayo based sauce. Their sweet potato fries are killer and worth the upgrade. I've also had the buffalo chicken rolls which are a fun take on spring rolls with a blue cheese dipping sauce. The iron chef sliders are great too. I'm not big on desserts, but the captain crunch milkshake is nostalgically delicious. It's really like drinking frozen captain crunch milk!
As mentioned, the service can be a little dicey, but on my last visit they appeared to be understaffed which can be damning for a Saturday night. Our waitress was doing her best though and was friendly, so I can't really blame anyone but management.
I'd come here more often if Harrah's garage and layout wasn't such a sh*tshow, but maybe it's better that way. Or else I'd have a real problem.
