| - Holy crap, I finally found a great place to eat in Boulder City!
I travel through this area fairly regularly for work, and I love Boulder City, despite my Abbeyesque attitude toward dams. But I haven't had great luck with the restaurants here, so I keep trying something new every time I stay. I think I finally hit the jackpot!
This place had the best damned spanikopita I've ever had in my life. Next time I'm in Boulder City, I may just come here and get five orders of spanikopita. The Boss mumbled something about it needing more layers of phyllo, but he certainly didn't hesitate in consuming his half of the appetizer. And why would you want more phyllo when you can have more delicious spinach and cheese?
I think we'd have appreciated our entrees more if we hadn't stuffed ourselves with the amazing spanikopita. Have I mentioned enough times yet how awesome the spanikopita was? The Boss had a vegetarian pasta type thing, which he enjoyed. I had a gigantic, bloody rare prime rib and baked potato with butter and sour cream, which Boss probably did not enjoy watching me eat. But I sure as hell enjoyed eating it.
The prime rib was very slightly tough (possibly my fault for ordering it rare), and it didn't come with au jus. Those are my only *extremely* minor complaints. I'd have given Evan's 4.9 stars if that were an option. I ate every last bite of that leftover prime rib with my bare hands on the road home the next day, and I thoroughly enjoyed every last molecule of it.
Evan's will be my preferred dinner place in Boulder City from now on.
