| - We LOVE this place and don't know why we don't come here more often when we are in Vegas.
This review is in two parts, the restaurant and the lounge.
THE RESTAURANT
Mirrors, fake Cherry Blossom trees, red and blue neon... what's not to love?
Service here is very good, prompt and friendly. Proportions can be ridiculously large!
On the night we went, we had plans for later in the evening and I didn't want to be too full... so I was a little concerned due to the size of their servings. I ordered the cheeseburgers sliders which came with home made Yukon Gold Potato chips. The sliders were... sliders, nothing spectacular, but the chips were awesome though I could not finish them. My wife had the chicken pesto sandwich with onion rings, both of which she LOVED.
We returned a couple of days later for breakfast where I had the country fried steak and eggs which was good, though again I could not finish it (and I am a BIG eater) and she has the French Toast Ambrosia... which was ridiculously large! It was so big a lady from the next table asked if she could take a picture of it!
I also noticed the gentleman across from us ordered the fruit plate which was not at all a fruit plate, it was a produce bar stacked on a plate! I am not kidding, your could easily get your full eight servings of fruits and vegetables in one meal!
This place is a little pricy, however in most items you get enough to make two (if not more) meals. Proportionally speaking it is very reasonable.
THE LOUNGE
We freakin' LOVE this lounge! Again chrome and mirrors, red and blue neon, red velvet booths, and a fire spewing, boiling water fire pit! I have always thought this would be exactly the kind of place where swingers would meet up prior to their assignations!
The waitresses all wear cocktail dresses which are very nice. They prohibit you from wearing hats of any kind calling it their "dress code" but there are always people in there dressed in shorts and t-shirts so I am not too what the boundaries of this "code" are.
They have a really cool menu advertising "retro" drinks like champagne cocktails, Manhattans, and scorpions in big bowls. I ordered a Vodka Gimlet (which seems more and more to becoming an endangered species as far as bartenders go) and our friend ordered a Beautiful. Both drinks were made correctly with no questions asked.
Again this place can be pricy. In fact we spent more here in the same amount of time as we did at Treasures, a very high end strip club.
Money aside, I would find a reason to go to Vegas just to hang out at the Peppermill Fireside Lounge.
The ONLY reason i don't give it 5 stars is the cost.
Edit: My wife's preferred drink this weekend was a Pina Colada. She wanted me to point out that the Peppermill was the ONLY establishment that served her PC in a hurricane glass as it SHOULD be. It may not seem important but it shows that they pay attention to the details.
