After having the pleasure of eating here during a Yelp Elite event, it was only a matter of time before I would find myself enjoying the food once again. Check out the Yelp Elite Vegas page for even more reviews of this cool spot inside the Silverton Casino. The location gets pretty packed and seating is first come first serve. Order right up front at the cashier and wait til they bring out your food.
This time we ordered their version of Pad Thai, a Wonton Noodle Soup, Gyoza, and Pork Belly Steamed Buns.
My wife's chicken pad thai was delicious to me albeit a bit too spicy for my wife's liking. As far as I know, there is no variation of spicy level to choose from but I suppose asking for a milder or non-spicier version would be suggested next time. We tried to ask for some peanut sauce to drizzle over the pad thai but they did not have any. (Alas, this is Chinese and not a Thai restaurant)
Their wonton noodle soup was good but could use a little more salt to flavor the broth. The wonton dumplings were of good quality filled with decent amount of stuffing and the thin noodles were plentiful.
The gyoza was standard but the smoky hot chili oil elevates it. You also have some of the best hot mustard made here as well as red chili sauce.
The pork belly steamed buns are a must for me. Three ample sized slow-cooked pieces of pork belly bursting with flavor hugged by a pillow of soft chewy goodness in the steamed bun. They hit this dish way out of the park.
Next time you make your way to Silverton Casino, stop by here for a pretty delicious meal! I'll also recommend the duck. Had that during the Y.E.E. and it was excellent.
