| - I haven't tried all the pancakes in the country or even enough for a strong statistical argument, but the pancakes were as good as I could make at home, which is unexpected. I had the "famous corned beef hash," which wasn't all that spectacular. Might've been made with canned corned beef.
The combination of the atmosphere (this is a very old casino downtown) and the pancakes made this a terrific breakfast spot. It they had good coffee, I'd give them five stars, but it's just institutional--though they did bring a pitcher of half and half with the first cup. Institutional coffee is more acceptable with cream and sugar.
The pie case, as others have noted, looked really appealing. If I get back, that will be what I have for breakfast. I noticed they had some breakfast specials, too, e.g., a pancake and bacon sandwich thing.
Parking in the area is kind of a problem, at least if you expect to not pay anything. Might as well park in the valet lot for the casino--if they validate your stub the first hour is only fifty cents. The tip is up to you, but it will probably be at least a couple more bucks if you're a real high rollin' Vegas kind of guy.
