| - Hands down one of the best restaurants in Vegas! People are always surprised when we take them here because it's inside a casino off the strip in Palace Station. I would say it is a hidden gem if the wait weren't so long every single time.
Must-Have Foods: In general, the portions are huge, so I would recommend sharing unless you are really hungry.
-Cioppino: Bursting with flavor tomato stew with prawns and lots of spices. Absolutely delicious!
-Pan Roast: The house special. Lobster, shrimp, & crab in a rich cream based broth. It is very filling but so worth the stomach space.
-Steamed Clams: I could drink the white wine and herb broth it is so good.
-Oysters on the Half Shell: Fresh oysters served with cocktail sauce. Simple & fresh.
Wait: The wait is at least 30 minutes on a good day so get there early. Even if you have to wait over an hour, it's totally worth it. If the wait is really long, the Mexican restaurant next door sells huge yummy margaritas that always makes the wait seem shorter. ;)
Atmosphere: Once you're seated, you can chat with the chefs and watch them cook. They call it "live action cooking" - yes, Vegas terminology. Since you're sitting next to strangers, you're bound to chat it up with other loyal customers. Overall, it's a casual, fun and friendly place.
Service: The service could be better. There is usually 1-2 waiters for the entire bar that serves 25-30 guests and they take their sweet time. The food is so though good that the service is forgiveable.
