| - Not sure if this place rates 3.5 or 4 stars just because it's tucked way back inside the Linq Casino, up some stairs and, at least the morning we went on a Thursday, demands a 30 - 40 minute wait. Had a similar experience at the one in Summerlin so it's probably just an indicator of the service and the FOOD.
It was so packed it was hard to see much except the crowd and the aforementioned wait had us edgy to get going on our drive back to LA, so I didn't have much time to take in the decor. Corrugated chrome and a farm gone slightly off seem to be the main theme. They even have a kiosk that lets you take a selfie to prove you waited a long time for breakfast in there. For such a high turnover of customers the serving staff are on fire. They keep your water and coffee full and they tell you they don't keep anything under heat lamps so your food comes out hot and fresh though all in all, I don't think we were waiting very long. Maybe 10 minutes tops?
The "off" theme, now that I consider it, must have something to do with aliens or government experiments with growth serums. The food portions are not generous. They're off the wall ENORMOUS! I knew this going in, so I suggested we split an entree. However, he wanted a pancake so we ordered a single blueberry pancake to go with the Fried Chicken and Eggs. Even so, the healthy sized chunk of fried chicken breast (their batter is SO good - didn't like it as much at Summerlin location), the pile of rich mashed potatoes over bacon, perfect over medium eggs and fluffy awesome biscuit had to be mostly transferred into a styrofoam box at meal's end along with half of the 16" x 2" blueberry pancake they amusingly call a side. Roughly $30 pays for about 5 - 6 meals!
