| - Well....I don't normally like big bones country men undressing me with their eyes, but it is hard to avoid that here. No, it's not what you think....But there are A LOT of life sized, and larger posters, murals, standing figurines and videos of the country start at this establishment...Many of them featuring his trademark "Come Hither Cowboy" look.
Other than the creepiness....This sports bar type place was a welcome surprise. Searching for a non-buffet, non-fast food dining option gets hard sometimes during a busy trade show at the adjoining property and I was happy to stumble upon Toby Keith's I love this Bar and Grill. It DOES get VERY crowded on Thurs-Fri and Sat nights so be warned...But for the most part it is a country themed casual eatery with an upbeat vibe.
The service both at the tables and at the bar was good, even when busy. The waiters are pretty good ad describing some of the more "eclectic" items on the menu such as the fired bologna sandwich or the fried macaroni balls. The food was, I would say, a slight improvement on a Chili's or TGI Fridays type Americana type offering. Several fried southern surprises, as mentioned above...But I had both some appetizers, a salad and a burger, and all came as I ordered and were tasty and a good value. A great combination. HOWEVER, they do offer the "100oz Challenge" which, as I had heard was a giant burger, fried and beer..All totaling a combined 100 ounces. This is one of those John Canyd type challenges where you get a "hootn and a hollerin" reception when you ordered it, and a TShirt and Polaroid if you finish it...And a double bypass in a year or two.
All in all a great dining, and drinking option tucked away in Harrahs Las Vegas. Keep up the good work...Yall!
