| - So we are at the end of our meal and do have a review to give.
1) I ordered the El Jefe- which is a chopped steak with peppers, onions, tomatoes, and home-fries served on a open-face flour tortilla with eggs. My first impression is the food is very bland. No seasonings whatsoever. I get that some places will not put salt or pepper due to "salty" complaints, but one should at least attempt to flavor their foods. The "chopped" steak looked like sliced beef you would use for a philly.
2) My fiancee order the Country Fried Steak and Eggs. Again, very bland, no seasoning. She couldn't even taste the seasoning in the batter used to fry the meat.
We also ordered the Half Biscuits and Gravy. Yet again, another let down. These biscuits are amazingly fluffy and airy.. very similar and highly comparable to Blue Berry Hills biscuits. The sad part came in their form of "gravy". Again, very bland and tasteless. It's almost a disgrace to put this "gravy" on these awesome biscuits.
We also tried the Short Stack Monkey Buiness Pancakes. Yep!! You guessed it! No flavor at all either. The pancakes are supposed to be peanut butter batter... this has to be the blandest pancake batter I have ever tasted.
Whenever we go to a new place to eat, I always try to sit by the kitchen. The cleanliness of the kitchen is always an indicator of the type of food service coming out of it. We sat right by the opening of the kitchen entry (open entry, no doorway) and the first thing we noticed is how dirty the floor is. Yes, I know a working kitchen is supposed to have a dirty floor, but it looks like they do not sweep the floor all day until close to closing time. By the amount of food and trash on the floor, one would assume this kitchen does 300+ covers a day.
My kids had the kids bacon and eggs and the chicken fingers with fries. (Chicken fingers and fries, best tasting food on our table- frozen premade foods).
Now, before you crunch up your face, get upset, and say "these are just crappy customers with no sense of taste".. I have been in culinary for 16 years. My fiance is currently in culinary. We both hold management position at two of the biggest hotel/casinos on the strip.
This is just my honest review of this place.
