| - And this was the beginning of the Creole steamer cuisine addiction for me and my love.
After numerous recommendations from Vegas-holics, we decided to try this place. I was very skeptical... "How could a seafood soup-y thingie be so wonderful? What's with all the hype?" Little did I know, this one trip would change our culinary lives...
First of all, I wanted to leave after standing a half hour in line in the middle of Palace Station to sit around a counter... After we were sat, and got our sourdough rolls, my tune changed entirely!
We ordered the House Pan Roast, a bowl of Clam Chowder, and some Oyster Shooters. All three were absolutely amazing! The flavor of the seafood soup-y thingie AKA House Pan Roast was unlike any other dish I had tasted before. The clam chowder was thick, full of flavor, and delicious! The oysters were so fresh...
Half of the fun here is watch the servers cook with the steamers and prepare the oyster shooters. They were really friendly and fun, and made the night so enjoyable!
Although we love the Vegas Oyster Bar, we now frequent The Boiler (http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-boiler-chino-hills#hrid:o0b5YAfN8Ndd7t8lNhtz6Q) in our area, which is run by Chef Ritter who started the Vegas location. No more waiting awkwardly in a casino, smelling cigarette smoke - this location is much bigger, with the same amazing of food, if not more (although I do miss those amazing sourdough rolls from the Vegas location... and oyster shooters)!
