| - Nice burger joint in The Mirage.
The price is a bit steep for burgers and fries, but that's no surprise given the location.
Buddy and I actually opted for the exact same meal so can't delve much into variety, unfortunately.
The BCB (Bacon Cheese Burger).
A fatty patty (like an inch and a half thick!) on a nice soft roll, doused in a creamy, dense cheddar sauce that was more along the lines of a fondue (which was awesome) topped with some nice smoked bacon and french fried onion straws.
It was a delicious dish, indeed...and the integrity of the bun was not undone by the massively juicy burger or creamy cheesy goodness swimming around inside.
Bonus.
This place is à la carte (again, no surprise there) so sides come separate.
I saw onion rings, sweet potato fries and regular fries walk by while waiting to order, and they all looked like good options.
However, when the waitress told me that the curly fries come seasoned, I was sold.
The amount of fries in a serving is actually quite formidable, they are delivered in a silver cup like an old timey diner or new timey gastropub. At first glance it looks pretty chintzy, but pour that sucker out and your plate is swarmed.
Easily enough to share.
The dining area is pretty wide open with a ton of big screen TV's spread amongst the walls.
As for the atmosphere, quite loud what with all the drunken Vegas roustabouts staggering by and the lack of a full partition between the tables and walkway.
All good though, makes for some great people watching.
The bill (after tip) came out to around $50 (I wanna say $15 each for the burgers $5 each for the fries and a couple bucks each for the soda).
So yeah, it's a little more expensive than the McPick 2 you can pick up across the street but that fast food can't even front.
