I've tried most of the steakhouses at Boyd Gaming properties and this was the best. I made a reservation and was seated right on time.
My server was Mark and there was another person who was always at my table refilling my iced tea and water. She was a gem!
You're first brought a bread plate with a side bowl of pearl onion, olives, and artichoke hearts along with some pimento. The bread was already buttered but I'd have liked some extra. I could have asked but didn't.
I started with onion soup. They have a good version with a good broth. I ordered the 16 ounce New York Strip done blue and it was cooked perfectly--nice grill marks on both sides and very rare interior. The steak was tender and had just the right amount of salt sprinkled on it before grilling. I got a side of house fried potatoes that are coated with garlic, parmesan and butter. They were really good but it's meant for sharing as are most steakhouse sides.
For dessert, I went with the warm apple dumpling served with a scoop of Lapperts salted caramel ice cream.
I was very pleased with my meal here. The music was non-descript and not loud. The room got a bit noisy when it was almost full. There were two tables of large parties that all couldn't sit at one and there was another table for a birthday gathering. It was a happy noise and not distracting or a bother at all.
