| - I LOVE the Market Street Cafe. LOVE. I've lived in Las Vegas for about 5 years and I've gone probably once a month for the past five years. I have not sampled a large selection from their menu because I stick to a couple of basic things.
1. Prime Rib Special. If I'm there after 4, there's no question about what I'll eat. Tasty prime rib, soup or salad, baked potato, green beans almondine and cherries jubilee for dessert. All for $7.99. It used to be $6.99, but the price went up about a year ago. Still, best prime rib special in town. In my dozens of times eating the prime rib, I can only remember being disappointed once. Even then, it was good and I didn't feel ripped off by paying eight bucks for it.
2. Things made with fish. If I'm not there in the evening, I stick to things made out of fish. The fish and chips, butterfish, etc are all pretty good. I've tasted catfish from friends' plates - also good.
Lunch and dinner specials all come with the salad bar or soup. The salad bar has declined in quality a little bit, but I think that's how they kept the prices low when food costs started rising. There used to be sushi and spinach and a few other things, but now those things are gone. It's pretty basic, but has more than enough to keep you happy - especially since it's not an additional charge with a daily special.
A few people have mentioned the service and I think it's really hit and miss. Sometimes it's awesome and your glass is refilled before it hits the table. Other times it can be tough to get someone to come over. The number of customers fluctuates so drastically that I think they have a hard time knowing how many servers to keep on the floor. Either way, I always leave happy.
