| - "There is one thing you should learn, when there is no one else to turn to, call for super chicken! (Cluck, cluck, cluck)". I know my super chicken reference will go over most's head, but it drives the point home for what yardbird has perfected: the chicken! Even as I type this I can still taste it and that's a marvelous thing.
With a few visits now under my belt I can honestly say I would not go anywhere else in Vegas for fried chicken (well maybe if someone can prove better chicken exists). The Palazzo has done right here for sure!
I'm so in love with their brunch menu and it's a shame they only offer it on the weekends. Thankfully most of the items on that menu are offered regularly, but someday I will have returned for the maple glazed bacon doughnut which I've yet to have, but keep an eye out for that picture down the road.
The first visit here I wasn't aware of the huge portions here so keep that in mind before doing a menu sample like I did (it caused me to have this as one meal the entire day). I began with their deviled eggs and I have to say these are some of the best around. As you can tell from my picture they are artistically presented and more important taste amazing! I can't quite put my finger on it, but I think it's the dill that made it burst out with flavor. Either way a must have item. Then silly me progressed on to the macaroni and cheese. The portion size will fool you as I thought it was small at first, but boy is that far from the truth. You'll be pleasantly plumped out and have to say the five cheese blend is the star here. Super gooey and another 5 star side for sure! If that wasn't enough I washed all this down with the chicken/watermelon/waffle trifecta. The cheddar cheese waffle surprisingly is not heavy and was perfectly crisped while still edging on the soft side. The spicy watermelon was definitely a new twist on things, but I thought it worked really well combined with everything. It gave the chicken a little kick while the sweet made you feel like you were on top of the world. The coup de gras here is definitely the fried chicken. It is moist as the southern humidity (hopefully that reference is understood) yet the breading is crisp as can be.
On my recent outing I twisted it up and had lunch yet again was pleasantly surprised with their crunchy Yardbird sandwich. I hate to say it, but I know this will put the next chicken sandwich I have to shame. Oddly enough it's the hot sauce that made the meal pop. It won't lead you to guzzling down gallons of water so that's certainly a plus. Another highlight was the bun. It truly was like eating a pillow. It was so soft and soaked up all the sauce to perfection! In closing I finally saved room for dessert and went with their banana pudding, but certainly I will be back for the cobbler to see if it's worth the hype. The sad part is I didn't prefer it to come out in the mason jar as I did find it a bit trying to get every morsel and I did leave chunks of things I couldn't get to because of it which was depressing. All in all though it's one of the better versions I've consumed. The house made banana chip is to die for as it wasn't overly sugary like most I'be been exposed to.
As I end this I can't help but flock to the same thought. The chicken is legit here and I am flapping wildly for a return visit sooner rather than later!
