It's the little things that bring me here like their Fried Green Tomatoes and my mom not wanting to leave the slots so I figured we should do dinner while we wait. This Luciille's is in the Red Rock Casino so if you are with people who are gambling you can simply sit it out and have a meal instead.
When ever I come here I start with the Fried Green Tomatoes because it's rare that I find it in any of the restaurants I go to. Truthfully ever since I read the book " Fried Green Tomatoes " in high school I've liked this dish and it's trouble some to make so I'm glad Lucilles offers this as an appetizer. The tomatoes are fried in what looks like cornmeal it's crispy and the sauce is cream based. I doubt if they are fried in bacon grease like it states in the book but hey are still delightful!
I decided to get another appetizer so I can get exactly what I want so I ordered their fried shrimp. I know that it is two fried things in a row but trust me I'm southern at heart! I prefer their mustard dip to the tarter sauce because it's has a little more kick to it.
It was my birthday month so my husband mentioned my birthday and they also sent out a colorful birthday treat . Chocolate cake , vanillia ice cream with sprinkles ! Yum!
Our server was awesome he kept checking on us and tended to everything we needed from more bread , refills etc. He also packed us more bread and honey butter to go. Excellent service !
