Always have loved this place but now love it more after seeing Hubert Keller on Top Chef Masters. 8-) 4.5 stars Note to SF folk: they just opened one in Macy's Union Square--yeay!
Cost to worth it rating: 3 (burgers start ~$10, specialty burgers are more)
Return worthiness: yes (I go at least once each Vegas trip)
Highlights:
- Peppercorn burger: yummy rich sauce from Fluer de Lys recipe served on the side so you can pour to your liking. I added blue cheese crumbles to take it over the top. As a pepper fiend, I actually could've used a bit more pepper on the actual burger. :-o
- Ranchers meat (or something like that): as the second level up, it's definitely worth the $1 upgrade. The hub got the standard and I could tell the difference in pure meat flavor as well and juiciness.
- Seasoned bacon: peppered and jalapeño are options
- Jalapeño fried pickles: couldn't taste the spice so much but they were great and like that they were spears
- Make your own: array of toppings including regular things like a selection of cheese to not so mainstream like fried egg and pickled beets
- Open late: weekends til 2am
- Sweet potato fries: thin, crispy
- Veev acai spirit lemonade: not too sweet, interesting dynamic with antioxidants in an alcoholic beverage--wonder if they cancel each other out ;-)
- Personal tv in booths: great for sports days
- Milkshakes: come all sundae style pretty with the hugest straws ever, also come in alcoholic versions which is great for sin city
Lowlights:
- TV options: wish could switch channel and they had the direct ticket
Love this place and remains my casual Vegas staple so I'll be back.
