| - I try to find something new and different when I go on a trip.
In this case I was looking for an upscale burger joint. I think I found it.
We enjoyed an appetizer, a salad and a chicken burger, all of which we found delicious.
The appetizer was the Waffle Fry Nachos. They were described on the menu as "cheddar cheese sauce, sloppy joe, jalapenos" for 6 bucks.
When the nachos showed up, they could have been a meal in themselves. A heaping plate of waffle fries with a mound of "sloppy joe" (which seemed a lot like pulled pork to me) covered in cheese sauce. Next time I think I'll stop the the nachos. $6 was a good deal.
My wife ordered the Burger Cobb salad. After the waffle fry nachos, she really didn't have much appetite left but she soldiered on. She asked for and got the dressing on the side. It looked delicious and she agreed. But then, how can you screw up a salad? At $9 it was a good value.
I ordered the Buffalo Chicken breast sandwich. The bun was HUGE. And the check breast covered the entire bun! I'm impressed. The tomato slice, shaved onion (sliced thin enough to be almost transparent, about 1/16" thick), bleu cheese dressing, lettuce and pickles. The pickles looked to be scratch made (fresh cuke sliced and marinaded in vinegar) a real plus in my book. The sandwich was fantastic. I would have skipped the bleu cheese dressing and gone with just bleu cheese crumbles because the sandwich got really soggy by the end, a minor annoyance. Served with fries for $12 it seems like a reasonable price for the strip.
Only criticism, no beer on tap. Granted they have a humongous selection of bottled beer, but nothing on tap.
Overall, I would recommend KGB to my friends visiting Las Vegas.
Oh, and they have a vodka bar.
