| - After reading reviews on Trip Advisor and Yelp, I almost passed on this restaurant (mostly because of numerous poor reviews on Yelp. I'm very happy we decided to eat dinner here and don't know why those poor reviews exist. The service was truly excellent and the food was certainly very good. My wife had the open face hot turkey sandwich. She said it was very good; the gravy was excellent. I had the liver and onions. Most places don't offer that, and I love it if done well, so I tried it. The liver (all 3/4 lb of it) was cooked perfectly - done but not dry. There was a prodigious amount of sauteed onions atop the liver, again cooked perfectly with still some body to them. The steamed vegetables were done correctly - slightly al dente. The mashed potatoes were good, as was the mushroom gravy. The only thing that would have made the liver better was if it were fried in bacon drippings instead of oil. But, the two full slices of bacon on top were certainly sufficient. During our two years of travel throughout the United States, we have discovered numerous restaurants that use far too much salt. It was refreshing to find that I actually had to add just a little bit of salt to my dishes. In all, this was quite the enjoyable dinner - and the prices are excellent. Forget about the made-up poor reviews and try this place. It's worth it. Don't get me wrong; in Las Vegas, a true foodie city, there is nothing at Palace Station that one would consider a destination restaurant. But, if you are nearby, or staying there, the Grand Cafe is a worthy spot to eat.
