| - This review is only for the teppanyaki (hibachi grill) menu, since I haven't yet tried the regular menu yet.
Went there on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. After walking around Fremont Street and the crowd at the Punk Rock Bowling festival, we decided to get a bite to eat at Lillies at the Nugget. Nothing special. My first job as a kid was at Benihana, and if you've seen one hibachi grill, you've seen them all. This one was no exception. A bit on the boring side. At least the food tasted fresh. We had the chicken and shrimp entree. Pretty standard - soup, salad, rice, grilled vegetables. At least the chef (King Kong), was entertaining enough, and had a bit of a personality. I felt sorry for the people who were sitting across from us. Their chef got in and out as fast as he could. I don't remember if he made an attempt to entertain the diners. Service was so-so. The waitress seemed a little tired. Perhaps, I'll give Lillies another shot sometime in the future, since their regular menu sounds somewhat interesting.
Note to self: NO MORE HIBACHI!!!
