| - 3.5 stars, but if not for the mishaps, the food warranted a solid 4 stars. I would characterize Salted Malted Bakery & Creamery as a place where you can eat dessert for dinner. This definitely is a dessert place, but don't sleep on their savory offerings. I didn't, which is why my review is more positive than it could have been.
If you're visiting Las Vegas and are looking to eat somewhere that isn't a buffet or on the busy strip, take a drive out to North Las Vegas to check out Salted Malted. Salted Malted is owned by a Canadian lady, who according to one of the staff, passed down her recipes for the desserts and savory food. The decor inside Salted Malted has a Canadian slant as their are Canadian flags hanging on the walls, Canadian figurines depicting life in Canada, and a framed Obama picture where the former President is questioning what poutine is. There are a few tables and chairs where you can enjoy your food, but it would be hard pressed to accommodate a large party. Salted Malted also pays homage to America with their pictures of American icons. It really has a homey, cute ambience inside. I loved the picture right above the ice cream cold box depicting a cow talking to a carton of milk saying, "Milk, I am your father."
The main reason why I would have rated Salted Malted with less than desirable ratings was it running out of stuff that a dessert place should never run out of. My daughter ordered a banana split, but after placing the order, the employee helping us told us that they ran out of bananas. My wife ordered a cookie sundae, but they ran out of several styles of cookies she wanted. Their excuse was that on this President's Day Monday, they got swamped. A dessert/ice cream place should never run out of bananas and cookies. Salted Malted's saving grace was their poutine fries with Canadian bacon. OMG!!! Their poutine fries are of the must order variety. I was a poutine fries virgin and after my first time experience, I am so glad I devoured this Canadian superstar of a dish. For the uninformed, poutine fries is drenched with finger licking good gravy, packed with thick, yummy cheese curds, engulfed with a healthy amount of Canadian bacon, all of which cover thick cut, seasoned fries. Poutine fries, where have you been all my life?!!!???? I can confidently say that this dish was the best thing I ate during our 4-day stay in Las Vegas.
Salted Malted could have easily been a 5 star Yelp establishment, which practically has this rating from the Yelp reviewers who have eaten here. For me, I took them down a notch based on them running out of dessert essentials and for not anticipating being busy on a holiday Monday. Salted Malted redeemed itself with its Canadian awesomeness of a dish aka poutine fries. Loved this dish, eh?
