| - I never knew there was a Bulgarian restaurant in Las Vegas, so when I heard about it, I had to try it. Hidden away next to a neighborhood near Sunrise Hospital, it is actually a two-unit operation. There is the restaurant on the left and the pizza joint on the right. I didn't try the pizza, but isn't pizza always good?
When we sat down, they brought us some hot bread that was a nice touch. Looking over the menu, the prices stood out as very reasonable, but we had never heard of anything, so we asked the waitress for some recommendations.
We started off with the fried zucchini covered in a yogurt dill sauce. It was good, but it seemed like there was a disproportionate amount of sauce. It went well with the bread though, so we were able to put it to good use. For our entrees, we had two dishes. I didn't write down the names, but the first was the first was pork with sauteed onions and peppers. The pork had a very unique yet subtle taste that I think may have been olive juice. The second was chicken, stuffed with mushrooms and carrots, with melted cheese on top and fries on the side. Both were good, but it still seems strange that it came with fries. I guess I was expecting a side that was a little more...Bulgarian.
Total bill was $34.67 with tip. I didn't know they shared a credit card machine with their pizza operation next door, so I was a little taken aback though when I handed her my credit card and she walked out the front door with it. No worries though. It wasn't shady like the Cottage Cafe.
Magura was good and worth checking out. I don't think anyone would be disappointed, but it's nothing I would go out of my way for again.
