When a menu item has a note next to saying "speciality" and the place is touting its BBQ of course I'm going to order that. There are too many places that specialize in burgers and eggs to order that junk here. Well, I must give Rita's, despite the touristy atmosphere a decent nod on their brisket. It was sliced Texas style and was pretty tender with a choice of three sauces. I tried them all. Personally, I'm a good judge of brisket because I just ate at 36 diiferent BBQ places in the Southern USA while I was traveling for work. In the regards of those places, it doesn't come close, but this is Vegas and I can't recall finding much good brisket around town. It's $9.99 with a side dish (garlic red skinned potatoes needed more garlic) and a decent deal if your a brisket fan in the area. You can order at the bar too which makes it less lonely than grabbing a table inside.
OK, I will admit to using a lunch special coupon too, but it only saves you a $1 and on this visit I ordered the sloppy joe sandwich for $6.99. Honestly, I can't recall ever finding a sloppy joe on a menu in years and it was pretty tasty and a novelty to order. NOt sure how to make a sloppy joe stand out, but I will give the bun (toasted egg bun on both sandwiches) a huge plus.
