A great, non-pretentious, casual dining experience at the Phoenician. Loved the gourmet burger menu but even better where the off-season specials. One of the best resort values I've seen in a long time.
Service - A+ (extremely courteous and prompt attention)
Burgers - $18-$19
But this evening's specials:
Craft Beers - $4 (try multiple local draft beers)
Burger & Dessert - $20 combo special.
I ordered the Cobb burger, which had generous strips of thick cut bacon, maytag blue cheese and lettuce/tomato. Burger was cooked perfectly (medium) and the tatter tots were hot & crispy. Only drawback was the potato bun (i think) was a little greasy but flavors very good.
My wife had the Blue Burger and and very similar to the Cobb burger. Can't go wrong with either.
The only minor disappointment where the chicken nachos, which were hefty portions served in a piping hot skillet but the bbq sauce tasted store bought. Would have liked less bbq sauce and more mexican flavor.
For dessert we had the apple cobbler with vanilla ice cream & caramel sauce. So much food I couldn't finish but a great end to a very nice dinner.
While not on the special menu, the table next to us ordered the Flaming Smores and what a cool presentation - which a live fire pot brought right to your table to roast your marshmallows. One of those wow deserts.
A nice combination of up-scale dining and evening specials.
