| - This place is definitely underrated. Quick and friendly service with great tasting food! I was coming here thinking it'd be another Ellist Island, but I was so pleased with it all!
Located inside the Gold Coast, you'll have to walk through all the smoke, all the slots, and people just drowning in their gambling debts. This place is old school gambling compared to the newer places built on the strip. But, the food at the Cortez Room has been one of the better places I've eaten in Vegas!
I've tried food from the most expensive restaurants and buffets to the cheapest and lousiest dining places in Vegas. I can tell you, steak here is not as good as I've had at N9NE or at any place that marks their meat from $30-60, but it blows Ellis Island out of the water (Ellis Island being the worst place to eat in Vegas).
A 10oz prime rib dinner, with salad, and a side of potatoes will cost you $15. The meat was juicy, tender, and cooked exactly the way I expected it to be: medium rare. My only complaint goes to the salad. I ordered my salad with the house dressing and my salad was swimming in a pool of dressing. It was so sour, I couldn't finish it. But the complimentary bread is great especially with the dips they give you.
As for the service? They were sweet and attentive but that might be because they knew people we were dining with. It's nice and cozy inside with old school decor. I'll be coming back here when I'm in need of an inexpensive food and good service!
