For a burger place, you can't beat the prices and the view. Thanks Mario and the other "B" (I know, the other B is for Joe Bastianich, Lidia's famous son!) for bringing this burger joint to Vegas! We had several menus items and all were excellent! Dinner included:
Fried Pickles - very good, batter was tasty, not soggy, and fried perfectly. Highly recommend if you like sweet pickles.
Eggplant Parmesan Hero - we opted for a non-burger mainly because I love eggplant parmesan and wanted to see how Mario and Joe decided to prepare this sandwich. I've eaten a few of these in my lifetime and would rate this as a pretty good rendition served on a ciabatta roll. The eggplant was fried and not too greasy and there was just about the right amount of marinara sauce. Nice and fresh buffalo mozzarella and the fresh basil pesto gave it a nice mellow taste. I would order this hero again at this restaurant.
Side of Onion Rings - again, like the pickles, the onion rings were crispy and not soggy!
Side of Slaw - had peanuts in it and dressed with a light dressing that wasn't overdone.
Tip for locals and visitors alike: visit during the week and ask for an outside table.
Oh, almost forgot to mention...best Manhattan I've had in a casino restaurant in quite some time. Posting pictures now.
