| - The wife mentioned that she wanted to have some gumbo, so I googled, "best gumbo in las vegas". Oyster Bar at Palace Station came up as the top result. Got there about 9:30pm, but didn't get seated until after 10:30pm. This place is small, (I think it only seats about 15 or so people). Long wait, old smokey casino - what better way to spend your time after a long day at work ;) After finally getting seated, I ordered the Etouffee with a spicy level of 8. Wife got the gumbo. They cook everything in front of you, (by the way, the Filipino cook kinda resembled Deuce Bigalow). I'm glad I waited because that stuff was off the hook! It was a huge bowl, with a scoop of rice. I managed to inhale the whole thing in about 15 minutes. It was at that time that my wife noticed me eying her gumbo and immediately pulled her bowl away from me - i wanted to finish that one off too! The servers are nice and friendly. The only thing I regret not doing is getting another order to go. My wife couldn't finish hers and took it to go. Unfortunately for her, she woke up late the next morning, and the gumbo was calling my name! I think I'll be going here at least once a month. For those of you who want your kids to experience the food here - too bad, gotta be at least 21 to sit at the bar. Get 'em an order to go.
