Granted Arizona Charlie's is a local's dive as far as casinos go, but it typically has a higher payout than most casinos. Considering the casino, I shouldn't expect much from its "steakhouse". Based on the medium range price of the menu items, I thought maybe it was a hidden gem. It is not.
I had the Porterhouse Pork Chop on the prix fixe menu. The potato soup was ok, very gravy-like and less soup like.I had a 6pm reservation, so it's not like it was the end of the day. Had to ask for the bread basket that was evident on other tables. I wanted to take my leftover soup home and when the server brought the container back, the outside had globbers of soup all over it. No attempt to wipe off the "dribbles".
The meaty 1-1/2 inch chop was under-cooked and tough. The demi glace on the top tasted like powdered gravy mix. Temperature of all the hot food was tepid.
Service was slow and careless.They weren't that busy and the place isn't all that big. The scant communication I had with the waiter was as he was walking passed the table. By the time I could catch his attention about the chop, I'd been waiting 30 minutes. At that point I no longer wanted to wait for the food to be remade. I ordered the desert and coffee, which were both marginal. After I'd pushed everything the to opposite side of the table and placed my credit card on the table, it took another 30 minutes to get the check and I had to ask for it too.
Epic fail Ron's.
