| - According to the news, did you know that two people have died eating here? To be fair though, I'm sure people die in restaurants all the time. I think this restaurant gets the publicity because of their name. So with that being said, let me start my review.
If you are totally sober and coming here for a gourmet burger and fries then you will be truly disappointed. If you got the drunk munchies and/or want a possibly cool and unique experience then take risk and try this place.
LOCATION - As my wife and I were strolling along near the end of Fremont street (Past the "D" hotel) and we noticed a huge scale and a sign stating "350lbs and over eat free". Then we noticed the name, Heart Attack Grill. I was immediately intrigued because I have never seen a restaurant advertise their establishment can possibly kill you. Most other places (Not going to mention names) that rhyme with onalds hide it.
ENVIORNMENT - So we walk in to be immediately greeted by the host. He then makes us put on a hospital gown and bracelet tag. FYI..the gown goes over your clothes. You don't have to get naked. We opt to sit at the counter because there is a gigantic screen behind the bar that plays famous youtube videos. This is one of the videos showing at the time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg The rest of the establishment is pretty big but the floors looked like it needed mopping. Almost like some real hospitals. I think the fact that the female servers are dressed in the old fashion nurse uniforms who give people spankings gives this scene a better experience. Too bad real hospitals don't do that though.
FOOD - The name Heart Attack matches the food they serve. They have 4 burger stages ranging from single bypass (1/2 pound) all the way up to quadruple by pass which is 2 pounds (What the people who died were eating). We decided on the single bypass because I was just there more for the experience and not a great tasting burger or to die. A Fatty, oily, greasy and messy burger is exactly what I was expecting and that is exactly what we got. I must admit that it lacked seasoning which made it flavorless and boring. However, I can't dock them too much on that because the burger comes with crispy bacon. Nuff said..
Tip - If you get the Jello shot, it comes in a plastic syringe that you get to keep. Good for frosting your cakes. The shot is pretty strong.
SERVICE during our time was very good. To be fair, it could have been because we were the only ones at the bar. Our server/bartender was friendly, prompt and knowledgeable. She also told us that their burgers are not as unhealthy as they advertise them to be or as everyone thinks. According to her, hey actually don't use lard.
OVERALL I would stay this place is a solid 3 1/2 stars for me but I was torn on my rating because I had great service, and I enjoyed the experience. However, I don't think this is a place I would come back to unless I had to. I know that sounds contradicting but I am basically saying that it's a place worth trying at least once.
*CASH ONLY* - I know..that's a little weird.
