| - I would have loved to give this place 1 more star... However our food came out almost an hour after ordering. The servers (2 ladies) were very nice but that doesn't make up for how late our food was. We were very patient, but an apology for the lateness would have been nice.
When we arrived, the place was about 1/2 full. Cute little diner inside an old casino (Eureka Casino)... As you walk into the casino to get to the diner, there's like a wall of cigarette smoke that hits you... Not like the newer casino/hotels, but fortunately the diner wasn't so bad. It's pretty clean, cute decor with a few booths, few tables and some bar seats.
The menu is a mix of American diner foods and Chinese foods. I heard about this place from my brother so wanted to check it out. We ordered coffee (which was really good), duck bao, fried duck rice and sesame noodles. The sesame noodles came out first. It's a vegetarian dish but you can add meat if you like. We had it veggie style. It's peanuty and has a good amount of veggies in it. However I did think the noodles were a bit over cooked. Still good though, but not spectacular.
The duck bao came out next. They tasted a lot better than they looked. The fried duck rice came out last. We both stared at the dish in confusion. We thought it was a fried rice dish but was a duck and rice place with a side salad. We got a fried egg with the plate, which was a bit over cooked. This dish was just ok. The bao was definitely the best out of all the things we ordered.
Overall food was ok, nothing spectacular and just took waaaaaaay too long to get to our table. If they continue this way, might be hard to survive. Seemed like there were issues in the kitchen. Like I said servers were super nice but no apology for lateness. Not sure if I'd travel off the Strip to eat here again.
