| - SWEET!
With all the calories that could be potentially consumed at any TCF location, dining at TCF is a bonafide treat (for me, personally). My mom and I both love cheesecake, and therefore we couldn't pass up the chance of dining at this location.
LOCATION / SETTING:
The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace near the aquarium. Restaurant is 2 floors, with some seating on the first floor having views of the aquarium and Atlantis Show.
side NOTE:
We actually visited this location twice during our vacation last month. The first time for take out cheesecake from their counter, and the 2nd for lunch on our last day.
FOOD:
The menu is enormous! So much choices/selections....and that's just the dessert section. The menu has appetizers, salads, sandwiches, entrees, pastas, etc. Even for the most finicky of eaters, I'm sure there must be something on this menu that is appealing.
After some time, we decided on the egg roll sampler, while my mom chose the Shepard's Pie, my brother selected the super oxidant salad, and I ordered the BBQ chicken salad (lunch portion). For drinks, my mom and I ordered coffee, and my brother was all smiles when the server confirmed they could make him a Bloody Mary.
The egg rolls were ok. They were a bit more oily than I expected, but I shouldn't have been surprised since we ordered fried food for an appetizer. Not sure if I would order this again. Thereafter, our entrees were delivered to the table, and I am so happy there were lunch sizes available because my salad seemed (to me) as if it were a FULL SIZE order. It was massive! It was just enough for myself, but unfortunately I couldn't bring myself to finish it. If I were to order this again on a future visit, I would probably ask for no fried onions/onion rings (it just seemed a bit excessive to me). My brother enjoyed his salad and finished the entire serving. My mom, on the other hand, found her choice to just be mediocre. In hindsight, she admitted she should have chosen something else such as a salad or sandwich.
Lastly, the cheesecake (like always) was very satisfying. We ordered (at the take out counter) one slice each of the key lime and pumpkin seasonal cheesecake. I felt we needed to order the pumpkin since its a seasonal flavor, and we both concurred that both slices weren't overly sweet.
SERVICE:
Very exceptional. The hostess was friendly and seated us immediately (we arrived at around 1045 am on a Saturday; the restaurant opened at 10am that day). Our server was a friendly and knowledgeable woman, who answered all our menu questions, and periodically checked on us throughout our meal.
One last thing to mention: the staff at the take out counter were polite and very efficient.
BOTTOM LINE:
Convenient (take a break while shopping!) and spacious location. Great service. Delicious desserts! Yay Cheesecake!
