| - You would think Vegas would have a better food selection in their airport, but after spending 20 minutes walking through the terminal, Pei Wei ended up being the best choice.
I ordered the honey chicken. The cashier was not particular friendly. I personally know that working at the airport sucks (my first job was working at Starbucks at Sky Harbor), but a smile wouldn't have killed her.
I found a seat at the crowded bar and ordered a glass of wine while I waited for my meal to be brought out. The bartender asked me if I wanted 6 oz or 9 oz, and of course I went with the 9 oz. Then I got the check... $17 for a glass of wine! The wine was good, but not $17 good. I know it's the airport, but I had a double vodka soda at the Tucson airport for $11.
It took a while for my food to come out, but thankfully, one of the bartenders was super friendly and kept conversation going while I waited for my food. The food was okay. The chicken was pretty good, but the rice and crispy noodles were bland. But for $10 at the airport, you could do worse.
I think Pei Wei is probably your best bet at McCarran International. I would definitely sit at the bar. The bartenders were really nice, and so were the other patrons. It definitely helps take your mind off the fact that you are in one of America's ugliest airports.
