| - I wanted to "like" this place more, but nothing says "no thank you" more than Sysco products.
Brief Summary
-- Spin off location from the original Pink's in Hollywood
-- Located on the LV Strip & only has outdoor seating
-- Not for the cheap of heart
-- Say NO to the chili or say yes to the toilet
-- Bring your OWN ketchup // condiments
I've seen Pink's featured on Food Network before. So when my friends suggested we go there for lunch, I was down!
Luckily we got here right before the huge lunch rush. You can imagine the line getting very long during a busy hour on the LV Strip.
--- Our Order ---
** Pinks Lemonade (no alcohol) -- It was delicious, GET IT!
** Chili Dog & Chili Cheese Dog -- PASS, the chili is definitely the East Coast style that is mostly just greasy meat/beef. The cheese didn't taste real, must have been some "Sysco" cheese matter. This stuff stuck to my ribs and made me want to "yack" later that night. My tummy was hurting. The dog was good, I ended up just eating it alone.
** Chili Cheese Fries -- I ate these before the dog and they were mostly good because I was so hungry. Again the chili is just greasy meat, not really the ranch style chili (if that's what you like).
My biggest complaint about Pink's is that they ONLY have Sysco Ketchup which is very DISGUSTING. It doesn't even taste like tomatoes or ketchup, it just looks like it. On top of that, it's more of a thick paste then a sauce. I seriously wish I could have gotten some Heinz!
This place got a 1 star bump for my friend's polish with pastrami that I tasted. Although, it was kind of dry and in need of mustard, the flavors were there and it was juicy and hot.
I won't be back here any time soon, but I hope to try the original in Hollywood!
