You are on your way back from seeing Hoover dam/ Boulder dam
( a must stop on the Vegas travel itinerary) and you are hungry.
You see the railroad pass casino.
The sign that catches your eye is 7.99 T-Bone Steak Special.
It just says OLD style VEGAS.
and ....you are hungry.
Looking like a white glorified truck stop as evidenced by all the "big rigs" parked in the lot - the Railroad Pass Casino looks is if it is built right into the hillside.
It has easy access from the highway.
Inside - your vision of "truck stop" is slightly augmented by the slot machines and few blackjack tables.
You make your way past Leroy's sports book and you find the Iron Rail cafe....... Old style Vegas.
Nothing fancy, just comfortable booths and tables.
The T bone steak is very good and the whole experience says "old style Vegas."
The real secret in the Railroad Pass Casino is the Conductors Room - a very nice dining area with supurb Prime Rib, but since it was not open, the Iron Rail will do.
Nostalgic ...... and very nice food - the steak was large, cooked very well and that baked potato came in its own silver foil.
Totally enjoyable ....
For the price - absolutely enjoyable.
