  • Last night we went to dinner at the REPUBLIC KITCHEN AND BAR , basically because we had a GROUPON that was about to expire. We haven't been there before. We easily found the place with a large parking area. We walked in to a nice open dining area and on through a large doorway into the main room where a very friendly Hostess checked our reservation and took us to our seats. I am in a wheelchair and she put us at a nice table in an open area. She quickly removed the chair from the table where I wanted to sit and I rolled right into place. When we were seated we met Jeff Kovatch, a "Jersey Boy" who is part owner and was this evening's "Front of the House" Manager. Our Waiter arrived quickly to offer us menus and take a drink order. He kept a close eye on us all night. This room is beautifully decorated. This spacious room was the bar. On the back wall and part of the left side of the room was an amazing black bar area with a lot of crystal and lighting. Wonderful premium spirit and wine bottles decorated the shelves and just added to the visual "WOW" effect of the room. This was impressive. Although we had looked at the web page before we left home and had already decided on our choices we again looked at the menu. OK, I changed my mind. Libby ordered short ribs. This came with potatoes and vegetables. The main part was a huge short rib that was cooked to the consistency of a fine pot-roasted piece of beef. The gravy on Libby's dish made us both want a loaf of bread for sopping and insuring we removed ever trace of what had been in the bowl. I was originally going to have the salmon dish but, I opened the menu and there was a fresh Halibut that sounded good. When our Waiter arrive with dinner he set Libby's down and I just ogled it. That short rib looked fantastic. Then I looked at my plate. There was a beautifully cooked piece of Halibut. Sitting on top of a pile of couscous. I was impressed with the way it was offered. The couscous was cooked with a little citrus reduction, fine thin fresh asparagus, tomato pieces, and white corn that may have been shoe peg. I have never tasted couscous with this type of flavor mix. I would recommend it highly. My Halibut was browned nicely on the top and bottom. When I pushed into it with my fork a nice piece of the pure white and juicy fish came away. The fish had a fine clean feel with a wonderful taste. Yes, I did purr a little. We ended our meal with a very large piece of "fresh made daily" New York style Cheesecake and two forks. This dessert was absolutely a traditional New York type cheesecake. I found it wonderful and nostalgic. This item is too fine to eat as a dessert. This decadence needs to be a meal on it's own. Look at their web page and if you are "Local" go there. If you are a Tourist make it a point to get away from the "Strip" and take in REPUBLIC KITCHEN AND BAR. Everyone will love this place. We will be back there and it will be soon.
