I enjoy this bar/restaurant for taking out of town company to give them a taste of something off-strip. Also a great place to watch Packer games. Almost like being home in Wisconsin in terms of the energy and game day atmosphere. It had been a couple months since I'd gone here and I happened upon a slew of negative reviews. I had to check it out to see if one of my favorite places in Las Vegas had really fallen apart. I'm told the other locations had closed and this review does not reflect or comment on that. That's a business matter for the owners to speak on and not the yelping public.
The menu is the same menu I remember. I enjoy the cheese curds, Big Dog's salad, and Bratzel quite a bit. The cheese curds are the closet thing to Wisconsin cheese curds I've had here in Las Vegas. The Bratzel is a beautiful creation of cheeseburger, bacon and brat. The big dog's salad is an excellent mexican style salad. On my most recent visit I had the chicken friend steak. The chicken fried steak was one of the better renditions of the dish I've had in town.
We dined in the dining room and our server (I want to say Lynn?) was excellent. Long story short, I'm not quite sure where all the recent hatred for Big Dog's has come from.
