| - This place is EXACTLY what you want it to be... signs around the casino promise $7.99 prime rib dinners, $5.99 spaghetti and meat sauce... and that's exactly what you get!
We arrived at about 9 pm and were seated quickly. The restaurant isn't big, but it was alive and crowded and noisy. We were seated in the back room, casual booths and tables and a wall full of framed old San Francisco picture.
The food was okay. The food alone gets about 2.5 stars, but this isn't merely a restaurant, it's a dining experience in Old, Dirty Vegas.
White plates with ridiculous portions... No frills. I had the lasagna. It was greasy and cheesy and so so filling. My sister had the roast chicken, which was juicy and yummy. My friend had the prime rib, which was definitely on the fatty side, but flavorful.
The best part? Our waitress!!! Lorraine was perfect. I think she came from central casting. She was sassy, quick, had a comeback for everything and looked the part. I would go back for Lorraine alone. She's AWESOME! Lorraine brings this place up to four stars. Though the restaurant was busy, we were not rushed. Lorraine knew the dessert menu off by heart... pies, cakes and other diner fare.
Next time I'm back on Fremont Street, I'll probably head back to Bay City for some cheap eats with heavy atmosphere.
