| - While strolling down the strip with a couple friends, a collective stomach growl could be heard and we all decided that food was in order, and fast! We looked across the street and the newly opened Serendipity was calling the names of the ladies in the group; with its bright pink sign and memories of the darling movie which bears the same name. So we sauntered over and were told there was a 20 minute wait. For a Friday night in Vegas, 20 minutes is a blink of an eye. We were called in less than half that time and taken in to be seated. The inside of the restaurant is a little girls dream; pink and blue recessed ceilings, huge colorful light fixtures, and a giant bright pink clock. The menu is fairly extensive for a place that I would have considered more of a dessert spot. The actual food items are MASSIVE. I kid you not, some of the largest items of food I have ever seen given to one person. The sweet potato fries that accompany the entrees are to die for. If you like them even in the slightest, I urge you to give these a shot. They are sprinkled with some sort of cinnamon/sugar/salt combo that is just divine. I ordered the chicken strips (lame I know) because I wasn't feeling all that well and wanted something I could trust. They were actually wonderful and came with three sauces for dipping. My tablemates ordered the worlds largest hot dog California style, a Turkey club that was the size of a VW Bug and a take on a caprese sandwich that weighed as much as a newborn baby. Everything was truly delicious. The drinks from the bar that we ordered (a cranberry mojito) were a little on the weak side, but I think that's what I've come to expect in this fair city. All in all, we had a great meal. The service was great until the waitress dropped a dish down my back. Luckily it was empty and only left crumbs and small food smear. Could have been much worse. I would dine here again for more than one reason, but the biggest one being - we didn't have dessert!! Shameful, trust me, I know. But we were all so stuffed from the massive portions. Good food for sure.
