| - What a hidden, clazzy (that's class + snazz), Vegas gem! I stubbled upon their very-newly-established happy hour and am so glad I did! A new addition to the C-Club offerings, from 5-7PM Wed-Sat, the place was nearly empty last Wednesday when we waltzed inside. A bit underdressed (by my standards), I was happy that we were greeted by a smiling hostess who quickly seated us at the bar. The two 'tenders were fun and not at all stuffy like you'd think one might encounter at this beautiful spot overlooking the 19th hole. (The bartender resembling Christina Applegate was especially sweet to us over the couple hours we were here.)
During HH, the bar offers Cruzan Light Rum or Skyy Vodka cocktails for $7 in addition to specialty cocktails, $7-$8, and select beers, $4. Small bites are priced from $3.50 - $8 and shared plates start at $18.
No details were overlooked. My happy hour cocktail selection was a little boring, so I decided to go with a safe bet follow-up (for me, at least) - a French 75 (definitely not on the HH menu - but I didn't care). It fizzed perfectly and the sweetness of the champagne was apparent through the gin; perfect.
The goat cheese-stuffed peppers (on the HH menu) were delicious, though very small.
The service here sets it apart. Of all the Strip spots we chose to venture in to this past week, I wrote about the Country Club first. So, that should show where it stands with me - right at the top!
Can't wait to return on my next Vegas excursion!
