| - We were going to be at the Golden Nugget Hotel to see a show. We decided that we would get an informal, inexpensive dinner before the show. We chose to eat at Claim Jumper. We had eaten at Claim Jumper in Town Square many times. This was the first time we were trying it at the Golden Nugget. Despite the hotel and the restaurant seeming to be very crowded, we were able to get seated immediately. Our server, John, came to the table and Took our drink orders almost immediately. He returned with the drinks and an oversized croissant as a starter. The bread was really fresh and incredibly buttery. Yummy. I ordered the chopped Cobb salad. The portion they brought was humongous. All of the ingredients you usually find in a Cobb salad, only more so. A very large amount of eggs, bacon, avocado, sliced turkey, tomato, bleu cheese crumbles, and more. I got a bleu cheese dressing on the side. The portion of the dressing was also large and filled with chunks of real bleu cheese. I came in hungry and this was still way more than I could finish. My wife got a hamburger and a side of fries. Each was prepared exactly the way she ordered and she said was excellent. The only negative to the meal was that the noise level in the restaurant was quite high and made conversation a bit difficult. Was this gourmet dining? No. However, this was a perfect informal, inexpensive place to dine before a show with excellent food and really good service. I will definitely be coming back.
