| - Came here for the first time (officially) as a diner recently, right after the Breast Cancer Walk, that was held in front of Red Rock Casino.
Had been to their sister restaurant previously with another friend once, to pick up food for her doggy. This is a unique restaurant as it is one of the few that allows dogs (outside patio only) with a small menu for dog's. Of course there are some rules to follow but hey, easy enough if you have them trained well.
The restaurant opened at 0900AM on Sunday which was 2 hours earlier than it usually does on weekdays, and 1 hour earlier than it does on Saturday.
There was a few parties from the same walk here already when we had arrived. We were a party of 12 so i thought we'd have some trouble in getting some seating arranged. They had asked us if we had a reservation, when i answered "no", the hostess had a mild disappointment/sad emotion but stated it would take 10 - 15 minutes for our table to be ready. That in itself was really surprising and we were happy. Indeed, we were seated in 10 - 15 minutes. Surprisingly, we weren't the largest party in the restaurant.
We were greeted by our server (Gerardo) fairly quickly and had drinks served. One of our friend's had a yelp check in offer for free fries. 4 of us had checked in and did not see this offer. Not sure why? I have heard about some offers being random so i just left it at that. One of my friends had asked the waiter about this and he said he would ask his manager about it. A few minutes later, we had told us manager had allowed 2 more orders for us.
Cajun Fries - Crispy french fries with cajun seasoning and a side of chipotle ranch dipping sauce
YUMMY ! When we had originally got that 1st plate, the fries were disappearing fast. I decided to move the fries back to the person who ordered it before it disappeared in front of us. These fries are DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS ! (i dont say this much). When 2 more orders came, we went at it. Very well seasoned. Deliciously crispy and well made. That dipping sauce wasn't even needed ! Best cajun fries i've ever had !
Hair of the Dog Bloody Mary - Vodka, tomato juice, black pepper, fresh lime + horseradish, garnished with olives, pickled green beans + celery
This was the brunch cocktail i had picked. I haven't had a bloody mary in ages and thought it was worth the try at the cost of $5. Pretty good pricing. Granted it was smaller than what i've seen what other restaurants offer but it was still fairly decent sized. I tasted the vodka and tomato juice, and some lime (since i squeezed that wedge of lime into my drink). Black pepper, horseradish was indistinguishable. Celery was a bit weird XD Surprisingly the pickled green bean was tasty. I don't really like olives but i ate that anyway XD (asian habits of not wasting food). As for the drink itself, eh. Was ok. I think there are better versions.
Was pretty indecisive with what i wanted to order. Not much of a breakfast/brunch fan typically so didn't really know what to order. Especially from the Brunch menu
Country Chicken + Biscuit - crispy fried chicken, housemade chicken sausage, two sunny side up eggs, housemade buttermilk biscuit, cajun gravy, spiced maple syrup
Aside from this one, i had my eyes on the housemade carnitas + tater tot hash. Some other friends ordered it and it looked really good. The country chicken and biscuit was ok. The biscuit was pretty yummy. The housemade chicken sausage was not that good. Less "bite" than i had expected from a sausage. The fried chicken was mildly dry and definitely wasnt crispy anymore. The gravy was good to mop up with the biscuit. Couldn't really tell the maple syrup was spiced or any different from a normal syrup. XD
My friend had ordered the pork fried rice. It includes smoked bacon, pork sausage, veggies + cabbage, topped with an egg omelette. The fried rice was very typical from an american establishment. Includes shredded carrots, and peas... Lol the rice was a bit undercooked and hard. The omelette is the weirdest part of all. Ok omelette on top of fried rice. Doesn't sound that weird right? But this omelette... was like... a dry quiche, without all the unique characteristics of a quiche and ingredients.. It seemed like it was thrown in a round pan and thrown into an oven for a long period of time... or even worse, microwaved. WORST "OMELETTE" EVER !
Price wise for the brunch items, was very good. Most items were under $10, which was quite cheaper than most things on their main menu.
Best item we had was the fries definitely. Service was great as well. My water was always filled quickly. Very attentive server (Gerardo). Weird that he asked to make a review with him in it but hey, he did do a good job. So it was deserving. If anything, this helped me notice his name and be able to recall it in this review. HAHA works out i guess.
Overall, decent place. Good service. Hopefully other food is better XD I'd like those fries again though. om nom nom
