| - Totally delighted by my dinner here. seriously DELIGHTED. i had no expectations going in
what i ate:
- corn soup: creamy sweet corn soup, I'd definitely suggest this as a starter. it wasnt too creamy, there was some texture. and the flavor was pitch perfect, not too sweet, not too salty, not bland at all.
- casear salad: my friend raved about this salad and after having a bit I could see why. The flavors were bold - black pepper, garlic, parm, everything melding together perfectly. The crunchy romaine and kale begged to be consumed
- asparagus: crisp but a tad too salty for me.
- mac + cheese: OMG where have you been all my life?! This was the BEST mac + cheese I've had. Creamy, cheesy, gooey. The pasta wasn't mushy, it wasn't too cheesy. It was just so good. There were also bits of kale in this to give you the idea that this is a "healthy" dish. Saw right through it, but who cares, just eat it! The only drawback is that there is no way you can finish this in one sitting (it's a bit rich), so be kind and share!
- burger (med rare): perfection! Seriously, I asked for med rare and that's what I got. This burger made me so happy to eat. Fries were crispy.
- steak: the bite I had was delicious!
Pros:
- FOOD! Everything I ate was so delicious. I'd come here just got the food but that wasn't the only awesome thing about this restaurant
- service: we had a large party full of rowdy hungry girls and he was able to handle us with ease
- reservations: making the rez for a large party was a breeze! They were also sweet enough to give us the back/side area of the restaurant, apart from the main dining room. Wasn't expecting that, but much appreciated. it gave us plenty of room to spread out and we even had a extra table for gifts
- decor/ambiance: perfect. Relaxed and elegant without being stuffy. A great place to come on a date, or with a group of friends
- great for large parties or snack, just make a rez!
- down the street from the red rock casino!
- menu was diverse enough with a range of options and different price points (my burger was only $15!)
Cons:
- definitely a locals spot, so I don't imagine I'd come back as I'm usually closer to the strip when visiting, which makes me sad. so sad.
- random spot as it's located in the corner of a small shopping center next to a gap
Would I come again? Yes! If I was in the area
