| - I'm sure that this newest "West Coast" iteration of a Southern classic joint might not hold a candle to its predecessors, but... shit! It's a freaking Cracker Barrel! And it's here in Vegas!!! So maybe a liiiiittle bit of that hype transfers over to the experience for some folks, but I can definitely see how many might feel shorted on the service or the food. I, on the other hand, had a beautiful time and am really looking forward to returning once the excitement boils over (is that ever gonna happen?)...
We were expecting a lengthy wait on post-holiday Black Friday, but we took advantage of the time to check out the Country Store for a bit. Once we were seated, bro and I ultimately decided our orders from top to bottom, put in our meals and drinks, and then....... the wait of eternity. Let's face it: this is the genesis of that triangular board peg game, and if you don't get into that (or have a fully charged smartphone), then, yes, indeed, this is going to be a PAINFULLY long wait. Not entirely unexpected, however; were you expecting a five-minute turnaround after having waited on rocking chairs outside for 2 hours???
Anyway, bro ordered the dinner sampler platter and I opted for Grandpa's Country Fried Breakfast and sweet tea. Unfortunately the one thing I missed in all the excitement were the items "on request." So... no bread, no apple butter :( I'm sure glad my bro asked for water!
Everyone helping us was kind and efficient and very cool. Although the food did take a lengthy period of time, I can't say we weren't taken care of! Plus the food itself came out nice and fresh: meatloaf was actually tasty (sorry I'm not a huge fan of American meatloaf), chicken n' dumplings were PERFECTION, country ham was delicious, my country fried steak was awesome, as were my biscuits, gravy (a tiiiiny bit salty but still yum), and all our other sumptuous sides. Bro opted for a baked sweet potato that *may* have been the least desirable piece of our full meal, but even then it was decent. Personally one of my favorites was the fried apples!
Anyway, we were only in Vegas for the day so we HAD to make our one and only meal in town epic. So happy Cracker Barrel was able to fulfill that destiny! Thank you, sweet hostess standing outside in the cold, super chill servers, and tchotchkies-stuffed Country Store for making our Thanksgiving weekend superb!
