| - A yummy late night dinner! Arrived here last night at approximately 9:20pm and was told the wait was 35 minutes for a table. We gave the waitress our cell phone number and she said she would text us once our table was ready... 50 minutes later, we were seated at our table. The hostess was rude - hardly looked me in the eye, never smiled, and was completely miserable. - I'm sure Gordon Ramsey would have thrown a few F-bombs.
My four stars is given to the Traditional Shepard's Pie. Ohhh baby, it's GOOD. It's a smaller portion, but don't let that fool you. This rich, juicy, and savory dish will leave you more than satisfied. You can tell that the beef in this dish had been marinating in the stock all day. Needless to say, I ate the entire thing.
You get a little bread basket before your meal that consists of pretzels and a caraway seed roll. Salted butter and melted cheese are served next to the breads for dipping.
My guest had the fish and chips, which were excellent too. The "chips" were my favorite. They are large, one inch potato sticks seasoned with parmesan cheese and salt - fried perfectly. If you get another dish without chips, I recommend getting a side of these to try, you can't find them cooked like this anywhere else.
The dinner was pricey. Our bill (two entrees and one soda), was $50.00. This isn't your 'visit-every-week' pub, but it's definitely worth going to - whether a local or a tourist. I would say, it might be one of the more unique restaurants on the strip, food wise.
BUT, like I stated before, service needs to be improved. The hostess made me feel as though she didn't want my business, and I didn't feel very welcomed. Once I sat down, our waiter was nice, but the hostess ruined the initial experience.
