| - Summary review: This place is worth a visit if you are hung over, really hungry, and looking for a square meal (a huge one) in Vegas that tastes decent and doesn't cost a ton of money.
ENORMOUS portions. Definitely recommend splitting with someone or being ready to pack about half of it and take it home. Definitely make sure you go hungry. There are reasonable prices given the quantity of food. I got the Andy's Sage Fried Chicken Benedict which was $15.95 and easily enough to feed two; this was one of the most expensive items on the breakfast menu. There were plenty of menu selections for the $9-15 range.
The Andy's Sage Fried Chicken Benedict is apparently their signature dish (with Man vs. Food notoriety). I was really impressed with the way it was assembled and presented. However, every bite ended up being a gigantic mess of hollandaise sauce (which they refer to as "chipotle cream"; did not taste anything like chipotles and tasted everything like standard hollandaise), potatoes, biscuit, and chicken. Had they made the dish slightly smaller and more manageable, it would have been a much higher-quality entree.
In addition, call me a purist, but it is a travesty to call any dish without poached eggs a "Benedict". The thin tasteless layer of scrambled eggs on top seemed more like an afterthought to the dish rather than a main component. Why not call it a "fried chicken scramble" that happens to include hollandaise sauce?
Other complaints: Drinks were really cool-looking but not very alcoholic. Wi-Fi didn't work and zero cell reception in the building.
Overall, the place wasn't bad, but unremarkable. It works in Vegas, but that's about it.
