| - I'm always hesitant to give a 2 star review, unfortunately, 2 might be on the generous side. Friday evening, my family and I were thoroughly enjoying the Promenade when the delicious smell is smoked ribs wafted through the air. The smell was so thick and tantalizing, we had to stop in.
We were seated immediately near a window, my preference, upon entry. Our waitress came over in a timely manner, albeit very rushed. She skipped the pleasantries altogether and got right to business taking our orders. Since Vegas is not known for ribs, we decided to share two menu items, what a great decision that turned out to be. We ordered the slab rib dinner and the multi meat nachos(pulled chicken, pulled pork, cubed brisket). Once our plates arrived we were darn near salivating they looked beautiful, excellent presentation -- that's when all Hell broke loose.
The slab was 4 bones, we inquired with the waitress thinking a simple mistake had been made. Apparently, a slab is by the pound for their establishment - I've lived long enough to know that if you offer me a slab of ribs at $25, I expect more than four bones or you have some explaining to do. The waitress brought another bone out to meet our satisfaction, turns out that would be to my chagrin later.
As we bit into the first bite, our mouths suffered complete and utter devastation! This, per the pound, 4-5 bone slab was all fat, like gristly, greasy, seasoned fat! We needed a search light to find any meat. Alright, major disappointment, but we still have the nachos, we gleefully take a chip, again devastating results, the sauce they use(the ribs arrive sans any sauce) is a mix of ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, all unmarried to each other - leaving the weirdest after taste in your mouth. We shrug it off, who really buys ribs in Vegas heat anyway, we are Vegas vets who made a rookie mistake, chalk it up to a learned lesson and move on.
Only if it had ended there, 2 hours later, we found ourselves making a Usain Bolt like sprint to any available restroom. We were all trapped, due to obvious reasons for at least 15 mins, we finally make it back to our hotel room, where we are forced to stay for the remainder of the evening and part of the next morning. So, do what you feel best, but this is what happened to me. I wish them well and I hope they work the kinks out. This place has great potential.
