| - FYI/PSA/HEADS UP/NOTICE!!
This quick rundown is to justify the grading criteria:
Atmosphere: 3/5 (music too loud)
Food: 3/5 (everything was DELICIOUS!! but many things forgotten throughout meals)
wooohoo! Finally had the chance to try one of guy Fieri's restaurants!! He is one of my favorite chefs (Gordon Ramsay, Mario Battali, Giada DeLarentis in that list) and when in Vegas, Gordon's restaurant was...well certain issues prevented us from going so i was still happy getting to Guy's!
First off, the place was packed!! Saturday night and 20-30 people waiting outside!
My parents waited while I played my first game of blackjack (3 straight blackjacks ;)
We came in to find them seated on the outdoor patio and immediately: the music was way.too.damn.loud.!!! The type of music was no issue for me, personally . . . BUT the fact it was so loud + casino sounds + packed restaurant volume + Vegas strip sounds=no good at all!!!
Then our server was just...wack! My girlfriend and I sit down and immediately he comes over asking if we are ready to order . .. uhm chill!
anyways, we went through the menu and this is how everyone ordered:
Greek Salad: i did not try it but mom liked it, unfortunately they forgot the hummus ...
fireball whiskey wings: oh my god!! These were delicious!! my girlfriend ordered these and hot damn!! they were not that spicy, but had a great kick and a whole lotta flavor!! simple, delicious and amazingly Guy-oriented!
Motley Que Sandwich: my dad and I ordered and split this as well as the Vegas Fries (next item) the pulled pork was UH-MAZE-ING!! delicious, tender, juicy, a whole lotta pork on the which!! the bourbon brown sugar bbq sauce was just the right amount of sweet and tangy, and was perfect with the pork; i am not sure what the donkey sauce is but i could tell there was another sharp flavor; the cheddar was thick and blended well with the whole sandwich! unfortunately, i just realized this sandwich was missing the onion straws and slaw . . . :(
and lastly the Vegas Fries! Simply waffle fries tossed in buffalo sauce, topped with blue cheese and a side of blue cheese+wasabi dressing! these were perfect!! the fries were still crispy since they were not "soaking" in the sauce just coated; the side sauce was delicious! (also a shot of buffalo sauce) and overall very great fries!
so, as mentioned at the top, I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to give this place a 4/5...BUT...due to the crazy loud music, lacking server, and forgotten items throughout the dishes, 3/5 is the best I could do :(
BUT also, I would love to return :)
