my friends were craving meat, prime rib to be specific, and what better place to go than lawry's?
what i ate:
- spinning salad: fun to watch, and even better to eat. super classic salad, but a nice start.
- california cut: thinner cut of meat, but perfect for me. gives me enough room to eat all the yummy sides
- creamed corn side: sweet and creamy
- mushroom side: very earthy and well cooked. i liked that it was a variety of mushrooms
- banana coconut pie: seriously one of the best i've had in a really long time. the crust was nice and coconuty, like a coconut cookie. perfect dessert. BUT this slice was huge! perfect to share with two other people. or just the right size for you when you need some sweets
pros:
- service: perfection, as always
- food was awesome! everyone loves it when the cart comes around, cause it's eatin time!
- able to make a rez right before we walked in
- didn't rush us. we had a very late dinner, and were probably the last patrons there, but no one rushed our meal and let use enjoy every bite
- huge dining room! plenty of seats for small or large parties
cons:
- it's a bit stuffy. when i go to the beverly hills location, it's the type of place older rich people go. but, regardless, it's nice to treat yourself, especially after winning some money at the roulette table!
- no meatballs! maybe we came too late, maybe they don't do it at this location, but i really missed the mini meatballs the beverly hills location usually has in their bar as an appetizer for people who are waiting. oh well
would i come again? um... i duno, maybe if i were in town and in the mood for prime rib, minus the buffet.
corkage fee was $25 (i think???)
