Reviews are all over the place on this one! Guess I'll chime in here with my five star review to stir things up even more!
Please keep in mind that this is in the airport for heavens sakes! I'm not sure what airports people are traveling to and from but from my experience all over the U.S., good food is rare in airports! Good service is almost non-existent! At the Village, we received both excellent food and excellent service. It's "Seat Yourself" so be prepared to flag a server down if needed, don't wait for them to just happen to notice you. We were greeted relatively quickly by our wonderful server Brenda shortly after we sat down but we sat right on the edge so she couldn't miss us!
Our food and drinks came very fast and everything was piping hot. The chowder is super thick and creamy with clams in every bite! The garlic bread served with the chowder isn't anything to write home about but it was fresh so I'll give them that! The fish and chips are great, with four very large pieces of thick, tender and flaky cod and more fries than I could ever eat. The coleslaw is a little vinegary and "wet" but it was still crisp and cold. The fried chicken was also tender and juicy with a well seasoned crispy outside and again, more steak fries than you could ever eat!
Service by Brenda was fantastic, even though the place was packed. She served each of her tables with a smile and took a little bit of time with each table to provide personal service. That being said, the male server that was running around like Zippy the clown definitely needs to have some training on effective time management and customer service skills!!
Most importantly for adult travelers needing a beverage or two before or after their flights, they have possibly the best drinks in Las Vegas!! Perfect pours for our simple drinks of gin and tonic! For the first time all weekend, I was finally able to taste the gin!
