"We ate here for the first time today, and what a great experience!!!! \n\nThe owner (Bernard) is a very laid back guy, and he chatted with us for over 15 minutes. The place is very kid friendly, and my 15-month old loved all of our food. The wine list is very small, but we had a great bottle of wine for less than $40--try finding that at a similar resto on the strip! \n\nThe vibe here is very laid back, and the food was excellent:\n\n* The crab cakes were very good, and the portion size was huge.\n\n* The spinach salad was very good (I love it when they cut the stems off the spinach leaves). The goat cheese and dressing on the salad complemented each other very well.\n\n* The country pate was good, although a minor demerit for not serving toasted bread with pate. (Their regular bread is great, however).\n\n* The filet and the pork were very tender and cooked perfectly--didn't even need our steak knives.\n\nWe can't wait to go back once the weather cools off to take advantage of their awesome patio!"^^ .
