"4"^^ . "8"^^ . "Almost skipped Osi's after reading a Yelp review mentioning that they close at 7:30 p.m. That's an ungodly hour for this night owl to eat dinner. Happily I noticed on the Yelp page that their hours were until 9, and after calling to verify, we were on our way.\n\nThis small storefront is simply decorated, but comfortable and clean. A friendly welcome and excellent service followed. There is no alcohol served, and you can bring wine, but it must be Kosher wine. Most liquor stores these days have a good selection of Kosher wines, but the bright and casual atmosphere at Osi's isn't that kind of place. \n\nA number of the menu entrees are available as platters or sandwiches. I ordered the Merguez sausage entree. All entrees come with a small Israeli salad and a choice of potatoes or rice. I didn't want either of those, so the waiter suggested couscous. Hubby had that, too, along with Schnitzel. We didn't expect the couscous to arrive in large bowls covered with a carrot and vegetable stew on top, each a portion larger than what you'd get from preparing a box of Near East for a family of four!\n\nI enjoyed the Merguez, since it was a new taste for me - spicy but not fiery, and covered with some fried onions. I don't know if I'd order it again, since some of the other non-familiar items on the menu were also appealing. My husband's schnitzel was good, too. \n\nThere seems to be a bit of a price disconnect between the entrees and the sandwiches. Our platters were $14.98 for a substantial amount of food. The same items in a baguette sandwich would be only $2 less, and come with no sides. I really would have preferred the sandwich, because (wo)man can live by bread alone, even with nothing inside, but I couldn't justify it. And I'll get to relive the couscous experience tomorrow, from the styrofoam \"gift box\" I took home.\n\nOh, and for you who live by Yelp and don't have an unlimited data plan, they have wifi!\n\nOsi's is a welcome addition to the growing Kosher restaurant presence in Vegas, and one that will appeal to the non-Kosher among us."^^ .
