"By the Casino"
Deb
September 2008 — "We were looking forward to a night out at the casino and dinner. The casino was not very busy. The restaurant is attached to the casino building although run by another company. I didn't recognize the name of the restaurant so I don't think it is a franchise. Alcohol is not served in the casino so we thought a drink with dinner would be nice. And we wanted to get away from the noise for a little while. The decor was very nice and I expected this to be a very nice restaurant. It wasn't bad but not great either. The menu was very limited and was a little pricey for what they offered. It wasn't busy even though it was Saturday night but the service was good. The seating offered lots of privacy with high backed and oversized booths. Most of the patrons were seated at the bar. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. We both order a steak sandwich. The dinner came up quickly and we both found the steak done to order. We both agreed that the dinner was okay but we probably would want to eat somewhere else if we were coming back to the casino again. Overall, it was okay but I don't think we will go back. "

"Great Service and Food!"
Mike
November 2007 — "While on a night out at the casino, my wife and I decided to have dinner at the onsite restaurant. Our server was over-the-top friendly and made the entire dining experience really enjoyable - high fives and all! We were brought a little loaf of cheese bread to start which was amazing. I ordered the short ribs with fries and coleslaw and it was very delicious. I would definitely recommend that dish. My wife ordered the New York steak sandwich with salad. The steak was cooked perfectly and she raved about the salad. Her salad was tightly wrapped inside a cucumber slice. When the cucumber was removed, the salad spilled out and covered the entire plate. I tried some of her salad because I had to taste the interesting blueberry dressing - it was quite tasty. The portions were perfect although my wife did have some salad left. We were never left thirsty as our server was quick to keep the drinks filled - my wife said their caesars were very tasty. The quality of food and service at this restaurant highly exceeded our expectations. We will definitely go back!"
