Five Star BBQ

Category: Barbeque

12/16/2011 1 photo 1 Check-in Here

Good BBQ., but not 5 star as the name claims. I had the two meat combo plate (pulled pork and brisket) the reason for the 3 stars is simple - the pulled pork was 5 stars (it really was pretty amazing), but the brisket was so fatty and nasty (and chewy - not cooked right) I had to give it one star ... so it averages a solid 3. Sides were good, but nothing amazing. I'd like to come back and try some other stuff and see if I can up my rating, but I have to be honest on what I had during this visit and that is what I am reviewing ....

Si Señor Restaurant

One of the best places to eat Mexican food in the area. Really do enjoy this place, but beware ... it's hot ... well at least for this white boy. My favorite are the combo plates. Every time I go I try to get something different just to see, but one of my favorites is the stuffed Relleno .... but pretty much anything I have had here is amazing. I also like how you get lots of different salsa's, bean dips etc with the chips. These guys do it right!

The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa

Only 4 stars because there was lots of stuff broke in the rooms (for a triple diamond hotel and the price paid they need to get that fixed). I say "rooms" too because several people staying told me the same thing. Overall amazing experience though. Great staff, great conference area, great food and desserts. I really enjoyed the grounds too - it is hard to find a more amazing view. just flat out enjoyed my time here for the SMX Social Media conference.

P.F. Chang's China Bistro

This is where we held the SMX Social Media Epic Dinner AZ .... the staff was amazing. The food was even better. I loved doing it the way we did because I got to try a lot of dishes I would not normally order. Lots of food and dessert and everyone left happy. Again, I can't thank the staff enough ... they were amazing and paid attention to detail. Our waiter specifically was awesome. I forget his name, but he was the one who could pick up an odd shaped M&M with chopsticks .. YOU ROCKED DUDE!

Rod Works

Beware ... this is not a place your wife can just go into "for a minute" You are stuck for at least and hour (if you are lucky) Don't get me wrong its an amazing store (if you are a woman) but don't go there expecting to get out quickly (if you are a man)

This place has any and every kind of decoration possible - prices are good. I have been to similar stores (even reviewed similar stores) and these prices are a TON better compared.

If you are needing to decorate your home - check it out. And Yes, they have way much more than just rod and iron works stuff. Awesome place.

Copper Town Bistro

Category: Burgers

11/28/2011 7 photos First to Review

For this review I will let the pictures (and portion sizes) speak for themselves ... amazing quality, very fresh & the presentations of the food too was amazing ... for such a small little town (seriously in the middle of nowhere town) it was pretty impressive.

I had the "Gila Monster Burger" with cheddar inside and out - yes, the melt some cheddar INSIDE the burger ... NOM. So amazing and the fries were fresh and tasty too.

I can't wait to come back and try more. Only thing that came close to giving it a 4 star vs the 5 I gave it was the service. It was a little slow, and there really wasn't that many people to serve. They are new at it, and tried hard so I am giving them the benefit of the doubt. The food, as you can see from the pics was amazing.

Everybody loved what they got and all left feeling stuffed.

Hash House A Go Go

Where can I even begin on this one? Overwhelming does not even describe the amount of food you are brought ... They have no small meals here. if you are grossed out by insane amounts of food and over the top creations ... this place is not for you. Lucky for me I am a Man v Food type of guy and LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! WOW ... just thinking back I can't wait until I got to Vegas again JUST FOR THIS PLACE!

I had the chorizo plate, but the pancakes were huge, biscuits were huge, eggs benedict were huge (man v food chicken one was crazy) ...

BEST SERVICE in all of Vegas ... we got taken care of ... my only recommendation is calling ahead and getting reservations ... there is a lot of people that want to try this place so be prepared.

Can't wait to go back and try more - everyone with my group loved what they got and went back to hotel and passed out in a food coma!

Wicked Spoon Buffet

Category: Buffets

11/12/2011 1 Check-in Here

This place is good, but not great. I had much higher expectations for it. The night we went there was a lot of food that looked like it had been sitting under the lamp for a while. So that i the first turn off. The staff was seriously rude and left us with dry links a lot. Don't even get me started about the Gelato dude ... wow.... he needs to find a new job and NOT one in customer service. Maybe a garbage man or someone that does not have to deal with people directly.

Anyway - the Turkey served in the Korean food area was good. The desserts were good, the mashed potatoes were good, but that is about it ... I wish I could give this place a better review, but I am not a huge crab fan and had none, so I can judge it for that.

Hands down the best place I have eaten in all of Vegas so far on any of my trips. This time I had the filet, but also had the sampler plate that has a mix of everything. Their sushi is good, short ribs, potstickers, desserts ... etc EVERYTHING I have had here is AMAZING. Do yourself a favor and go there and start picking any and everything off the menu ... I will be back to this place every time I visit Vegas.

Good burger and amazing sweet potato fries. Good service, but my only complaint is they keep the music pretty loud in there so if you wanna chat with whoever you bring you really have to pay attention lol. Food and service is good though ... not an amazing burger by any means, but good.
