Opa!!

Opa Restaurant
2550 S Rainbow Blvd # W1
Las Vegas - (702) 876-3737
*sniff…. did I go in with high expectations, again?
The only thing that shined was the creamy hummus and the tzatziki. The chicken and steak kabobs seemed dry and the greek lasagna too soggy. however, the dolmades and spanokopita were great.
Conclusion: Maybe I [...]

Unique? but….

Todd’s Unique Dining
4350 E Sunset Rd Henderson, NV 89014
(702) 259-8633
Open Mon-Sat 4:30pm-10pm
I’m not sure if it was because I had high expectations going in that I was let down or that Todd’s Unique Dining just wasn’t that unique? I think with a name like that I expected Vitner/Rosemary level of bomb-diggity-ness. It was [...]

It’s advertised as DIY JAPANESE BBQ, but it feels like a fusion of Korean and Japanese. There’s tasty Kalbi written as Karubi…. ahhaha. FOr a limited time, they’re having $20 AYCE (All you can eat) for all the meat and goodies you can [...]

Seredipity 3 Las Vegas

Don’t go here for the food. Go here for their Frrrrrozen Hot Chocolate and other desserts. Food is average level comfort food with a big price. I would have to agree that the atomsphere is great for just hanging out and people watching on the strip with a couple big fat sundaes and a Fro-Ho. [...]
