Description of restaurant:

Casual atmosphere.  Open 24 hours.  Not a bad place to retreat when you need a break from the poker room.

What I ordered:

Hamburger, fries, and a brownie sundae.  The hamburger gave me indigestion until the next morning.  Fries are mediocre at best.  The reason I went there was for the brownie sundae (as if that was a mystery).  This time it was only average, so much so that I didn't even bother to go back & get a second one before leaving town.  Imagine that.

Environment/Staff:

Staff is always nice, but never very attentive.  Restaurant is very clean, but often has a lot of flies in it.  Comfortable atmosphere.

Price:

Average pricing.  My whole meal was about $15.

Additional Information and Links:

Get a comp from the poker room before you go ... if you have the points on your card (they just switched to the MGM card, so I'm not sure if their comp policy is as liberal as it used to be--I'll have to get back to you on that after January).
