This is a small little restaurant with such delicious and tasty food! The Chicago style hotdog was excellent, fresh and tasty! The BBQ dip sandwich was nice with the Baby Rays BBQ sauce! The waitress was also so very helpful and entertaining too! We'll definitely go back to eat there whenever we're back in Laughlin.
#1 Very hard to find, just keep looking when you get to the general area. #2 Had a party of 4, service was excellent. Italian beef was excellent with good portions. Nothing fancy, just good food. Yes I would return.
When I say they gave me some memories from Chicago. The combination sandwich was soooo good. Great customer service on the phone and the delivery driver was kind too. Definitely will be back maybe once a weekend for us. Wish I would've took a picture but we ate it so fast to do so.
Great food this is as close to Chicago as you will get ! Go try it. Closed Monday and Tuesday
We have tried this a few times now. The staff is Amazing. It's a small family owed business and they are friendly, attentive and all around good people. We've tried the Chicago dog, Philly Cheesesteak and Pastrami Melt. So far we have not been disappointed and we feel the food is amazing well worth the drive
It's a little out of the way (like only 5 miles; located upstairs/behind Bayshore Inn), but so worth the drive! We had the AZ Philly Cheese Steak poboy w/level 1 jalapeños cooked in the meat & homemade fries, and Super Nachos w/HOMEMADE chips... both were amazing as was the sweet server!
Wow. Best kept tiny secret in Laughlin. Killer service and the portions were super fair. Oh and it's wonderfully air conditioned. Do yourself a favor and drive the 6 minutes further into Laughlin. Well worth it.
When people say they found a hidden gem ... this is definitely one. It's literally hidden! I've heard of this place on Facebook but never knew where it was and had never seen it. Our family decided to stop in for lunch, and we're glad we did. As I walked in, the first thing I noticed was the cool AC and cleanliness. Huge plus for me! The dining area is small with some booths against the wall and a couple of bigger tables on the other side. The have a bar with a pool table The ladies working were super sweet. The food was great, we ordered the rueben, and 2 different cheesesteaks. They dont have a kids' menu but still have options for everyone. My little one and picky teen ordered burgers. Everything was fresh and delicious.
This is a small restaurant within a small hotel/casino off the beaten track of the main casino row in Laughlin. Their menu has something for everyone. Our once a month lunch bunch went here and we all enjoyed the food and the owner was our server and she was friendly and funny! We'll definitely be back & I'll bring my husband for a day date as well!
Last summer, I drove about 5 miles from my hotel specifically to get my fix at Bruce's Taste of Chicago. I made sure it was at least 20 minutes before closing to order a Chicago dog and fries to go. I had lived in Illinois as a child and wanted a bit of nostalgia, as I saw posted somewhere long before my Laughlin trip that this eatery existed. I was really happy to know that there was this hidden gem nearby. When I got there, I was turned away by Brandie, she said that they were very busy. She wrote on a menu that she would give me a discount on my next visit. I'm not local, but I understood and left hungry, without food and disappointed. Fast forward to recent, I went on a Sunday around 4 pm and placed my order and waited under 10 minutes. I can see why others would say that Brandie is rude. I wouldn't say she's rude. I think she's just very short. She wants to be efficient. As I left, I had remembered the discount but lord knows where that paper menu is...LOL As for the food: it was good. Although I was expecting the bright neon green relish that is traditionally on a Chicago dog. The fries were good, I might pass on the slaw next time, because the nachos look great. I'll be back to try them and a Italian Beef the next time I am in town! Ambiance: Felt like I was back in Chicago!
