Durango – Eat Your Heart Out Food Court Restaurants – Prince Street New York Pizza, Uncle Paulie’s Sandwiches, Shang Artisan Noodle, Irv’s Burgers, Nielsen’s Frozen Custard – Las Vegas NV

The Durango Casino Hotel offers many new restaurants and an Eat Your Heart Out food court with many options. If you live in Las Vegas you saw commercials all day long on how amazing the food is. If you go on Facebook you read everyday about praise for some of the restaurants there. They say on TV that the restaurants here are the best of Las Vegas and include a few of the best from New York and California. They say they offer the best pizza, the best sandwiches, the best burgers, the best steak house….ect.

One of the restaurants I heard the most buzz about was Prince Street New York Pizza. They offer several styles and flavors of pizza that are, square, regular NY slice, and grandma style.

The caesar salad is different here and contains pepperoni.

The dressing taste bottled.

I start with a slice of Mercer Margherita (It’s the grandma style pizza)

This isn’t thick like most square pizzas. It’s a nice thinner square but is very dense…..and hardly seems fermented. This one is topped with two cheeses, tomato sauce, olive oil, garlic, and basil……I like the fresh basil but the sauce is cloyingly sweet….(It’s suppose to be topped with Prince Street Pizza Sauce…???)

My husband tries a square of pepperoni…..I think it’s called spicy spring.

He said that the pepperoni is good but the sauce is kinda sweet…….(This one is suppose to be topped with Fra Diablo sauce….?????)

I go for a second slice. The four cheese Fresh mozzarella, regular mozzarella, ricotta, pecorino Romano, and garlic. This one is thicker than the grandma and not quite as dense.

After a bite I honestly don’t want a second bite. This is not seasoned at all. I didn’t get any garlic in this bite. It taste very flat and not the best ricotta. My husband tries it and says that this isn’t seasoned at all. He also said that he didn’t get any garlic either.

The Fancy Prince is next. (mozzarella, original sauce, basil, extra virgin olive oil)

This one is thin and foldable. It seems slightly more fermented than all the other slices we’ve tried. I don’t know what original sauce is but the sauce on this slice is so sweet that it turns both of our stomachs.

From this experience I have to say to be a fan of Prince Street Pizza you need to enjoy your pizza unseasoned and made with extra sweet sauce.

We didn’t get to eat much at Prince Street Pizza so we thought we’d share a pastrami sandwich from Uncle Paulie’s.

It comes on a baguette or sourdough…..My husband picked the baguette.

ICK!

WTFork is this?? I pulled out some slices of meat so you can see what I see.

This is gross….Neither of us can eat this. It just doesn’t taste good. It doesn’t even seem like real beef. The ends of it are tasteless, black, and crunchy.

Now we are off to Shang Artisan Noodle. They are suppose to be one of the very best Chinese Noodle Restaurants in Las Vegas. They specialize in the pulled or shaved noodle.

This one is different. It’s like a small restaurant in the food court. You can either go on the wait list for service inside or go on the wait list for taking out to the food court. The original location in Chinatown is always busy with a long line outside the door. I left there a few times because I didn’t want to stand out there and wait to get in. I thought waiting 25 minutes for a seat in the food court wouldn’t be too bad.

We shared a bowl of chicken chow mein with the hand pulled noodles.

The noodles are very long and chewy. I like the lettuce mixed in with the noodles. It’s in a mild kind of soy based sauce. The lettuce sort of lightens the dish.The only downside is the chicken. Most of it is overcooked and very dry……..So we don’t finish this one either.

My husband generously suggests that we get something from Nielsen’s Frozen Custard.

He gets a small cup of chocolate custard.

It’s mildly chocolate but is smooth and very creamy.

I decide to try a vanilla concrete blended with peanut butter Reese’s Cups.

This is enough for FOUR People……….It’s creamy but you don’t get any Reese’s Cup taste you do get small hard pieces of Reese’s chocolate through it. I’ll go back to Nielsen’s and enjoy something in the future but will never order a concrete again.

On another visit I got a small cup with Reese’s topping and it was MUCH BETTER.

On another trip we made it to Irv’s Burgers.

Irv’s Burgers offers breakfast, burgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, fries, milkshakes, floats, and cookies.

My husband tries a burger. (They bake the buns here)

He said that it was juicy and tasted better than it looks.

He also got a Chilli Cheese Dog.

The hot dog is good. He said that the chilli is good. He thought it needed more cheese.

I tried Irv’s Pastrami Sandwich.

The rye bread is good and also is nicely toasted. Flavor-wise this is good and the hot honey mustard and pickles go well with all the flavors. Today the pastrami is a bit tough………It needed another hour.
