Sunflower Vietnamese Restaurant is located in North Las Vegas Nevada. They offer a variety of Pho Soups, Vermicelli Plates, Vegetarian foods, a few sandwiches, and they also are Tea House.

Here’s the tea menu. There is a lot to pick from.

It’s small but cozy inside.

We started off by trying the chicken potstickers.

The potstickers here are crispy all over and seem like deep fried. The jalapeño is a nice touch but soy-like sauce seems extra salty to me……..

I tried the Vermicelli with spicy chicken sautéed.

They gave me an extra generous serving. I got a big bowl of lettuce, vermicelli (rice noodles), fine shredded pickled radish, carrots, cilantro, scallions, and this tasty, not too spicy, tender as from a sous vide, sliced chicken. It’s tender like butter…….On the side are peanuts and nuoc cham. It’s different but is good…..Even the vermicelli is different to me….maybe a little softer and thicker?

My husband tried the Beef Combination Pho (rare steak, brisket, beef balls in beef broth).

This one is also a generous serving size. I only tried one spoonful of the broth…it’s different….beefy but not rich beefy…..more like summer broth beefy like the way a good steak sandwich taste……..I did try a small bite of the steak…..it didn’t have a lot of flavor to it. I thought that the chicken from the vermicelli bowl was much better. My husband did say that the brisket had a better flavor but was slightly chewy.

Those were my thoughts on Sunflower Vietnamese Restaurant.

Worth a Try!

Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill has a location in the Red Rock Casino/Hotel in the Summerlin part of Las Vegas Nevada. They offer your usual Japanese Cuisine and beverages that include wine, beer, saki, and cocktails. They offer seating at the sushi counter, dining area of tables, booths and partial booths. They also have an indoor-outdoor bar, and an outside dining area.

The lunch specials come with miso soup and wakame.

Taste similar to what other places serve……..

We shared the Chirashi (sashimi rice bowl). ($34. at the time of my visit)

This has a good amount of fish in here to share. Some of what’s in here are: white fish, salmon, tuna, shrimp, octopus, egg, sushi rice. tiny noodles, Japanese pickle, ginger, fish roe………Some things are better than other things……..What I liked best was the salmon, tuna and the rice. The white fish had a strange hard exterior??????? I don’t know what it was. My husband said that the octopus was chewy and the shrimp was very average.

This 8 oz Prime ground-in-house Wagyu Smash Burger with fries is also a nice large platter to share……But today was kinda dry and not very beefy tasting….On the bright side the fries were very good. ($26. at the time of my visit)

I was expecting the food here to be a home run. I only heard very positive things about this place.

I felt that the food tasted more like neighborhood quality type sushi that is much lower in price. To me the burger didn’t taste up to it’s price point either.

That was my experience with the lunch menu from –

DW Bistro might be considered to be a New American Bistro that offers some foods laced with Jamaican flavors and some foods with subdued flavors of New Mexican cuisine and other surprises. They are open for weekend brunch, and also offer a weekday menu. On both menus you can find things like salmon bowls, salads, jerk chicken, vegetable or chicken curry, and New Mexican red Chile pork.

Most of the seating is indoors but they also offer some outdoor seating.

I tried the jerk chicken and waffles.

For me this is a very large serving that I got two meals out of. Fresh grated orange rind was a nice added touch to the chicken. I got a breaded breast and thigh that are moist and lightly seasoned with jerk seasoning. The only down side is that the crust falls off. The waffles are good and the syrup is good.

I did take home a chicken curry meal for the next day.

It’s made with lots of fresh vegetables like two squashes, broccoli, carrots, red onions, and most chicken. I had my choice of rice or couscous and went with couscous that was good. I think most people would like this.

My husband tried the New Mexico red Chile pork with locally made tortillas.

The eggs came out unseasoned and the meal came out cold. My husband got really grumpy. He said the pork was cold all stuck together and wasn’t succulent like it should be. Eventually we were checked on and they tried to make things right with us. Then this plate was removed from the bill and they surprised us with a key lime pie that was tasty.

They also accidentally charged me $5.00 for an iced tea I didn’t get but I didn’t want to complain about it since they gave us the red Chile pork and the dessert for free.

That was my visit to DW Bistro.

Good but not perfect.

Gorditas El Fogon is a small very casual restaurant that offers gorditas and a lot more. Incase you don’t know……Gorditas are yummy masa dough fat pillows that are grilled and are stuffed with cheese and other fillings.

Besides over a dozen different gorditos this restaurant offers a bunch of other things. They offer breakfast, tacos, burritos, tortas (sandwiches), a kid’s menu, and what they call plates. Soft beverages are served here.

We had to order a Gordita so we went with a jalapeño and cheese Gordita.

It came with a lemon wedge, pickled red onions, a little lettuce cucumber and two salsas and was only $3.25 (subject to change). The Gordita is very tasty, cheesy, and not too spicy. It’s just tasty I think anyone would like it.

The green sauce seems like tomatillo based and is medium spicy. The slightly smokey red sauce is much spicier.

We tried a Gordita beef asada taco and a Gordita chicken taco. Inside is seasoned meat and cheese.

Both are nicely seasoned. We both prefer the chicken over the beef here. The chicken is finely shredded and is moist and tender. The beef is fine chopped but is a bit chewy. Here the rice is tasty and kinda fluffy. The beans are loose just like from most Mexican restaurants. $9.49 subject to change.

We also try the Culichi fish filet (fried tilapia $11.99 subject to change).

We got a meaty filet of mild tasting white fish topped with a green sauce that might be tomatillo and lots of mild melted white cheese. To the side are generous amounts of Mexican style rice and refried beans. This also came with white corn tortillas.

They also only charged $1. for a bottled water (subject to change).

It sure doesn’t cost much to eat here and the food is tasty!

Worth a Try!

Narong’s Thai Kitchen is a very small casual Thai Restaurant located near to North Las Vegas Nevada.

See it’s very small…..Only 5 or 6 tables.

We started out by trying the potstickers (they are chicken here).

The potstickers have a nice crispy exterior and are garnished with scallions, a two sauces. They are tasty. If you eat chicken you will like them.

I tried the green curry with chicken with number 6 level heat out of ten.

The sauce is aromatic and delicious but slightly thinner than from other places. The number 6 heat is plenty hot here. For me it’s perfect. The chicken is masterfully tender and is infused with the basil. In here are plenty of bamboo shoots, green pepper and a few amazing pieces of DELICIOUS SWEET EGGPLANT……I wish this had more eggplant because it really is usually great. Next time I’m getting the spicy eggplant dish.

My husband got the Spicy Basil with chicken and beef.

I tried a small bite of the chicken. OMG it’s amazing! So tender ….like butter and sooooo delicious with a great basil flavor……My husband ordered number 8 heat out of ten. It’s a bit too spicy but still delicious. He offers some beef to me but warns me that it is tough…I decline. In a few minutes I hear someone from the next table complaining about the tough beef. I heard her say that this beef is so tough that you can’t cut it with a knife….

Anyways- For a Thai Restaurant the portions are large and pricing is low. The chicken in the dishes we’ve tried was delicious and masterfully tender but the beef was tough.
