The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill is a casual fast growing chain of Greek Mediterranean restaurants in about 1/2 the country with around nine locations in Nevada. The NEW North Las Vegas Nevada location on Losee Road has a nice bright open dining room and also has patio dining for when the weather is nice.

They offer many Greek appetizers, salads, soup, wraps, entrees, desserts, children’s meals and soft beverages.

To start out we tried a 4 dip appetizer and my husband’s entree came with a small Greek salad.

They gave us a generous amount of warm flatbreads. They also gave us generous servings of tzatziki (yogurt cucumber dip), tirokafteri (feta roasted pepper dip), melitzanosalata (roasted eggplant dip), and hummus (chickpea tahini dip). All the dips are flavorful and very good! I think the hummus is unusually good. It’s rare that you go anywhere and get hummus that is this good.

I try the Greek rice bowl with Atlantic Salmon.

WOW! To my surprise the salmon is VERY GOOD! It’s fresh like from a better restaurant and was prepared medium-medium/rare like from a better restaurant with nice grill marks. The salad is also quite large, very fresh, and tasty. It’s over rice pilaf and the tzatziki sauce is very good.

My husband tried a grilled steak souvlaki entree platter with (slight up-charge) Greek lemon potatoes.

Everything is well flavored (especially the potatoes YUM!!) He likes it. For me the beef today is slightly chewy. (but I confess that I am not a beef person and I seldom eat beef)

The dips are very good and today the salmon was very above average. Everything was flavored nicely and all the food seemed very fresh. To me that’s Worth a Fork!

It was so good that we went back with the dogs on the dog friendly patio.

I had the Greek Rice bowl again with salmon again.

It looks the same but doesn’t taste the same…….Doesn’t taste like fresh salmon….Taste like from frozen supermarket salmon and includes the bloodline this time. It’s also well done this time.

My dogs don’t mind. The Giant Aussie enjoyed chickpeas and salmon

The Beagle-Mix enjoyed cucumber slices and salmon

They also got to try some of my husband’s Greek Rice Bowl with gyro.

Depending on your take this might have been better than the salmon? It was brought out cold and kinda dry though….But my dogs didn’t mind.

Next time I’ll try the chicken.

On another visit my husband had the Greek rice bowl again with gyro. The gyro is a bit better this time.

And I got the Greek rice bowl with chicken this time.

Some pieces are moist and some are slightly dry…..It doesn’t seem marinated like what I’m used to from Greek Restaurants but isn’t bad.

My dogs don’t mind helping me with this.

Fine Company was one of the most anticipated restaurant openings recently by Eater Las Vegas. Fine Company is by the former executive chef of the Bellagio. This restaurant offers new American cuisine and is located in downtown Summerlin Las Vegas Nevada. This restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner service.

We didn’t notice this written anywhere in the restaurant and nobody informed us that this is a cashless restaurant. Even though our paper money is legal for all debts…It is not accepted at Fine Company. They should inform you on this before you order instead of informing you when you are ready to pay.

Anyways –

They offer traditional seating, community seating, and patio dining.

My husband tried the porchetta sandwich (potato focaccia, pumpkin seed pesto, giardiniera, pickled red onions, arugula pickles and fries) He asked for salt and pepper and they brought over the cutest restaurant salt and pepper shakers.

He said that this sandwich was VERY, very, VERY, GOOD! and the meat was MOIST and FLAVORFUL! It was a really great sandwich but the fries were cold…..

I also got a sandwich and asked if I could pay extra to substitute a side salad for the fries. I was told that they don’t do that here……..So I had the Fileto Fish sandwich with fries. (menu reads – shatter battered halibut, giardiniera remoulade, brioche bun with pickles and fries)

I do have to say that the fish seems very fresh. It’s mild and meaty…..It’s good but the breading isn’t shattering crisp…..but still good. I tried 1/2 the sandwich as is and most of the other half without the bread…….They do taste different. With the bread it’s almost impossible to taste the giardiniera remoulade……Not sure if because too thinly applied or if it needs more flavor to it…..But without the bread it does have a better flavor. The sandwich is good but I also got cold dry fries. I didn’t ask for it but for some reason they gave me their spicy ketchup for the fries…I do have to say that the spicy ketchup is spicy and good…..It’s very flavorful and is spicy. The pickles are also very good.

The Banana bread is listed as a brunch plate but we tried it for dessert.

The banana bread is very good and comes with high quality very good butter…….

That was my first taste of Fine Company Restaurant in Summerlin.

Salted Lime is the Mexican Restaurant at Aliante Casino/Hotel in North Las Vegas Nevada. I was planning to dine at Bistro 57 also in Aliante but came across this sign.

No mention of the closure was mentioned on the website. Only specials were mentioned and they appear to be taking reservations…….

ANYWAYS……We decided to try The Salted Lime.

I noticed three dining rooms. The hostess said that we had to be seated in the bar.

The middle of the bar has hundreds of tequila bottles hanging from the ceiling.

We try a Cadillac Margarita and a Da House Margarita…….They come in two sizes small and 18 oz that cost $4. more. Both were made with an extra sour mix.

Our server asked us if we wanted the chips and salsa……I said yes because I wanted to try them.

The salsa was made with roasted vegetables and maybe smoked chilies.

The fresh catch was swai today so I went with a chicken taco salad.

They brought it out and forgot to top my salad with chicken so I had to flag someone down to get it. The salad was tasty with the black beans instead of refried beans. I thought it was odd that all three dressings they offer are ranch. (ranch, chipotle ranch, jalapeño ranch) It turned out to be a good thing to have the chicken on the side. It’s moist but a little over seasoned for me and is too salty.

My husband did better with the carnitas burrito combo and the Chile relleno.

Kinda average.

Then I see a robot flying by running food.

It zooms back.

That was my trip to Salted Lime at Aliante Casino Hotel.
