Paulie’s South Street Steaks is a casual Philadelphia inspired Cheesesteak and Hoagie restaurant with two locations in Las Vegas Nevada. The West Craig Road location is small and very casual. You order and pay at the counter and seat yourself. Someone runs the food to you when it’s ready.

Today I tried a Spicy Jalapeño Avocado Steak Sandwich.

The steak meat (according to what they have written on the wall is) is a blend of Kobe beef and prime sirloin that is different from the usual shaved ribeye of most Philadelphia Cheese Steaks. The sandwich was also embellished with pickled jalapeños, creamy avocado, red bell pepper, caramelized onions, and chipotle mayonnaise. (sharp American cheese left off at my request) I think the filling of this steak sandwich is very good. The roll is locally made and is very soft…….

My husband tried the steak sandwich called the Italian.

This steak sandwich is made of steak meat, peppers, onions, garlic marinara, provolone cheese, and sharp American cheese on a locally made soft bun.

We also shared some scoop fries that were tasty.

Paulie’s didn’t take me back to the steak sandwiches of Philadelphia…….. mostly because the bread is very different (soft and squishy…..) and cherry peppers are not in sight but the meat filling was very good. Jay from Paulie’s did contact me and said bread differs everywhere in Philadelphia. He also said that the server is suppose to offer hot/sweet peppers.

Worth a Try!

#1 Hawaiian Barbecue is a casual order at the counter Hawaiian Barbecue restaurant with three locations in Las Vegas Nevada. They specialize in serving the Hawaiian Plate Lunch. That means you get a packed Styrofoam container packed with lots of protein, lots of creamy macaroni salad, and lots of rice and maybe some cabbage. Besides the Hawaiian plate lunch some of the other offerings are sandwiches (sounds crazy but on today’s menu sandwiches start at $3.25…subject to change) musubi (like giant sushi roll), and saimin (Hawaiian noodle soup).

The North Las Vegas Location is small but does have a dining room with several tables.

You order and pay at the counter and when your order is ready they serve it to you.

My first meal I tried here was the maui maui lunch plate.

It’s three pieces of breaded fried fish with a large scoop of macaroni salad, two scoops of rice and some raw cabbage. Give or take it was around $12. and I got more than one meal out of it. It’s nothing fancy but this taste much better than fast food.

My husband tried a two meat lunch plate. BBQ Beef and pork.

I think that this is a massive amount of food but I heard that it was pretty good!

On another visit I tried chicken katsu with curry sauce.

I like the taste of the curry sauce. The chicken is also nicely prepared. The breading didn’t get soggy and the chicken is moist. This is also more than one meal for me. (I got three meals out of this one!)

My husband go a loco moco.

2 burger patties, gravy, 2 eggs, rice and macaroni salad.

Nothing fancy but better than fast food. Maybe cheaper than fast food too!

Large portions and low prices!

Dragon Tigar Noodle Company is a casual ramen, chicken wing, and more restaurant by James Beard Award Wining chef Jet Tila. Here you go down the line and pick your broth, your noodle, your vegetables, and other toppings “Chipotle Style.”

Today I picked out……

Szechwan broth (v), spicy house made noodles, poached chicken, mushrooms, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, carrots, corn, ramen egg, nori, garlic oil, scallions, cilantro, lime and Thai Basil. (regular sized)

My husband picked…..

Pork broth, spicy house made noodles, pork belly, mushrooms, ramen egg, garlic oil, lime, Chile sauce. (Sumo sized)

This is very good! Lots of flavor to the Szechwan broth! It’s almost too spicy for me. The chicken even stays moist the whole time too!

We also tried an order of dragon wings. We did get spicy but I asked them to go very light with the ghost pepper.

These are the best wings that I’ve tried in a long time! Very crisp but juicy, moist and flavorful on the inside. Very tasty too…they are delicious plain. The sauce on the side is very tasty too and not too spicy hot……They made it taste similar to Calabrian pepper paste……..It’s very good too!

That was my first taste at Dragon Tiger Noodle Company -YUM! Worth a Fork!

Asada Mexican Restaurant is a casual order and pay at the counter Mexican Restaurant located in NORTH LAS VEGAS NV. They offer foods such as breakfast, soups, salads, taco platters, and entrees like a half grilled chicken, enchilada platters, fajitas, and children’s meals. It looks like mostly soft beverages here but I did notice cans of beer are offered.

They do start you off with complimentary chips and two salsas. One taste like green tomatillo and the other is smoky and spicy.

Today I went with a salad and tried the salmon signature salad.

The salmon is nicely seasoned and came with nice grill marks on it. It also is a very large portion and isn’t over cooked. The salad is adorned with crisp tortilla strips, avocado slices and cheese. It taste like a mayonnaise based white dressing is on the side.

The camarones a la diablo is another reasonably good choice.

The shrimp are cooked nicely and are in a spicy garlic sauce served with rice.

We also tried a carne asada taco.

Today the meat is a bit dry and chewy. Maybe it’s usually better?

Based on the salmon salad and shrimp dish I’d say that Asada Mexican Restaurant is Worth a Try!

Old School Pizzeria s a high quality casual pizzeria with three locations in Las Vegas Nevada. Everything is made in-house. They use local and organic as much as possible. Commercial yeast is not used here. The dough is 100% sourdough culture and a five day fermentation. This results a more developed flavor and less carbohydrates. The North Las Vegas location is small and very casual. You order and pay at the counter and seat yourself. When your order is ready someone runs it out to you. Interesting beverages are available like roasted rosemary lemonade and a couple bottles of wine are available.

ANYWAYS- They offer a $8.99 Solo Meal******UPDATE NO LONGER PRICES WENT UP>

It’s a very large slice of pizza with your choice of bread knots, house sausage stuffed chicken wing, cup of lentil soup, or a choice of three salads.

I tried the vegetariana (heirloom tomato, black Mediterranean olives, spinach, eggplant, onions, peppers, rapini, mushrooms, garlic, crushed tomatoes, basil, and aged mozzarella) with a garden salad (romaine, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, mozzarella, garlic, and mascarpone dressing)

WOW! It’s an extra large plate of food and it all happens to be delicious! There are so many vegetables on the pizza.The crust taste really great too and it has a nice crispness to it and it’s slightly charred. The salad also is much better and bigger than expected! It’s so rich and yummy…I think this salad alone is worth the $8.99.

My husband went for the Calabrese slice (artisan salami Calabrese, hot peppers, black Mediterranean olives, crushed tomatoes, basil, and aged mozzarella) with the house made sausage stuffed boneless chicken wing topped with pistachios). (*****UPDATE this plate below now costs $8.99+ $4.49 premium slice + $2.75. for wing)

These plates exceeded our expectations so we took home a pizza to try for latter.

It’s a five cheese pesto pizza with scamorza cheese, mozzarella, ricotta, parmiano,pecorino Romano, pine nuts, and basil cream…Gosh this is crazy good too!

Old School Pizzeria is Worth a Fork! and the $8.99 Solo Meal is amazing!****UPDATE only a plain slice with a garlic knot might be $8.99 every other slice and side cost extra now.

Don Michael’s Restaurant is a small casual Italian Restaurant located in a strip mall in North-West Las Vegas Nevada. It’s not a fancy place. I can tell you that from just one visit that portions are large and prices are low.

They did start us off with garlic toast that I forgot to photo.

We shared an appetizer called portobello mushrooms. I was expecting a few mushrooms stuffed with some cheese and crumbs……..but we received a large bowl of mushrooms with fresh spinach in a very rich mushroomy cheese sauce.

This is a big bowl and can certainly feed far more than two people.

This is very good with the bread. I think it would also be really great on a potato.

For dinner I tried the salmon Da Vinci that is salmon in a sherry dijon sauce with capers, artichokes, and pasta.

Everything is prepared reasonably well. The sauce is tasty and the salmon isn’t overcooked. It’s also a very large portion.

My husband went with one of the specials called chicken saliccia. It was tender chunks of chicken with sausage, bell peppers, onions, olives, rosemary, thyme, wine, and Sunday sauce….topped with a little grated cheese.

He said it was flavored very good!

Don Michael’s Restaurant is a casual neighborhood type restaurant that serves very large portions and is reasonably priced.
