Born And Raised is a 24/7 Sports Bar and Restaurant with four locations in Las Vegas. Besides bar drinks they also offer bar bites like bulgogi tacos, crispy zucchini, and steak poutine. They also offer salads, wraps, burgers, sliders, all day breakfast, and what they call favorites like buffalo chicken macaroni and cheese, dragon bowls, and tequila lime chicken pasta.

You can sit in the bar area.

Or you can have a seat in the main dining area with lots of big screen TVs.

In this room is one strange hilarious chair.

Anyways-

I thought the Bar Signature Salad sounded great so that’s what I ordered.

It’s moist chicken breast (They say it’s blackened but isn’t so blackened but it is tasty and moist so that’s ok). This salad also contains greens, strawberries, oranges, candied pistachios, goat cheese, and strawberry dressing. It was just right for me today. I’d get it again.

My husband said that the Mexico City Prime Beef Burger was very good!

They cooked it to a perfect medium-rare as requested. This burger is topped with pepper jack cheese, an onion ring, pickled jalapeno, and chipotle mayo (left off at request) and comes with lettuce, tomato slice, raw onion, and fries.

Based on this visit I’d say that Born And Raised is Worth a Try!

Mother Wolf is a Luxury Roman – Italian Restaurant located in the Fontainebleau Casino/Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada. The James Beard Award Winning Chef of this restaurant is Chef Evan Funke. Who is a Master Pasta Maker.

The two stand out dishes offered here are the Sfincione (chef’s Signature focaccia) and his cacio e pepe.

It’s a large formal restaurant with more than one dining area, a bar, and an open kitchen. Rap music fills the air…..

We started out by sharing some of the chef’s signature focaccia called Sfincione.

It’s hot out of the oven. It’s fluffy, moist, and tasty.

Next is our pasta course. This was Linguine Al Lemon (oil, lemon, asparagus, pecorino cheese)

It’s delicious, well seasoned and prepared with perfect pasta….

I ordered the tuna alla puttanesca (big eye tuna steak, tomatoes, Taggiasca olives, capers, basil)

This is drop the mike moment – GET THIS – THIS IS THE DISH TO GET! And you need some of the sfincione (focaccia) to help mop things up.

To start with the tuna is also amazing. It’s a large portion and is maybe the freshest tasting tuna I ever had anywhere. It’s also tender as can be. These tomatoes are also the best tasting tomatoes. There are different flavors of basil here, pops of capers, fancy little olives that are different. This dish is a reason on why you would dine here.

My husband ordered the Saltimbocca (pounded veal, prosciutto, sage, white wine, butter, lemon, with a wild arugula salad.)

Tonight the veal is a little tough and dry….but still edible. Instead of our waiter waiting for us to take a few bites…Instead he asked us how the plates were as soon as they arrived. We told him that the plates looked good……

The wild arugula salad.

My husband said that this salad was very good and insisted that I taste it…..I thought the vinegar used was incredibly harsh. I can’t eat it but then again I am more sensitive.

This is a small restaurant that fills up fast.

We started out with some margaritas and chips and salsa.

My husband enjoyed the steak ranchero burrito packed with cheese, rice, and beans and topped with red guajillo sauce and more cheese.

I tried the birria ramen.

I liked the eggs because they were nice and jammy. The beef isn’t bad because it’s tender and flavorful. They also gave a generous portion of beef. For my taste the broth is too fatty for me to eat it but my husband has a different taste and enjoys this. He will eat it over the next two days.

Worth a Try!

Thai St Cafe has two locations in Las Vegas Nevada. I went to the Centennial Location. I wanted to come here because I read that they also do the fried Spinach Salad that many Thai Restaurants do here…….WTFork?……We walked in and immediately I knew I was here before……..But last time this restaurant was named Secret Of Siam…….Then I read about Secret of Siam in trouble for accidentally adding THC to their curries and many people got sick. The restaurant closed while under investigation and the judgement concluded Accidental. The Restaurant re-opened and in a short time became Thai St Cafe. I have found out that they are under a new ownership now.

It looks exactly the same inside as before.

The menu is exactly the same as before.

I decide not to get the spinach salad.

Got the eggplant with chicken with a #3 heat out of 5.

It looks exactly the same as before. It’s actually slightly less flavorful and not as spicy so it differs some. It’s good but not my favorite version of this dish. I like when the eggplants are more firm and less oily and more sweet like white eggplants.

My husband tried the drunken noodles with chicken.

He said that his chicken was dry and he got grumpy.

That was my visit to Thai St Cafe.

Blue Kitchen Garlic Noodle Bar is an Asian – Soul – Fusion sort of restaurant that offers various noodle dishes and also a lot of seafood dishes. They also offer sharable plates such as bao buns, wings, and shrimp fried rice balls. They also offer small plates like Asian style chicken or oxtail tacos, deep fried lobster tails, and jumbo stuffed shrimp. The main dig might be the garlic noodles that come in a few varieties of shrimp, a couple in chicken, salmon, lamb, crab cake salmon, oxtail, ribeye, bbq ribs, and Gumbo Pot pie. Soft beverages and house made lemonades are served here. This restaurant is located in the North-West part of Las Vegas Nevada.

It’s comfortable inside with soft soul music in the air.

We started out by sharing the Chicken Asian Style Tacos.

They are 4 tacos made with fried potsticker skins and are stuffed with juicy Asian style chicken, sesame seeds, chives, sweet garlic aioli, and wasabi avocado aioli. They are crunchy light and delicious with lots of layers of flavors.

I tried the Korean Sticky Chicken with Garlic Noodles and a Pineapple lemonade.

The lemonade is not too sweet and is refreshing and comes with a lot of fresh fruit.

The Korean Sticky Chicken was expertly fried. The exteriors of each piece of chicken are shattering crisp and the interiors are extra juicy and flavorful in a sticky slightly sweet and spicy sauce. The noodles are chewy and tasty and not too garlic-ee. It also an extra generous portion of food…I doubt most people can eat more than half.

My husband thinks he ordered the Pan Fried Garlic Shrimp?

Well anyway he got one of the shrimp dishes that he said was delicious with perfectly prepared shrimp.

Tasty Fresh Food.

Extra large portions.

Reasonable prices.

Worth a Fork!

Escargot – snails, parsley, butter, shallots, garlic – my husband enjoyed this and some of the warm pistachio goat cheese.

Course two –

Sole Meunière – with brown butter, garlic, capers, lemon, and parsley. Fingerling potatoes. The fish seemed fresh as can be and was the lightest sole meunière I ever had anywhere.

Duck with green beans and mustard sauce – I heard that this was good.

The Market Grill Cafe is a full service Greek, Italian, Mediterranean Restaurant located in the Centennial Area of Las Vegas Nevada. This is a family owned and ran restaurant that has been voted “Best of Las Vegas” for several years. The Proprietors are Joe and Rhonda Pierro and one is Greek and the other is Italian so the restaurant is a spin on what they know.

Some of the appetizers they offer are saganaki (flaming cheese), tabouli, and baba ganoush. They also offer soups and salads, Greek favorites like moussaka (beef, eggplant, potato casserole), pastitsio (beef macaroni pie), spanakopita (spinach and cheese pastry). They also offer a list of pastas, and offer several entrees including three lamb dishes. Their signature award wining dish is their pomegranate chicken (I’ll describe it in a bit). They also offer a variety of desserts.

You can dine on the patio for outdoor dining but most of the seating is inside.

At night they have live music.

Here’s the saganaki.

They set it in fire before it reaches your table. The Greek cheese is flamed with lemon and brandy and comes with lots of flat pita breads.

This is delicious!

Entrees come with small Greek Salads.

For my main I had to try the Pomegranate Chicken.

This is 24 hour marinated chicken (herbs & pomegranate juice) that was grilled and sliced and topped with pomegranate glaze and crushed walnuts. This also comes with a side of hummus, pita bread, and fluffy basmati rice. The chicken is moist and tasty with a little zing from the pomegranate. I’d get this again.

My husband tried the other dish I was thinking about getting….The white fish scallopini.

The orzo that it comes with is very good but the fish isn’t so great. It’s edible but taste like from frozen fish from any of our local supermarkets and is slightly over cooked. But hey a lot of restaurants don’t do fish as well as their other dishes in the southwest.

Poke Sushitto is a casual restaurant in North Las Vegas Nevada that offers Poke Bowls and burritos. You can order sushi bowls or sushi burritos “Chipotle Style.” For beverages they offer fountain drinks, bottled water, bubble tea, Asian Fruit Drinks, Asian Teas, and Pokka Coffee. Kids meals are also offered and there are a few additional side orders. If you can’t make up your mind there also are a few suggested bowls.

If you order your way then you can order 2 or three protein bowls. The proteins I noticed were raw or baked salmon, crab, sweet or tempura shrimp, regular tuna, spicy tuna, scallops, chicken, and tofu. If you ordered a bowl you pick rice or salad or half rice and half salad as your base. They offer all kinds of vegetables and sauces and a few toppings.

I tried baked salmon with spicy tuna.

I asked for 1/2 brown rice and half salad…….I guess the girl couldn’t hear me and gave me all salad. For added vegetables I got carrots, cabbage, and corn. I also got crunchy fried strips, some ginger, scallions, yuzu miso sauce and cilantro. On the side I got a sweet soy type sauce, and sriracha mayo. Somehow it turned out flavorful and tasty.

My husband tried a three meat bowl.

I think it was mostly similar to what I got but it had tuna, shrimp, and salmon, pickled, radishes, sushi rice, and jalapeños. I forgot what sauces he went with but he also was surprised that it came out delicious! He also thought that the price was very reasonable for what he got!

Since it was very tasty and the fish seemed fresher that from a lot of neighborhood sushi places I have to say Poke Sushitto is Worth a Fork!
