Sierra Gold is a 24/7 gaming, bar, and restaurant type place with 5 locations in Vegas. Sierra Gold is part of the PT family of gaming bar restaurants. The Aliante North Las Vegas Location is mostly all hightop tables inside and there are PLENTY of them (around the bar, two separate dining areas and a private dining area.. We did manage to find one normal traditional table so I wouldn’t recommend any handicapped people to dine here.

Inside is the usual bar with the big screen TVs and games.

The menu is basically an American Menu that also includes breakfast dishes.

We came here because I wanted a salad for lunch and they have FIVE salads on their menu.

I tried an Asian Chopped Salad. (Napa Cabbage, red cabbage, chicken, carrots, Fresno chilies, cucumber, wonton strips, almonds, soy-ginger dressing)

Not bad It’s A-OK my only problem here is that the Fresno Chilies are abnormally hot and way too hot for a salad but I note that usually Fresno Chilies are usually only mildly hot.

My husband tried the Grilled Italian Sandwich (salami, capicola, provolone, onion, pepperoncini, vinaigrette) He was going to order a burger but they won’t give him a medium-rare burger here because they only cook burgers medium-well.

He said it was A-OK…..not the best but A-OK He did enjoy the nicely seasoned curley fries.

Worth a Try!

In case you are interested – Able and Baker are code names of the first two atomic bombs that were dropped on the Nevada Test Site during WWII.

Well now we have a new Able Baker Bomb Shelter that offers craft beers and craft foods. They offer a good sized bar and bar area, a separate dining area, and two outdoor patios.

I got the impression that they are still working things out on the menu because the crispy cauliflower was changed since the menu was printed.

After trying it this is the one dish they might still have to work on. It’s too soft and too bland.But don’t worry all the other food we tried was great!

It’s a salad called strawberry fields with added salmon. The salmon is really good today. It’s a nice big piece that is seasoned well. it’s moist, it’s juicy, it has a medium center. The salad is soft greens with goat cheese, strawberries, and walnuts with a vinaigrette dressing. It’s good but a bit too heavy with the dressing.

My husband tried the pork belly dip sandwich with fries.

He said that it was delicious and very good. Only peeves – Most of the meat was only on 1/2 the sandwich and the other peeve is that they were a bit too light with the caramelized onions.

Below are all the caramelized onions he got.

I packed up 1/2 my salad so I would have room to try some dessert.

It’s called a brioche cinnamon roll and it’s topped with ube gelato. It’s very light and delicate except for the gelato that is very hard. It’s good but very delicate in texture and flavors.

Firefly Tapas is a Spanish Style Taps Restaurant and Bar with two locations in Vegas, The Hughes Center Drive location is located near to the Las Vegas Strip. It’s spacious and rich looking inside with a large bar area, large dining areas and a large patio.

Whatever you order they always offer you complimentary bread with delicious spiced butter with almonds.

Our favorite tapas from our last visit was the tuna tartare so we got it again.

It’s different. This tuna tastes more like raw tuna.

Last time the tuna was marinated and had a delicious sauce. See below.

Don’t know what happened with the tuna tartare here?

The apple manchego salad was delicious and very good.

So was the tomato basil soup with mini grilled cheese but-

One sandwich hardy had any cheese in it.

I thought the stuffed peppers were tasty.

The steak and mushroom skewers also were delicious but –

The steak is very chewy

That was my trip to Firefly Tapas

Las time the food was either perfect or amazing. (well most places aren’t perfect all the time)

This time slightly hit and miss.

Marché Bacchus is a contemporary French Style Restaurant and Wine Bar and Store located about ten minutes away from the Las Vegas Strip. The restaurant has changed ownership a few times over the years. I read on www.360Vegas.com that Celebrity Chef Alex Stratta and his Executive Chef Dave Middleton created the menu but those chefs are no longer with Marché Bacchus. The restaurant offers a stunning lakeside atmosphere. It also offers over 950 choices of wine.

After multiple visits I can recommend getting The French Dip and the ever changing menu of desserts because both were so far delicious and top notch on all our visits.

Below is the chocolate tart with blood orange sorbet

The most disappointing plate here might be the HK Burger

The roll tastes burnt and the burger has almost no flavor at all. I was told that the burger is ground in house and the menu reads that this is a Linz (from Chicago) Angus patty. The burger comes with your choice of fries or a salad and at the time of my visit was $28.

Pictures below are from previous visits. All the desserts and the beef bourguignon was very good.

Stunning Atmosphere and lots of wine to try.

Some things are better than other things here so enjoy the lovely atmosphere, maybe drink some wine, and get the French Dip and the desserts!

Gjelina is a contemporary restaurant and bar that is located on restaurant row in the Venetian Hotel/Casino. During lunch time they offer a menu with raw fish, salads, sandwiches, hand made pastas, wood fired pizzas, platters, vegetable sides, and more.

Inside are multiple dining areas and a bar.

We shared a vegetable side order of Oyster Mushrooms with Guajillo Pepper, and Cilantro-Avocado Emulsion.

Tasty – It’s almost like chicken taco filling. Somehow I almost wish this was a taco.

My main was the Blackened Sea Bass Sandwich withBlack Garlic Aioli and Slaw and house made potato chips.

This is harder to eat than it looks. There is a very generous amount of pickled vegetables under all that fish. It’s all very good but also hard to eat. The house made potato chips are also very good. Nice and crisp and seems free of oil.

My husband tried a Cured Chorizo Pizza (pomodoro, Calabrian Chili, Red Onion, Mozzarella)

They bring him seasonings too.

He said that this pizza was delicious and very good.

Gjelina is certainly Worth a Try!
