Default Dave's Famous BBQ

Famous Dave's is very good.

However, when I'm in Las Vegas I want something that's unique to Las
Vegas, and not something I can get any day just by driving down the
street. Famous Dave's is all over the upper midwest.

The one we do like is Memphis BBQ on Warm Springs, which is apparently
a local outfit. There are some more around town, one of them in a
casino or so I've been told.

Another one that keeps getting recommended is Big Mama's, but we've
just never made it there.

If you go to Memphis on Warm Springs, ask for the waiter who does magic
tricks. :)

I feel the same about places like Lawry's or Hard Rock. They are very
good, but there's really nothing "Vegas" about them. Oh well ... :)

That's why the only good thing about Circus Crapus is The Steakhouse....not
a chain and top of the line
the only bad part is having to walk thru CC to get to it

ROFL! (but it's not really funny!) :(

Not to be a snot, but one thing I *HATE* about the chain places is that
put-on canned introduction, robot like, pushing all of the high-margin
appetizers, but not knowing anything substantive, like how some dish is
prepared.

LOL! I sometimes feel like interrupting them and in that 80's vintage
weather-twinkie voice (yes, I can do that one) "Hi, my name is Annie,
and I'll be your guest tonite. First (tee-hee) let me tell you about
...." :) :) :) <meow!>
