Was sad to learn this past week that Bottles & Burgers is closed and the restaurant is completely empty of all furniture. Was very surprised given how good this place was. I haven’t heard from Double Helix or Tivoli Village why they closed.

Came here with hubby to check out the happy hour and were greeted by a very perky hostess. I’ve been to Tivoli Village many times and have observed that it has never been busy. Walking into B&B was no different. I wasn’t sure how to describe the vibe: there is a regular bar in the middle of the restaurant, a milkshake bar on the left side upon entering, and red booths occupying the rest of the interior space. Four flat screen TV’s beam down sports games for those inclined to watch. Is this place a bar, a restaurant, a brewpub? Our server was nice enough and suggested we try the sampler appy plate, as it is large enough to share. He was right! Our appy sampler included 2 pulled pork sliders, 2 regular sliders(these were subbed for the wings, as they ran out of the wings), one Mexican hotdog(sour cream/avocado/jalapeño peppers), fries(soggy and a bit cold), and half a dozen risotto balls(deep fried… so good but so bad for you!). Hubby ordered the DH draft for $ 2 and pronounced it «really good!» Yeah, it actually was pretty good(I’m a non-beer drinker, so that’s a big compliment). The food all tasted great, with the exception of the fries, which were cold and limp. Not too impressive. Overall, I think B&B really wants you to like it, but can’t decided how to market itself. Would I come again? Maybe, if only to see if the fries are hot!

My husband and I came to Tivoli Village for the first time today. After checking out the Farmer’s Market and noticing that there were only a few shops to browse through, we decided to stay for lunch. On a side note, I do see a lot of potential for this place. It reminds me of something I would see in my old hometown of Irvine, CA. Hopefully when the economy recovers, more stores will open up and it will be a great place to shop, eat, and hang out. We wanted to eat at Leone Café, but after seeing how crowded it was, we walked down a bit further and found ourselves between Brio Tuscan Grille and Bottles & Burgers. Brio also looked like it was filling up pretty quickly, so we decided to try this place out. We sat on the patio since the weather was so nice. Our server Andre was very friendly and attentive. He explained the menu very well, making suggestions from their most popular gourmet burgers, adult milkshakes, and he gave detailed descriptions of their desserts. I ordered the Blazin’ Sliders(comes with 2), which were great! The Angus ground chuck was very juicy and cooked well. The bacon and guacamole also made them very tasty. The sliders came with their regular hand cut fries, which weren’t very good. Most of it was soggy and didn’t have much taste. I suggest ordering any of the other fries that they have on the menu, which look more delicious! My husband ordered the Double Helix BBQ burger and really enjoyed it. He said it was one of the best burgers he had ever eaten and that it was«life changing.» lol. I gotta admit, it did look like a great burger because they put BBQ Short Rib on top of the Angus beef. My only complaint here was the plate they used for the sliders. It gets messy when you eat burgers and the small rectangular plates are not a good fit for that. Bigger plates please? For dessert, we ordered the Opera Cake, which was excellent. It was kind of like a Tiramisu, but with more chocolate. Thin layers of chocolate cake and a hint of coffee bisque. Not too sweet and yummy! Also served with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream. My only complaint here was that our scoop of ice cream kept moving around on our plate because they put it on top of a bed of whipped cream. Not a bad find. Prices were reasonable as well. I would like to come back to try the BBQ Pork Sliders and more desserts! According to their website, two out of the three patios that they have are pet friendly. Yay! I wont have to worry about bringing my dog along next time!

Bottles & Burgers. What can I say? Three times have I tried your burgers, and each time you leave me with a lukewarm feeling about your food. Now, I’m questioning your service. BEERS, BURGERS, AND7CHIPS I’ve dined at Bottles & Burgers twice, but I’ve also had the opportunity to sample a slider at the 2012 Las Vegas Epicurean Affair at The Palazzo. So I’ll give a quick run down about the food I’ve tried. But first off, I think Bottles & Burgers is stingy with their potato chips. Each time I’ve ordered a burger, which comes with a side of potato chips, I’ve always received between 4 – 7 potato chips. There isn’t a potato famine, Bottles & Burgers. It’s OK to give out more. +Franziskaner Hefe Weiss: Meh. +Veg Out: I ordered this on my first visit. The patty is made from quinoa and mushrooms, and the burger’s topped with onions, cheese, and rosemary aioli. The patty was dry and fell apart within seconds of biting into my burger. +Double Helix Fries: The french fries are seasoned with herbs and come with a side of sherry aioli. I finished these off and left my burger alone. + At the last Las Vegas Epicurean Affair, I tried one of their newest sliders, which I unfortunately can’t recall the name at the moment. The patty was topped with caramelized onions. I enjoyed the slider and the juiciness of the beef, but then the woman who was preparing my plate slapped onto it four potato chips, but handfuls to others. REALLY? They had a whole bowl of chips but couldn’t have given me, I don’t know, two more? I’m not asking for much but four is pitiful. +Spicy Turkey: I tried this on my most recent visit. This burger is far from being spicy, despite the chipotle aioli that was spread beneath the peppery turkey patty. Overall, the burger was bland, and I think the over-peppered patty was a sad flavoring attempt. With this order I received seven potato chips with one stray french fry(what a treat and a tease.). SERVICE I don’t recall how the service was like on my first visit, but on my recent one I thought service was inexcusably slow, at least for me. Everyone, as in the seven other diners in the restaurant, were receiving service from their waiters, but mine only showed up to take my order, give me my water, and hand me my bill. He never returned to check on me after my meal was served. OTHER I do like how one of the televisions is tuned to a soccer channel. Each time I’ve visited I’ve managed to catch glimpses of whatever game is being aired. If there’s anything that pleases me about Bottles & Burgers, it’s the soccer channel. OVERALL I’ve thought about returning here for Happy Hour, but after my most recent visit and thinking about my previous experiences with Bottles & Burgers, I’ve reached the conclusion that it’s a hit-or-miss with the burgers and even with the service. There’s a possibility I might return, but not anytime in the near future.

Friday night in Summerlin is often a challenge. There are many choices but it seems that Friday is when the entire population tries to get a table at the same time. I have started to use Open Table for reservations with varying degrees of success. the first time I booked here, I received a phone call shortly afterwards to tell me they could not seat us. This time I tried again, I waited for my phone call to cancel me but it didn’t come. Good! Off we go. We arrive on time and are seated immediately. Nice. We order some drinks and some wings for an appetizer. Wings were a little crispy, I am not sure if that was the intent. OK, only OK. Wifee, myself and teenager ordered Burgers. I took the one with lobster, $ 5 extra for a tiny piece of crustacean and sauce. Hum? Wifee had Turkey and teen built his own. The burgers were good, cooked medium and a good size. But it’s $ 5 extra for fries. Burgers, in my opinion, should be served with fries NOT soggy potato chips. I believe it is complete gouging to charge 50% of the burger price for the fries. Smaller son had kids chicken fingers and fries and it was ok but the portion was small. So 3 burgers, 1 kids meals 2 wine, 2 beer and 2 sodas $ 100. Too much, food was ok but I can spend $ 100 on better. Bye.

Second visit. I did not review it the first time. The first visit was shortly after it opened. One improvement is the window tinting which reduces the bright sun shining in during the early evening. The service was prompt and pleasant and the orders came out quickly. We ordered 2 wines from the Happy Hour menu. The only disappointment is that Reisling is only available on the regular drink menu. Consequently Reisling was double the price of the other white wines on the Happy Hour drink menu. The chicken strips were great with a very nice crunch to the breading. Also the two pulled pork mini sanwiches were very tasty with just the right amount of sauce. Since there are many choices in Tivoli Village and more coming it probably will be a while before we go back. I

One of my husband’s friends was in town this past week so we decided to hit up a local happy hour. B&B has their happy hour from 4 – 7 and seemed like the perfect spot for us to catch up. We walked in at 6:30 on a Wednesday and were seated in a booth near the bar right away. The server was attentive without being overbearing and our orders came out very quickly. Now for the important part: Cucumber Martini $ 6 It was a gin Martini with a cucumber twist. I have been on a gin kick recently so this was the perfect happy hour drink for me. It was the perfect blend to go with my food. DH Draft $ 2 I wasn’t sure what was on tap because this was my husband’s drink and I didn’t steal a sip, but $ 2 bucks is a pretty damn good price and he seemed to enjoy it. Sampler $ 23 — Thyme wings, fancy hot dog, sliders, delicious fries, quesadilla, It was pretty much happy hour happiness. Each of the different food items came with a different dipping sauce which I think was my favorite part. What can I say… I’m a dipper. My husband and I ate most of the food because our friend had a buffet for lunch earlier and just wanted to hang out, but it could have easily feed all three of us. Other details: The facility that B&B is located in is beautiful. For those of you Unilocalers familiar with LA it is a little bit like a Mini Grove in Las Vegas with easier parking and hotter/colder temps outside(depending on what time of year you come). Overall: Good food + good service = A happy happy hour goer

We originally went to Tivoli to get some pizza but as we walked by this place, we said, what the hell, let’s try it. Good decision. It was 7 on a Saturday night, and honestly, the place was a little empty. Kinda strange I thought, but whatever, we got seated right away. Good selection of beers, draft and bottle, tons of wine options, full and half bottles. They have a nice house Double Helix Chardonnay as well as a good, light house Double Helix lager on draft. The burger selection was good, plus you can build your own. Would be nice to have more topping choices for the BYO, but they have the basics covered. I had the sweet bleu bacon burger, nicely cooked, great toasted brioche bun. Fries were server in one of those conical stand with the faux newspaper wrapper, keeps those bad boys hot through the entire meal. And at no time every do I consider a ½ pound burger small. It was cooked perfectly and definitely big enough. We got a side salad too, and the one annoying thing about that was the plate it was served on was a small rectangle shape and every time you forked a bite, stuff went flying all over the place, a bit annoying. Guys, serve it a larger plate or put it in a bowl! When we left around 8pm and there may have been 4 people in the entire place… the guy at the bar looked like he was about to cry, sorry man, it’s gonna be a long night for ya! Too bad, hopefully it picks up for them, I’d go back for sure.

Had a total of 6 people in my party and I wanted to try this place out at Tivolli Village in Summerlin. Bad Decision . The hostess was the only good part about the place as she greeted us with a friendly smile. Went to the table … nice atmosphere. Ordered drinks and the waiter forgot to take my order!(Guess being in a wheelchair he thought I was part of the furniture) He started to walk away and I said to him«What, people in wheelchairs dont get drinks? «LOL … he was very apologetic. The food was meh … I had the double Helix and fries … My friend had a salad and a Martini for 32.00? WTF!!! The end of the meal we got our bill and noticed a 20 percent gratuity added … for 6 people? Isnt it usually 8 people? When we asked the waiter about the bill he just said that he didnt know about it … he just worked there. WTF!!! Didnt do a single thing to explain the bill. That left a bad taste in my mouth and I will never go there again.

I wish I could give a 3.5…we had good food and service but the burgers are missing the mark that day, especially for the price. We had multiple people at our table and there were also a lot of over cooked burgers, my husband ordered his burger medium rare and it was brown through out, not even close. He got the Double Helix burger which had BBQ shortrib on top so the burger didn’t seem dry and they are smaller than a lot of burger joints with better burgers. We shared some Baltimore fries which were a bit disappointing, not enough gravy, not enough cheese, I’m used to messy gravy cheese fries dripping with flavor. I got the Arancini(Yum) again as well as the Rosso Bruno Caprese, fresh and flavorful! We also decided to share the Hostess with the Mostess Shake after much goading from myself… I love cake and this hit the mark. We were meeting a group of friends for this dinner, but once we got there realized it was Happy hour(4 – 7 everyday at the bar and firepit) so we got our drinks at the bar, the chef even brought us out blue cheese topped chips while we waited for our drinks. I got the Double Helix drink which was sweet and light. We saved half getting our drinks at the bar, there were also a lot of good food options at great happy hour prices. A friend at our table went up to the bar to get the half priced drinks after we told him about the happy hour prices, the bartender gave him a hard time about having a table, so he sat at the bar and said«Now I’m sitting here», the bartender had no argument. But it shouldn’t be an issue the bar was empty, he wasn’t taking his time away from someone else, and he got his tip. I hate when happy hours are only in designated areas. I would highly encourage a visit for the happy hour, if I went back that would be why. I doubt a visit for a burger is in the future, there are a better options in Vegas. And Burger Joints in Vegas are plentiful.

Our first time eating at Bottles & Burgers and all though the food was good; we were slightly disappointed. The burgers were supposed to be cooked medium and we were served well done. We were with other couples who had the same issue. The burgers tasted great even though they were overcooked. My husband felt that the double helix burger was small for the fact that it cost $ 15. The homemade potato chips were very good. If you visit we highly recommend an adult milkshake. We shared a Choco-cherry shake and it was delicious. We also ventured to try a dessert and we were not disappointed. The mouse cake was very light and bursting with flavor.

Met a friend for Happy Hour and naturally, I was late, so she was already there seated at a table. I learned after a while that this was an accommodation: she’s in a wheelchair and Happy Hour is only in the bar area, which has high stools and booths. Neither one works for her, so we were in the front dining area. She said it was handled graciously and wasn’t an issue. Score one for the restaurant. She was too hungry to wait for my arrival, so she ordered the goat cheese appetizer — a mound of the cheese, surrounded by home-made potato chips. Individually, they were both terrific, but together just doesn’t work. The chips are so light and thin that they can’t be used to scoop the cheese, and even the little spoon supplied doesn’t work; the chip just crumbles instantly. The tasty goat cheese deserves a different pairing. We ordered a Build Your Own Burger from the regular menu, adding only avocado. The burger wasn’t overly large, but there was a good amount of avocado. The burger came with — more chips! But the bun was the smallest I’ve ever seen, not much bigger than a slider bun. We were sharing the burger since, apparently, my friend eats like a bird, and neither of us would have eaten a whole bun anyway. Still, you’ll get full from a burger from TGIF, but here you’ll have to order other stuff. I had their Sangria, made from a «Special Recipe.» When I tried to find out what was in it, the waitress said she doesn’t know, it changes all the time, whatever the bartender wants to throw into it. It was very good, and indeed, the second glass didn’t taste exactly like the first! The décor is cute, kinda like an old-fashioned diner(not a NY Greek diner!), and not upscale. The service was top-notch from start to finish.

Stopped in around 8pm last night after shopping for Prom accessories with my niece. Hostess was friendly and informed us of a 10 minute wait asking if we wanted to leave a phone number to shop which I thought was very nice, but we chose to wait on a comfy couch as my feet were hurting from shopping in heels. Mija & I perused menu while waiting less than 10 minutes. We were asked if a booth was ok and seated at a large and comfortable booth in back. Previous reviewers have knocked the décor, but I liked the industrial feel to black walls & high ceilings and those big red booths. Our server arrived promptly and was very courteous. We ordered immediately: a to go Lobster Roll(which I intended as a treat for my Dad, more on that later) Repo Man for me(small, expensive but packing a punch) a strawberry milkshake for Mija(small, expensive but she LOVED it). I had the veggie burger and Mija build your own with cheddar and avocado. My veggie burger is pictured: I found it to be very good, but impossible to eat without fork and knife as it was very loosely packed and almost undercooked(no sear on outside) however it was very moist and tasty and anything but run of the mill(4*s) the bun was a brioche but rather greasy for my taste. Accompanying chips were great. One thing I truly missed was a pickle: how are you going to serve burgers and no pickle?! Mija’s burger was cooked to a perfect medium and she proclaimed it «bomb» Service was attentive though I did have to ask once for water refills. As in previous reviews, I have to agree that there did appear to be a large number of staff on the floor. There were a couple of odd instances that occurred at nearby tables: a woman knocked her chair over and took out an entire tables worth of a poor waiters tray with it: immediately several staff members rallied to clean up and even reassured the visibly shaken woman that«it happens all the time» thought that was nice. Then, a very pregnant lady with her husband and toddler were seated across from us in another booth. Both the husband(and I) said«she can’t fit in there comfortably» and then, oddly, she tried and when they asked for another spot the hostess replied«yes but I’ll have to check where because I’m not sure how to work who’s table is up next!» strange thing to say, almost like she was thinking out loud. Here is where my Pet Peeve-omoter kicks in: the waiter boxed our leftovers & I was perusing bill. It was $ 49& change with a $ 1 «to go» charge added for Lobster Roll. Personally, at a «premium» joint, I found this to be tacky. When I got home and looked at the«lobster roll» my heart sank. It was literally minuscule on a brioche the size of a golf ball! The claw meat was so tiny I was convinced it wasn’t lobster at all.(see photo) tasted it pre run this morning and it was not at all what I was expecting: very little«lobster» lots of peppers: filler. not at all the juicy succulent New England/Hamptons Lobstah Roll. Sadly, it went into the trash. So, we had some hits: service, atmosphere, shake & we both enjoyed the burgers. I do however agree that for the price, you are not receiving bang for your buck. Burger Bar, LBS are better value IMHO. Lobster Roll a complete miss. I’d go back for sure, there are several salads that sound divine(particularly a pear/walnut ensemble) and I enjoy Tivoli as a nearby destination to shop, listen to music etc. Hopefully they will work out the kinks. I rounded up from 2.5 to 3 because I see potential here and have been searching out«the perfect veggie burger» for a while now. As a former vegan & mainly pescetarian, a great veggie burger will make me loyal beyond compare.

Returned to Bottles + Burgers today and nothing has changed: this restaurant is still as excellent and as underrated as ever. It seems they’ve listened to the comments here on Unilocal as all burgers are now larger than they used to be and also come with chips. Meaning that I, a hungry chick with plenty of belly room, ended up leaving several bites of burger on my plate, and the chips — while light and tasty — went mostly untouched in favor of the sweet potato fries and Double Helix fries on the side. I know people were complaining here about not getting the artisan fries included with their burgers, but that’s a boggle. This isn’t a diner, folks, and prices are low enough to encourage ordering a $ 4 side of fries. But now everyone can be happy, so come on back, ye grumpy little Unilocalsters, and please give B+B another go.(My prodding here is entirely selfish; I don’t want to lose the best vegetarian burger in Las Vegas.) This time I tried a different salad(the one with bleu cheese and mandarin) and it was every bit as subtle yet flavorful as the«Pear“fection salad I had last time. As my husband suggested to the waiter, it would be good if they offered half-salads(even if not for half-price) because the salads are almost a full meal. Now that the burgers are bigger and include chips, I would have to rethink the salad next time or else be more wasteful than I’d like, and it would be a shame to miss out on the salad. What I didn’t try was the old-fashioned sodas, which is odd because normally I’m all about notching new soft drinks. I think I avoided it because, in the photos on the table, the«special» sodas look like nothing more than bottles of Jones Soda knockoffs. I like Jones, but it’s not amazing. Besides, when I hear the term«old-fashioned soda,» I’m thinking of hand-pulled egg creams and lime rickeys. But I guess they call it BOTTLES+Burgers for a reason. Still, if they’re taking suggestions, it would be great if B+B became sort of like the restaurant version of Rocket Fizz, selling a wide variety of lesser-known(or less-available) drinks. Surely the valley’s many soda fiends would love to be able to go out to eat and get something more exotic than a Jarritos or IBC.(Locally made Joe’s Cola, with that hint of honey taste, or Fresh Ginger Ale, with the pulpy ginger bits, would be my top choices.) I wouldn’t mind more non-alcoholic milkshake options, either. I’m sure the standard choc/van/straw offerings are tasty given the quality of the rest of the fare(there is a daily special, but on today’s visit it was just double chocolate), but I still dream of BLT’s Nut Job milkshake, and I loathe BLT in every other way. Not to get greedy, but if B+B had even a fraction of Cheeburger Cheeburger’s shake/malt(malt!) selection, I wonder if I’d still be able to just walk in and get a table without a wait. Summer is coming. A more inventive shake(or malt!) selection for all ages would be a great break from the oppressive heat. But again, this is a great restaurant, casual for any time of group yet aesthetically pleasing and creative. The servers are friendly; the owner often checks up on tables to make sure all is well; their social marketing presence is useful and personal, and the food is just screaming tasty.

This is one place that I think is underrated. It may be a notch below the top spots in town, but they still have some quality burgers at reasonable prices and a menu diverse enough to placate the pickiest eaters(adults and kids). For starters, the mascarpone and white truffle aioli added a lot of richness to an otherwise bland arancini($ 8) dish. The DV tacos($ 9), however, were delicious with their tender chunks of flavorful beef atop flour tortillas. The sweet bacon bleu burger($ 9, certified angus beef, sweet onion marmalade, bleu cheese, arugula, roasted tomatoes, applewood bacon) was tasty but the bun was too small in comparison to the large, juicy patty. The Fellini fries($ 4) were solid, especially if you’re a fan of truffle oil. They’ve got a wide range of shakes(virgin and the adult variety) and floats, not to mention beer and wine. I tried a Blue Moon float(Blue Moon and orange sherbet) which sounded better than it tasted. My biggest complaint is about the service. It drives me crazy when waiters don’t write down orders. I don’t care how good they think their memories are, they have a pen and paper for a reason. So, of course our waiter doesn’t write our orders down, walks away, then comes back twice to ask us about our order. I’m not sure if the guy was new or not, but he seemed to be overwhelmed by everything. All the more reason to write stuff down. There’s no doubt that if I come here again I’ll ask for a different waiter.

Happy Hour is awesome and the Cucumber Martini is terrific!(I put a pic on Unilocal of it) I’d give it 5 stars but something I can’t put my finger on is off with the ambience — but other than that it’s great. Staff is very nice. Good outdoor patios. The sliders are fantastic!

I had the build your own burger that came with a handful of homemade chips. The burger and chips were delicious ! I think the size of the burger would be best with not a sample of chips but a normal side of chips. Island’s can get away with giving you a sample side because their burgers are HUGE. The burgers here are a little smaller than your average gourmet burger. We wanted some fries so we ordered the Fellini Fries. The fries were yummy with the truffle aioli but there wasn’t enough aioli for all of the fries. The aioli only filled up the lower bottom of the sauce cup. I think they should at least fill the cup half way. The aioli is what makes the fries tasty so they shouldn’t be stingy with it. We typically end our meal with a shared dessert but we opted to share their Pearfection Salad. I’ve had this salad at their other restaurant Double Helix and I think it’s better than dessert! It has baby arugula, poached pears, bufala mozzarella, candied walnuts, vanilla champagne vinaigrette with balsamic syrup. It was sweet pearfection!

There are moments in life when I am sitting in a restaurant wonder how the f* I got there and why I’m even paying that much money for eh service and eh food. Although B&B is decent, I was somewhat deflated after the experience and hoped for just a touch better. First, their menu is pretty enticing. I’ve never tried short ribs stuffed into a burger before, so I went for it. I even ordered a Cesar salad and some fried risotto to start. My other half ordered the classic burger and we shared some parmesan fries. First off, the cesar was just a salad, nothing special, something bottled, so we weren’t impressed. Next, the fried risotto balls were okay, but they weren’t something I’d go nuts over or dream about. Here’s the kicker. I was hoping that my first short rib stuffed burger experience would be great. Unfortunately, it was just okay. I think if they mixed the short ribs in to the burger patty, it would’ve been a better result. In the end it was okay, but not something I’d come back for over and over again. We decided to try the soda fountain, so we ordered an old fashioned soda. It came in a bottle. I was somewhat confused because I assumed the soda counter had the club soda and the syrups to mix by order, but I guess not. Oh well. In the end it’s another trendy burger joint with unique menu items. The end.

I came here for a pre-fixe menu for Valentine’s Day. It was actually pretty fun. It’s a casual place, don’t expect anything fancy. Diner type tables and décor. We started out with the cheese and charcuterie plate, which was pretty good. Nice prosciutto. The brie it came with was a little boring. Next we had the garden of Eden salad, which was pretty tasty. A nice light salad with lots of vegetables. Then we got to try three different sliders: blazin’, BBQ pork, and Mama’s meatball. The BBQ pork blew them all away. Yummy, tender goodness. The blazin’ was pretty good, but just a typical slider with bacon. The Mama’s meatball was bland and hard to eat. A round meatball in a tiny bun with a little bit of tomato sauce is not the best idea in the world. They also gave us regular fries and sweet potato fries(what they call Southern fries) with some sort of pink dipping sauce. I’m usually a fry fiend, but these things were not too good. The dinner came with samplings of the Double Helix wine — sparking wine, chardonnay, and zinfandel. I wouldn’t recommend it. Definitely get something else besides the house wine. The best part was the Hostess with the Mostess adult milkshake. They blend a Hostess cupcake with ice cream and cake flavored vodka. It sounds disgusting, but it was actually pretty amazing. It looks like they have a strong beer selection on tap. A dedicated kegerator for Stella and some selections from Stone and other craft brews. Service was good and enthusiastic. I definitely want to come back to try more of the adult milkshakes and other booze. Maybe a few sliders. Glad its in the neighborhood.

Gourmet burgers and sides designed to pair well with wine. WIN! Well maybe just«win». Another case of an unfocused restaurant trying to please everyone. The décor is cool, retro chic. They offer retro sodas, drinks, and even«adult» milkshakes. Great. The problem, nothing makes these gourmet burgers and fries taste as good as wine. The food is so wine centric, playing off the natural acidity and refreshing, clean fruit finish that drinking anything else doesn’t work. If you are a wine lover, this place elevates the humble burger and fries to a new level of enjoyment. For beef lovers, the double helix stuffed burger is excellent. A traditional burger stuffed with very flavorful braised short ribs and finished with horseradish. Juicy, beefy goodness. For veggie lovers, the quinoa and mushroom burger with charred tomatoes watercress cheddar cheese and an explosively flavorful rosemary aioli is a must try. Even this hard core carnivore loved it. The fries, while not the crispiest or fluffiest, come with toppings and dips that make them good eats. Parmesan with truffle aioli. Small selection of fresh but simple salads(the salad of poached pear, fresh mozzarella and candies walnuts on a bed of arugula with the vanilla infused champagne vinaigrette is outstanding; creamy, peppery, tart, sweet and a nice play of textures). Note: If you are not enjoying some wine or other calorie laden drink, you will find the portions small. The local service(as opposed to the [insert adjective] service of the Strip) is quick and friendly. Very good selection of well priced half bottles. Great concept that would benefit from some editing and relocation to the Strip. Great for wine lovers but not worth the drive for the casual Vegas visitor or those living in Henderson for the food alone.
