Restaurants near Hoover Dam

I had high expectations of the restaurant of a person I admired for his television series. I got a hair in my food and all those expectations were over.

Our wait staff was exceptional, food was delicious and portions were generous. We had a great experience. The hostess however we felt should have been a bit friendlier. We felt she was just there doing a job, not the typical friendly and apprexiative hosts that make a first impression. Hopefully she was just having a low day and not the norm.

Bachhanal Buffet is like what was expected based on our research, and more. As lovers of all things crustacean, we definitely enjoyed the plentiful crab legs, lobster claws, prawns, Dungeness crab and shrimp. What was a pleasant surprise was how they have so much more, and everything was really good. We indulged in salmon, prime rib, duck, as well as tasty grilled vegetables and Boursin mashed potatoes. Desserts were equally delicious with just about anything you could imagine. Smart serving sizes helped keep you from really overdoing it. Overall it was a lovely experience, and one I would recommend to others.

Golden Steer was an absolute highlight. My mom & I got the longhorn & lobster for 2 combo, which is the absolute best way to go IMO. We chose the table side Caesar salads. Neither my mom nor I are love Caesar salads typically, but this one blew us away. It’s the best we ever had. The steak was perfectly seasoned & the lobster tail was the most decadent amazing lobster I’ve ever had. We got the whipped potatoes & the mushrooms as our sides. The longhorn with the potatoes & the mushrooms & their rich gravy was a luxurious experience. We also ordered the king crab legs, but they were watery & not as sweet as either my mom or I expected, BUT their customer service was top notch & they took care of us. We ended our meal with the table side bananas foster. Golden Steer was an experience I will treasure for a long time.

We had a fantastic experience! Can’t wait to go back!
