Grand Cafe

UPDATE: Added pictures to my original review. My family and I have been to this restaurant at least 20 times now; not because we're habitual gamblers and have nothing to do in life or can't find anywhere else to eat...but to enjoy the good food they serve here. I mean, don't get me wrong, we do enjoy coming to Santa Fe Station from time to time to donate our money to the machines, but that's a topic of discussion for another day/time. Taking a step back into history, we remember visiting here when the restaurant was called Grand Cafe; however, ever since its rebranding back in early 2021, everything has gotten remarkably better with respect to food and service. Currently, The Brass Fork offers cutting edge menu selections which focuses on key entrees, versus having a menu with an enormous selection that only provides sub-standard quality - needless to say, I'm not a fan of those restaurants that provide a large novel (menu) that is overwhelming when trying to decide what to eat. Also, I'm not sure what happened, but even the service became so much more efficient, to include the servers becoming more friendlier, professional, and more attentive. Regardless, whatever the case or reason, we appreciate the staff working here. I think we've visited this restaurant so many times to which I think we've had each server at least twice by now. As far as the food goes, I won't list all the food we've experienced on the menu because it's safe to say we've tried ~78% of the menu items. But I will highlight my family's favorite items: Hot Wings (yes, I would put that against a lot of wing restaurants in the LV valley), Seafood Chowder in the Sourdough Boule, Mediterranean Chicken Pita, Grilled Salmon, Steak and Fried Shrimp (I'm not sure if they still offer Fried Shrimp - I know you can add Grilled Shrimp), Chicken Parmesan, Turkey Dinner, and I will go on saying majority of the breakfast menu items. Also, I have noticed a slight decline in quality to the Prime Rib because the size doesn't seem to match up to the actual weight as advertised (it seems to be getting smaller and smaller, with more fat in the cut throughout the months of eating here). Now, I don't bring a portable weight scale with me to weigh the Prime Rib as validation, but it just seem like it - the quality overall though is still good. The service overall is outstanding - from the time you're greeting up front from the host/hostess(es), all the way to the end with the cashiers. If you're having a rough night on the casino floor because of the stubborn and mean slot/poker machines, then take a break and go experience some good food and friendly staff. Also, if you've been playing for a while and spending a lot of your hard-earned money, then talk to a casino host to see if you could get a meal comp at this restaurant. Definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone; whether you're a local or visiting from your homeland.

We were attending a movie and decided to try out this restaurant as we’ve been to this same named business at other locations around the valley. We ordered the Loaded Nachos, Classic Burger and Panini Grill Cheese Sandwich and everything was delicious. Service was great and our waitress was extremely friendly.

First time here and was thoroughly impressed by the service. The staff handled a very large party very smoothly & graciously. This was the first time in any local restaurant that I saw the manager actively on the floor helping servers and guests. As a former service industry worker I was highly impressed. Food was very large portions!

Solid 4.5. Went earlier in the day so it was pretty peaceful. We usually eat at the Brass Fork on Sahara Ave and were happy to realize that they had another location close to home. Salads and soups are really good, I tried something different this time and had mixed feelings about it; short ribs and pasta, maybe a different carb to pair it with? Overall will definitely come back for great local food, decent pricing, good friendly service at a place close to home. (Plus I didn’t feel sick afterwards)

I had the chicken fried steak and eggs for breakfast. It was made with a real strip steak: delicious! It comes with three eggs. The eggs whites were a little runny for my "over medium" order, but still good. I opted for the home fries, which were in essence whole new potatoes. It comes with your choice of bread, as you would expect. I chose rye. The breakfast was so filling, I didn't eat the rest of the day :)
