Here's Where It's Happenin'!
Monte Carlo Pub & Brewery
With the Super Bowl looming on the horizon, I wanted to talk about one of
the best places to eat a good meal, drink home-brewed beer and watch the
game on huge TVs - all at the same time.
I'm talking about the Monte Carlo Pub and Brewery at the Monte Carlo Resort and
Casino. The extremely large brewpub is nestled in the back of the hotel near
the shopping area. It's a pretty popular place; I have never been there
when there's not a line, especially on game days. This is probably because
there are TVs of all sizes everywhere (at the bar, in the main room),
including two huge projection screens at the very end of the room.
Besides just being a lively place to watch the big game, Monte Carlo Pub &
Brewery also has good eats and drinks. Thy even brew six types of beer
themselves! The different types are (and they are aptly names for Las
Vegas):
- High Roller Red (which is like Killian's)
- Jackpot Pale (which is like Heineken)
- Winner's Wheat (like Hefeweisen)
- Las Vegas Lites (like any light beer)
- Silver State Stout (like Guiness)
- Brewmaster Special (which varies from time to time)
These beers are priced reasonably, with 16 oz. Pilsners going for
$2.95, 23 oz. Glasses for $3.95 and pitchers for $9.50 each.
The food is your standard bar fare (they have everything from pizza
to sandwiches), with an emphasis on LARGE portions. I personally am
a big fan of the Mucho Macho Nachos, which is literally a foot
high pile of chips, cheese, beef, olives, tomatoes, sour cream,
salsa and guacamole. It really is a meal in itself.
I also liked the Burrito Gigantico, which is stuffed full of smoked
chicken. Monte Carlo Pub and Brewery' fries are also unique, as they
are topped with spicy cayenne pepper.
So, if you want to fill yourself with great-tasting homemade beer and food,
while watching the big game in style, head over to the Monte Carol Pub and
Brewery.
