9 ай бұрынIn this video I'm going back to downtown Las Vegas on the Fremont Street experience where Bacon Nation is stationed at The D Hotel and Casino. This is a restaurant that specializes in bacon themed dishes and I've never eaten here before so I'm looking forward to sharing the meal with you!
Every restaurant is a buffet if you're willing to pay

Sausage Both are tasty 😋

Depends on the sausage. If it’s like your standard patty, bacon always. But some places have goooooood sausage and don’t overcook it 👌

Oh Shin, you really should have sent the Biscuits & Gravy back….since that oily, separated gravy truly is unacceptable! I hate to send back food, but sometimes one really should. You could have switched it for another entree.

To be honest, I haven't had anything that was truly disgusting in my videos so far so it's not a stretch for me to stay relatively positive. Everything I've had is edible to me, though that's probably more because I'm not a picky eater and I really do just eat everything lol. Thanks for watching!

Kind of ironic that most of the bacon food items were just ok while the non bacon items were delicious in a restaurant called “Bacon Nation” . But seriously $17 for 3 slices of bacon is ridiculous. I remember ordering bacon with my breakfast at a restaurant and it said it came with 2 slices of bacon. But when my breakfast arrived, there was only one slice of bacon that was cut it in two. Point being…bacon needs to be on the stock exchange as a commodity now. Ha Ha!

@7dancingmonkeys 8 ай бұрын
I've been here 3 times to give it a fair chance over the past year since it opened last fall. While the food is okay (not great), the service was disgustingly bad twice. Like being directed to a table and waiting 15 minutes for any service whatsoever. This happened once at the bar too. There are too many other options downtown.
@VegaswithShin 8 ай бұрын
Oof, now that's unfortunate. My service levels were just fine so I didn't really have any complaints there. But there are a lot of really great options downtown. I'd eat at Bacon Nation if I was already staying at the D and was feeling lazy about going out to get some food. Thanks for watching!
