Mavens Overview: Canal Street
Canal Street at the Orleans is an "Old School" style Vegas Steak house, that is particularly popular with locals. Prices are reasonable, and even include a salad with all entrees, something patrons particularly appreciate.
The Internet Buzz is favorable, however, keep in mind expectations of most patrons have been lowered accordingly, since the Orleans is a budget casino.
Internet Buzz: Canal Street
- Everything is old school and at the same time special. The entrée was rack of lamb - very tender and flavorful. I ordered a side of asparagus which was broiled and tangy and wonderful. On another visit I've had melt-in-your-mouth filet mignon. I finished up with a cappuccino served with sticks of rock sugar.
- The decor is very old fashioned.. then again, the entire hotel can use a little upgrading. we were greeted by a very friendly woman who's clothing and age matched the decor..
- The dinner salad with the house raspberry vinaigrette dressing was quite good and was included with the price of the entree. That's a nice change of pace considering most high end steak houses don't include the salad and you have to pay extra if you want one.
- I had the filet mignon and ordered it medium. It was absolutely awesome! Definitely one of the best steaks I have ever had. It was cooked perfectly, was very tender with absolutely no fat or gristle at all. They gave me a steak knife, but honestly I probably could have cut it with a butter knife.
- This place is for old people with a lot of time on their hands. I waited so long for my food that I ended up eating all the bread in the bread basket three times Looking around, it was like feeding time at the old age home. I can't fault them for anything because this is what the place is all about. The food was good and well done. I'm picky and the food was good.
- Canal Street is the type of place you would expect to run you $200 for a couple and yet you can easily walk away without going over $60.
- This place was recommended by a local friend for a nice steak house for locals. He was so right on. This place is a little old school with steaks, seafood and sides that do not require one take out a mortgage to cover the check. Must be me (or the economy), but I am getting tired of paying $60 for an ala carte steak in Vegas. Anyway, the filet was stellar.
