The Palo Alto import is popular with both singles and the power-lunch crowd. Glassed-off brewing kettles are the design centerpiece as well as the main attraction at the square center bar, which offers specialty brews such as Marzen and Hefeweizen. The menu offers up some fairly creative appetizers, including tamarind-marinated chicken skewers and crispy artichoke hearts tossed with Parmesan. Entrées include blackened mahimahi sandwich, wood-oven pizzas, pan-seared ahi tuna, and old-fashioned meatloaf with brown gravy.

Gordon Biersch is one of the few restaurant chains where you can eat every week, and still leave shaking your head in amazement as to how good the food is.
Yesterday for lunch we had both the Chopped Salad and Cobb Salad. As per usual, both were fresh, crisp, and served with a smile. The salads are quite large, with my two lady guests splitting the Cobb (but still unable to finish it).
Their sandwiches and burgers are also superb, served with garlic fries (the smell of which will win you over right when you walk in). The blackened Ahi tuna sandwich is a must try.
As for me, I generally have the excellent Southwest Chicken Sandwich (Pepper Jack Cheese, Roasted Red Peppers, with Chipotle Mayonnaise on a Baguette). Yesterday was no exception. Interestingly enough, I don't really care for their beer, even though I am a big beer fan.

My wife and I met a friend for dinner and went off the strip for this meal. He suggested we eat here and it was great. Reasonably priced, great food and great beer from their microbrewery. It was better than typical brew pub food. Great service too! I'd definitely go back next time we are in Las Vegas.
