   The only problem with this place is expectations! I was in town for a volleyball tournament and wanted some decent food. I saw this place and was planning to go by myself. Some other parents from the team decided to join me and it ended up being 8 of us. Getting a table was easy as the restaurant was basically empty. The manager was nice, great playlist and cool ambiance. The server was good and for the most part did his job well. Here’s the problem though: the first thing he says is “the menu is family style”. Ok, that’s fine. As a group of acquaintances we decided to pick one thing from each category, but wait the between bread category (1/4) is NOT family style. Ok, so we’ll skip that category, after all it is “family style”, right. So we order devils eggs, server says it only comes w 4. We are all thinking, how is this family style? Fine, we get 2 and the pork belly, “that also only comes W 4”. Hmm, better give us 2 of those as well. Let’s add the Brussel sprout Caesar salad & NY Strip. At this point we are all a little concerned and confused w the menu but we roll w it. We can always order more if needed, I guess. The apps come exactly as expected: 4 deviled eggs, 4 pieces of pork belly each and the salad maybe serves 2-3. Here’s the kicker, the steak comes on a plate w sauce, no side and it’s an 8-10 oz steak WITH A SINGLE STEAK KNIFE! So my $65 dinner consists of 1 deviled egg, 1 piece of pork belly, 2 bites of salad and 1 oz of steak. Everyone at the table is joking like “well that was good, but what should we do for dinner” it was embarrassing and stupid bc at this point no one wanted to order anything else. The food was tasty I did enjoy the little bit I had, but the entire experience was overshadowed by the confusion over the menu. I paid the bill and told the server as much. He said “well we are told to say that”. I told him “do yourself a favor, stop. Your tickets will be 2-3 times as much and people will leave happy and full”. It’s still a joke

   Carson Kitchen has great service and food. Bob and Nicky were wonderful. The menu is on the heavy side and the noise level is very high

   This was one of our BEST dining experiences in quite some time! The food was just incredible - we all agree best Mac & cheese we’ve ever had! Also the service was top notch - our waitress and the manager. Even our 6 yr old said it’s the best restaurant she’s ever been to! Highly recommend!

    The tempura green beans and burger or literally to die for!! Love the food and the location, it was a Sunday night, which can make things kind of weird in a spot like that. There was just one server and when you walked in the front, it felt like there was a little disarray, I didn’t love that. I’ve been in the Vegas location and it felt more put together. But I appreciated the gentleman who appeared to be the GM stepping in to help out.
