text: The BF did some research on CajunCreole restaurants in Vegas before we headed there again for the second time this month I was a bit skeptical when he asked me what I thought about trying the Rhythm Kitchen probably because there were only Yelp reviews and neither of gave me warm fuzzies about the food Since CreoleCajun food is the BFs favorite and we are always looking for new restaurants to try we thought we would give the place a try On we took a drive down Decatur to the Rhythm Kitchen for lunch The restaurant is a wonderful modern establishment that unfortunately sits all by itself in a deserted area When we arrived at the restaurant my first instinct was to turn around and leave The parking lot was pretty empty and it seemed like a ghost town That coupled with the fact that the place had somewhat of a foul odor I should have followed my instinct and left For starters they give you a lunch menu but beware because most if not all the prices are exactly the same as those on the dinner menu And you pay dinner prices for lunch size portions Are you kidding me Here is the scoop on what the BF and I ordered nnJambalaya Spicy but lacked that authentic Cajun seasoning and flavor It was also a bit too soupy Not bad but I have had much better nnShrimp and Catfish Po Boy Large pieces of shrimp and cornmeal battered fish Just ok Again it seemed to be lacking something A bit bland for my taste nnRed Beans and Rice Disgusting Truthfully the Popeyes Chicken across the street tastes much better nnCajun Rice Not sure why they opted to switch the andouille sausage for spicy sausage as indicated by the waiter but I did not care for this side dish Like the red beans and rice the Cajun rice had zero flavor nnSweet Tea I was really excited to see that they offered this southern delicacy However I was very disappointed How can you serve sweet tea when the tea is not sweet nnOn the upside they serve you delicious hush puppies with honey butter and they will keep them coming Just be sure to finish up before PM because they will hover over you and attempt to rush you out so they can close up shop early Bad customer service especially for a new establishment Overall however I would not recommend this place There are better places both on and off the strip
