Oh man, if you like fondue you have to go!! Don't be afraid to ask the waiter what they recommend either. We had the most wonderful cheese fondue that wasn't on the menu. Oh my god I'm stilling thinking about it and want more!
I was going to do a rate the swank on it, but my descriptive writing skills have been too busy trying to whip my extended family into shape.

Have you ever had the sweet potato fries? A friend introduced us to that one and they were surprisingly delicious! The onion rings are the best though.

Ok, I thought of one that is non-chain related. The Micro Brewery place in the Colorado Belle in Laughlin, very good food.

Oh yes, Love Miceli's. Mario Lanza used to sing in the balconey there. Fabulous spinach with garlic and tossed with pasta of your choice, please

I'll add one for Maine:

Ogunquit Lobster Pound - fantastic lobster, and don't forget the warm blueberry cobbler with ice cream.

Not a big fan of sweet potatoes in general. The onion rings, though, are amazing. Oooh! And the apple cider!

Yes, same place, although I believe the "Mo Better" part was added when they tried opening a second place on Melrose, which was financed by the Wayans Bros. who were huge fans of the original. Unfortunately, the Melrose location was short lived. It just wasn't the same and was substantially more expensive. It closed, leaving only the original location on Pico (which was far better). Sadly, the original burned down a few years ago and as far as I know, there aren't any plans to replace it. Why? I do not know but it is a cryin' shame, I tell ya.
