House of Blues

House of Blues Restaurant Review:

About the restaurant: House of Blues’ music menu is legendary, complemented by the restaurant’s down-home Southern dining experience and the two big TV screens over the bar.

Food & Drinks: The accent is on home-style dishes such as the bacon and avocado eggs Benedict for breakfast, and lunch and dinner appetizers of pan-seared voodoo shrimp with Dixie beer reduction and jalapeño cornbread, and jambalaya with marinated chicken, white rice, andouille sausage, sweet peppers and roasted green onion in a spicy traditional jambalaya sauce. We also like the lobster mac ‘n’ cheese, with poached lobster meat in a creamy cheese sauce topped with crunchy panko breadcrumbs, and the St. Louis slow-cooked rack of ribs rubbed with adobo spice and served with baked beans and house-made coleslaw. HOB Crossroads desserts feature unique touches, such as the white chocolate banana bread pudding finished with a bourbon-caramel sauce. There’s entertainment nightly, from acoustic performances to “rockstar karaoke” with a live band. The Sunday Gospel brunch (select dates only) in the adjacent theater is among the Strip’s hottest tickets.
