Satisfaction in offing for lobster bisque fans

No doubt about it, Taste of the Town readers love their lobster bisque. I received more responses to a query from Mitchell Moss than for anything in recent memory.

Dorothy Bailey recommended Waverly's Steak House at the Cannery, 2121 E. Craig Road, North Las Vegas; Steve Brady recommended the bisque served on Thursdays in the Cannery Row Buffet at the Cannery; Libby Casolari, Salvatore's at the Suncoast, 9090 Alta Drive; Jill Houska, SC Prime Steakhouse, also at the Suncoast; Kathy Boland, the Carmel Room at the Rampart Casino, 221 N. Rampart Blvd.; Boland and Dale Gribel suggested Brio Tuscan Grill at Tivoli Village, 302 S. Rampart Blvd., and Town Square, 6605 Las Vegas Blvd. South; Gribel also recommended Landry's Seafood at 2610 W. Sahara Ave. and the Chart House at the Golden Nugget, 129 Fremont St.

In addition, Helene Campton, McCormick & Schmick's, 335 Hughes Center Drive, and Symphony's Restaurant at the Pahrump Valley Winery at 3810 Winery Road in Pahrump; Valerie Weinberg and Rudy Lehr, The Palm at the Forum Shops at Caesars, 3500 Las Vegas Blvd. South; Weinberg and Laurie Brenner, Sammy's Woodfired Pizza, which has five locations in the valley; Lehr also recommended Emeril's New Orleans Fish House at the MGM Grand, 3799 Las Vegas Blvd. South; Rich and Margie Phegley, the Hacienda Steakhouse at the Hacienda on U.S. 93 by Boulder City; Christine Merriam, Aquaknox at The Venetian, 3355 Las Vegas Blvd. South, and on the weekend seafood buffet at M Resort, 12300 Las Vegas Blvd. South, Henderson.

Also, Penny Bonanno suggested Red Lobster, which has three restaurants in the valley; Randy Leonard, Top of Binion's Steakhouse at Binion's Gamblin' Hall, 128 Fremont St.; Mark Pruter Sr. likes the one served on Thursdays and Saturdays at Montana Meat Co. at 6371 Centennial Center Blvd.; Mary Lou Villalovos recommended Silverado Steak House at South Point, 9777 Las Vegas Blvd. South, and Sonoma Cellar at Sunset Station, 1301 W. Sunset Road in Henderson; and Nicole Frye recommended Gordon Biersch, which is at 3987 Paradise Road and 750 S. Rampart Blvd.

And, since Moss also asked for retail recommendations: Penny Reese, Dolores Sawyer and Merriam recommended Costco; Georgette Greene likes the one she has ordered from Omaha Steaks, www.OmahaSteaks.com (800-960-8400), which also has a store at 2192 N. Rainbow Blvd.; Bonanno recommended Target.

Here are more reader requests.

And Tom Conroy: an Empire kosher turkey.
