Delight in Delicious Dining
All that casino action is sure to bring on the urge for some great dining, and the Blue Chip has all your bases covered! These three tasty options will satisfy any craving and any mood.
William B’s Steakhouse – Think succulent steak, perfectly prepared, and the ultimate wine pairing to go with it. You’ve definitely hit the jackpot for fine dining at this elegant restaurant. The food menu is mouthwatering with several steak options, including the popular filet three ways, plus cedar-planked salmon, ribs, sage pork, and lobster. The restaurant boasts an extensive list of more than 100 wines, and has received Wine Spectator magazine’s Award of Excellence for 2020, the fifth year in a row William B’s has earned that honor. Cheers!
The Game – Everything spells sports, fun, and great food at this rocking Blue Chip eatery. Huge TV screens lining the walls show games, stats, and scores. Gourmet burgers, Chicago dogs, great pizza, and delicious wings dressed with one of 11 sauces, from Atomic Buffalo to Asian, star on the menu. There’s always a specialty burger of the month (September features the bison burger with onion straws and blueberry mustard aioli). The 34 beers on tap give diners plenty of choices – from craft brews such as fruit-infused Voodoo Ranger IPA, fizzy Nap In the Hammock, and crisp lager Pulaski Pils to well-known brands such as Samuel Adams, Guinness, and Coors.
Nelson’s Deli – Ah, the delights of a quick bite! You’ll find it at this great deli, whatever the time of day. Breakfast pleasures include yummy sandwiches, donuts, and pastries. Burgers, sandwiches, salads, pizza, and nachos are just a few of the options for later in the day. Save room for dessert – Nelson’s serves cakes, bars, and brownies, plus Valpo Velvet ice cream, Indiana’s home state favorite.
