Coconut’s

You’ve just spent a lot of time coaxing a baby leopard to pose for you at Siegfried and Roy’s Secret Garden wild animal enclave. He doesn’t quite cooperate — but you have three dozen digital photos you need to edit before getting to the volcano. Well, here’s a place to park yourself and get a nice cup of homemade ice cream to boot.
Like what you’d expect in a Las Vegas ice cream parlor, they overdid the color in here, but it is spacious, certainly enough room for those rubber baby buggy bumpers to avoid the shins of the rest of us. I thought the portions were generous. I got a single scoop of — what else — coconut — for about $ 4.50 and really got a double scoop in the bargain. I think that had less to do with generosity than it did to the lack of business.
BTW, watch out for aggressive, overweight tourists from the South… an ugly bunch (in stretch pants, no less) when you stand between them and the dairy!
ICE CREAM — 3 stars… generous portions and not bad
AMBIANCE — 3 stars… kinda dark in here — even with all the color splashed all over the place
SERVICE — 3.5 stars… scooped with authority
TOTAL — 3 stars… a respite between the leopards and the volcano… only in Vegas
