This US-themed restaurant does a pretty good job with its American-style fare. It's in an…read moreinteresting location on the edge of an industrial complex not far from Pratteln Station. There's not much else there that's walk-off-the-street commercial. The decor goes a bit overboard but not too much so. It still has a certain appeal. The interesting part to me is that they call themselves the Kentucky Saloon and Steakhouse, but it appeared from the environs and the menu they were going for more of a Southwest or Old West theme. But those are details. That does not take away from the fact that the atmosphere was pleasant and my experience was quite nice. It starts with the personnel and the wait staff working at the time of my visit were terrific. They were friendly and attentive. I was seated right away and there were no gaps in service. The menu featured some interesting American-style choices, with steak options being the most prominent. I started with the pumpkin soup which was rich and hearty. Bread came with this to make it the perfect opener. I generally go away from red meat most of the time and they did have a few chicken and fish items. I chose the Dragon Fire Chicken. It was served with a generous covering of barbecue sauce on a small bed of beans. Accompanied by vegetables and a baked potato, it was a very filling meal. The Malbec provided a nice complement and the finishing coffee was reasonably good. The prices were expensive but that's more to do with the fact that it was Switzerland. My final bill with a small (10%) tip was 62 CHF (included starter, main, 330-mL water, 1-dL wine and coffee). Given the fact that I find Swiss restaurants to be nearly twice as expensive as comparable US restaurants, the cost was about right in my estimation. I was generally pleased with my visit to this interesting establishment. Given the fact that it's within walking distance of my preferred hotel when I'm in Basel, I'm likely to try it again.

The menu has pictures of how you want it, and I orginally ordered as "English" which was a step below "medium" as to the inside. When it came, it looked amazing, but when I cut into the end, it became clear that the steak was raw, with a barely warm external sear. Inside was raw, as in cold with the iron taste you get with raw meat. I asked them to redo the steak, and off it went and came back with a slightly higher temp on the outside, but exactly the same on the inside. As in no change. Game over. I cut the steak into 4 pieces, and laid them on my plate so that when the wait staff would come back, they would see exactly how raw things were. The waitress came, looked that I had not eaten the steak, and gave me a weird look when I said "I was finished". Off my dinner went, and as far as I was concerned, it was going to be consumed by the little dogs that roamed about as you eat. Imagine my surprise when the steak came back AGAIN, as if to try it one more time. Nope. Game over. Imagine my surprise when they took it away finally (to the dogs or garbage), and with a shrug, still made me pay for the $34EU for the nasty steak. Not even a discussion about taking it off our bill. I can't recommend the place. We were there when they opened, around 5pm, on a Tuesday, with no one else in the restaurant when we ordered.

In quest of a replacement place to eat, we found this to be the only thing open other than our hotel (Courtyard Marriott) and a kabob joint that we opted to skip on. I had some sort of pasta with chicken breast. The chicken was pretty good but the pasta was quite boring. The sauce tasted like tomato sauce poured from a can. Maybe this is normal in Europe for italian food, but my American pallet was disappointed. I rather would have tried the döner place down the street and saved some money along the way.
