| - I've been meaning to come to SW Steakhouse for quite sometime now and after a failed attempt to get a reservation back in April, I was determined to get one the next Vegas round.
We arrived a little past our reservation but we were promptly seated in the outdoor seating area next to the waterfall, which I might add was very beautiful and totally complimented the dining experience. They put on little shows for you as soon as the sun sets, they also have lights reflecting onto the water that change in color. So pretty! =)
APPETIZER
SAUTEED FOIE GRAS w/ Grilled Pineapple, Brioche Toast and Blackberry Jam- Oh what a dish this was, the foie gras was perfectly seared (not burned, like the last foie gras I had). The pineapple added a nice contrast to the foie gras, at first I wasn't too sure it'd be a good combination BUT it was. Also the blackberry jam complimented the foie gras very well.
I'M GOING TO NEED MORE WATER
42OZ CHILI RUBBED DOUBLE RIBEYE- Like Cherylynn N. mentioned, this dish was featured on Food Networks "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" so we had fairly high hopes for this dish. SO DISAPPOINTING, the chili rub was way too overpowering, too salty, too much seasoning, IT WAS JUST TOO MUCH and too much of something can't always be good. I found myself having to drink a couple of glasses of water because the rub was too overbearing and took away from the steaks flavor! I'm shocked that this would be on "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" because this didn't come anywhere close to being the best thing I ever ate. Oh, might I add that our steak was OVERCOOKED!!
SIDELINERS
BLACK TRUFFLE CREAMED CORN, PARMESAN CREAMED SPINACH, MAC 'N CHEESE, FINGERLING POTATOES w/ Green Beans & Bacon- Our of all the sides, I thought the mac n' cheese was the best. Why? Because I like mac n' cheese, that good enough for ya? =X
THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM FOR DESSERT
FUNNEL CAKE & STRAWBERRIES w/ Anglaise, Salty Caramel and Fudge Sauce- THANK GOD FOR DESSERTS! This was the best out of all the dishes we had. The funnel cake was soft and warm and when dipped in any of the 3 dipping sauces was like taking a bite of heaven.
HI, YES WE'RE STILL HERE! (SERVICE)
So, our waitress was MIA more than half the time. I don't remember her checking on us at all but I watched her multiple times go to tables where older customers were seated and checked up on them. The only times we saw her was when we placed our orders, when our friend had to complain about his steak because it was WAY OVERCOOKED and when she handed us the bill. A restaurant in the Wynn lacks service in their restaurants, I'm shocked.
OVERCOOKED
Ah, now you must be wondering about the overcooked steak. If not, YOU BETTER START TO WONDER!! =X jk. All joking aside, our friend had to send his steak back because his steak was cooked well-done instead of medium-rare. How in God's name does a steakhouse overcook a steak? How can you call yourself a steakhouse if you can't properly cook a steak, I don't understand!
Our waitress then asked our party if everyone's steak was cooked to their liking but she said it in a tone, a tone like "UGH F%^&, ANYONE ELSE??" *flips the bird* WHATEVER LADY.
CONCLUSION
Never coming back here, I'm so disappointed. The restaurant is a beautiful one but beauty can't mask what's truly inside and what's truly inside, an MIA waitress and overcooked steaks. The foie gras, dessert and enchanting waterfall could not save this review from being 2 stars because I didn't come here for either one of those things. I came here for a good steak and that's NOT what I got, all I got was a bag full of disappointment.
