| - Hubby and I spent the weekend at the JW for our staycation/babymoon. As locals, we know where the good old skool, classic Vegas steakhouses are and this is not one of them, although it tries.
The decor is beautiful. It is very elegant.
The staff was so so... The waiter was hard to understand at times and was very lax. It was like he didn't jive with the atmosphere. There was a few people near us that he spoke to as if he knew them as usuals and seemed to have a different attitude with them than with us.
The food was good, but very overpriced. For the same prices, I know of much better places to eat. My hubby had the lobster bisque and porterhouse. They were good, but I have had better for the same or lower price. The porterhouse was cooked nicely and seasoned well, the potatoes on the side were boring, the lobster bisque was rich and tasty and was even finished with brandy tableside for a quick 10 second ooo-ahhh. I had the bibb salad which did have very good dressing on it, but seemed very small. I had the stuffed shrimp for the entree. The shrimp/stuffing was delish, but the angel hair pasta was kind of gummy and soaked up the sauce. Wonder if it sat too long while the steak was cooked...
The desert was just ok. We ordered a cheesecake with the berries/sauce on the side since my hubby isn't into that part. We received cheesecake with berries/sauce on top and then a scoop of vanilla ice cream with the same topping. Not sure how 'cheesecake with berries on the side' got confused for this. Since the server was less than to be desired already, I just ate it. Being pregnant, I woofed it down and sort of didn't mind the extra dessert I guess.
The main complaint was that I was the one who set up the weekend since hubby has been busy and the vacation was more for me and I got what I wanted. When setting up the reservation they asked if we were guests or if it was a special occassion. I told them yes to both and that we were celebrating our upcoming arrival of a son. No mention of it during our dinner. No cute dessert with the congrats written in chocolate on the plate or anything. It was a dissappointment. It is our first child and my hubby is super elated when it is mentioned so I was looking forward to seeing his face when a congrats came up. Oh well.
I won't be back, but if you are staying at the JW and have the money to blow, it might be worth it to you. Carmel Room and Spedini are the only options other than a buffet or cafe with your standard food.
