| - Wanted to grab a tasty dinner in Vegas, but not pay $150+ for all the celeb restaurants on the strip. I saw Rosemary's on Yelp and Chowhound and decided to check it out. Thanks to Mike C for the heads up on the restaurant.com certificate which I also used. Food roundup:
Appetizer of BBQ shrimp: Nice and plump perfectly seared shrimp with bbq sauce on top. It also comes with some creamy blue cheese coleslaw, very funkalicious. Whole dish kinda creamy and rich, could've used some citrus to brighten it up. Still tasty.
Entrees of seared scallops and salmon: Both of these were cooked beautifully and tasty. Parsnip puree with scallops a bit lukewarm, but loved the fried thin parsnip garnish. Sauces also were nice with these dishes.
Dessert of bread pudding: I don't remember exactly what it consisted of, but it was warm and tasty with some nice ice cream.
Lowdown: Great random place (strip mall) for some well-executed, straightforward, delicious food. Nothing is going to be out there, completely new, or innovative...just tasty. There's a lot of restaurants at this price level who try to do the same type of thing, but fail, Rosemary's does it right. Also, they have awesome service: asking for any food allergies, folding your napkin when you go to the restroom, just anticipating your every need and exceeding expectations. I see why locals and tourist alike come here, you're treated like royalty. I was taken a bit aback, but it's their thing. If you've got a car, nice place to go. They do a 3 course (any combo of app and/or entree and/or dessert) for $55 for dinner.
