| - I was debating as to give this place 1 or 2 stars, and settled on 1, because not only have I experienced WAY better, but this was the worst $200 dinner I have had in Vegas yet! We went there because we were seeing Garth Brooks, so the evening was already starting off on a high note!! The bread was ok at best, and then I got to the cranberry bread which broke my tooth! Literally bitting into this piece of BREAD broke my tooth. Fortunately it didn't hurt and there was nothing that was going to keep me from that concert, so we kept pushing. The Tuna Tartar came out and it was so spicy, myy tongue was now burnt for the rest of the meal. My husband said his salad was good, but I know him and if it was good, the plate would have been wiped clean and there was a lot left.
As for the main dish, I ordered the Black Bass, given fish is my favorite thing and bass is at the top of the list... It had NO taste! I could have continued eating it, it was edible, but what was the point when there was no taste! As a side I ordered the pistachio crusted asparagus which was different and the only thing that peaked my interest enough to eat. My husband ordered the filet, he said his was "not bad" but next time he would get it "without all the salt around it". He also got the mac & cheese, which I tried and was good, but for the price of this meal, I was REALLY GOOD!!
To top the meal off I had chosen the s'mores donuts... 2 of my favorite things in the world, what could possibly be wrong with these??? Bleh! Again, no taste and while the concept is great, they failed on delivery!
My husband and I love a good steakhouse and do not mind spending the money when we walk away satisfiied... If it were up to me I would eat at Mastro's Ocean Club every night, but with all the options in this town, it can't hurt to branch out.... Well in this case it did "hurt" and a broken tooth from bread should have been an omen to stop right there! :)
On a positive note, Garth Brooks was phenominal!!
