| - My review is simply based on our overall experience and I know that not everyone enjoyed the same love. I can definitely understand how others came up with 3.5 or 4 star review.
We have been watching Bobby on the food network forever and I have been to Mesa grill in New York, but wasn't exactly blown away.
The "Vegas Experience" far exceeded our expectations.
The vibe is cool, it's very laid back and not nearly as stuffy as many of the high end restaurants in Vegas. You can walk in there wearing jeans and a t shirt (as I did b/c I left my freshly pressed collared shirt in the rental car) without a smug or dirty look from the host/hostess.
The Food:
Bread (off the hook, give me more please)
Freshly baked varieties including an amazing raisin bread, sourdough with cheddar and jalapeno and a freshly baked soft and moist corn muffin
Roasted Corn Soup
Excellent smoky, roasted corn flavors, very light and well seasoned. Excellent start to the evening
BBQ Duck Blue Corn Pancake
Lots of duck in this bad boy. Duck was very tender, well seasoned and the blue corn pancake, although a bit soggy, was a nice touch.
Fire Roasted Veal Chop
The most delicious, succulent, tender chop of veal I have EVER tasted. Topped with a spicy sauce that was truly incredible and a perfect balance of sweet, spicy and tart
New Mexican Spice Rubbed Pork Tenderloin
GF ordered this one and she asked for it well done. I know, I know, I tried to help her understand that medium or medium rare pork is not a good idea, unless you are visiting a fine dining establishment such as this one. Despite the fact that it was well done (and cooked perfectly considering the fauz pas) this dish was killer! It was tender, spicy, sweet contrast and just delicious, served with a tangy and spicy BBQ sauce that was an excellent compliment to the dish.
Coconut Cake
This cake is moist, soft, spongy and amazing! As many non coconut fans are thinking (I hate coconut) not to worry. It's the freshest combination of coconut flavor and sweetness, with an piping hot (luke warm) cup of coffee, makes for the perfect dessert. Had I not given up drinking years ago, I would have enjoyed a glass of Port with this dessert and it would have been the perfect yin to this sweet and tasty yang.
Our waiter and the entire wait staff went out of their way to make us feel at home, to make our date night/pre show experience very special.
I honestly hope that those of you reading this are treated in the same exact manner we were b/c the experience was sensational and definitely wallet friendly, considering where you are in the world of celebrity cheftastic restaurants.
