| - This is my second time dining at Lakeside. This time I came with my family when we were in Las Vegas celebrating my father's 60th birthday. I called ahead to reserve a table outside for 5 (my parents & 2 sisters). Last time I was here with my fiance we were seated outside and loved the view of the beautiful water and little shows that go on.
We ordered a nice bottle of white wine and my father had beer. We ordered:
MANHATTAN SEAFOOD CHOWDER (Medley of Seafood, Smoked Sausage) $16
FRIED CALAMARI Ancho Chile Aioli, Chimichurri, Lemon $18
CHOPPED VEGETABLE SALAD Cherry Tomatoes, Garbanzo Beans, Bacon, Blue Cheese, Avocado, Zinfandel Vinaigrette $16 (note: I ordered the vegan version of this ---they have a full vegas menu, it was $2 less and had no bacon or blue cheese)
ATLANTIC SEA SCALLOPS Celery Root Puree, Apple Chutney, Vadouvan Sauce $38
ROASTED JUMBO SHRIMP Confit Peppers, Capers, Melted Tomatoes $35
SAUTÉED MUSHROOMS $11
LOBSTER RISOTTO Bahamian Lobster Tail, Leeks and Fine Herbs $52
So since I am a vegetarian, the comments are from my family regarding the seafood. The calamari was excellent.
Risotto dish was quite dry, my mother regrets not telling them at the time.
Scallops and jumbo shrimp was really tasty.
Overall, if you're a seafood fan this is the place to go for a gorgeous view and tasty seafood.
They even came by with the poor little lobsters on a tray to show which ones they can kill for you. LOL I felt so bad!
Great service too!
