 | 	- really surprised at how large restaurant was, deceiving from the front appearance.
have tried Tom Colicchio's Craftsteak at Mandalay Bay, so thought this would be nice
have to be fair, even though this is a steakhouse, we only went for a few appetizers and desserts.
stopped by for a quick tasting after the James Beard event at the pool that night.
started with the Hamachi, roasted peaches, and bone marrow along with a few drinks.
the Hamachi was ok, nothing spectacular, but then again, it is a pretty simple starter
the bone marrow appetizer was good, would have liked to had some bread to accompany this though, we did use some of the rosemary bread served earlier
the oven roasted peach dish was pretty disappointing, one small peach halved, which we would not have minded had it had any flavor.....better to skip that starter
we did skip to desserts right afterwards, diving into 3 different ones
don't exactly remember the picks, which again, to be fair, this is not a dessert destination, but rather a steakhouse. one of the choices did involve a bacon maple fritter I believe, which was actually probably the best item we had there that night.
we did enjoy the service, which was spot on, and the décor of the restaurant was great, so I will give them another shot and try their steaks next time around
just a little disappointed in this visit
