| - I don't even know where to begin.
There is no other place like this in Vegas. This HAS IT ALL!
Cool vibe, Great atmosphere, Wonderful music and entertainment, Good service, Mouth-Watering food and Unique drinks!
The Setting - -
Went here on a Saturday night with the husband and 2 out-of-town friends. It was a first for all of us and we weren't sure what to expect.
Started off in the bar area. Small, enclosed and separate room off the main restaurant area. Little did we know there's a door that connects the 2, but it's a different door than the one you enter in from check-in.
There's a separate little alcove in the bar... so we sat in there to chat and catch up while our table was prepared. (We were a few minutes early.)
The Restaurant - -
It's like walking into another dimension ... dark like a club, but with the ambiance and setting of a lounge all set in an Alice-In-Wonderland meets Michelangelo meets New Orleans Jazz Club meets Cirque-du-Soleil feel and vibe.
Basically... it's ULTRA COOL and Fantastic!
We fell in love with it immediately.
The Drinks - -
Hand crafted and incredibly unique.
You really do need to be adventurous, and just trust them because unless you are a crazy bartender that makes all kinds of drinks... you won't recognize half the ingredients.
The Food - -
Even more reason to fall in love with this place.
Almost every dish they brought out was phenomenal.
There were only a couple that were "very good".
Most were ... "Oh, It's Gone, Let me lick the plate and Let's order another" type of dish.
The style is family or tapas style (but not Spanish).... so small plates meant to be shared.
We ordered a number of different items. The most noteworthy and exceptional were: the Steak Tartare, the Rabbit, the Pork Belly, the Seared Scallops and the Short Ribs. I've never had Steak Tartare before and now I'm a fan. This one was rich and creamy. Oh man... while writing this ... I'm re-living the bites right now.
The menu changes slightly so what's posted on-line isn't exactly the same as what we saw.
Oh! Save Room for Dessert!!!
They have a number of amazing looking desserts. One is a chocolate dessert that comes in a glass dome and looks like a plant... it's all edible. We didn't get this but the table next to us did and they really enjoyed it.
I saw S'mores on the menu and almost got that until my eyes saw Bananas Foster... and Yes, it's done tableside... Flames and All!
While it wasn't the best ever BF I've ever had. (I'm something of a BF snob.) It certainly was very rich, very sweet and very sinful. They don't flame the bananas for very long so you can definitely taste the rum. Oh Yea! Lick The Plate!
The Entertainment - -
Live music... so it was a bit loud and hard to hold a conversation but it is Fantastic.
We also saw a Tap Dancer.... he was Amazing! Tap Dancing is not a lost art... it's alive and well at RRL and it's not to be missed.
We also saw a juggler-slash-contortionish. She was pretty darn flexible and coordinated. (something I'm not) So, we were impressed and wow-ed!
Overall - -
Totally going again! Maybe next month... Too soon? Nah! :)
(PS - - Location: It's near/next to Wicked Spoon.)
