| - Met up with a couple of friends to grab a quick dinner. Just a note - we looked on the Caesar's website in detail at all of their restaurants to find one that wasn't too overpriced since we had a big weekend of eating at nice places in front of us. I didn't even know Gordon Ramsay had a place in Caesar's, but to my delight, there it was on the list and it had two $$ in front of it, noting it as an average check price of $20 per person. This was not the case. An average cost for an entree appears to be about $28.
So I met up with my friends and ordered a dirty martini, which came out perfect. We ordered our food and started chatting. We noticed that 30 minutes had gone by and the waiter had not come back and our food had not arrived. We waved him down and he said he would go check on it. 10 minutes later the food finally came out. I had ordered the duck confit salad from the appetizer section. The portion was almost an entree portion, but half the price! It was delicious and perfectly cooked. I finished the entire plate and was just full enough. One of my friends ordered the roasted chicken, which looked like a tiny whole roasted chicken. I didn't try any of it but he said it was great. My other friend ordered the flank steak medium, and it came out medium rare. She also said it was quite delicious. We ordered the fingerling potatoes as a side, and those were BOMBtastic. To my surprise, the side of brussel sprouts were okay (i HATE brussel sprouts).
The ambiance was classy, but not stuffy. I liked it a lot. It was fun and just the right amount of loud. The service was fine, other than the food taking forever, but maybe that's just because it's so new they are still trying to work out all the kinks. It's also a huge plus my duck confit was only $16 and was such a big portion. I'd go here again and try the fish and chips. I saw a couple of waiters carrying that by for another table and my mouth began to water. They looked phenomenal!
