| - About a month ago, we went to the Spazmatic's at South Point and ended up winning a $100 certificate to the Silverado Steakhouse. Being that the wifey is a steak fanatic, she was pretty excited, but for whatever reason, it ended up taking us until the very last day that the certificate was good to come here. Oops.
The Silverado Steakhouse is also located in the South Point and sits right next door to Don Vito's. Since this is in a casino, you may way to make reservations, which we did and ended up getting sat in a nice, comfy booth off in the back. The restaurant itself is pretty good size, it's dimly lit and definitely has a fine dining feel to it.
Even though it is a steakhouse, there's a lot more on the menu then just steaks. In fact, there's only 4 cuts on the menu and a filet trio in the entrees section. There's a quite a few seafood options and although each meal is served with a salad and your choice of potato, the rest of the sides are a la carte and priced at $7 each. For the kiddos, they offer a chicken fingers plate for $13.95, which isn't on the menu. Plan to spend at least $30 a person though. With drinks and a dessert, our bill came out to just over $100 for 2 adults and a child.
Now don't get me wrong, I love a good steak...but I'm not a huge steak eater and usually have to be in the mood to order one. Thankfully, I was feeling one that night and ended up going with the 8oz filet and chose it "Oscar Style" which includes a king crab leg and asparagus topped with béarnaise sauce. For the price ($45 total), I wasn't wildly impressed. The steak was cooked unevenly and although it was an extremely juicy, tender steak, there was little flavor. Even just a touch of salt and pepper would have probably made a world of difference. The crab was decent and I liked that it comes pre-shelled but they drenched it in the béarnaise sauce. Everything else on the plate was just ok. The asparagus were undercooked and the mashed potatoes were pretty bland. We also shared a peach cobbler which was only $7, but was lacking in flavor and came out cold inside it's little cast-iron skillet.
If it weren't for the service, this would probably be a 2 star review. The service was pretty much perfect and exactly what you'd expect for a place like this. Our drinks stayed full the entire night, the whole staff was extremely friendly and our waiter was great. All in all, I'm glad we got the change to eat here, but I'm sure we won't be back anytime soon.
