  • First time back to Binion's steak house since 2007 and I'm pretty sure the same staff is there. The waiter said he had been there for 30 years...must be a good gig. I met my friend and his wife here for dinner on Saturday night. I arrived a bit early so I had a seat at the bar and ordered a whiskey on the rocks. The bartender was prompt, courteous and knew the art of a good long pour. Upon getting up to leave for the table he topped off my nearly empty glass, gratis...very cool! The ambience is old school, dimly lit, great views since it is up on the top floor and very, very mellow. It's definitely an older crowd here mixed with some riff raff tourists. What's shocking to me is they seem to have no dress code...there were guys wearing shorts, t-shirts and a couple wearing baseball hats; at 8 PM on a Saturday night!?!?!? Come on guys, what's wrong with you! The service was decent albeit there seemed to be some confusion between the kitchen, food runners and servers...food items being delivered to the wrong tables. Now on to the food: I started with the lobster bisque (which I always do if it's on the menu). It was OK but I've had far better. It seemed like they took the bisque with whatever small amount of lobster and whipped it up in a blender; the consistency was weird. I then had the 8oz filet cooked medium and it came out perfect. The seasoning was a little on the weak side but overall the steak was fine. The plate came with steamed green beans which were OK but a little dried out. My friends wife ordered the crab cakes for her appetizer. I suggest you do not order these; they were nearly all filler and batter. For desert we shared a molten lava cake (my friends favorite) and he claims it was one of the better ones he's had. I thought it was good as well just not a lot of experience with that desert to compare. I think if they can increase the quality of their food and preparation AND enforce somewhat of a dress code this could easily be a 4 out of 5. Until then I'm giving it a very generous 3 out of 5.
