| - My family had lunch here on Christmas Day (we chose it because it was one of the few well-reviewed sit down restaurants on the strip that had entrees in the $20s). I also appreciated that they did not have a fancy Christmas prix fixe and instead had the normal menu with normal prices. However, I do think its a little overpriced for the quality of food, even at lunch (pastas are $20-$25, sandwiches are $17-$22 and entrees are mostly in the upper $20s and low $30s at lunch). For those prices, I expect both great food and a great ambiance and the food left me wanting a little bit.
They start you off with a great bread basket that has three types of bread (ciabatta, foccacia and a cheese cracker) with several olive spreads (butter was also provided on request for no charge). For our meals, my husband had the burger, my father had the steak sandwich, my mother had the salmon with rice and asparagus and I had the scallops with proscuitto (I requested the proscuitto on the side because I don't eat it but my husband wanted to).
There was some confusion with the entrees. They brought out my mom's and husband's entrees first (although they incorrectly described my mom's dish as the trout, leading to some confusion) and then they brought my dad a steak frites, which was not what he ordered, so they took it back. My entree was delayed too, but for no apparent reason. Finally the brought my scallops and my dad's steak sandwich.
One of my 3 scallops had proscuitto on it, even though I had requested it on the side. I did not care very much for the scallops. They were gritty and had a stringy texture. They came with brussels sprouts which were seriously undercooked. I did like the risotto they were served over, although it was supposedly truffle and I didn't get that flavor. (I also think 3 small scallops is a fairly stingy portion but it was ok because I didn't really like it). My husband was also not too impressed with his burger, which was $17. My parents liked their food and I had some of my mom's salmon and thought it was very tasty.
Although this place is borderline worth it for lunch, it is definitely not for dinner. They accidentally gave me a dinner menu and my scallops (which were $29 at lunch) would have been $42 at dinner. No thank you! I would not want to pay Michelin star prices for poorly cooked, gritty scallops and flustered service.
