I really wasn't aware that this restaurant is Emeril's place until I looked it up on msn.com. In any case, I was dying to taste ribeye in every restaurant and since this place was highly touted as being one of the best in Vegas, I had to go here.
So surprise, surprise, I ordered the rib-eye. My wife ordered the filet mignon. My impression before we received our dishes was that this was an upscale place so we were expecting meats on the level of Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. I was slightly disappointed in that their rib-eye, although good, I felt was only slightly better than a Black Angus steak. I've had a much better tasting rib-eye from Smitty's in Pasadena. The filet was nice and tender so that was the bright spot during our dinner date. We also ordered a couple of glasses of cab and so it complemented our steaks very well.
The service was, as you would come to expect, excellent. If it wasn't for the rib-eye, which was lacking some flavor, I would've given it a 5-star rating.
