I recently tried Vargas after passing it several times between my hotel and the convention center. After getting out of the conference late one night, I stopped in here with my mom. At first I was worried about being underdressed (in just a top and jeans) but once I saw how the person at the front desk was dressed, I felt fine. I ordered the lobster and crab patties ($17) and garlic mashed potatoes ($6) that were fluffy and the perfect amount of garlic. Another night, I ordered six seared scallops ($35) and for dessert shared a chocolate lava cake. All the food was delicious, if a little overpriced. Definitely order a side or appetizer if you order the seared scallops. Even though the scallops were delicious it just wasn't enough food for dinner. Overall, I like the atmosphere and location.
