First, I would like to address the 1 star reviews you see. Notice how everyone in the review is complaining about 1 of 3 things:
1. "It's old" yes! It's old!! The f-ing rat pack and many other old,glamorous people ate here. It's old Vegas. It has history. Grow the F up. Not everything is going to be new and be laced with "truffle oil" or Panko bread crumbed or be a fancy burger.
2. It's expensive-get your money up. Seriously. It's about an experience. If you don't want an experience and you want to tell all your friends about how you ate at "that guy on TV"s restaurant, then do so elsewhere! Stay on the strip. Be typical.
3. It has a dress code- sorry you can't wear your flip flops, board shorts, trucker hat, or whatever other crap our "lazy ass dressed down" society wears everywhere else. Again, it's time to grow the F up. Other people don't care that you can pay for the food. They don't want to sit next to you and see your crusty feet or stare at your disheveled mop.
I am not old. I am not rich. I was raised to enjoy places like this and not take them for granted.
That being said, I liked it.
I like that they give the lady the menu without prices. I like that they bring you a pickle plate with crackers. I like that they cleanse your palette for the meal with a lemon sorbet w/ some Dom poured over. I like finger bowls after a meal. I like having my water cup filled after every sip. I like my food brought out to me like a show. I like complimentary chocolate covered fruit and a fruit bowl. I like knowing that I could take my time with all of the above and not be rushed out the door like the herd at Outback.
We had:
2 Vodka drinks
Shared a very large crab cake
The lamb chops
The lobster
Baked potato
Creamed corn
Coffee
Michael's Banana Strawberry Cake
$355
The only thing I would do different:
Order 1 entree to share(they are large) and skip dessert(unless u can share w/ like 4 other people). They are good but huge and the complimentary fruits and petite four at the end are perfect.
So ignore the trendies w/ the 1 star reviews. Go experience it at least once for yourself.
