| - Steak... yes please!!
So my boyfriend and I went here this weekend as part of our weekend in Vegas celebrating our 6 month anniversary. Read the good reviews and we were also staying at this hotel along with a $50 dining credit from MyVegas made this an easy choice to choose as our first fine dining Las Vegas experience. I made reservations online, requesting a booth and stating it was our anniversary. This restaurant is open to the casino floor, but surprisingly, inside the restaurant, you do not hear all the casino noise. Anyways, so we checked in and were seated right away... in a corner with a TINY table with neighbors in the connecting seats... I was NOT happy with that as I had requested a booth ahead of time. I asked the waitress if there was a booth instead as I had already asked for a booth with my reservation... she was nice and moved us to a booth with a LARGE table! Honeslty, for a high end steak house, I think the small tables they have are not practical! They are so small that you will be lucky if you can fit your steak on the table. Also, those tables were not stable and shaky... I'm glad our waitress was nice enough to move us to a booth.
Anyways, so after being moved into the booth, we were both much happier! There was actually room for my clutch, our drinks and food. Despite the table mishaps, the service was great. They were very attentive and our water cups were never empty. For starters, we ordered the hot rocks appetizer that everyone seems to rave about. It was 6 slices of beef that you cook on these hot rocks they bring out to the table. Expensive as it was $19... but it was so good! The meat was tender and tasty and it was fun to cook it on the rocks! about 3 seconds on each side unless you want it really well cooked! We've never done that before! The marinade tasted like a vinegar marinade.
For our entree, we went for the ultimate steak for 2 for $99! A 40 ounce t-bone porterhouse cooked to perfection. As our side, we chose the mac and cheese. I personally did not think that we could finish it... but it was so good that we devoured the whole thing!! We were trying to get as much meat off the bone as possible too! They bring you the steak already cut up so it's pretty easy to eat. The mac and cheese side was a good choice!! It was creamy and not overly cheesy. The bread crumbs baked on top added a delightful crunch! I'm not too big on mac and cheese and even I was loving this mac and cheese!
They also have complimentary bread... but you have to ask for it. I saw people post pictures of bread... so I asked our waiter and he said we had to ask for it, so I did. They brought it quickly with butter. the bread was so soft and warm. We loved it with the butter. I wanted to make steak sandwiches! I was stuffed with my half of the steak... but my boyfriend wanted more because it was so good. He claimed he could eat another ultimate steak by himself... I told him there was a steak challenge, lol. I've also heard about the "ultimate steak challenge", however I never saw it advertised anywhere. We did not order dessert as I was full and I was hoping they would bring us something for our anniversary... but nothing came unfortunately. Oh well...
Conclusion, excellent steakhouse with excellent service. Minus 1 star because I had made reservations asking for a booth and instead we were seated at the smallest table possible that shared seats with others. The original waitress had no issues with moving us to a booth, so I don't know what was up with that... also, they didn't do anything to acknowledge our celebration like Andre's did... so while service was excellent, it was not "above and beyond"... so 4 stars for this place in the end. Prices here are high, but the food is excellent and comes out quickly. Even with the higher prices, I think it's worth the cost. I would definitely come here again! The steak is big and excellent!
