Date night on our last night in vegas!
We decided to try SW Steakhouse at the Wynn. As we went down the escalator at entrance of the restaurant, waterfall show was going on. It was so beautiful! (There is a lounge where you can watch the waterfall but you must put your name down to be seated there. It also has a one drink minimum.)
We went to the restaurant without any reservation around 7pm and hoping to get lucky. While waiting, I got a pom martini and him a jack and coke. We were seated in less than 10min! YAY.
++pom martini (3.5 stars)
I had two of these. First one was perfect. Perfect amount of sweet and alcohol. 2nd time, it was really syrupy and had to ask for ice to dilute the drink. The drink was inconsistent.
++pepper crusted chateaubriand (3.5 stars) $120
We ordered this and shared as the server suggested it serves two people. Meat was filet mignon so we got it medium. Perfectly cooked. The dish was great but it wasn't the best steak I've ever had. Also felt like the spiciness of the pepper overpowered the flavor of the steak.
The ambience was beautiful. the crowd was mostly on the older side (ie 60s 70s). also were business men and such.
After the meal, we went to sit at the lounge and had few more drinks. We watched the waterfall show 3 times (show is every 20 min) before we left. Btw, the show is different every time.
Overall, I give this restaurant 4 stars. The food was 3.5 stars but with its excellent service, show, and ambience 4 solid stars.
