| - 3/5 Overall
3/5 Service (see the pre-fix price paragraph on why it is 3/5 stars)
3/5 Food
4/5 Ambiance- If you get the back area, you get the view of the LV Strip, which is pretty nice. It feels a bit more private in the back, but it may be reserved for large groups. (Our party was about 15)
Pre-Fix Price Paragraph: Okay, I want to start off stating I find it weird that EVERYONE pays a "prefix" menu, but not everyone get the same amount of food. For example, we would get 12 scallops for 15 guests...HMM...seems a bit unjust to me. However, there was still plenty of food to go around. For me, if I am paying a pre-fix price, I expect everyone to get the same amount, and not have to share...
I might have to say, besides the Pork Bell Bao, Lobster dish, and dessert, everything was just Meh.
Ordered: We practically almost sampled the entire menu!
1) Spicy Cucumbers - togarashi, toasted almond - 3/5 good, but pretty simple
2) Crab Deviled Eggs - smoked trout roe, crispy bonito - 2/5 eh, wasn't my favorite dish.
3) Pork Belly - hoisin, scallion, cucumber - 5/5 $7 for one bun, outrageous! Anyhow, this was my favorite dish of the night. The pork belly was SOO FATTY and well seasoned!
4) Beets - citrus, rye XO sauce 4/5 probably my favorite beet dish ever
Market Greens - tomato, gooseberry, ricotta 3/5 good, but probably wouldn't order outside of prefix
5) Hokkaido Scallops - carrot, Anson Mills grains, tasso ham, tomato - 4/5 good, but would've been nice if we had our own scallop for the prefix menu.
Steamed Whole Branzino - charred lemon, brown butter dashi, herbs 3.5/5 good, but nothing special
6) Korean Braised Short Rib - root vegetables, chilies, sesame 2.5/5 way too salty...
7) Salt & Pepper Lobster- lobster and gulf shrimp battered and fried then heavily seasoned with fried garlic, scallions, and chilies 4/5 another delicious and well prepared plate.
8) Korean Braised Short Ribs- Boneless beef short ribs slow cooked with daikon, lotus root, potatoes, and rice cakes. Topped with chilies, scallions, sesame and presented family style in a donabe with rice. 1/5 inedible ...way way way way too salty.... very sad I barely touched my bowl.
We went a bit crazy on the dessert:
1) Crack pie: 3/5
2) Birthday Cake: 4/5 I typically don't like birthday cake, but this was well made--not TOO sweet
3) Cereal Milk Soft Serve: 3.5/5 good if you're looking for something simple
4) Cinnaswirl soft serve: 3/5 Tasted like a churro--a bit too sweet for me
5) Candy Bar Pie: 3/5 I like the crack pie better if I had to pick
