| - Okay, my husband and I had such an amazing, awesome experience at this restaurant that we decided to make our meal there our "Valentines Day dinner" just one week early. When I got home, I canceled our reservations at a restaurant in Boston - there's no way it would measure up to the relaxing, lovely dinner we had at the Cathouse!
At first, I was just looking for something a little different as a precursor to "Fantasy" the topless show at the Luxor that we were going to see later that night, so I popped by Cathouse to make a reservation for Sunday at 8:30pm. The girl was super nice and I asked her what the deal was - she said the nightclub hours are very different than the restaurant hours. I assumed (because of the windows -which were filled with lingere) that the girls in the place were supposed to be all lingere all the time. I was fine with that, but actually, when we checked out the place, we found out that the girls usually wear short black dresses and boots instead.
So, we arrive a little early for our reservation and are immediately seated at a circular table with comfy velvet couches. The table cold have easily fit 5 or 6 people comfortably but having the whole table to ourselves made us feel luxurious. Every table has a chandelier over it. Loved the look of this place. It was so awesome. The wallpaper was fantastic and the walls were covered with vintage pornography from the early 1900s. - I found the whole place to be very intimate. The space was a lot smaller and believe it or not ...darker than most places in Vegas - a refreshing intimacy after a lot of large and lofty restaurants.
The food was incredible. We started out with some Pommes Frites. The french fries were a heaping portion and tasty (but honestly it got much better from there) We got the truffle macaroni and cheese (holy cow so awesome) and for our entree Russ ordered the pepper encrusted Tuna steak and I ordered the braised short rib of beef. My short rib was so flavorful, tender and absolutely mouthwatering. Russ's Tuna steak was also awesome, really fresh and delicious. We followed up with two desserts - Red Velvet Cake with Marscapone icing - they were still warm when they got to our table! And Russ's small donuts stuffed with hazelnut cream.
Our waitress was polite, attentive, and I loved being able to snuggle up to Russ and just enjoy his company. The manager stopped by our table to ask us how it was going which I thought was a nice touch.
Like people were saying, there is a girl who is putting on makeup in lingerie while you dine. She does a couple of costume changes. The waitress told her that she'd like it if the girl could do more - but you can only do so much with a certain type of entertainment license.
I think this restaurant is perfect for couples who love upscale comfort food and a stylish and unique atmosphere. Also, it's not so sexy that you couldn't bring more prudish friends along. I think it's classy and sultry and not slutty - which is refreshing. And the food was orgasmic, modern, and best of all -- fun. I will dine here again when I'm back in Vegas!
