| - Winner winner vegan dinner!
SO in love with this place... after hearing that Stephen Wynn is a Vegan and all his restaurants are somewhat vegan friendly, I was beyond thrilled to try this place!
Was seated immediately upon entering. Our server was very quick and took our drink orders. Came back with our drinks with generous amounts of pretzels + dipping sauce. I asked him if the pretzel had butter or if the sauce had dairy... no butter, yes dairy in the sauce. within 3 minutes he came back with a vegan version of the dipping sauce. IMPRESSIVE! Was the most flavorful thing I've tasted since going vegan... just kidding (half kidding).
Ordered:
Orecchiette pasta (Foraged Mushrooms, Asparagus, Green & Yellow Beans,
Roasted Tomatoes, Brussels Sprouts, Broccoli Rabe) - $19 This pasta was delicious! I was surprised with how present the flavors were for being made without red or alfredo sauce. Amazing! I'm a bit picky with pasta and this was just perfect! Not try at all and the perfect texture. Highly recommend!
Society Vegetable Tasting (Red & White Quinoa, Grilled Artichoke, Abalone Mushrooms,
Roasted Beets, All Things Green) - $20 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FREAKIN' AMAZING! Hands down the BEST roasted beets I've ever had in my life. It literally melted in my mouth. The green consisted of asparagus and green beans which was also very good. I kid you not, the quinoa was life changing. I pride myself in making the best quinoa, but this place takes the gold medal.... I still get silver. Everyone at my table seemed to enjoy it as well :) Vegan or not, I highly recommend this dish. It would be great as an appetizer to share.
Prices are reasonable for the quality of food you get. Presentation is beautiful and service is just remarkable. I can't wait to try the other restaurants at Encore and the Wynn!
