| - I never knew this place was even a restaurant until I saw it on yelp. I actually thought it was a freaking jewelry pawn shop ... *facePalmNutz.
Anyway, while the prices are Vegas Strip premium here, a lot of their dishes were on point.
Roasted Bone Marrow - This dish was fantastic. The bone marrow was cooked to perfection as well as the carmelized onions. I kid you not though, the place that sets this place apart was the bread. Something about that buttery garlicy-ness sets it off.
French Onion soup dumplings - While the cheese they used was really good, I didn't care too much for this dish. I was expecting soupy dumplings...like a french onion soup xiaLongBao. All you get is a dumpling filled with carmelized onions.
Grilled cheese , bacon, and tomato soup dumplings - This was more my style. There was actual soup this this. Too bad they don't serve this by the bowl.
Thai style deep fried shrimp - Great dish. The shrimp was good quality and the slaw was perfect.
Roasted Mushroom Pizzetta - Ordered this by somehow it came with a bunch of pepperoni and meat. I wonder if this was intentional? This dish was okay. Never thought I'd say this but there was actually too much meat too the point where it made the pizza too salty.
Brussel Sprouts - They could have done a better job carmelizing the outside of the brussel sprouts but this dish was solid. It was a bit soggy because it soaked up too much oil.
Short rib mac and cheese - I liked how the short rib flavor got into the guts of the cheese flavor.
Basil Pesto ravioli with Rock shrimp - I wasn't a fan of this dish as it was bland. It had the least impact in terms of flavor.
Jerk Spiced chicken - While the flavor was good, the chicken came out a bit dry. Tear.
Scallops - Good quality scallops. Can't go wrong here.
Devils food layer cake - Imagine the richest and sweetest chocolate cake of all time. It was nice that the did have the milk ice cream to "lighten" the load. If they eased up on the sugar, I would have enjoyed this dessert much more.
Drinks: I had the Electric Avenue which is pretty much their own version of a manhattan. While it isn't cheap at $17, it was really good. Compare this to the Chandelier bar outside the restaurant that serves a sh*tty old fashioned for $17. It's expensive, but you get more value here. They also have pitchers of Sangria, but that'll set you back $80. Did I mention this place isn't cheap?
Service was good and for the most part, the food was tasty. If you have a large party, this place is great because you can order it "tapas" style. For example, you can add one scallop to the scallop dish. The waiter/waitress will help you along the way.
4 stars!
