NYE specials out of this world! Best steak in the universe.
===
So we're wandering the endless halls of Caesar's looking for a spot to chill for several hours before the countdown begins. The halls are a bustle of screaming children and many people. The host stand and its tailored dude greet you alongside the display menu and a few tables out in the mall for the noisy customers. The real restaurant is back two rooms behind the bar and is like a secret treasure room for the deserving. We were lucky!
The NYE special surf and turf themed card included jumbo stone crab claws (4), king crab legs, 3lb lobster and a "side" of 8oz filet mignon. I won't say which one I didn't order, but the steak was the best steak in the universe, the lobster was huge and meaty and the stone crab claws (those poor babies!) were phenomenal. Add to that a special price on the Tattainger reserve and it was one heck of a way to bring in the new year.
The bread basket included several varieties but my favorite was the fennel seed, roasted sesame seed and Parmesean lahvosh. Stuffed mushrooms were excellent.
The service was prompt and professional and I loved how our server kept stopping by to ask us if he could bring anything for us _right now_; very fun. The menu tells the story of the restaurant, founded in Florida, and I remember it well; this location honors the original in proper Vegas style.
