| - Dinner Party of 11 with my bestest friends celebrating the birthday of one of my bestest friends ever! In all seriousness, this was a very special night for a very special guy. My high maintenance bougie sisters were present and Hakkasan performed..respect
Service: 5/5 We started at the bar as we waited for the crew to arrive and the mixologist bartenders were on point with friendliness and their skill sets. Once seated, the head waiter and the team took care of us throughout our hour+ dining experience. We ordered family style and every 10-15 minutes we had multiple dishes coming out to enjoy. Waters and drinks were kept fresh between the food rounds and during the food rounds for the power drinkers. The flow of the food was perfect and the staff moved with a sense of urgency with friendliness.
Food: 4.5/5 The food presentation was so so pretty, but the quality and taste exceeded the expectations as well. We ordered a lot, almost too much but I'll let the pics speak for themselves and I'll just comment on my favorites below.
Hot & Sour Soup with Chicken: I can't believe I'm writing about soup, but yes it was great. The thinly shredded chicken paired with the boutique soup makes this the Hot & Sour GOAT.
Hakka Noodle: I'm a noodle guy and the mushrooms really brought this home.
Hakka Steamed Dim Sum platter: Har gau, scallop shumair, chinese chive dumpling and the black pepper duck dumpling came out looking pretty and were tasty. The duck was my fav.
Hakka Fried dim sum platter: The roasted duck pumpkin puff was my fav, duck pattern? =)
Spicy Lamb Lupin Wraps: I love lamb and these wraps were great. Lamb fans get it!
Crispy Duck Salad: Fresh salad and the duck complimenting each other hard.
Black Truffle Roast Duck:The VIP dish of the mf evening. I love just about Truffle anything, but it can be overpowering if not paired AND prepped correctly. It was awesome with the roast duck, writing about it now is bringing back good memories. Highly, highly recommended.
Value: 4/5 I understand that premium prices are coming with a premium restaurant in a premium location on the Las Vegas strip. For the service and quality of the food and drinks, Hakkasan meets my expectation.
Ambiance: 5/5 Here's one of my favorite reasons for visiting Hakkasan restaurant. The Neo-contemporary Asian influenced design is classy and exudes sex appeal. It looks like a straight movie scene from the Matrix. EDM music plays in the background. For our table, the lighting is dim with spotlights on the table to showcase the food. This keeps the dining experience very intimate and drops inhibitions as the drinks come. hehe =)
This is one of my favorite "special occasion" restaurants on the Strip. Hakkasan has their own valet service so right from the beginning until the end you're enjoying the VIP experience. The food, service and the ambiance puts together a great start for a special evening. I highly recommended it for first dates and group dining for special occasions. You leave here feeling baller af into the next venue for the evening. For us, we went next door to the club, but that's another Yelp review...enjoy!
