I don't think this place was all that memorable. The Caesar's salad was good. The bread was good. The short ribs were decent. The dessert, a chocolate and peanut butter layer cake, was decent also. When they figured out that I was not going to order an expensive bottle of wine, they did not treat me the same, though. I know the economy sucks right now, and I know that they probably have a ton of expensive bottles sitting in their cellar with little hope of being ordered anytime soon. I did not appreciate the dismissive attitude when I said I was probably going to order a glass or a half bottle. My wife wanted seafood and I wanted the short ribs, so there weren't going to be too many reasonably priced bottles that were going to work for both of us. They need to get over it when that happens.
Maybe there are better restaurants in Michael Mina's portfolio, but this one should never be a first option in Vegas. There are plenty of places to go to before trying this one.
