| - I can honestly say this was the best meal of my life.
My BF and I started at the bar and we had done well that day at the tables, so we ordered a bottle of champagne. The bartender was awesome, so friendly, and helped us pick out just the right choice. Once the table was ready, they expertly handled the transfer of the champagne to the table, so it was just waiting for us - on ice - when we got there.
We had 2 waiters who were both awesome, and we were sitting next to David Spade, which kind of added to the snob appeal...lol. (Funny side note...he was with a super hot chick and a Chris Farley look-alike, and was sitting on his KNEES in the booth the whole time. Like a kid. Weird.)
We started with the Charcuterie Sampler...I had never heard of this, but it's like a selection of fine shaved meats (mostly raw). I believe there was raw bacon in there and it was heavenly.
The waiter paced the evening perfectly, and he helped me select my meal. I went with the filet medium rare paired with Diver Sea Scallops. You got to choose a sauce on the side so I went with the bernaise. Now, I am a HUGE steak fan/snob so it took a lot for me to go with the scallops and not just get a huge Flinstone-style hunk of meat. But the waiter did not steer me wrong.
Seriously, it was food porn. I could not stop looking at it, talking about it, tasting it, etc. The steak was cooked to perfection and the scallops were the best seafood I've ever had in my life. They had a sort of sweet, almost mapley flavor, and I was seriously bummed when there were gone. I did not share one bite.
I don't remember what my BF had...sorry was just too obsessed with my meal.
Everything about this place was perfect. I am trying Prime next month so I'll let you know how that compares!
Oh - the cab driver on the way there was very impressed we were going there and said it's known as the best steakhouse in Vegas.
Go! Enjoy!
