We went to Double Helix the 1st time back in Dec 2013 as a stop on our "progressive " dinner. Yes I know normally people go house to house but in Vegas (and NYC) we go bar to restaurant to bar.
It was a great choice for the 1st stop. We had a round of cocktails. then ordered the Chef's Selection of Charcuterie & cheese plus 2 orders of sliders along with a carafe of Sangria. More than enough for 6 people.
Or so we thought.
The Chef's selection was perfect for a little nosh - but we are BIG folks & so we ordered a second one of the top 3 choices from both cheese & meats.
The smoked duck & the chorizo were the star attractions from the meat side while the Moody Bleu & the truffle bruschetto were the big cheese.
I want the homemade onion jam on everything.
The "boys" of the group wanted cigars - so while they were having around of maker's mark cigars, we ordered another carafe of the sangria. I'm a sangria purest. fruit, juice & wine. But why stick to boring fruit when you can have blackberry brandy, orange vodka & apple schnapps coupled with a very full bodied red wine.
Luckily there was some nice crusty bread to soak up all the liquor.
But if you follow my yelp, you'll know i'm in this for the 'fatability"
So yes they have nice hip friendly seating. without having to ask for it.
Food: tasty & fresh
Ambiance: pleasant but a bit loud with the tv's going.
Service: attentive but not overly so.
total bill was $176.00 including tip & cigars. Appx 60.00 per couple. Not bad.
Would we go again? Yes! Tonight as a matter of fact. What better spot to celebrate National Crap Spackle day?
