| - I came here to celebrate a very good friend's birthday with her husband and three others. When you first enter the restaurant located on the 42nd floor of the Palms Resort, if you have a date, you had better get a room because this place is Tres Sexy!!! Sweeping views of the valley all the way to NY it would seem. OH....Dress to impress Boys and Girls. This is the kind of place that would frown on casual dress. Just deal with it. It's the way they roll. If you want to dress casually then there are opportunities for great food in Daisy Dukes and flip flops on the first floor. Think Sexy...be sexy. You're sexy! Okay, so lots of smiles, lots of love when you walk in. Have reservations please. You're seated and then an phalanx of Wait Staff swarms over you like the locust in The Ten Commandments. A chorus of greetings, a symphony of ice and silverware clinks and next thing you know, your water glasses are filled, napkin's in your lap and the show has begun...Drinks, appetizers...which I personally think were the best part of the night. We ordered the Chilled Seafood Platter...Invited guests were Lobsters neatly halved and easily accessed so to maintain your sexiness as you eat. King Crab legs, also sexy ready...careful of the butter drip though...succulent raw oysters on the half shell...chill and with the perfect texture and freshness10 point Prawns, Party on your pallet baby; it was nice. Try with a buttery Chardonnay like Cakebread. Your senses erupt with the freshness and abundance of it all. Honestly, if we would have stopped at the Seafood Platter and wine, I would have given one or two more stars but alas, tradition calls for the Entree... I had the Fillet. It was dry and overdone like, again, it was out too soon and placed under a heating lamp. Didn't have that just off the grill sizzle happening to it. I understand the challenges of x amount of Chefs and cooks servicing x squared patrons, but my job is to eat, theirs is to satisfy. I gave it an "Ok" due to it being so SEXY and perhaps, on another night, the Fillet would curl my toes.
All in all, it's worth a go. I've only been once and Alize, like a lover that cheated, deserves another chance. No, I've never cheated on my girlfriend...
Honey? Honey? I didn't!
Chow!
