Oh what a night!
First of all, we dined at the Binion's steakhouse because my husband had been there 7 years prior and had wanted to return ever since. This is the quintessential old school steakhouse! We were a party of 6 and got and awesome swank booth with an even swanker view!
Lucky for us nobody else seems to know about the place- we practically had a wing to ourselves.
I started with the escargot- WOW!!! Never thought a crawly thing could be such a butterlicious thing of delight! Could have eaten 'em all night. Unlike the previous poster I thought that the french onion soup was amazing- not to salty, thick with onions and the crispy cheese was PERFECTO.
They also let me "build-a-salad" and create a combo to my specks that was not on the menu.
Hubby got the king crab w/ drawn butter, good, but save your $$$ and get them at the Wynn buffet- Binion's is all 'bout the steak.
Unlike many an "upscale" restaurant, the portions generous, as in take it home, rather than tiny, as in pass the bread basket. Refreshing for a gal that likes to eat.
Maitre D was amazingly fun, bought us all after dinner drinks and desserts. We shut the place down and were feelin' real good afterwards. The perfect Vegas experience.
I will remember this place always and look forward to returning!
