| - Eww. Just eww. I'm not sure what happened to the food quality at this place, but it's definitely gone downhill from the last time I had dinner here. First, the positive. 1) The location is fun. Sitting on the "patio" at the Forum Shops location is great people watching for us Vegas locals; 2) The service was great. Our hostess, waiter and busboy were all very friendly and attentive, however I will say that they were a bit too quick to want to remove my husband's salad before he was even finished eating it. Now, the negative. My lobster bisque was very good, I will give them that. However, my filet oscar was not. Although the filet was very very tender (no knife needed), it lacked any type of sear or flavor. Honestly, it tasted like it came out of a microwave. You know, like when you were in college and would take home steak to reheat later (because you're in college and steak was a commodity not to be wasted)....but it never tasted the same because a microwave kills the flavor and the texture. Well, that was my steak. it was gray, bland and mushy. And the creamed spinach, well...it was nothing to write home about. The first time I had creamed spinach was at a Palm in Chicago. I fell immediately in love and I was forever in search of the perfect creamed spinach at each steakhouse I'd frequent. But this time, alas, this time it was less than love. Not even really "like" at this point. I took the first bite and tasted vinegar. No creamy cream, no garlic, no parmesan. Just vinegar. Bleh. Unfortunately, it just wasn't the Palm of my memories and we won't be going back. Thank you for the great service, but no thank you for the bland food.
