We made reservations to Chart House on my birthday since we were going to be downtown for the St. Patrick's day festivities and I had a pretty decent group with me. Having dinner in front of the fish tank was awesome but made me wonder if the fish I was eating was the lucky one to get plucked outta the tank.
I was surprised that they had made a personalized menu for my table. Apparently they ask if anyone is celebrating a special occasion when you call to make reservations. I thought this was pretty cool. Plus they let me keep the personalized menus. A very nice gesture.
Ok on to the food, the sea bass with saffron risotto was tasty. I think I enjoyed that better than my dish. I had the stuffed flounder, which was good but the flounder had no flavor and a little dry until you mixed it with the crab. The sea bass though, mmm. I also heard that the jumbo stuffed shrimp, surf & turf, and fish & chips were very enjoyable.
Overall the experience was awesome especially since it was in downtown. Our waiter Eddie was funny, very helpful and willing to split our checks. Towards the end of our dining experience, they brought out their Hot Chocolate Lava Cake and Eddie initiated the Happy Birthday song. Kudos to this guy! I heart Downtown Vegas and find it appealing when you find these hidden gems in that area.
