When visiting the Red Rock Resort take a minute and check out T-bones. If not for dinner stop and have a drink or enjoy their happy hour. The restaurant is very nice and trendy inside. You do not need to be dressed formally but it's okay to dress up. When we visit during the summer months I will wear shorts and shirt or jeans and a shirt are acceptable as well any other time of the year. I recommend making a reservation on Open Table; I love racking up the points. If you can ask for Table 23, it is supposed to be one of the top tables in the restaurant. Also, give yourself a good 2 hours when dining here. I think of it like going to the movies and take it in as an experience.
I am finally writing a review for T-bones and this is was my 8th time dining here. Every visit has been phenomenal. We always receive excellent service from every staff member. It starts as soon as you enter the door to the moment you leave.
On this most recent visit we went in to celebrate my wife's birthday. We skipped out on wine and went for cocktails. The wife had several Cantaloupe martinis and I went with 3 Isaac Newtons (old fashioned meets Manhattan), they were $16 each. Once you sit down they serve you a variety of breads. I love the pretzel bread. They will bring more if requested. There are plenty of appetizers to choose from so you may need to skip on the bread. As an appetizer I selected the Seafood Jackpot. It was a jackpot for me because I love me some seafood. There are plenty of oysters, king crab, jumbo shrimp, etc., this will set you back about $75; if you are eating here you are probably not worried about the price but I think it's good to know. I think my wife had some of the crab but I ate most of it around 90% of it. I'm such a pig.
The wife loves the Hearts of Palm salad. Lots of avocado and all the good stuff. The salad can be shared but it is served for one. Wife went with the 18 oz bone-in filet and I had the Wagyu 10 oz striploin. It was a lot of red meat so be prepared. For the sides we shared the corn, asparagus, and a sweet potato. We could have stopped with the corn and asparagus. The sweet potato was out of this world delicious. I do not think I have ever tasted a sweet potato cooked so perfectly.
All of the food was cooked to perfection. I love visiting T-bones and I love the service. The "Captain", Darlene went above and beyond making our meal memorable and enjoyable. Roni was another member who helped us out and she gave us phenomenal service. The staff was so nice and personable. We had several staff members including the manager stop by to wish my wife a happy birthday. They all helped make my wife feel a little more special on her very special day. I would like to thank T-bones and the Red Rock Resort for the excellent service and food. I cannot wait to go back. Happy eating!
