| - I've only been here once and only for the food and drink, but I'm not much of a club kid. I went here with a friend, without a reservation, and in jeans and a top. Not dressy by any means, but then again, we were WAY too early for the club scene and we didn't eat inside the restaurant. We sat at the bar, watched the game, and chatted up about what was going on in our lives. We decided to order some appetizers to go with our cocktails, as neither one of us was super hungry. Well....
Being a resident of the great Sin City, I scoff at these over priced restaurants that reside on the Strip. I try, like every other local, to avoid the Strip as much as possible. But on the odd occasion that finds me inside a mega hotel, I bite the bullet and pay the price - literally.
We ordered the mozzarella balls (yes, balls not sticks) and the Kobe beef ball. Come to think of it, I see a pattern forming here, but I digress...
While the food was excellent (dish #1 was 3 mozzarella balls deep fried with a marinara sauce and a watercress salad - dish #2 was 1 rice and peas shaped ball filled with ground beef - Kobe, I think not tho- fried to a crisp), it was hardly worth $22 each dish. They are appetizers, true, but at that rate, I wouldn't be able to afford dinner.
We ate in happy fashion, watched the game du jour, and merrily drank our over priced martinis. After the food though, we booked it, as we noticed the line forming and the club crowd gathering. Would I go again? Probably not...
