| - Really, really good Dinner. I took my Dad here for his birthday. What a lovely view as you walk in and see the view out the window. It's not much to look at outside, but it just adds to the ambiance. We got there about 5:30pm and the bar area was packed! They had a social hour menu, but I didn't see what was on it. Judging by the crowd, they must have some amazing specials. I'll have to come back and check it out. I was surprised and actually happy that an "upscale" restaurant had TV's, but playoff basketball was on, and so was some good baseball games, so we were happy to be able to watch them as we ate. The service was great. Sean was our waiter and he was very good and attentive, but not overly attentive, which is what we like. There were also several people assisting him with water, bread, food delivery and dish removal. The wine list was very good. Was happy to see Jordan wines on the list. It is very rare, despite the fact they are awesome. The bread basket was a variety of three breads... sourdough, cranberry walnut, and some sort of crunchy flat bread. And they served the bread with regular butter, chive butter, and honey butter. All of the breads and butter was great. I started with the French Onion Soup, which was awesome. The broth was rich and flavorful. The onions were cooked perfectly. The cheese was melted over the top perfectly. My Dad had the spinach salad and he said it was the best he'd ever had. I may get it next time, because it looked good and how much he liked it. I had a small filet for dinner, which was eight ounces. It was cooked perfectly and it had incredible flavor. It came with a mixed vegetable medley which was good too. My Dad had the salmon and he said it was one of the best preparations he'd ever had. It was served on a cedar plank with a dill sauce. He also had a baked potato to go with it. Normally, he does not finish his meal, despite how good it is, but he did last night. He was very impressed as was I. Neither one of us had room for dessert, but we will be back again in the near future. Another very good restaurant choice in the Summerlin area and at the Suncoast.
