| - I was in town this past weekend with my son and four of his groomsman for his bachelor party. We needed a steak and found this place here on Yelp. After the mostly very positive reviews, we decided to go.
Circus Circus. What can I say. Wayyyy past its prime. But nicely hidden, so much so that if you're not really looking you will miss it, is The Steakhouse. What a nice surprise.
This is a throwback to the old school style steakhouse which my son and I totally love. Dark wood, cozy surroundings etc. I was looking for the Rat Pack. (Frank, Dino, Sammy) You walk right past the grill area when you are seated and we had a table where we could watch the guys cooking the steaks. Kind of neat. Just a great atmosphere for eating a steak dinner with friends.
We were greeted by our waiter, Ray, promptly. I mentioned the bachelor party thing and he immediately lit up and was engaged in making our time a good one. He is a veteran of the game and knew just how to take care of us. Drinks and food were ordered and away we went.
Where they stumbled was with the food. Drinks were great, salads were very good. But 3 of us had ordered steak medium rare and received medium well. Also, I ordered a lobster tail with my ribeye and the tail was raw on the inside. BUT our man Ray handled the situation professionally which is to say with no comment other than a sincere apology and the offer to redo the meals which we accepted. Unfortunately, a few minute later, a runner came out with my lobster tail which had clearly been nuked in the microwave. All shriveled up and steaming. Ray was nearby and I flagged him down and he was aghast. The ruined tail was taken away no questions asked. We a were offered a round of free cocktails while we waited and it was a bachelor party so....Way to go Ray.
Unfortunately our 3 friends were done with their meals when our redone meals arrived. But they arrived completely fresh and perfectly done. No recycled veggies etc. In the end we all had terrific meals and were completely satisfied.
But again, the fantastic Ray then offers unsolicited our choice of free dessert or an after dinner drink of our choice. Again, being it was a bachelor party....We all had generous shots of a nice high end bourbon for "dessert."
So even though there were a few hiccups, the staff handled them very well and we were completely satisfied. And at a price that was about half of what we would have paid at one of the more notable places like Gordon Ramsey's at the Paris. A great time was had by all.
Thanks Ray.
