  • Wow. I've been waiting on this post, because I really don't like trashing a place in a public forum. Just seems like a trollish thing to do, and generally I'd only go one star for a personal offense directed at me or somebody in my party. Thus, I'll go two stars - and the second star is only because it's in the Encore, an otherwise absolutely excellent experience from service to gaming to design to the thoughtful Wynn touch (and XS). This is notable: absolutely the worst food I've had at a 'nice' restaurant. I'm sorry, Steve Wynn, I personally am because I almost feel like I'm slighting you by short-starring your friend Ol' Blue Eyes. Maybe I should have known naming it after a dead celeb would be a dead giveaway of its shitiness. Let me stop for a second and say something positive: I really did enjoy the decor - a large portrait of Frank adorns two walls in a somehow not overbearing way; the use of color is prominent & sophisticated, and the patio + open-facing sidewall was very appealing, and lent an air of openness to the space. Fun setup, and competent staff, if not wholly memorable. And kudos for setting the bar tv on an endless reel of Frank movies. And of course the soundtrack (all Frank) is amazing. But the food. . . I had the lamb ossobucco as recommended by the server - "my personal favorite." The lamb literally was so rich, crossing my lips with an almost gamey flavor. The accompanying risotto was layered in salt. Not just that it "was salty," I'm telling you I needed water for about two hours straight after he meal. Had their shrimp appetizer which tasted like a shrimp cocktail, only deconstructed - boring, but at least not bad. Had their meatballs - which were fine, in that they tasted like costco meatballs, which I actually like (dark secret) but when you're paying $25 for an appetizer of four meatballs, please prepare something special. Lastly, tried the lasagna - inedible. Kid you not. Wasn't even good enough to choke down. How do you mess up Lasagna at a place named after this legend. Again - the décor was great, the service was fun but what a horrible FOOD experience. Wow. Fun stuff though and it was expensed so like I say - a bad experience makes a good story. And because of Steve Wynn & the milieu at the Encore, I refuse to give it the one star it truly deserves.
