| - i'd like to give this place 5 stars because my food was DELICIOUS, but i won't simply based on price. it's very very very expensive. but then again, it IS vegas, and it IS in the luxurious wynn hotel. so this is to be expected i suppose. anyway, i had the prix fixe menu for $48 which isn't too outrageous but if you order off the regular menu, the highly touted 9oz sirloin burger with foie gras, short ribs, and black truffles will set you back at least $30 as i recall. i did not order this burger but 3 people at my table did and i managed to grab a bite. it's QUITE tasty. $30 tasty? perhaps not. but delicious indeed.
for my meal i ordered the pumpkin soup, salmon, and chocolate hazelnut fondant. all were excellent. the pumpkin soup is one of the best pumpkin foods i've ever tasted in my life. and i've had a lot of pumpkin foods since every time i see pumpkin on a menu i gravitate towards it. the soup was just so flavorful. god, i could have had a whole meal just of that. the salmon was tasty but not anything super special. but the chocolate hazelnut fondant was really really good. i love hazelnut things and this was just top notch. it was tiny and i thought i was getting screwed but then i bit into it and it was so dense and rich that the small portion was just adequate.
overall, a pleasurable dining experience. i just wish it didn't cost so much.
