I was very excited to see another Elizabeth Blau restaurant open and across the street from our house! Unfortunately last nights dinner fell far short of the mark. We started with the seafood tower which was perfectly fine by Las Vegas standards but nothing too exciting. We then moved onto the steak tartar and the sea urchin toast. Both were good, the tartar lacked flavor and the toast served with it was grilled and burned which distracted from the flavor. The sea urchin was very good and I would order again.
The disaster came with the main course. I ordered the bone in dry aged NY Strip. The first one arrived at medium well. I of course returned the steak and when the second came it was cooked correctly to medium rare, but the meat has absolutely no flavor at all and was inedible. The manager was apologetic and stated they needed to find a new purveyor for their meat! Shocking this was not dialed in before opening! The owners Elizabeth and Kim were not in attendance and you could see the difference from when they opened Honey Salt. Maybe they have grow too fast, I know the Manager was with another unhappy guest before speaking with us. The room is beautiful and well appointed but the service and more importantly the food is lacking. I cannot recommend this restaurant and think they should remove the "steak" from the name Andiron Steak and Sea!
