| - This restaurant overall was excellent. I was there with a party of 4 on Sat 12/19 at 8pm and got a table right away. I find it important to note that Aria, the hotel the restaurant is in, just opened its doors on Wed 12/16 and from what I was told Fri 12/18 was the first night the restaurant was open to the public. The price point was higher; we spent around $100 per person, with drinks appetizers and salads, main courses and sides (this is excluding the 2 bottles of wine). The food was excellent and what we would expect from this type of restaurant, and though the flow of the meal was a bit on the slow side, as I said they had just opened so we expected there to be kinks for them to work out. The wait staff was nothing but friendly and helpful, other than the sommelier which left some to be desired. He didn't really know the wines, and just didn't seem like he wanted to be there given his comments. I think the only thing that was a standout negative was the napkins. I think because they are new, they have a lot of lint coming off of them, so every time someone would get up to use the restroom and the wait staff would fix the napkins, the lint would fly in the air and get in the glasses. As I said, they were new so, though it was a bit unappetizing, it was understandable. We told the hostess about it as we were leaving and they seemed aware by that point. Now, I usually don't write this much for reviews, but given the one review shown for this place (which I find did not at all give it justice), I wanted to give a little more info. Overall, great place and as Vegas locals, we will go again.
