This was about as mediocre as you can get. Food was certainly nothing special. The prime rib I had was worth half the $38 I paid and certainly wasn't a prime cut. The horseradish was the runny, canned variety. The bread served with dinner was OK but was cold and some pieces were very stale.
The salad served with the dinners was great and I could have left after that. The portions were very large but lacked any special preparation, taste, or flare.
The wine list is rather decent if you aren't looking for a great bottle - and if you were why would you eat at the South Point. Prices were excellent on the wine.
Someone in my party had the halibut that looked great and I would try that next time I go.
The service was rather apathetic and slow. Nothing to make you feel special. I would rate the service as a step below Outback steakhouse. This really irked me as I can put up with mediocre food if the service is excellent. Why be in the service industry if you don't have any charm or warmth? Not to digress, but I can't believe how poor the service is in Las Vegas at Casinos for the most part. People, we're in a recession - if not depression in Las Vegas. Service people in this town walk around like zombies. They really need to step up their game in this restaurant. It took 45 minutes to order and I was wondering 'what happened to my server, did he go on a break?' My water was never refilled as well.
I would like to return to this restaurant but would rather go to the restaurant atop the M resort as it offers better (well actually has) views, same prices, and a well trained staff. I have written other reviews pertaining to the South Point to express the positives and negatives I have experienced ranging from their hotel to other restaurants and have received responses from management which is nice to the extent that I think they will do something about it.
So South Point why shouldn't I go to the M resort or Lawry's instead of the Silverado Steakhouse? I receive better food, service and atmosphere. Please put some effort into this place.
