| - Had really high hopes for this place....and at the end of it all, it was extremely expensive and painfully average.
Had some nice negroni cocktails up in the bar while we waited for the rest of our "always late" party to arrive.
We started with the Shellfish Platter($40.00/person). Oysters, shrimp, king crab and ceviche....the oysters were well-shucked and tasty, about two per person....shrimp, one per person, overcooked and tough, the crab was skinny and dry and the ceviche was a joke(garlic and citrus flavors were conspicuously weak), I had to ask for more chips, which were thin and poorly suited texture wise as an accompaniment.
Wedge salad next($16.00), too creamy, bacon was decent, but not of the best flavor/quality. The dish was "ok"...was hoping for excellent.
Got the Free range chicken (maybe 1/3rd of small chicken) with polenta fries....it was exceptionally tasty, and a fabulous deal at $29.00. Tried my friend's steaks and was glad I went with the chicken. We shared broccoli, truffle fries and asparagus for the table, all $12.00 and all meh.
They did give me a complimentary chocolate mousse for my birthday, and the staff was very polite and professional, but by the time we were at dessert, I was ready to bolt, and have to say for Las Vegas steakhouses, this is a bottom tier player.
