| - Wow, who knew that the Southpoint Casino had such a hidden gem of a restaurant!
We came here for an impromptu dinner. After our party of 6 debated between a few places on the strip, our friend Mike (fun fact: he is the husband of the current Mrs. Nevada, Kristie) said he wanted to take us to his "favorite restaurant, Michael's." I was definitely intrigued because I had never heard of the place before. I was even more surprised when he said it was located at the Southpoint. *Raised eyebrow*
We had a fantastic meal with impeccable service! The decor is a little outdated for me but I understand the theme they were going for. We had 8 servers waiting on our party of 6. *One thing I really loved was that the menus handed to the women were different than the menus handed to the men in that prices are NOT listed on the womens' menus. Cute, right? Clearly an old-school/old-fashioned practice and I like it. Alot.
Everyone unanimously agreed that this would be our cheat meal, (especially considering that I have a photoshoot coming up in 10 days, so this really was the "last supper" for me, ha.)
I can't remember it all (food coma) but here is some of what our table ordered:
2 bottles of cabernet
Appetizers
-Caesar salad (prepared table side)
-French onion soup
-Shrimp diablo (Favorite)
Entrees
-Dover sole (Favorite, multiple people ordered this dish)
-Seabass
-Filet mignon
Sides
-Potatoes au gratin
-Green beans (Favorite)
-Asparagus with hollandaise sauce
Dessert
-Bananas foster (prepared table side)
-Cheesecake
The chef also sent out, complimentary, 2 platters of chocolate dipped strawberries and a giant fruit bowl filled with fresh fruit.
Definitely worthy of a 6 star review, if I could give one.
