  • We ended fall restaurant week 2014 at Emerils. We did the Open table reservations once again and got email updates to confirm but never a phone call from restaurant to confirm. We arrived early which was not an issue for staff and were seated right away. I do have to say I was hoping for a more quiet setting it is open concept for most part with the bar at the front without a partition from dining area so crowd noise was sufficient enough to not allow an intimate conversation. First course. Started with a Seafood & Andouille pork sausage with shrimp and steamed rice. Jut what a Gumbo should be, thick and flavorful. The dish has that cajun bite that adds just enough kick but not to make you scream for a glass of water. Josie had the Tuscan Kale Salad with Raisin Vinaigrette, toasted Pecans and Queso Mahon Cheese. She stated kale was crisp and fresh vinaigrette had a good flavor no long aftertaste. Second course. Josie had the seared scallops with Bacon, corn summer vegetable succotash with a herb caper butter sauce. I had a bite of these and they were melt in your mouth good. perfectly cooked and the succotash was flavorful. I had Fisheman's stew. Littleneck Clams, Mussels and Shrimp. I was not impressed with the dish and was hoping for more sauce. Had a crustini for dipping but with the lack of sauce it seemed pointless. I know it is a stew but the overabundance of stewed tomatoes took away from the overall taste. Dessert. Bread and butter pudding and Banana Cream Pie. The bread pudding has this flavor you want, a buttery melt in your mouth without the mush taste that some bread puddings offer. Small Banana cream pie square with whipped topping, chocolate shavings and caramel sauce. Great ending dessert adding a touch of soft flavor after the spices we had in the meal itself. Overall a good dinner. Not sure if I will be back. They did offer a wine tasting for 20 dollars that sounded nice if we had the fortitude for that on this evening. 3 stars for tonight. Ambiance was not great and noise was loud. I know it is a prix fix menu but I have seen better efforts on restaurant week that would make me want to return and try a full menu pairing. Again I don't get the $4.50 a glass for a diet drink. Hope someone can tell me why this is a restaurant pricing standard in Vegas. Again my glass was never empty, bonus there. Staff was attentive and present when needed. Maybe I have high hopes for a restaurant put together by a star like Emeril. So 2 seafood places this restaurant week and RM Seafood would be the winner.
