| - Overall, I was disappointed by this Iron Chef America restaurant.
Just so everyone has full information, I do not like Bobby Flay. On Iron Chef he is so cocky, and I bet you nine times out of ten, his dishes will consist of the secret ingredient plus some blended sauce made of tomatillos and habaneros. But, I have also watched his throwdown show, and people seem to like his food. And the guy looks like he can grill up some mean meat. So I was excited to try his restaurant.
On to the review:
My friend made the reservation for six people and they took her credit card down because if you're late or miss the reservation, they will charge you $50 per person! Needless to say, we were on time.
Bread Basket: The free bread basket they bring you at the start of the meal was really good. It is an assortment of muffins, coffee cake, and breads. I must say that the jalapeno cheddar bread was damn good.
Appetizers: The rough cut tuna nachos were good, but small portions. 7 tiny chips to be exact. I know because after each of us only took one chip, there was only one left on the plate. The fish was fresh and tasty, but the sauce may have been a little bit too sweet for me. The bacon and hashbrown quesadilla was nothing special.
Entrees: I though Bobby Flay, have to get a meat dish, right? So my friend and I both ordered the pork sandwich. I wouldn't order it again. The sandwich was dry and just didn't do anything for me. Very little pork for such thick bread. French fries were good with a nice little spice to them. The steak tartar was good, the best entree in my opinion. The spicy chicken and sweet potato hash was just weird tasting. I did not like it all, but maybe that's just my tastes. The egg and steak dish was bleh....steak, eggs, tortilla, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole, it wasn't baaad per se, just not great. My other friend ordered the spicy egg dish which I did not try because I don't particularly care for goat cheese, however, the ham that came with it was pretty good, but not spectacular.
Dessert: We got the chocolate cake, which was good, but I've had way better at other places. Nothing transcendent here.
Everyone in my group felt the same way about the food...disappointing. I wouldn't return back there to eat. Our waiter was really good, and the decor is nice inside. (But isn't the decor nice in all Vegas hotel restaurants?) I would give it 2 1/2 if we could give 1/2s. My advice: skip it (at least for brunch).
