| - I have to say, I was disappointed. I expected so much more from Gordon Ramsay.
First let me say, the restaurant is big and noisy and I felt like it was more of a steak mill then a personal experience. The staff was arrogant, except for our server's assistant who was lovely. Our table was upstairs with a view of the servers hallway, the elevator and the washstand. We asked to move and they graciously did seat us downstairs at a much better table.
The "meat" trolley is ridiculous. Rattles with round mirrors showing the marbleing of the meat. It's big and doesn't fit in the crowded areas well.
The drinks were amazing and the pre-dinner selection of breads and butter with sea salt was delicious.
We ordered Beef Wellington for two, ceasar salad, no appetizers. The server seemed a bit annoyed and informed us that it would take 40 minutes to prepare. OK.
We started with the ceasar salad, nothing special. It came with a scotch egg, but other than that, meh.
The wellington arrived, close to the 40 minute window. The filet was amazing. Tender and perfectly cooked. The pastry was a bit soggy and it all seemed cold, but overall it was seasoned perfectly.
We passed on dessert.
Bill= $200, not bad for 4 drinks a salad and the wellington, considering the name.
Sorry Gordon but there are too many amazing restaurants in Vegas. I won't be back.
