| - My dad surprised my husband and I with a Las Vegas getaway. We decided to try new things and that included checking out the MGM Grand. While walking around, my husband spotted Crush and wanted to eat here. In the interest of full disclosure, I wanted to finish up on the floor and then take the taxi to the Venetian to eat at the Grand Luxe, but relented because it is rare for my husband to want to try anything new. I wasn't impressed to hear that the food was designed for people to share, especially given the prices.
However, the food itself really made up for it. It was absolutely delicious! And aside from Grand Luxe's Asian nachos, their food is the best I have ever had in Las Vegas. We were told to each pick out two or three items to order. I ordered the roast cauliflower, tuna 2 ways, and the grilled salmon, while my husband ordered the lamb meatballs, the California sea bass, and the shrimp risotto. We were blown away by how good everything tasted, even as the portions were just tantalizing enough to make us want more. My husband was so impressed by the roast cauliflower and the carrot miso broth that accompanied the salmon, he has been working on creating them at home.
We go to Las Vegas at least once a year, and we're already planning our next trip. Crush is going on our permanent list of "must eats" when we're taking in the sights of Sin City.
