| - I loved loved loved the decor and atmosphere of this restaurant, was simple, with a level of elegance and class not found to often in Vegas.
We sat at the bar before dinner for a drink; the bartender was super friendly and went over menu items he enjoyed while he made our drinks. My date was sold on the fact that they had a secret recipe for the best Manhattan in town. It was fabulous by the way, they use a lemon twist to garnish instead of a cherry, and I think that is what made the difference! I had a dirty martini of course, was pretty close to perfect!
When we first sat down and I opened the menu I am not going to lie, I was not very turned on to eat anything really, with menu items like pork belly, nothing really stood out to me at first. We started off with the seared Ahi, which being from Hawaii, was just OK (hardly any flavor), but then came the main course. I ordered the beef tenderloin, and I have never enjoyed anything so much in my life. It literally melted in my mouth! Was the perfect portion size, not too much, but not so small you walk out hungry. My date had the Pork Tenderloin and it was very rich and flavorful as well, I'm not a huge pork fan, but it was very good.
I will have to disagree with Blair B. we had a great server and the bartender was really amazing, even the hostesses were really friendly.
We didn't save any room for dessert, so I will have to go back to let you know how their desserts are!
