  • I dined here the first weekend after Aria opened to the public. The space is beautiful, as you'd expect from a restaurant in the Light Group - a tasteful blend of chrome, leather, and wood. Even the Nambe flatware is striking. Just like at Fix, the restaurant opens to the casino, but you never feel like you're IN the casino. For a restaurant that seats (I'm guessing) 300 people, they had a ton of staff running around (we counted at least 30 people on the floor). The food alone would earn the restaurant 4.5 stars -- losing that half star for terrible value (about $10 for individual-sized sides, $5 for a drop of sauce!!!). The only thing on the table that we didn't like was the gratin potato side -- potatoes were undercooked, cheese on top was overcooked, and the dish was decadent to the point that it wasn't enjoyable. That said, the union salad was fresh and unique, the beef carpaccio was a savory treat, and steaks were melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The bone-in rib-eye was one of the best steaks I've had and was enough to feed two (not-starving) people -- but at $58 it should. The surf and turf looked spectacular, and could feed 3 lighter eaters rather than the recommended two, but again, for $159, you SHOULD have a giant mass of food. Service in general was genuinely helpful and pleasant, but it was the pacing of the meal that was the problem. It took over 45 minutes from the time we ordered to receive our appetizers, and then another half hour from the time our salad plates were cleared to the time we received our entrees. At that point, not all entrees came out at the same time, not all our sides came out, and the runners had no clue where anything belonged. I don't care that we were a party of 9, for an upscale restaurant charging that kind of money, I expect service to be not so discombobulated, whether you've been open for 3 days or 3 years. So, would I come back? YES -- if you just work out the little service kinks, this will be a fine restaurant. I'm just going to wait a few months before I give Union another try. Side-note: Management SIGNIFICANTLY compensated us for our experience, which we greatly appreciated, but as a Yelper, my good reviews can't be bought!
