| - We came here because we had $100 credit to use at the hotel, and SW and Botero were fully booked for the night.
The special thing about switch is how the restaurant setting changes every half hour between 3 different themes. I guess that was kind of cool. The thing we didn't like was how close it was to the casino floor, so one of the themes didn't have anything blocking the restaurant from the casino slot machines so you can see everything in the casino from your table, wasn't private at all.
The food, I'd give 4 stars. As someone below noted, the menu online isn't the same as the one in the restaurant. We had the kobe beef and carpaccio for appetizers. Both were amazing, especially the kobe beef. For side dishes we had asparagus and creamed spinach - good but nothing special. I also had the bone in rib eye - which was good, but didn't seem like a $50 steak. They also got it wrong too - i had ordered medium rare, and it came out well done. Actually 3 of our steaks came out overcooked, but mine was the worst. I let the waiter know, and he was really cool about it and said he'd bring me a new one out right away. Both him and the manager had apologized. It was over 15 minutes and both him and the manager came by to let me know it was coming out, but the waiter was really honest and let me know why it took longer - because the chef had thought they said something else and cooked something else on accident. But the waiter was definitely really nice throughout all of this. I finally got my ribeye and it was just right this time.
He also brought us 2 free desserts because of the steak situation. Chocolate peanut butter lava cake and bananas foster. Both were sooooo good. Probably the best part of the night.
I guess my biggest complaint is just the price for what you get, but it's expected being a restaurant at the hotel (Encore).
