I don't enjoy frequenting the typical tourist spots on the Strip when I visit Las Vegas. We've found the best meals are off the beaten path. I happened to find Echo & Rig on Yelp. There was only one downside to the experience.
We loved the food. The atmosphere was nice. We were able to use Open Table. Everthing was a winner except for Sam, our waiter. For whatever reason Sam thought little of us. Any question I asked was met with a condescending answer. I don't understand the mentality. Sam is a waiter. While I don't think I'm any better than Sam I also don't think Sam is any better than me. Clearly he did think so. I asked about a side and was informed snidely that marjoram is a spice. I didn't ask about marjoram. I asked how the corn was served (on the cob or removed). My lamb chops came with violet mustard. I tasted it and found it to be delicious so I asked how it was prepared. All he would say is it's VIOLET mustard - three times he said it. I told him I tasted wine and was curious (we like to replicate things at home). He left and came back a little later, telling me dismissively that it was a red wine and mustard reduction. Was that so hard?
On the other hand his assistant, Julian, was a breath of fresh air. He was young and seemed happy if we were happy. I was so impressed with his attention to detail and his genuine courtesy that I stopped the manager and told her I thought he did a wonderful job.
So I guess I recommend the place with the caveat that you should avoid Sam.
