Since I was in town for a pharmacy convention I had to bite the bullet one night and go to dinner with a bunch of coworkers to David Burke in the Venetian. Luckily it was on a drug company's dime and not mine!
First thing I thought is WTF is up with these Humpty Dumpty figurines? I thought it was odd and some of them mildly creeped me out but maybe I didn't have enough booze in my system at that point. I should have made up some excellent poetry like Joy B and the wait would have been more fun!!
We were seated in the private room off to the side because we had such a large group. The room is nice and spacious and the wait staff quickly accomodated by bringing in another table when it was clear our party was over capacity of the larger table.
Since it was a large party there was a pre-set menu to order from. Our first course was salad and I chose Caesar. It was eh. Really it was only leaves with some dressing - throw me an extra crouton or something damn! For dinner I had a steak and it was cooked more medium than medium rare but not a big deal since we had such a large group. Overall though I just wasn't wowed with it and I've definitely had better steaks in Texas. Dessert was the best part because they brought out a platter with different choices. The best one tasted like a pumpkin cheesecake and was delicious. Oh and yeah, the wine that the rep picked out was tasty and I enjoyed many, many glasses of it.
Of note, I think that part of the problem with my experience was the fact that we were in a large group. I had friends who ate there the same night and ordered off the menu and were raving about everything. I've been here in the past as well and remember it being much better. So I think say NO to the large party set menu and say yes to ordering off the regular menu and you should be good to go!
