Service: 5 star
Last year when I came to Vegas, I had the best wonton soup (at least in the west coast) in the Buffet in Wynn. Since then, I had cravings for the soup again and again. Born in Hong Kong, I was not able to find the same quality of wonton soup in the States. Expecting the same soup from Red 8, I have to say I was disappointed.
The reason wonton soup had drifted apart from:
Wonton: Tasted okay and had better pork compare to other places. Didn't give me wow factor.
Noodle: They used very thin noodle which is different from typical Chinese restaurant. However, I like the more chewy kind of noddle much better in this dish.
Soup: I am sorry Red 8, but the soup is the worst, even worse than other restaurants and very blended taste.... Soup is suppose to be the soul of wonton soup, and that was one of the reasons I liked the wonton soup from the Wynn Buffet. Red 8 added very little green onion and no garlic chives at all!
Aside from wonton soup, we ordered the dumpling noodle. The best of this meal was the Chicken satays. $10 for four pieces. I also liked our waitress who was a Korean lady. She was helpful and made this dinning experience a good one: bringing syrup and extra lemon for my tea, bringing more green onion for my soup, etc. I hope there would be improvement for the food in the future.
