This is Michael Mina at his casual best! An American pub; Skeptical poker buds and I walk in ready to be insulted but were pleasantly surprised. Straight to it, the food.
Remember, Mina is a master of seafood; namely lobster so...
There back! Lobster corn dogs. Incredibly sweet chunks of perfectly cooked lobster in a crispy, fluffy, semi sweet corn dog coating with a tangy whole grain mustard and crème fraiche. Simply put, good eats.
Other starters such as the duck spring rolls with ginger chili dipping sauce, mint and cilantro (excellent with the earthy flavor of moist duck accented by a decent "Asian" dipping sauce that brings forth the flavor of the oily duck meat and a great, light, crisp tempura or maitake mushrooms in a soy, scallion dipping sauce are excellent. As with all Mina's restaurants, try what sounds different. While not authentic Asian, still very good flavors.
For larger plates, the Lobster roll with jalapeno creamed corn is excellent. It's not Northeast authentic but who cares. Rich, perfectly cooked lobster in a crisp, buttery roll surrounded by a very spicy creamed corn. The flavor of the jalapeno brings a rich chili taste that contrast well with the sweet, cold water lobster. The Korean BBQ salmon burger is also good eats. Soy marinated, cooked medium, and accompanied by cucumber kimchi and ginger aioli is incredibly well balanced. Complex texture. Simply delicious.
Great pub style service. Friendly and correct.
Nice selection of craft cocktails and infusions. Solid but not too creative beer list. OK wine list. Vegas resort pricing.
A worthy replacement for Seablue.
