We were staying at MGM and walked by Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill a few times. Finally, a couple hours before my bittersweet flight back to California, we figured why not. Plus we were short on time too.
Strange to say that the decor was actually quite elegant and simple, especially since it was right smack in the casino, but while in the Wolfgang Puck bubble, you'd nearly forget that there's a casino all around it.
Our server was very accommodating and funny, without being obtrusive.
The menu isn't overwhelming and a fwe items actually caught my attention. We ordered the corn chowder soup, burger with avocado and bacon with fries, organic chicken with veggies and yukon gold potatoes and the vanilla creme brulee.
The bread basket was a great way to start the meal, crusty, warm, doughy bread with a ton of soft slightly salted butter. They had an olive bread too whichw was just OK. The soup wasn't spectacular, it was more soup and less chowder in terms of consistency, but was flavored well either way.
Our entress looked yummy. I will admit though that the burger looked much more appetizing. Generous serving of fresh avocado and thick cut bacon atop that burger. Pretty sure he liked it. The chicken was seasoned nicely, tender and moist, although nothing to write home about. I should have opted for either pizza or a burger as well.
I'm typically a huge fan of creme brulee, but this particular dish was missing the vanilla part of its name, and was very eggy less custardy, if that makes sense. Actually didn't finish it if you can believe that.
Overall, I would have probably fancied my meal better had I ordered something else, but that's what second reviews are for.
