We were staying at Caesar's Palace and wanted to get a nice dinner Sat night. We had walked by Friday and it was PACKED and thought this would be an awesome place to try. They don't take reservations between 6-9 so we made reservations for 530. Good thing because by 630 there was already a small line forming by the hostess stand. I really like the openness and vibe of the restaurant and the staff were all very attentive, minus the hostess. (We walked by earlier to make a reservation at 545 and the hostess standing NEXT to the one we were talking to CHIMED IN with "We don't accept reservations from 6-9PM" We were like... Okay.... we wanted a reservation at 545!" Needless to say she minded her own business after that.)
We arrived at our reservation and was promptly seated. Our waiter checked on us every so often throughout dinner to see if we needed anything and the other staff were so animated, friendly, and helpful. The bread basket came with a lot of different kinds of bread but we had to limit the bread intake because we ordered so much yummy food!
Since there were 5 of us we ordered A TON OF FOOD:
Lobster Bisque: This was very tasty and rich. The lobster pieces were so big and the quality is just really up there.
Crab Cakes: Also, really big pieces of crab. The cakes are smaller, but tall so there was still a lot of it. The sauce was also really good. Only thing about this was that it broke apart so easily so it was harder to eat with a fork.
Fried Calamari: This was the only thing that I didn't enjoy that much. The pieces were kind of soggy and just fell apart when picked up with a fork. We left a lot on this plate untouched.
Porterhouse Steak for 2: This came out on a piping hot place with butter and they served it for us. It included filet and strip steak. It was a good amount and the filet was really nice and tender.
Filet Mignon on the Bone: This was SOOO TENDER and tasty! It was a HUGE piece of filet mignon and just so delicious. This is something I would get again!
Prime Rib on the Bone: When this came out I was thinking... holy... this was so BIG! It looked really juicy, but I didn't try it because I was so full... I think this piece is actually enough for TWO though.
Dover Sole: One of the servers filleted the sole off of the bone tableside and gave us a nice show which was pretty amusing. The sauce was a lemony sauce and the fish was cooked and seasoned perfectly.
For sides we tried:
Duck fat french fries: try these without ketchup and you can really taste the difference. I was still craving these the next day!
Creamed spinach: Nice and creamy, but didn't stand out too much.
Sauteed Mushrooms: I really liked how they put a variety of mushrooms in here and not the usual white mushrooms.
Mashed Potatoes: These were mashed pretty finely and just melt in your mouth goodness!
And of course dessert:
Ice Cream over chocolate chip cookie: This was like a pizookie from BJ's but the cookie was must more moist and it was a great finish to a wonderful meal.
I would have to say that they also have a good collection of wines, but when you ordered cocktails the glasses are pretty tiny... like smaller than the average by a lot.
This is def a great place to get steak although it is a bit pricey... but hey, it's Vegas. Everything's a little more pricy... I feel it's worth it because the portions are so big and the quality is so good!
