After all the rave reviews from Yelp users, personal friends, and 'best Vegas buffet' articles, I had very high expectations for Wicked Spoon. After not eating all day and paying $44 for dinner there (on a Saturday night), I was ready to grub. From Asian, American, Italian, and seafood, they had a wide range of food to choose from. I liked how they had a macaroni and cheese bar - you chose the toppings and someone made it for you. It was hearty/heavy/and yummy. I also liked how they served some of the dishes in small buffet portions, so as not to waste food. They had cute tiny pots and pans you could load onto your plate. For dinner though, I mostly stuck to the seafood: ceviche, crabs, and mussels.
Ambience and enviornment is amazing. I really like how the restaurant was set up and decorated. The designer did a great job.
At the end of the day though, what we pay for is the food. The mussels were yummy, but nothing really blew my mind away...except for dessert. I made the right decision in choosing Thai Iced Tea flavored gelato.... OH MY GOSH - whatever you do, get this! I wish this was sold in local grocery stores, because this is what they did right.
Would I return to Wicked Spoon? Yes. I would like to try this place for brunch! I would also return for dinner, but only during the week.
