sushi
Emily H.

Went to Blue Ribbon one last time bc we heard they were closing. We ordered deviled eggs, burgees, sushi, cheese fondue, caesar salad & steak w/a cucumber cocktail and old fashioned drinks. Everything was hot fresh and tasty. Our overall service was great we had David who was the best. It is a nice clean dark atmosphere w/upscale decor as well. We will miss the best Vegas mixologists "Ramsey" So find out where he will be working next & go het a cocktail!

A seafood lovers dream!!!
Sarah B.

Service- absolutely amazing our server was very much on top of everything made sure we were seated and their selection of seafood towers as a seafood lover were insanely great! Food- We decided to go with a couple entrees but the main course was indeed the tray with shrimp, clams, mussels, lobster legs, crab legs, every type of seafood you could ever want and such a beautiful presentation!!! It was a bit upscale here but I love that, and when that happens most of the time it means the food is DELICIOUS so I was so excited to try some seafood when I heard about this place and 10/10 will ABSOLUTELY come back!!! Yum!!!

Prime Rib
Kendall C.

Excellent service, our waiter was really funny . My prime Rib was very tender and taste great with the horseradish mix . I always order horseradish mix too dip my steak in , its a must! Potatos were very creamy . $80 Prime Rib little pricey but so is everything in Vegas .

Faith O.

Great place to go when you want steak tartare and oysters, I also wanted some stuff on their board with the seafood but I think they are in transition so they don't have that stuff, but everything we ordered was great. This place is in the cosmo and the service was pleasant! Seems like a good place for groups as they have big booth tables, you have to try the a5 wagyu!

Hummingbird Cocktail

Blue Ribbon is a must-visit every time I'm at The Cosmopolitan--it never disappoints! One of my go-to comfort dishes here is their French Onion Soup. Unlike the usual heavy brown broth, theirs is a clear broth version that's packed with flavor. So unique and honestly one of the best I've had. We went all in and ordered the rarest prime rib they had--and wow. Tender, flavorful, and just the right portion for one. We also tried the oysters--fresh, clean, and zero fishy smell (the way oysters should be!). For the kids, we ordered a simple butter noodle, and they served it with a side of freshly grated Parmesan--such a nice touch! But the real star of the show? The Banana Split. It's made with fresh, quality ingredients that had us scraping the bowl. No lie--this is my spot for the best banana split in Vegas! Our server Ashley was lovely--attentive and helpful, making sure we had a great experience from start to finish. The ambiance is low-lit and cozy, perfect for date night or a chill meal with family.

' Reviews Blue Ribbon ... We decided to make reservations at Blue Ribbon prior to a concert at the Cosmo. What a great experience!!! Our waiter Stephen was so kind and genuine, we will definitely be back to ask for him by name! The atmosphere was classy and inviting. The menu was an eclectic mix of fresh seafood and southern comforts like fried chicken. We opted for two fresh oysters to start our dining experience that left us wanting to come back to order more! Three sauce options assured any guest would find something they prefer. Cocktail, shallot/vinegar, and a cilantro heavy pico of sorts. Beef tartare was so fresh and delicious served with fresh potato chips and accoutrements. 2 things that I ended up wanting with this was a runny yolk, and more shallots/capers to have enough for every constructed bite. Stephen suggested the oyster Rockefeller and it did not disappoint!!! Creamy, spinachy, gooey deliciousness that was enjoyed even more with the yummy sourdough that was brought to the table. I LOVE a good bone marrow. This was 3 roasted bones served with oxtail marmalade and thick cut bread perfectly toasted. I realize this is an OG recipe for the restaurant. It was delish. However, this bone marrow lovin' gal thought that the wonderfully umami and sweet gravy and too thick cut toast overwhelmed the delicate creamy marrow experience. The sangria was perfect, the mule was cucumbery and refreshing. The service was divine.

Chefs table, dining hall

I've dined at Blue Ribbon twice and both times it was a great dining experience. Customer service is immaculate Food (see pics) were delicious. Not shown is filet mignon cut to see cook on meat. I asked for medium rare and it was closer to medium but my friends came out medium rare which was a NY strip steak. The dining hall is really nice and intimate. There is a bar up front which was nice. Lots of people were having drinks at the bar. Prices were $$$ It's at the Cosmopolitan Hotel which is my fave and on the 3rd floor. Love the vibe there and I'll be dining there again.

Bread pudding
Anja L.

I'm a sucker for Old Fashioneds and this place delivered. It also delivered a fantastic plate of baked oysters. The oysters were so good, I forgot to put the hot sauce on them before wolfing them all half dozen down! I ordered a wedge salad as well (guilty for not having any veggies that day) and decided I wanted a buffalo-wing salad instead and poured the habanero-carrot sauce on the creamy blue cheese. It was an ok salad before but now it was good. Bread pudding dessert wasn't anything to call home about but my server was good and the ambiance was right. Next time, more drinks and more baked oysters and maybe the chicken wings too. The guy next to me ordered the wings and I was jealous

Braised short rib
Stacey A.

Yes, yes and yes. Located in the Cosmopolitan hotel, easy to access. I believe it's on level 2. Casual to dressy attire. Easily accommodates groups. My husband and I were on a business trip hanging out and used Yelp to find a restaurant with seafood. Service was outstanding. I wish I remembered our servers name. The manager also checked on us multiple times and even cleared plates from our table. Cozy feel. All of the tables have cozy seating almost a booth feel. Our servers told us they are known for their bucket of wings. Just get them. Don't even ask. Just get them and thank me later. I'm drooling right now. Three huge flats, three huge crispy drums, you WILL lick your fingers unapologetically. Midweek we did not need a reservation but they were pretty busy. We didn't drive so I'm not sure about parking. I enjoyed my lamb chops but I'd come back for the bucket of wings. Seriously.

grilled salmon
Nylah W.

Service is outstanding, waiters are very attentive and they really care about what will compliment your taste. We ordered various things but what stood out was the Miso baked clams, so delicious! I was so happy with my steak frites, my mom loved her summer prix menu, and my dad always orders their fried chicken. The low lighting and comfy seats make the environment so fun with your loved ones! Also really good music.

Steak tartare
Tan P.

This is a gem inside the Cosmo. It's a classy and beautiful bar and restaurant, but not as busy as its neighboring restaurants in the Cosmo. I came here during happy hour and ordered from the bar. If you are going solo, I recommend ordering from their happy hour because the portions are just right for one person. What was memorable? Their crème brûlée, it was balanced and satisfied my sweet tooth. Pair it up with a dessert wine or Old Fashion.

My app oysters and shrimp
Leanne C.

Tim was our server last night-Amazing!! everyone who works there is so on top of everything. They move like a well oiled machine. Maddy & I did the prix fixe menu which is a great option to try multiple things. I liked everything we ordered and will go back. See my pics

Oyster Rockefeller
May W.

The food was very good the service was excellent and the Ambience was like a nice steakhouse. We orderd the Rockefeller oyster. The server gave me a warm towel to clean our hands, constantly refilled our water, and asked us if we needed anything else

They don't really have a dress code, but I would suggest business casual

Do they have a happy hour? And if so what time?

Happy Hour is currently running from 5pm to 7pm everyday. Enjoy!

Will I be over dressed in a sext, long dress with high cut slits? Kind of a silly question but My husband and I are looking for a nice, romantic type restaurant.

No you'll be fine. Some tables are more romantic than others so make sure your reservation is noted that you'd like a romantic table perhaps a booth in the back. It's Vegas so anything goes. I have eaten there over a dozen times and sometimes I've…

We made a 12PM reservation through the website and I mentioned it was our anniversary. When we arrived at the restaurant, we were greeted right away by a friendly hostess and seated at a nice corner table with a "Happy Anniversary" card signed by a few employees and fresh rose petals! It was so thoughtful and sweet. Our waiter was Rufio and he provided exceptional customer service! He was friendly, helpful, and on top of it. For lunch we had the halibut tacos, clam chowder, and Caesar salads. Everything was delicious! Rufio surprised us with an anniversary dessert that was outstanding! Three different warm cookies topped with vanilla ice cream and a seahorse sugar cookie on top of that. It was so tasty and memorable! These efforts for our anniversary really made our lunch special. 10/10, highly recommend!

The chef made some vegan sushi and offered a trifecta of sorbet - blackberry, mango, and coconut (which was the group favorite). The service was great and the vegan food was good. It is hard to find good vegan options on the strip. Just a note to be cautious if you have allergies. I'm allergic to soy and they gave me meals with soy sauce. It all worked out in the end and I appreciate the team for facilitating, especially since it is a big restaurant and they have a lot going on in the kitchen. I'd come back for the vegan sushi any day!

I did my homework before this visit, so I knew exactly what I wanted. I walked in solo around 3:45…read morewithout a reservation and was seated right away. I got lucky, though I wouldn't leave it to chance, especially with a larger party. The service was friendly and attentive from start to finish, from the host to the busser to the server. I was seated outside, which made for great people-watching. I started with the calamari, then moved on to the wedge salad and the seafood platter. Calamari: Amazing. It was fried to a crisp, well-seasoned exterior while the inside stayed tender and chewy, never greasy. I loved the mix of tentacles and rings, and the cocktail sauce and aioli were spot-on. Wedge salad: The kitchen cut it up for me, so every forkful was a perfect bite. The vinaigrette complemented the blue cheese dressing nicely. Seafood platter: The star of the night. It came with four large chargrilled shrimp, a lobster tail, and sautéed scallops. Everything tasted fresh, and the chargrilling was fantastic. The scallops were properly cooked, but if you prefer a firmer texture, you'll want to tell your server. The portions are generous, too. I had enough for a full meal the next day. This is now my favorite restaurant in Vegas. I'll definitely be back!

Our server Pablo (Paulo?) was amazing. We had a huge bachelor and bachelorette party of 18 people…read moreand he was so attentive. The service was amazing - food came out fast and there was no lag between courses. If you have a huge group of people I would definitely recommend doing it at Joe's - it was really easy to work with their team to set the menu and figure everything out. We originally had 19 people, but last minute somebody couldn't make it. They still charged us for 19 people, so we asked if we could get the meal to go since we paid for it and they were accommodating. The only thing was that the food was so salty. The steak was almost inedible because of how salty it was. The Caesar salad was incredibly salty too. The appetizers were great though - the calamari and shrimp de jonghe were highlights.

We didn't really have definite plans while in town however we knew we had to go to the oyster bar at palace station!!! When we got there, we were pleasantly surprised with a short 30 minute wait!!! If you know, you know - the wait can most times be over an hour and even up to 4 hours! So we were delighted to wait 30 minutes! We all had some variation of the gumbo! I had the house gumbo with crab, shrimp, lobster, sausage and light okra. As per usual, it was outstanding! The female server - can't remember her name, was such a pleasure to talk to. Steve made out gumbo and he made sure to make it just right and it was piping hot when he served it. We met a nice Father and Son - who said they also eat at the bar every time they come to Vegas. My sister mentioned that we were in town to celebrate my birthday and the father kindly took care of my bill.

It's literally a bar, but it's a pretty cool setup. I ordered a Paloma and it was really, really good. Service was okay, especially considering how busy they were and the limited seating. One thing I appreciated was that even with people waiting, they didn't make us feel rushed to eat and get out. Now the food? Straight BOMB. I'm used to ordering seafood gumbo or a pan roast with lobster and having to search for the actual seafood. Not here! They give you big, beautiful pieces of seafood, and the portions are huge. We made the mistake of ordering our own instead of paying attention to the people around us because we definitely could've shared. And a warning about the oysters: they are HUMONGOUS. Seriously, keep that in mind when deciding how many to order. Between the generous portions, quality seafood, and that Paloma, I can definitely see why there's always a line. Four stars for me!
