This is a hard review. Full disclosure: The reason these reviews for this location vary from 1 to 5 is because it's located in a casino. Chances are, if you are eating here, you are using a comp or are getting a very big discount to do so.
That being said, I'm going to be honest: This place tries very hard to be something it simply is not. I've eaten at nice steakhouses. Three Forks, Pappa Bros., Bobs, etc. This wasn't that. This place tries to be every cliche though. We dressed nicely, only to find people in tshirts. We were brought a small sample of a pickled cucumber. It was ok. The breads, as most reviewers state, were beyond underwhelming. I wish instead of Jason D. Just replying back to these things, he'd DO SOMETHING to correct stuff. The bread is bland. Salt it. The butter too.
I ordered "colossal scallops" for $39. There were 4. Left ok at the pic. I'll give you that two were a good size. The other two....nope. But they were all cooked perfectly. But when a scallop costs $10, you want each one to be big. That was a bit disappointing. Also disappointing was the fact that you couldn't substitute risotto as a side. So I had to just pay $10 for a side of parm risotto and I'm not lying...it was the worst I've ever had. It was crunchy, not cooked properly and cold. Again Jason, look at the other reviews as this is a recurring theme. It lacked any flavor and was a huge bummer. I pointed it out to the waiter but he said it was the way risotto is supposed to be. What? Again, risotto should be firm, not crunchy. And not cold.
They do cliche things like palate cleansers and warm towels after dinner. Would I go back? Maybe, but only if management actually made changes. They need to work on temperature of food. Sides were cold. I should have been able to pay a reasonable up charge to switch my starch to risotto. Also, our server didn't even tell us the special. We only learned of it after when he told the nearby table about it. Not cool.
So the pros: The service was attentive. Even though he didn't take the risotto away when I told him it was crunchy and cold, he did keep our water filled and was nice. The scallops were cooked perfectly and tasted amazing.
Cons: It's annoying dressing up to go someplace nice and then seeing someone in a tshirt. Food is way overpriced, but most are comped anyway. Scallops weren't consistently sized, so I feel cheated. Risotto was awful and should have been taken off check because it wasn't eaten. Chef needs to learn how to season things.
Mostly...this place needs to read reviews and implement change. I'd recommend only coming here if you get paid to do so. read more
