text: UPDATED REVIEW marked down to starsnnWe had such a great experience here during the grand opening that we decided to go back a week later with a friend visiting from out of town The experience was not as great Here is the low downnnHOST STAFF CluelessnWe made reservations a few days in advance and asked to sit with our server from our first visit On the night of our dinner we arrived minutes early to see plenty of open tables but the hostess was absolutely clueless on what to do with us Uh seat us maybe We gave her a break and decided to sit in the lounge for a drink while she sorted it out but after minutes minutes after our reservation we never got approached about our table except for the wrong name Are you Mr Kluss and so we had to go back up to the stand to find out what was going on with the delay The hostess seemed like she was making an excuse up similar to lost homework judging from her age as to why our table still was not ready and so we ended up having to talk to another hostess to get it right When they finally went to sit us down it was not in the servers area we had twice requested once during our reservation a week before and once when we arrived When we let her know of the mistake the hostess seating us a different one made some rude remark about how messed up things were here and sat us down in the section we requested Not a good teeoff to a dinner for nnDINNER Too slow and with mistakesnThe best part of dinner was the demeanor from or original server She was a real pro and as cool as we remembered the first time but seemed to be hamstrung by the slow kitchen service and a few lapses in attention to detail from there missing or slow items she had to notice and then retrieve I am no stranger to fine dining and a slow pace is nice but It took a good minutes just to get our apps that is too long Overall the food was just okay for as long as we waited and for the price I have been much more impressed at half a dozen other steakhouses in town The Palm Caesars Capital Grill Ruths Chriss Del Friscos Flemings etc Really surprised too that the cocktails were made so inconsistently in taste because how complicated is a cocktail It was so left to right that we had to keep saying something to the point that the server felt bad enough to finally bring us an extra right one for freennSUMMARYnLike the other reviewer our trouble started with the front host staff and unfortunately continued with slow service As native Las Vegans we like the Cosmo a lot as far as hotels go and may give STK another shot after we have tried the other restaurants at the hotel first The layout is great the decor the music and the overall vibe are solid too but as far as service goes and food that blows you away goes maybe they just have opening week issuesnnCaveat emptor
