text: I almost feel as if I know Gordon Ramsay after watching his endless parade of hit television programs in my living room The one constant I have learned about Gordon over the years would be his passion for perfection I thought I would finally get to experience a small slice of this during my long awaited visit to Gordon Ramsay Steak in Vegas last night but it did not quite happen that way nnYou see although the food was very good and the service was more than adequate a certain WOW factor was missingnnLets start with the atmosphere It does not much look like a steak house but rather a bold trendy neo modernistic pub I guess The ceiling was festooned with an enormous inyourface Union Jack whilst red glowing intestines dangled below to pass as a chandelier of some sort The music was much too loud for a fine dining type experience and the bare table look although trendy is just not proper for fine dining The iPad cocktail menu was right at home though and the eyecandy hostesses with back seam stockings were somewhat of a show on their own nnI got the impression the waitstaff were hired on merit of looks alone as they seemed a bit awkward and were quite literally tripping over oneanother They would almost certainly be more comfortable as models rather than order takers I also got the distinct impression they were trying a bit too hard to turn tables The first such clue was a stern admonishment that the Wellington would take quite a while coming out of the kitchen and it may be wise to make another selection The second clue would have been the removal of our cocktail glasses without the offering of a second round But I guess the kicker would have been the fact that when we did leave we had not gotten two or three steps away and actually bumped into the next guests as they were being ushered to sit down at our uncleaned and unset former tablennAll the food was probably just a tad undercooked which is actually fine by me but not so much for my guests I thought the taste temperature and presentation of the food was spot on Many will talk about the prices being to lofty but actually at this level price is dictated more on demand and this place certainly has plenty of that for now Gordon could probably hike the prices by another and still have sellout nights The bread served with dinner was probably the most enjoyable course There is a certain buttery spread with just a hint of cheese provided that has such a perfect taste texture and finish that it absolutely steals the show I was dissapointed to find the Alaskan Halibut was removed from the menu as I thought that would be one of the signature dishes Here is a free tip Gordon update that little fact on the website menu so blokes do not turn up wanting a go at the Halibut only to learn is has been d ok matennI still recommend a visit here though Not so much as a steak house to compete with the likes of Ruths Chris or Mortons but rather to experience the culture of trendy ambiance flavor and fashion that has been assembled here with just the right amount of pretentiousness to prove captivating
