A: We had a few cocktails here during a rained-out event they put on with the Young Affiliates of the Mint Museum. The venue was very trendy and relaxing. I enjoyed the furniture and thought it was a great spot to grab a nice glass of wine or a cocktail. You're in such a fabulous location in the middle of everything and I can imagine the view is quite nice when it isn't so crowded. I am not sure if they were solely in charge of food, but my one complaint is that it was very sparse at an event featuring quite a bit of wine directly after work. The event flyer specifically mentioned food so that was a bit of a let down as I was definitely hungry towards the end. Overall they handled the rain situation smoothly so they get kudo's for that!

Q: negative

A: while the price is appealing, not much else is. the rolls are not original or particularly well executed, they use too much rice and the seaweed paper is chewy, the fish was not fresh but tasted OK. maybe its a culture clash - myself being from California, where I can find a better sushi place by sneezing onto my GPS.

A: One of my favorite buffets! I LOVE the oriental station with the mini takeout boxes of noodles!!!! Soso cute and tasty. I really enjoyed the Angry mac and cheese along with their asparagus salad. I tried almost everything in this buffet and they were worth coming back for. Also, the bone marrow was gross. It's not fair for me to compare it to the ones they serve at Wolfgang Puck's Cut, but this just had an unsavory texture, which was bland and chewy. Overall the Wicked Spoon has done an incredible job and I would absolutely return.

Q: negative

A:
- disappointing ambiance (a bit "mall" food court -like) - poor service from hostesses - all around a disappointing experience At the suggestion of a friend, I booked this restaurant to celebrate a friend's 40th bday. We thought the ambiance was disappointing -- it felt a little exposed and like a mall food court. Despite our open table reservation, there was No table ready for us. The hostesses were obviously holding a table for some VIP group and wouldn't seat us there even though it was sitting empty and we were on-time for our reservation. The hostesses were rude. We could tell they were talking about us after we complained about being seated in the bar (felt like being in the middle of a mall food court!) Our waiter was wonderful, but the hostesses and bartenders all seemed cranky/unhappy. The food was good, but not exceptional. There are a lot of great restaurants in vegas and I just cannot recommend this one. If however you find yourself there, we loved the mushrooms, the traditional potato/egg dish, both the asparagus and the potatoes in maresco sauce. My absolute favorite was the flank steak-- fantastic. My advice? Keep looking and eat somewhere else!
