Problem: Okay so where to start. The worse than any local steakhouse filet mignon or the 130 bucks we dropped per person here for dinner. We came based on my friends' recommendation. One of the guys with us likes the place apparently. I have to disagree. The service is great, as should be expected since we're grossly overpaying for it but the main course was barely edible for me. So the main course here comes basically by itself and starters and everything else is separate. Sadly, the best part of the meal for me was the starter! I ordered this shrimp tamale that was actually good. For the main course, I had the filet mignon. I ordered it medium rare and it came out basically straight off the cow. It was just way too rare for my taste and it has this sauce on it that I did not like. I only ate about half of it and left the rest. I figure if you go to a restaurant with a celebrity chef, I should be coming out of the place wanting to write about it on Yelp! for good reasons. My disappointment in the meal alone renders this a 2 star place. The price I had to pay for the meal makes it a 1 star restaurant. Next time I'm going to go get a bowl of Pho down by Chinatown because it is better than this!

Problem: The hubs and I spent a week in Vegas in October 2012. With so many options in LV, we were looking forward to some amazing food and a great time. For the most part we were not disappointed, until we went to Gordon Ramsay Steak on our last evening in town. We arrived at the restaurant 15 minutes prior to our 9pm reservation (which we had made 2 months in advance). The hostess didn't bother to look up from her book when we checked in with her. She rudely pointed out that we were early and that we'd be seated at our reservation time. We proceeded to the bar where we had a few beers. Our bartender was very warm and attentive (the only good part of the visit). While at the bar we watched many couples/groups come in after us that were seated after a minimal wait. At 9:30 I checked in with the hostess again. She once again did not look up from her book and simply told me we'd be seated once our table was ready. At 9:45 we had still not been seated (again, our reservation was for 9pm). I can certainly understand a wait at a restaurant, but I didn't appreciate that everyone around us was being seated and we were not. We asked the bartender to close our tab and we were prepared to leave. However, she went and spoke to the hostess and all of a sudden our table was ready. We contemplated leaving anyway, but decided to stay. We were seated upstairs and, to my surprise, there were many empty tables. Once seated it took our server another 20 minutes to show up. Before placing our order my husband mentioned having a food allergy. To be clear, he never asks for a plate to be modified, he simply asks if the dish he is ordering is safe for him to eat, so that otherwise he can order something else. The server seemed extremely annoyed that he had to deal with this. At the end of the day my husband had a filet and i had the short ribs. My husband was impressed with his meal, but my short ribs were very gristly. Unfortunately though, it really wouldn't have mattered if the food had been mind-blowing. Poor service is just unacceptable to me, especially at an expensive restaurant. We just wanted to get out of there, so we finished our meals and left, no dessert. We had been so excited to eat at Gordon Ramsay Steak, I wish it had been different. We were treated like we should have been grateful to eat there. We will not be going back. Too many great options in LV to put up with this nonsense.

Problem: It was my first visit. All my co workers have been talking about this place....with that said, ..........walking up to this establishment is not impressive. Please do not take a 1st date here. All I have heard is about the expansion..and thank goodness!! This place is dark, the staff look like they are all on tour of some skating boarding ESPN tour in town. BUT!!!! The staff (who look like skateboarders) were great! Each one of them so friendly, polite and very attentive. Beer selection-par none...excellent selection on tab. The expansion section is inviting for large groups...which was perfect for our work HH. MENU- as my friend would say......UNBELIEVABLE! I took home a Carne Asada concoction and it was sooooo good. The calzone idea is great! When you can come up with creative stuffing you can't go wrong. Ambiance 3 ..too dark for me Staff 5+ -very friendly, attentive & polite Food 5+- the calzone spin -UNBELIEVABLE...so good. even take home. Beer 5 -great selection on tab......can't get that everywhere.
