Went there this past Thursday with my wife for one of her birthday dinners...BEST MEAL OF THE WEEKEND (vs. L'Atelier and Picasso)!!! And probably the best meal I've had in the past 5 years. It was insane because we were the only people there...opened up on Thursday because of our request. Chef Hiro worked alone while we chit-chatted with him and the maitre'd about food, inspiration, the restaurant biz, vegas, and hotels. Each night's menu is variable with some guidance on the progression of the dishes/savoriness. The night was capped with the pastry chef introducing his chocolate plate, fruit plate (separate courses), and homemade confections.\n\nMost memorable:\nUni barley risotto with duck thigh confit and shitakes, topped with a generous dollop of fresh uni. The uni richness replaces the mundane use of foie gras (don't get me wrong...I love foie gras, but I love culinary whimsy). It was such a WONDERFUL surprise...a briny richness.\n\nA True MUST GO!!!!
