After a weekend at Caesar's Palace with a good buddy and his gf's family & friends. A weekend that included poolside cabanas, drinking and lots of gambling. Well, I didn't do any drinking but everyone else did more than make up for my shortcomings in that category! Anyways, the finale night dinner on Sunday found us here.\nIt was probably a good thing we had a reservation. The place was packed and I heard it was booked fairly solid for this particular weekend. It's located across from Nobu and resides in the spot Nero's used to occupy I believe. The restaurant consists of dimmed lights and a classy looking decor. Prices seemed about on par for a steakhouse on the Strip. If I remember correctly, Old Homestead originates from New York.\nThe bread basket is crazy, for starters. Loaded basket. Pretzel bread, mini dinner roll with coarse salt on top, crusty mini french roll and bacon, asiago & cheddar muffin. My buddy asked for extra butter and I guess they remembered because on our second bread basket we got these two massive blocks of butter along with it.\nOur waiter was very friendly and helpful. Drinks were filled constantly and we were checked on a few times to see if we needed anything else.\nI had the 16oz filet mignon on the bone. Cooked and seasoned perfectly. We shared sides of potato gnocchi with truffle butter, asparagus & mushrooms. Loved the asparagus and the gnocchi. The gnocchi was so rich with the truffle butter. For our party of five. We were suggested that three sides would be enough since the portions are fairly large. When we saw them, they didn't seem that 'large'. We probably could have gone with four, or even five and been ok. Considering we demolished the sides we had ordered.\nSuffice to say we all left full and satisfied. Anything less would be a disappointment when you pay this much for good food. Solid 4 stars.
