text: Well I came to yelp for help before booking my Christmas dinner this year in Vegas.  Maybe it was because it was Christmas but I was severely underwhelmed by this place.  The decor is very nice, very trendy chic but personally I prefer my steakhouses a bit more cozy.  There are some booths in the middle of the restaurant but the tables around the edges of the rooms aren't big enough for the plates.\nWe had:\n\nCaesar salad: Made table side with the dressing made from scratch.  it was ok and a portion big enough for 2 as an appetizer - very garlicky though\nFois gras something something: meh... served with caramelized apples.  the presentation was pretty but the taste was so so and definitely didn't justify the price tag.  \n\nPetit filet: good but not that hot when it arrived\nRib eye: decidedly average, a bit sinewy\nMashed potatoes: these were good \nCharred broccoli: good flavor but a bit chewy\nFlan: this was disappointing, it was really dense not light like I was expecting.\n\nBut the bread served before the appetizers was great! hahaha...\n\nThe service was just ok too, the wine waiter didn't seem to be able to recommend anything for my pallet and the best of the bunch was the guy that filled up our water glasses!  \n\nGenerally, this place seemed just a tad too happy with itself.  But I guess that's an easy trap to fall into in Vegas.  Next time I'll go back to Hugo's Cellar, it's worth the trip downtown.
