5/5I attended a Tuesday night wine tasting. We were the only ones there. The bartender/wine guy was extremely knowledgable and took very good care of us. The wine tasting is an excellent value and I plan to go once a month.

4/5Sat outside for drinks / dessert. One server refused to access the peanut butter ice creme thing, but another one betrayed her. Tarts ok. Drinks all right.
Best part is watching the Main street gong show. About midnight some girl driving a white SLK tries to U-turn to the valet stand on the south side of the street. Turn radius too big, so POW - front end right in to the sidewalk. She and her matching pneumatically D cupped friend don't bother to rectify the situation, just get out and hand the keys off. The real icing was the personalized license plate "BabyGirl." I guess daddy's not too attached to his cars.

3/5I have eaten here recently, 5/20/08. The full gamut, drinks (2 glasses of wine - $9 Reisling; $15 Cab) & appetizers to dessert. The food is good, it's far from fabulous. I had the sirloin steak ($38), it was a nice, hearty portion, good cut, perfectly medium rare, but the marrow flan that came is well, disgusting (I'd wanted to take it home for my dog, but they wouldn't let me. And I love pate, foie gras and would beg to eat the fat from her daddy's steak. But marrow flan. Ew. Really) and there no need for a cabernet reduction sauce with my meat. I'm from the Midwest (Chicago, the land of the chophouse) so if its a good cut, aged well, cooked well, that's all you need! Also had ordered pomme puree mashed potatoes in non-pretentious-speak supposedly, it was big enough for two. Not. It was pretty skimpy portion with the consistency of baby food. Me and my dining partner still ate it of course. When dinner for two is $200+ and worth it, I don't mind paying at all, but overpaying for OK food is one of the most annoying things. The other courses really weren't worth talking about. I would skip this place for dinner. Maybe just sit at the bar. It's a very pretentious place though, I walked in wearing jeans. Everyone else was dressed up in suits & ties. I didn't feel remotely self-conscious because so what, I've got money, but I won't be returning because I was not really impressed with the food. It is a lovely dining room, with an envious wine room. But I go to restaurants to eat well. Not appear well heeled.

3/5Well, this can only be a partial review because I've only been in the bar area and had the sliders.
Good for bar food...but it's still BAR FOOD.
Wine selection is done on a electronic tablet- rather novel. Very limited by the glass slection. Just ok.
Going to have to come back for the "sit down" version.
Great atmosphere but much smaller than expected after the Vegas location.
We'll see.
