Best Fine Cuts Restaurants in The Strip

We come back to this restaurant every time we come to Las Vegas. If you like seafood, this is the place for you. The selection of fresh oysters is endless. There's everything from clam chowder to whole lobster from the live tank. The favorite item on the menu is the cold platters that can be an appetizer or a whole meal for someone. Trust me when I tell you that this is no Red Lobster!

The restaurant is tucked away in a different part of the hotel, away from the casino and restaurant area which makes it a very quiet venue. The service was prompt, courteous, attentive, and friendly. You really feel like you are at a high=end, fine dining establishment. With all those positives, I can address the food. There are so many other fine dining establishments in Las Vegas that having tried this place, once was enough. Starting with the seafood tower, it was the skimpiest of all the seafood towers on offer. The items were small, too few, and bland. The ceasars salad split with my companions was very good, and so was the lobster bisque. My French Onion had the appearance of a cheese sandwich floating on the soup, but the soup itself was tasty. Two of us had the rack of lamb, cooked medium which my companions said was very good, but didn't differ from other racks of lamb at other less premium places. My friend and I both had the 16 ounce rib eye, both asked to be cooked to medium rare. Surely, medium rare should have some juice when cut, but ours didn't. My pal said it was ok, he'd eat his, but I sent mine back, only to have another cut slightly better but not medium rare at all. At this point, all the others were already half way through the meal so I simply did not make a fuss. And to note the rib eyes had the quality of supermarket meats, not a high end restaurant. The sides ordered were all very well executed, as was dessert. So all in all, for the prices charged, it did not fit my definition of value for money, since I have spent just as much elsewhere and walked away feeling it was a good value. This is Las Vegas and there are so many other venues that serve similar fare, and much better quality and value. One and done with Hawthorn Grill, am afraid.

good for dates,meals,birthdays.and family dinners.
