As the first quarter careens towards its close, our staff thought it was time to take stock of Las Vegas’s dining scene and share a summary of our recent experiences.
And by “recent experiences” we mean the scenes of the crimes at some recent restaurants….along with the usual gossip, gall and gallivanting for which we are known.
Let’s start with the bad news first, shall we? Continue reading “Just Thought You’d Like to Know…the State of the Vegas Dining Scene”
ELV note: In keeping with our efforts to keep this website as tasty as ever, the staff at Eating Las Vegas has decided to try something new in the restaurant reviewing biz, to wit – having two critics analyze the same meal from their disparate viewpoints, the better to have you devour and delectate their various disseminations. Given his seniority, Mr. Curtas shall be the first to weigh in, followed by young Wilburn, with whom he shared a memorable repast in the past week.

“How can a restaurant that’s so good be so under the radar?” is the question I kept asking myself throughout my tasting menu at Pinot Brasserie. Then I realized I was to blame….along with Joachim Splichal.

Whatever “private event” these two were hostessing at Pinot Brasserie mattered not to Eating Las Vegas. One look at their sign, and their bountiful amounts of professionalism, had him signing up faster than Al Mancini at a Suicide Girls website.
When ([politely) told he couldn’t attend the private function, he was undaunted (as well as unwilling to leave the hostess stand), and immediately made plans to return the next day for his first visit in over nine years!
To his pleasant surprise, he discovered that the beauty of this restaurant doesn’t end at said hostess stand. For his further ruminations on his meal, and the charms of the staff at this tried and true Venetian war horse, you will have to tune in later this week.
In the meantime, ELV’s newest protege will leave you to ruminate on the charms of Arpy* (l) and Angelia** (r).
