Gordon Ramsey Pub & Grill

Birthdays mean one thing around here:  Food.  One thing that is not commonly found on menus is the classic Beef Wellington.  It is hard to make because you have to bake the filet inside a pastry sheet where you cant poke or prod it to tell how done it is.  Chef Gordon Ramsey is famous for this and we happen to have 4 of his restaurants in town.  (along with all the other FoodTV personalities)

The Pub and Grill is inside the wonderful Caesars complex (my favorite casino).  The food and service was good, but the bill did reflect that.  Casinos are expensive and you are paying for Gordon’s name.

Overall we would have to agree that the Beef Wellington across the street at the Paris Eiffel Tower was better in looks, taste, size, and sides.  Plus you can watch the Bellagio fountains.  Thank you for a fun birthday evening

French Onion Soup: Very good. Not very hot, but good flavor balance
Lobster Shrimp Roll: They added lemon and cucumber to cut the heavy fattiness. Very good.
Beef Wellington: This was very rare not medium rare as specified. Gordon would be screaming at the cooks if he saw this. Good but could have used some more salt / seasoning. The wine demi was more like a brown gravy than a wine reduction.
Sticky Toffee Pudding: Very good
