"Located inside Harrah’s Las Vegas, this sleek new dining room feels stylish and almost intimate: slate-gray walls, cream-colored furnishings, copper accents, metallic beaded curtains for booth privacy, a planter for greenery, and a large mixed-media portrait above the seafood counter; the restaurant seats 244 across smaller dining areas in a windowless casino setting. The menu is framed as a culinary journey inspired by global travels but skews American and British, with highlights including a bright jumbo lump crab cake, layered Eton Mess, a roasted grape flatbread with tangy blue cheese and balsamic glaze, and the chef’s signature beef Wellington. There are both approachable price points and high-end options aimed at convention and celebrity crowds — described as “affordable glam” — such as a $38.95 crispy salmon with purple cauliflower purée, an indulgent $189.95 seafood tower, and a raw bar for splurges like crab legs. Standout preparations called out by the chef and culinary leadership include a chili-garlic-soy–marinated tuna tartare served with a touch of sour cream, a beef carpaccio paired with horseradish panna cotta, and an onion soup whose crispy crouton protects tender oxtail and caramelized onions; the restaurant began service with a November soft opening and opened reservations online later that month." - Janna Karel
