Fodor's Expert Review Jean-Georges Steakhouse at ARIA
This steak house, named for famed chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, serves up a modern spin on the traditional meat and potatoes. To wit: dishes such as the soy-glazed short rib with apple and rosemary and cheeseburger with truffle mayo and brie, plus the full component of beef including tomahawk rib eyes, Chateaubriand, and porterhouse steaks. A tasting menu is available as well as the à la carte list. The restaurant also spotlights an extensive bar program that focuses on classic cocktails. During particularly busy weekends, look for pros on break from the nearby poker room; "J.G.," as it's known, has reportedly become one of the favorites of players such as Daniel Negreanu, Phil Ivey, and Phil Hellmuth.
