Fodor's Review:

What's really unique (for Vegas) about this intimate spot a short drive southeast of the airport is the easygoing pace and unpretentious vibe contrasted with artful, creative contemporary cooking. The dining room is stark, perhaps to show off such colorful fare as goat cheese wontons with berry-basil butter, rack of lamb with pomegranate and black peppers, and a commendably seasoned Cajun New York steak. This place used to be something of a sleeper, but it's becoming better known, so book a couple of days ahead if you want to dine Thursday through Saturday.

Relaxed atmosphere, adventuresome food

Posted by DAPelfrey from Virginia on 6/10/08
We made reservations for a Monday night in early summer 2008, but didn't really need them. As indicated above, the restaurant is somewhat small and spare, but the food was wonderful and true to the name. A jalapeƱo watermelon salad was fiery and refreshing at the same time; the addition of grilled shrimp added a new dimension to the gaspacho; even the bread basket contained a more interesting selection than most restaurants. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will look for it again on my next visit.

what a surprise

You rated it high...but it was more than we expected. Service was friendly and very informative. The food was adventuresome...not shying away from spices. The polenta had a wonderful burn. Recommendations on entrees were right on. Worth the trip off of the strip. Easy to miss...but the best meal of the week!
