Redwood - Las Vegas

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's a true hidden gem. The service and food were both amazing. I highly recommend asking for Beatrice, as she was awesome!

My experience at this restaurant was much better than I anticipated. I initially saw a picture online and thought it looked decent, but upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was really nice, and the staff were exceptionally friendly. The food was absolutely delicious, and I'm definitely planning to return. Considering it's a steakhouse, the prices were also very reasonable. Thank you to the team! It made for a very successful 16th-anniversary celebration.

We discovered this restaurant while searching on Google and are extremely happy we decided to try it. Our waitress, Donna, was incredibly sweet and genuinely excited to serve us. She provided detailed recommendations for food and drinks, and even shared a brief history of the hotel/casino. The food was phenomenal. We were impressed by the great deal on their anniversary wine for $21 a bottle, which is rare for a fantastic wine at a Vegas steakhouse. We both enjoyed the maui onion soup, a delicious and unique twist on French onion soup. I had the NY strip, which was a very generous portion, likely closer to 20oz than 16oz, and cooked to perfection. My wife loved her lobster tail. We finished with the creme brulee, which was absolutely perfect in temperature and firmness. It was an amazing dinner, and we would love to return! It's a somewhat hidden gem due to limited advertising, relying mostly on word-of-mouth and Google recommendations, but it's absolutely worth the stop!

After checking in, I explored the casino for a dinner spot. Aloha Specialties, a popular plate lunch place, was too casual for me. I bypassed the closed California Noodle House and Market Street Café, seeking drinks and a substantial meal. This led me to Redwood, as I was too tired to leave the property. The restaurant features a modern steakhouse decor with subdued lighting, grey/green walls, dark wood beams, and a multi-colored carpet. I ordered a Hendricks gin & tonic ($14), a warm Spinach Salad ($15), Short Rib Pappardelle ($39), and a glass of Faust Cabernet Sauvignon ($18). The service was quite leisurely, which I found to be a negative as I dislike waiting. On a positive note, my gin & tonic was served with the correct cucumber slices, a detail many places miss. The Spinach Salad was fine, though its enormous portion size meant I only consumed half. My entrée, the Short Rib Pappardelle, wasn't quite what I expected. Large chunks of short rib in a creamy sauce, reminiscent of Beef Stroganoff, were served with two pieces of buttered/cheese toast. Again, the portion was excessively large, and I would have preferred a marinara sauce. I ate most of the pasta but left most of the short rib, finding it too much like stew meat for my palate. I requested a coffee to go and left feeling somewhat unsatisfied. Other diners seemed to be enjoying themselves, suggesting my experience might have been influenced by my mood due to a canceled flight. The total bill was $93. 20, plus a $20 tip for a meal that was just okay.

My experience at the restaurant was a mix of delightful and slightly disappointing. The mac-n-cheese was absolutely amazing! The service was also great, with the staff being attentive and friendly. However, the lamb chops were a good size but unfortunately cooked rare, which wasn't to my preference. I am still planning to go back and reorder, hoping to try other dishes and perhaps get the lamb chops cooked differently.
