“Fabulous Food & Service”

Rosemary's Restaurant

5 of 5 stars

7/7 found this review helpful

It was with some trepidation that we went to Rosemary’s; how could it possibly live up to all the hype on TA? Well, it did. I had never been before and have been to many other fine dining restaurants and I would rate Rosemary’s in the top ten of all time. This is based on the food, variety, presentation, service and value for money (only drawback is it’s located in a strip mall) away from the Strip. We had reservations for my birthday at 6:30, unfortunately we were 20 minutes late. I apologized for our tardiness, but did not receive attitude and was seated within minutes, even though it was packed.

Started off with an amuse bouche of whitefish tartare sandwiched between thin slices of English cucumber-very refreshing. I had the best bloody Mary ever (fresh zippy horseradish) and my husband over dinner sampled 3 different beers: Grolsch (Dutch), Pilsner Urquell (Czech) and Stella Artois (Belgium). We each had the trio seafood sample appetizer: grilled shrimp with intense, smoky BBQ sauce with cold slaw, salmon tartare, crab cake croquet delicately coated with panko breadcrumbs, fried and set atop a light creamy dill dressing over cucumber salad. The service was attentive, impeccible without being intrusive.

We shared the Parmesan cheese twice baked soufflé. The dinner was accompanied by fresh potato bread rolls and sweet nut/chocolate roll. The later seemed more like dessert bread so skipped that. Finished off the dinner by sharing the apple tart & cinnamon ice cream – only wish that they’d provided a bit more of the lovely ice cream to match the tart.

Oh, the final touch was the presentation of chocolate and peanut butter bon- bons – could only manage a nibble of the chocolate one. I would definitely make a return visit, even it we don’t go Wednesday (Ladies half off night) - our total out the door cost was $90.

“Fantastic dining with no pretentious servers”

Rosemary's is right up your alley if you're a serious foodie and you like a place that has great service without a lot of snobbery.

It's off the beaten path -- in a strip shopping center away from the Strip. It doesn't look like much from the outside, admittedly. However, once we got inside, I loved the ambience. It's a friendly, approachable, attractive restaurant that features the art of local artists on its walls. The service was attentive but not invasive. We felt that the two servers who attended to our needs had the perfect pace for moving us along from appetizer to dessert in a leisurely way that allowed us to really enjoy the moment.

My date and I shared a fantastic appetizer sampler (well prepared), and then he enjoyed the phenomenal striped bass dish, while I had the scallops dish. The striped bass explodes with bold cajun flavor, while the scallops is more understated and allows the fresh seafood to take the leading role. Both were delicious -- but I would order the striped bass if I return, as I'm a spicy food fan. For dessert, my date ordered the sorbet trio -- fresh and delicious. And each diner gets a little sample surprise appetizer dish to get things going at the start, as well as a small dessert sampler at the end.

It was an A+ dining night in a city chock full of amazing restaurants.

The only tip I can offer is that if you take a cab there, you may wish to allow about 15 minutes for a cab to later come pick you up. The restaurant is far enough away from the usual tourist haunts that it takes a while to get a cab to come out there. Even with the cab hassles, it's well worth it to check out Rosemary's.

“Wonderful Lunch!”

3/3 found this review helpful

After reading all the great reviews, my husband and I decided to try this restaurant. As suggested, we printed out the $20 price fixe coupon on the restaurant's web site. By far, this is the best deal in Vegas! We had a wonderful, three course meal for $20 each. Be forewarned, they are serious about presenting the coupon at the beginning of the meal. I felt somewhat awkward about doing this, thinking this might negatively impact our experience (sometimes wait staff are haughty about these things)...I am happy to report that the service was attentive and friendly, without being too intrusive.

My husband had the shrimp as an appetizer and I had the caeser salad. We followed this with the duck and steak entrees. All were perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. For desert, I had the lemon tart and my husband had bread pudding. Both of us commented that the portions were just right, the food was presented artfully and with great care.

We drove from the Flamingo to this restaurant...it took about 20 minutes and was well worth the drive. I would encourage people to try it, especially the lunch special.

“Food to die for!”

2/2 found this review helpful

Having learnt about Rosemary's on this website and read the glowing reviews, I decided to book on the strength of this. We were not to be disappointed. The only awful thing about the evening was our taxi driver's attempts to kill us! (but still worth a taxi ride all the same).

Whilst a restaurant lives and dies on the strength of it's quality of food, the service provided from all the team was first rate, they were attentive, friendly and helpful without any pretentions.

As appetizers I had the Hugo's Texas BBQ Shrimp and my wife had the Salmon Tartar. Both were excellent. I would highly the Shrimp. For our entrees we had the Striped Bass and the Yellowfin Tuna au Poivre. The striped bass just melted in your mouth and was cooked to perfection. Whilst we were both pretty full we dared to continue on and go for a dessert. I had read how good the Lemon Ice Box Pie was, and was not to be let down. It was the best possible finish to an outstanding meal.

Considering we both had a full three courses, coffee and bottle of wine we were pleasantly surprised with the fact it hadn't broken $150 (before tip). The quality of the food, service and overall experience made it extremely good value for money. I would recommend it highly. Whilst it is a 20 minute taxi ride (15 if you are going at break-neck speed!) it was good to get away from the strip for an evening.

“Wonderful restaurant...BUT”

Rosemary's Restaurant

3/8 found this review helpful

I'll explain my 'BUT'......Overall I think this is a good restaurant. The overwhelmingly positive reviews convinced me that this would be a good place for treating our friends/business associates to dinner. It started out poorly. Although we had reservations, we had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. This was unacceptable, especially because we had wanted this to be a special dinner for our friends. To their credit, however, they remembered that we had a gluten-free person dining with us, so when they brought us a complimentary appetizer morsel to whet our palate, they brought her something different that adhered to her dietary requirements. It then took FOREVER for our waiter to take our order. They were busy, but I'm sure they're ALWAYS busy! There were also a couple of larger groups, and the noise level was disturbing, as we were seated next to them. The waiter did apologize for his inattentiveness, but at a place like this we found it to be unacceptable. He seemed preoccupied the entire evening and did not give us the attention we expected. And I might add that I don't consider us to be unreasonable in our expectations in this regard. Once the food arrived, however, all was forgiven. The scallops were the best I've ever eaten.......perfectly cooked and attractively presented. My husband's steak was also delicious, as were the salads. The dessert selections were excellent. I opted for the flourless chocolate cake, and much to my surprise I found it TOO rich! I didn't think it was possible for chocolate to be too rich. :) It was delicious, but I would definitely recommend splitting it. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant. I hope our experience is an anomaly because Rosemary's has too much going for it to not offer the best of service and attention to its customers.
