Cute little ladies greet you and off to a table. Staying at Paris and the ratings and flying in on a empty stomach said it was time to feed. Waitress had nice friendly manor. Drinks came quick and food took a bit longer than I would expect but not in any hurry so if your in a rush maybe not a good choice. Food came and what an expectation blower. Stack of onion rings, waffle fries, reg fries , burgers and an insane hotdog. First bite was a mind blower. Flavor was amazing and cooked to order. All fresh and hot. Each item was done with care and attention to its own flavor. As an example. The reg fries were hand cut and lightly seasoned where the waffle fries had a very spiced and heavier crucnch. The onion rings were beer battered and not greesy at all. The hot dog I was told was real good. My hamburger was great. In top 5 for sure. If you are looking for an outstanding burger in a sea of buffets this is the stop. Great job guys!!!!
Formerly part of Light Group, a location next to the nightclub no accident, it was shortly after Red Square Restaurant & Vodka Lounges transfer to Hakkasan that Christian Concepcion took over fresh from Portofino, the young Chef with time at noma under his belt reinventing a boring Steakhouse menu into something rooted in the traditions of Eastern Europe that still remains modern and accessible.Always something of an outlier in the Las Vegas culinary scene, its Vodka Lounge clearly an impetus to place a Restaurant themed on the former Soviet Union near Mandalay Bays primary entrance, guests will easily recognize Red Square as the Restaurant harboring a headless statue outside, the likeness of V.I. Lenin decapitated in 1999 amidst controversy but in the process creating another Vegas moment whereby visitors can don furs and do shots off the head in sub-zero temperatures. Situated just off the Casino floor en route to a dining collection that remains one of Sin Citys best, Mandalay Bays numbers unfortunately still lagging some six months after the tragic events of October, it was shortly after checking in at the hostess stand that a table for six was readied beneath a sizable chandelier at rooms center, music as well as lights subdued with a red hue making the latter a challenge for amateur Food photographers.Presenting a one-sheet bill of fare in print that may see older patrons pulling out lighted magnifiers, a much thicker list suggesting a collection of Wines, Cocktails and Spirits, it was abiding to the theme that drinks such as a Moscow Mule, KGB and White Ruskie were requested, each well crafted from top-shelf liquor but at the same time subject to Strip pricing at a base of $18.Ordering broadly from various sections, a request for plates to be coursed out flanked by two surprises attempting to create a true tasting menu experience, it was with a trio of Caviar bites that dinner began, housemade Blinis as well as a crispy Potato Chip offering delicate support for everything from Trout to Golden Osetra with each distinct, delicious and also available in traditional by-the-ounce service.Allowing the kitchen to dictate the pace, a pre-theater surge dying down by eight oclock allowing Chef Concepcion to spend time describing his extensive research in recreating the concept, it was to the benefit of two children that crunchy Fingerlings with dipping Sauces joined a collection of imported Charcuterie for round one, the chunky Pate of Pork and Beef amongst many highlights but Troyankas spin on Finochietta stealing the show with big notes of Paprika showing where Fennel often overwhelms.Moving on to a collection of Starters and Salads, most surprisingly well portioned at prices that range $14-$16, it is not even in the simple Chop Salad that Concepcion goes low-effort as a pile of Vegetables is enlivened by housemade pickled Vinaigrette, the use of Dill prominent but restrained just as it is with Scallop Crudo that even the Kids found enjoyable as their parents focused on what can best be described as Grandmas Stuffed Cabbage without any Rice and superior quality ground Meat.Happy to see a collection of Dumplings given their own headline, the lack of Chicken Paprikash forgivable even though it would seem better-suited as an entre than Chicken under a Brick, the decision of where best to invest another $15-$17 comes down to ones personal preferences though those dining as a group would be well-served to order all three, the Vareniki probably safest as Christians Pasta making skills are exhibited in Mushroom Ravioli though the Pierogis should be prioritized by those familiar as they are as good as what one will find in the ethnic shops of Pittsburgh or Cleveland.Further impressed by Khachapuri, the Georgian boat of bubbling Cheese cooking an Egg added tableside into a gooey Fondue eaten like Pizza, it was by way of three Entrees and an equal number of sides that savories came to a conclusion, Escoffiers model for Beef Wellington serving Salmon inside delicate Puff Pastry for just $29 while the Stroganoff and tongue-in-cheek Gorba Chop were both highlight reel dishes priced affordably for sharable portions, the former brightened by Carrots and Dill while the Bone-in Short Rib eats like Portofinos Osso Bucco amidst springy Egg Noodles.Slowing down at this point, Brussels Sprouts gone and only a few spoonfuls of sweet Cabbage or Mushrooms n Cheese remaining, it was with palates cleansed by Coffee that three Desserts were offered, this part of the experience still a work in progress according to Chef Concepcion and only the buttery Bread Pudding currently on the menu, though with any luck the flaky Pastry filled with fresh Cheese, Fruit and Nuts as well as pan-seared Dumplings full of Juniper-perfumed Berries will be quick to join it.FOUR AND A HALF STARS: Swiftly modernizing a nearly twenty year old space, the Russianesque Steakhouse menu replaced by dishes that often taste like those from an Eastern European Grandmothers kitchen, much credit is due to Chef Concepcion and his team for doing the research and getting this one rightnow if only MGMs marketing gurus will work as diligently to make sure everyone is paying attention to both Red Square and the rest of Mandalay Bays wonderful offerings. endoedibles.com
The staff wasn’t very friendly and very overpriced
Don’t bother making a reservation. We had a 7:45 reservation for 8. Its now 9:10 and these douchebags still dont have a table for us. We will never ever come back here. Totally unprofessional.
New management has lowered my opinion. Food is still great…but management decisions ruined my most recent of 4 visits and need to go back the way they were for me to ever go again…1) Bring back flights of vodka in the ice holder; why you got rid of them I’ll never know, but it was a very bad idea. 2) Bring back the more robust vodka list. It’s ok now, but it use to be great with many brands not available in the states; choices now aren’t much better than a TGIFs. 3) Get rid of the loud dance music. It’s a dinner venue with a small bar, not a lounge. Atmosphere due to music prevented conversation and a enjoyable dinner environment. 4) Don’t allow adults in shorts in the door. It’s a nice Vegas establishment…the goober in cargo shorts and running sneakers ruined my meal. FYI gentlemen…shorts are for boys; pants are for men. Save the shorts for your Myrtle Beach trip (and not on the golf course while there!).
Doesn’t live up to the hype. Well, I wanted to believe it was going to be better. I read the reviews and most were good, so I went for it. The food is good, definitely. But not amazing. Our waiter seemed pretty indifferent to us. The vodka however is incredible and maybe this is a better place to drink than eat. The food was just okay. I had better meals while in Vegas. For the money, I say skip this one!
I didn’t Eat…. But I drank. This place is a vodka lovers paradise. The ice top bar is nice. I felt like I was drinking vodka in Russia.
