There are many restaurants in the Las Vegas Valley, but Anthony's Prime Steak & Seafood is among the best we have gone to. Valet parking make it easy to arrive. The room is elegant with tables spaced far apart, and it is suffiently quiet that one can hold a conversation. The menu offers an excellent variety, and nightly specials are available. The food and service are spot on as well. We celebrated our anniversary, and Anthony's made it special.

We hadn't been to Jayde 16 before. We used to go to Jayde Fusion when it was on the main floor of the M casino. The menu was a different format but thought we would give it a try for my wife's birthday. We were pleasantly surprised. The flavor of everything was top notch. Service was great. For a party of 5, the bill was reasonable. We are definitely coming back when the weather warms up so we can enjoy the outdoor patio on the 16th floor.
