My son and I were so looking forward to this dinner, we made the reservation before our trip and could not wait to eat at Gordan Ramsey’s restaurant. Then we arrived and it was a huge disappointment. Our server was nice, Jeremiah I believe his name was, but after we had issues we couldn’t even get him to come by to get refills. My son got the fish and chips and I ordered the filet medium. We also ordered a side dish of mac-n-cheese. We waited a long time to get our food and there was not a lot of people in the restaurant. The food came out and as soon as I cut into my filet it was beyond well done and I could not eat it. I sent it back my son completely finished his food and I still had not received my steak yet and again it was supposed to be medium. When I finally got it the manager brought it to me and I cut into it and it was now rare and I have no idea why it took almost 30mins to get a remade steak that came out rare. The manager says and I quite “Oh it’s still not right, what do you want to do?” Seriously it’s been over an hour and I was starving by this time so I said I guess I’m going to eat it. The best part of the meal was the Bailey’s Chocolate Mousse (which the manager did give us for free), but I can’t tell you how disappointed we were. We had eaten at Ruth’s Chris the night before and I wish we went back there again because the bill was the same but the food was so much better at Ruth’s Chris. The only reason I gave it 3 stars was because my son liked his fries and Mac and cheese. He liked the fish once he took the breading off the

My family and I ate here and it was fantastic! The food was out of this world! The environment was great! Our waiter was amazing! He was helpful and attentive and we did not have to ask for anything because he was on top of it all! He made sure we had full drinks and took dirty dishes away quickly and was just the best! We ate at Hell’s Kitchen in Vegas a couple years ago so we wanted to try this pub while we were here at the casino and it did not disappoint! Everything we tried was delicious! We had the famous beef Wellington,lobster bisque,prime rib,Maine lobster rolls,smash burger,waygu meatballs and of course the sticky pudding! 10/10 highly recommend!!!

First the good… service was good, waitress was friendly and came back 3 or 4 times to check on things. Atmosphere was just open tables (a few booths) in a relaxed setting. My wife loved the crispy salmon, and our friends enjoyed the French dip and fish & chips.
Now the bad part. I splurged and tried the “Ramsay Experience”, which is 3 courses for $85. I opted for the Lobster Bisque for the appetizer. The bisque part was VERY tasty… problem was, there was NO lobster at all except the small piece of claw meat used as garnish/decoration in the middle of the bowl! Again NOT ONE PIECE OF LOBSTER in the LOBSTER bisque! VERY DISAPPOINTING! The main course was also a bit disappointing… while it was quite tasty and prepared well, the portion was only about a 3 or 4 Oz medallion, not a full serving of filet. There were more carrots on the plate than Wellington. The only thing that didn’t disappoint was the Toffee Pudding.
I won’t be doing that again!

Me and my mom and sister decided to dine here for the first time while on our stay here at the hotel. The server and hostess was amazing, very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant looked very nice and clean. The place was moderately packed and one of the things that need improvement is how long it takes to receive the food. We waited 45 minutes for our food to come, and considering that we was hungry that was a little long of a wait. Once the food came, I ordered the Hellfire wings, truffle fries and mac n cheese. My mom got the short ribs and my sister got the prime ribs. The wings were pretty ok, nothing amazing about them and could use a little more sauce but cooked well. But you only get 6 wings for $18, so nothing life changing about the taste. The truffle fries was my favorite, really good. And the mac n cheese was ok, could use more cheese and seasoning. All of that was about $46, so nothing I have to run back and get. My sister’s prime rib she said was ok, the au ju and mash potatoes could use more seasoning, for about $65. My mom’s short rib she said was easy to cut into but when try to chew it was tough, chewy and stringy. She had to end up getting a new dish- crab cakes because she just couldn’t enjoy the short ribs. The waitress and manager was nice accommodating her new order so that’s not an issue. It was her birthday and the waitress accommodate her with a birthday dessert, which was the truffle pudding and that was really good! So overall this restaurant is very expensive for the taste and quality of the food. I like the people and the look of it, but we probably won’t eat here again.

One of the more upscale places to eat at Harrah’s Cherokee. The lobster roll & truffle fries were very tasty. Hubby wasn’t impressed with Beef Wellington experience.

We tried the Signature Experience and it was fantastic. The lobster bisque was rich and smooth, the Beef Wellington was perfectly done, and the sticky toffee pudding with vanilla ice cream was the perfect ending. The lobster risotto was also delicious—subtle, but satisfying. A memorable meal overall.

We went to the Truffle pub at Cherokee Casino for an early dinner. We started with the lobster bisque and the soup of the day “broccoli cheese” next were the appetizers crab cakes and wagu meatballs. We ordered entrees of crispy salmon and the lobster risotto. The food was excellent and well prepared. Service was spot on attentive without being bothersome. The only negative was that there is a lot of outside noise and a bothersome vibration from time to time. Not sure what the cause. Overall a great experience and we will be back again.

The beef wellington was maybe 4ozs and tasted like bland dirt..it was however very tender..the carrots were bigger than the wellington and the potato puree was literally as much as 2 tablespoons smeared on the plate.The $85 wellington experience is a joke, I had to ask for dressing on my ceasar salad and I barely put dressing on my salad so that should tell you how much was on there to begin with. I had to get up and go to the server entrance to ask for salt and pepper because our server ignored us the whole time except to bring the dessert and check..the only saving grace is that the sticky toffee pudding was out of this world delicious thats why i gave 2 stars on the food.My advice is go to Brio the steak is way better and half the price.

First, the food was very good. We decided to do our own surf and turf ordering the crab cake appetizer as one entree with a side of broccolini, and the prime rib. Mentioned we’d share both. Food came out fairly fast and they did give us an extra plate and steak knife which was appreciated since not all places instinctively do it. So why 3 stars? The crab cakes where tiny. I mean really small and flat, and although they were good, definitely not worth $26. I assumed the $11 sides would be sharable, I was wrong. Not even enough broccolini for one person in my opinion. The prime rib was awesome! The small dollop of mashed potatoes was delicious but again, not even enough for one person. Plenty of carrots though! Again, everything tasted great, service was very good, but I don’t think I’d spend that much again on what was very small portion sizes. I go to the casino and stay overnight at least once a month, and I was really hoping my first time at Truffles would have been a better experience in terms of value/price. I do like Gordon’s other offerings along with some of the other restaurant there, and Ruth’s Chris never disappoints so there are other options.

Our reaction was priceless. We ordered half a chicken and the Lobster bisque. There was no Lobster in the bisque but the tiny piece that added to the top of the bisque. Had good flavor though, no bread to dip it or anything?? The chicken was so tiny we though it was a baby chicken or quail. Was dried out. So for that money I’d think it be a decent size or be delicious. Save your money. Been to many restaurants where it’s high however was worth it. Only thing that was good was the bartender he was very nice and attentive!
