    Great atmosphere and fun dining experience but extremely loud. Do not go if you want to have dinner conversation, it’s practically impossible.

    Frustrating that we made it clear to server we had some dietary restrictions but he insisted on upselling every dish to ensure there was one piece for each person. Annoying.

    My waitress was terrific. She readily replaced my Prosecco, which was flat and warm with a glass from a new bottle. Very helpful in recommending food choices. Even brought me out gluten free cake pops when she learned I was here for my birthday to see Adele Love this place

    Highly recommend. Love the ambiance when you enter the pawn shop. Food was spectacular. The peanut butter dessert was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had:) As a vegetarian, I also loved the crispy eggplant. Five stars!

    First….. the food was amazing. Sharing multiple plates is the way to go. If you don’t get the grilled cheese/tomato soup then you are missing one of the best bites of food you may ever have. Service was very good. Our server and the buss staff kept plates cleared and water full. Very attentive throughout the night. We were provided a special shareable dessert for my wife’s birthday celebration complimentary. Ambience - here’s where there is definitely room to improve. The decor and overall theme was excellent. Being a higher end restaurant that we chose specifically to get a little dressier to go out to, we were a little disappointed at the number of other patrons in shorts/t shirts/ flip flops/ tank tops. I know the restaurant can’t be held responsible here, but it was odd to see such a dichotomy between what the restaurant tries to be and what its patrons show up wearing. The music could be turned down just a bit. Sometimes found it hard to talk across the table. Some of the tables are so close together that we could not have our bottle of wine kept tableside in its chiller. It had to be kept away from the table. Our server was great in that she re-filled our glasses consistently. The bathroom situation…. I know the restaurant can’t probably do anything about this being in the casino/hotel, but there is no bathroom in the actual restaurant. You have to walk back out into the casino to use the restroom. I realize I listed a number of “improvement” items, but I don’t want that to dissuade anyone from going. The service was good and the food is amazing. It will definitely be on our list to visit again, even if only for a drink and those grilled cheese bites.

    The food was not good. I chose Beauty and Essex because it has been around for a long time with an excellent reputation. I had not dined at B&E in NYC in a few years, but felt confident this was a safe bet for dinner with my sister; trendy ambience, small new American bites, good drinks, in Vegas. The ambience did not disappoint but the food did. The focaccia bites are not bites. It’s a whole ‘focaccia’ cut into normal size squares but tasted like it was previously frozen. Each slice was oddly heavy in weight and very dense. I won’t even begin to critique the red sauce. I would have rather had Ellios pizza. This may be a known issue (or mediocre service) as the waitress didn’t even question why there were only 2 pieces eaten and the rest untouched. The empanadas were similarly abysmal. My sister said ‘what’s in these? They taste like empanadas I get from chilis.’ That’s not necessarily an insult…but the price point isn’t Chili’s. My issue was the dough, so bland. Mexican street corn ravioli was the saving grace to our meal and we enjoyed that very much. We also had onion rings and the tomato soup ‘dumplings’ which were fine and meant we didn’t leave starving. Maybe my expectations were too high or I’ve outgrown this restaurant from its heyday years ago, but I likely won’t be back.

    Beautiful ambience and love the shareable plates. Our waiter, George, carefully curated the right pairings based on our size so we didn't get everything at once. The food was excellent. Their signature soup was unexpectedly superb. It was different in how it was presented but would definitely order again.

    We have been to B & E is NYC twice. This was our first visit to the Las Vegas location and we had a daughter who has Celiac with us. I had heard good things about a gf menu. The menu for us seemed a bit small. We had heard that if you order the Wonder Wheel for dessert, they can put gf desserts on there. The only thing that they put on there was this thick jelly like square that tasted like jam. Since we were celebrating a birthday, they do have gf cake pops that they brought and those were very good and complimentary. The other gf items ordered were the French Dips (served on soft rice cakes) and Thai Shrimp. Those two items came to $48 and that was my daughter's meal (she is 22 years old). The rest of us shared Tomato Soup Dumplings, Ravioli, Lobster Bao, and Chicken Meatballs. The faves were the dumplings and the bao.

    Food was good by of all my meals in Vegas maybe the least spectacular. I was not blown away by the grilled cheese dumplings or wowed by the fried Thai shrimp. They were both just good. Cocktails were below par. Service and ambiance were nice. With all the Vegas options not sure I would go again.

    Food was excellent with the exception of a very poorly executed “Crispy Eggplant” that was far from crispy and overpowered with a sweet/sour/spicy sauce. The focaccia bites were out of this world. We had several other dishes, all very much worth the experience. Service was very good. Would definitely go back!
