    Food was great - a little pricey, and service was mediocre - not up to the standard of a high priced restaurant

    I ordered one of the fresh catch options, cooked in cast iron with a sauce, as my entree. The size of the fish appeared tiny on the platter alone, and not extremely hot for being cooked in cast iron. The creole meunière sauce on the side was lukewarm at best. The side of roasted vegetables was tasty. Passing along a credit card fee on top of our bill really leaves a sour taste, especially for an organization this size. I can understand it from a small family owned restaurant. I had visited this location about a year ago and had a great meal. This one was disappointing. Not sure it will one of the places I’ll visit again.

    Inviting ambiance, great food, excellent service, friendly staff. When I told our server that we have enjoyed Emeril’s restaurants in Las Vegas, we were introduced to the General Manager and the Executive Chef. The GM assisted us in wine selection, and the Executive Chef spent time with us explaining the menu. We were treated like special guests. Overall, a fabulous experience.

    After a poor experience last time (October)with hostess’ lack of professionalism, it was much different this time & they were welcoming. Kari and Juan took care of us and were amazing with recommendations. The food (cornbread, holiday flatbread, halibut & seafood platter) & wine pairing is what keeps us wanting to come back. Great work, Kari and Juan and Kitchen Staff!

    I had a wonderful dinner experience at Emeril’s Coastal. I had the cornbread appetizer which was fabulous and for dinner I had the grouper with creamed potatoes. Both was delicious. I look forward to enjoying another meal there soon.
