sorry, I had to LOL, because my experience is 100% opposite. When we do this place Steak is literally an afterthought. Do the north end of the menu (appetizers and pastas) as the main part of the meal, try everything and it will blow your mind. By the time you get to the steaks you will only need to make a small order because you will have no more room in your belly - and you will be incredibly satisfied with some of the best dry aged cuts of meat available.

I felt the same as you did except I think Delmonico is above Craft.Really good list none the less, only thing I really disagree with is StripSteak which was a big miss for me.

Neros is very good... its not world class like Cut, Del or Carne, but it's placement is well deserved.

Did Sage this week again, we ordered all the same dishes you did, only thing I didnt like was the Waygu - but thats my own fault, I don't like the taste of onions. We also addded the oysters, the torro, and the scallaps in oxtail soup, an absinthe tasting (I am still not a fan, anice and I dont get along), some averna and tons of bubbles. The biggest surprise of the night though was the egg yolk appetiser, it reminded me a lot of the Carnevino duck egg with pastrami - but it might be even better! The Somalier brought out an essoteric Dogfishs Head IPA which he paired with the egg and the foie gras and it was a totally left field outstanding choice!
I'm with you, Sage might be my new fav in Vegas.

doubt it very much, so much that I'd lay odds. The policy here is to start with the freshest, and 'F with it the least.
