Hello travelers, hey there I'm tanya and I'm Dave and we are Turn It Up World
Welcome back to . . . Las Vegas
We are so excited to be heading back to one of our favorite places to eat here
on the Las Vegas Strip and that's Gordon Ramsay's Hell's
Kitchen Caesars Palace to try their cheaper three-course
pre-fix menu that's right you heard it cheaper oh no
that's exciting we also want to see what's changed
last time we were at hell's kitchen which is right after the las vegas
reopen absolutely i am starving i'm ready to
rock and roll are you ready rock i am ready let's do it ta-da and just
like that we are back i'm so excited and dave and i want to see if
the process is still the same here at hell's kitchen
like it was the day of the reopening let's go check this out let's see
the first time they open the door now we have to touch the door
oh that's crazy for the camera yeah i gotta get it going
that's crazy
this looks more girly
all right so i feel like this is like deja vu we're kind of right back
where we started in these comfortable seats it's like vips it's like
actually there's amazing seats here just incredible view of the strip
yes now it's funny the fountains aren't running tonight which is a little
different yes that's true but i will also say
what's different is you're not wearing a hat
well that's true
oh thank you well i'm stoked now a couple things we did
notice right away i think we first came in here
from the last time we were here so what's changed what do you think's
changed right from the beginning well sure right from the start i mean of
course you'd open the door to come through
right which is quite different before actually uh
the first time after the reopen they opened the door for you
yes right and then touched absolutely nothing and then at some point there
actually had the door just kept open right right it was
exhausted from our live streams but now he actually had to open it up right and
then there's hands in here and all that and the first time i
remember we came in the uh i guess maitre d
he also was there and kind of assisted us that's right with the qr code and
said you can zap it right here with your phone
but i think you know what's happening is they're starting to get a familiar
process kind of put in place so it still has a very similar feel um the
difference between that is when you sat down
right away we were able to take up our mask the first time eventually yeah and
this time they said you should take off your mask once your cocktail
arrives that was the water exactly for the water exactly you need a
drink on your table to take the mask off otherwise mascot
so this is a great way to kick things off here at gordon ramsay's hell's
kitchen las vegas you gotta start with a nice cocktail and boy do they have
nice cocktails with great presentations look at this i mean what do you got
going on over there well this is this beautiful thing it's
called smoke on the boulevard 50 it looks like a beauty it does like a
beauty and i ended up getting a delicious i
don't know yet until i try it but it's called the duchess and boy does she
look classy and this here is uh 18 for the duchess so what's in yours sure
we have some woodford rye aperol amber or verna sweet vermouth
it's all smoked cherry wood wow that is incredible
and it smells good and smoky yes
that tastes good too what's in yours the duchess has an empress
1908 gin fever-tree elderflower tonic juniper which is those little
little lovely little black bits in there and of course rosemary on the side oh
cheers to a great night ah alright so let's talk about the
hell's kitchen summer prefix menu which is their new addition to the
hell's kitchen family right it's basically a welcome back
maybe since the last thing it's reopened it's been super super popular yes and
from what we heard this menu may stick around for quite
some time it just may alter the name whether it's summer
winter fall but it's got basically a several of his signature dishes
one being the beef wellington and of course the sticky toffee pudding
exactly it's a three-course menu you have options too as you go through
now this prefix menu runs about 79.95 so or
75 sorry 95. 75.95 and that is great i'm excited to try
this oh i'm excited uh we're going to share this yes
we're going to share it with a few additions we'll talk about later yes
right but first we're going to start with the
heirloom tomato and burrata salad yeah it'll be really nice really nice
refreshing and then of course you got to go over
the beef well like that yes the signature beef wellington so we're going
to bake collagen and then well dessert is one choice sticky toffee
pudding exactly now before the beef wellington one of our favorites which is
not on this menu is the lobster risotto now even though they have the truffle
sauce blended in the lobster risotto itself
is about 26 that's right yeah and with that if you want to add the
truffles which traditionally comes with the five course kind of like
the elegant presentation it's another twenty eight dollars twenty
dollars hey dollars you ain't kidding for just the truffle
savings on top so 26 for the result and another 20. the 28
is amazing but if you look for a special occasion for something like for us
it's great to be back here we're going to treat ourselves to that and let you
guys really see that delicious lobster soda
with that truffle sauce i'm excited it's the best
risotto it's amazing
wow this looks amazing that looks really really nice does that not look delicious
and fresh i'm excited i mean look at that burrata just sitting
there oh it easily breaks apart let's do this diving in i'm going to
take a little bit of that nice burrata gravel there look at that delicious
tomato oh yeah oh my gosh of course the basil
how's that right cheers
that is absolutely delicious i think what i like the most about that is
the combination of the salt the heirloom tomatoes are really cold
and chilled yeah and that cheese is really
melts in your mouth the balsamic is perfectly like
light and fresh and airy so good it is good
i think it's great it's a nice starter it is very light
very refreshing in a way you can almost have something a little stronger before
now this after because it is very refreshing i agree right but
it's a perfect amount i think if we're going to share the dish that we have oh
yeah we have a great amount we have a lot going on a lot of food coming so
this is a great start yes and one thing for folks coming to
hell's kitchen for the first time yes just to be aware it is loud in here yeah
it's not a quiet restaurant i mean there's loud music you hear kind
of the people behind you even with the distancing yes it's still
quite loud right and that and of course that's just
something to be mindful of once you get a cocktail and some great food
trust me you forget about the music very quickly
thank you so much that's awesome this is one of our favorites we mentioned this
earlier this is their lobster risotto we actually went
all out on this one because we love this dish so much now
it's a lobster risotto it's a butter poached lobster
with a crispy onion and truffles oh and this is amazing i mean tana
no joke i mean this is our favorite certainly my favorite risotto
anywhere and when people think about hell's kitchen and gordon ramsay thank
beef wellington
if you want to treat yourself a little something extra go for that australian
truffle i think you'll really enjoy it
you know how you know when it's like really good because it'll start like
i eat it's like oh this makes you want to dance britannia starts dancing
the food is hey okay you know it's good yeah
it really does melt in your mouth the lobster pieces are perfect
really nice and buttery this is so good it's so creamy
just amazing it really is i mean it's just the best once again
are you ready for the main event i am ready and of course what is it
wellington
exactly one of his signature dishes we are excited about this
i love the beef wellington it's just a really great staple here
uh at gordon ramsay's house kitchen it has that nice potato puree
the demi-glaze like wine sauce and of course the uh
vegetables which is just a great nice combination now it's funny during the
quarantine we actually tried to make i remember gordon ramsay's beef
wellington and i thought it was pretty good
i did too now it probably doesn't compare to this but hey we gave it a
shot we gave it a shot give it a try it's always a pretty presentation before
you cut it and that after that first cut it's like a hot mess on the bottom
oh after i cut it it's just going to be a big mess it doesn't look like this
anymore yes well that's not going to depend on
the night oh well the knife is pretty sharp in this one
it's not like my kitchen knife
tell you that is really good it really kind of melts in your mouth
which is surprising you have this kind of big piece of steak
you know kind of the pastry on top and everything but it really melts and
everything blends together really nicely even the salt in the pastry
that mushroom puree is really nice and i feel like it's consistent
the first time we had it this time we're having it
i feel like it's the same consistency every time it's very consistent now
i will say on the five course meal they had before
the closing right they had this five course meal that had faux grass
yes on top of that had another element which is incredible
absolutely and they don't have that now on the menu yeah we saw anyway right so
not with this summer prefix that's probably what helps them keep the cost
is what it is because some of those things on the menu themselves
by themselves are pretty pricey
to our surprise hell's kitchen gave us a complimentary dessert
the chocolate decadence cake with gold lace leaf
chocolate ice cream and even a red coated chocolate pitchfork
it was absolutely delicious and of course we couldn't pass up getting one
of our favorite desserts there the sticky toffee pudding with speculoos
ice cream and if you asked us about the desserts
we'd say go ahead and indulge yourself in the desserts
at gordon ramsay's hell's kitchen las vegas
i am so stuffed right now i'm so stopped can we even shared a dish no so that's
how you can tell one is enough for two that's right so
let me ask you yeah so what do you think what do you
think
there may have been some changes for sure that have happened here you know
from the first time we hear from the reopen
to now but the consistency of the food the service that has not changed dang
delicious yeah i know it's been great just uh incredible service the food's
been spot on i mean our table the views unbeatable
