Right well, I'll admit to being suckered in by the name alone and honestly I was curious, just how British is this supposedly British pub and grill? The answer is, not very. I had the Fish and Chips. I mean, if you can't make that, then you can't call yourself a British eatery and as it turned out no, they couldn't make it. England might be the land of bland food but Ramsay's Pub and Grill managed to out-do itself in terms of sheer blandness. I've never had fish that lacked taste as much as this. The batter had nowhere near the crunch that I'd expect and had no flavour of its own either, providing only a little texture and the fish tasted only of the lemon juice I put on it. The portion size of the fish made it less of a Fish and Chips plate and more like Cod Nuggets and Chips, at least it would have been had they actually served chips.

You'd think, the clue would be in the name. Fish and Chips. But no, apparently chips is now potato wedges, skin and all. A dish so simple there's a decent place to get it on every corner in the UK no matter how small a town you're in and yet this place in Vegas with a famous name on it can't even manage the most basic of fried potato. Look I get it, you want to put your own spin on the dish, but it's not bloody fish and chips if you don't include any chips. Maybe I'd have let this $30 platter of dismal disappointment go if it was actually what it claimed to be on the menu but it was nothing but an expensive pile of lies.

The waiter noticed I hadn't eaten much and asked if I didn't like it. He then brought his manager over who asked for feedback, claiming they'd had several other complaints. Well I appreciate her honesty and willingness to take it off the bill but it's got Ramsays name on it, you think they'd be beyond asking customers how to make Fish and Chips. I'd find better Fish and Chips in a roadside Little Chef on the A1 and only the most desperate lost souls dare eat there.

5 quid at any local chippie in the UK will give you far more and far tastier fare. This place sums up Vegas, I gambled on what should have been a sure thing and lost. I'd rather have eaten the poker chips.

We went there for a snack and drinks after watching a show. We waited about 30 minutes to get a table. We ordered 2 desserts (spotted "dic" and poted chocolate triffle), 2 drinks and a Calamari. The food and drink were both delicious. The bill came out close to $80.00 which was more than what we paid for dinner at another restaurant. The service was ok.

Horrible food! We had the Maine lobster rolls. Rolls were stale and very dry! Very little lobster with no flavor! We also had the Dublin corned beef brisket sandwich. Once again the bread was extremely dry and stale! Seriously very little meat and condiments in this tiny sandwich! Such a huge disappointment! Our roofs of our mouths were so scraped up from the dry stale bread that we could not eat the next day!!!

Not a large menu just large prices. My wife and I had a drink each an appetizer and shared a dinner to come in just under a $100. The fish and chips were okay.

On the night before our wedding in Vegas my fiancé and I had a very nice casual dinner at Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill.
Right off the bat we were made quite comfortable by the host that greeted us ... he joked around with my fiancé telling him that someone named "Linda" had cancelled the reservations (I made the reservations in my name so that is how they knew my first name) ... this gentleman gave us a good laugh and we were shown to our table.
The menu was a great pub menu and choices in wines and beers were many. We ended up ordering the Beef Ale Pie and Organic Bone In Chicken Breast served on a wonderful Pesto with a few gnocchi, and small vegetables nicely spread around the breast ... the presentation was wonderful but the taste was right on, tender, mouth melting and totally delicious. The beef ale pie had big pieces scrumptious beef with a variety of fresh vegetables and very enjoyable.
I drank wine and my fiancé had beer with our two meals that we shared. The atmosphere was very comfortable. Our server "Chris" was very attentive, always making sure we were looked after. One of the Chef's "Rodney" was also very attentive and served our foods to our table and made us feel so special with his pleasant conversation and personable touch.
The dessert menu is all homemade desserts and we shared a chocolate lava type dessert which I cannot remember the name of but it was divine.
We would go back to Gord Ramsay's Pub in Vegas and believe me that are thousands of restaurants to choose from and this is one of the experiences you want to have.
