The Kitchen at Atomic - Las Vegas, Nevada

Luigi

Worst dining experience I've had... probably this whole year. It took us about 15 minutes of sitting at a table to have anyone come and check us in and provide menus. The restaurant was nearly empty, but to our server's credit, the adjacent bar was probably popping. There seemed to be only one person waiting tables. I can tell she was trying, but clearly was overloaded and scattered. We ordered 2 burgers. About 20 minutes later, only one burger came out. Waited 10 minutes for the second one. As my friend was about to finish his burger, the waitress checked if we needed anything. Yeah. My burger. Oops.

This one came out quicker but it felt like an eternity. I wish I could say it was worth it, but the burger was literally oozing with grease *not sauce* that formed a worryingly large, pale brown pool at the bottom of the plate. Gross, but I'm so hungry I'll eat just about anything right now. Tasted like a mediocre homestyle or diner burger, barely "bar food" and definitely not "restaurant food". Thankfully we had the forgotten burger taken off the bill, but honestly I would have felt bad paying for it even if it came out on time. Oh, and the fried pickles on the side. The batter was half overcooked and half undercooked. Usually I love fried pickled but I didn't finish these. I finished my burger as quickly as possible, as we had already spent about 50 minutes in there.

I really wanted to leave. We waited about 10 minutes after I finished eating for our server to come give us the check but I gave up and had to go send the bartender at the restaurant into the main bar area to search for her. She finally showed up. After spending a total of OVER ONE HOUR in this place just trying to get fed, I was just glad to leave. Man I usually don't leave reviews like this but I still regret going here..... avoid avoid avoid

The staff was exceptional. The chef personally greeted us and surprised us with an amazing peach salad. Everything our waiter recommended was amazing, and our group shared a ton of food. The only thing I didn't care for was the ratatouille, which had a little too much tomato for my liking. Additionally, the staff was very attentive to my endless this for water, keeping my glass full. We will definitely be back again.

Great low-key spot located on Fremont Street in Las Vegas.

Located on Fremont Street, but off the beaten path of “Fremont Street Proper”, this establishment features two bars and an outdoor patio.

Affordable menu and great food/service! Will return!

Excellent experience!!!

Randomly came here because of Open Table availability in vicinity of our movie theatre. Glad we did. This was our first time.

Restaurant had great layout and beautifully designed. Glad to see someone put thought into remodel. Patio would have been awesome, but was still a tad chilly.

Staff greeted us immediately and sat us down where we could see the entire dining room.

Our server gave us a detailed synopsis of the menu and steered our attention to crowd and personal favorites.

Food and drink came out timely (especially cocktail in less than a minute). Food was well presented. Spring pea salad was right in season and amazingly not overdressed. Braised pork tagliatelle was well structured and great portion. Even their version of bread pudding with Bourbon sauce was tough to resist. Although admittedly had too much cardamom for my palate.

Apparently they were going through chef transition and though I hadn't been here prior, didn't feel anything missed a beat.

I attribute such an amazing experience to their management. Easy to let details go unnoticed in this area of downtown and next to a bar...but not the case here. Everything was on point and team chemistry was evident all over the place.

Well done to everyone involved. Will be back

Thank you!!!

This is nothing like the main bar. The atmosphere is brighter, like a lot of the other new downtown eateries. The dishes are unique, but pretty expensive. There is an extensive drink menu, with specialty scotches, wines, etc. If you don't mind the cost, it's worth checking out.

Food was ok, nothing special. Tacos were average, the taco it's self was dry and hard, mushroom inside it were nice,
Beef loaded fries were not bad but not great.
Cauliflower wing were so vinegary they were virtually inedible.
Staff were freindly enough.
Had alot better food in other places for similar money.

I'm amazed by the food! It's delicious beyond compare. We ordered the half chicken and the pork chop and the flavor of the sauces is beyond compare. The meat was cooked to perfection. The vegetables were delicious but need some work. The chard carrots would have been better if they'd been thicker because the grilling of them left them woody. The broccoli rabe was delicious but too bitter for some pallates. My biggest suggestion is to provide a few more recognizable items for sides and appetizers! All in all an absolutely delicious dining experience for an excellent price! I'm wowed!

Dessert was out of this world: homemade gelato and deep fried apple pie!
