The dinner show. It was a big deal in casino showrooms a few decades back. You bought tickets to see a headliner and dinner came off a prix fixe menu and was served during the performance. With a few exceptions \u2014 Tournament of Kings<\/em> at Excalibur<\/a><\/u>, for example \u2014 that version of the dinner show is long past. Supper clubs with live music were also a thing. Those, too, are rare these days, though more easily found in some non-casino restaurants. Recently, two casino venues have headed back down the dinner-and-show road: Mayfair at Bellagio and Delilah at Wynn Las Vegas. We tried Delilah. Note that photos and video aren\u2019t allowed there. We snuck in a couple, but had to go with mostly stock photos from Wynn for this review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Room<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The room is a big part of the overall experience. It\u2019s designed as a 1950s’ Vegas showroom, but it also has a speakeasy feel, with a bar in front and a big dining area and show stage. We\u2019ve heard complaints about it being too dark inside, but we didn\u2019t find that to be the case. Cool place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dinner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Fancy. Expensive. Good. What else would you expect? We were on a comp with a big group that opted to order for the table, so we were able to try several dishes. The seafood tower was ridiculous, featuring lobster, king crab, shrimp, and oysters. It cost $299, but easily served seven, so really a $43-per-person appetizer. The big deal here is Delilah Beef Wellington. We weren\u2019t blown away and at $189 (serves two), you can go a less-expensive route, e.g., grilled branzino ($59), ora king salmon ($53), or roasted heritage chicken ($47). Steaks start at $79 for an eight-ounce filet. Sides run $19-$37 for dishes such as carrot souffl\u00e9, broccoli di ciccio, black-truffle mashed potatoes, buttermilk-ranch chicken tenders, and a decadent mac & cheese \u2014 excuse us, macaroni gratin\u00e9e made with mimolette cheese fondue & black truffle b\u00e9chamel. Fancy. Expensive. Good. Here\u2019s the menu<\/strong><\/a><\/u>. There\u2019s late-night dining with a small less-expensive menu<\/strong><\/a><\/u> (nothing more than $49) Thurs.-Sun. from 11 pm till close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Show<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDinner show\u201d is a misnomer here. You won\u2019t see a show. The entertainment consists of a main stage with a live jazz band and singer doing classics. There\u2019s a raised platform in the center of the room where female dancers perform, along with dancers near the stage. The performances by the singer and dancers are low-key and non-interruptive, with neither hindering conversation at our table. It makes for a pleasant dining atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reservations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Make them as far in advance as you can As mentioned, we were with a comped party, so we don\u2019t know how difficult it is to get a seat off the street. However, Delilah was included on a list from Vegas Luxury<\/em> magazine of the \u201c8 Most Sought-After Reservations in Las Vegas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Delilah isn\u2019t for everyone, but it\u2019s certainly an option for something different and if the prices don\u2019t bother you, it\u2019s a worthwhile experience. The food wasn\u2019t on a level of Vegas\u2019 best, but neither was it disappointing. The whole thing seems to go best with a group rather than just two on a date. The weekend late-night option might be a good way to check it out on the \u201ccheap.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
