Lagasse's Stadium restaurant opens at Palazzo

Emeril Lagasse opened his newest restaurant, Lagasse's Stadium, at the Palazzo Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip last week. It is replacing the short-lived Jay Z's 40/40 Club and the equally short-lived Palazzo Sports Book. According to the article, this new restaurant is set in a sports book-like atmosphere, but is supposedly arranged intimately. Makes me curious, because I can't imagine an "intimate" sports book setting in most cases. Maybe it's the casino itself that will set up the "intimate" feeling, I don't know.

If you don't already know, Emeril has three other Las Vegas restaurants on the Strip: Delmonico Steakhouse at The Venetian, Table 10 at Palazzo, and Emeril's New Orleans Fish House at MGM. I ate at the Fish House years ago - very good stuff! I'm hoping to go again during one of my trips next year because I really enjoyed it and I'd like to add a new review for you here.

Here's a link to Emeril's website so that you can check out all of his great restaurants in Las Vegas and elsewhere - restaurant information is available for each of them: http://www.emerils.com/.

If anyone tries one of Emeril's restaurants - but most especially any of his current Vegas eateries - I'd love to hear your opinion of the dining experience in the comments section.
