Crossroads Kitchen Las Vegas

Everything about this place is amazing. For starters the food is some of the best fancy vegan food we ever had. We had the gluten free truffle pasta which was one of the more amazing dishes. Service was great. Atmosphere very refreshing as a little calmer in the bustle of vegas. Small thing but also nice you didn’t have to trek through the labyrinth of a large hotel to get there. It was right near the entrance. Cocktails also were amazing and the staff really attentive.

We came on Valentine's Day. Made reservations earlier in the week for 2 at 730. Dinner was a limited menu 5 course meal. They provided a gluten free option for every course on top of being totally vegan. When we arrived, they were running ~20 minutes behind they said. So we were stuck waiting for 30 minutes before being seated for dinner. This delay messed up the flow of the night we had planned as we had tickets for a 930 show. Had we been seated on time, the pacing would have been excellent for each course. As it was, with the staff being fully booked, attention to our table was somewhat overlooked and we had to request our dessert and check as soon as we were served the entree and did not have time to enjoy the dessert. The food was very good and creative. Whatever management choices were made for the day in regards to booking vs staffing, it felt like it negatively impacted the staff's ability to effectively meet our needs.

I went to their $48.00 pp all you can eat buffet; it's overpriced but I had to try it. I ate there with an open mind if it's really good I will eat there every year when I visit Vegas. Once was enough... I am a healthy vegan due to health reasons. I mostly eat vegetables and select fruit and very little carbs. I am healthiest if I avoid gluten; lots of gluten here. However a very nice chef custom made the rigatoni rice noodles which helped. This buffet only had fresh brussel sprouts and even the breakfast potatoes seemed frozen and deep fried out of the bag. They had a Caesar salad and one other average salad, sliced oranges and some grapes. There were blueberries and strawberries sparsely garnishing the vegan yogurt...that's it for fresh fruit and veggies...they fell way short here There were not any vegan labor intensive recipes in the whole buffet. Everything was good and nothing was bad...but not one dish stood out as ...oh yum, I have to return to this buffet. However, here is what I liked; basil pesto pasta sauce or spicy vodka sauce pasta. The basil pasta was better. The tiramisu was good but good thing....there were only 4 deserts to choose from and the tiramisu was the most upscale compared to vegan brownies, lemon cookies or lemon cake which I never got to try because they didn't bring out more. Manager at Crossroads could immediately improve what you get included for $48.00 by including coffee or herbal tea; include a handmade vegan lasagna and create repeat customers? Include barbeque cauliflower, mixed roasted vegetables to feed the people who don't want to eat vegan frankenfood such as the processed bacon on the buffet. I didn't eat any scrambled eggs, pancakes, processed diced potatoes (as basic as it comes and Golden corral level of taste with salt), tasted the breakfast sausage and it was store bought too). Very little healthy vegan and next time in Vegas I will go have brunch at Modern Vegan or Chaga Root, or ....anywhere I can get fresh vegetables. The menu here is excellent with some items very rare to find on other vegan restaurant menus such as zucchini blossoms. If you don't mind unhealthy vegan you will enjoy more items on this buffet than I did. I hope the manager will implement some of my suggestions in order to build a solid base of repeat customers.? I am a level 8 Google guide reviewer and rarely write a negative review, but $48.00 for the quality of healthy options here is way too greedy. 48.00 would buy you a couple good quality dishes off the Crossroads menu.
