Although it’s off-Strip, VooDoo Steak will cast its spell, luring you to the Rio not only for its juicy, artisan steaks, but also for its stunning view of the Las Vegas Strip from the property’s 50th floor. You’ll want to start with a cocktail, and there may be no better option than the Witch Doctor, which is mixed with four types of rum and fruit juice. The concoction is then poured over dry ice, which makes it brim with smoke as if it’s a spooky potion.
Move on to appetizers such as the jumbo shrimp cocktail, crab cakes or short rib bruschetta, which is prepared with rye batard, truffle ricotta and fennel citrus salad. A wedge salad or the popular lobster bisque may also catch your eye. But the entrées are simply mesmerizing. You’ll love the brick chicken, served with blue cheese au gratin, forest mushroom, yuzu caper beurre blanc, fennel and radish, or opt for the 12-ounce Australian lobster tail. But you’d be remiss if you skipped out on their cuts, such as the juicy 10-ounce filet, 14-ounce prime flat iron steak or the 32-ounce tomahawk for two. Finish off with the chocolate layer cake and you’ll leave feeling enchanted.
