content: I had a Yelp review intervention tonight.  I was dining with 5 other friends from work who had a much different experience than I did and I was deputized by the group to review the restaurant with our collective opinions rather than mine alone as all of my other reviews are.  Let me say up front if it were me alone I would awarding somewhere between 3 and 4 stars.  I thought the food and service was above average and I found the restaurant to be comfortable and the noise level to be at an intensity that contributed to a lively atmosphere but did not inhibit conversation.  \n\nMy trusty companions felt the food was average.  Most ordered the petite filet mignon (huge mistake in a chophouse if you ask me) and I along with another coworker had the bone-in rib eye (the steak of all steaks the only cut of beef I eat unless it's prime rib).  As sides we ordered Tater Tots, Grilled Tomato's, Mac & Cheese and Hash Browns (see pictures).  T-Bones brags that their prime steaks are wet aged 20 days and then dry aged another 15 days.  I personally found my rib eye to be very good how companions found their steaks to be lacking flavor and the texture unappealing.  I have to agree the sides needed help and in my opinion were the biggest disappointment of the evening.  I had read up on the menu before arriving and was very excited by the hash browns with a sunny side up egg (how could you resist).  Unfortunately, they do not taste as good as they look.  They were definitely lacking flavor unless you count the prestigious amount of salt they must season them with.   For a party of six you need two eggs instead of one.   Skip the grilled tomatoes.  Big mistake!  They're topped with American cheese (OMG).  Don't bother with this side dish (besides why would you order fruit at a chophouse).  Tater tots are \""eh!\""  Very small portion and again over seasoned with salt.  The mac & cheese was another small portion and as my friend put it \""they were topped with Kraft Bacon Bits straight from the supermarket.\""  I don't know about that but they were not memorable and now days when everyone is doing gourmet Mac & Cheese it better be good and it better be special.  These were not. \n\nNeedless to say as a group we were disappointed and we left without having desert because of it. \n\nMy friend summed it up by stating, \""This is the first time I've ever been disappointed in a meal while in Las Vegas.  After a moment of considering this statement I had to agree.  I would not visit T-Bones again which is a very disappointing statement to make for many reasons not the least of which was I thought that I had enjoyed it more until I evaluated my experience by that statement.  Would I spend $500 for a meal like this again?  The answer is no I wouldn't and there are many other places in Las Vegas I were I would.
