Best Restaurants for Creative Cuisine in Henderson

Decided to celebrate wrapping up my Christmas shopping by bopping over to Bramàre for an early dinner. Sat at my favorite spot at the bar. Began with a newer drink, the Smoky Paradise ($17). Had the tongue-tingling bite of a baby viper with the smooth brain squeeze of a boa constrictor. Ended up enjoying three and organizing my main meal around this addictive cocktail. Striped Bass Crudo ($18): Deceptively small morsels of clean light and firm fish, zippy flavor, the best mayo. Meant to be shared; I didn't. Mezcal Pomodoro ($26): One of my favorite pasta dishes, the Creste de Gallo. Substantial portion, al dente, in creamy, lightly spiced, cheesy and peppery sauce. Had planned to have only the excellent boozy and jazzy Bragato ($22) as dessert, but spotted a relatively new (always my kryptonite) menu item, the Hazelnut Cake ($11). A massive wedge of cheesecake, attended by three giant handcrafted and chocolate-drizzled marshmallows. Decadent. Value: Exceptional for inventive, expertly-prepared and presented food and drink. Atmosphere: Organically convivial. Fixtures in the bar and dining room areas are magnificent, even opulent, without giving off any pretension or coldness. The music playlist stays fresh, at a volume which enhances, not overpowers, the vibe. Service: Warm and attentive from everyone; Jen and Chef Joel circulated the room constantly to ensure guest satisfaction; Oscar, Julio, and Bryan expertly helmed the bar and floor.

It was very good experience, food was good and wait staff was excellent.

It has a good atmosphere - and the service was good.
