Superfrico Restaurant – Cosmopolitan Las Vegas NV – Just Weird

Superfrico calls themselves an Italian American psychedelic restaurant and bar that is located in the Cosmopolitan hotel and casino on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada. I’ve read very good reviews for the food and that it is almost like a show with dinner………So I thought why not?

We entered.

It’s a little dark inside. It is moderately loud with a disk jockey playing records. Some colorful lights are all over. There is a person walking around with a full length penguin mask……….slightly weird.

We ordered the hamachi crudo to start with….

The first piece of fish that I tasted I had to spit out because it had a strong fish taste that it shouldn’t have. This got sent back.

We got a Sicilian salad instead.

This salad was light and fresh tasting. It contained fennel, onion, citrus, candied pine nuts, olive gremolata, and fennel vinaigrette.

During dinner we see a few characters waltz threw the restaurant.

My main was the eggplant parmesan rollatini.

It’s very small…..but it’s almost very good! I three thin small rolled eggplant slices stuffed with a fresh good quality ricotta cheese that is on top of acidic tomato sauce and topped with parmesan, parmesan fricos, and crisp basil.

We also shared a side order of mushrooms.

Side of roasted mushrooms

The mushrooms sounded interesting because they were made with sherry vinegar, shoyu, cured and smoked yolks. These were pretty good with a nice rich flavors.

My husband had the beef cheek rigatoni.

It was slightly disappointing because the pasta was over cooked. Beef cheeks usually have a great tenderness to them and an extra good beef flavor but the beef here could pass (taste wise) like pot roast. Also the mushrooms weren’t nearly as flavorful as from the side order of roasted mushrooms.

Superfrico they say that they are an American Italian Psychedelic Restaurant…..

I thought it just was WEIRD.
