But that’s not all … because what would a party be without some indulgent treats, and this one brings a variety. Guests can satisfy their sweet tooth at the decadent dessert station, which features a Pinkbox doughnut wall; made-to-order cotton candy; white-chocolate fountain with Oreo cookies, Rice Krispies treats and marshmallows, plus strawberries and pineapple for dipping; Andiron’s candy bars; and lemon-blueberry tarts.
No need to feel guilty about indulging, though, because you can work it all off dancing through the evening to DJ-provided music.
Andiron Steak & Sea, the creation of lauded Las Vegas restaurateur Elizabeth Blau and her husband, chef Kim Canteenwalla, offers a sophisticated flair in a pleasing and inviting neighborhood-restaurant setting in Downtown Summerlin.
Presenting their interpretation of a modern approach to the classic steakhouse, Andiron is the couple’s second dining hot spot — Honey Salt is the other — that they currently own and operate on the westside of Las Vegas. Offering a delectable blend of classic and contemporary, Andiron is “an homage to all things grilled, roasted, shucked and seared,” according to its owners.
