Society Cafe Encore

Popped in here just for a quick bite not expecting anything grand … Wow what a nice surprise lump crab meat salad was divine! Simple grilled salmon with quinoa was excellent! Service superb! Décor gorgeous! Nice start Encore Hotel!

OMG– not only will your taste palette be utterly satisfied with the delicious selection of food but your eyes will be extremely satisfied with the beautiful décor and scenery.
this place is just a little gem inside the encore hotel.
When I first came here I couldn’t stop looking around, the beautiful textiles the rich textures in the pops of color are so intriguing.
Now onto the food, I have been to this Kathy several times and everything was beyond delicious I will definitely come back here when I am visiting this hotel

Where do I start? First off I just have to say that the dining options at the Wynn are the best! I’ve loved pretty much all of it and Society Café is no exception.
We decided to stop in for breakfast before we checked out of the hotel. Our waitress was very friendly. Service was courteous and prompt. I started off the meal with a pumpkin spice latte and my bf got a mocha. I’ve never tried the pumpkin spice drink from Starbucks big I’m sure this place puts them to shame. Next we decided to share an order of the honey brioche with walnuts. One word to describe it is heavenly! So good! Better than any waffle or pancake I’ve ever tasted. Pure sweet deliciousness of caramelized honey and fluffy bread with some type of cheese cake whipped frosting that complemented it perfectly, I’ll be fantasizing about that one for awhile lol
On to the breakfast. I ordered a basic breakfast of eggs, potatoes, toast and sausage. It was exceptionally yummy for such a simple breakfast. You could tell that the quality of the food is really good but that goes for most of the food at the Wynn. My bf got the filet minion sliders. Apparently they were featured on some tv show of the best things to eat before you die and with good reason! The were really good. So fresh o got burned by the juice coming out of the steak lol a small price to pay for such deliciousness.

Loved it !
I’m glad I tried it out cause I’ll definitely go back again when visiting vegas. We had an Egg white frittata, Greek yogurt parfait and Seasonal fruits.
The dishes were very tasty, fresh and the service was excellent. They deserve an extra star for seating you down in a few minutes and you dint have to starve in a long line like every where else.

The service here is great. The food is good ‘tho the portions per pricing is a tad lackluster in the bang for the buck quantity for the quality.
I had the lunch special fixed price 3 course which was tasty but for the approx $ 25 was a bit not fulfilling in terms of appeasing my appetite to get me filled or my hunger satisfied with a full belly compared to what that same money could have gotten elsewhere (like the Wynn Buffet Lunch for roughly the same price and that’s AYCE with drinks, appetizers, soups, salads, entrees and deserts)
It’s a reliable place, and the pretzel bread sticks are delicious. It has nice décor. I’d rank this * * * Three Stars as A-​OKAY which I’d recommend and come back to. It’s not necessarily a place I’d crave and think about as a must return to place, but it’s also a place where I’d revisit if others wanted to go or the timing and opportunity was right. There’s a lot of great dining options at the Encore and Wynn however too.
I think if they upped their portion sized and left the pricing as is, it would be a lot more fulfilling, satisfying and desirable to crave.

The vegan burger looked (and probably) tasted like those crap mystery burgers served in grade school cafeterias in the 90’s. And the vegan milkshake was awful. The Wynn/​Encore should consider updating this offering, I would not recommend it to anyone.

We had decided to have my friends birthday dinner here. The menu looked good and the décor was so cute! When I called to make the reservations, I mentioned we would be celebrating my friends birthday/​engagement. I was asked if I wanted to get a 14-​layer chocolate cake that feeds 6 — they could put writing on it. I asked if I could call back and have that added and I was told that would not be a problem. A few days after, I asked my husband to call back and ask for the cake. At first, they didn’t know what he was talking about, but eventually said they would include the cake.
When we arrived for dinner, service started off great. Our servers were attentive and the wait for the food was reasonable. Soon after ordering, I checked in with the main server about the cake. I was told they ran out of it but they would have someone go to the bakery they get it from and bring back something special since we were celebrating a birthday/​engagement. Throughout dinner, the main server kept checking in with me about the cake. Unfortunately, there was some disconnect after we finished with dinner.
A few people in our party ordered the filet mignon dinner that came with dessert (beignets). After our plates were cleared, it took F O R E V E R to get the desserts. I even had to ask about the cake again and the main server told me it was coming — it was going to be some kind of Snickers-​like ice cream cake. After 30 minutes of waiting for the beignets, the cake was served. It definitely was not a Snickers-​like ice cream and it sure did not feed 6. It was a normal individual-​sized chocolate dessert. And the server did not even address my friend’s fiancé when he brought it out. I mean, after all, why should the fiancé take part in celebrating his engagement?
Despite the decline in service, and lies about the cake, the food was pretty good and I liked the ambiance.

Society Café Encore offers a slightly more casual venue for brunch. It’s a more open and airy sort of area, and service was less formal than somewhere like Tableau.
Sirloin and egg sliders:
(
)
I’d heard great things about these sliders, and our server recommended them to us as well. I liked the cook on the sirloin and it did taste like quality beef, but the overall concoction was much too heavy for brunch. The bread on the outside was even fried (I believe?), and it felt like a heart attack slider. I might order these again as a late-​night munchie, but perhaps not as a breakfast or brunch dish.
Egg white frittata with goat cheese:
(
)
The egg white frittata was cooked very well, as egg whites have a tendency to harden very quickly, but these were still soft and springy. The goat cheese was maybe what kept the frittata soft, but I couldn’t taste too much of a distinct flavor. There was a nice ratio of filling to egg whites, and it was a pretty generous portion.
Soufflé pancakes:
(
)
I haven’t ventured too far into pancake territory, as I’m usually a French toast addict, but the addition of «soufflé» was too tempting to resist. The pancakes themselves were very well-​shaped, and I was surprised by how stiff they seemed on the outside. The interior was a little too dense for me to say that it was similar to a soufflé, but the adjusted sweetness of the pancake was palatable.
Society Café Encore was my last stop in Las Vegas before heading home, and it wasn’t a bad meal to leave on. I would be open to venturing back to try some other dishes next time.

Great place to grab some breakfast or lunch! If you’re in the mood for lunch the burgers are a must!
Conveniently located right next to Encore beach club and Surrender.

It’s been a while since the last time I was here… And I’m glad I made it back. Society’s still got it!
I’m trying to remember the last time I enjoyed an all-​vegan «cheeseburger». Yep, it was that good! The patty was surprisingly «meaty», the sweet potato fries were addictive, and the vegan chocolate shake was quite satisfying.
And speaking of satisfying, so was the blackberry margarita! #Yum. It had the perfect balance of sweet and boozy. I’d return just for another one of those!

I was tinkering between a 3 or a 4 for this place but at the end of the day, I leaned toward a 3 as I don’t see myself coming back with the number of other eating options in Vegas.
We had a large group of 15 and they had to split us up into two tables of eight. I ordered the prix fix menu ($ 44) which comes with an app, entrée and dessert.
For $ 8 more– I got the shrimp cocktail and the shrimp in these were luscious, yes luscious. I also tried some of the lobster bisque which was great. When the entrée came out, it was a bit lackluster from a presentation standpoint. The «side» of vegetables was merely two pearl onions and two baby carrots. My friend swapped them for french fries and that was a better steal. I was supremely disappointed in my prime rib. I understand that it probably got cold because they were trying to time it with the rest of the meal… still, I couldn’t fully enjoy eating the prime rib at the barely warm temperature. I figure there wasn’t any reason to send it back since we were on a tight schedule and that piece of meat probably would have gone in the trash.
All in all, decent meal– but it isn’t a must go to on my Vegas visits in the future.

Gosh, I love this place!
Whenever I stay at the Wynn/​Encore and I want a delicious meal in a casual spot, this is where I go. It’s located right off of the main casino floor, serves food for early breakfast, brunch, lunch and late dinner. The atmosphere is very upscale while remaining a casual spot (i.e. you can show up in shorts and tees and catch ESPN on the TVs scattered throughout the bar and dining room).
The menu is American classic by design, and on previous visits, I’ve ordered everything from fresh fruit and a three egg freestyle breakfast, to turkey clubs and filet mignon sliders. They have a lot of selections for breakfast, sandwiches, burgers, salads and a wide variety of entrée options for dinner. Every dish I have ordered has been very, very good. They use quality ingredients and give you good sized portions. And the service has always been super friendly and helpful.
On my most recent visit, they replaced the filet mignon sliders with french dip sliders, so I ordered those. O M G! These are amazing. The beef just melts in your mouth and the slider buns are perfectly toasted. These are a DREAM!
If you’re a dessert fan (like me) you will love the XXXL Chocolate cake (caution: it serves like 3 people) and the fresh, warm donuts!
Overall, if you’re staying at the Wynn/​Encore or just visiting the resort, definitely make this a stop.
Iced tea rating: 4 stars! Delicious tea and plenty o’ refills!
PS — Did I tell you that they serve warm mini pretzel breads at the table? OMG yum!

We enjoyed a lovely Sunday morning brunch at the Society, since we were walking around the Wynn/​Encore to check out the dining options… I really liked the décor and set up inside of the Society… The color scheme, the openness, and the very professional looking employees…
For starters I had a nice cup of coffee to help recharge from a long Vegas night… The menu had a ton of good options but I went for the braised beef short rib hash because I love anything that has hash browns :)
The braised beef was very tender and juicy, it reminded me of a very similar dish that I usually get in Phoenix… It also contained potatoes, mushrooms, onions, peppers and topped with two poached eggs… Just describing the dish is making me wish I could have it every morning…
It also came with really good toast or grilled country bread, as they call it…
While our server was great, he seemed to be having some hiccups with the RHOLV seated next to us. They provided some very entertaining comments and complaints and so we felt bad for our server. I mean, it’s not his fault that they have to watch their finances and have their check split x amount of ways…

I worked a job and my boss wanted to take our crew out to a nice dinner. It was 9:30pm when I started looking, and I found out Society Café was still serving until 11pm. We were originally going to go somewhere else, but we had some vegans in our group, and I found out most/​all restaurants at Wynn/​Encore have vegan options.
We rolled in a little after 10pm, and I apologized for making such a large reservation (11 people) for so late. They said it was no problem, but I told them to kick us out if it got too late. The staff was amazing, serving us food and drinks until way after 11pm and really not seeming to mind at all.
It happened to be Restaurant Week so I enjoyed a 3 course meal including shrimp cocktail, prime rib, and donuts. I got to sample other people’s meals as well as a few appetizers, and everything was great.
The whole meal was such an unexpected surprise. I had been to Society Café a long time ago for happy hour and really never thought about them for a full meal. As an added bonus, the restaurant has an open layout so we had great people watching during our meal.
Thanks again to the staff for tolerating such a large, rowdy group. You guys are great!

Casual dining at its finest, and of course I would expect nothing less from the Wynn-​Encore; however, less was what we got.
I went the light route with the Egg White Frittata ($ 18). Fluffy, light, yet satiating, this was a decent way to begin the day. The goat cheese was a nice touch and didn’t overpower the rest of the frittata with its bold flavor.
My boyfriend ordered The Hunter and Gatherer Omelette ($ 18). The potatoes would’ve been better served hot than warm. In addition, the slices of toast he received had cooled off by the time they arrived at our table.
I wouldn’t say breakfast was a bust, but it could’ve been much better.

For only $ 11, I was able to eat a snazzy restaurant staffed by employees with impressive customer service skills. You can’t beat that kind of bargain! The Wynn Burger is a Vegan burger that comes with a generous side of fries and a tasty chocolate shake. It’s basically a full on meal. It’s important to note the difference between the Wynn Vegan burger, which is $ 11, and the Veggie Burger ($ 17), which is served a la carte.
WYNN BURGER: It’s a Gardein patty with vegan cheese. For some reason it doesn’t come with lettuce. It’s smallish in size and looks identical to a SpongeBob Krabby Patty. The presentation of the meal overall was executed perfectly. ³⁄₅
FRIES: Just the right amount of fries! 3.5÷5
CHOCOLATE SHAKE: On the thinner side, but delicious. My favorite part of the meal. ⁴⁄₅
VIBE: Society Café is one of the Encore’s more casual restaurants. The color palette includes hot pink, black, and white & feels very trendy. It’s a nice looking place! ⁴⁄₅
SERVICE: The hostess draped a napkin over my lap as I was seated and I never needed to ask the server for anything. The server knew what I needed before I did! ⁵⁄₅
Worth a Return Visit?
Society Café, like everything at the Wynn, is priced on the more expensive side. I feel like I like this place because I scored a cheap lunch with great service. I’d be interested in coming back but only for lunch!
Unilocal 100 CHALLENGE 2015: #93

Great restaurant inside Encore by the casino. Reservations are not needed and it was fairly quick service. I had dinner here around 9pm on a Saturday night and only waited a few minutes for a table. I also had breakfast here at 9am on a Sunday morning (with a reservation) and it was steady, but not insanely packed. The décor was bright and trendy with a good vibe.
Now, onto the food…
On my first visit I had the vegan tomato bisque as an appetizer –it was fantastic! I was shocked that it was vegan, but still so creamy! For my entrée I had the Wynn «burger» with fries and raspberry sorbet. The burger was good, Gardein «beef» patty, vegan cheese and all the typical burger toppings and a side of fries. Very tasty and easy on the wallet. Usually it comes with a shake, but I don’t like chocolate so the server offered sorbet instead… it was great! The burger, fries and shake meal is only $ 11! With my soup my total was a little over $ 22, but that’s cheap for a Vegas meal!
Onto my breakfast the next day…
I started with a green juice for $ 10. I’m a big green juice fan, so $ 10 for a fresh juice didn’t seem too bad. Well, this is where Society gets knocked down a star. I saw the bartender pour it in my glass from a big plastic jug under the bar. For $ 10/​glass I think it should have been fresh pressed!
For my entrée I had the Florentine Tofu Benedict. It was really good and a healthy option as well. It had a great smokey flavor and I really enjoyed it. It came with a cucumber salad on the side, which was okay, but I think a side of fresh fruit would have been a better choice. With my juice and Benedict, my total was about $ 28 before tip. A little pricy due to the juice situation, but I was still pleased.

A solid place for a high quality brunch!
Fresh berries bowl
— although some of the bowl bottom berries were rotten, i appreciate that they had real raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, and blueberries, it was a refreshing way to stay the morning off
Braised rib hash
— very well marinated and flavorful, lots of beef juices and egg yolk creaminess soaking into the potatoes. Probably the best hash I’ve had thus far in vegas
Eggs benedict
— had excellent premium ham that was quite fatty like bacon but sweet like honey baked or deep fried. The poached egg was done perfectly and presentation was beautiful
Service was pretty standard but not top notch as i was expecting on the part of the waitress, however the hostess was very gracious and matched the quality of the restaurant with her attitude and smile

Experience: Met a group of 8 folks here for lunch. Parked at the Encore Valet, and the walk wasn’t too far.
Facility: this is located inside the Encore, so the casino is very upscale and clean. The restaurant followed suit.
For lunch it’s a little more casual, but definitely a nice atmosphere.
Service: very good service. They did get our drink order right away, but since there were several people meeting, and some did not show, I think the empty seats kept them from checking on us to take our order.
Food: I am a huge lobster fan, so it was difficult for me to chose between the lobster roll and the highly rated Unilocal reviewed Mac and cheese bites.
Peer pressure prevailed, and I went with the Mac and Cheese bites. Man, they did not disappoint. They were crispy on the outside, creamy in the middle, and really sent over the top with the truffle oil aioli for dipping. Very good!!!
Overall: I would definitely come back again… I have to try the lobster roll after all, right?!
BTW, I must mention, I love all the butterfly mosaics in the Encore!

We went Sunday for a late lunch and were seated in a great both facing the TV. The pretzels were such a lovely treat! The waitress was lovely and helpful. She handed us lunch menus and I asked for the vegan one, which she brought off and was really careful and precise in taking the rest of my order. BF got the pretzels right away but I waited a little longer. WORTH THE WAIT. The décor is adorable. I got the vegan burger with milkshake and fries, shocked that it was only $ 10!!! My boyfriend got some really humungous burger with avocado and egg and he loved it. I also got a drink because it was happy hour and they were half off.
Probably one of my favorite, if not the best, vegan meal I’ve had at the Wynn restaurants so far!
