Opened in 2018, with Anima by EDO debuted early 2022 and since a JBFA Semifinalist, EDO Gastro Tapas & Wine remains Las Vegas’ most exciting Restaurant thanks to its unrivaled ability to look backwards while at the same time pushing boundaries rarely approached by off-Strip dining.
Inspired by Catalonian traditions, Chef Oscar Amador Edo’s upbringing in Barcelona gifting him with a respect for diverse Ingredients and an ability to craft poignant bites that highlight rather than hide them, it was as a party of three that guests were accommodated near the back, GM Roberto Liendo charged with creating a Menu Degustacion including both regularly offered items and nightly inspirations.
An acronym for “Extra Day Off,” though EDO itself is open from 5pm until 9pm daily, it was with most of the Restaurant’s other 32 seats full by 6:00 on Wednesday that things were underway quickly with guests enjoying Sparkling Wine alongside vibrant Gazpacho as well as one-bite Dungeness Crab Salad and Caviar atop Chicken Skins and Crème Fraiche.
Less Seafood-centric than usual, a cone with the essence of Catalonian Tortilla followed by Pork Pate and a shaped Cracker, imported Fuet rests above delicate Tomato Espuma while Octopus “Head Cheese” gets a jolt from Vinegar-based Sauce.
Complimenting the next round with housemade Coca Bread and three Spreads, Bluefin Tuna with Asparagus an inspired pairing before the more modernist sheet of White Asparagus over Mussels and Oysters, fans of “Prosciutto e Melone” will find lots to love about EDO’s iteration featuring Jamon and Kumquat Leche de Tigre.
Next serving thin slices of Cuttlefish with Mushrooms and fragrant Garum, flavors impossible to find elsewhere in Sin City, Octopus in a clarified Noodle peaks out amidst Romesco and Gallega Sauce prior to Cod Cheeks and Iberico Pork marinated in Koji adjacent savory Doughnuts.
Innovative from start to finish, Mango Sorbet with Mezcal Pepitas cleansing guests’ palates, Desserts remain complex yet spectacular as Caramelized Pineapple pairs to Duck Liver and Hazelnut Ice Cream before sweet Doughnuts atop Pernod Espuma.
