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 Tuesday that things were underway quickly with guests enjoying Cocktails alongside vibrant Gazpacho as well as a one-bite “Tortilla” with Blood Sausage.
Seafood-centric as usual, though Ham and housemade Bread was followed by Pork Pate and a shaped Cracker, Octopus “Head Cheese” gets a jolt from Vinegar-based Sauce prior to Bluefin Tuna Ceviche in Szechuan Pepper Tiger’s Milk.
Taking a chance with fried Squash Blossoms beneath Hamachi Sashimi, discrepant temperatures and textures bridged by Kimchi, burnt Leeks on Bread proved brilliant en route to Tomato Tartare with Granita and Crudites.
Never let down by Eggs and Caviar, a follow up of Octopus with Corn Donuts dancing amidst textures crisp and creamy, Cuddlefish continued leaning Mexican with burnt Onion Mole prior to Lobster Rice and Iberico Wellington with Prunes and Pine Nuts.
Already ranging from Latin America to Korea all-new Desserts continued to show Chef Oscar’s unparalleled talents, first Pluot Cobbler with Cheese Ice Cream plus Umeboshi and then in a deconstructed Ice Cream Sandwich with Agrodolce.
