"I am creating dishes that will complement Andrea's fun, high-energy and interactive dining experience," said Chef Elevado. "I envision people eating much like I do when I go out with friends, sharing together family style. Dishes like crispy crab and scallop, truffled ponzu rock shrimp tempura, and, of course, Wagyu sliders are perfect to share. My goal is to make everyone's meal at Andrea's as exciting and memorable as their night out at Surrender Nightclub."
Diners may opt for an array of fresh shellfish on ice and enjoy a wide range of dim sum pot stickers, dumplings, rolls, and scallion pancakes that can be paired with colorful salads, noodles, fried rice variations and other tempting side dishes. Elevado's menu features something for every taste, including classically prepared steaks, seafood, poultry and vegan options.
Elevado returns to Las Vegas after serving as Executive Chef at L'Ermitage Beverly Hills. Previously, he was at the helm of the kitchen at Social House in Las Vegas. Elevado also enjoyed a nine-year stint at Nobu, first at Nobu NYC under Chef Nobu Matsuhisa and then later as Executive Chef at Nobu Las Vegas, where he earned numerous accolades, including the Mobil Four-Star Award.
