Editorial Review for VooDoo Cafe at Rio – by Guillermo Aicinena
In Short
The decor is evocative of a voodoo den, with black walls covered with cryptic fluorescent symbols illuminated by black lights. Custom sconces and chandeliers add to the wackiness. A curving metal staircase connects the cafe to the lounge and turns the place into a rooftop party. Diners come for the Strip views, as well as the Creole- and Cajun-influenced seafood dishes, like catfish and lobster, and the seafood and pork soup.

I didn't know much about the restaurant beforehand. I had won it in a contest. I had dinner with a Chippendale from the show at the RIO. In case you are curious I won it on C-Squad i-squad.c-m/link/link/ MzgwMzkzfDI1OA== The location was picked by the company. I have to say that the cocktail I had was delicious. It was like a mojito. I wish I could remember the name of it but it had raspberries and mint in it. I enjoyed the food and especially the view. I had stayed at the RIO before and had been there many times to see the Chippendales perform there but had never eaten there. I would recommend it to any one for special occasions such as my dream date with a Chippendale but the food and service was worth the price even if I didn't have to pay (this time.) Thanks Chippendales!

Maybe the good chefs had the night off on my birthday, Dec 23, but the food was definitely below par. Their specialty is steak and mine was overdone (I ordered rare), not especially tasty, and not worth the price. I ordered the mushroom combination and it was also so overcooked they could have come from a can! My brother went with a seafood plate which was better but not spectacular. The best part of the meal was a seafood hush puppy, though it was a bit greasy for a quality restaurant. The service was good but I would skip the restaurant next time and just enjoy the Voodoo Lounge instead..it was excellent fun for the outside couches and view, great drinks, and talented bartenders.
Pros: service
Cons: food quality
