Adam Perry Lang Out at Robert’s Steakhouse

Adam Perry Lang’s commitment to Carnevino, the new Batali-Bastianich meatery in Las Vegas, has come at a cost: We’ve learned the chef is no longer associated with Robert’s Steakhouse at the Penthouse Executive Club, which we’ve long maintained is the best steakhouse in the city. “It was a great opportunity and fun project to develop,” Perry Lang tells us. “But I’m now focusing my attention on Daisy May's, Carnevino, and everything else beef-related.” Given Lang's famously obsessive commitment to his projects, we can't see how this could have been otherwise. As for who’s minding the store at Robert’s, it’s a case of meet the new boss, same as the old boss: Jayson Marguiles, the former chef de cuisine who ran every aspect of the place day-to-day, has been elevated to executive chef, with his duties (and presumably Robert’s steak) remaining the same as they’ve been.
