| - I celebrated my post birthday in Las Vegas with dinner reservations here. It was such a GREAT birthday dinner. Upon looking upon and entering the large doors to the restaurant, it almost seemed that you are taken into an elite locate. My friend and I were seated next to the window and magic began.
Starting with the champagne cart service to the food. Everything was wonderful. I decided to forgo my non-dairy diet for this meal, to enjoy the true experience. We both ordered the menu prestige and I had the special wine pairing. The waiter explained each dish on arrival, as well as the wine pairing. The bread cart server paired the bread with each dish for us so that it would complement each other. Not paired with the dish was the bacon bread. Not that I eat bacon a lot, but this bread was good. Nice, chunky pieces of bacon on the top of the little muffin.
My favorite of the 10 course meal, though all were delicious, would be the Foie-Gras with radish leaves and the Artichoke and Black Truffle soup. Both were rich and tasty. I died and went to heaven after eating the Foie-Gras dish and then died once again after finishing the soup.
The service here is excellent throughout the evening. When I asked for a take home menu, the waiter gave me the restaurant menu. What a nice surprise touch.
But the best surprise of this evening was Tyra Banks sitting right in back of my table. She looked awesome. When she and her guest sat down for dinner my friend and I were texting away to everyone.
The only thing that I question is there dress code, as they require a jacket for men. But as we left the restaurant, I saw a guy wearing a T-shirt with no jacket anywhere. Maybe the have gotten lax on this. Overall it is a great place. Expensive, but worth it.
