| - An absolute delight and an affordable treat if you want to indulge in fine dining without breaking the bank. I did a lot of research on French restaurants along the Strip and the price here to do pre-fixe dining is very reasonable considering the quality of food and level of service. Coming here is an experience. As soon as you enter the restaurant via the elevator ride up along the Eiffel Tower, you are transported to a world away from the loud hubbub of the casino floor and smoky smells of Sin City. Dress up in your finest and get ready for a night of elegance and affordable luxury.
As soon as you exit the elevator, there is someone there ready to take your coat and you are welcomed with an open view of the kitchen. It's glaringly bright, clean, and lively with the hustle and bustle of busy chefs running around. Then you step off to the side into the actual restaurant, which has a romantic ambiance with small tables, plush seating, and dim lighting. I made reservations for 5:30pm for 2, which gave us a nice table right in front of the windows for a clear view of the Bellagio fountains. It was spectacular. The tables allow for you to get close to your dining companion, which is perfect for a romantic date or just having an intimate conversation with a friend. We both opted to do the tasting menu for around $120ish per person.
The food was absolutely spectacular. The timing of the dishes was coordinated well so that we could enjoy the food, view, and conversation without feeling rushed. Everything we tasted was delicious and the presentation was beautiful and elegant. My favorites were the venison chop marinated in red wine, crayfish and shellfish soup, and lobster salad. All very memorable. For dessert, I had the classic chocolate souffle which was perfectly done. I also tried the apple dessert and the flavor combination was great. Their menu looks great. There's something to suit every palate.
If you're looking to try some delicious food in Vegas in an elegant restaurant with great views and personalized attention, I highly recommend coming to the Eiffel Tower Restaurant. Thanks for the food memories!
