| - Amazing place for brunch!
I really could gush all day about how wonderful an experience it was to dine at Bouchon. Start to finish it was a flawless meal. From service to location to the meal itself, I couldn't have been more satisfied.
To start, I must give a personal section of this review to our server Doug. Sir, you understand what people are looking for from waitstaff during their dining experience; calm, charming, attentive, and knowledgeable. All the right notes to leave a pair of ladies never feeling bothered or frustrated, and wishing they had more time to visit again.
Next, location. Although I found Bouchon a bit difficult to find - had to ask for directions - I was very pleased with it's quiet location after arriving. Instead of being among the hussle and bussle of the rest of the The Venetian, Bouchon is tucked away from the traffic of The Grand Canal Shoppes and casino. The perfect location for my taste, especially if I'm visiting before my first cup of coffee. ;)
Last, but far from least, the meal. Being that my mother and I visited during the brunch hours, we both partook in one of the hot beverages to start. I opted for my go-to latte, and my mother chose the hot chocolate. Both were perfectly heated and offered balanced chocolate to milk or espresso to milk ratios, in both our opinions. I definitely wouldn't mind starting more days with one of those lattes, for sure! For our entrees, my mother ordered the Belgian waffle and I ordered the special of rock shrimp hash. Sadly, she didn't give me one bite of waffle (so greedy!), but the hash was superb. The shrimp were sweet and abundant, the sauce was amazing sopped up with the toast points, and the potatoes were nicely crisped. Absolutely no complaints.
I'm so glad I got to experience Bouchon on my most recent visit to LV. The hype is truly an accurate portrayal of this gem of a restaurant.
