  • It helps to know the right people. And my friend who lives in Vegas is "right people." Her Harrah's Diamond player's card allowed us to bypass a long line of hungry tourists and get a better table. If I had to stand in line at Le Cafe, I would have been very unhappy. We were seated at a big round table on the "patio." By "patio," of course, I mean "the area of the casino floor designated for dining at Le Cafe Ile Saint Louis." It makes me laugh every time. They even call it "al fresco" dining on their website. The cafe facade and the dining room do indeed remind you of old Paris, but the "patio" reminds you of that time you forgot to hit soft 17 against the dealer's 8. That's always a no-no, by the way. Anyway, I was craving meat, so I ordered a 20 oz. prime rib, medium rare, and a side salad. The prime rib was around $25, and the side salad - another $3.99. The steak came with a baked potato, but the waiter was happy to replace the baked potato with some mashed potatoes. I got some vegetables on the plate, too. My friend ordered their "early bird" special - filet Mignon medallions with pommes frites for only $12.99. If I hadn't been so hungry and if I had actually liked filet, I would have totally ordered that. What a deal. Our entrees arrived 15 minutes later. Her filet was indeed rare and drenched in sauce. My prime rib was huge! I know what a 20 oz prime rib looks like, and that was no 20 oz. steak. The quality of the meat was definitely above average, but it was slightly overcooked. It was a good steak, even though it was prepared medium. I thought about sending it back, but decided against making a scene. I was having a good time, and the steak was darn good. The mashed potatoes and the vegetables were pretty dull and lacked flavor, seasoning and salt. When we were done with our meal, it took us another 15 minutes to flag down our waiter. He seemed to have gone on a break, and the other waiters had absolutely no interest in helping us. In fact, they chose to do the easiest thing and just ignore us altogether. Le Cafe Ile Saint Louis is a cute enough place, and I can even see paying a premium for the location and the faux ambiance. However, do not expect a 5-star service or a 5-star meal. Hmm, bad service and overcooked meat--maybe it IS authentic after all . . . :-)
