To dine here I traveled from afar
In my relentless quest for boudin noir
As well as the finest steak tartare
My palate, it was far from glutted
I left this place completely gutted
Authentic French ? 'Tis but a ruse
And Thomas Keller - J' ACCUSE !
Seriously - no boudin noir, and the server said they had not had it on the menu for over a year. No steak tartare. As Queen Victoria once said "No pudding and no fun"
I can't complain too much as we walked in prime time Saturday evening with no reservations, got a space at the bar and enjoyed oysters and a corpse reviver.
We went back for a final breakfast Tuesday a.m. before getting out of Dodge - breakfast was good, and the boudin blanc was decent enough ( but boudin noir it ain't !)- but it took almost an hour to get the food.
I think in the last 10 or 12 years the rest of Vegas has caught up with what was once a stand-out.
