  • Our party decided to do the degustation menu. Here is what I think... First course, Lobster salad, there was nothing not to like when it came to the bright clean and refreshing flavor but when you bite into the lobster the only thing that came to mind is chewy and rubbery as if it were boiled/poached way too long. Next course, the much anticipated foie gras which sadly came cold and rather under cooked with a texture that was flat, lumpy and fleshy. Despite that the paring of the spiced bread and asian pear was terrific and unique. The bass was surprisingly my favorite course, it was everything you want a fish dish to be. Light bursting with delicate flavor yet subtle enough to not over power the fish itself. Although I would have imagined the paupiette to be crisp it was more soggy and soaked through, yet again another dish where taste over ruled texture. My main course the glazed duck came remarkably short of expectation by any standard. Again it came very cold (not even warm) lacking all flavor and texture. There seemed to be no balance in this dish. I was confused on whether or not the skin was supposed to have been crispy but got stale or was just stale. It was most likely cooked to the perfect med-rare and could have been amazing right off the line. My assumption is because of the lack of enough waitstaff the dish was probably sitting for too long before being served. Here the desserts very much out shone the rest of dinner. If I had to go back I would make this place a stop after dinner just for dessert and drinks in the bar area. The souffle was probably the best I've ever had . It was impossibly airy and light, total perfection! The gigantic chocolate ball reminded me of a ferrero rocher de-ca-dent! On to service... As noted earlier there seemed to be an obvious lack in enough wait staff. They were courteous and not over bearing yet, they seemed unrelaxed and somewhat stressed and frantic. Ambience was interestingly enough a bit disheveled but fun with a circus tent atmosphere. We also did the wine paring which put our bill for two well over $400 making the value to service to food to ambience ratio much lower for a restaurant doting a reputation of such a high calibre. In the end with all the amazing places Las Vegas has to offer its a wonder how they can remain on the forefront of so many "best-of" lists. Great place to eat once just to say that you did. Good luck on your dining adventures!
