  • After numerous websites telling me that Alize was the best restaurant in Las Vegas, I figured I had to give it a try. After all, it received a Michelin star so my expectations were pretty high. In fact, this was the first Michelin star restaurant I have ever been to. I'll say this up front- Alize is pretty damn good but fell slightly short of my high expectations of what Michelin star restaurants would be like. I got the 7 course tasting menu for $135 to enjoy the real experience so I will go through each menu item in some detail. First, the dissapoint- the bread. For a fancy french restaurant the bread was pretty mediocre with a small variety of plain tasting bread and *HARD* butter which was preposterous. Luckily, the rest of the meal didn't follow the same path. Course 1- Rib Eye Carpaccio Pretty good but not great. It didn't seem to distinguish itself from any carpaccio I have had at other lesser known restaurants. Course 2- Sauteed Foie Gras Fairly tasty but slightly underwhelming. It didn't have all of those intricate and unique flavors that chef's usually add to a dish like this. It had plenty of potentially flavorsome components but most were overpowered by the flavor of Foie Gras. This certainly isn't a bad thing. Course 3- Seared Scallop Getting to the good stuff. This was pretty delicious. Perfectly made scallop and a lot of flavor. I only wish there was more than one :( Course 4- Pork Belly I'll admit that I've had better pork belly before but this was pretty delicious and very flavorsome. The vegetables in particular were nice accoutrements. Course 5- Lamb Loin Very flavorful and cooked perfectly. Delicious side of sausage too. Course 6- BREBISROUSSE d'ARGENTAL aka fancy cheese I'm not gonna lie, its just fancy cheese. This one in particular was like a very salty brie cheese. A bite with all of the components on the plate made it quite tasty. Course 7- Chocolate Souffle This dessert was about what I expected. Very light and tons of chocolate but was clearly inferior to the peanut butter cheesecake my dining companion had. At the end of the meal they serve little candy trinkets that were pretty good and were a nice light ending to the meal. Obviously the view is great and you can see most of the strip. So, if you are one of those people that really care about ambiance and all that, you will enjoy this restaurant. In the end, I thought that the 7 course tasting menu was slightly below my expectations BUT I'd definitely return to the restaurant for a regular entree of the Lamb Loin or Seared Scallop.
