Yes, it is expensive. You are fine dining while perched eleven floors up overlooking the heart of Strip (including every lady's favorite: the Bellagio fountains). Get over it. I was a bit perturbed that you can only secure a widow table via a reservation that is at 5:30 or earlier, but luckily we got one nonetheless. And what a table! As far as a date night, you would be hard pressed to find a better table. The service was very attentive and personable, but I had a major hang-up here. Unless something is jumping out at me, I often rely on the server's opinion and suggestions. It always irks me when the server finds the most expensive option (or close to it) to recommend, and that is what happened here at every step. I realize that it just may be the case that the most expensive everything is the best, but I find it rather unlikely and have been to many 'o joints were this is not the case. The scallop appetizer was outstanding, as were the lamb chops. I did not care for either of the sides (mushroom spaetzle & potatoes gratin), but everything else was great. After reading on how many people harped on the price, I was pleasantly surprised with my visit here and would consider it again for a special night out.
