I am a huge fan of Julian Serano. In fact, these days I will go to Vegas just because I love the restaurant so much. I discovered Julian Serranos restaurant about four years ago and have gone back many times ever since. Julian's also has a new restaurant over at Bellagio called Lago. That's Italian food and it's terrific. I went there for my first time a month ago. His restaurants are divine. Definitely a little bit splurge worthy but... Worth it. I recommend this place for all sorts of occasion- going out with coworkers, a date, or even just dining with your friends. The bartender makes terrific drinks and the menu items are always amazing.
