| - If you are looking to have a fantastic french dinner in a gorgeous setting, then Bouchon is the place to go. We made a reservation the day before on Open Table and got the time we wanted (it was a Tuesday after all). When we got there we asked to be seated outside and with luck, they had a table big enough for our party of 6. The outdoor seating area is on a raised balcony in the same courtyard as the pool. You would never know though, because the landscaping and design of the area makes you feel like you are in an olive tree filled Italian Piazza with ancient columns and little nooks for sitting. In any case, the atmosphere is great and with the weather that Vegas has, you can't go wrong sitting outside.
Anyway on to the food and drink. They serve some classic cocktails (I had the Singapore Sling), new cocktails, wine and beer. The menu comes on a piece of brown paper (similar to butcher's paper) and it's wrapped around your napkin. Great selection of food. I had French Onion soup and a dish that included scallops and giant capers. We did share lots of other dished including the foie gras (probably the best I have ever had), ceviche octopus, duck, ham hock, and so on. All of the food was excellently prepared and absolutely delicious. Sadly we did not have room for dessert....
All in all, I highly recommend it. It's not cheap, but it is well worth it.
