  • The ambiance is LOVELY. All of the tables are set facing the fountains of the Bellagio, which are of course quite stunning at night. The service was excellent and left very little to be desired, though they were slow to notice when I'd dropped my fork, or when I was finished with a dish. Nothing major. The food however I felt left a bit to be desired. My husband and I make a point of going to at least two fine dining experiences a year and I felt a bit underwhelmed by the Prix Fixe that is currently available. He ordered the Menu Degustation and had a far better experience. The poached oysters were phenomenal but that is truly the only dish that stood out. The foie gras au torchon was served with blood oranges which succeeded in bringing out the worst flavors in the foie... leaving it gamey. I had the fallow deer as my main, which was again excellent but the pairings on the plate left a great deal to be desired. They had it with caramelized apples and a horrid red cabbage kraut. The apples I found out later were a nod to the fact that the deer had been fed apples on the farm, but I found them too sweet for how mellow the venison was... and the kraut??? WHY? The venison was so delicate and here it was paired with this loud brash side that would have paired better with a sausage or game meat with a robust flavor. It was over powering and I found myself only eating the meat and apples as a dessert. The staff couldn't pick up on the fact that I wasn't enjoying these dishes and didn't realize I was quite done with them until I pointedly asked them to be taken away. But like I said my husband's meal was quite a different story. He enjoyed every dish, and what I tried from his plates seemed far better balanced than what I was served. Perhaps I just chose poorly, but for a 10.00 difference in pricing it seems silly that I should have such a markedly different experience. It pains me to see such wonderful ingredients that are marred by their pairings. Better luck next time I suppose.
