| - Marche Bacchus is a hidden gem in the desert of Las Vegas. Situated right next to a lake, this restaurant and wine shop is a fabulous place to enjoy a leisurely lunch (or dinner) with excellent company.
For our dining enjoyment, my companion and I shared the Bacchus Grazing Platter ($18, Selection of Imported Cheese, Meats, Lobster Salad, Smoked Salmon, Olives, Fruit, Onion Marmalade served with French Baguette); Salad Bacchus ($8, Goat cheese Croutons, Mesclun salad, Pine Nuts, Beurre Rouge); and the Lobster Avacado Croissant ($9, Celery, sliced Tomatoes and Lemon Vinaigrette).
The Bacchus Grazing Platter was a fabulous choice! They offered three cheeses - brie, blue, and morbier. The morbier was absolutely delicious, but the blue was a bit too crumbly for my choice. This is an excellent choice if you're ordering wine too. (We had to pass, it was our first meal of the day.)
The Lobster Avocado Croissant was stuffed with lots of lobster salad. Very yummy, but I would have wanted a bit more avocado in my sandwich. (It is called a Lobster Avocado Croissant after all.) A side of Caesar salad accompanied this sandwich.
Last to arrive was the Bacchus Salad. After already dining on the wine platter and the sandwich, we could have done without the salad. My companion did enjoy the goat cheese croutons, but the salad was average.
The great thing about this place is that you can go through their wine selection (they are a wine shop after all), pick a bottle of wine and enjoy that bottle with your meal. (There's a $10 corkage fee.)
Service was okay. Our waiter was average. He never bothered telling us the daily special or anything. The waitress who took over his shift was much better and a lot more pleasant. I could hear her interactions with the other diners was much more impressed with her customer service skills than our waiter.
And of course, please sit outside when dining here, especially for lunch. With a shaded area and a mist, it's not hot out and the view of the lake makes it a fabulous place to just sit, relax, eat, drink, and just immerse yourself in the company of your dining companion(s).
It can easily be a romantic spot if you let it be, or go with friends and enjoy a couple of glasses of wine. They are soon to be offering wine tasting events in the near future which I would definitely be interested if I were in the area more often.
Eat, drink, and be merry!
They are open for Sunday brunch (10 am to 3 pm); Lunch (10:30 am to 4 pm) and Dinner (4:30pm-10pm).
