| - I wish I could eat this meal every day! (Though it would be horrible for the waistline)
Had the opportunity to sit out in the patio where you have front row seats (from the back) of the fountain show. The location was enough to make this a 5 star location. Every 15 minutes, you are enchanted by the fountains of Bellagio. What else do you need? You can get full of that! But luckily, this place serves amazing food as well.
Seafood Platter: A medley of raw oysters, raw clams, lobster, king crab legs, mussels, shrimp and a mixture of dipping sauces. The oysters were extremely fresh and sweet. The lobster was cooked well. Not chewy. The king crab legs were brine-y but also sweet in flavor. The shrimp may have been one of the best shrimp cocktails I have ever had.
Filet Mignon: Ordered medium rare and it came out medium rare. What a shocker. No matter where I go, it's always so hard to get a steak delivered to your preference. The meat was tender, not salty. Dip it in their special soy dipping sauce, which the waiter said goes well with anything, and you are in carnivore heaven. After the platter, you don't have any more space for the whole filet but you will want to eat it all.
Truffle Mashed Potatoes: Creamy, rich goodness with the essence of truffle throughout. SOOOO Good. A must try when you are there. Sprinkles of truffle on top. Be shady and just scoop the top layer so you can get all the truffle flavor that your taste buds can handle.
The service was also amazing. Waiters (and waitresses) were very attentive: always refilling water, refilling wine, providing details of the dishes and always asking if everything is OK. Very polite and also very personable.
Had a great time at Prime. The location was already amazing but the food and service topped it all off.
