| - On my last night of the staycation, we dined here. We were staying at Ballys, which is attached to Paris. Lately, Ballys cafe closes at 2 PM, making Le Cafe the cafe of Ballys and Paris.
The wait to be seated was not the fastest, the selection was not the best, and the prices are high. But what else is new in the world of Strip cafes ?
Just like the Paris Hotel and Casino, I add a star for a well done job on the theme. In my case, the Paris theme helps create a disbelief from reality. The attention to the Paris theme, kind of made me feel like I was dining in a Paris cafe. If this was an ordinary looking cafe, then I'd be turned off by the wait to be seated and limited menu.
As far as table service, no problems. Oscar was a professional and attentive waiter.
The steak special was decent. Just like the buffet in Paris, the potatoes are superb. I would of appreciated more potatoes than green beans with a fairer portion of steak.
An interesting observation is that the prices here are similar to the far less fancy cafes. Including the Flamingo Cafe.
If you are up to getting a good cafe meal at a decent price, I recommend an off Strip casino such as the Orleans. If you want decent food at inflated prices in a well-done Paris themed cafe, I recommend Le Cafe.
