On a trip to Vegas with friends I was tasked with finding a restaurant for dinner. I choose Thomas Keller's Bouchon. We had a bit of difficulty locating the restaurant inside of the Venetian. Despite arriving on time for our reservation, we did end up waiting for a bit to be seated.
The space is lovely. There is a narrow bar area with large mirrors and high tops tables separated partitioned from the main dining area. The service was excellent, the meal even more so. The food arrived beautifully presented. Our group had the steak, the chicken and a lamb that was a special entree. I had the steak with sauteed spinach instead of French fries. I am glad that I did as the garlicky spinach was great. The steak was buttery, cooked perfectly, cut easily for the pink center, and went well with the suggested wine. I tried my friend's chicken. The entire dish was good but the sauce was amazing. Bits of thick cut, rich bacon added to the flavor. Even the brussel sprouts were good. The portions were large but not overwhelming. We split their version of cheesecake for dessert. It came "farm chic" style in a small mason jar. The cheesecake was creamy and delicious, the perfect ending to a meal.
I recommend the experience to others.
