| - I had dinner here with a friend recently and both the service and food were impeccable!
It was a little hard to find as it's tucked away inside the Bellagio, past the conservatory and right before the bridge connecting Bellagio to the Vdara (where I stayed). While waiting for my friend to arrive, I was looking around and really dug the soft, intimate setting and décor. They gave me a cocktail menu on - get this - an iPad! Snazzy!
I ordered the Black Crush cocktail which was the most delicious thing ever. I usually don't finish my drinks (I know...) but I finished this one :).
When my friend arrived, we were greeted by two of the best servers. We weren't sure which was our server since both waited on us, but both reminded me of warm, funny uncles you'd see at family dinners. Just detailed, attentive service!
For bread, they brought out this delicious garlic naan with the best chutney dipping sauce. So good that I wanted to take some home with me but when I asked, they said they didn't bottle it. Management, if you're reading this, you should!
Anyway, we ordered the TLC sushi roll to start, and an order of Scuna Bay Salmon to share. We were told the fish was really fresh and it was!
We even met a couple of nice neighbors next door, two colleagues that worked at Netflix and had a nice little chat with them. Gentlemen, if you're reading this, you still owe me a job offer! ;)
At the end of our meal, our "uncles" even gave us free truffles for dessert, which was quite nice as our male neighbors didn't get any! Haha. And they nicely packed bread and chutney for us in a fancy box, per our embarrassing request. All in all, a terrific meal and I would definitely return again while I'm in town.
The setting is very quiet, judging by how our neighbors could overhear our conversation and make conversation with us based on it, but it's okay because I guess that's what happens in Vegas!! The prices are also very reasonable, considering it's inside the Bellagio.
However, I would recommend the restaurant more for couples than a large group as it's more romantic than "fun." Just a nice place to have a quiet dinner.
5 stars! You will see me here again!
