| - I've lived in the Summerlin area for four years and only just recently heard about this place and had the opportunity to go there. As others have pointed out, $15 for a 5-course meal = INSANE BARGAIN!! This place is like the Costco food court of French Culinary food.
The menu is limited so I pretty much ate the same thing others have described on here. The French Onion Soup was fabulous and loaded with melty cheese on top, and the bread came with herb-butter (yum!). There were 2 salad courses; I asked for one of the salads without the chopped egg on top, and basically someone in the kitchen just used their hand to remove most of (but not all of) the egg, which was kind of a turn-off for me, but oh well. The filet mignon was fantastic and well-seasoned, and the bearnaise sauce only made it better; it also came with mashed potatoes and veggies. For dessert, my dining companion and I each got one of the dessert options and shared -- the pumpkin creme brulee was great but not what I was expecting (more like a scoop of creamy custard than true creme brulee with the caramelized sugar) and the profiteroles filled with vanilla ice cream were delish.
The interior of the space is very clean and modern; the dining area is separated from the kitchen with glass, so you can see into the cooking space where the students are preparing everything, which is cool. The students are also the servers and they provided adequate service throughout the meal.
Anyways, the overall experience was great and at $15 you absolutely can't find a better deal for such good food. Definitely check it out, you'll be so glad you did!! :)
