  • A very uneven experience. Some highs and some lows. The first high is the private elevator you take to get up to this place which has a great view of Las Vegas. We had a great waiter who was very enthusiastic about his recommendations and generally was very helpful though at times he was nowhere to be found. There's a serious cocktail and wine program we started the meal with some good cocktails. We had several appetizers, some of which were very, very good. The shrimp francaise is billed on the menu as the best shrimp franchise you've ever eaten. Since I've never had shrimp francaise, I would have to say that they were correct. Seriously though, it was very, very good. These were huge shrimp coated in egg-batter (francaise-style) and served with a creamy lemon sauce. Simply divine. The other appetizers were generally good but not to the rarified level of the shrimp. The bruschetta, grilled octopus, fried calamari and prosciutto with burrata were all fine but not memorable. My pasta starter was the gnocchi with parmesan cream and crispy pancetta. This was delicious. The gnocchi were perfectly chewy and the sauce was agreeably salty, smoky and funky. Excellent. The panzanella salad was not really a panzanella - typically a panzanella salad highlights grilled or toasted bread which soak up a dressing enhanced with the juices of fresh tomatoes. This salad was a green salad with a few croutons. It's false advertising. Our entrees fell short of the mark. I had the veal chop milanese - this was a special of the night. This was a bone-in veal chop that is pounded very thin, breaded in breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese, and fried. It is an impressive piece of meat, pounded so thin so as to be larger than the large serving platter it was served on, but taste-wise it was just a deep fried piece of meat. No capers, no sauce, nothing greens. It was really a weak dish and I regretted getting it immensely. The baked penne entree was more worthy of Stouffer's than an upscale Las Vegas restaurant. Shameful, actually. The filet mignon was properly prepared but the aged balsamico that accompanied it seemed too sour and made the dish very unbalanced. After the debacle of the entrees, we did not stay for dessert. Alas, other than the best shrimp francaise I've ever eaten and a few tasty gnocchi, this was a disappointing experience.
