| - great french bistro
what i ate:
- baguette: i usually dont mention the bread, but this bread was pretty amazing! came out warm with lovely butter and some type of corn orzo salad
- sea scallops gratinee: very flavorful, but decided this was not the best way to eat scallops. the flavor of the scallops was covered by the sauce. although the sauce was amazing. i soaked up every bit with baguette
- steak au poivre: i was expecting a much more peppery and flavorful sauce. i ordered the steak rare, so that it was very tender. of course, amazing fries
- skate: delicate and flavorful. the bite i had was delicoius
- seared sea scallops: i should have ordered this as my app instead of the gratinee. perfectly cooked
pros:
- reservations: they were so gracious and accommodating. we changed the reservation about five times before we got there, and then ended up needed to move to another table to fit in one more person. despite all the changes they were very willing to work with us
- food: excellent french bistro food. everything i had was cooked well
- service: attentive. constantly filling our wine glasses and water glasses
cons:
- outside bathroom: i guess this is just one of those vegas hotel restaurant things, but restrooms are always located outside. kind of a drag to have to walk a bit to get to the ladies room, especially if youre seated way inside the restaurant
- price: definitely not cheap, but honestly, not that expensive either. it really depends on what you splurge on - if you get an app, if you get wine, it all adds up.... i got an app, an entree, and had two bottles (share them with three others) and got away with paying $70 - tax+tip included
would i go again? ... im not sure. while dinner was great, it wasnt crazy amazing. there are just so many other restaurants in vegas that i want to try. despite my caution about going again, i am still very glad i had dinner here.
