The MOzen Bistro puts the "zen" in the Mandarin Oriental. Well, it's one of many reasons. Zen seems to ooze from every surface at this hotel.
MOzen serves up beautifully plated and high quality dishes at Vegas prices. However, the flavors and freshness are so good here that the prices seem almost reasonable compared to other places charging similar prices. I had the Caesar salad with Tandoori chicken and a couple sushi rolls, which were good but nowhere near as spectacular as the chef's tasting menu that night. My partner in crime chose this route, and I was lucky enough to try some of the items off of said menu. We started with incredible baked oysters, moved on to a roasted tomato soup, and dove into a tender veal osso bucco. The dessert was indescribably rich and decadent -- and the name of it escapes me. However, it had layers of fruit filling (like jam) in between different flavors of smooth and creamy semifreddo. Loved this restaurant with its simple and serene decor, and will certainly visit again.
