This was, in all respects, a spectacular dining experience, one of the top two I've had in Vegas (the other being Craftsteak at the MGM Grand).
The room is typically over-the-top Vegas, but beautiful - festooned in gold, plush chairs, and gorgeous table accoutrements.
The service is first-rate - the waiter was attentive, all while staying in the background, and you could hardly take a sip of water without someone running over to refill your glass.
And the food was perfect. My guest and I enjoyed a perfectly prepared moo shu pork, a mind-blowing whole deep-friend Dungeness crab, and a ridiculous lobster in Szechuan (sp?) sauce. Sure, I made myself a greasy mess from picking apart crab for a half hour, but it was so worth it. To top it off, the pineapple cake I had for dessert was perfect, and the espresso was as good as any I've had at an Italian cafe.
The wine list was top-flight, offering a strong and diverse selection, with reasonably-priced options.
Of course, it was expensive - but everything in Vegas is expensive!
