An impeccable restaurant. With reservations a complimentary limo is sent to pick you up. You are then escorted through the MGM Mansion entrance to the restaurant. Thereby bypassing the annoying sounds and confused people on the casino floor. It is about a 10 minute walk ladies with heels. Graciously seated they know you are coming and direct you right to your table. There are a few different tasting menus available of two, four, six, and 16 at 135, 168, 215 and 385 respectively. An amuse-bouche, bread, petit fours and coffee or tea accompanies all meals. It is prudent now to discuss the bread. Served on a cart trolley there are about 2 dozen lovely varies of bread to choose from. General you take three different kinds in the beginning. Once chosen your bread is taken in the back to be warmed and whisked back to you in a moment. The butter is shaved off a block and while lovely it is cold. I dislike cold butter for bread.
The menu doesn't change too much from week to week. Changes are mainly substations based on availability. The food is excellent. There wasn't a dish I didn't care for. From plating to palette, from texture to temperature the food was excellent. Portions were a touch too large for me but I prefer smaller portions in general.
The meal closes with a petit fours trolley of four dozen or so sweets to tempt you as you swirl down the last of your wine. More decadent then the bread trolley and all the more enticing. It is an exhausting delicious list.
I nearly forgot about the booze. Yes there are the perfunctory wine pairings. They also have several available by glass, half bottle and bottle. The cocktails are available but not very good. As a cocktail dork I would suggest sticking with wine here.
Service is generous and kind. All requests are taken with earnest and if at all possible fulfilled.
Is it worth it? Absolutely. I certainly look forward to having another meal here.
