The pan seared scallops were also very good, and the flavors of the entire dish came together nicely, with a rich veal stock and ultra smooth mashed potatoes. The lobster was sweet with just a touch of creaminess, which was nicely offset by the slightly tart vinaigrette. The Maine lobster salad was yet another well executed dish. Such a rich and flavorful explosion of flavors all in one bite! The velvety potato soup was also excellent. We absolutely loved our amuse bouche of quail egg, cucumbers, smoked salmon, and caviar. Quail egg, salmon with caviar, and a small "shooter" of velvety potato soup Bryan's rational? If a 5-course only costs an extra $10, why not just go for that? Seriously, compared to Joel Robuchon, where a 4-course menu cost us $148 last year, this seemed reasonable in comparison.

The menu only consists of prix fixe menus: a 4-course for $113 and a 5-course for $123. Moreover, the service is warm and efficient, making the overall experience quite enjoyable. The paintings and the fountains alone are beautiful and breathtaking. The dining room is quite large, yet the place still manages to maintain a romantic atmosphere. Instead, there's an understated elegance that's peaceful, relaxed, and beautiful. However, the outlandish opulence is absent. The environment is no less impressive, with lovely view of the Bellagio Fountains and huge Picasso originals ( $30 million worth!!) gracing the restaurant walls. Picasso, on the other hand, is a totally different experience. Even our 4-course meal (at $148) was plenty decadent. The craziest "Menu Degustation" is a whopping $385. We did try Joel Robuchon (the only 3-star Michelin) a little over a year ago, and found the experience to be the most over-the-top crazy opulent dining experience we'd ever had. We haven't tried the other 2-star restaurant (Guy Savoy). With the recent closing of the beloved Alex at the Wynn (according to Bryan : best seared fois gras ever), Las Vegas is down to one 3-star Michelin restaurant and two two-star Michelin restaurants. There aren't that many two or three star Michelin restaurants in Las Vegas.

Unparalleled views of the Bellagio Fountains.Įxcellent Michelin Star quality French food prepared by a very well known Spanish Chef.
