I have to take a client to dinner tonight in Las Vegas.

What are the best restaurants there? Cost is no object. Good food and atmosphere is the name of the game.

So let's hear 'em.

 

I know of a couple really good ones...but they are probably not the best place to meet clients

Have fun man!

 

No I definitely won't be taking her to those kinds of establishments.

All I want is a damn good restaurant.

 

How about French restaurant? I like Alize which located top of the Palms Casino Resort. http://www.palms.com/dining/restaurants/Alize

 

Hey Scott, we ate here...It was pretty good... http://www.carnevino.com/

 

I always liked Andre's in the Monte Carlo. It's definitely a "sleeper", but one of my favs. I've been to pretty much all of the top spots. On my most recent trip, I walked out of Fleur De Lys mid-meal, which is ironic, considering I used to go to the original in San Fran, when I lived there. It was so bad, on so many levels, even the manager couldn't argue as I made my way out without paying or leaving a tip.

Thanks everyone for the great recommendations. I ended up going to Botero at Encore yesterday and Bouchon at the Venetian tonight. Botero was quite mediocre with so so poor and poor service. Bouchon, just as it is in the Napa Valley, was amazing.

I will try out some of the recommended places on my next trip to Vegas. Most of the recommended places were on the other end of the strip from where I was staying.

I did spend a bit of time in Vegas's newest casino, the Aria at CtyCenter. Aria is beautiful and has a very different ambience than most of the other casinos -- classy and understand but very luxe. Sort of like the anti-Wynn.

 

Wow this place gets a lot of recommendations. I was no where near the Palms so it will have to be another trip.

Thanks Ryan. I was at the Venetian tonight but I just love Bouchon so I had to go. Next trip.

Calton your restaurant recommendations are dead on so this will have to go on my list. I will be spending a huge amount of time in San Diego and Las Vegas over the next several years.

 

I just read this thread, but for future reference I always suggest Delmonico's Steakhouse in the Venetian! It's one of Emeril Lagasse's restaurants, and it is AWESOME!!! Give it a try some time, you WON'T be disappointed!!
