Since this group is about wine, I am sure some here could recommend some
really good Vegas restaurants for French, Italian, or any food for a dining experience. Thanks for any responses. Dick |

Last night we had a great meal at Pinot Brasserie at the Venetian (http://www.patinagroup.com/pinotBrasserie/). Everyone but me had the chef's tasting menu with wine. All of the pairings were right on. The food was excellent and the wine list was extensive. A gourmet restaurant we highly recommend is Craftsteak (http://tinyurl.com/gflw9) at the MGM. The food is phenomenal and I don't know about the wine list because we always bring our own. A much more casual restaurant not to be missed is the Burger Bar (http://www.usmenuguide.com/burgerbar.htm) at the Mandalay Place. I would rather have a $20 burger there than a $50 steak somewhere else. Mon Ami Gabi (http://tinyurl.com/f9nqq) at Paris is a good choice. All restaurants above allow corkage. Last night we had plans before dinner where a bottle of wine would have been hard to deal with. We live in Las Vegas and the restaurants here are great. Fred. |

Any idea about Picasso and La Cirq at Billagio? Are they as good as the
concierge claims?

Thanks for the leads here. Will check a few out. Have been to Pinot
before. Also there used to be one in St. Helena. Last Sept I realized the closed and destroyed the building. It was one of my favorites.

hlink.net: > Any idea about Picasso and La Cirq at Billagio? Are they as good as > the concierge claims? I have eaten at both Picasso and La Cirque. They are both fantastic. Both are at the top of the price scale. If that is not an issue you won't be disappointed. There are probably better meals for the money out there. I don't know how you feel about the issue but all restaurants in Nevada are now non-smoking. It will take a while for the Mom & Pop places to comply. The big restaurants are already complying. We had a great meal at a small Italian place (Mama Jo's) and one smoker made the entire restaurant stink. Tonight we did not find anyone smoking where they shouldn't. Fred. |

Last time in Vegas I ate at the place at the top of the Eiffel Tower and had
a wonderful meal. We did the tasting menu I think 5 or 6 course paired with wine. Are Picasso or La Cirque considered much better than the that Eiffel, not the ground floor but the one up top?

I did a web search and was delighted to find that they're still there. Not very "up scale", but still a very interesting place. Do you have any opinions on Battista's? BTW: Their web site is http://www.battistaslasvegas.com/ Dick R. |

I have only heard bad things about Battista's. I have never eaten there. I heard it was great many years ago and it is relying on its reputation only. Even if it was like it said it was I wouldn't even consider it for a good meal on a visit. Fred. |
