    Best Italian food I have in Vegas ! The duck confit pizza was out of this world. The cauliflower starter was full of flavors. The tuna crudo and the roasted beet salad were so delicious

    The Golden steer is a classic steakhouse in every sense of the word. It's absolutely understandable why the who's who of Old Vegas used to frequent the golden steer! Everything from the cocktails through the meal and into dessert was first rate. Love the tableside Caesar and cherries jubilee! The steak and lobster tail were excellent. It's certainly a little spendy, but for what you get I felt like it was a wonderful value for a special evening that I will not forget. This may have been my first but will not be my last visit here!

    The food and staff at Mon Ami Gabi were top notch. Service was quick, friendly and professional. The food we ordered came out quickly and was delicious. The restaurant has a cozy vibe and the outdoor seating has a front row view of the Bellagio fountains. The prices are what you would expect for fine dining on the Las Vegas Strip, overall it was a great experience and I would go again the next time I am in the area.

    We enjoyed our experience at Oscar’s. The atmosphere sitting in the glass dining room is what makes this place nice for us. The server was very nice just a bit slow for our preference. The steaks, sides, salads and lobster bisque soup all were excellent. I wouldn’t recommend the burger. For $24 it was overcooked and unimpressive. No joke an In-N-Out burger is much tastier. Lots of competition among steakhouses in Las Vegas. This is a legendary one but it’s not in our top 5 in town.

    Dining at Carson’s is a must for me when visiting Las Vegas. Have never had a bite I didn’t enjoy here. This time our party ordered the hot dog ends, pot roast sandwich and jus dip, cauliflower and NY strip. Steak was cooked perfectly. The cauliflower dish was extraordinary and packed a wonderful garlicky punch. Sipped on a wonderfully complex fernet and amaro cocktail throughout the evening as well. Rich and delicious food with unique and interesting flavour combinations. Service was attentive, warm and fun.
