Very cool atmosphere outside and inside, albeit a bit noisy because the tables are close. The window wall has stunning views of the Strip and the Bellagio fountains, especially at night. Made reservations months ago and they were promptly honored. But, that's about the best I can give for this restaurant. I know it's Vegas. But $14.95 for one ordinary Tanquray & Tonic? I got the exact same drink in an identical glass in the casino downstairs for $8.50 -- free if I was playing the slots. $44.00 for 5oz of filet mignon; $46.00 for a 7oz bone-in Ribeye? And that's just the meat. $6.00 for a single portion of potatoes and mushrooms… each. So… two people, two dinners from the menu, two sides, one shared dessert, no drinks of any kind -- $144.00. Sorry, go to Del Frisco’s or Charlie Palmer’s Steakhouse. Oh, and another thing, the elegance of the restaurant and black tie staff is lost because they don’t enforce a dress code. Come on, jeans and t-shirts during dinner? Guys in tank tops at the bar? This seriously diminishes the experience. -- DD
