My sister brought me here for a sister's breakfast... I was skeptical; I live in Vegas, and it seems like every restaurant we have gone to on the strip, whether it be for breakfast, lunch or dinner, is overpriced for what you get. So, we went around 10 in the morning. When we walked in, we were greeted by the host. My sister has a little bit of pull when it comes to how we're treated at many of the hotels here in Vegas, so she asked the host if it would be possible to see the kictchen and talk to the chefs (she is a big fan of Thomas Keller, and although he was not there at the time, wanted to see who he has running his restaurants). So, they gave us a tour of the massive kitchen and all of the little pastry rooms. I just wanted to say that this is the CLEANEST kitchen I have ever seen (and I've seen my fair share). When we were seated, they had Bloody Mary's out on the table, with a bottle of Evian. Not two minutes went by when we were served with fruit parfaits, promptly after, they brought out a Sourdough bread braid with vanilla bean butter and cherry topping. While we were enjoying all of that, they placed a full tray of pastries on our table (chocolate croissant, bear claw, danish, etc.). We hardly had time to look at the pastries when THREE entrees were placed on our table (we only ordered two). Turns out, one of the chefs had sent out the third on the house. So, we ate poached eggs and toast, apple french toast, and sourdough waffles with strawberries... While we were eating that, one of the bartenders sent out Expresso Martinis. Absolutely everything exceeded my highest expectations for any restaurant I have ever been to. As soon as I drank a little water, there they were filling up my water glass. The ambiance was BEAUTIFUL, it was nice and full of light inside the restaurant. When we left, we gave the waitress a 50% tip, because she was such a great server. From now on, anytime someone visits, this will be my restaurant of choice.
Pros: Atmosphere, service, cleanliness
Cons: That there aren't more like it in Vegas
