This is probably the best buffet in Las Vegas. We went for the $18 lunch and ate like Frenchmen, taking 2+ hours to savor the various dishes. The stations for the different regions seem to progressively improve from right to left: Provence, Alsace, Burgundy, Brittany, and Savoie. Since I've lived in Italy, I found Provence's pasta less impressive, though the other dishes were acceptable. My husband lived in Alsace, and it seemed that the chefs aimed for a sweeter palate than the more savory traditional stuff, as in sauerkraut. Everything beyond that was simply incredible. My favorite was the beef burgundy with toasted bread triangles on top (croutons), and my husband's was the various grilled meats in Savoie. While I usually avoid cream dishes, I loved the fresh, barely cooked spinach in cream and potatoes au gratin as well. The dessert bar is equally incredible, with a lovely pear tart, creme brulee torched on the spot, mousse in a chocolate cup + desserts with no sugar. I was surprised to find the same high quality of desserts here as at the bakery (JJ's) and pastry shop (Lenotre) across the way, just in smaller servings! Fine, fine food that represents the country well.
Pros: Great food
Cons: Short wait even at 2 p.m.
