Been wanting to try this place for years and finally had the opportunity this year. Hate to say it but I was left disappointed and probably won’t be coming back. Had the prefixed menu and I have to say all the plates didn’t wow with flavors or uniqueness. For a 3 star I expected better.

Their baked in house bread and dessert was also lackluster. Bread had to be reheated and didn’t taste like fresh baked bread. Their fish was beyond salty and didn’t even finish it. Their venison tasted gamey. Dessert was also just okay.

Overall, I had high hopes for this place but was left disappointed.

An exceptional dining experience with flavors that truly stand out! Each dish was crafted with incredible attention to detail, and the butter was unforgettable—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. However, the ambiance didn’t quite meet the level of the food. The atmosphere felt a bit underwhelming for a Michelin three-star restaurant, lacking the warmth or sophistication that would enhance the dining experience. Despite this, the remarkable quality of the food made the visit worthwhile. Highly recommended for those seeking extraordinary flavors, even if the setting could use a touch more refinement.

This will be my second time coming here, and I have to say after so many years they still don't disappoint!

Most of their unique pre-set tasting menus are about a month out for reservations, but if you do want splurge, that is precisely what I recommend you getting. The amount of sheer bliss that each bite gives you is beyond anything you can imagine.

We paired our menu with their premium wine tasting and it does add more to the flavors you are already experiencing.

Please be mindful that this is an extremely expensive restaurant, but worth every penny you put in as the experience is worth it. From the presentation to the taste.

The food was amazing, and they did take care of our allergies. Allergen friendly and amazing experience overall.

We have many allergies (eggs, nightshades) and the the staff and chef took amazing care of us. They went over the menu and what substitutions would be made for us while maintaining the essense of each dish.

The chef was so careful that our first dish, the cavier and crab actually used egg whites as a filter to create the gelatin as some wines traditionally utilize this process as well. We had a few bites and did have a reaction, however, the chef sent someone out to stop us and we were able to contain the reaction with an allergy pill versus if we consumed the full dish resulting in an epipen level event.

After that we did not experience any accidental consumption of allergens after. (There were minor things, such as being offered bread and Mashed potatoes but those were immediately rectified).

Why would you ask are we still rating them 5 stars in every category? The service itself was extraordinary and the restaurant took full responsibility, acknowledged their errors, and made everything right. This speaks to the fact Joel Robuchon is a world class establishment that takes pride and seriousness in not only an amazing dining experience, but the overall service and promise of a world class dining experience where food accomodation guests can feel safe dining here with no fear for their lives.

You can tell from the caliber in the food presentation, the delicious pairing of multiple flavors at an equilibrium, that this place still lives up to the three Michelin stars it had earned a decade and a half ago.

From the cauliflower mousseline, to the confit Scottish Salmon, the caramalized Iberico Pork, it was a dining adventure that was perfection and leaving us wanting to see what other energetic feats the Chef could perform.

We look forward to coming here again the next time we are in vegas, and will trust the chef and staff again. Huge shout out to the Chef, and Camille the manager the night we dined on 03/29/2025. Acknowledging the mistakes, taking corrective actions quickly, and letting us know of how certain elements weren't to their standards make us feel like valued patrons. We are so thankful for the Chef and team for taking care of us and our allergens.

So... long ago... my wife and I came here at the end of a multi-year "foody" phase. We consciously decided to overlook the Michelin star prices and get whatever we wanted to off the menu. It was an incredible experience both in terms of food, and cost. Fast forward a decade (at least) and we've returned, but this time we went with the 10-course tasting menu paired with the top tier wine tasting. Because why not? (I suggest saving up for a while if you're not fantastically wealthy. We're not.)
The return did not disappoint! Everything was perfectly prepared (as expected). The detail they go through is nearly unbelievable. If you look closely at my dessert picture, they have little ornaments hanging from the chocolate "tree". There is lobster under the caviar island. The trio of white truffle masterpieces is "Potato Salad"... sure it is. The food did NOT disappoint. IMO this place is better than anywhere else I've ever eaten, and I've eaten everywhere and everything.
The restaurant is located in the smelly load casino. Once you're inside however, you are transported. The air is perfumed, it's quiet, the lighting is perfect, and the atmosphere is flawless. It's hard to be in a bad mood in here, and because of that, everyone else you're dining with also elevate the experience.
We sat next to a young couple from West Virginia who I believe also got the tasting menu with wine pairing. They were all dressed up, and loving every minute of it (I assume). My wife left the table to freshen up before we left, and I paid the tab while she was away. She returned and I took my turn to critique the bathroom (it's great). When I got back, she (my wife) was chatting up a storm with them. The gentleman gave us a "cheers!" before we left, and my wife responded with "I have nothing to cheers with". This fella then hands her his glass, she graciously declines, and the glass ends up in my hand... The wine pairing was $1000 USD per person... If that fella ever reads this, it was everything I had not to guzzle the whole thing. You sir are diamond among us, you made the end of our night so nice, I will likely never forget it or you.
