We went to the new LoS location the last 3 trips and the food was great. Everything was just as good as we remembered. It was mostly out of convenience because we stay at hotels clustered right by Flamingo so its a 7-10 minute drive vs the 20-25 to the OG location from that area.

warrior: sigh. e by jose andres reservations appear to be booked until february 2022. raku only takes phone reservations and they arenât answering the phone yet. partage appears to be closed for vacation when weâre visiting. lâatelier appears to be closed until january. wing lei is blocked out for big wynn casino spenders according to concierge. itâs not easy making reservations in las vegas! anyway, i canceled the picasso reservation, proving that i value FTC opinion over 10+ year old michelin stars.

We havenât tried it yet (and it wonât be the most creative cooking) but we heard very good things about Bardot Brasserie
Iâve only had Bardotâs lunch offerings. Solid stuff like Bouchon.
Warrior: somehow, after all this, we ended up with reservations at Bardot Brasserie and Michael Mina for dinner and Bouchon for brunch (which weâve been to). Michael Mina has the advantages of being open on Sunday, having a seafood-centric menu, and having a modern computerized reservation system (unlike the annoying Raku restaurants). We will report back.
warrior: some quick reports
Bardot Brasserie - Recommended. Good food, good wine list. What youâd optimistically expect.
Michael Mina - Not recommended. Fake fancy food. Not as good as Bardot Brasserie. Nowhere near Michelin star quality. The only reason Iâd eat here again is the wine list.
Banana Leaf Cafe (LV) - Recommended. Solid Singaporean / Malyasian.
Red Fort Cuisine of India (St. George UT) - Recommended. Would be among the best Indian restaurants in LA proper. Better if you order spicy because otherwise dishes tasted too sweet / not right. We went twice, and they declined to bring us Indian pickles on our first visit, perhaps thinking we wouldnât like them.
El Coyote Charro (St. George UT) - Neutral. Our tacos were decent but I found the chicken too dry.
Cafe Soleil (Springdale UT) - Good base for bathrooms etc. I wouldnât really recommend the food, which was fine at best. Iâd personally prefer to eat a KIND bar. The coffee was decent.
Feel Love Cafe (Springdale) - I liked a vegan breakfast burrito here more than the food at Cafe Soleil (across the street).
