Andre's

The original and much-beloved Andre's, in Downtown Las Vegas, closed in 2008, but never fear -- the branch at Monte Carlo is still going strong. While it may not have the ambience, it certainly has the menu, still overseen by owner/chef Andre, who brings over 40 years of experience to the table. Much of the waitstaff is also French, and they will happily lavish attention on you and guide you through the menu.

The food presentation is exquisite, and choices change seasonally. An example might be an appetizer of Northwest smoked salmon mille-feuille with cucumber salad and sevruga caviar, or a main course of grilled veal tournedos with chive sauce, accompanied by a mushroom and foie gras crepe. You get the idea. Desserts are similarly lovely, an exotic array of rich delights. An extensive wine list (more than 900 labels) is international in scope and includes many rare vintages; consult the sommelier.
