ehhhh, ate there last nite. not really impressed, if forced to choose i would go to guy savoy 7 days a week and twice on sunday!
food tended to either be over seasoned or lack any seasoning at all, there was no happy medium. foie gras torchon was full of veins (someone needs to show the commise chef how to clean a lobe properly)
everything looked ‘pretty’ but lacked focus on the main ingredient flavor. for example a amuse bouche, foie gras parfait with parmesan foam and port reduction, all you taste is salty parmesan cheese, foie gras which should be the focus was non-existent. guess if i had eaten for free i would kiss thier ass too, but the bill for 2 was 500. so im not sucking up to anyone here!

I had the $115 menu and desserts are indeed extra – though probably not necessary as the portions for the first and second courses are substantial and the amuse is almost like an entire first course in itself. Like John, I opted for the $15 cheese cart, and was more than spleased with my selection.

This is the best restaurant I have ever eaten in, and I have eaten in some of the finest restaurants in the world. This is an incredible bargain. To see some videos of my food experiences here, go to my YouTube page. http://tinyurl.com/dyj2ky (click through to page 3 and 4)

Your description sounds a lot better than that on MGM’s web site. The $89 is listed as two courses – entree and dessert – with no mention of some of things like caviar.

Any word on why the $115 menu doesn’t list dessert among the courses?
